What’s the matter with the army? The yankee answer is, What’s the matter with the government? A private citizen wants a man to run a donkey engine, and when he gets him he pays him $75 a month. Uncle Sam wants a man to go to the rice beds of the Philippines, there to fight Moros and fever, and he offers him $15 a month. That’s what’s the matter with the army. It takes a lot of patriotism to make up the difference between $15 and $75 each thirty days, and that we can keep the army at 60,000 men says more than a word for the Ameri- can youth, N Last winter a bill was introduced in Congress for the increase of pay of officers and men. The President and the Secretary of War worked like men in the field to get the bill passed. Did it pass? Not a bit of it; there were too many rivers that never saw a boat and that never will see a boat to be “improved.” Over on the other side of the water, in most ofthe countries, military service is complusory. The men get a penny aday or something like it in the coin of the realm that they serve, and this habit of poor pay in Europe has hurt the Ameri- can soldier. It isn’t necessary to pay a man anything when you are forcing him to work for you and are keeping him at his work with the bayonets of his fellows. If one of the coming billion dollar Congresses will vote adequate pay to the American enlisted man the problem of desertion will be solved. The men won’tfight any better than they do now. They can’t, nor can any man, for it is not in him. When it comes to the pinch of the fight there is nothing the matter with the army. STRKERS USE FORCE Compel Men at Work on Iron Ranges to Cease Labor. BRASS BAND HEADS ONE MOB Various Mining Localities Visited by Big Delegations and All Operations Closed—Not a Ton of Ore Shipped From Duluth for a Week, : Duluth, July 2L—The members of the Western Federatlon of Miners on the Mesaba range are devoting their energles to making demonstrations of thelr strength and forcing the men still at work to lay down their tools. Bands of from 109 to 2,000 or 3,000 men congregate 1 march to the varjous mining ‘ons. One mob headed by a bras. .and left Virginia early in the morning and, marching to the Pettit mine near Sparta, forced 250 men employed by the Republic Iron and Steel company there to quit. They then proceeded to the Kellogg mine near Biwabik, owned by the New York Bteel company, and forced the men there to abandon work. At all the principal mining locations crowds of men congregate and. listen to inflammatory specches by the lead- ers. The ore industry now #s completely tled up and not a ton of ore has been shipped from Duluth for a week. The strike on the docks at Duluth, Two Harbors and Superfor is still unset- tled. The unions, however, are offer- ing to arbitrate. They are distinct from the Western Federation of Min- ers, JOHNSON TO INVESTIGATE. Minnesota’'s Governor 8tarts for the Iron Range. St. Paul, July 3 —Governor John- son has left for Duluth and the Iron Range to Investigate the miners’ strike situation and the possibility of violence. He goes there, he says, not 80 much in anticipation of any vio- lence and the consequent need of troops, but to see if he can be of any aid and to offer his services if needed in bringing about an amicable and peaceful adjustment of the entlre strike trouble. The determination of the governor to yisit the Iron countiry was hastened by & letter recelved from Sherift Bates of 8t. Louls county. The letter spoko of the strike, the closing of practically all the mines and the pos- sibility of violence by the idle miners. To date, Sheriff Bates wrote, there had beon no violence, but in anticipa- tion of trouble he had sworn in many deputies. In the event of any general trouble he gave it as his opinion that ho would be unable to cope with the situation and when it came the state troops would be needed. Should there be a call for troops Duluth has two companies of the Third regiment which can be assembled in an hour. In the Twin Citles there are nine companles. Altogether there are 2,000 men who could be mobilized at any point in the state. within twenty- At Home Or has your comb run away with it?

The Lake Shore railway has laid off about two-thirds of the men working on the ore docks and yards at the harbor. The Lake Shore broke its record for the amount of ore handled last week. It hauled from this city to Pittsburg 4,425 cars of ore of an average of fifty tons each. Their Demands Again Refused. Superfor, Wis,, Jvly 2L—Superin- tendent Philbin received a delegation of the Allouez ore dock strikers after being assured that they did not repre- sent the Western Federation of Min- ers. He told the men their demands for increased wages would not be granted, but that after the mines re- sume the men could come back at the old scale if they desired. ON THE ENTIRE SYSTEM. 8trike of Rock Island Carmen Offi- clally Declared. Rock Island, 111, July 24.—As order has been issued by Chief Carman F. L. Bonmus calling a strike of the Car- men’s union on the entire Rock Island system. The order affects 2,400 men. According to advices received here the order has been generally obeyed. The principal shops are located at Bilvis, Il.; Chicago; Horton, Kan.; Bhawnee, Okla., and Cedar Rapids, Ia. The issue is the reinstatement of BE. A. Dunn, painter and member of the unfon at Silvis, who was discharged on an allegation that he removed his jumper and overalls before the whistle hlew. The officers of the union say that trains on the Rock Island road are not Inspected as the law requires and that ‘he matter will be called to the atten- ‘lon of the interstate commerce com- mission. Unique Birthday Celebration. New York, July 2 .—Frank Tilford of the well known firm of Park & Tilford took a unique way to celebrate his birthday. He invited 760 “little mothers,” poor girls who bear some of the burdens of their families, to take a trip to Coney island, where they were introduced to the wonders of the resort at Mr. Tilford’s expense. The celebration was a pleasing suc- sess both to Mr. Tilford and his guests. AFFECTS 30,000 WORKMEN Gigantic Movement to Establish Nine- Hour Day. Chicago, July 24.—A gigantic move- ment to establish a nine-hour workday for union machinists employed by raflroads throughout the Northwdst, which Is expected- to include black- smiths and boilermakers and embrace & total of 80,000 men, has been launched. N The plan is being backed prin- cipally by the Northwest Consolidated district of the Machinists’ union, al- though the blacksmiths and boiler- makers, who also have powerful or- ganizations, are looked to for active co-operation on behalf of their re- spective crafts. The Northwest Con- solidated district embraces all rail- roads north of the Unlon Pacific lines and west of Chicago. A demand will be made upon the railroads to malke the nine-hour day effective Sept. 1. For this purpose officials of the Ma- chinists’ union are now preparing for- mal notices to be served upon the rail- road companies at the beginning of next month, thus giving them thirty days in which to consider the plan. Among the railroads to be asked to establish the nine-hour day are the Great Northern, Northern Pacific, Oanadian Pacific, Canadian Northern, 800 llne, Minneapolis and St. Louls, lowa Central, Wisconsin Cgptral, Chi- cago and Northwestern, Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha, Chi- cago Great Western and Chicago, Mil- waukee and St. Paul.

