STRIKE In TWO RIVERS.

There Is strike ON in Two Rivers
among the woodworkers of the Hamil-
ton Manufacturing Company. The cause
dates back to the early part of October.
A Woodworkers' Union was organized
there with man named Wachtel as
president, an employe of the Hamilton
Company. The facts here given We're
learned from the superintendent and the
proprietors shortly after their occur
renee at that time.
Wac til got to working among the
men during working hours. The super
intenient objected and Wachtel was de-
faint He was at once discharged and
attributed his discharge to the fact that
he was connected with the union. Mr..
Kidd, secretary Of the National Union
was so informed and took up the matter
with the managers of the factory who
said they were not aware of the existence
of a union among their employees and
insubordinate d told the superintend-
ent he was dissatisfied with his job. \
request to re-instate Wachtel was most
positively denied, and matters drifted on
until Wednesday morning when 100 men
quit work.
The discharge of Wachtel was never
satisfactorily compromised. On Satur-
day last August Clair was laid off for a
time with other men. He had become
head Of the local union and his discharge
was at once attributed to that fact An
explanation was demanded and when
the men Were informed that Glars ser
vices We're not needed at present on &C
count Of lack of material. the men refus-
ed to accept the explanation and walk
out was ordered About onethird of the
men are out They say new men are
being hired every day and that lack of
work was not the cause of the discharge,
The strikers claim that Clair was
discharged because Of his connection
with the union. 1t snOt known wheth-
er the strike is local or ordered by the
National Union The Hamilton com
pany is the largest wood type factory in
the world and deals in all kinds of print
ers' supplies. Its president, j. E. Ham
ilton and owner of a majority of the
stock started i'll as laborer himself and
his first essay in the line of manufacture
ing on his own responsibility was a
scroll saw and foot power. The growth
of the factory is one Of the marvels
among industrial enterprises OF the age.
The company employs $50 men and
makes the boast that III the Is years Ill
which it has been in business it never
reduced the wages of its employees L..
J. Nash, Charles Spindler and w. D..
Richards of this city are stockholders III
the concern.
One of the workmen who did not strike
came to the city yesterday morning to
procure a warrant for the arrest of some
of the strikers who threatened him if he
should 60 to work. He was induced to
go home without procuring the warrant.

GOVERNMENT WINS CASE
END OF OLAA PUBLIC LAND
CASE.
Koran, Having obtained Patent for
His Property Can Not Take Up An
Other Tract Under the Laws.

The Supreme Court yesterday after
noon handed down decision in the
case Of L. \. Koran VS.. President
Dole and the Cabinet, i'm favor of the
defendants. This case was merely sub
mitted on briefs by agreement.
Koran owns small tract of land at
Olaa. upon which he has expended
large amount of money i'm improve
ments. A short time ago he applied
for 200 acres more under the land act
of 1895, but his application was refused.
He then submitted the matter to the
Supreme Court.
1t was pointed out that Mr. Koran
could have taken up the additional
land perhaps under a mere crown
lease. His tract was originally held in
that way, but i'm 1896 he obtained at his
own request a patent upon it, having
satisfactorily complied with the law
governing such. The court thinks that
| this rules him out so far as taking
| up the land in question is concerned.
The ruling is not as important at this
! time as it would have been prior to
| the proclamation of President Mcl[in-
! ley regarding public lands, as the pro-
| clamation itself shuts off the land from
! any occupation or transfer, at the pres
emit 1t will serve, however, if the new
! land laws are to be fashioned after the
| old, to dictate the status of a number
| Of similar claimants at Olaa. Mr.. HO-
! rams case came up some months ago.

THE GREAT LAKE TRAFFIC
MOST WONDERFUL NAVIGABLE
WATERS.
a. c. Lovekin Describes the Phenome-
nal Activity-Marine Parade Eighty
Miles Long-Navigation in Winter.

