He lald stress on the fact that th year the association had made effort directly to force a union In all the plants of the combine, for the reason that it was thought best to have that movement origi- nate and be carried on awong the work men in the mills. Since last year, how- ever, & new condition confronted the union men. The officials of the various companies had plalnly indicated, he that they are working on a pollcy for operating their non-unfon plants in preference to the union mills and only working the latter when it is absolutely necessary. This plan, he declared, is forcing the union men to desert the order to get work. The tdle mills being unfon and the unlon men being rend- ered poverty stricken as the price for belng members of the organization means elther that the Amalgamated association is £OINg to be dishanded soon or else the non- unfon mills will have to be made unlon so that equal justice will be given to all, It was a matter of lite and death for the | Amalgamated assoclation that the non- | union mills be done away with, President Shaffer sald Stary w Tin of no sald ton or Surre 5 | The alleged the American Sheet Meally ving the Meadow mills in Sc agreement mand made by that be left out of the future was taken as an indication of what the general plan of the company n dealing with the Amalgamated assoclation 1t meant, he sald, slow starvation or else complete surrender to the company and the giving uf of all rights to organized unfons fn thelr pli In reply to the methods adop: el company employes lale into laborated on by in pr of the Ol A non-union and the ¢ that the entirely in was y company scal statements of President Shaffer, the officers of the various com panies present gave an outline of their position.

Kittredge, who is appointed by | Governor Herried to fill the vacancy In the | United Statcs senate caused by the death of James H.

The new senator was born March 28 in Cheshire county, New Hampshire. carly education was obtained in the | | public sciiools and by private tutor. When | 17 years of age he entered Yale university, | | graduating from that famous institution In | I He then commenced the etudy of law in the office of Jidge Veasey at Ru! land, Vt, afterwards study in the law office of Bachelder & Faulkner of the place. The study of the law was continued until | 1854, when he entered the Yale law school, | from which he graduated in the epring of | | 1885, In June of the same year he was ad- | | mitted to the bar by the supreme court of Connecticut. After reaching this geal te declded to take Horace Greeley's advice | and go west. He arrived in Sloux Falls in 1885 and locked about for an opening for the practice of his profeesion. During this timo he was frequently seen about the office of ‘he Stoux Falls Dally Press, then a re- | publiean paper, he showing a lking for the newspaper businese. Takes Up Newspaper Work, During this time and after opening a | modest iittle law office he, while awaiting the appearance of clients, employed a por- | tion of bis lefsure time by acting ae the Sfoux Falls correspondent =f the St. Paul Ploneer Press. Subsequently he entered into opartnership with C. H. Winsor, then one of the leading attorneys of Sloux Falls, and practiced his profession. The firm was very successful. The partnership existed | untll October, 1805, when Mr. Winsor, who returned to Sioux Falls a year or two ago, removed to New York City. Almost from his first appearance in Stoux | | Falls Kittredge took an active interest in politics. R. F. Pettigrew, ex-senator from | South Dakota, was then In the helght cf his popularity with the republicans of he | state. The silent and shrewd young lawyer soon attracted his attention, and it was not | 1ong before Kittredge was Pettigrew's chief leutenant. When a county or state convens tion was to be manipulated In the interest of Pettigrew and his friends, it was Kitt- redge who was sent to eet the pins and see that the wishes of the leader of the repub- lican party were carried out to the letter. Kittredge occupied the position of Petti- grew's chief lleutenant and righthand man urtil the spring of 1306, when the free sllver wave swept over the state. Petti- grew and many of his immediate followers inzugurated an energetic campatgn having for its purpese the arraying of the repub- 1i:an organization of the state on the side of the free coinage of silver, notwithstand- ing that there appeared little question that the approaching national convention at St | Loufs would declare for the gold standard Brenks with r the New i | | Pettigrew. Kittredge then broke with Pettigrew and naturally became the leader of the anti- | Pottigrew and anti-free silver republicans Here 1t might be stated that as a slight reward for his services to Pettigrew in the early campalen Kittredge was In 1889 lected to the state senate, belng re-elected in 1801 At the republican natlonal con- ventions of 1892 and 1898 he was elected | s the South Dakota member of the repub- lican national committ He finally re- signed the place and had Charles N. Her- ried—the governor who has juet advanced Mr. Kittredge to the highest place in the gIft of the people of the state—fill out his | term on the national committee. Afte= the break between Pettigrew and Kittredge a battle of glants for control of the delegation from this (Minnehaha) county to the state convention at Huron, which was ealled for the purpose of clect- ing delegates to represent South Dakota in the ratlonal convention at St. Louls, | then ensued. The lenders of hoth factions resided here and both made it & personal fight for cortrol of the county. At that time Pettigrew was still very popular with the republicans of the county and state and as comparatively few of his | followers at that time believed that he contemplated his subsequent “bolting” of the St. Louls convention, he was enabled to win an overwhelming victory, electing all but four or five of the delegates to the county convention. The struggle will be memorable in the political history of the state and county. So bitter was the feel- Ing between the factions that familles were divided and life-long friends became toes Kittredge, however, ventrolled the Huron conventlon, which, morc as a mark of re- spect to the office he held than from per- sonal reasone. elected Pettigrew one of the delegates to the St. Louis convention.

