A movement OF no little import
ance to the advancement OF educa-
ton In Montpelier. was the forma-
tion OF a parent-teachers association
In this city, which took place at q

in the community, and the time was
considered ripe for the perfection
OF an association OF parents and
teachers in order that the welfare
OF the city's educational system may
function to the full knowledge OF the
parents.
The people of the city showed
their interest In the movement by

PAYMENT FOR 1920
WOOL RECEIVED

Eastern financial conditions ara
fast improving, which Is indicated
locally by the receipt OF the first
payments on 1890 wool that has been
stored In Chicago warehouses since
that year Last week sneepmen in
this section received part, IL not COM
pleta payment for their wool clip
produced two years ago 1t was due
to the stringent financial conditions
and a low market that this money
was not forthcoming sooner, so local
bankers are of the belief that the
payment OF this wool money is q
strong indication OF better financial
conditions tho country over.
The prices received for the wool
ware as high as rs cents q pound,
!, which at this time Ii considered good.
The livestock industry Is fast COM
ing into its own after a depression
that has been hard one for thoae
engaged in the business to Withstand.
The prospects for the sheep industry
are particularly encouraging, and II
In believed that cattle will follow
sheep in this respect.
| At this very time there are two
outside wool buyers in Bear Lake
county who are in the market for
wool and hides. As soon as the mar.
ket atiffens up a bit on these articles
large quantities viii doubtless b.
moved which will result In placing
much money IN circulation.

This morning Mrs. Clifford (TipI
Toomer had the novel experience of
being awakened by the explosion of
the water jacket in the range at
their furnished quarters in the Lee
Pead home on South Ninth street.
The explosion practically wrecked
the range and blew out all the win

room. Freezing as the cause of the
accident. It appears that Mr., Toom-
er built a fire in the range then went
to the garage. Mrs Toomer being
in bed at the time perhaps saved hel
from serious injury.

UNION MEN HELP
 NON-UNIONISTS BY
 BUYING PRODUCTS
Reports to Trades Council Show Why Dealers Ignore Label
 Appeals.

At almost every meeting of the Trades Council delegates report that members of affiliated locals are patronizing non-union establishments or buying non-union goods. Although the alleged offenders are not named the charge that there are such is sel- dom challenged, for it seems to be common knowledge in the council that many members of organized la bor are guilty of this practice. Nor is this knowledge confined to mem bers of organized labor, for ire quently when union committees visit merchants to endeavor to persuade them to discontinue the sale of non union products, they are informed that union men are among those who regularly buy them and that they fail to see why they should refuse to sell merchandise that is demanded by the public generally and by certain union men in particular
 It must be obvious that 1t Is inn possible for one or two agents of or ganized labor to convince a dealer that he ought to discontinue the sale of an article merely because 1t is non-

In addition to protecting the king Lord Chancellor, through his injunctions | prevented the rapaCious and laWleSs from seizing the land and property of others
 and also protected the poor from arbi-
 trary or unjust applications of the con- | mon or the statutory law.
 Lord Chancellor Ellsmere, who served
 under Queen Elizabeth, said, in describ- ing his court and its functions Tt is the refuge of the poor and af- hicted. It IS the altar and sanctuary for such as against the might of rich men
 and the countenance of great men can not maintain the goodness of their cause and the truth of their title"
 It is evident from what this Lord
 Chancellor says that one of the responsi-
 bilities resting upon him was that of pro- tecting the poor and afflicted from the aggressions of the greedy and power full.
 That it was a court to which the op- pressed could go for relief when this was not accorded them by the common or
 statutory law
 The great power which was vested i'll
 the chancellors hands, like great power vested in any individual, led to abuses. Litigants found that many chancel1ors would accept presents or bribes which
 undoubtedly influenced their refusal to issue, or their issuance of injunctions | Not only that, but the chancellors were governed largely by the Roman law
 while the early English courts were gov
 erned by the common law. And, in ad-
 dition, there arose a conflict of authority
 and interest between the courts of com
 mon law and the court of equity Ir
 this struggle the lawyers were practically
 unanimous in their support of the com
 mon law judges.
 It IS advisable that we should examine / the development of courts of equity ir England little farther in another
 article before taking up the question of he courts of equity and the injunctions
 they have issued affecting labor in the , United States.

ONE SAD LESSON IS

Unmindfu1 of Disaster to Strike In surance Scheme, Employers
 Will Try Again.

It is going 10 take more than one sad experience to convince labor-hat- ing employers of the futi!ity of strike insurance.
 Following closely upon the disastr- ous hasco of mutual and in strike breaking that Insurance Commission CT Edward H. Keating, of Maryland, is now recovering from the wreck age, after brief but spectacular ca reer of union "busting," a number of employers of Baltimore are prepar- ing to launch a successor to that ill- starred pioneer.
 About a year ago the Baltimore strike insurance plan was launched with a blare of trumpets by manu- lecturers organs. It was heralded as the weapon with which unions were to be put out of business, because, according to the prospectus, employ CTS could throw their employees out in to the street, close the factory doors and draw benefits covering their losses while they were sojourn ing care-free at their favorite pleas ure resort.
 Hundreds of employers went blithe- ly into the scheme and lost no time in putting it's efficacy to the test. Elm ploying printers especially fell easy victims to the easy-money lure and there followed veritable epidemic of strikes in the printing trades as a re- suit of violation of pledges made by the bosses.
 the rosy calculations of the promo ters. Bills for strike damages pour ed into the mutual's empty treasury until unpaid claims amounted to more than a million dollars At this june ture Commissioner Heating deemed it wise and expedient to put the con cern out of it's misery. As receiver he learned that the assets consisted literature setting forth in convincing phrases blissful state of perpetual freedom from labor troubles to em- ployers who signed on the dotted line and paid the regular assessments.
 Notwithstanding what has gone be- fore, the executives of the defunct company are going to organize anoth- CT, retaining the best features ot fhe old concern, which, according to dis coveries made by the insurance com missioner, are fat salaries and com missions allotted to the promoters.

arbitration proceedings, but the award cut their wages from SIPS to $1 an hour
 When Judge Landis was agreed upon by a majority of the building trade unions and the contractors as arbitrator in wage disputes last June, 1t was un- derstood that all controversies should be settled before February 1 of this year, so that building activities in the spring and summer would not be hampered. The meeting last Saturday was in con- for1nity with this provision. The pres ent scale expires May 31.
 President Curran, of the Building Trades Council, says there would have been no trouble had the citizens com mittee not started the open-shop cam 0aign He made this statement:
 We are not fighting the Landis award as such We are fighting vio- ation of two of the oldest principles of our crafts, rules that say no union man can work on a job with nonunion man, and that no union man can work on a job where police protection is provided We insist on working as free men. It is the open shop, such as the citizens committee is trying to establish, that we are fighting. Our differences with the contractors concerning the Landis award we want to adjust without the interference of bankers and stock brokers"
