TAk[ PLACES
Of STRIKERS
Agent Hiring CoCkneys to
Go to Wyoming and
Colorado

The startling news was about today
that the coal magnates OF Wyoming
and Colorado had an agent in this city
who. for the last week, has been h,r-
ing men to go to those regions and
take the places of the union miners.
This man could not be located today.
For several days past people have no.
ticed great many cockneys around the
city, who stop over here for day
and then leave over the Northern Pa
cific on the Burlington train. Most OF
them get tickets to Wyoming, but
Their destination is evidently Colorado.
These cockneys are thrifty lot who
have spent but few years or months
in this country. Fernie, coal camp IN
British Columbia, is where the most OF
them come from.
While in this city they seldom leave
each other. but travel around in a
crowd until their train is ready TO
leave. when they gather their blankets
and other belongings and depart,
They are very close-mouthed and al
though very willing to tell one about
British Columbia and their strikes up
there, they absolutely refuse to say
whittier they are bound. When the
question is pressed they maintain At
| Is Montana, but investigation shows
they go into Wyoming and Colorado
Fully 100 have passed through the city
within the past ten days, and union
men who have met them finally became
suspicious and investigated as well as
they could, with the result as above
stated
That the owners have an agent here
has been suspected for some time
but he is such smooth individual, his
identity has not yet been learned. From
this city he has been operating through
| British Columbia. 1t is also stated
that many of the cockney miners leave
for the south by way of the Jennlng'
branch of the Great Northern VIA
Havre. Great Fails and Helena.

hsse boy who knocked on the dooi
of the residence of J. A. Jodoin- of
the mercantile firm of Jodoin & Da-
v,es, 1904 Fourth avenue. shortly
after nightfall last night
But mama failed to put in an APP
pesrance. and search of the neigh
besiug streets by Mr.. Jodoin failed
to disclose any mama in connection
with the boy.
Thoroughly alarmed and fearing
that the child had been abandoned
Mrs. Jodoin began carefully question
ing the youngster. He said his name
was Freddie Yocca, as near as Mrs
Jodoin could understand, because the
child can not speak plainly. He could
tell absolutely nothing as to where
he lived and could only repeat that
his mama had told him to knock OF
the, door.
The lad was neatly dressed in q
blue Norfolk suit. On his head was

What competition has done is amply
