HUGE STRIKE BEGINS.



Between $4,000 and $4,000 union
workers on strike, 100 different
branches of industry affected and a
renewal of rioting in which two men
were shot is the situation which con-
fronted Philadelphians early Saturday.
The police are apprehensivc as to
the outcome. With thousands OF men
idle, forced to quit their usual voca-
tons as their leaders allege because
OF the obstinacy of the officials of the
Rapid Transit company. it will be an
easy matter to fan the spark OF dis
content into a fame of lawlessness.
Director Clay, however, has no hes
itancy in declaring that he has enough
men at his command to crush any up
rising.
The Rapid Transit company stated
Friday night that every effort would
be made to maintain trolley service.
Cars will be dispatched from all barns,
they state, at as near regular intervals
police protection is given.
= Encouraged by messages of sympa-
thy and of offers of assistance from la
Dor organizations from all parts of
the country, the union workers of
many trades ceased work at midnight
Friday and inaugurated what promises
to be one of the greatest sympathetic
strikes in the history of organized la
Dor. The committee of ten say that
at least $4,000 organized workers as
well as many ~unorganiZed sympathiZ-
ers of the street car men have ceased
work.
q Promptly at midnight members of
the union orchestras playing in the
leading hotels and cafes picked up
their instruments and started for their
homes. Union cab drivers and chauf-
feurs also abandoned their posts and
the hotel and railroad cab and auto
mobile service was badly crippled. The
drivers of both taxicab services in the
city are abe of a union and re-
fused to take out their machines after
the strike a gone into effect.
The committee of ten remained in
session at it's headquarters all night,
receiving reports from the various To-
cal unions.

Of humanity for a system of divinity.
Don't measure your truthfulness by
your dexterity in juggling with the
truth.
Don't ignore the difference between
beating your drums and beating the
devil.
Don't forget that he who knows no
God outside his church knows none
therein.
Don't fail to learn that finding some
n who needs your help is the best
cure for worry.
Don't get the delusion that you are
overcoming you W sins by advertis-
ing those of others.
Don't become so anxious about your
endings that you never get around to,
making a beginning.

haus. q wealthy baker OF New York.

cu1r1vAr1NG HEAVENLY POWER.

LAS = ASS
By Rev. Joseph II. Bradley.
Now we are in training for work -
the eternal world. GOD has purpose IN
~entrusting US with heavenly powerey
and the cody must be completely
FURNISHED unto every good work.
Such work must surely be an eXhilara-
ton and every opportunity to do %
an inspiration, and with 1mmortal
powers unhagging. Jesus has gone 10
prepare a place for us, and we are now
preparing for our respective places at
the right and left hand of God 10
honor and power, or in some lnfe-
rior class. according as our several
abilities shall be.
This work will be such as will glort-
fv God in the exercise OF HIS grace,
filing us with wisdom and might, and
love and Joy, that He may carry bless
ings to others. Truly, such as we who
have known God in the redemption OF
our souls, through Jesus Christ, are
above all other creatures, for by mis-
redemption we are differentiated from
all others, and so qualified in fullest
measure for such work; and being
thus qualified we shall not rest In
sloth and idleness throughout eternity.
We may be certain that if we have
not gained the faculty, and love to
work for others here and now, we
shall be the same hereafter. If we
fail to find work to do here, we would
fail there. 1t is inconceivable that
there should be drones in heaven,
where the Father works. and Jesus
works, and the Holy Spirit works.
There is sweet rest in heaven from
every fear and torment, with tlreless
and free exercise Of bOundless desire
and use of every occasion to do the
will of God, our Father, having the
mind of Christ in us.

RATE RULING HANDED DOWN.
Express Companies Victorious in Fed
craI Court.

Judge Garland, of the federal court.
Wednesday afternoon rendered a de-
cision which is a complete victory for
the express companies doing business
in South Dakota. He holds in sub
stance that the act of the legislature
did not give the board of railroad
commissioners authority to make the
schedule of rates complained OF by
the express companies, which was a
general reduction of 30 per cent from
the rates in effect January l, 1909.
Judge Carland's decision fully re-
views the act of the last legislature
providing for the reduction of express
rates and concludes as follows:
The words such schedule refer to
the rates established by the action,
and the power given is only to change,
modify and establish a rate in such
eschedule that has been found to be
unjust or too high or discriminatory.
1t seems clear that the Legislature for
fear it might in some cases do an
injustice by making a horizontal re-
duction in rates by sections 5 and 6 or
chapter 159 intended to provide a
remedy to the express company or any
person interested to complain in par
ticular instances of the injustice of Il
rate which would be created by the
provisions of section 4. AS the court
is of the opinion for the reasons here
in stated that the board of railroad
commissioners had ne authority to
make q schedule of rates complained
of, it is not necessary to determine
whether chapter 159 is valid legisla-
ton or not
Chapter 159 is the act of the legis-
lature regarding the reduction of eX-
press rates. Judge Carland's decision,
which was rendered on demurrers
fled by the railroad commission, vir-
tually throws the case out of court, as
there is nothing further to fight about.
