SMALL FORTUNES
/. BURIED BENEATH
SOIL OF DAKOTAa
Changed Surface DiSfigureS
CIeWS to Locations of
Treasures.

BIZ United Press
KENSAL, N. D., Feb. 24.-Two
small fortunes lie buried somewhere
in this vicinity.
One consists of 100000 in
gold dust, hastily secreted as three
prospectors returning from the Mon.
tana' gold rush years ago, were pur-
sued and overtaken by Indians. The
other is the hoard of q miser who
died from the effect OF eating five
cents worth OF ice cream-the first
nickel he ever squanderod.
Many secretive expeditions, some
coming from a long distance, have
been formed, and fortune tellers
have been consulted in hopes OF find.
ing the lost gold, but, so far as is
known, there has been no success.
Old Map
The only key to the gold dust mys.
terry, a faded old map, treasured for
years In the family Bible of a resi-
dent OF this vicinity, has recently
been stolen. But before the map
was drawn by the one prospector
who survived the Indian attack,
modern farming had changed the
topography of the country and the
map proved little help.
According to the sole prospector
who survived, the three were travel.
ing down the Fort Totten trail frome
Fort Totten to Fort Seward, where
jamestown now stands.
When they saw they were pursued,
they first hid in some old rifle pits,
but later went to a lake. Hardly had
they finished hiding their treasure
when the Indians arrived and killed
two of the three. The third re.
manned in the lake the rest of the
night and then continued to Fort
Seward. He continued to his home
in Wisconsin and each year planned
to return to Dakota territory and re.
cover the fortune. On his death bed
he told friend and gave the latter
a map.
Land Changes
The friend, fearful that HIS secret
would be discovered. Travelled
through this section as n honey ped.
der. The plows Of the farmers had
leveled the rife pits. There were
other changes and the map at this
mans death was again bequeathed,
1t was shortly after the first rail
road crossed this section that the
owner of the other lost treasure
walked eight miles TO his nearest
town to celebrate the Fourth of July.
He ate a dish of ice cream to cool
himself and died before morning
The old house he live in is gone.
The stones that held it ~ have been
uprooted. Holes have been dug in
vain hope that the gold he is known
to have buried may be found.

FORCED TO TAKE

Nonunion Miners of West

The announcement from West Vir-

shortly be made affecting most Of the
nonunion miners of that field Is taken
by union miners as another great les
son In the fight now being made by
the United Mine Workers to continue
the Jacksonville wage agreement In
the organized fields. The tactics Of
the "union-busting" operators Of West
Virginia cannot be resisted by the
unorganized men and they are placed
entirely at the mercy of their en-
ployers. At the present wages being
paid these men they earn between
So to Sd a day and in addition are
subjected to sbort-weight outrages by
those who weigh the coal. Under the
unorganized rule, miners Of West vir-
ginia are compelled to accept anything
the operators offer.
Despite the injunctions and other
legal processes maintained against the
officials of the United Mine Workers
In West Virginia the work of organ
izing the miners Is proceeding. The
appeal to the United States Supreme
court of some IL rulings OF West Vir-
ginia courts and federal courts OF that
district in respect to organization

WILL YOU HELP?

From all appearances the Labor
Day outing at the Fair Grounds this
year will be the largest attended cele-
bration ever held by the Hamilton la
Dor unions. The outings have always
been big factor in the way of reve-
nue. for the central body, and the
affiliated organizations. Through the
arrangement entered into by the GEN.
trail body and the Hamilton Jockey
Club, both the races and the Labor
Day celebration will be held on the
fairgrounds that day. The only thing
that stands in the way of the central
body making a large amount of cash
on September 5th is HELP. The
Labor Day committee is taking this
means to appeal to you as a trades
unionist, to volunteer your services
Oh tNdt udy. FOT the past SeNeTdi
years a mere handful of union men
and women have worked hard to make
the outing success, and SO far have
never failed in their efforts. This
year it is going to take more help, and
if you are reading this appeal, will
you please hand in your name as one
who will help this year to make the
outing big success? WILL YOU
HELP?

WHAT'S This!
Has League of Nations Lost Leading
Friend?

Washington. - Has Hon. John H.
Clarke, former associate justice of the
United States Supreme Court, aban-
doned faith in the League of Nations ?
He resigned from the Supreme
Court to urge this cause, and now is
quoted by the Associated Press as
making this statement at a public
forum held by the University of Vir-
! ginia at Charlottesville:
Former Justice John H. Clarke
today visioned world peace achieved
by many international alliances, in
stead of single universal treaty like
the League of Nations. Mr.. Clarke
spoke on The Present Status Of the
League of Nations and said it had
been found impossible to formulate a
treaty of worldwide scope, suitable
to all nations, leading to the develop
ment of separate treaties like the Lo-
carno pact, which ultimately will
serve to establish world peace through
individual agreements between ma
tions."

