STATE GETS

The state of Washington de-

ders today for 100000 of city
bonds to be issued for sewer pur-

N. w. Halsey & Co. Of Chicago
offered $104,082 for the bonds at
per cent interest, and Season.
good & Mayer of Cincinnati offer
ed $105,0S0 at per cent, with
100000 at Az per cent, but the
state came in and offered to take
the bonds at par at An per cent
interest and to allow the city to
redeem them as desired after one
year. The private bidders all
wanted the bonds to run the full
20 years.
The other bidders threw up
their hands when the state bid
was read, and the sinking fund
board awarded them to the
state.

so he favored Oklahoma City dul-
ing the recent vigorous campaign
that brought the state capital to
Oklahoma City by majority of
about $4,000. The newspapermen
told the governor that Oklahoma
City had won, when the drift of
voting indicated that result. He
Immediately came to Oklahoma

him.
In the meantime, however, an

Another big strike is looming VI
on the Industrial horizon. Tie
makers of ladies' garments have
just held convention in Boston
and authorized the national Off.

Chicago, Cleveland, Boston, Pitts

The garment workers intend to
level their hardest blow at the
evils of the sweating system, such
as low wages, long hours, child
labor, etc. They assert that while,
owing to bitterly fought contests in
the past, working conditions have
been somewhat impro red by tie
interference of state and munich
pal governments to enforce factory
inspection, the sweating system
still continues to a large extent
under new form in establish
ments where the workers are for
hidden to organize and are denied
a voice in fixing conditions under
which they must work.
The fight will come squarely up
on the issue of union recognition
and the arrangement of trade
agreements.

that city has committee at work

workingman a chance to preach.
Some of the clergy are falling in

sidestepping, probably for fear
that the workers might dig up
some of the radical utterances in
scripture and hurl them at the
heads of the brethren who Cypress

One reason why the labor party
swept Australia In the recent ma
tional election and established
labor government for the first
time in the history of the world is
due to the extraordinary self-sac-
rifice displayed by the working
people. Not only did thousands
live on the barest necessaries in
order to donate their mite to the
campaign fund, but cases have
been found where some actually
pawned the clothes on their backs
to raise money. In the sparsely
populated sections miners and
ranchmen travelled as high as SO
miles overland to vote. In Austria
liza everybody takes an interest in
politics. That's why party boss
ism is about defunct.
