Street Car Companies at War.

A dispatch from Caldwell says:
Wednesday morning about O'Clock
the superintendent of motive power
on the Boise valley with gang OF
men, commenced pulling the spikes
at the crossing of the Boise & Inter-
urban with the Boise Valley at the
intersection of Tenth and Arthur
streets.
The Boise & Interurban people had
evidently anticipated move of this
kind for they had men on guard.
who Immediately called the chief of
police, who put the leader under ar
rest on the charge of destroying
property. He was later released on
a $50 bond.
This morning about 10 o'clock the
entire force of men on the Boise
Valley pulled the spikes, removed the
rails and ties of the Boise & Inter-
urban, and then pushed the only
passenger car the road has over the
crossing of the two roads and 1t was
still there at noon.

eo1DFIELD's LABOR WAR.
Miners OF Nevada Camp Repudlato n
Former Agreement.

The proposition submitted by Seua-
tor Nixon, president of the Goldheld
Consolidated Mines Company. to the
Goldneld union OF the Western FEEDER
alton of Miners. has been voted down
by the union, says a Goldfeld dis
patch to the Tonopah Bonanza, The
union then submitted a proposition to
Senator Nixon. which contained a
clause which means in effect that tho
watchmen at the mines shall come
from the union.
Senator Nixon's reply to this was
that It was impossible to consider 1t,
that the provisions once accepted
would make 1t impossible to operate
the mines. The committee told the
senator that the union wanted an
answer TO the proposition and would
not accept any counter proposition.
As the matter now stands, the Mo-
hawk ana Combination mines and
the Combination mill are all shut
down. Before the miners return 10
work the union INSISTS on Jprisdic-
ton over all men working In and
around the mines and mills, irrespec-
tive of time Of their employment or
nature OF work. except managers and
superintendents."
That last clause In the demands of
That means that the watchmen shall
belong to the union, that everybody
else shall belong to the union who
gees into the mines to do any work
whatever. That is where Senator Nix
on and General Manager Finch balk-
ed, and where negotiations ceased.
ITO accept proposition like this"
said Senator Nixon would mean that
the mines could not run. 1t means
that our electricians, our surveyors
and fnachinists could not go into the
mine. We expect TO install a great
deal of machinery in the mines. The
machinists could not go into the mine
with such an agreement in operation.
The machinists belong to another fed
Grafton and could not join the West
ern Federation without giving up
their own union. This we know they
would not do. Electricians cut an i'm
portant figure in the mines, and they
do not and would not belong TO the
Western Federation.
"As to the watchmen, We had agreed
that they would be neutral, the COM
n ittee from the miners union signing
with Mr.. Finch and myself. AS far as
the watchmen are concerned, we VIII
never give In to the union the appoint
ment Of them. The watchmen must
remain neutral: they cannot be menu
bers of the Western Federation of Min
ers."
The vote by which the original pro-
position was turned down was no to

ton of the miners union which Is
about 5000 strong, and does not eX-
Dress the sentiment of the miners in

That Supplied Smelling Town De.
clared Absolutely Pure.

The water supplied to the citizens OF
the busy smelling town of Garfield has
been found TO be as good as any OBJ
tainable by State and City Chemist
Harms and his report. therefore. has
set aside any doubt which might have
existed heretofore on that score. The
management of the company. how
ever, has been satisfied for long time
that the water contained no impurities.
but TO be absolutely sure of II, Mr..
Harms was employed TO make an ana
lysls. In his report TO General Mana
ger Whitley he states; THE water is
OF exceptional purity. Nitrites are en-
tirely absent. Upon gentle heat, the
residue cmits no foreign odor, neither
does It cinder, char or blacken. The
amounts of free and albuminoid am
monla are remarkably low. Equally
low is the proportion of oxygen con-
sumed, amply confirming that no con-
tamination by sewage, seepage, drain
age and other sources or pollution has
taken place. In my opinion, the above
water Is perfectly III and absolutely
safe for all culinary and drinking pur-
poses, in fact. It forms very desirable
one for all household uses"

CANADIAN RAILWAYS.
Contractors Have More Business Than
They Can Easily Handle.

New York, Aug. 27,-Canada is hav-
ing n period of railroad building that is
proving embarrassing, contractors hav-
ing more available business than they
can conveniently handle, and there be-
ing a dearth of essential facilities. This
may have a deterrent effect and delay
for some time in the awarding of con-
tracts for 200 miles of the Grand Trunk
Pacific between Edmonton and Prince
Rupert, which the management is pre-
pared to let. American contractors
cannot be Induced TO bid for work
across the border owing to heavy du-
ties levied on construction outfits, these
varying from 20 to S5 per cent, which is
practically prohibitive. 1t is doubted
that the outfits could be bonded
The situation is akin to that created
by the attitude of labor in British Col
umbia, objection being made to the i'm
portation of Asiatics TO do the work
required, although there are not enough
men in Canada to meet the demand.
Henry Phillips, secretary OF the rail-
road company says:
''lf the government wants the road
completed on time 1t is for them TO see
that those interested in getting it built
are enabled To get contractors and la
borers outside Canada If a sufficient
supply cannot be secured in the Domin-
ion"