UNION LABEL DRIVE
WILL COVER NATION

Washington. - The Union Label
Trades Department of the A. F. of l..
has arranged for nation wide label
campaign from August % to Septem-
Der 10. This movement will be the
most extensive yet launched by the
department and will be conducted so
that all national and international un-
ions, State Federations of Labor, CEN
tral bodies and local unions are
benefited.
In letter to trade unions, John J.
Manning, secretary Of the department,
asks that each local appoint commit
tees to aid in this movement Unions
in affliation to the department are
urged to prepare and distribute liter
ature without cost to their locals and
to central bodies. The department
will furnish literature free of cost in
unlimited quantities during the drive,
or at any other time.
Local committees will make a sur
vey Of all business in their respective
communities to ascertain the extent
of union label goods of all descrip-
tions. Firms employing members of
the building and metal trades unions
and other various callings should also
be visited in an effort to benefit these
trades.
"Do not expect two or three per-
sons to carry the whole burden of this
campaign" said Secretary Manning
"Let each member of organized labor
do something"

FLORIDA'S BLACK SPOT"

Commenting on the failure of the
Florida legislature to adopt a "mod-
ern state program for dealing with
occupational accidents" the American
Labor Legislation Review points out
that Florida holds an unenviable po-
sition as a "black spot" on the work
mems compensation map.
Florida, the most conspicuous
black spot still remaining on the
workmen's compensation map" says
the Review, "was aroused this year
sufficiently to consider an accident
compensation bill. Two measures
were introduced in the legislature
The first one met with So many OBJ
jections that here was little chance
of its adoption. When the end OF
the session drew near, the substitute
bill was introduced and many of the
serious objections raised against the
earlier bill were overcome. The
measure was reported favorably by
the committee, but was defeated in
the house, AZ to "a
Forward looking citizens of Flor
ida have the chagrin of finding their
state, in the year 1927, still unwilling
to adopt the modern plan of protec-
ton against occupational injuries
which is in effect in all the states
except fiye-all in the South. Efforts
will be continued with view to re-
moving this black spot at the next
session"

AMERICA is NO PLACE FOR
LOW WAGE INDUSTRY

Reports credited to the United
States department of labor detail the
low wages paid to the unorganized
workers in certain lines of work no
torious for their lack of organization.
1t does not require statistics to back
the assertion that wages in these
unorganized, or largely unorganized,
occupations are too low. Everyone
knows they are too low.
The marvel is that workers, so long
and so previously underpaid, con-
tinue to shun organization, with its
great material and ethical benefits.
The so-called unskilled trades have
in years past been burdened with the
inertia of an unassimilable mass of
immigrants. immigration restriction
has reduced this inertia to a point
where it is rapidly disappearing. But
the heritage of years seems still to
deaden the senses of the masses in
these occupations.
Be that as it may, the lesson of or
ganization stands out with tremen-
dous force. Where there is organiza-
ton there is at least an approxima-
tion of decent pay, and greater still
there is a sense of manhood and free
dom that makes for better life anC
better citizenship.
The Tow wage occupations are
disgrace, not only to those occupa
tions and to the management under
which they labor their tortuous way
along, but to the nation itself, ma
tion that prides itself upon it's mar
velous productivity, its inventive
ness and its general industrial pro
gressivenesS.
The victims of low wages can helI
themselves through organization il
trade unions, but the obligation t
bring these workers out of the slough
rests equally upon the management o.
those occupations and upon the whole
industrial fabric of the country.
There is a certain definite stigm;
that attaches to a low wage industr,
and the employers in that industr.
ought to be made to feel that stigma
What sort of management, what sor
of ailing genius is it that in Americ;
can starve and subdue it's worker
and still hold up it's head in this civil
ization of mechanical marvels an
productive miracles? What excus
can it offer an outraged sense of de
cency?
America is no place for low wag
industry.

HOW ABOUT NATURAL LAWS?


Trade unionists hear much about
the natural law of supply and demand
and the need to protect this law
against "agitators who would monopo-
lize the labor market"
Present financial conditions, how
ever, is causing plain talk about
bankers. They even hint that this
natural law is being violated by it's
protectors.
The nations banking is under con-
troll of the Federal Reserve System
created by congress, with the APPROVAL
of bankers.
Here is what the latest news serv-
ice, issued by the financial house of
Spencer Trask & Co., New York,
says:
"We have previously pointed out
that the operations of our banking
system has, in effect, led to what
Iamounts to artificial boarding of gold
without allowing this money to flow
freely into natural channels. Thi:
has been proving an obstacle to the
more rapid recovery of Europe ant
perhaps our banking authorities fee
that the time has now come to le
down the bars and to allow the NOR,
unrestricted flow of credit to brini
about, through the natural course o.
trade relations, an improved situa
ton in foreign countries"
If the natural course of trade rela
tions are permitted, world condition.
will improve, which eventual,
means a more permanent prosperit.
for this nation as WE'LL" this new
service says.

they have visited and they have seen
most all of them in the state. This
comment is most gratifying and ac-
cepted with much pride by all Hanil-
ton organized labor. The Riddles
Camp, as it stands today, is an organ
lied labor product: that is, so far as
the erection of the buildings and
much of the building materials and
equipment is concerned. Hamilton
union men contributed their labor
many Sundays and many hours in the
evenings during the week to construct
the buildings. They gave, and still
give, annual benefits to help pay for
the building materials and their
equipment. OF course others have
helped too, to make the camp what
it is-that would bring forth such
favorable comment from the state
health association members. Organ
| lied labor doesn't want all the credit
in fact, doesn't want any. Organized
labor feels we'll enough repaid for its
efforts in the knowledge of the great
good the camp is doing for the unfor-
tunate children it benefits. Let the
other fellow have the credit and the
glory if he so wills, but let's all of us
help to make it even better camp