This lat- ter move would speedily ralse 50,000 The board ot control will continue to in- tigate the affairs of the endowment rank pursuant to resolutions adopted terday. The only immediate action which will be taken will be the some foreclosure suits in an endeavor to rescue as much as possible of the money sald to have been carelessly luvested by . A.

The old rates were much more favorable to old men younger element lined up in favor of the change against the older elem There was an even harder struggle made by men way yes- | who thought it was not fair to place all the financial burden of making up the deficlt caused by bad administration on the policy holders. The men who took this view pointed out that the endowment rank was incorporated {n the name of the supreme lodge of the Knights of Pythias and wus controlled by it. They sald that Mr. Hin- sey was an officer appointed by the Pyth- tan order and not by the policyholders and that, consequently, the whole order should bear the losses caused by him and that a uniform assessment on all Pythians should be levied to make it good Final action of the supreme lodge was practically unanimo s for the higher rates, which place the who's burden on members of the endowment rang, only four delegates By a compromise was ordered that s were paid off and agreement, however, when the old death 1o it | a surplus began to accumulate, the board of control should have authority regular monthly assessment as possible To place itself on rezord as responsible for all debts of the endowment rank, the su- premo lodge passed the following reso- lution, offered by Charles A.

I, July 11.—Columbla won today's race fn fine shape, with Con- stitution second and Independence & markably good third. The Boston boat sailed an exciting race with the two Herreschofts and led Constitution at the outer mark, only to be beaten by It a little over two minutes at the finish befora the wind The breeze today was much stronger than on previous days and Independence salled the ffteen miles to windward with- out its jibtopsail and seemed to hold higher, at the same time footing just as fast. The result of today's race question of the supremacy of ninety-footers uncortaln, Independence being not so slow after all, while Con- stitution has yet to prove its unquestioned superiority to the other two in anything but light mirs. The hopes of the Boston contingent have therefore gone up with o bound and tonight the experts are trying to figure what Independence will do when 1t blows still & little harder. Ruce s Highly Exciting, leaves the the three The race itself was highly exciting, espe- elally when a little less than an hour after the start Independence, by keeping near the Narragansett shore, forced Constitution about and for & few minutes was the lead ing boat in the race. From that polnt to the turning buoy the fight between the two new yachts w one of the closest of contests, in fact, the closest seen here tn_yen With the mark about elght miles dead to windward the two flyors battled for the lead. Three times did the Herreschoft yacht attempt to cross the bow of the Crowninshield boat, only to be beaten back. Independence kept Constitution | right under its lee and was able to malo. | tain this commanding position through the | speed and pointing ability of the Boston boat, even with less sall, the Herreschoft boat carrying, as usual, its baby jibtop- all. ' On and on safled the rivals, the hull of Independence being always on the sunny 8ido of the Bristol yacht. Barr Eludes the Rivals, While they battled, however, Captain | Barr of Columbia saw his chance and took | advantage of this contest betwoen the | other two yachts to elip on to windward and he thus reached the mark nearly four minutes ahead Astern of him were Independence and Constitution, each striving for the buoy | the Boston boat giving blow for blow and | It for Ift in every case and finally swing | ing round with Constitution’s bowsprit | right over its taffrall. Two brief seconds | after Constitution also turned. | Last Saturday Covstitution beat Inde- | pendence nearly an hour to the outer mark | On Monday the Herreschoff yacht was forty | minutes ahead in the ten-mile beat to tho | windward mark. On the run home both the Herreschoft boats pulled away from Independence, but the galn wae compara- tively small and not at all discouraging to | the followers of the Boston yacht. In One, Two, Three Quick Order. Shrouded In & dense canopy of Columbta swept across the finish line. Three minutes and forty-two seconds after came Constitution.

NEWPORT, R. L, July 11.—There was al- most the Joy of victory on Independence tonight. The remarkable improvement in | the speed qualities of the boat has glven ! all hands new hope. Captain Haff, who has | never lest confidence, sald today that after Independence has heen properly tuned up | it can beat elther of the other hoats in any kind of wind He further said it had not yet been thoroughly tried out. The present serles of races has glven opportunity to find out what matter. But the captain sald faults have become known there has beon no time to remedy them. All the sails, speclally the head sall, are bagging badly and the sallmaker has had no time to tighten them. An entire new set of head salls 1s now helng made. Independence salled today less ballast than in the last two races. Captain Haff also sald tonight he could huve forced both Columbla and Constitution about It he had the right of way, Instead of tacking under their lee, he bore away and went astern There 18 the best of feeling and a healthy spirit of rivalry among the crews.
