Strikc in 81 oline.

Seventy five grinders and polishers in
the employ of the Deere pillow works.
struck this morning because of a new rule
which went into effect this morning re-
curing the workmen to keep a record of
the names of the pieces they work on as
well as the number. The men claim that
the rule is obnoxious in that they are not
familiar with the technical terms of the
various parts which pass through. their
hands. The company finally made a
proposition TO the strikers to put q clerk
in the department to familiarize the men
with the terms of the pieces they handle.
blu. it is not known yet how the men are
disposed 10 the offer. The men in the
other departments of the factory to which
the same rule applies, have manifested no
opposition TO it.

WHY HE FELL

Louis Napoleon was a die
tator. the supreme ruler of the
French. He had. by his own
irresistible will, placed him
self over the great French
nation. He was a despot, but
held his position up to the time
of Sedan. Then he suddenly
collapsed and the man ), ho had
braved the world, and repeate-
dly risked his life in further
ance OF his schemes, became a
dotard. He died under the sur
geon's knife, and then the truth
became man fest. He was the
victime of didney trouble, and
it was this that made him weak,
Slapped his intellect, and in
dueed him to sanction war vita
Germany, and suffer defeat
afterwards His case is com
mon In every day life. 1t is
this terrible maIady that is
the cause Of half the business
failures. If the sufferers will
take heid's German Cough and
Kidney Cure, the mists that
cloud their brain and the lasti-
tude that weakens their ener-
gies will be banished. For

TRADE With THE ISLANDS
A Steady and Gratifying In
crease Shown Since Eight
Months Ago
Facts Which Speak Emphati-
cally and Show the Pro-
gress Made
Fairhaven Merchants Admon-
ished to Look Closely After
Their Trade

About ten months ago the idea OF
securing the trade of the islands, which
embrace Orcas, San Juan and other
islands of the Archipelago, was first
mootcd. The result Of the agitation
was that on the Sth Of October last
the steamer Quickstcp was chartered
by the Fairhaven Steam Navigation
company and !. 5. Richards, who had
been largely instrumental in the
organization Of the company, was APP
pointed manager.
Mr.. Richards had previously visited
the islands and talked with the people,
and enlisted their sympathies and Sc
cured promise of support. The re-
suit has been very gratifying. From
very small beginnings, and the opera
tion Of a steamboat alta loss, the trade
has grown largely until now IL is some
thing substantial and it gives promise
of "A steady increase.
A steamers manifest is pretty
good index Of the business IL Is doing.
IT speaks a tale for itself and shows
actual facts. An examination OF a
manifest of the steamer Cascade yes
| terday shows state Of affairs which
! should be altogether satisfactory 10
those interested in the enterprise and
gratifying 60 this city as being the
cntrcpot for the island trade and
traffic. This does not apply 10 freight
traffic alone but TO passenger as well.
! Nearly all the trade Of the islands
ccnters here, and a glance at the
steamers manifest shows that gOOdly
quantity Of goods from Fairhayen
/ merchants are consigned 10 Orcas
island people. Manager Richards has
been ndcfatigablc in his endeavors To
build up this trade, and 10 is one which
! Is the sinews and the blood Of trade.
1t is legitimate and healthy and "A

MAKING GOOD PROGRESS
The Street Railway Company Pushing
Work Rapidly

The street railway is lengthening
very rapidly. A weeks work has add
ed very materially to the amount Of
track laid, and yesterday evening it
had reached the inter section Of Thir-
teenth street with Front Fifteen
hundred feet was laid during the past
six days, and at this rate of progress
it will not be many weeks before Fair
haven has the best line Of street rail
way on the coast That is what il will
be. There is nothing cheap In CON
nection with the work being done.
Everything is being built substan-
TALLY, and the rOadbcd is being built
not for temporary uses, but for time
| to come. The tearing up Of the planks
and reDlanking is work Of consider
able magnitude and adds materially to
! the cost Of construction. The streets
Of Fairhaycn are generally planked
with 4x4 timber, and this fact alone
| increases the amount Of labor very
much over an ordinary piece Of plank
| ing. However, the company is over
coming all difficulties, and the result
is as fine a looking track as can any
where be seen.

the city In the city, 50 far as IL is pos
sible to do 50. But if have to pay a
much higher price in Fairhaven for an

it for elsewhere, it is "A great strain on

chants wish to control the trade Of
this city, the must compete, at least
in a measure, with Seattle and Tacoma
merchants. They must offer the pHr-
chasers here as good inducements as
| they can obtain elsewhere. There
should be reciprocity on both sides"
Fairhavcn merchants are entGrpris
ing and fully up to the times; at the
same time, there is food for reflection

merchants should be patrOnized by

representative of the HERALD, who
learned the errand which brought the
gentleman to the city. He stated that
upon reliable information he had
learned that in the vicinity of Fair
haven there were deposits of the finest
quality Of cfays, including fire and pot
terry clay. Mr.. Peters examined the
specimens from Point Roberts and
pronounced them most excellent for
terra Gotta, drain tile and pressed
brick, and with proper combination
with other ingredients would make

good. Mr.. Il. w. Benson, Of this city,

for clay which they desire to transport
