IN FAVOR OF A STRIKE.
Textile Operatives of Fall River May
Quit Work.

Fall River, Mass, Oct. 25.--AlthOugh
the Fail River Textile council which
held special meeting at night to con
slider the Tefusal Of the manufacturers
association to grant airect wage in
crease of slightly more than II per
cent, made no recommendation to the
various unions, the Indications point to
general strike before the close OF
the month. Special meetings of all
the unions will be held at once to vote
on the question of leaving the mills.
The textile council was in session
two hours in the evening and the sit
uat1On was gone over carefully by
representatives of the weavers, cord
ers, spinners. slasher tenders and loom
fXers' unions. When vote was taken
it was decided not to make a recon-
uendation of any kind.
The sentiment among the rank and
file Of the operatives, union and non
union, appears to be strongly in favor
of strike. Should the unions declare
for a cessation of work it is probable
that the operatives will withdraw from
the mills on Saturday with the inten-
tiOn Of remaining out.

STATUS OF NATIONAL lRRIGA-
ton PROJECTS in MONTANA
Survey Of Milk River Project is Now Practically Completed and
Construction Under Way Several Other New Projects are
Being Investigated by the Engineers of the
Reclamation Service

The government irrigation projects
in this state are being pushed along
now just as fast as the engineering
department is able to move. The
newest of Montana projects is the
Lake Basin project and the engineer
ing corps have been transferred to
this work.
In recent interview upon the
work in Montana, Supervising Engi-
neer Henry N. Savage said:
Reconnaissance surveys have been
under way for some 80 days todevelop
the possibilities of irrigating the
Lake Basin and Antelope Basin
territory, situated north Of Billings,
between the Yellowstone and Mussel-
shell rivers, where an area OF 100000
acres has been surveyed about one
half of which is likely to prove
irrigable.
IAN ample supply of water can be
secured from the Yellowstone river,
supplemented by storage reservoirs,
ample facilities for which exist
''It is not expected this project can
be developed for construction for some
time, but an Investigation has
urgently been requested for the past
two years. The withdrawal Of this
land from the public domain was
made under the second form, which
does not prevent homestead entries,
and large portion of this area will
be restored to entry Immediately
after the surveys have been completed
to determine the area actually IL
rigable. ..-
Assistant State Engineer Baker is
making plain table surveys Of the irri-
gated lands along the Sun river as d
oasis of the adjudication Of water
rights. This work will prove of per-
manent benefit to all water users
along the river and will lay the
foundation for the development of one
or more large projects.
"The engineers have completed the
flClN sui NCyS Oli IilS Ahllh INlfCl pio~
lect, and are now working up their
notes and making maps at Chinook.
The adjudication of water rights is
being taken up and commissioners
will probably be appointed to hear
the eyidince and pass upon the water
rights claimed.
