OPERATORS OUT
Over Six Hundred Nov Included
in Strike

At noon Monday the Western
Union and Postal operators in New
York followed the lead of other
cities and left their keys The As
sociated Press not receiving a favor
able reply to their demand for
certain concessions in the ma ter of
wages, the operators from one end
of the country to the other left their
keys at 7;30 Monday evening. This
is the frs: time that this great news
gathering machine with offices in
every country on the globe has
ever failed the people. The last
word to pass over the wires before
the walk out was to the effect that
General Manager Stone, of Associat-
ed Press, had asked for twenty-four
hours additional time in which TO
get in touch with the board of di-
rectors but the operators refused
this demand
The operators in their communi-
cation TO Mr.. Stone call for a fiat
increase of nearly IS per week for
each night operator and would
amount to approximately 100000
per year.
The o. r. T has pledged its fnan-
cial support 10 the striking COM
mercial telegraphers. The railway
operators have not become involved
in the trouble.

Indians Must Obey.

Before the Wisconsin supreme court
last week a case was tried which will
have far-reaching effect in regard to
the fishing and hunting of Indians
from the reservations of the state.
The case was that of Mike Morrin, an
Indian from the La Pointe reservation,
who was arrested some time ago,
charged with illegal fishing, and his
nets were confiscated and he was Civ
en- trial before the municipal court
at Ashland and was given small fine
The trial of the case at that time was
considered very important. Assistant
Attorney General Titus of Madison
was present to assist in the prosecu-
ton, and it was agreed by both sides
to make it a test case, and an appeal
was taken to the supreme court The
decision just handed down sustains
the verdict of the lower court in re-
gard to Indians violating the game
laws
Indians from the reservations have
heretofore made a practice of fishing
and hunting when and where they
pleased. The game wardens from the
northern part of the state will begin
arresting indians who violate the
laws.
