INJUNCTION FRIEND
Very Much Peeved at SEN
ator Shipstead's Utter
anceS

Boston--The Boston News Bureau
is mad clear through because the In
ternational Molders Journal printed
United States Senator Shipstead's
address on the labor injunction before
the annual convention of the Illinois
state federation of labor at Decatnr.
This spokesman for capitalists is
angry, naturally, and the speech is de-
clared "A Demagogic Utterance'
Senator Shipstead said; Govern
ment by law is government by the
people; government by injunction is
government by an autocrat."
This is the answer of the Boston
News Bureau: "Now in spirit and
fact that charge is not true, and if the
senator does not know this he ought
to know it. Yet the one thing an in
junction is presumed to do is to pre-
vent person or a group of persons
from doing an illegal thing"
The News Bureau presents a de-
fense of Senator Shipstead, while try
ing to oppose him.
1t brings out the very pointon which
labor rest its opposition to the in
junction. If law is violated by
workers, object to being at the mercy
of lawmaker, Judge and executioner,
all rolled in one.

FINE BOXING CARD
Assured for Tubercular Kid

All indications right now point to
the boxing show to be given at the
Jefferson theatre, Tuesday evening,
February 19, for the benefit of the
tubercular children's camp, going over
bigger than any like thing ever be-
fore attempted in Hamilton Even
the fighters who are to take part in
the preliminary events Of the big
show seem imbued with the spirit of
the enterprise. All have come for
ward with checks guaranteeing their
appearance in the ring the night Of
the show.
This is very unusual for, while it
is the rule that those taking part in
the main bouts are always required
to post checks which they forfeit if
they fail to appear, never is such re-
quirement made of those signed for
the preliminary bouts. But the cause
for which this event is being staged
is of such appealing nature, it seems
that it has reached all those who are
advertised to take part and they,
wishing to assure the public that the
show will be just as advertised, in
sisted on posting checks pledging
their appearance. Such checks from
all the advertised participants are
now in the hands of Jack Scheaf,
chairman of the committee in charge.
Every dollar made on the show
will go towards building a summer
camp on waterworks hill for the poor
tubercular children of the city. No

COAL OWNERS
CHEAT
Is Claim of New Jerseys
Governor Before
ROtarians

Boston-The devices of coal owners,
coal dealers and railroads to cheat
the law and the public were related by
Governor Silzer of New Jersey be-
fore the Boston Rotary club. The
speaker included coal merchants of
this city in his indictment.
Among the charges he made were.
Company coal is controlled by nine
railroad and three coal companies who
fix prices
They keep down the output so that
dealers must buy independent coal at
a premium of So per ton.
Much company coal is diverted
from the place of original shipment
to be resold as premium coal.
The anthracite business is a mon
opoly, both of ownership and opera
tion
when the Pennsylvania fair price
commission was in operation it pro-
hibited the expectation of coal except
at certain price," said Governor
Silzer. "The companies complied
with that regulation and sent coal, at
the price of $1050 fob. the miners
to Massachusetts.
Before doing so, however, they
made secret agreement with the

make them rebate. The coal was
sold by the Boston wholesaler fol
$3.50 ton, of which he retained sc
cents andrebated $3.50 to the Phila.

not be possible to buy coal direct from

pointing to organized taxi drivers as

they secured union shop agreement

have now negotiated new agree

etts found it impossible"
Governor Silzer said there was no
real separation of the railroads from
the mines, as shown by the federal
fact-finding report. Hence, instead of
sending coal where it is needed, it is
diverted at times because of long
haul and greater return to the rail-
roads.

NEW IMMIGRATION
BILL

Restriction of immigration on a
basis of per cent of the foreign
citizens of each country here in 1880,
has been voted by the house immigra-
tion committee.
The provision for admission also Of
2 per cent of the blood relatives of
citizens now here was rejected. The
committee agreed to unrestricted en-
try of the wives or husbands of citi-
zens, their children under 18 years of
age and their mothers and fathers
over 55 years of age.
The present law, which expires on
June 80, restricts immigration to 8
per cent of the foreign-born of each
nation here in 1910. The restriction
just voted by the committee would
cut by more than half the present
quotas of many countries, especially

These are practically the finest to
be found anywhere. Minnesota pro-
| duces one fourth of all the iron
ores that are being extracted in the
entire world. But what of the
time, not far distant, when these
are gone? In a recent booklet dis
Superior iron ore deposits, Edward
| cussing the future of the Lake
w. Davis, superintendent of the Ex-
pertinent Station, has pointed out
that low-grade ores must be made
disable before the high grade ores
are gone. The new material must
be increasingly developed and en-
couraged as the supply of the old
declines. Unless the low-grade ores
are ready for use long before the
rich ores are exhausted, mining
companies will lose interest in the
Minnesota field, will remove their
attention to other deposits. If this
were to happen, no power on earth
could lure them back to the Mime
sofa low-grade ores, once they were
established elsewhere
"There IS so much difference be-
tween the preparation of high-grade
ores for smelling and the beneficial
ton of low-grade ores, also prepar-
atory to smelling, that the two are
really different industries. Those
who are most conversant with the
problems point out that if the state
is to enjoy wealth in low grade ores
after the high grade are gone, a
start must be made at once in the
encouragement of the industry that
is to mean SO much in the future.
''As long as Minnesota's deposits
of iron ore are productive, mining
will bear its considerable share of
the state tax burden. The longer
mining of Minnesota ore continues,
the longer will this share of the
taxes be held up from the shoulders
of agriculture and other business.
The mining companies are certain
to provide their share of the taxes as
long as the rich ores last, but it is
far less certain that this source of
revenue, of employment, and of
business and developmental activity
will continue once more there is
nothing left but the low-grade ores.
It is to help this industry get on its
feet and reach basis of perman-
ence and strength that present ex-
periments, both by the Minnesota
School of Mines and by several pri-
vate concerns, are being carried on"