Boise, Ida, July 2 .—Declaring Harry Orchard was a man possessed with a lust for murder—a desire to glut a disordered brain with blood of his fellow man—Attorney Richardson, continuing his plea for the life of William D. Haywood, told the jury that the defense was ready and willing to admit that Orchard accomplished the” taking off of Governor Steunen- berg in the manner described by him on the witness stand. Orchard was painted as & man who fancied there was glory in spectacular crime. Day after day opportunity was presented to him to kill Steunen- berg in comparative safety to himself, but rather than shoot a man whose glant stature, the attorney said, of- fered a target as “big as the side of a darn door,” Orchard planted a bomb and planned the deed so that it might attract the greatest amount of atten- tion. Of Orchard’s story of many of his attempts upon the lives of men said i to have been marked for death by the federation Mr. Richardson said it was the most absurd thing on the face of the earth. He declared that it would be a long time before the law would sanction a conviction on such testi- mony as has been adduced against Haywood and he pleaded with the jury not to put a halter about the neck of his client “at the behest of the Mine Owners’ association and its represen- tatives.” s In resuming his argument Mr. Rich- ardson reverted to the Bradley explo- sion in San Francisco briefly to call || attention to the testimony of a witness who sald Orchard declared “Bradley got what was coming to him and there’s a chap named Steunenberg who is going to get his.” Absolutely No Corroboration, Tracing Orchard back to Denver, where he made the second attempt on the life of Governor Peabody, Mr. Richardson declared that absolutely no corroboration had been offered to Orchard’s story of setting the bomb under the sidewalk and its failure to explode because of a coal cart driv- ing across the wire. The attorney also declared that no sufficient ex- planation had been offered as to why Orchard abandoned from time to time these attempts on the lives of Gov- ernor Peabody, Judges Goddard and Gabbert, Sherman Bell and Hearne. “Do you suppose, gentleman of the Jury,” asked Mr. Richardson, “that if & murderous ‘inner circle’ of the West- ern Federation of Miners had marked these'men for death and had hired as- sassins to do their work they would have been so easily and without ap- parent causc deterred from carrying out their design? Do you imagine they would stop until their purpose had been accomplished? “When you consider all the testimony in this case I think you will reach with me the conclusion that this man Orchard was possessed of a ‘mania to go out and kill. Sometimes his lust was greater than at others and so it was that sometimes he was strong in his purpose and sometimes wavered. His testimony shows a desultory, maniacal method of pursuing the vic- tims selected for death for some | fancled grievance against himself or || perhaps the organization to which he belonged. Why, gentleman, Vaughan, the Insurance agent who traveled with Otchard, slept with him and knew him as well as anybody could, tells you that Orchard’s talk at times made him think the men was ‘bug- house’ Orchard’s is the most absurd story on the face of the earth.” Moffatt a Friend of Haywood. Richardson ridiculed Orchard’s story as to being ordered “to get” David H. Moffatt, president of the First Na- tional bank of Denver. He declared that Haywood deposited all the funds of the federation In this bank and was & constant visitor there. “Think of that, men, and -yet this creature, covered with the slime of bis past crimes, comes here and would have you belleve that- Haywood was planning to commit murder on the man to whom he was entrusting the unds of the areanization of which he Best Food /¢ For Children ° The best food for growing children, the aged and those leading a sedentary life is DR, PRIGE'S WHEAT FLAKE CELERY Being made from the whole wheat, with! celery, it contains more of the essential constituents of the grain,, The large residue and the natural wheat contained salts, both act physically on the bowels, imparting the necessary constant stimulus.

The public is invited to call and see them deed exactly as Orchard described it. Richardson declared that Governor Bteunenberg's immense stature and the freedom with which he went Mhout the country made him a shining mark for assassination. “He could have been shot by anybody able to hit the slde of a barn door,” asserted Richardson. There was not a week of his life that he could not have been safely killed had there been a desire for his taking off in anything but a spectacular manner. I say to you that Orchard had a mania for committing crime in a way that would be sure to attract attention.” 500 Second St- Thomas ,Newby Subseribe For The Pioneer.
