ING CONCERNS.
ACTION IS TO BE TAKEN

Effectual protest against oil being
permitted to be thrown into White
water river by local manufacturing
concerns is being planned by COOP
erative movement between local
sportsmen and the farmers south Of
the city. whose property abuts the
stream. Attorneys and the officers
Of the newly organized Wayne county
Fish and Game Protective association
will undertake to rid the streams of
this nuisance.
The oil and waste matter that is
poured into the Whitewater at this
point is very injurious to the fish.
Sportsmen claim the Whitewater
would be almost an ideal stream for
game fish If it were not for the injuri-
Gus substances allowed to poison the
water. Other streams in the country,
which are very similar to the White
water contain these fish and instead
Of taking advantage of the stream at
home. anglers are forced to seek other
banks from which to cast their lines.
Complained Long Time.
For many years farmers whose land
Il adjacent to the Whitewater south Of
the city have been complaining. They
claim stock of nearly all kinds refuse
to drink the water from the stream.
Practically all the sewage from the
city is turned into the river and to this
form Of pollution the factories add oil
and other waste material. The
stream is in such condition south OF
the city that boys refuse to swim In it
and that Is regarded as sure indica-
tion there is something very seriously
wrong with the water.
The fish and game society will hold
meeting May 10. at the court house.
It Is believed that by that time the pa
pers OF Incorporation will be complete.
All charter members OF the society are
expected to attend as well as all pro-
spective members or those interested
Farmers are invited especially to be
present.

CARPENTERS UNION

Sixteen New Members Taken

ORGANIZER KLEIN SPEAKS
WHILE THERE IS MUCH LOCAL
BUILDING, THERE ARE ENOUGH
CARPENTERS HERE 70 HANDLE
ALL or THE CONSTRUCTION.

Another step toward unionizing To-
cal labor was taken at Odd Fellows
Hall last evening, when union OF
carpenters was organized. The new
chapter took in sixteen new members
and it now has over 100 names enroll
ed. National Organizer Klein. was
present and conducted the meeting.
He felt well pleased with the enthusi-
asm shown.
Receive an Increase.
An increase of 5 cents per hour for
the labor of a union carpenter has
been ordered. This advance will
mean much to the carpenter as 1t will
average an increase of $3 per week.
The carpenters object to the repre-
sentations there will be large
amount of building in this city this
summer, as misleading in its tone.
They say there are enough men follow
ing that work in the city to take care
of any building now contemplated.
They believe the stories about large
amount OF building will tend to bring
a large number of carpenters from
other cities, and after arriving here
they will not find any work for them
to do.
Local plasterers have formed a union
and indications now are that all
trades will be represented by union
organizations within few weeks.

and the other wanted that, but boiling
down all Of the expressions OF opinion

general sentiment was for substantial
