turning to work. is evidenced by the
fact that every outgoing train since
Monday has carried a quota of miners
out of the city, Some Of them returned
to Finland, some went to Minnesota and
some have gone to seek employment in
other camps.
The order issued by the company last
Friday calling upon the men to return
to work on Monday morning or appear
and get their tools and pay coming to
them, had no effect on the situation.
The miners simply ignored the order.
Sheriff Potter and Under Sheriff Gebo
stationed themselves on the companys
grounds to see that no miner desiring to
return to work should be molested, and
the Miners union had George Russell,
president of the organization, James
Allison and some lesser lights Of their
number on hand to notify such miners
as might approach that there was no in
tention upon the part Of the union to
regard the notice. Very few miners put
ia appearance and such as did returned
home and no effort was made by anyone
to 90 down the incline. Most Of the
topmen came but there was nothing for
them to do and they were forced to be
a idle, whether they wanted to be or not
i Manager p'shoa met Messrs. Russell and
n Allison and had an informal talk with
them stating that in his opinion the men
had acted in boyish manner, but no
committee waited upon the management,
nor was there in fact a meeting Of the
union to consider the company's order.
The men made no effort to get their
tools and few Of them presented them
J selves that day for their pay.
The manner Of the reception OF the
order and tue fact that the miners did
/ not return to work placed them IN q
( different light with the company. Be
fore that they were considered as en-
| ployes, hut their refusal to comply with
the posted notice Of the company
changed their standing with the office.

/ company had had forbearancc enough to

do they seem to realize the fact that the
work in the Red Lodge office has kept
pace with the rapid growth of the city
and that the department doesn't reckon
With this in making provision forclerlcal
hire which is miserly pittance and has
not been increased to anything like a
Commensurate sum; neither can the al
lowance, in the nature Of things, be in
creased. This allowance is based simply
on the number Of pieces Of ordinary mail
matter passing through the office that
which comes off the train and goes out
by stage or comes in by stage and goes
out by train III arriving at this allow
ance no account is taken Of the mail that
either originates here or comes in to be
distributed. No notice is taken by the
department Of the amount OF registry OF
money order business transacted in pro
viding for clerical assistance. While 1t
is fact that the work in the office has
trebled within the past three years, the
department compels the postmaster to
either hire additional clerks and pay
them out ct his own pocket or else get
along with half Il man. 1t may not be
generally known, but tits d fact never
theless that this great government has
the Red Lodge postmaster practically
peonized to the postoftice department
Tt is fact that the allowance for clerk
hire doesn't amount to enough to pay
half the salary of one clerk, whereas twe
clerks are constantly employed in thu
|soffice in addition to the postmaster him
|lself.

INCREASED BUSINESS.
Red Lodge Postoffice Has Troubles Of Its Own
That Are Not Generally Known.

Few people have any sort of adequate
conception of the immense amount OF
work connected with the average post
office. Here in Red Lodge, for instance,

ity under the sun crowd into the build
ing during mail distribution time, and
the more ignorant and illiterate the fel-
low the more he raves and rails at the
postmaster and the clerks and the de
partment These recalcitrants don't
seem to take time to consider the fact
that the entire postofice force is kept
jumping from morning till nigh: in their
efforts to accommodate the public and ex
pedite the distribution Of the vast quan-
tity Of mail that arrives daily. They
don't stop to reflect on the unfavorable
and exasperating conditions that prevail

MINERS ARD STILL idle
-
Resembling Of Welsh's Man-Trip Order
Leaves Situation as Yet
Unchanged.
MEN ARE READYTO WORK
But Receive Information That There Fail
ure to Return to the Mine Monday
Initiates Against Them.

The situation at the Rocky Fork mine
today holds out no encouragement for !,
near settlement Of the trouble existing
between management and miners. Last
Monday the company was ready to re-
sumo and the miners weren't: today the
miners are ready to resume butthe com
pany isn't.
The committee which the Miners
union sent to Helena and the members
Of which were successful in having the
Welsh man-trip order rcscinded return
cd home on yesterdays train After
placing their report before the union
they presented it to Manager O'Shea,
The committee stated to the local man
agement that Inspector Welsh had IT,
scinded his order and asked il the men
might return to work without discrmln-
alton. Manager O'Shea told them the
company had been ready at any time to
but on the man trips provided Inspector
Welsh countcrmandcd his order but
that the men NY not returning to work
Monday had placed themselves in oppo-
sition to the company'S interests and all
indiscriminatcly were in the same boX,
so far as the company was concerned.
/, He told the committee that the question
of the mems return would now BE- passed
upon at the st. Paul Office Of the North
ern Pacific railroad.
From indications it would look as i
the company did not intend that the
nrcsent force of miners shall be reem-
ployed. On Tuesday all miners occupy
ing company houses were notified to va,
cate them within the thirty day limit
which would indicate that the company
a desires to use thcm for other miners
That, coupled with the fact that tn
management IS free in the expression
that the company has become tired
the mems going out each spring and ty
, ing up the mine leads to the belief gen
orally expressed upon the streets tina
the company will in the end and at tn
/ time put in completely newly organ
ized force Of miners. That some OF Tn
, men take the same view Of the situation
or at least have little hope OF soon "

Local Capitalists Will Hang to Placer
Mining Proposition Another
Season.
1000 FOR PROSPECTING
Helena Engineer Will Have Charge Of
Work and Keystone Drill Will
Be Used,

