Why, good morning, Carrye
You are travelling under a iirst

your breezy style, however, and
hope to hear from you often.
We have no Colonels nor Ma
iors on this side of the branch
but the plain old farmers are do
ing excellent time right around
Evansville and every Que of them
is up against the biggest corn
crop that we have had for sew
eral years. There is no use in
saying that it is badly needed,
for truly some OF us had reached
the last ditch.
The cotton, while small, is
well fruited, and there is time
enough yet to make an average
crop of II cent cotton.
Sorghum, potatoes and other
minor crops are doing unusually y
well, and with another good rain
or so we will be fixed" to try
it another year.
We are grieved to note that

men and boys daily and nightly

hall, there was very little argument
against it--action thereon was prac-
tically unanimous.
The employers are formed into an
association called the Master Plumb
ers' association. Therefore, no individ-
ual action was taken on the wage ques-
ton, but meeting was hastily called
for 10 o'clock this morning. All the
employing plumbers in the city are
affected by the strike, except Maxwell
& Hollingberry.
1t is said to be impossible for the
employing plumbers to ship non-union
Inumbers into the city in any reason
able time. Owing to the effect OF
the state plumbing examiners board,
any plumber who works in the city
is compelled to first pass an examina-
ton in the city in which he wants
to secure work.
The plumbers union is composed Of
about 80 members and their demands
amount to $233.50 per week increase in
wages.
Both the masters and the plumbers
went into session at 10 o'clock this
morning.
AS the result of the meeting of the
master plumbers, which lasted oveI
two hours, there is now a deadlock ex-
isting between them and the union
They have not yet acceded to the de
mands of the union, which they claim
are altogether unjust. Another meet
ing is called for tomorrow. President

Evans of the Master Plumbers asso-
citation said this afternoon.
"There is nothing we can give out
for publication at the present time.
Suffice to say that the plumbers are
still out. In a few days there will
likely be lots said from our view OF
the matter. They took us entirely by
surprise"
The meeting of the members of the
plumbers union lasted but very
short time The reports of the COM
mittees of the various shops were re-
ceived. Delegate Witherspoon refus-
ed to make any statement of the
plumbers side of the case today, say
ing that the union had instructed him
to say nothing.
The hours now enforced by the union
are eight to constitute day. On Satur-
days they only work half day.
There will likely be a meeting OF
the board of examiners as a sort of ar
bitration board. This it is believed is
favored by the master plumbers. This
board is composed OF James Smyth
and James Maxwell, plumbers; j. F.
Armstrong, journeyman plumber; j.
w. Legeson, plumbing inspector of the
city; and DR.. Roberts of the health
department, president of the board.
Only a part of the full membership
Of the union was present when the ac-
ton was taken to strike.

fore the trades council for their en-

After a meeting last night, lasting
plumbers union of the city reached a
decision TO make formal demand on
their employers this morning and to
70 out ON strike until the latter arriv-
ed at a decision as to whether or not
they would acceed to the demands of
the union and grant the increase IN
wages asked. This increase amounts to
80 cents per day. The plumbers are
now receiving S. per day.
The demand came as a great surprise
70 the employing plumbers, as they
had not so much as an mixing Of the
intentions of the union to make de-
mand for increased salaries.
The master plumbers of the city
have already contracted for thousands
of dollars worth of work, which if no
decision is reached Immediately, will
be effectually tied up. Coming as the
demand does at this time of the year,
when there are so many people in need
of plumbing, the master plumbers may
be said to be confronted with the
most difficult problem ever enforced by
any union. They claim that not 4
word was mentioned TO them regarding
the proposed action of the union, and
there were very few of the plumbers
themselves who knew that a motor
would be offered at the meeting last
night to strike.
