STRIKE ORDER GIVEN
PRESIDENT PERHAM CALLS OUT
TELEGRAPnERS.
Conduct Of Railroad Officials De.
CIared to Have Seen character.
lied by TrtCkery and Bad Faith,
r1ovement Of N0n.UniOn Men
Had Already Beaun.

St. Paul, Aug. 2.-President H. B.
Perham, of the Order of Railway
photographers, issued a strike order to
the operators of the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific railways at II
O'Clock last night. BY noon today Mr..
Perham predicts that all offices along
the lines Of both systems will be closed,
with the exception of fourteen of the
most important ones. The strike Or
der does not include the station agent
at st. Paul, Minneapolis, Seattle, Ia.
coma, Portland and nine other similar
offices. All operators, however, are
included, with the exception of train
dispatchers.
According to President Perham the
immediate cause of the issuance of the
strike order was the movement Of nom
union men from Kansas City, news Of
which reached St. Paul yesterday af.
ternoon.
Negotiations which had been pend.
ing between the Order of Railway
Telegraphers and the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific railways for some
time came to a sudden end yesterday,
when General Manager Horn, of the
Northern Pacific, notified the teleg-
raphers Of that system that the COM
pany's proposition as to the rate Of
wages it would pay was final, and they
could accept it or leave the service.
The Great Northern officials took
practically the same stand toward
their employees last night.
The only chance of an adjustment
of the trouble rests with President J..
J. Hill, who is in New York, and to
whom President Perham, of the rail.
way telegraphers appealed in tele-
gram last night.
perham Gives His Side.
In issuing his strike order, Mr.. Per.
ham said that he positively denied all
statements made by the officials of the
companies.
1.-THE conduct of the officials of the
roads has been characterized by trick
cry and bad faith" declared Mr.. Per-
ham. The strike has been caused by
the fact that the men are overworked
and underpaid. Their salaries were
reduced during the hard times of
few years ago and have never regained
their former standard, notwithstanding
that the cost of living has increased
from 20 to 80 per cent
Neither road, however, expects to
have difficulty in the operation of it's
trains on account of the strike. 1t is
said by officials of the telegraph de.
partment that it is mistake to imag-
inc that they cannot operate the road
with safety without hundreds of op-
orators.
1t is declared that a modern road
can be operated with perfect safety
with but one man stationed every fifty
miles. Both roads have extensive tel
ephone systems, and there is not one
stretch of track anywhere, it is said
that cannot be reached under such con.
ditions by either telegraph or tele-
phone.
General Manager Horn says the rail.
road company has endeavored by all
means to settle the strike peaceably,
and he lays the blame for failure to
few persistent agitators.

Only a Suggestion.

There are thousands Of people who are really
eonarmed dyspeptics although they may not have
any particular pain or Inconvenience from their
stomachs.
II such people would lay their prejadiees aside
and make regular practice Of taking after each
meal one two of stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. the
food would be quickly and thoroughly digested,
because these tablets contain the natural peptones
and diastase which every weak stomach lacks, and
By supplying this want the stomach Is enabled

judge of the district court of Oregon, to fill
a vacancy that has existed since the death
of Judge Charles B. Bellinger. The Judge

New York Politics.


Representative j. Sloat Fassett of New
York made a call at the White House this
morning, but as the President was about to
go to the wedding of the daughter of Secre-
tary Hit chcock he deferred a talk with the
President until another time. Mr.. Fassett,
like other New York republicans, Is In
tensely interested in the New York stua-
ton He does not care to have himself
quoted for publication, but he is known TO
feel that there must be reorganization OF
the party all along the line If it is to go to
the people hereafter with prospects of sue
cess. This Is also regarded as the attitude
of the President Secretary Root and Post
master General Cortelyou. who had long
talk at the White House last night with
Gov Higgins of New York.
What Mr.. Fassett describes as ''the rec
rudescence of the civic conscience of the
people" is expected to play havoc with
some of the old-time leaders in various
parts of the state. AS to the suggestion
that the people are not hunting leaders now
and want to get along without one, as Sec
rotary Taft suggests they should do in
Ohio Mr.. Fassett Is not so certain. Con-
ditions In New York demand a head.
The President has had a number of sug-
gestions made to him as to New York
county and state affairs. but he con-
tinues to assert that he will not undertake
to suggest a leader in the county and one
in the state. He desires to see good, clean
men placed at the head of the organiza-
ton ana Indt IL ali. TOE INV IOih SOuhtJ
chairman two names have been suggested
and are under consideration. The first was
that of Mr.. Van Olcott, put forward by
Senator Platt but number OF other lead
ers have suggested that Lynn Bruce would
be the proper man. He was put out OF the
New York county craftsmanship by ex-Gov.
OdeIl He Is declared to be clean, incor-
rupttble and honest.
Gov. Higgins got here from New York
last evening took dinner with the Presi-
dent and remained in conference with him
and the two cabinet officers until about IL
O'clock. when he left for his hotel and then
took a midnight train for New York He
unhesitatingly admitted that he had been
talking about New York state and county
political affairs. AS to the Presidents CON
nection with the conference and his wishes
and desires, Gov. Higgins said he was au-
thorized to say nothing but that Il am very
solicltous about the political conditions in
New York" Gov Higgins said, however,
that the New York county situation was
discussed, and that the President desired
that man of high character and reputa-
ton should be selected as county chairman.