Local capitalists, who, for the past few
seasons, have prosecuted placer work on
the Clarke Fork in Wyoming, close to
the Montana line, will continue the work
this season and with the hope that the
right kind Of dredge work will be done
to make the proposition paying one.
Henry Rosetta returned the first OF
the week from the fields and he and the
other local men interested are sanguine
of unusual success the coming summer.
The company still owns seven miles
along the stream at a point where the
placer work has been prosecuted with
more or less diligence ever since the 70,
gion became known and they have sue
ceeded in getting control Of three more
miles. L, 2. Sichler was recently sue
cessful in securing the services Of a
dredging company Of Helena, Of which
w. Dickenson is manager, to 60 ahead
with the work this summer. The dredg-
ing company ~ to put in Keystone
drill and will expend at least $4,000 in
prospecting.
The local men who arc standing by
the Clarke Fork proposition believe that
they have not as yet had a fair return
from the placer work. Heretofore cen
trifugal dredge has been used and be-
cause Of the rocky formation that kind
Of dredge has proved impracticable, IT,
asmuch as the suction brings the boul-
ders up il such quantities that they r.
terfere with getting pay dirt. With the
new dredge to be used it is believed that
the fields will make good showing this
season and that the local investors, eigh'
in number, will get a good return fo
their patience in staying by the propo
, sition. 1t has been demonstrated TO
many years that fine quality Of gole
is in the bed Of the stream and the onl.
difficulty has been to successfully brns
it to the light.

HARD ON HARDIN.
Barber Gets Black Eye and No Revenge In
Court

Court.
Joe Hardin and miner by the name
of Dan Berger got into an alteration in
Rees Davis place of business last Fri-
day afternoon and as a result Joe wore
black eye over Sunday and had Berger
arrested. The trial of the case came up
before Magistrate Grandstrom last Mon
day morning. Several witnesses went
upon the stand for the defense, but the
barber neither had witnesses nor an attor
ney for his side Of the case, outside OF
himself. The trouble which led to the
alteration grew out Of Hardin going
to Davis office and taking exception to
report made from the Labor union to
to the Miners union that Hardin was
conducting ,'scab' shop. He and
Davis had some words and Berger, who
was in the shop at the time, struck
Hardin in the eye. They clinched and
there was lively scrap for minute,
when Hardin withdrew. On the trial
of the case Berger testified that he struck
Hardin to protect Davis and that Hard
| in had his finger under Davis nose when
he commenced hostilitles ''to protect an
old, gray haired man." Hardin's side of
the story was that Berger ran from the
rear of the room and struck him with a
hook blow over the shoulder. Reese
Davis testified that Hardin called him
names. Magistrate Grandstrom found
Berger not guilty on the assault and
battery charge and tried to assess tht
costs up to the barber. but the case wa:
finally fixed up without Joe being as
sessed.

Tt is reaettabe fact Of which everyone interested should
take cognzance Red Lodge both at home and abroad is &C.
quiring the unervia reputation of being what known as

miners arc what may termed ostreperous and preis"sed
to look for controversies and foment llscorh
While such impressions may be in measure unoulled,
the evil they work is far reaching and disastrous The results
coming from such impressions are
First the camp will be avoided 10y pcaceably disposed and
progressive men.
Second the town will be avoided by who seek invest
ns and who naturally look for safe places which are gov
erned by good business methods
Third business home become discouraged and dis
traced and postpone indefinitely contemplated improvements
and buildings.
Fourth the coal mining company unable to enter INTO
contracts and extend business, every extension OF which
means more work employment and increased rolls
H is clear that anything which harms any interest any
nronosition of community njpres ynpatheticaly every
other interest that community The prospects tor Red
Lodge this spring brighter than they We're two

NEW CAR SERVICE RULES.
Western Association Adopts Stringent
Regulations for Shippers.

Western Association Adopts Stringent
Regulations for Shippers.
Sioux City, Sept. 16--Fred Rogers,
general traffic manager for the Willmar
Sioux Falls railroad returned yester-
Gay from Omaha, where he attended an
important meeting of the Western Car
Service Association. AT this meeting
the railroads agreed to apply even more
stringent car service rules to shippers.
The most important actin of the meet
ing was in reducing the free time on
coal from seven days to five days.
The following is the new rule re-
garding the unloading of coal:
Cars loaded with coal, Joke, salt or
lime in bulk, and ore and fluxing ma
terial for smelling, may be held on the
tracks of the road making final delivery
to consignee seventy-two hours free of
car service charges. For all time 80
held iR excess of severity two hours a
charge of 81 per car per day or fraction
thereof shall be made. Forty-eight
hours free time will be allowed on un-
loading track in addition to the free
storage time. In no case will more than
forty-eight hours be allowed on the un-
loading track, said period of time to
placing. Provided, that all cars except
cars loaded with coal, coke, salt or lime
in bulk and ore and fluxing material for
smelling. held for payment of freight
charges or held because billed to order,
or awaiting bills of lading or instruc-
tons from shipper or consignee as to
disposition, shall be considered as
placed for unloading and shall be sub
Ject to car service charges of 81 per day
of twenty four hours or fraction there
of and for all time so held, after allow
ing twenty four hours free time for
payment of freight charges, reconsign-
1nent or surrender of bill of lading, and
IL destined or ordered5to a connecting
line. or to a point outside the territory
of this association, such charges shall
be collected before forwarding thescar.'
This new rule has the effect Of giving
on coal three days for storage and re-
consignment and two days for unload
ing, instead of three days for storage,
two days for reconsignment and two
days for unloading. or, in other. words,
the rule makes the free time five days
instead of seven.
