WORK ON OK BOW PROJECT.
$2,500,00O VIII BE Expended on
Electric Development.

Baker City, Aug. led. ]. Wins
low, general manager of the Ok Bow
electric power project. while here to-
day stated to a Statesman represen-
tative that he is working at present
with a force of about 80 men and that
the company has thus far expended
about 100000 IN preliminary work.
The plan is to install temporary elec-
trio generators to drive the air COM
pressors, the work OF the latter being
to operate air drills in cutting two
tunnels through the cutt-off.
The dam required will be a struc-
ture about 1000 feet long, with a
spillway to one side OF II. Just how
soon the drilling plant will be ready
for operation Mr.. winslow could not
say.
He said, however, that the work
would go ahead as planned and that
the project OF generating electric
power with the force of the Snake
river at the OK Bow site called for
an expenditure of $2,50O.00O.
Asked IL he expected the railroad
line. now building down the Snake
river, to reach Ok Bow by the end
OF this year, Mr.. Winslow said he did
not expect 1t TO be completed to that
point by January l, but thought II
would be soon thereafter.

the past two years he has been en-
gagged in construction work in Ore
gon, Washington and Idaho.
During his long service as an en-
gineer Mr.. Brandon has never been
in a serious accident of any nature
and the only injury he ever received
was a sabre cut below the right
knee, gotten while in India. How
ever, he was seriously III with a fe-
yer on two occasions, and his mar
riage was the outcome of a romance
of his last illness. In 1900 he return
ed from the Philippines upon sick
leave, and was taken with the fever
In California. At private hospital in
the southern part of the state he
was brought back to health by a
trained nurse who is now Mrs. Bran
don.
That he prefers civil engineering to
service in the engineer corps of the
army, is declared by Mr.. Brandon.
This is mainly because of the greater
latitude allowed man in civil life,
and to use a football expression, the
greater opportunities to run with

an arbitration conference this morn
ing. Neill told the officials of the
Unian they must take the whole ques-
tlon of arbitration to New York,

MES are located.
Small said: "The telegraphers are
striking for their just rights. We are
not seeking revenge, are not trying
to inconvenience the public. We are
willing at any time TO listen to prop
ositions from fair, honest men, but
are not willing to accept Clowry's s
buncomb. We have had enough of
that We realize that the strike
means business paralyzed and heavy
financial loss and suffering to the
members of the union also. We in
tend to make the most determined
fight ever waged by labor. We have
money and members and we will
win"
Gompers and Neill leave this af-
ternoon for the east to confer with
Roosevelt and Gompers with the ex-
ecutive board of the American Fed

pected an arbitration conference will

PORTLAND DEALS

PASSES ORDINANCE FOR
THEIR SUPPRESSION
Portland Is the First City of the
Country to Attempt to Deal Direct
Iy With This Problem-Was Car
ried by Council After Sharp De-
bate-Labor Interests Approved
the Interests of the Measure.

Portland, Aug. 16.-Portland has
taken a step that is new among the
cities of the United States by passing
an ordinance for the purpose of reg
ulating or rather supprcssing the
trusts. At the meeting of the council
yesterday afternoon the Belding or
dinance, the provisions of which will
be far-reaching If rigidly enforced.
was passed and the municipality is
now in possession of weapon with
which to fight the trade combina-
ticns that are said to have grown up
in many branches Of its commercial
life.
BY this action 1t Is said Portland
is the first city Of the country to at
tempt to deal directly with the trust
problem.
Even those who backed the meas
ure recognize in it an experiment, but
express their determination to see
that it is enforced and their conf
dence in its effectiveness.
The ordinance came before the
council with the recommendation of
the judiciary committee, consisting OF
Bennett, Vaughan and Ccllers. There
was brisk debate for a few minutes
and then it was carried, with only
three dissenting votes.
1t was expected that stubborn op-
position would come from the FEEDER
alton Trades Council, which feared
that the ordinance might be inter
preted as ruling against labor unions
A committee had been appointed by
the Federated Trades to oppose the
measur on these grounds and at III
solicitation Belding introduced al
amendment providing "that no pro
vision of this ordinance shall be helt
to apply TO labor unions" After thi
had carried, the labor interests ap
proved the passage Of the measure.

