The stereotypers and electrotypers
had a rush of business this morning
with reports and propositions and there

INDUCED in.
Vice President Straube laid before
the convention a peculiar document In
the shape of a letter from a bureau of
information, a sort Of an employment
agency, in Sacramento. Cal, which has
been given liberal circulation in the
East.
This document consists of letter,
accompanied by a blank containing
questions. 1t is addressed to union
craftsmen and tells them of the number
of opportunities that await skilled
workmen on the Pacific Coast
The idea, according to Mr.. Straube. is
to food the coast with craftsmen in or
der that the bureau in question may
have men on hand to take the places OF
strikers. It was referred to the execu-
tive committee.

Not for District Benefit.

In the petition which is filed by
Joseph Willard, it is set out that the
District owns no stock in any of the
corporations named as defendants. Yet

District is required without considera-
ton to pay to the defendants $3.50, 900
to be levied and assessed upon the tax

District other than property of the
United States for the private use OF
the defendants and not for a public

the Constitution to take private prop
erty by taxation for any but a public
governmental use, or 10 take il at all

FINLAND,

Some of the Russians appointed ON
the police force in Finland are not
quite as good as they might be. One
of them kicked Finnish woman
who was in the family way, and the
result was miscarriage. The news
papers were instructed not to mention
the incident, and the governor re-
fused to permit the woman to insti-
tute legal proceedings against the
policeman.
a prominent Finlander named
Wolff one day noticed a Russian gen
darme smoking around in his back
yard. Mr.. Wolff only stared at the
man until he disappeared. That was
enough. Mr.. VOLTS staring at the
Russian uniform was a crime, and he
was ordered to leave the country.
A Helsingfors working man was
arrested because he. was reading pro-
hibited literature on the street-a his
tory Of the wars of independence ia
the Netherlands. He was placed in
the same cell as a thief who was
convicted Of stealing clothes. But
the thief was dismissed because he
mentioned an engineer who had ad-
vised him not to serve in the Russian
army, while the man who had been
reading history on the street was kept
IN jail for several days.
