LATEST FROM THE ARSENAL.
Seventy-Ein Men Quit Wcrk.

This afternoon reporter for THE ARGUS
called on Lieut. Shaler, who has charge of
the department relating to employees at
Rock Island Arsenal and learned from
him that the number of stone cutters on
the pay-rolls was 10, and masons 81. This
morning these men called at the office to
learn what was to be done, and after hear
ing that those who wished to go to work at
the new rates could do 50, and those who
did not would be discharged, 5 stone cut
ters and Il masons went to work. The
others were told to call tomorrow and get
their pay.
The wages heretofore paid masons were
from 81. 80 to $500 day. The new wages
are to be from 81 to 1925. The wage:

THE AUTHORIZED GOVERNMENT ORGAN.
1t Defends the Hard Treatment Of Arsenal
Employees.

The Union is never thoroughly happy
unless it is playing toady to somebody in
power. 1t says the stone cutters and ma
sons ''have reason to feel grateful to Col.
Flagler for his forbearance" 1t specifies
as follows
During the past winter and spring Col Flager
commandant of Rock Island arsenal, has kept as
many men employed the government work
he possibly could, pending the uncertainty OF fresh
appropriations.
Is there anything new in this? Where
does the 'forbearance' come in -? Gen Rod
man used to keep a good many men en-
ployed in the winter and borrow money to
pay them, trusting to future appropriations
to reimburse his own advances. He never
asked praise for it.
The government organ then proceeds to
say that Col. Flagler has been paying more
wages than were being paid at other points
(which is not true when the amount of la
Dor is considered) andit adds the following
sage conclusion.
| The rate of wages, comparatively trifin. when a
| minimum force is employed would then when a
arge forced Is employed assume a serious aspect
and Col Flagler could only pursue one cour,e and
| do his duty
That is to say ''It is excusable to dc
wrong on a small scale. Col Flagler has
not been doing his duty, but he is going to dc
it now. That is the PLAZA Saxon of what
the Union says.
And the authorized government organ
finally says:
! In order to have the disagreeable affair settled
previous to the first of july Col Flagler yesterday
notified the sione-cutters and masOns employed Iha
their wages would be reduced to-day,
And the stone cutters and masons
regard this as an arbitrary oppressive, un.
just and unfair order, compelling them to
decide on the instant whether they will
continue work at the reduced wages or try
to find more remunerative employment
Surely the United States should take no
such unfair advantage of their employees
The men should have been given 20 or 3C
days notice of the proposed reduction, and
thus have been enabled to consider their
interests and act as, in their matured Judge
ment, should be best for themselves and
those dependent on them for support
The order for reduction comes like a clap
Of thunder in a clear sky, and takes an un
fair advantage of men who might, perhaps
do better if they had fair chance. The
order is a hard and oppressive one,

WHEN ANY ANTIDOTE or remedy for any
particular class Of disease obtains a wide

1t has been a pretty well settled belief
that the delay in passing Congressionalap-
preparation bills is intentional in the ring
having charge of them, and that they are
held back to wait for bribes to put in or
emit certain items, or to reduce or increase
them. The public service is greatly iniur-
e1 by this course, and by the fact that no
appropriation is available until July l.

duence it seems to US that he might have

Then look at the appropriations for Ar

ly manner and in such a way that The
work is never fairly under way till about
the first of August-and by the last Of Dc