Owing to the extremely high prices
bid on the proposed levee work. 1t has
been decided by the levee committee
to change their plans in some partic-
ular. While a definite course of ac-
ton has not yet been worked out, 1t
is Councilman Murphy's opinion that
the idea of a concrete foot wall for
the levee above the Main street bridge
will be given up. Instead, heavy
rocks will be used in constructing a
foot wall as was done on the lower
end Of the levee last winter. 1t has
been found that such material makes
very fast toe for the levee, and as
the work can be done cheaper and at
any time of the year, the change in
the plans will likely be made.
To repair the levee as desired and
at the prices offered by the recent
bidders would involve an expense of

When asked about the demands to
be made, an official OF the union said:
THE dissatisfaction in the Western
Union service is general. and is prac-
tlcally the same everywhere. We in
sist that the company furnish type
writer's, and that the pay of first
class men be raised. Also that the
extra list" be cut down and many
men now regularly employed on this
list be put on the pay roll"
This statement needed amplifica-
tion, and It was made clear by stat
mig that Colonel Clowry was advanced
through the Western Union service
because of his promise to the direc-
tors that he would get dividends.
Colonel Clowry was a great divi-
dend getter," he explained. When he
received his appointment as superin-
tendent it was with the boast that he
would save to Western Union divi-
dends $4,000, 900 a year out Of operat-
ing expenses.
well, maybe Clowry did 1t. But
he took it out of the legitimate income
OF the operators, and he demoralized
the service, created discomfort and
finally brought on the great strike

many tricks he worked. One was to
make a high salary list for regular
employees. and then put everybody he
possibly could on the extra list for

That is the greeting you would re-
ceive on a sign had you chanced to
pass by the local telegraph office
early yesterday evening. 1t was
thought at first to be the true situa-
ton. but was later found to be a
Joke played by one of the messenger
bows. The local union men struck
yesterday when they were asked to
work with non-union men on the Salt
Lake wire. The wire became all
right about noon when Salt Lake
called Boise and was answered by one
of the union men here, who informed
Manager Hackett that he could not
take message from a non-union
Hackett that It was up to him to
take 1t or quit.
He quit, and Manager Hackett re-
ceived the message from Salt Lake.
He afterwards asked the other union
men to work with the Salt Lake wire
and was refused by all. They were
paid off yesterday.
The going out. of the union men
at this place does not materially
change the local situation as Manager
Hackett will work the day shift and
remained at his key yesterday when
the other men struck, will work
nights.
Manager Hackett stated last night
that he could have handled all bust
ness yesterday If the railroad men
would have let the wire alone. He
said:
I'VE could have received a good lot
of press reports yesterday If the rail-
road men would have let the wire
alone. Portland and Salt Lake offer
ed us Associated Press reports and
United Press reports, but could re-
ceive very little owing to the contin-
ual bothering by the railroad oper-
ators''
Not one message was received yes
terday from noon until about 5
O'Clock last night when the wire be-
came clear to ogden and a few mes
sages were received here. 1t was not
thought that the situation here will
be improved any today.
Why the Postal Men Went Out.
it SAT- L>hht NEWS VI AuS uSl
prints the following:
The strike of the Postal telegraph
ers was precipitated this morning by
an advertisement inserted in the
morning papers. It read: "Operaa-
tors employed by this company in
several cities of the south and west
having, without notice and without
good reasons, left their posts to in
dulge in a sympathetic strike. the
Postal Telegraph Gable company Of
fers permanent positions to competent
operators who apply at once. Apply
to w. s. Hawk, superintendent Postal
Telegraph Cable company, Salt Lake

-\s soon as this advertisement was
noticed by the Western Union men
at their strike meeting. which was
called at 10 o'clock today, a commit
tee was sent to call out the Postal
men, and declare the Postal office to
be unfair. The committee called and
succeeded in bringing the Postal OPP
orators back to the meeting with
them. They We're greeted with
cheers and applause on entering. A
few minutes later a committee con-
sisting of ]. f. Greene, j. w. Booth
and NJ. S. Riley was formed to visit
the newspaper offices which printed
the advertisement and made a report.
