ton booth, in charge of Mrs. a. Lar

Besides the booths a fish pond, UNI

TRUCKERS UNION
Railroad Employees Will Likely
Organize If Wage Demands
Are Denied.
NOW ASKING FOR $40 PER MONTH
Along the Rock island
Other News of
Rail.

The scarcity of labor throughout
the country is causing general
shaking up of the wages paid truck
men in railway freight houses. The
work of truckmen is of a kind that
any able bodied man can do and the
fact that il is steady winter and sum
mcr and that those who follow the
occupa ton are reasonably protected
from the inclcmencieS of the weather
have combined to prevent the wages
from being raised as in other lines of
work. The result is that, when there
is scarcity of men, especially during
the spring of the year, there is more
or less difficulty on all roads in keep
ing enough men TO do the work.
The local offices have been expert
encing this difficulty this year as
perhaps never before. The Burling-
ton recently made slight raise in
the wages of its men in this city, fol-
lowing the same action in other
places. other roads have found it
necessary to do the same in the larg-
er cities.
The agitation is especially strong
on the Rock Island just now. Raises
have been granted i'm the larger cities
along the line and now the movement
among the truckmen for better pay
has become general and there is talk
of forming union for the enforce
ment of the demands. The freight
house men in this city receive $1.40 Il
day and they have made demand for
$40 month. Their cause has been
taken up by the officials of the road
in Chicago and while the system of
paying by the month may not be
agreed to il is considered likely that
an advance of some sort will be
given. If not the men declare a local
union will he formed and an attempt
made to extend the organization to
other cities.

One rule which has already been
established at Hawthorn and thr, Ugh
out the Rock Island system since the
new general manager has taken his
position is that there are no extra
freight trains ON the road any more.
All are now called section of the
train which precedes them, whether
freight or passenger. This is done,
