Our Duty in China.

All true friends of the republic regardless
of party must admit that the administra-
TONS conduct of affairs in China has been
unexceptionable. 1t has acted with dignity,
promptness and efficiency, and our soldiers
have acquitted themselves with ability that
compares favorably with any of the allies.
istration viii not permit Itself to be intuen-
ced by the anti-imperialist Glamour to pre-
maturely recall our troops from China. We
have no desire to acquire Chinese territory,
but if we are to have any future relations
with the Chinese our duty will not have
been completed etc. until! until order and adequate
representatives and citizens in China is fully
established and the proper indemnity salts
factorily guaranteed. [Gunton's Magazine

that the capable people have right to

VIM. Miller has been resident o.
this city for many years, and has been
particularly prominent in Masonic cir

home at the comfortable residence Of the
groom, and their friends wish them
many years Of welded bliss.
One story on Uncle Billy will bear
printing. A reporter hearing of the
event met the groom yesterday and
asked him the name Of the bride. The
old gentleman opened his mouth to re
ply, but the lady's name failed to re
spond TO his mental call, and it was
only after several minutes Of desper

the name Of the lady in the case. Ions

BRICKLAYERS STRIKE
WOrkmen on New PriSOnWine
Walk Out.
Cause Was Inconvenience Arising From Closing
or Prison Gates At Certain Hours
MEN Go Back TO Work

Salem may not he up TO date in all re.
spects, bat she can have a strike once in
awhile.
This time il is strike OF the brick
layers working on the new wing of the
pententiary. There were nine Of them
working on the building for Erixson 4
Van Patton, the contractors, and they
all walked out this morning.
There is some conflict of evidence as TO
the cause Of the strike, but it seems to
arise from the fact that the hours for
opening and closing Of the gates of the
prison enclosure, interfere somewhat
with the hours Of work on the building
The outer gates are closed while the
conyicts 90 to and from their work in
the stove foundry, and the bricklayers
claim that they are put to great incon-
venience thereby.
They say that they are obliged to go
out on the 9 80 a. m. car so as to get in
before the gates are closed at o'clock
to go TO work at 1880, and this obliges
them TO get out nearly an hour earlier
than is necessary. Again at night, they
quit work at 8 80 and want to take the
car which leaves the pen at 5:45, but the
gates are closed at that time until about
three minutes after the car has gone,
obliging them TO either wait three.qusr.
ters Of an hour from the time that they
quit work or else walk to town.
This they say knocks them out of
about one hour and a half every day un.
necessarily.
On the other hand 1t is said that the
trouble arises over the refusal ot the
workmen to make up either at night or
in the morning about ten or fifteen min
utees which are lost at noon because
they are obliged to quit before the gates
close at II .55 and cannot go TO work un-
til five or ten minutes after o'clock. As
they are supposed TO work nine hours,
the contractors want them 10 make up
| this time.
! Superintendent Lee says that he was
not cognizant Of the fact that the rules Of
the prison were interfering 80 seriously
with the convenience Of the workmen,
and he could see no good reason why
some adjustment should not be made
which would avoid depriving the work.

time.
Later, the trou BILE was satisfactorily
adjusted and the men are all at work
again this afternoon.
