the hope that the sober second thought
OF the community will offer some solu-
ton of the difficulty consistent with his
self-respect and convictions of duty.
Thursday the mine managers held
a meeting in Sutter Greek to discuss the
situation. The representatives were
firm and unyielding on the principles
at stake, but at the same time evinced
spirit of fairness in treating with
employees. The following manifesto ex-
pressive of their position was adopted:
To the Public.
The Miners Union at Jackson on
April 13, 1908, declared strike against
the following mines; Gwin, Zeila, Ken
nedy, Oneida, South Eureka and Gen.
trail Eureka.
We are informed by our employees
that at that time the Union had very
small membership, and that few if any
of our men belonged to the same, vet
by threats and intimidation the Union
has caused great many of our en-
ployes to quit work and have even
driven off some of the engineers with
the expressed inten ton of flooding the
mines and thus causing almost irrepar-
able damages.
The men themselves who work in our
mines have no grievance that we know
Of; they have never asked for conces-
sions that have not been granted; we
are now and always have been willing
to treat with our own employees fairly
and impartially and give them the best
pay and shortest hours our properties
can afford.
The ore in the mines in this district
is low grade and many of our compan-
les are regularly levying assessments
contributed in large part by our resi-
dent citizens.
Unless our employees are afforded
protection by the authorities we cannot
operate our properties, and they will
have to remain closed indefinitely.
We therefore ask that law and order
be enforced by our law officials, that
intimidation and threats cease and that
every man who wants to work be per-
mitted to do so.

Twenty-frst Anniversary.

Friday night, April 10, Golden Star
Chapter No. &c, o. E. S., celebrated
their twenty-first anniversary at their
hall. These annual gatherings are
always looked forward to by the men,
bers of the chapter and their friends, as
their reputation for royal good time
is established so we'll that a mere an
nouncement of the occasion is sure to
bring out more people than the
Masonic hall can accommodate. This
anniversary, however, was more than
those of former years. Not only had
the chapter attained its lawful twenty
one years of age and could look back
upon childhood of peace, harmony
and prosperity, but something else was
doing" 1t was known that two
worthy members, tried and true, were
one the eve of taking their departure
from Jackson, and to bid fond fare
we'll to Mr.. and Mrs. S. G. Spagnoli
was the last but not least event of the
occasion. While the gathering was
one of Joy and good will. yet there was
sorrow in the hearts of all, particularly
the members of Golden Star Chapter
who had known the departing friends
so long, and it-was like severing family
ties to bid them goodbye. Mr.. and
Mrs. Spagnoli are charter members of
Golden Star Chapter. and have given
their time and support to the order
that they loved through all these years,
and it seemed strange coincidence
that they should take their departure
on the twenty-irst anniversary of the
chapters birth. 1t is needless to men,
tion any praise of the brother and
sister at this time. Enough was dem
onstrated by those present to convince
all of the thoughts on every ones mind,
and ''God be with you'' was read on
the faces of all. A short and interest
ing program was presented in an
interesting manner. Introductory
remarks were made by the worthy
matron, Mrs. Nellie Kent, followed by
an address, 1.-THE grand feature of the
order," U. G. Spagnoli. Mrs. E. Fl.
Harrington, Mrs. E. Zumbiel, Mrs.
Morrow. D. B. Spagnoli, Miss Matson,
Miss Nettie Morrow, and little Emerson
Harrington enlivened the time with
music, songs and readings, after which
the Mandolin Club, whose members are
DIR. Carl Schacht, VIM. Penry, Frank
Valvo and H. Allan, rendered sweet
music throug hOut the evening. Fare
we'll speeches were made by Judge Rust,
r. c. Bole, J. w. Caldwell, DR.. Will
son and Rev. F. A. Morrow, which
were feelingly replied to by the de-
parting brother in behalf OF himself
and wife. At eleven o'clock the ban
quet tables were spread, and of all the
good things to eat, words couldn't
begin to tell. Suffice to say, Golden
Star Chapter always does this part of
the program to a nicety, and this oc-
casion was no exception to the rule.
1t was after midnight before final leave
taking was said, and had our friends
known the effort it cost to say good
bye, it is doubtful if they would have
attempted it, and they well know the
esteem in which they are held by the
Masonic fraternity as well as all the
people of Jackson.

the peace. Gardella is in sympathy

serious fight was checked by the con-
stable. and Gardella lodged in jail. A
complaint was filed against him this

Committed for Insanity.

Louis Quirolo, who has been in the
hospital for several weeks, was ex-
amined for insanity last Saturday by
Drs. Endicott and Gall, and committed
to the insane asylum at Stockton. He

to send him to the state institution.

nesday afternoon he came to town to
warn the strike leaders to keep off the
grounds; that if any effort was made
to interfere with the men inside there
would be trouble. Nevertheless large
body of strikers moved in that direc-
tios toward evening. They separated
into smaller squads, and took in points
at the Kennedy on the way. Superin-

move. Sheriff Norman and Deputy
jackson also repaired to the scene, and
overlook detached bodies on their way.
A few words were exchanged. The

WIDE TIRE THE THING.
and Makes Hauling of Heavy
Loads Easy.

AS / am a good-road lover, wish to
give my opinion on how TO make road
hard and solid so that it will carry the
heavy loads better than most roads
generally do.
In my own experience years ago, I
owned only one two-inch tire wagon.
Since then I made three-inch wagon
out of old wheels by cutting it down
a little lower and had the blacksmith
put on three-inch tires, one-half inch
thick.
The wonderful effect this has in i'm
proving an otherwise worthless farm
convenience no one knows unless he
has tried it. The wagon now is as
good as a new one, and it does not
cut down as before.
Farmers should be sure to order
wide tires when new wheels are need
ed on old wagons. A three-inch tire
will do, but four-inch is still better,
as it acts as roller on the road, and
when once packed the draft is much
lighter. This is my eXperience.-H.
f. Jahnke, in Farmers Voice.
