The arrangements have been consummated

ance so that the patrol wagon with detail OF

turned in from any Of the boxes in the cen

alarm gong has already been placed in the

with the system. the patrol wagon and police
detail may be called by the fire department
officers to attend any fire in any other por-
ton of the city, when it may be found ad-
visable to secure police protection.
For the latter a signal has been
agreed upon. This is a system which com
mends itself as practical and necessary to

Are the Pillsburys The friends of the work

Ny experience is they are no better than
they ought to be. When at the Washburn

following Christmas when at the Pillsbury

Towards spring we were charged with a
lantern each. The fact that some OF US had
lanterns Of our own made no difference; We

get.
One man protested to Geo. A. against the
measure, and was given to understand by
that gentleman most emphatically that the
matter was their business and not his.
One man looked at it in ludicrous light,
and when opportunity presented itself would
say that he understood that we were all to be
charged with q wornOut pick, shovel or wheel
barrow next pay day; that the tunnel was
finished and some one must pay for wornout
lanterns and tools.
The next winter we were cut to nine hours
a day, and some were cut in pay to boot.
The man that worked mate with was very
indignant at what he called his ego per cent

so before. He is a millwright of over %
years experience, a faithful worker, an excel

worked short time this last winter at the
Washburn c. We got full time and full pay.
When there l was informed that the men

When at the Pillsburg " Az we got time
and half for the same.
The firm that I am now working for and
have been for the last two years Qess four
weeks is much better one for me in all
respects than the Pillsburys were.
The cry that is being proclaimed through
out the city, ''Pillsburys, the friends of the
working man" is misleading, unjust to other
firms, and under existing circumstances,
contemplate.
The machine politicians and ward ''round-
ers'' may contract to deliver US as so much
merchandise, but they will find out that we
have been thinking for ourselves and will
cast our ballots in our own interest
to their discomfort, for Mayor Ames and
the city's welfare.
