Thinas to Teach Child.

Teach the children to help In max
Ing and keeping the house attractive,
says Mothers Magazine. Needless
marring and scratching of furniture
means money and labor expended
needlessly. IL children are taught
how to make small repairs. they will
be interested in the condition OF the
house. The saving OF fuel and light
should be taught. The careless use OF
fuel is exactly the same as burning
money. Show them why they leave
the room. and teach them TO use the
gas or oil stove economically. When
the boy is old enough TO tend the fur
mace, show him how TO take care Of
It properly. He will be interested in
the saving OF coal. The amount saved
by the more careful use of light and
fuel might well be invested In some
thing for the benefit of the whole fam

1ve Aabors Labor Owned Paper Scores Strike Leaders for
Calling Them Out After Thought Better Than Fore Thought

situation even before the Strike was
called, and had it not been for the
delusion of r. A. Henning that ne
could force the Steel Trust to eat
out of his hands and elevate himself
to position of national union lead
ership thereby, the local shopmen
would be in the same position as the
four brotherhoods locally, who
through their conservative and Vis-
toned leadership have avoided an
open break with the Steel Trust
whose policy as to the recognition
Of outside union leadership is de-
fined by the New York heads.
Blame Henning.
Had it not been for Henning, who
made it a point to be at Two Har-
bors on the might of June 80, to see
that the boys went out here it is
probable that local leaders would
have taken the same course as the
four brotherhoods and, accepted Mr.
Houses promise which he has al
ways kept with the former; that he
would give as. good conditions as
were enjoyed anywhere in this ter
ritory. The Iron Range could have
been exempted from the strike order
to avoid an issue with the octopus
which has defeated every union up
to this time with which it has gone
to battle.
THE action might not have been
right from a general principle, but
il the shop crafts were right in TAX
ing the staLd they did the four
brotherhoods have been wrong for
the past Is years and arc wrong now
in having negotiated scale for
themselves without regard, for what
the labor board ould rule for them.
\ c~-ious Charge.
ut is patent that Mr.. Henning
knew for some time that there
would be 9 separate agreement
which would mean defeat to Two
9Iarbors shcomen, but he did not
give them the benefit of his inform
alton in order that they might bet
ter salvage the wreck, and he hasn't
hindered local men with his presence
since the crash.
ITO the best informed in railroad
circles in Two Harbors the local
shopmen arc the victims of the am
bition of Henning to advance himself
to national union leadership because
he thought, with the backing ST ,the
remainder of the roads IN the United
States, he could bring the Steel
Trust to it's knees; whereas,eve had
all the roads come to terms Jewell
would not have dared to hold them
in line for week after victory had
been assured for all but a thousand
men.
HE certainly would have been a
fool to have jeopardized Lis victory
when victory could be assured by
the sacrifice of the comparatively
few on the Iron Range and the
Messabi railroads."
