TIE UP TERMINALS
SWItGhman From ST. Paul to Pa
CiiiC Coast on Strike.
ASKED INCREASE IN WAGES
Railroads Refused to ACcede to
Their Demands.

st. Paul, Dec. 1.--Switchmen EN-.
ployed in the railroad yards in the
Twin Cities, Head of the Lakes and
along the Northern Pacific and the
Great Northern to the North Pacific
coast have gone on strike. The off.
Gals up to the last minute refused TO
accede to the demands for increased
pay and the men carried out the ulti.
matum issued to the railroads on Mon,
day that they would quit.
The general conference committee
OF the switchmen involved in the pres.
ent movement claimed that all the
men ordered out In the territory
dropped their work at the time SEIZED.
uled. Officials, on the other hand
declared that good many switchmen
continued on duty and that the strike
is failure. The switchmen claimed
TO have tied up traffic effectively from
here TO the North Pacific coast, while
officials claimed tnat trains have con.
tinued in operation. Officials admit.
ted that difficulty was encountered in
handling trains at the freight ter.
minals, but traffic was moving salts
factorily out on the line and passenger
trains generally proceeding with com
paratively little delay.
The strike was pulled off quietly,
Immediately on the stroke of the hour
the men quit work and marched out
OF the yards. Meetings were held at
terminals affected and the plan of fu-
ture campaign mapped out.
Most Affected by the Strike.
The Twin Cities and the Head OF
the Lakes seem TO be the most affect
ed by the strike The officials admit
that the men in the Twin Cities yards
went out solid and the majority at the
Head of the Lakes, but say that at
several terminal points along the
Northern roads switchmen are still
at work. The Twin Cities. it is urged
is the stronghold of the Switchmen's
union and at other terminals the
switchmen are not so strongly organ.
ICED. The committee in session in
St Paul claims a membership oil
$500 to $500 in this territory. OF
which about 1000 are in the Twin
Cities.
The union switchmen of this terri
tory presented their demands about
six weeks ago. They asked for an in
crease OF cents an hour In pay, dou-
BILE pay for overtime. Sundays and
holidays. The present schedule is.
Day foreman. IS cents; day switch
men. SO cents: night foreman. 81
cents. and night switchmen, "a cents.
Improvement was also sought in work
ing conditions, ten hours day being
one OF the demands.
Attempts to settle the trouble by
arbitration proved futile. the men
claiming that the employees always
get the worst Of 1t In arbitration.

beers as a rule have always opposed the
giving of appropriations for the Board
of Agriculture and Forestry, because
its functions are not known to them.
The appropriations have been made
hesitatingly and only through certain
missionary work among them, by
those of their own people who take in
terest in the boards work, that the
appropriations were at all made. Even
the appropriation for the College of
Hawaii would ont have passed had not
the same kind of missionary work
been done among them with the as
surance of a certain amount of federal
aid.
But to knock at this resolution is to
withhold information that should BE
impaired to them. For the sole benefit
of the editor of the Advertiser, [ wish
to inform him, through your kindness,
| that he cannot Americanize the ma
iority of the Hawaiian people of the
present generation, not in the way he
would have them become. If he was
as consistent he would advise his poll
tical friends, during campaigns, not to
speak to them through interpreters,
but must speak solely into them in the
American (?) lingo, then surely he
will succeed in eventually American
izing all of the Hawaiian people, in
Guiding the "ex-citizen' as well.
1t is my humble and candid opinion
that the item asked for in the Tesolu-
ton is of more moment to the Hawai-
} l-ian people at large than is the item for
promotion work, which l consider as
! graft pure and simple of the first mag.
niture. And again, for the sole in.
| formation of your carping colleague
it was the same good missionary work
: done without pay. that made immigra
! tion and conservation a ppssibilitJ
! among the Hawaiian majority, the
convincing and other arguments pu
J forward made it, the same having beef
i, done in patriotic ardor as agains
