RIDGEwAY.
(From the Review. }

Have you noticed what demand
there are for houses in Ridgewsy? Ii
is to be regretted that so few good
tenement houses are to be had. 1t is
lamentable barrier to the advance
ment of the town. No desirable family
will be content to live long in town
where they cannot secure comfort
able home. Here is a chance for some
one to make good use of their money,
by building good, medium sized houses
to rent thus benetiting the town, and
also by so doing, placing added value
on other property he may have i'll

homes here, now let us have more

 The doctor managed to escape his Pittsburg foes, and is now back at them with a suit flied yesterday in the district court in Phoenix, asking damages to the amount of $2S5, ,0OO from Charles B. Mclean, William J. Strassburger, A. Strassburger, J. W. Smith. W. S. Huselton, W. S. Wilson, E. Uttley and James Mckay.
 The complaint is very brief and states that about November 1, of 1901. the only means the plaintiff company had of raising money was by the sale of certain shares of treasury stock, 16,3s5 shares. whose par value was s10 share. The Pittsburgh directors made an arrangement for the sale of the stock to s. Strassburger and J. W. Smith. two of their number, and s. s. Lindsey and E. W. Day, at 25 cents share. Thus, it is claimed by the claimant. was removed the only thing that stood between the company
 and insolvency, and that it is now in. solvent. Objection to the sale was made by Dr. J. M Evans, but he was alone in the objection.

more, but they are satisfied, knowing how badly oyersubscribed the enter prise was. And as the shares are selling at an advance of from $50 to $40 above the purchase price. those fortunate enough to have secured some on the ground floor are feeling well pleased. They expect the stock will go above s100 in a short time. They argue that their lands are be- ing explored by adjoining companies, and that rich ore bodies will unques- tionably soon be shown near them Iron Ore.
 Money from Michigan continues to arrive almost daily and it's eagerness to reach investment in the mines of this section often brings it by wire Send it along, gentlemen. The War ren district has only been merely scratched, so far as the mineral de velopment is concerned.

SOMETHING GOOD GOING ON.

Iron Ore says there is a rumor cur rent in Michigan mining circles that there is something good going on un- derground at the big development properties at Bssbee. Prominent off cers of the Calumet & Arizona prop critics are now on the ground, and are sending out some very good news. Ii will be well for those having the stock to await developments. There will probably soon be advances in this line of stock.

Vice President Lewis and myself. And, if 1t had not been for the arbi- tration, I want to say that the miners would never have gotten a two-weeks' pay, unless they had openly gone into the field and fought it out on it's merits. l understand. now, but hope that it Is not true, that some men are saying they want to go back to the monthly pay day. Why they think this, am not in a posi- tion to tell you"
 Tn concluding his remarks, MT Farley said that he had given the miners q re- view of the arbitration, saying that he thought they had right to know the in- side history of the case. He spoke for an hour
 Following the close of the report of MT. Fairley, William Kirkpatrick asked him several question relative to commissary checks and other matters taken up by the arbtrators. MT. Kirkpatrick was at the opposite end of the hall. and for a few minutes there was a cross-fire be- twen him and Mir. Fairley.< Several oth- CTS asked questions of MT. Fairey, and as he was about to assume his seat, he remarked:

at 10 o'clock, when we met in the Hotel Hillman, the operators held a meeting. It was fortunate for us that we knew this. The next day. Saturday morning, the operators said they would rather give the eight hours than to give an increase in wages.
 As to Wages.
 Continuing, MT. Farley said. Judge Gray took the position that the wages in Alabama were in excess of the wages paid In the anthracite regions. Judge Cray" he said maintained that the price of iron had fallen much lower than even the operators or you and I antic- pated And, let me say, that if the arbi- tration board had made their award later. you would not have received as much as you did
 Judge Gray wanted an unanimous award, for the reason that if it was not unanimous. all parties concerned would not get the benefits that might accrue therefrom. The only submission made to the arbitrators. as the records will show. was an eight-hour workday, two weeks pay day and cent increase in maximum and minimum.
 The operators filed a protest at the Hotel Hillman, just at the time we were about to sign the agreement They laid all blame on the shoulders of Judge Gray,

Money Donated.

Referring to the four thousand dollars ts40G0) in the above statement. paid to National Board Member w. R. Fairley and National Vice President T. L.-Lewis
 was refunded to National Secretary Treasurer W, B. Wilson. The said four thousand dollars have been donated by the national organization back to the dis trict, which is part of the nine thousand eight hundred dollars s9S0O which appears as donations from the national office. You will readily see by the enormous amount of money expended that there has been a great struggle to enforce the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1903-12-15

mandates of our organization. I would recommend that the constitution be so amended as to state the limit of time that a member or members should be idle, either by suspension or strike, before they are entitled to support from the dis trict treasury.
 I would further recommend that the ecretary-treasurer's bond be increa sed from two to five thousand dollars, or as much as the convention deems necessary.
 The following table shows the member ship of the district organization for the

7 The increase in membership in 1903 over 1902 is 2094. Number of locals organized in 1903 was 29. Number disbanded was y. Net gain, 20 Number local unions, Ss.
 The responsibilities or this office have been considerably increased by the ln- creased number of locals and members admitted into our union during the year The number of strikes and suspensions occurring during the year have taxed the small office force to it's capacity. Had 1t not been for the assistance rendered by Vice President Greer, we should have been compelled to employ extra clerical work in this office. In conclusion, 1 de- sire to thank my official colleagues and the membership in general for the uni- form courtesies extended me.
 Following this the secretary submitted table showing the amount paid by each local during the year. The income from December 1, 1902, to November 30. 1903, was as follows:
