GENERAL STRIKE IN HUNGARY

Budapest, Oct. 1o-With business at q
complete standstill, all shops closed, and
fully 1GOl000 workmen engaged in demon
strauons in more than 150 cities, the open
ing Hungarian Parliament to-day had the
significance of the general demand for
universal suffrage brought home TO il in q
manner it will hardly dare 10 ignore.
For twenty-four hours the paralysis of
business viii continue. This great pass
i've resistance strike was organized TO
impress Parliament and leaders in the
suffrage movement believe il viii succeed.
So complete is the tie-Up that it was
necessary t0 requisiti1n soldiers TO cp-
crate gas and water works. No attempt
has been made TO run trains. Even news
papers have been compelled to suspend.
Fearing disorders, soldiers are under
arms In all cities. though kept in the
background TO avoid melting violence.
TO-day's demonstration Will probably
amount TO a peaceful revolution which
viii modernize Hungary, destroying the
power of the mobiles. Passage Of the uni
versal suffrage bill will be a great vic
tory for Emperor Francis Joseph, who
raised the issue himself to distract attcn-
ton from the attempt 10 force separa-

Alexandria. Va, Oct IA marked
state Of apathy among the Democrats OF
this section with regard to the November
election IS now giving the party leaders
some concern. 1t is stated that they do
not anticipate any reverses, but they fear
that SO many Of the Democratic voters
will remain away from the polls that the
party's majority in some Instances viii
be considerably reduced. This is an
eventuality which the Democrats are said
to be particularly anxious now TO avoid,
as 1t would naturally tend to strengthen
the hopeful view which the Republicans
are fostering Of being able in the near
future 10 win out at the polls In this sec
tion OF the State.
The reason for the lack Of interest In
the Democratic ranks Is stated 20 be the
feeling of complete security, based upon
the we'll recognized preponderance OF
party strength In this vity and district
the Democratic nominations have for
years been practically equivalent 20 elee-
tions. The Republicans, however, point
to a comparison of the votes cast at sue
ceeding elections IN the past ten years to
prove their contention that they are grad
ually gaining strength in this section.

THOMAS DUNCAN

Thomas Duncan was born in Jem-
town, Indiana, in 1949 and spent much
time in Iowa until 1876 when he came to
Salt Lake City. In 1879 he came to
Blackfoot. and has witnessed the settle
ment and development of the country as
| it came on, faster with each succeeding
year, until now, lands are being taken
up for farming which until recent years
were not counted among the agricultu-
raj possibilities. Yet observation proves
that the poorest lands were selected
first, and that the more recent selections
have been the best, tho requiring greater
canal systems than was first thot feasible
or even thot of at all in the connection
with agriculture.
Mr.. Duncan made the Mines Ditch
which runs thru the south part of
Blackfoot, and was one of the earliest
ventures in ditch work here. He
helped build the old Snake River Toll
Bridge, was the first road supervisor
appointed for the west side of the river,
and helped build the first school house
over there, when the district reached
from a point about ten miles above
Blackfoot, to some point near American
Falls. Of course the children living in
the lower end of the district did not
come that forty miles to school. In
fact they were not there, but dozens of
new houses on the Carey Lands down
that way. tell different story now.
Mr.. Duncan was one of the projectors
of the Watson Slough Ditch, which is
one of the oldest canals in this locality |
He lives acorss the river just west of
town, but is visiting friends and rela
tons in Iowa now
