States troops have a. fear of BUSH
whacking that is above their fears of
battles. The Washington regiment,
which is holding Taguig with three
companies of the Twelfth regulars, en-

The Filipinos have been massing at.

LOOKS LIKE MINERS LOSE
WARDNER IS AS QUIET AS A
COUNTRY VILLAGE.
Non-union Men Working In Bunker
Hill Mine and Force Being In
creased,-No Trouble Feared.

Wardner, Ida, April 2S.-The day
has been as quiet as a Sunday in a.
country village At the Bunker Hill
the working force is increasing and
230 men are now at work. The mine
still resembles a miniature armory, SO
far as the supply of guns is concerned,
but the armed guards of a few days
ago are not now noticeable.
The company has appealed to Cover
nor Steunenberg, and he has replied,
recommending that the dispute be re-
ferred to the state board of arbitra-
ton. 1t is thought that the company
will not assent to this: 1t is practical
ly ignoring the county officials and has
decided to place it's reliance in the
federal government, should the strikers
show any hostile intentions.
1t will base it's claim for federal in
terference on the injunction issued dur
ing the riots of 1892 by United States
Judge Beatty at Boise. 1t forever re-
strains the members of the Wardner
union from entering upon the property
or interfering with the operations of
the company, and, if necessary, United
States troops may be called in to en-
force the orders of the judge.
