Both houses of the New York legis-
iature, which are republican by good
majorities, have voted to refer to the
people the question of bond issue for
improvement of canal facilities. This
adoption of the referendum is
thing new in the republican party. and
this course was taken by a Legislature
whose machinery is in the hands of
men from the a~nti-canal counties. The.
proposition to be submitted to the peo-
pie is the question of an issue Of enc
hundred million dollars of lands Tor the
purpose of charging the canal between
the lakes and the Hudson so as to ac-
commodate /. OOO-ton barges. New York
is losing her traffic in handling exports
from the west. The Improvement In
railway facilities to other cities of the
Atlantic seabOard has deprived her of
much of her former prestige To re-
cover her lost ground she finds her
waterway connections to the interior
have to be modernized. The Erie
course has not been improved or en-
larged to meet growing demands in
the last forty years. The New Workers
have awakened to the act that some
thing must be lone to maintain their
city's position as the chief American
port and this canal scheme seems 10
be most feasible.

Key Wanted to This BILE
Strike.

There have been strikes and strikes
but the strike inaugurated by the
plumbers and timers yesterday Will
probably take precedence as one Of the
most remarkable on record. Since the
6 ike of the carpenters a few days ago
everything has been going along as
smoothly as possible in the building
trades. But the white-winged angel
of peace does not hover long over those
orders and the present strike promises
to assume a very serious phase for the
salient reason that the men have been
unable to find out what they are str:k-
ing about
A group Of plumbers and timers
were standing on Main street yester-
day afternoon when the city editor of
The State approached them.
We'll, what is the trouble was
asked.
Don't know" replied one Of the
strikers.
You are on another strike, are you
not?"
Yes"
What are you striking for now?'
Don know"
! Why, you must know what 0 are
| striking for?"
but we DON'T"
lat was absolutely all thai could
be gotten out of the men and they were
evidently telling the truth when they
said that they did not know what they
were striking about. The men were
| notified yesterday morning and tl:ey
were told under penalty of fines that
| they must not let their bosses know that
they were going out. So yesterday
morning the master plumbers went TIC
their places of business to find that
they had no men to start work with.
AS the master Workmen have met
every demand of the men, naturally
they are a very hot set. Only q short
time 6 the plumbers and timers de-
manded a nine o day and an in
creased sci. They also demanded
| that no man outside Of Columbia be
empoyed. The master workmen rather
than have any trouble that might re-
| tard the building operations in the city
! submitted to these demands and ar
now notified that a strike has been de-
| clared, the reasons for which they arc
not for the present permitted to know
The master plumbers hope to be in
formed of their offense today so they
may remedy it if possible.
There are about 60 plumbers and Tin
