The Northwestern Coal Co., locat

purveyors in fuel of all kinds. They
have buiit up a lar.e business by good
and careful management. They have
supplied some of the largest contracts
in this section and their facilities en
able them to meet the keenest com
petition as their relation with the
sources of supply are of a nature that
enables them to sell at the lowest
possible prices. Their delivery ser
vice is most prompt. The same
courteous treatment is paid to one
and all, no matter whether your or
der is a large or small one. The man
agement is liberal and fair and their
success has been most marked.
WENDELL PHILLIPS SAID.
And What He Said Union Men Should
Consider Well.
Wendell Phillips was engaged in
one of the greatest struggles for hu
man emancipation. He was one of
the greatest anti-slavery agitators.
When slavery had been wiped out, he
gave his attention to another great
emancipation movement that of ta
bor. In April, 1S72, he spoke before the
International Grand Lodge of the
Knights of St. Crispin. His words are
peculiarly applicable to tile situation
in thu country today:
"if you want power in this country;
il you want yourselves felt; if you do
not want your children to wait long
years before they have the bread on
the table they ought to have, the
leisure in their lives they ought to,
have, the opportunities in life they
ought to have; if you don't want to
wait yourselves, write on your banner,
so that every political trimmer can
read it, so that every politician, no
matter how short sighted Be may be,
enn read it: "We never forget. If
you launch the arrow of sarcasm at
labor, we never forget. If there is a
division in congress and you throw
your vote in the wrong scale, we never
forget. You may go down on your
knee.-! mid eay, "I am sorry I did not
act," and we will say, "It will avail
you in heaven, but on this side of the
grave never." So that a man, in tak
ing up the labor question, will know
he is dealing with a hair-trigger pistol
and will say, 'I am to be true to jus
tice r.rd to man; otherwise I am a
dead duck." "

Some Concessions Were Made to the
Poor Utimate Consumer.
The Payne-Aldrich tarff law Is
one of "the best tariff bills" ever
passed, says the president of the Unit
ed States. If you don't believe it, says
Hill The Big, why, examine' the free
list.
All right, let's examine it!
To begin with we find joss-sticks,
b'adder3, dried blood and horse hair!
They're all admitted free of duty.
Then there are birds' eggs, lemon
juice, turtles and junk!
Then comes bones, acorns, ashes,
zaffer, catgut, fossils, Brazilian peb
bles and oakum!
It looks as if the Aldrichites got to
gether and thought of as -many things
possible for which the ultmate con
sumer has no earthly use. Then they
slapped them all on tho free list. Div

The transfer service in any city
has much to do wtih trade and com
merce. If inferior the wheels of in
dustry are clogged and traffic, in
a business, sense, impeded. Travelers
especially find serious inconvenience
when transfer service is inadequate.
Delays, so common before, are now
done away with and a telephene call
to this company now brings a wagon
to your door and baggage no longer
worries you, or the care of your fur
niture and the storage of anything
you desire stowed away is given im
mediate and careful attention, thus
giving you a service that is without
equal. This company hauls large
freight and in total have brought the
jobs together when out of work, are
locked out together when they begin
to show a little spirit of independence;
but they never vote together. If they
would stop "scabbing" on each other
on election days' they could accom

can accomplish in a lifetime by cling

CANNOT BE EXPLAINED.
It has been proved beyond the ques
tion of a doubt that men cannot work
with profit to themselves or their em
ployers more than eight hours1 a day.
Yet big employers shut their' eyes
tightly to these scientific facts and
fight the reduction of hours that mean
more for them as well as their men,
as if they were fighting invasion of
their homes. The hatred and bitter
ness with which some employers re
sist to the last the reasonable and just
demands of fellowmen for shorter
hours, is one of the inexplicable
things in social science. Portland La
