Settling = Strike IN Mexico.

Strikes are unknown in the Mexican
mines" said DIR. Frank y. Tonssant
In speaking about conditions In Mex
leo, where he spends considerable Of
his time. while down on my recent
trip to Huepac, Sonora, I heard of an
attempt to strike. The men. urged on
by a number of agitators, formulated
a protest against their hours and
wages and threatened to so out on a
strike If their demands were not COM
piled with. The operators scarcely
had time to look over the demands
made by their men. when word came
from the government in Mexico City to
arrest ~agitators Immediately. Those
who hailed from the states We're un-
tremendously deported and the Mex
lean miners who had been led by these
unionizers went back to. their work. or
to speak more properly, they continued
their work, as they had not yet quit
work.
'"To get a mining claim in Mexico is
the easiest thing in the world; all you
have to do is to find some stone, tree
or other mark, hen draw an imaginary
line around as much of a tract as you
want and her make your denounce-
ment. This costs you $32.50, A SUR
|veyor will then be sent out n meas
ure off as many rods as you want. He
will take about 500 for his services.
The plot which he prepares, now goes
to the capital and in due course of
time you will be asked TO pay a tax
equal to about $40 for a parcel of land
the size IL a city block. This tax must
be paid annually, and as long as you do
this, you viii be considered the owner
of that claim"

Severe Test for Trainmen's Eyes.

Columbus Press-Post: Tests for
defective eyesight on all members OF
railroad train crews are much more
severe and frequent thar they were a
few years ago." remarked a prominent
railway official a few days ago.. THE
reasons for these tests are obvious. as
the safety of every moving train de-
ponds mainly upon the cl~earness of
vision of the men having it in charge.
In these tests, color blindness causes
the most trouble, and is a constant
menace TO all trainmen, as the inabil-
ity to name correctly the different col
ors at a glance is followed by instant
dismissal from the service.
"A peculiar case vas brought to
light recently when a conductor on my
road was being put through the test.
He had been running a passenger train
several years, and never met with an
accident, and was deemed one Of the
best men on the road. When the diff
ferent colors were placed before him
singly, he called them correctly at a
glance, but when two or more colors
were presented, he was wholly unable
TO tell one from another. We were
sorry for him. but of course were forced
to let him go.
physicians seem to be unable to
iscover TO just what cause this aIIlic-
ton is due. They claim that some per-
sons are born with ii, while IL ONE
upon others without warning at any
time OF life, and unless put to the test
the victim will never know that he is
10 afflicted"

Next Monday Hons. Il. A.
Pierce and FL. Garrett will speak
in Union City. 1t being the first
Monday in the month and just two
days from the election a very
large crowd is expected to be on
hand. The candidates will proba-
bly, make their best efforts. This
paper has not taken up the fight
for either candidate. Both are
men of ability. Obe is a man of
experience, the other ambitious
to fill his place. In our opinion,
the Ninth District will be well rep
resented in the selection Of either
gentleman. There is no question
on this point. The friends of both
are lining up for the final contest

will all as one man gather to the
