THE STRIKE FAILED
TeleGraphers G citing Back in Line
Companies can DO without Them

Telegraphers G citing Back in Line
Companies can DO Without Them
THE strike is over" So asserts Vice
President and General Manager Nally OF
the Postal Telegraph-C Gable company in a
statement of the case issued recently.
A copy Of this, received by Frank S.
Gould, manager for the Postal company,
makes it plain that the company considers
the strike virtually at an end, and that
recalcitrant operators must get in line
quickly if they expect to pound keys for
this company in future. The general
managers ultmatum reads as. follows
The statements being made by the
strike leaders that negotiations are pend
ing. or influences at work or pressure
being brought TO bear on the telegraph
companies to bring about settlement OF
the strike through compromise or other
wise are untrue, and their recurrence
from day to day is simply for the purpose
Of misleading the men and buoyIng them
up with false hopes which will never be
realized.
1--WE consider the strike is over hence
there is no need for further negotiations,
can only repeat what have reiterated
before That we will deal with such Of
our old men as apply individually for
work as long as we have places for them,
and as we are adding to our force by the
employment of outsiders every day, tha
longer our former employees delay putting
in their applications the less will be their
snow of getting back their former posi-
tions. say this sorrowfully, because
there are many of the old men we have
highly PRICED, but we cannot, with justice
to the men who have stood by US, dis
charge any to. make room for strikers"

This convention was held at Lake

and written by our dear president, Mrs.
Laura Benedict. who has so recently been
called to rest.
Mrs. Benjamin of Portland. district

very instructive report of the temperance
work in that sunny land. Mrs. E. D.
Lambertson and Miss Edna Worden were
the delegates from Orleans, Miss Pearl
Foss and Mrs. Mark Morris from Belding.
All were delightfully."- entertained by the
Lake ODESSA local Union. The meeting
was success in every way, considering
the incemency of the weather, While all
seemed happy and full Of courage for fu-
ture work, many were the expressions
of sorrow for the death Of our most eff

Resolved, that we feel this work has
sustained an almost irreparable loss.

THE LECTURE COURSE
A Fine one Planned for the Coming
Season

The Star Entertainment Course an
nounces its talent for this years course.
commencing Oct. 81 with the Macdonald
Concert Co., Col. Robert Seeds Nov. 20,
Rev. Geo. L. McNutt Dec. 6. Prof. Ed
ward Amherst OFT Jan. 81. the Temple
Quartette Feb. &c. The committee has
spent great deal of time and pains in
selecting the talent and feel that they can
recommend the course as being the
strongest and best ever presented TO the
Belding public.
The opening number given by the Mac
Donald Concert Co. is composed OF four
artists; two vocallsts. Ruthven Mac Donald
baritone, and Emma Haush Dawdy. con-
tralto; Mrs. Mac Donald. pianist, and Rose
Ford violinist. This makes very strong
company.
Col Robert Leeds is said to be one Of
the funniest men on the American plat
form. Leeds is like Sam Jones in one
respect. He is the only one of his kind,
He is story teller that is hard to beat.
In investigating his reports we find him to
be one of the most popular humorous
lecturers.
Rev. Geo. L. McNutt is known from
New York to San Francisco as The din
ner pail man." As thinker he is pro-
found; as an orator, unique. He is
graduate of Princeton university and for
fifteen years pastor of the leading
churches in the middle west For the
past eight years he has associated him
self with laboring men in the university
of hard knocks
Prof. OFT was to have been with us last
year. but owing to sickness was unable to
fill his engagement He comes to US so
highly re m m g d the committee
thought best to book him for this season.
His popular lecture. Sour Grapes" every
one in Belding should hear. Prof. OFT
gave this lecture at Lincoln. Neb.. the
home of Americas greatest orator. William
jennings Bryan. The press OF that city
paid him this compliment: prof. Otis
style of delivery is perfection itself in that
it is perfectly natural. The quality of
voice is the nearest to that Of the Hon.
William Jennings Bryan Of any orator it
has ever been our pleasure to hear.
The Temple 0uartette will need no in
PRODUCTION. Those who heard them last
year will surely be glad to have them re-
turn this year. Besides this most excel
lent quartette, there is an added induce
ment in the lady entertainer. Lucy Lee.
an own sister to the famous Katherine
Ridgeway. This makes the Temples
more attractive than ever.
Further announcements will be made in
regards to season tickets, etc.
