UNIONS DEMANDS
Are REFUSED
NEVADA CALIFORNIA POWER
COMPANY AT BISHOP HAS
BUT FIFTY MEN.


the employees of the Nevada Califor-
mia Power Company at the power
plant, near Bishop, Cal, but fifty
men of a force of 200 are employed.
The power company has refused to
accept the wage scale presented by
the union, which is an increase of
approximately $1.00 a day for all
classes of employees who are within
the jurisdiction of the Western Fed
Grafton.
c. W. Hobbs, general manager for
the electric company, has conferred
with the representa- lives of the Fed
Grafton, of whom Robert Randall,
the official representative of the ma
tional executive board, is the head,
and explained to them that the COM
pany cannot grant the demands of
the union.
1--WE have no objections to the men
organizing" said Mr.. Hobbs, "but we
cannot grant the demand they have
made for increased wages. We are
paying now 5000 a day and board
to laborers, and other employees are
paid on that basis. We are doing d
large amount of work in the way of
increasing the capacity of our plants
and the money to pay for this work
was raised after careful computa-
ton of the cost, based on the exist
ing wage scale. So far as the pres
ent service in Goldfield is concerned,
it will have no effect, as we have
ample power for present needs, but
will be delayed in the completion
of our duplicate power line, which
would eliminate, practically, any
danger of shutdown because Of ac-
cidents to the line"
The farmers of Inyo county and
residents of Bishop are taking hand
in the game, and oppose any further
increase in the wage scale, claiming
that it will ruin their business. A
prominent resident of Bishop is in
Goldfield today and consented to dis
cuss the matter.
Half dozen of us conferred with
Mr.. Hobbs the other day relative to
the situation he said Before the
Lower plant was started over there
we had no trouble. We were paying
$50 to $40 month to farm laborers,
with board, and had no trouble in
getting all the help we needed. Since
work commenced the wages have
doubled. Our business won't stand
a further increase, and we are OPP
posed to it. We haven't bothered
the organizers, nor said anything to
them, as yet. The fact is, when the
power company gets through with it's
work, say in year, the men will
have to go back to the farms and
ranches for employment. They will
demand the same scale of wages the
company has been paying, and we
can't stand it,"
The power company has practically
completed the line to Bullfrog. and
has sufficient power in the plants now
in operation to supply that camp.
The transformer house and switch
station for the big mill of the Pitts
burg-Silver Peak at Blair is not fin
ished, however, and until the matter
of wages is settled the Pittsburg-
Silver Peak Company will not be able
to get the power for the mill, as the
men have all Joined the union and
have been called out.
The Federation has posted circu-
lars broadcast declaring strike OF
at Bishop and warning men to STA
away from the camp.--Goldfield
Chronicle.

What is believed to be one of the

needless. Bell & Robinson have put in

is as good as any 10c. cigar ever made,
yet it it retails for sc. straight.
Just see how easy it is to break off
that 1Oc. cigar habit by smoking "Chico."

big trade on these cigars that give a
