I'VE Don't Expect Trouble"
Declares Mr.. Ridgway|
General Manager Of the Rio Gan Declares Contracts will be Abrogated Tomorrow
Peaceuy-Says Men will Lose Nothing by this Acton-Bands Reported
Cut in Teegaphers Wages Says Rio Crande Has
Contracts With Men Not With Unions

OF all the telegraphers to $50 per
month. After explaining the absurd
ity of placing all the telegraphers in
the service on a fiat scale, Mr.. Ridg-
way said:
"a large number of our telegraph
ers are working for SIS q month.
Some of these men will hereafter
work 9 hours a day instead of IL
as formerly. The monthly pay of
these men. however, will not be af-
fected. They will continue to re-
ceive SIS per month. The company,
not the men, will stand the loss by
the reduction in the working hours.
We have never announced any re-
duction in the pay of telegraphers,
and do not contemplate doing so.
ION next Friday the agreement
between the company and the shop
men of the Rio Grande system will
be abrogated. Wages and working
conditions will remain the same as
at present. The men lose nothing
by the abrogation of the agreement.
The company will continue to treat
its employees with the same fairness
that has been characteristic of it in
the past"
Open Shop, Certainly.
"Under the new plan will the op-
en- shop be established"
well, you could hardly call it an
open shop. The company has al
ways reserved the right to hire any
one it chose in its shops. Our agree
ment was with the employees, not
with the labor organizations. The
same conditions will prevail. The
men will work under shop rules that
will be consistent with the policy of
the company and the best interests
of the employees.
The daily sentinel. [volume] (Grand Junction, Colo.) 1893-current, 1908-03-12

THE stories circulated to the eff
feet that the company was forcing
its men to sign contracts are fool
ish. The shop rules that the COM
pany is establishing were submit
ted to the men, but no contracts
were signed. l do not anticipate any
trouble of any nature with the men
and / believe that following March
1 practically every man employed
in the shops of the company will
remain in the employ of the rail-
road. There is absolutely no reason
for stirring up any trouble
will the pay for overtime be
changed?"
present. Our shop rules will all be
fair and the men will be treated
justly. If any employe or set of en-
ployes has any grievance of any ma
ture, We will be glad to confer with
them as individuals. though not as
committee representing \ union"
Men Seeking Conference.
While Mr.. Ridgway is In Salt Lake
committee representing the shop
men of all the shops on the Rio
Grande system, Is in Denver seeking
a conference with the management
of the railroad relative to the i'm
pending trouble. In Mr.. Ridgway's
absence it is probable that the men
will endeayor to arrange confer
ence with C. A. Schlacks, vice pres
ident of the Denver G Rio Grande
railroad.
Alfred Smithen. the representative
of the shopmen of Salt Lake, went to
Denver Sunday to meet with the rep
resentatives of the employees of the
other shops on the system to decide
on a course OF action.

The daily sentinel. [volume] (Grand Junction, Colo.) 1893-current, 1908-03-12

Some interesting statements re-
garding the railroad situation were
made yesterday in Salt Lake City to
the Salt Lake Herald by General
Manager A. c. Ridgway of the Dem
yer & Rio Grande, who was In this
city Tuesday.
Mr.. Ridgway declared emphatical-
~ that the stories circulated to the
effect that the salaries of the tele-
graphers of the Rio Grande railway
would be reduced are without foun-
dalton. He said that the hours of
some of the men would be reduced,
hut that the monthly salaries of the
men would remain as they are at
present.
With reference to the trouble aris-
Ing between the shopmen and the
railroad company through the abro-
cation of the agreement between the
company and the men, MI. Ridgway
said there would be no reduction In
wages or material changes in work
ing conditions in the railroad shops
and that the company expected no
trouble. He said that the agree
ment was with the men as employees
and not as a labor organization. He
expressed the opinion that the old
employees would remain in the COM
pany's employ and said that the con-
ditions and wages would remain the
same as under the agreement.
No Reduction for Tefegraphers.
Mr.. Ridgway said that the com
pany had never even contemplated
abrogating the agreement under
which the trainmen were working.
He said all rumors to this effect were
as groundless as the one to the eff
feet that the company had an
nounced reduction OF the wages

run their counties. If we set the
tax rate at 81 cents on one hundred
acres you would pay So 20 to the
county, and you would not have
to pay any taxes whatever on your
improvements. Now figure up
your tax for both State and county
on land worth $1,000 per acre.
Your entire tax would be II 7-Io
cents per acre or. only SII.7o
year on one hundred acres. If
your land is worth $4,000 per acre
your entire tax for the State and
county would be IS IL cents per
acre or $3.50 on one hundred acres
and this would be the only tax the
farmer would have to pay, thus
you can see that Wilmington would |
pay as much tax as all the rest of
the State put together and so it |
for it has more land value |
than all the rest of the State put to-
gether and so it should, for it has
more land value than all the rest
of the State, and receives more bene-
fits than all the rest of the State.
The receipts Of the State this year
just ended were S63S, o6I o.. The
entire salary list of the State was
s5z5o3. 80. The State paid out
last year $500, o47.oI, Our receipts
rom railroads, telegraph and other
amounted to S24S,474.3I.
Add to this the $500, 600 collected
rom land values. Thus the State
would raise S648,474 81 and this
would give the State ample revenue
ind we could exempt all other
Kings from taxation.
Milford chronicle., 1908-09-11

