Miss John son will appear to her Indian costume the Coal strike Board of Only it did t take so of do the arbitrating. Ithe messes. Johnson been in business at Kalvort for about two years. to that time Frank John son was the sole proprietor and com Mander in chief of the business but two years ago he took unto himself John Johnson As n partner. Every thing Ivas Lovely until six weeks ago i when the firm sold their business and i Good will. When it came to making a i settlement of Tho accounts receivable there was trouble. Each Johnson held j a different View of the matter but neither of them became so hot headed Over the matter but what to knew a Good thing he saw it. For a while it looked As if some lawyers would be obliged to take the matter in hand but friends Proi used to the contesting Johnsons that they submit the matter to arbitration. Here is where both the Johnsons no moved Good judgment. They immediately accepted Tho proposition and proc i ded to name their judges. Frank selected John grand Forks. John selected judg of Hassell. These two gentlemen according to Tho terms of the compact selected another Man. This Man was Kev. Hulsens. A better Board of arbitration could not have been gotten together anywhere. 1 Las evening the judges and the Johnsons met in the office of Nash Bros., and three hours every Man in the party was Happy. The differences had been settled to the Satis faction of All concerned. The books of the firm had been gone through every thing had Boon carefully considered and the Board had announced its decisions and the went Home in a Happy Frame of mind. The judges went Home in a Happy mood for they had done their work Well. They had set an example for the Board of arbitration to at is doing business in the Coal strike question and they had reasons to feel Happy. This unusual manner of settling a dispute is not common in this coun try but in Germany it is resorted to very often. Almost every dispute of a minor nature is submitted to the judgment of some Man or men of prominence in the Village or City and in Many of the German settlements in this country this method is used with the greatest of satisfaction. The one Point in such a. Settlement which seems to have the Best effect on All concerned is that the parties concerned go into the arbitration with a much better feeling than they do into court and the chances Are much More favourable for a peaceable settlement that is satisfactory to All concerned.