A. G. Lovekin who has just returned
from a visit to New England, tells
some interesting facts about the phe-
nomenal activity on the Great Lakes,
of which the Mainland papers have
had much to say. He travelled from
Duluth to Buffalo on the steamship
"Northland," magnificent floating
palace carrying only passengers and
their luggage, no freight whatever.
Her speed is over twenty miles an
hour
Some idea of the immense amount
of traffic on the lakes may be gained"
says Mr.. LOvekin, when | tell you
that at any time from the deck of the
Northland l could see from one to a
dozen great freight steamers. The
west has the greatest wheat crop this
year it ever produced. The lumber
mills of Duluth are running night and
day. The new iron mines of the Mes
saba range, when the iron ore in the
shape of red hematite is sCooped up
! with great steam ShOVelS, is supply
! ing the unprecedented demand for ore
made by the activity in the iron in
dustry. From Duluth is shipped wheat
! lumber and iron ore. Returning the
vessels bring coal. There are immense
numbers of tank steamers carrying oil,
great vessels with their machinery all
aft, and the forward part a great tank.
! Iron and steel vessels of the whale
| back type are numerous.
1.-TWO days after we passed the 500
| canal, Sault de st. Marie, the system
of great limestone locks connecting
Lake Superior with Lake Huron, a
coal laden steamer with its tow sunk
in the canal blocking the passage for
| three days. In that time fleets collect
ed on each side, of such numbers that
when the canal was finally cleared,
and the vessels were passed through,
kept at a distance of an eight of a
J mile apart, there was a procession
each way forty miles long. 1t was the
greatest marine procession ever seen
in the world. 1t took several days to
get them all through the canal.
There is a greater tonnage passing
Detroit now than enters or passes any
seaport in the world. The pressure for
transportation is so great that the
transportation companies have com
bned to keep the Straits of Mackinac
connecting Lakes Huron and Michigan
open all winter Great ice crushers
| will be employed to ply back and
forth, breaking the ice and preventing
it from freezing so thick that steam
vessels cannot get through. This is
something that never was dreamed of
a few years ago, and the wonder of II
may be appreciated when it is known
that in some winters the ice forms
eight and ten feet thick in the straits
and eight inches to two feet all over
the surface of Lake Michigan. Yet il
is through ice like this that it is pro-
posed to carry on navigation all win

Around the pin are arranged the gilded

At this time of the year the sidewalks
are necessarily in bad condition before
the snow is entirely removed and the
chinook has gotten in it's cleansing work
There is much that can be done in an
individual way toward keeping the side
walks and pavements of our city in such
condition that pedestrians are not
eickened by passing ever them. In As
toria and other cities there is law
against expectoratlng on these highways
and such an ordinance should be passed
in The Dalles. 1t is fairly nauseat-
ing many times to be compelled to
walk along after some consumptive or
other person has made a cuspidore of
the sidewalk. Besides, physicians tell US
that this Ia most effective way to spread
tuberculosis and other diseases broad
cast. Something should be done to COM
pei the use of the sewers or street for
such purposes, leaving the walks as
clean as possible.
On account of the i'll health of their

Our Minstrel show.

j. F. Hampshire made a flying trip to
Portland yesterday for the purpose of
procuring costumes for the minstrel
show to be <given by local talent Satur-
day night at the Vogt. While most of
them will arrive later in the week, the
reporter has been permitted to see those
to be worn by the principal characters,
and they are "beauts.'4 So handsome
Is the white velvet suit of the interlocutor
that it might put all the others in the
shade were the rest not loud enough to
make themselves seen.
The opening scene cannot fail to be
very striking if the costumes give any
idea of its appearance. In fact, the whole
performance is to be costnmed to the
queens taste.
The show opens with a. grand first
part, with N. J. Sinnott as interIocutor
and Clarke, Hampshire, Crossen and
Hollister as end men, supported by a
large chorus of our best male voices. The
jokes are all new and the musical selec-
tions the most catchy. This part closes
with '.Did you hear about Brown"
The curtain then rises on the little
mascots, Leila Kelsay and Hazel Waud,
who give song and cake walk, which le
said to be 'ttoo cute for anything"
Next comes male quartet, in cos
tune, and after short intermission the
last part opens with a tumb.-
ing act by Ballard and Kelssy. A sim
liar performance last year was considers
one of the best on the program, and is
fequally as good this year. Dawson and
Heroux will alec be seen in leger de-
main act, which lis excellent. Frank
and Crossen will appear in the dude
black-face sketch, and their reputation
| as singers assures fine turn.
Then we are to see Hampshire and
Clarke in turn which surpasses any
thing they have yet attempted. This
announcement is sufficient to pack the
house.
Baldwin's darkey band is prominent
feature of the evening, while many other
sketches, ETC., not mentioned, will be in
evidence. Not to speak of the grand
cake walk as pleasing finale.
