On This
Occasion
A Few Observations On Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

The influx of foreign matches
through lowered tariffs has
caused the match factory at
Cloquet to close. Lack of a
market caused the company to
ask the men to accept wage
cut. This was refused and the
plant was shut down Saturday.
$50 employees are out Of work.
Not only do the laborers in
the match factory suffer but IN
the manufacture of the Cloquet
match, aspen, or poplar, is
used and this is supplied by the
farmers in the vicinity of the
factory. Thus the market for
wood as we'll as the labor of
$50 employees is destroyed.
The tariff issue does not mean
much to the ordinary citizen
unless it strikes home, as in this
case. This can be remedied
somewhat by refusing to buy
the foreign Junk" Insist on
American made matches and in
fact all American made goods
when you buy.

Work Begun on 338 New PWA
Projects; Two Launched in
This Vicinity.

District W. P. A. directors last week
started work on 3sa new projects to
employ 1882 more men and women
and to expend an additional s2,94l .0l8
IN federal funds, according TO Victor
Christgau, administrator The sponsors
contributions to the projects will
amount to 1895 $50
The work now has total projects Of
GIG for which Sc, 861 245 IS available
with estimated employment of 3O,838
workers.
The reports last week to Admins
traitor Christgau were to the effect that
1887 were actually at work on 30
Iprujects. OF this number l4.709 came
from relief rolls. It was expected that
Is 900 would be at work by the first Of
November and the balance to be
assigned during this month.
. Among the projects in this immediate
vicinity authorized and begun last week
was that Of street improvements in the
City Of Ely for which s17.610 has been
appropriated by the WPA and S. s91
sponsored by the city, and Winton with
$3.50 federal appropriation and spon-
sor, s33, for repairing village streets
and sidewalks
Work was to have begun last week on
the SO, 100 allotted for work in White
side Park and the Tourist camp
grounds. This work could not be
started, according to City Engineer
Somero, because not enough labor
could be certified from the relief rolls
to carry on this project in addition to
the street Improvement project
With registrations coming in and
being renewed it is expected that labor
enough will be listed to begin the park
project within a short time.

As PROPOSED
MADE CLEAR
How Funds are Collected; Who
Pays Principal; Payments
at Age Of IS.
TAX TO START IN 1887
Old Age Annuities Will Start in
1912 According to Plan
Passed by Congress.

Much interest has been aroused in
the Security Legislation passed at the
last session of Congress dealing with
old-age insurance or annuities. Many
people have not been fully aware of the
provisions OF the act which is miscalled
the "old age pension" law.
The annuities are not in any sense a
pension, but form OF insurance, with
the principal sum formed by employer
and employe sharing equally in the pay
ments into the fund
A carefully written explanation of
this law, with examples of how it will
work with people of varing incomes, was
published in the st. Paul Dispatch re-
Gently. We reproduce the same as a
matter Of information to the public
and believe it will prove of much in
terest to many persons and both the
employer and employees. The Dispatch
said:
The Tax.
Employer and employee will each pay
a tax starting at per cent of wages
in 1887 and rising to per cent in 1899.

service on vessels, casual labor not in
the course of the employers business,
