MEN QUIT
RAILWAY SHOPS OF
CANADIAN PACIFIC
Dispute Over Wage Schedule
Ends in Most Extensive Strike
in History of Dominion.

WINNIPEG, Aug. ct is estimated
today thai nearly Il, 900 Canadian Paci-
fic Railroad men are on strike. The
largest number out is in Montreal.
Fifteen hundred quit at Winnipeg.
Two thousand men left work between
Fort William and Vancouver, all at the
dictates of the executive committee of
the various unions affected. Eve old
workmen in line for pensions went
home and it seems TO be the most ex-
tensive strike in the history of railway
shops in Canada.
The railroad is now replacing some
of the strikers in Western shops by
japanese. Several coach loads were
brought in last night from the oun
tain sections of Swift Current and
Medicine Hat. Galicians do duty at
Moose Jaw. Japanese are being gath
erd on the Pacific coast and more are
expected today.
The crux of the strike situation lies
in the attitude of the engineers, fire
and conductors. Indications are
that four days hence the whole Cana
dian Pacific Railway service will be
tied up by these operatives refusing
to take out mails on the ground that

the trains have not been properly in
spected.
Approximate figures show that the
weekly payroll of the mechani-
cal department of the Canadian Pacific
is close to $3.50, 900. Thus, if the strike
lasts a month. 1t will take a million dol
lars out of the pockets of the 12,0 900 men.
The average daily pay of each man is
something under 81.
So far only the mechanical depart
ments are affected. 1t is understood,
however, that the trainmen will walk
out in sympathy on Saturday.
The officials of the Canadian Pacific
Railway refused to make any statement
beyond the declaration that they would
stand by the award of the board of
arbitration and Cancellation appointed
to consider the dispute between the
company and its mechanics.
There is but slight probability of gov
eminent intervention. From Ottawa
comes the information that the labor
department will make no further effort
to adjust the difficulties: that its deci-
sion in the matter of wage dispute hav-
ing proven unsatisfactory, there is moth
ing more that the department can do.
The men in Western canada are in
yolved in a dispute with the Canadian
Pacific over the new schedule, which
men refuse to accept. The eastern
men went out in sympathy.

FEDERAL PENSIONS TO COSFED-
ERATESS.

Every now and then somebody tries
TO create a movement for pensioning
confederate veterans by the federal
government, and every time it is done
the old confNderates express their dis
approval. The latest instance Of the
kind Is the adoption OF a resolution by
Hardee camp Of confederate veterans,
of Birmingham, Ala, in reference To
plan Of Congressman Hobson, of that
state, to have congress provide for
such pensions. THE resolution de-
cares:
While we appreciate the good inten-
tentiOns Of the distinguished gentle
man, feel assured such bill
could ever become q law. The offer
ing of such bin in congress would
result in the reOpening of wounds
Tong since healed and engendering
bitterness long since abandoned.
That is one good reason why Mr.
Hobson should abandon his purpose
The men of camp Hardee are correc:
in their predictions as to what would
be the result of an attempt to have
congress pass such bill.
There are other reasons just as good
Such a proposition, ii made at all,
should not come from a southern con-
gressman That is too much like the
survivors OF the Contederacy playing
the pauper act and begging aims FROM
the men who overpoWered them in the
conflict. Nor do we telieve the confed,
crate veterans would look upon the
proposition with any greater favor
did it come from an ex-federal. That
would look as much like offering aims
as the other like asking them. AND,
again, while we would rejoice to know
that every old confederate veteran
was to spend the balance Of his lie
in comfort and plenty, we think such
an appropriation by the federal gov
ernment would be wrong in principle.
We do not believe 1t would have the
right to devote the public monies to
such a purpose. Because congress
has often stretched its powers in max
ing appropriations is no reason why
it should be urged to continue to do
so.
If Mr.. Hobson wants to help the
confederate veterans let him do some
thing to stop the enormous leaks 10
the pension bureau whereby the gov
ernment is annually defrauded out OF
millions of dollars, Cntailing a heavy
burden on the tax payers. The south
contributes about thirty-five million
dollars a year to the pension fund.
The part of this which is paid out
under fraudulent claims should be saw,
eG to her people.
