STRIKE AT THE RAY MINE
Mexicans Demand S3 an Eight
 HOIr Shifts

The Gszstte soma time ago in de- scribiug the work at the Ray mi e, near Florence spoke of ths fact that only Mexicsns and Indians We're em- ploye1. The reason ot the employ msnE of this class of labor instead of good American miners, was because the Mexicans and Indians worked for mach lower wages than Americans would accept. Nov the Mex!csns threaten tro Ible. Up to short time sgo they were working oa ten-hour shifts fer which they received S2 day. 4 short tins ago the shifts were re- duced to eight hours, so that all could be employed while some improve ments were 5sing m ads ia the reduc- tion plant. Last Tuesday they were notifi ed that they would have 10 re- snme the ten-hour shit at which the whole band deciis1 to strike. They now demand B per day for si sht-neur shifts 9n the ssms basis aJ Am erie ,n miners are employed.
 All the Msxicsns were discharged by the company Wednesday, but they threaten trouble. They say they have provisions to last them two months and will not allow any other miners to come into the emp.
 The company has met this threat Of the .Mexlcans by declaring that the mine will remain shut dorn until the railroad from Ray to Calvin IS com pleted and the new concentratiug plant at Calvin is completed.
 It looks now ss though this English cempany would he quite willing to employ American miners before it gets through with it's fight with the Msxi- cans and Indians.

FRANKFORT. KY, Jan. 16.-The Re-

yers who are representing the Repub-

assurances from that quarter that even
should Governor Taylor and Lieutenant
Governor Marshall be unseated by the
legislature they will institute proceed

Louisville to restrain the Democratic
contestants from taking the offices, and
that a year or more will elapse before
the case can be finally decided, as it
will be carried up to the supreme court
no matter how it might be decided by
the inferior courts. Meanwhile they
say the Republicans will hold the Office.
Senator Goebel's attorney and the

there is anything in this claim, as they
insist that no federal question is in.
volved and the case. if filed, would
have no standing in the federal courts.
