STRIKE MAY BE
SETTLED
80 Per Cent. of Men Return to
Work. Strike Declared
Unconstitutional

DULUTH, Mimi, Dec. 3.-As re-
suit of a meeting of the Brotherhood
of Railway Trainmen, 80 per cent OF
the striking switchmen returned to
work today, most of them for the
Northern Pacific. 1t was decided that
the order to switchmen to strike was
unconstitutional and all were ad
vised to hold out no longer.
ST. PAUL, Min, Dec. 3.-Chief
ohm J. O'Conner of the police depart
ment practically admitted that he con
sidered the strike situation serious
today when he ordered that all mem
bers of his day force stay on duty
at central station until 1920 o'clock
tonight
The order goes int" effect tonight
and will continue until all danger of a
clash between strikers and strike
breakers is ended.

demise was not suicidal, but a nat
ural, perhaps somewhat accelerated,
departure from this life.
The young lady suffering from her
iherat-trouble, was still more excited
by her fathers insisting demand that
she return to the ranch, she rushed
up stairs to change her gown, the
eXertion was too much for her, her
trip-hammer heart caused her to feel
the choking in her throat, and natur-
ally she flew for relief to the strych-
nine bottle, quickly swallowing the
relieving mOrsel. she simply put on
the last straw which broke the cam
e"s back, the poor heart, already
overstimulated received the slash OF
the last supreme effort and then

Under those conditions the thought
of suicide was perhaps the most for
eign to her and her soul instead of
bearing the stigma of suicide, is per-
haps listening at this moment to
the voice of her Maker. "Welcome

BIG SHEEP MEN
OF UTAH
Object to Nevada Quarantine
And May Try To Enter
This State

The quarantine established by the
state OF Nevada prohibiting sheep
from entering Nevada unless they
have clean bills of health from in
spectors authorized by the bureau of
animal industry of the department OF
agriculture, has caused considerable
feeling among the sheepmen of Utah,
who have been accustomed to rang
Ing their sheep in the western desert
of this state.
The sheepmen of Utah assert that
If the quarantine can be enforced and
they are prohibited from trailing their
sheep from Utah to their customary
range In Nevada, they will be caused
to suffer great loss.
Dr. A. Young. state veterinarion of
Utah, Is quoted as saying that he does
not believe that such quarantine
can be made effective, as it would be
impossible to enforce the quarantine
against tae half million sheep now
being trailed westward from the Utah
summer ranges.
Sheepmen of Utah are quoted as
saying that it would require half of
the population of Nevada to properly
enforce the quarantine against the
Utah sheep men, and to maintain
patrol system along the border that
would stop the sheep in transit.
AS bitter as the feeling is among
the sheepmen OF Utah against the
action taken here, the feeling OF the
Nevada sheepmen is just the reverse,
They feel that the action that has
been taken is the only one that can
prevent the defamation of their flocks
by contact with the animals from
Utah that are diseased. The dread
full character of the disease and the
permanence with which it contamin-
ates the range on which the stricken
herds feed, gives the Nevada men
wholesome fear that in the event OF
the Utah sheep being allowed to come
into this state the entire sheep indus
try of Nevada may be ruined.
Nevada sheepmen have no COM
plant to make. They express the con-
viction that one of the most impor-
tant industries of the state is worthy
of the most vigiiant protection that
the state can give.

ideas. The balloon was always held
captive by strong cords.
He now felt ready to make his
grand experimental trial trip, but the
king would not allow him to go, as
he feared to lose so brave and scien-
tifc a man. Pilatre was in despair.
and at length the king said that he
would give him the opportunity to test
the safety of his balloon in the fol-
lowing way: He would give full par

CUT IN GRAIN RATE

Study of the Railway Commission
law of Washington indicates that the
grain rate issues, recently decided in
this state directly affecting the
Northern Pacific only, may be
brought to a focus this fall. with re-
spect to the attitude other railroads
may take, for the probability is con-
fronting at least the O. r. & n. that
it will lose a large share of the grain
tonnage from Washington competitive
points unless it meets the reduced
rate next month.
1t is admitted that reductions made
on rates to Portland from Washing
ton points must also. under inter-
state commerce regulations, apply
from equivalent points in Oregon, and
the principal question now confront
ing the Hartman road is whether it
is better to lose a share of it's Wash

ascent was majestic. and when at a
height of 200 feet the balloon swept
into a current of air that took it to-

S16,5OO,00O. During these hearings it
was admitted that the figures placed
on the value of the O. r. & n. could
not become a factor in determining
the reasonableness of grain rates in
Washington, for the reason that the
company's lines in Oregon were
branch roads, with the long haul in

that if a reduction were found neces-
sary in order to make grain rates
reasonable on the Northern Pacific.
the o. R. & N. company would be
compelled in order to protect its own
interests to meet the reduced rate.
The final rate order issued a few
days ago was delayed one year by
reason of the presence in the Wash

freight rate laws. 1t was a mooted
question whether the new railway
commission law repealed the old
statutes by application. and to save
all question on that point in the
