When the government officials laid

Of it's geographical situation, they fore
saw the possibilities of city of great
commercial importance.
The site is strategic.
Pocatello is the gateway. The Port
neuf canyon Is really a narrow valley
that furnishes railroad pass n thou
sand feet lower than any other known
mountain pass for 300 miles north and
300 miles southwest--so that the heavy
traffic from the east and southwest
must pass through this gateway to
Idaho and the Pacific northwest-nnd
this gateway gives Pocatello the COM
manding situation which, with enter
prise, industry and capital. must in time
make 1t a city OF great commercial inn
portance.
COMMERCIAL CENTER.
Pocatelo is the educational, CONNER

southeastern Idaho. About 1900 miles
of trunk and branch lines run out in all
directions from here. These lines are
constantly being extended, connecting
Pocatello directly and closely with

LOCK OUT SO employees
WHO WENT OUT ON BIG
PHILADELPHIA STRIKE

PHILADELPHIA, March 11.-The
Electric Storage Battery company,
18th street and Allegheny avenue,
tuesday locked out ninety union leau
workers, because they. went out in
the general strike.
Inc company offers as an excuse
for this action the fact that these
men had asked for better and mors
sanitary conditions in the shops.
The department where the lead
work is done is very poorly venti-
lated, although ventilation is prim.,
requisite for those in this unhealthy
occupation. The toilets, in violation
of law, have no drainage. There are
no separate lunch rooms for the men,
who are compelled to breathe in lead
all day and eat it with their food as
we'll. This is another violation of the
factory laws. T..
These men are slowly poisoning
themselves with lead, and daily face
the fact that medical science has no
cure for the paralysis that slowly in
capacitates them. - .s.3.2

WASHINGTON, d. c., March IL
Commissioners of Labor Neill has been
exonerated of the charges recently
made against him by Thomas B.
Dawley, Sr., former special agent of
the bureau of labor.
The special agent alleged among
other things that Neill or other offic-
ials of the bureau acting under the
latter's orders, altered reports on
women and children labor in material
particulars, because the facts set
forth did not support conditions
which Commissioner Neill had started
to prove.
Secretary Nagel referred the
charges to Assistant Secretary Gable
and Solicitor Earle, Of the Depart
ment Of Commerce and Labor, for
investigation and their report fully
exonerated Commissioner Neill of all
charges made by the former special

was learned that information cor-
cerning the relations of. congressman
William J. Moxley, butterine manu-
facturer, with those of his customers
now under Indictment as oleO "moon-
Sinners" had been in the hands OF
high government officials since last
autumn, and that when Federal
Judge Kenesaw NJ. Lantlis here took

'tically snatched it away from what
ever officials made no use Of the tip
during the several months that have
intervened.
Assertions by the dealers that Mox-
ley furnished the wrappers fori one
pound prints of butterine labeled with
the stamp guaranteeing inspection
and passing by the government, coic-
eide with the information that the
revenue officers collected.
Today it was revealed that a Chi

circumstances in a letter to r. E.

nue. at Washington, d.. c.. and that
in this letter the question was asked
Of the department.:

The letter containing this question

Commissioner Cabell submitted it to
his chief, Franklin MacVeigh, Secre-

BOOST WAGES IN ORDER :
TO AVOID RECOGNITION
OF IRONWoRKERS' UNION

NEW YORK, March lit was
announced this week that 5000 iron
workers employed by the Iron League

increase of 80 cents day lin the
early part of January, bringing. the
wages up to $4.80 a day., would get

= he first of All the workers in
the employe of the association would
receive IS per day. SS~3' ~f~ :
,,t This is the highest wages ever re-
ceived by structural iron workers in
this city. It is said that the step is
taken by the employers organization
for the purpose of promoting the
open shop system, and is an answer
to the recent demand for recognition
of the Housesmiths and Bridgemen's s
Union. Following all the recent labor
victories the. employers feared that
there would be an outbreak in their
trade, SO they have taken this step,
and voluntarily raised the wages in
order to avoid the recognition of the
unions or a strike.
