APPOINTED NEW COMMISSION.
Site for Home for Feeble Minded
Not Yet Chosen.

At meeting of the board of pub
lie building commissioners yesterday
a new turn was given the location of
the site for the institution for the
feeble minded, provided for by the
last legislature, says the Salem Jour
nal. The governor proposed naming
new commission, that are to go
over all the property offered the
state, and make selection. He
named VIM. Waldo and Os West, of
the State Railway commission. This
action was ratified by Treasurer Steel
and Acting Secretary of State Benson,
and Waldo and West will enter up
on their duties at once.
Mr.. West was seen by a reporter
today, and said they would consider
all the property the state had Sc
cured options upon, and would take
UP the points of greatest importance
sanitary conditions, wood and water
supply, and transportation facilities

would be ready in a few weeks t
submit their recommendation to tn

termination.

"If the strike is called by the rail-
road brotherhood officials at Chicago,
every man on the o. r. G. n. and
Short Line systems will go out and
those roads will be tied up tight" said
a we'll known railroad man today to
the East Oregonian.
while the men on the o. r. & N.
are hoping that the strike will not be
called, yet the system is solidly or
ganized and voted almost unanimous
ly for the brotherhood demands and
II the managers absolutely refuse to
grant the demands or any portion of

order should 1t come.
mo one who has ever gone through
a railroad strike can appreciate how
disastrous they are to all kinds of
business. The tie-up by floods and
washouts are bad enough, but strike
is ten fold worse, for all business and
every train will be absolutely stop
ped.
"That the railroad brotherhoods are
Is SIlDWH ny TIE IdCl tildt per
cent of the men employed west OF
Chicago are union men and voted up
on the strike in the recent referendum
ballot taken throughout the west.
"If strike is ordered now it will be
only after every other reasonable
means of settlement will have been
exhausted and in such case strike
would mean a war to the utmost.
Neither side would yield and it would
doubtless be long and bitter.
1.-The strike of the American Rail-
way union in 1894 was not successful
and many trains were operated even
at the height of the strike simply
because the men were not organized
thoroughly Today conditions are diff.
ferent. There are few boomer" rail-
road men and the entire force is
unionized and there would be no non'
union men to supply the places OF
strikers.
"The situation is serious and the
thoughts of strike and its disastrou!
effects upon the country at large
should spur every citizen to preven
such a calamity If possible"
