served that foreign farm hands and
small farmers seldom settle in the

steads but now that such lands are
almost entirely settled an effort will
be made to bring these desirable emf

Peace and order Today.

Promises of peace and order for to-
day, the presidents day, were made by
both sides in the teamsters' strike. The
Employers Teaming company decided
to reduce it's teaming and delivery op-
erations for today. The teamsters'
joint counsel has voted against a gen
eral strike and determined that no fur
ther sympathetic movements should be
made, except in case of teamsters or
dered to make deliveries to boycotted
houses in which event individuals
should walk out. A statement of the
situation was prepared to be presented
to President Roosevelt by strikers
committee, which desisted at his re-
quest, from meeting him on the way to
Chicago The labor Representatives
planned to inform the president of le-
gal proceedings which have been talk
Ell by the employers and make prop
OsitiOn that the President act as an
arbitrator of the differences, choosing
as associates one man from the labor
ranks and one from the employers.
The employers say they will not Off
cially approach the president.

President Roosevelt with out trou-
bles," said Attorney Levy Mayer, coun-
sci for the Employers association to-
day. 'It is likely, however, he added
that the employers side will get the
presidents ear for a quiet discussion
of the situation some time during his
stay here"
Strike leaders declared that no or
ders had been issued to the strikers
to refrain from violence today, beyond
instructions previously given out dur
ing the strike, but it was current gos
sip that secret commands had beer
passed along the line, ordering al
teamsters to remain absolutely quie
and not to attempt the slightest inter
ference today with the teams of the

STRIKERS PROTEST
AGAINST SOLDIERS
They Address An Appeal To
President Roosevelt.
EMPLOYERS BROKE AGREEMENT
All Contracts, They Claim, Had the
Arbitration Clause Which Was Dis
regarded by EmpIoyers-Negros De-
onTnra I1io

Chicago, May 10-''To the Honorable
Theodore Roosevelt, President of the
United States of America-Honorable
Sir: This labor difficulty began as
a lockout. So far as there has been
any striking done, it has been a strike
for arbitration. The unions are CON-
mitted both upon principle and upon
specific contract with the employers
for arbitration.
These contracts grew out of the de-
sire Of the unions to protect the pub
lie peace and welfare by providing to
submit all disputes or differences of
opinion to the Umpirage of an impair
tial third party, and accepting the
decision-right or wrong-as binding
upon both parties. Such a course is
a guarantee of the preservation OF
law and order. All that the unions
ask for or desire in this controversy
is that an arbitration shall be granted
as specifically agreed to in the con-
tracts involved. All that is desired
that the public officials shall join with
the labor bodies in demanding that
lawlessness shall not be allowed to be
used in forcing contracts to be broken
and that violence shall not be allowed
to prevent differences of opinion to
be settled by the quiet, orderly meth
DDS of arbitration
