An Incipient Strike.

There is labor difficulty on at the
Keystone mine at Amador City. This
mine has, ever since the organization of
the union in that town, been operating
on a closed shop basis; that is all its
employees are req ouired Ia be members
of the union. Both the superintendent
and the foreman are active members of
the Western Federation. When the
arrangement was made couple of
years ago to grant the nine hours per
day demand, the keystone, it seems,
made concession of half an hour less
to those on the night shift. The night
shift has worked eight and half hours,
and the day shift nine hours. This dif-
ference in working shifts was the direct
cause of the present trouble. 1t is not
easy to get at the bottom facts, but ac-
cording to the information we have re-
ceived, Superintendent Lynch required
the night shift men to work hours,
the same as the day shift. Tuesday
night, as the men were about to begin
work, they were apprised of the
change, and straightway refused to go
to work. There were some 65 men on
the shift, and 81 declined to submit to
the new time schedule. They were
paid off. The day shift the following
morning went to work as usual; they
had no grievance as the new time table
did not include them. At the regular
meeting of the local union held We'd
nesday night, the matter was brought
up, in hope of reaching settlement,
but it seems that no adjustment was
reached. The halfway strike is still
on, and the Keystone miners, all men,
bers of the miners union, are consider
ably split up over the unique situation

Arbor Day in Jackson.

Ursula Parlor No. of Jackson, N.
D. G. W., has selected March 10th as
Arbor Day, and in conjunction with
the N. S. G. W., and w. o. W., will
conduct appropriate exercises and en-
gage in tree-planting on the public
school grounds and grounds surround
ing the county hospital. Grand Presi-
dents Mrs. Ella Caminetti of the N. D.
G. W., and Judge Mclaughlin of the
N. S. G. W., will be present and take
part in the exercises. The orders will
march from Masonic hall to the school
grounds about 80 p. m. The school
children will probably swell their col
umns. The trees have already been
ordered and the school trustees and
Supt. LeMoin are making ready for
their planting. While the Grand Par
lor long since sanctioned the observ-
ance of Arbor Day, this is the first
time that our homo parlor has under
taken anything of the kind, but here
after it is their intention to publicly
plant trees on some particular day in
March. 1t is expected that all pio-
neers, county officers, including the
board of supervisors and the public in
general, will be present and thereby
encourage the promoters in their new
work. 1t has already been suggested
that next year the various parlors in
the county meet and plant trees along
the public highways. Everyone should
turn out on the afternoon of the 10Th
and make it an occasion long to be
remembered by the citizens of Jackson.

SUPERIOR COURT.
HON. R. c. RUST, JUDGE.

HON. h c. RUST, JUDGE.
People VS.. T. J. Manhire-Defendan
appeared in court Monday morning to
receive sentence, having pleaded guilty
to charge of rape committed at Anna
dor City on the 28th of January. He
was without counsel. The court in
pronouncing judgment said that the
case was one in which the extreme
penalty of life Imprisonment could be
given, and the minimum was five wears.
The court, however, always takes into
consideration plea of guilty, and the
saving of expenses to the county in
volved in trial. Under the circum-
stances he sentenced him to ten years
in state prison at Folsom.
People VS.. Vincenzo Paleti-Defend-
ant was brought up for sentence Mon
day, having pleaded guilty to a charge
of robbery committed on the I'd of De-
cember, when in company with two
others he enticed one Vincenzo Moro
peta to place near the east shaft of
the Kennedy, and relieved him of $3.50
in cash and a nickel watch. D. B.
Spagnoli appeared for defendant, and
pleaded for light sentence, stating that
it was the first offence, and that he had
never before been accused of crime;
that he was not of criminal bent, but
on this occasion was enticed into wrong
doing by two evil companions. It was
also said that out of the spoils of rob-
berry the defendant received S45 as his
share, and in his behalf it was prom
ised that he would return that sum
when his term of Imprisonment had ex-
pired. The court again stated that it
would take the plea of guilty and the
consequent saving of expense to the
county into consideration in fixing the
punishment, and would deal leniently.
He was ordered imprisoned at Folsom
for 10 years.

TRUST RUrlOR DENIED.

For some time a report has
been in circulation that The Key
stone Co. of Sterling, ILL.,, an in
dependent firm, had been bought
out by the international Harvest
er Co. This new independent
company has created in a short
time a reputation that is annoying
the combine.
The reports of the changed
ownership had their origin thru
Rodney B. Swift, who has just
recently beenindicted by a grand
jury and placed under arrest for
conspiracy. He is also charged
with frauds in the patent business
running high into the thosands.
Numerous communications
from A. j. Platt, over his sigma
ture, as secretary of the Key
stone Co., show the reports to be
untrue. He says:
AS to the international Har-
vester Co. owning the factory of
the Keystone Co. This report
has been in circulation ever since
this company was organized more
than two years ago, but if the In
ternational Harvester Co. owns a
dollars worth of stock in the
Keystone Co. we do not know it. y
In another denial he writes, re-
ferring to Mr.. Swift and the har-
vester trust: ''We regret that
they should have seen fit to at
tempt to mix us in a wash of
dirty linen. The international
Harvester Co. has no interest
whatever in our business" This
is signed The Keystone Co. by
A. ]. Platt, secretary.
Consideringthe source of these
quotations they must be correct.
