TEACHERS MAY
TIE UP SCHOOLS
MOVEMENT TO STRIKE FOR Be-
TER PAY AND REFORM.
THE CHAIN LETTER PROCESS.
viii Ask State to Fix Minimum Wage
at $50 Per Month, and Make
School Houses More
Sanitary.

Webster City, Ia, March 1.-THE
school teachers of Iowa, believing that
more is demanded of them than OF
any other class of state employees for
the same pay, are seriously agitatflg
the matter of combination to force
their requests for more pay. They
are asking that a minimum wage of
$50 be fixed. 4Ae endless-chain let
ter system is being used in the fur
tnerance of their plans ami big
strike throughout the length and
breadth of the state is threatened un-
less their demands are acceded to.
Great apprehension is felt by the
school boards lest the threatened
strike become reality and the
schools of the state become paralyzed.
The endless chain letter being used
by the teachers is as follows:
Dear Teacher: Owing to the pres
ent and prospective shortage of teach
ers in the state the time is ripe for
us to inauguraTe certain great re-
forms, first of which is an increase of
wages, second that our pay checks be
sent us by mail, and third that the
school houses be made more sanitary,
comfortable and attractive.
I'VE may be able to do this, first,
by refusing longer to work for the
miserably low wages which have been
paid heretofore; second, by petition
ing the state legislature to fix wages
at, say, $50 for a third-grade certifi-
cate, $50 for a second-grade certifi-
cate and $40 for a first grade. (Texa3
pays $75,) Third, If we can do moth
ing else l suggest that we organize
as branch of the labor UNION, when
we can protect each other and our
selves. There is a great shortage of

PARIS HAS LIGHT AGAIN.
Electricians Strike Ended, But Public
Sees Future Danger.

Paris, March 1.-THE city resumed
its normal aspect Sunday night. All
the electric plants are working.
The public Is alarmed at the ease
with which a few hundred workmen,
at the instigation of the Confederation
of Labor, are able to throw the popula-
ton into confusion, and the newspa-
pers print editorials demanding legis-
lation which will prevent workmen en-
gagged in supplying a public necessity
from striking. 1t is pointed out that
the electricians, now that they know
their power, may not rest content with
present conditions. 1t is a significant
fact that the strike committee is still
holding meetings.
