Piece Of Foraker Strategy
The inquiry was set on foot by For

stIategy-to place Ro seYelt before
the country as a president who had
exceeded his legal and constitutional
powers; and with the further design
of alternating from him the great ne

tha. the arbitrary assumption Of power
or his part had been used to prevent
negro suspects from enjoying their

4 Three.Man Strike.

Notices have been posted around the Clifton district calling all fair minded men to join the Western Fedora tion and cease work at once. The notice is addressed to the en- plOyes of the Arizona and Shannon Copper companies and is signed by H. F. Kane, editor of the "Christian'' '' Advocate, G. w. Williams, public builder, and w. D. Stewart, a ma chinist. The strike is called by Cliff ton Mill and Smeltermen's union, the exact membership of which is not known. But judging from the man. ner in which the notice has been answered, the membership is con-
 posed of but three members, as the works of both companies are running in full blast and so far few new men have made any pretense to join the Western Federation band located in Clifton, which has been advoca- ting strike ever since it started. Fair minded men have long since realized the detrimental results of strikes, even when conducted under the auspices of qualified leaders. They have already committed their ability in even talking about strike in such times as the present and the working men of this district, who are looking after their own interests, will certainly turn down a silly proposition like the above notice pre- sents.
 Workingmen in this district, many of whom have lived in other sections, seem to be pretty well satisfied, and not very many of them have as yet starved. A glimpse of the many cozy homes in the camp is convincing evidence.
