PENDULUM SWINGS BACK.

The warmest local option race in the
history of this country and perhaps in
Kentucky, came to close last week and
Somerset has gone wet by majority
of sc. The dry" side worked as never
before, parading all day with two brass
brands. Women and children. by the
hundreds served coffee and sandwiches
and gave out prohibition literature.
Somerset is the first town in the state
and perhaps in the United States to vote
wet alter voting dry during the past
five years. 1t is conceded by conserva-
tive business men that the election is the
result of the vote of the careful business
men of Somerset, who have watched the
city take big slump in the past two
years, and who have watched hundreds
of blind tigers flourish within the city
and county.
For the past week from five to ten
dry speeches have been made on the
streets by prominent prohibition workers
of the state The "wets" made no DEM
onstration on hearing the result, feeling
that it is far best for the city to have
well-regulated saloons than blind
tigers" with which the officers have been
unable to cope.
A special tax voted on the business
houses of Somerset to make up the
deficit caused by taking away the saloon
revenues is said to have been the main
cause for so many of the leading citizens
of Somerset voting wet"

With the Butte union of metal miners
voting affirmatively, the Western Fedora
ton of Miners and the United Mine Work
ers are at last united into one great or
ganization of labor under the American
Federation of Labor. Only the routine
of organization remains to make the min

affiliation will come under the direct jur-
isdiction of the A. F. of L. Efforts in
the past have always failed for the rea-
son that Butte, the mother organization,
stubbornly refused to support the project.
The uniting of the two miners organiza-
lions will make it the second strongest
afiliation in the country.

are actually importing stock from other

ary Denver firemen are said to receive
the smallest salaries of any firemen in
the country. and it is claimed by the
friends of the ladies that since the in
crease in-the price of living commodities,
and the fact that the firemen are required
to pay for their own uniforms. the price
of which has also advanced AZ per cent,
it is difficult for them to get along. The
salaries now range from $40 to $S5 a
month, according to the length of time
they have been in the service. The in
crease that will be asked for is but $40
a month, which will make the highest
salary of the oldest in the service $95 a
month. The increase cannot be granted
except under charter amendment and
the charter cannot be amended except
by majority vote of all the qualified
electors. The citizens will be given an
opportunity to vote on the question at
the spring election.
