POSTAL CLERKS
ARE Up IN ARMS
Largely-Attended Meeting Held
TO Protest Against Appoint
ment of Col. Page.
POSTMASTER THOMAS
SOMEWHAT WORRIED
Clerks Protest Not Made on
Personal Grounds: Nothing
Definite Accomplished.

There was a revolt among the postal
clerks in the Salt Lake postoffice yes
terday morning against the appointment
of Col. Henry Page as superintendent
Of mail carriers here and Postmaster A..
l., Thomas was. and is consid erably, un-
easy about the situation. AS n result
of the appointment and consequent re-
volt, a meeting Of the postal clerks was
held at Federation Of Labor hall We'd
nesdav night to discuss the matter, and
the gathering was largely attended.
The postal clerks raise several points
in their protest, if that be the correct
term. They do not oppose the appoint
ment of Colonel page on personal
grounds. but they contend. that while he
Is in the civil service he is not in tine
postal department, but the interior de
partment. It may be true that trans
fer can be made from one department
to the other, but they contend it is
stretching the rule a long way and an
outrageous injustice TO the men who
have been virtually a lifetime in the
postoffice, working hard for promotion
and then it is denied them. Besides,
they claim that to maintain an efficient
service a fully capable man should be
chosen, and Colonel Page, they say.
cannot make an efficient superintendent
been IN the service.
Personal Protests.
Wednesday nearly every postal clerk
in the office made a personal protest
to the postmaster, bat without result.
Colonel Page has a title and he is a
man of social position, they were told !;
different from the mere man in the of
flee. The postmaster is said TO have
been busy all day trying TO pacify the
clerks and may have succeeded in turn
ing some leaders from their course by
making promises.
But he did NOT succeed in averting the
holding Of that meeting, because it was
held. OF course. the clerks realize they
arc up against the federal bunch, that
cancer in the body polite of Utah, and
one Of the clerks said that "such a
thing could not happen in the United
States, Although there was nothing
definite done, plans were discussed.
The clerks have an association here.
bur one not affiliated with any body.
and an affiliation with the Utah Fed
Grafton of Labor was considered and
this may be done. There certainly was
much criticism of the action of the
bunch
Colonel Page, who has received the
appointment, is a veteran of the Civil
and Spanish wars, and after the former
served in the regular army, He was
collector of the port. of Nuevitas in
Cuba and was four times governor of
Arkansas.

BOLD ATTEMPT MADE
TO ROB A WAREHOUSE
Burglar Is Surprised While
Working on Safe, but
Escapes.

The Office and warehouse Of kauh'
man. Davidson & Scmmel, hide and
wool dealers. on the northeast corner
Of Third South and Third West, was
entered by a safecracker Wednesday
night at 1850 o'clock and the two
heavy doors of the large safe stand
ing in the corner broken open. Before
the safecracker had opened the inner
doors of the safe, Night Waterman
Jimmy Kenny, with his big dog Nick,
came in the back door as the safe
cracker fed through the front door.
There was $50 in the small drawer OF
the safe which the intruder could have
taken had he known about 1t. He
left a twelve-pound hammer, chlseI
and piece of cloth lying before the
safe on the floor.
At lOs4O Night Watchman Kenny
and his dog passed along the street
and examined all of the doors of the
establishment. As everything was IN
his beat. When he returned TO the
building at 1850 he found the back
door wide open and thought he heard
some one in the front OF the building.
AS he stepped into the door and cast
the light of his lantern toward the
front Of the building the safecrackcr
vanished through the front door.
Kenny Immediately gave the alarm
and Detective Howell, Patrolmen Kelly
and Griffin, with Patrol Driver Sulli-
van. responded TO the call. When the
men entered the building they found
where the safecracker had started to
drill hole into the inner doors of the
safe. His drill was not found but he
did leave clew upon which the de.
tective force is working.
