Railway Organizations May Assist.

Ell PAso, Tex, Dec. 15.-District Or
ganizer N. III. Kirsch, of the Order of
Railroad Telegraphers, has arrived here
and Grand Chief Ramsay, from Vinton,
Iowa, will arrive during the day to be-
gin negotiations for the reinstatement
of the striking operators. All the diff
erent railway organizations of the
Southern Pacific held joint mass meet
ing to discuss the situation. The meet
ing was addressed by N. FL. Kirsch, of
the Order of Railroad Telegraphers, and
a very large number of the striking OPP
orators were present. During the dis
cussion men of the different organiza-
lions spoke in favor of assisting the
operators financially. Many of the men
say that if the operators go out on the
whole system, they will go out also.
The different trainmen's organizations
will be convened during the week and
will confer with the committee of the
Order of Railroad Photographers. From
the sentiment of the trainiaen, If the
operators are ordered out, every indica-
ton points to big strike on the whole
system.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1o.--An order
has been issued by Mr.. Ramsey, acting
deputy grand chief of the Order of Rail-
way Telegraphers, calling upon the
members of the organization on the en-
tire Southern Pacific system of railroad
to leave their keyes.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. M, Dec. 15.-There
is not a train dispatcher or operator
working on the Atlantic and Pacific
from Albuquerque to Mohave, Cal. The
grievance committee failed with Man
ager Gabel to have their schedule Of
wages, rules and regulations, in which
the expenses of the committee would be
about $700 per month more, accepted,
and therefore notified all Brotherhood
men here in the Santa Fe roads employ,
and if they are ordered to work Atlantic
and Pacific business they will refuse, be
discharged, and then in all probability
a general strike on the Santa Fe will be
ordered. The conductors, engineers,
firemen and brakemen called meeting
to decide which side to favor.
Texas Men May Be Drawn In.
Houston, Tex, Dec. 15.-It appears
that there is trouble brewing here and
elsewhere along the line on account of
the discharge at Deming, N. M, of two
operators who refused to handle South
ern Pacific business over their wires. A
telegram has been received here notify
ing the men that all operators on the
Atlantic and Pacific had quit work.
Fears are entertained by the officials
that the Texas operators may be drawn
into the strike.

STATE GRANTED LANDS.
Acting Governor Laughton Discusses
Legislative Action.

Acting Governor Charles e. Laughton
and Mrs. Laughton arrived in the city
yesterday and went to the Rainier hotel,
where they registered from Okanogan. Mr..
Laughton said last evening that the work
of the session had been very exhausting,
and he and Mrs. Laughton were taking a
short trip down the Sound for recreation.
In a short time he will go to his home to
spend several months: II had letter
from Governor Ferry about ten days ago."
said he,Ssand the governor then talked
rather indefinitely about returning the
first of May, but his excellency did not
then seem very hopeful.
my main regret over the work of the
session is that no bill was passed securing
to the state the granted lands. The lands
from which choice can be made are becofn-
ing scarcer every year. According to
law We must choose from some Of
the surveyed government lands; but all
the surveyed lands are taken, and squat
tiers are going into the best of the unsur-
veyed lands, SO what we do we must do
quickly. There should be a law of con-
gress enabling US to take unsurveyed lands.
I'm my message / urged immediate
action by the state legislature, and two
bills were introduced, one by Senator C.
G. Austin and the other by Representa-
tive w. f. Mckay. The Senate post
poned indefinitely the consideration of
McKay's bill, and the House postponed
Austin's, so it looked as if this bit of
jealousy would result in disaster.
ION the last day of the session urged
compromise by the passage of
both bills. An agreement was
made and the Senate passed Nc
Kay's, but the House failed to do the
same with Austin's. signed McKay's,
but it is really imperative, because it con-
tains no appropriation. So we have no
one to select the states granted lands, and
no one to take charge Of them.
This is the only subject for which
should feel like calling special session,
and shall not do it for this, in spite of
the fact that two years hence the state
will find hard work in getting lands.
What course Governor Ferry may take on
his return do not know"

AMONG TRADES UNIONS.

The Result Of winter Upon Demand
for Skilled Labor.
Union painters say that year ago there
were lis members in the union and now
there are only 100, all the others having
left the city. Most of the other unions
report similar decrease, giving for it
the same reason.
In connection with this fact Mr.. T. ].
McCorry, of the carpenters union, says
that Cuisines men who are sending East
for manufactured material for finishing or
fitting up buildings are pursuing short
sighted policy and not practicing the
doctrine the Chamber of Commerce has
been preaching.
Manufacturers say they can not posi-
bly, compete with Eastern manufacturers in
furnishing hardwood finish or fixtures, for
two reasons, viz: First, the freight rates
on the finished product are only about 6
cents per hundred higher than for the
rough material, and as all hardwood must
come from the East, the moment rough
plank is run through the planer and cut
up, the waste more than makes up for the
difference in freight. Second, wages are
higher here than East, and therefore COM
petition is out of the question so
far as home manufacturers are concerned.
Business men do not appear to be willing
to pay any more for material manufac-
tured here than they would have to pay
East with the freight added, and yet they
talk in favor Of home industries, and are
not satisfied with native timber to finish
their buildings. Is there not weak spot
somewhere ? is the question organized men
ask themselves"
The local branch of the Brotherhood of
Trainmen did not hold its regular meeting
last night as nearly all the members de-
sired to attend the Gompers lecture.
The Brotherhood Of Trainmen is the same
organization that was formerly known
as the Brotherhood of Railway Brake
men, but two years ago the name was
changed and the constitution Of the or
ganization so extended as to include con-
ductors and switchmen, as well as brake
men. The local branch has quite large
membership. The members are all en-
ployed at present, and report prospects
good for steady work the coming season.
Painters report work very brisk just
now, as large number of buildings are
being papered and calcimined, which fur
nishes work for most of the painters in the
city. If it were not for this class of work,
they say they would nearly all be idle.
Timers, sheet-iron and cornice workers
report work slack and large number of
men idle

applause. Votes of thanks to him, and to
Mr.. Cordray for the use Of the fheater,
closed the proceedings.

how "John Baker, a variety actor on the

did not refer to the well-known
comedian John Baker, stage manager of
Cort's Standard theater, in this city, who
is not the kind of man described in the
dispatch. The person referred to was w.
H. Baker, late of the Elite, of San Fran

The fine weather yesterday attracted

cable lines, the greater number taking
the latter route. 1t was scarcely warm
enough to stroll through the woods or
sit down on the shore, and the
multitude kept in motion. Some went on
excursions in steamers; others plowed the
smooth lake in rowboats, but nearly every
one went into Cort's big pavilion, which
was nearly filled all the time, though
people kept coming and going.
A troupe of Japs gave a marvellous en-

esting specialties on the stage. There
was the old familiar struggle for places on
the returning cars. Yesterday opened the
