GLUCOSE MERGER
STILL IN AR
Independents Not Yet Pre-
pared to Admit Com
bination.

While numerous reports were cur
rent in financial circles Saturday that
the independent glucose companies not
connected with the Corn Products Re-
filming company were preparing to eff
feet a merger nothing of a substan-
tial nature could be learned of the
proposed consolidation.
1t was said the independent concerns
were going to combine their capital
and interests in an effort to put up a
successful battle against the so-called
trust, which at the present time prac-
tically controls the output of the corn
products factories. Among the com
panies said to have figured on the
mergers are the American Maize Prod
uct company. the Hubinger company
and the Irwin Bros concern.
One of the manufacturers of glucose
said Saturday that rumors of a merger
had been in the air for some time. but
that no official action had been taker
to effect a consolidation of the indie.

MAY
BE POSTMASTER

Edwin Price, postmaster, who mas
held the position of postmaster OF
this city for a period of twelve years
on the expiration of his present term
which occurs some time toward the
close of the year, is to have CON
testant for that position.
AT no time in that period has ne
had any serious opposition to his sue
cessive appointments under the Nc
Kinley and Roosevelt administrations
but it seems now as if there is to be
a determined opposition made to his
appointment for another term OF
four years, at the expiration OF ms
present term.
Yesterday William G. Struthers'
former republican sheriff of this
county, was circulating petition,
among members of the republican
party for signatures, for his applica-
ton for the postmastership of Grand
Junction The petitions seemed to
be most literally signed by large
number of well known republicans.
An auxiliary petition was for the sig
natures of the business men favor
able to Mr. Struthers' appointment to
that position.
When asked regarding the petition
Mr. Struthers did not deny that he
was an open applicant for the posi-
IL.
had large number of signatures OF
the men who have been active in the
republican organization in this city
Speaking further on the subject
| Mr. Struthers said to The Sentinel
man that he could see no reason why
he could not as an American citizen
make application for that position as
well as Mr. Price. He said that the
| latter had held the office under three
administrations and he thought that
some other republican was entitled
| to make application for the position
and secure the same, if he could. He
had always been a staunch supporter
of the republican party and it was
generally agreed that the party had
worked for Mr. Price to give him that
position for long time and that
now Mr.. Price could hardly expect
that no other republican might not
attempt to secure it If he could.
How many signatures Mr.. Struth-
ers had to his petition The Sentinel
cannot say but from the very hurried
| examination permitted it was seen
the names of many well known re
publieans were attached thereto and
the number filled very closely several
pages of legal cap.
Asked If he thought he had any
show of winning out against Mr..
Price Mr.. Struthers modestly said
he thought he had. He said at least
he was going to make a most desper-
ate effort to secure the appointment
from President Taft and If he did
not secure. he would be a loyal re-
publican still. At least he remarked
there is no harm in making the ef-
fort This is free country and there
is no life tenure attached to any ap-
pointiye position, therefore. he
thought he was amply justified in
attempting to secure this appoint
ment. so long held by Mr.. Price.

SWitchmen's Charge Against
Trainmen Brotherhood
Unfair, He Says.
MAKES STRONG COMEBACK
HEAD OF LOCAL ORGANIZATION
SAYS THAT THE SWITcHMEN
ARE KNOWN TO RAiLRoADERS
AS TROUBLE MAKERS.

In regard to the bitter attack made
on the Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men by the Switchmen's union, which
liz contemplating q strike at Chicago.
Charles A. Sehi. president of the local
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen,
stated that the charge that the Broth
erhood was not labor union because
OF the fact that they ordered their
men back to work, was unjust and
untrue. Mr.. Sehi declared that the
Switchmen's union was a separate
and distinct organization and had
nothing whatever to do with the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, or
any of the other different organiza-
tions
Mr.. Sehi declared that the Switch
men as union in the larger cities
were not looked upon with favor by
the roalroad brotherhoods.
Known As "snakes."
He stated that they had earned the
name of Snakes" from the emblem
which they wore. which is large
capital So" He stated that in the
larger cities the switchmen were call
ed "wigglers" and had earned a bad
reputation for continually causing
trouble in railroad circles and stirring
up strife and a general feeling of IN
rest and discomfort.
When asked If the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen or any Of the 9TH
er brotherhoods would join the
switchmen in their strike, Mr. Sehl
stated that he was of the opinion that
there was very little likelihood of any
such occurrence taking place. He as,
serted that he thought the switchmen
would be alone in the strike. Mr. Sehi
stated that President Hawley of the
Switchmen's union was largely re-
sponsible for the trouble and seemed
to be waging the whole campaign.
"Everything is Hawley with the
switchmen." declared Mr.. Sehi, land
there lies the seat of the whole
trouble Mr.. Sehi asserted that
members of the Switchmens union
took the places Of other men ON strike
and that they had gained bad repu-
tation for 'scahbing."