which the land is worth $4,000 pc
acre, his tax would be IS cents pc
acre, another mans land is worth
$40 90 per acre, his tax would be
20 cents per acre, another man S
land is worth 500 90 per acre and
his tax would be 80 cents per acre.
A hundred acre farm worth 500 90
| per acre would only pay $4,000 a
year to the State. A hundred acre
farm worth $1,000 per acre would
pay $500 year to the State. If
you only had so acres which was
worth $1,000 per acre, you would
only pay So. so year to the State,
and if you had only 10 acres you
would pay so cents a year to the
State.
Thus the State would collect from
Sussex county on SIS 900, 90 Of
land value at the rate of so cents on
the hundred $4,000 and the same
amount from Kent county making
total of $3.50, 900 from the two
counties and from New Castle
county the State would collect on
$50, 600, 900 OF land value $3.50, 600
making a total of 500, 900, thus
you can see that New Castle county
would pay SIoo, 900 more to the
State than both the lower counties
combined and the greater part of
this would be collected from Viii
mington as it has much more land /
value than the rest Of the county
and more than Kent and Sussex /
combined.
Now suppose the county COVER
ment does the same thing and the
land of New Castle county, includ-
ing Wilmington, is worth about
$50, 900 900, Kent county is worth
about $4,000, 600 and Sussex
county is worth about SIS 900, 600,
and say it takes 5000, 600 to run
New Castle county. If we tax it
40 cents on the hundred we will
raise $780, 600. Thus ifyOur land
IS worth $1,000 per acre YOU would
pay 4 cents per acre to the county
and if your land was worth $50 90
per acre you would pay 20 cents
per acre TO the county. Say Kent
and Sussex need 100000 each to

FIRE RAVAGING

Flames Now Threaten Several
Large Towns.
SETTLERS FIGHTING FOR LIFE

over 600 Penned In BY Fire at Grand
Marais and Battling to Subdue the
Flames-Women Are Frantic With
Friaht-AII Business Houses at Hib-
bling Closed and the Men All Out
Fighting the Fire-Day Is Dark As
Night and the Heat From Flames
Oppressive.
Duluth. Mimi, Sept. 9.-Forest fires
which have been raging for several
days threaten Hibbing. the largest and
most prosperous town in the Mesaba
range. The flames have been getting
closer constantly. Every place of bust
ness is closed and the men are all out
fighting the flames. A telegram from
Hibbing says:
"The fire is very near the Great
Northern spur on this side of Brook
lyn, a suburb of Hibbing. and the
wind is blowing in our direction.
THE city has all available hose out
and every man we can find is fighting
the fire. They have established a
pipe line and instilled two pumps. The
sky is clearing Of smoke somewhat
now, but we are threatened on the
north"
In response to an appeal the Duluth
fire department has gone to the scene
while the Mesaba railroad has trains
in readiness at Hibbing to take the
people away.
Smoke from the forest fires which
surround the town makes Hibbing so
dark that the electric lights have been
turned on there in the day to enable
the citizens to see their way about.
The smoke is sitting and the heat
very oppressive. Unless the wind
changes, Coleraine and Bovey will be
safe.
According to late advices iIo- the7r
towns the situation looked serio 5. but
the wind is now blowing the nre in q.
opposite direction from the towns. The
schools and business houses are all
closed and everyone is prepared to
fee.
Grand Marais, Mimi, on the north
shore, is on the verge of the fire. The
women are weeping with fright, and
the worst part of the situation is that
there is no avenue of escape open, and
over 500 settlers are fighting for their
lives. AL J. Smith. county attorn ~

party escaped to Grand Marais in 2

Grand Marais, smoke begrimed. bu n
ed and exhausted, with packs of their
most valuable belongings on their
backs and their families dragging be
hind them.
When Mr. Smith left the fate Of
Grand Marais was in doubt. The citi-
zens were loath to leave their homes
and belongings without making
fight for them, so many of them re
NAMED behind.
Mr. Smith says that an east wind |
would bring on the destruction of |
Grand Marais in an hour and no power /
can save the town. If fire comes be |

population will be in doubt.
There has been no rain in part of |
the fre-stricken country for fourteen |
weeks.

deputies, a fleet of 200 oyster vessels
sailed into SinepuXtent bay. possessed
themselves OF its waters and began
illegal oystering. The bay is dotted
with the sails of the craft as far as
the eye can reach. The sheriff Of Wor-
cester county and his men have no
difficulty in Identifying the offenders
and the latter make no attempt to es-
cape detection. They simply declare
that, law or no law. they intend to
take the oysters and do not propose
TO be prevented from doing so. Their
Offense is in taking understood oysters.
