Citizens of Santa Cruz Are
Sure They Can Offer Most
Attractive Inducements
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SANTA CRUZ, Oct. 12.-The public
spirited citizens of Santa Cruz, headed
by F. S. Granger of the Santa Cruz
Electric Railway, are making every
effort to have all future State fairs
held in this city. The fair at Sacra-
mento was a failure from a financial
standpoint this year, but Santa
Cruzans are satisfied that this city has
the natural advantages to make a
State fair a paying investment and
beneficial to Santa Cruz.
With this idea in view the prelim-
mary work upon the new racetrack in
East Santa Cruz is already under way.
Much of the capital stock has already
been subscribed and it is the intention
of the stockholders to make the track
the equal of any in the State. The
Santa Cruz, Capitola and Watsonville
Railway is to extend spur track to
the entrance of the new track.

RETURN IN AN HOUR

PORTLAND, Oct. 12.-Nearly 400
telephone operators employed in the
two main offices of the Pacific States
Telephone and Telegraph Company in
this city walked out shortly after 1
o'clock to-day, having declared a strike
against the company, alleging cruel
and unjust treatment by a supervising
this city and Spokane. Six girls re-
fused to join in the movement and did
their best to satisfy the demands of
the thousands of subscribers in this
city and vicinity.
AS soon as the strike was declared the
local manager of the company COM
municated with headquarters in San
Francisco, asking that experienced op-
orators be sent here at once. 1t is
understood here that the Telephone OPP
orators Union in San Francisco re-
fused to sanction such a move on the
part of the company. Shortly before
2 o'clock the strikers returned to work
under promise of the telephone COM
pany's officials that the matter would
be fully investigated and all wrongs,
should they exist, be adjusted to the
satisfaction Of the operators.
Trouble has been brewing in the To-
cal office of the telephone company for
some time, due, the strikers say, to
the actions of a supervising fore
woman who has inaugurated a system
of dement's" or marks" for the in
fraction of rules which the operators
assert are overrigid and inhuman. Each
mark" against an operator means a
deduction from her salary at the end
Of the month; eight marks for three
successive months results in the oper-
ator's position being taken from her.
The girls, to the number of 100 met
last night and organized a union,
which has affiliated with the Federated
Trades Council. 1t was determined
that unless to-day brought an anne
lioration of the alleged wrongs that at
given signal the operators would
leave their boards and walk out Word
Of the impending strike was passed
among the several hundred operators
who were unable to attend last nights
meeting, and when the signal was given
shortly after 1 o'clock almost the en-
tire operating force quit their places.

Water PouFs Through Breaks and
Damages Crops to the Extent

COLUSA, Oct. 1.-THE Sacramento
River reached twenty-one feet to-
night, and is still rising slowly. This
rapid rise was caused by the heavy
rains of Saturday, Sunday and Mon
day night. This is the highest mark
ever reached so early in the season.
Water is pouring through the breaks
on the east side, which had not been
repaired, though they occurred last
winter. The water pouring through
these breaks is rushing on corn, beans
and buckwheat fields, causing losses
that will be between $4,000 and $780,
600. Bean and corn harvesting had
just commenced. The buckwheat is
not yet thoroughly ripe.
