The TeIegraphers' Strike

The operators Of the CONNER
cial Telegraphers' Union employ
ed by the Postal and Western
Union telegraph. companies ari
still out on strike, now beng or
the eighth week. While the Off.
Gals of both telegraph companies
claim they are handling all bus1
ness offered, the officers OF the
union are equally positive that
the telegraph business is demor
allied; that not tenth OF the
normal business is being handled
at any OF the principal offices
and that the greater portion q
all business accepted by the tele.
graph companies is being sent by
U. S. mail, and by special messen-
gers with suit cases between the
larger cities in the east. Both
companies still accept business,
but subject to indefinite delay
and at the Sender'S risk. "
AS the telegrapher's union
claim its membership is compos-
ed of more than 90 per cent. OF
the commercial operators OF the
United States. it is difficult TO un-
.derstand where the telegraph
companies can get men to I'LL the
places of the strikers as it is well
we'll known that under ordinary
conditions there was q shortage
of good operators.
SO far, neither side shows any
signs of weakening and as the
operators have adopted as their
slogan the word "stick, and are
wearing badges showing but
that one word ,itlooks as though
it will be a fight to a finish.
President Roosevelt has been
asked by various boards of trade
and other commercial bodies
throughout the country to step
in and get the telegraph COM
panies to arbitrate or come to
some other means of settlement,
and now the Chicago City Coun-
Gil has adopted resolutions ask
ing the President to take such
action; also requesting the coun-
ellis of other larger cities to res
olive on the same lines, but as
vet there seems to be no move on
the part of Mr. Roosevelt. "
The telegraph companies offi-
cials claim the strike is over, but
anyone using the telegraph for
urgent business will readily dis
cover that such is not the case.
AS yet the railroad operators
have not been drawn into the

struggle, but trouble may devel-
ope for them at any time The
O. r. T. has pledged itself to give
all possible financial aid to it's
sister organization in its strug-
gle against present conditions,
and newspaper reports say that
the membership on two promi-
nent roads are now seriously
considering vote to strike in
sympathy with the Commercial
Telegraphers' Union.
The operators employed by the
Associated Press are also out on
strike for an increase in pay, bad
ly crippling the newspaper SER
vice, resulting in very meagre re
ports. The Scripps McRae News
Association, the Publishers Press
and the Hearst News Service
were among those to first sign
an agreement with their operat-
Ors, consequently their business
is not interrupted.

Was Decisive Battle.
The battle of Lutzen was the deci-
sive battle in the Thirty Years war,
the struggle for supremacy between
Professionalism and Catholicism. Protes-
tanism was thought to be lost cause
when Gustavus Adolphus, king of
Sweden, appeared in the field as its
champion at the head of redoubtable
army of Swedes. After having gained
two glorious victories at Leipzig AMI
Lech, the march of the triumphant
Swedes was disputed at Lutzen by
Wallenstein at the head of the imper-
ialists. A bloody battle ensued in
which more than $4,000 were killed
and wounded, Gustavus Adolphus him
self losing his life in the heat of the
conflict. The Swedes became infuri-
ated upon the death of their leader
and won the day. The battle proved
the turning point in the war.

Lad Grabbing IN nrsrieo.

Our neighbors south have their land
tenure problems, too. and incidentally
Americans are interested. Taxes on
land have always been merely nominal
In Mexico. though from time TO time
there bias been discussion az to the I'm
position OF higher taxes and sometimes
propositions to use the taxing power
with the deliberate purpose Of breaking
up the large holdings.
The acquisition Of grazing and tim
Der lands and In some cases Of large
tracts Of iFrigable land toften for the
planting Of colonies Of immigrantD by
foreigners, principally Americans. Is
arousing discussion, says United States
Consul lie Roy, writing from Durango.
The middle class, for the most part
landless, seems particularly concerned
over the matter. and there Is apparent
a growing disposition among the Mex
leans In the larger towns who have
capital to emulate the foreigner In the
speculative purchase Of the hitherto
undevelOped lands which, as communi-
cations improve, may become valuable
for the timber thereon and subsequent
y for grazing and agricultural pur-
poses This movement comedies with
a more active interest In such pur-
chases on the part Of Americans. At
least this has been notably the case In
Durango since the latter part Of 1905.
and the land market now Is more
active than ever before.
In the state Of Durango fifty-five pro-
prietors own over 10000 acres each, or
nearly 100000 acres between them.
This 10 the larger part OF the total area
held In private ownership. One estate
holds 100000 acres, and six others
cover over 10000 acres each. These
large holdings absorb the best lands In
the state, and what remains unoccuplad
