Chicago, May 15@The strike of the

which is the governing body of the To-
cal unions of the teamsters, and repre-
scntatives of the Team Owners asso-
citation the Inter Informed the repre-.
sentatives of the transfers that the
condition OF their business made 1t
necessary for them to make deliveries
to houses which had been "boycotted"
by the unions, and that they would do
so this week, needless of the fact
whether or not strike existed Mt such
places. The council was urged to
1gree to this procedure, and avert
general strike.
Strikers Refuse to Agree.
After an extended debate among its
members the teamsters council decided
that 1t would not agree to the delivery
of goods to any of the .boycotted"
houses by union Transfers, and that
strikes would be called whenever a
man was discharged for refusing to
deliver goods. The Team Owners as.
ISOLATION firms are bound by contracts
to deliver goods to many of the hoy.
cotted" houses, and the refusal OF the
Transfers to permit such delivery is n
demand that the Team Owners asso.
citation firms shall violate their con.
tracts. The Employers association has
continually demanded the execution of
these contracts, so the Team Owners
association was between two fires. In
the discussions of the matter Shea,

ouTLAwED EVERYWHERE.

Two knockout blows We're dealt the
gambler last Saturday-one by Sheriff
Painter of Walla Waia, who 'raided
the dens and closed the games on the
spot, the other by Judge Frazer of
Portland, whose closed the pool
books and suppressed race-track
gambling at Irvington race track.
The profession is outlawed in every
civilized community. Soon the last
lingering shadow of responsibility
which has clung to certain types of
gamblers through their associations
with decent men, will have vanished
and the entire profession will stand
stripped naked before the world. out
lawed and in utter disgrace with laws
against it wherever it may turn.
The greatest advertisement ever is
sued by Walla walla was the news
that Sheriff Painter had raided the
gambling joints and would keep them
closed despite police incompetency or
neglect. This one fact will attract
more decent people to Walla Walla
than any other inducement that could
be offered, and yet the same adver-
tisement lies in the reach of Pendle-
ton and every other town if it will but
demand it.

RACE PREJUDICE CUP NORTH

In the town of Syracuse, o., on the
Ohio river, four miles above Pome-
roy, a town of about 1000 inhabitants,
no negro is permitted to live. No
negro is permitted to stay in town
over night under any consideration.
This is an absolute rule in this year
1905, and 1t has existed for several
generations. The enforcement of this
unwritten law for keeping the negro
from staying in the town over a single
night is in the hands of the boys from
12 to 20 years of age, while the at
tempt of a negro to become a resi-
Dent of the town is resisted by the
town en- masse.
When the colored man is seen in
the town during the day he is gen.
orally told of these traditions, If he
is so ignorant not to know them al
ready, and is warned to leave before
sundown. If he fails to take heed he
is surrounded at about the time that
darkness begins and is addressed by
the leaders of the gang in about this
language: mo niger is allowed to
stay in this town over night. We
don't care what you are here for
