HARMONY AT Ill PAso.
Traffic Manager Babcoek Says Strike
Situation Is Critical.

O1IudLlOu ID OIlllCdl.
s. H. Babcock. traffic manager Of the
Rio Grande Western, returned yester-
day from Chicago. where he has been
in conference with other traffic man
ayers Of the western railroads. When
asked if anything had come before that
meeting of general interest to the pub
lie, he said that the principal question
affecting rates was over the new ex-
tension of the Rock Island 10 FL Paso.
This road has recently finished an ex-
tension from FL Paso to Roswell, and
by purchase has acquired other prop
critics which give the Rock Island a
direct entrance from Chicago into the
southwest.
Naturally. this road has been a dis
turbing factor upon the rates through
FL PasO. and representatives of the
western and southwestern lines which
might be affected were present at the
conference. Mr.. Babcock, the Union
Pacific and other western representa-
tives came 10 the conclusion that the
new road, which is known as the Fl
Paso & Northwestern, will not affect
rates over the roads In this part of
the west. A harmonious understand
ing was reached between the Rock ISL
and southern traffic managers. and no
trouble is anticipated over the rate
question at FL Paso.
Mr.. Babcock states that the absorb
ing topic in the east is the anthracite
coal strike of Pennsylvania 1t is the
paramount subject Of the papers in the
east between New York and Chicago.
and 1t takes up the major share of the
news columns. The situation is critical
and the temper of the people borders
on revolution. A humorous side of the
affair is that peddlers are selling scarf
pins made out of bit of coal which
they assure you with mock solemnity
are genuine black diamonds. People
buy them and wear them. These pins

POLITICIANS IN AIR.
Rumpus in sanpete Over Socialist
Ticket.


Mt. Pleasant. oct. 1o.-There Is tur-
moil here over the petition to have
a Socialist ticket placed on the official
ballot. One hundred signatures were
NEEDED and as the Socialists had only
ffN voters. Republicans and Demo-
Gratis, many of them prominent, signed
the petition as an accommodation.
When the document reached the coun-
~ commissioners an investigation into
the law showed that all signers, by
their act, had declared on oath that
they had assisted in nominating the
ticket and adopted the emblem. and
that they asked the placing of both
on the official ballot. The Republicans
promptly started a movement 10 have
the ticket Withdrawn. They were met
by a Socialist threat to throw the en-
tire SOcialistic strength TO the Demo-
Gratis If this we're done The Repub-
leans becoming frightened, ceased
their efforts, and there the matter
stands.
