ADVOCATE RIVER
TO RIVER ROAD
Meeting To Be Held At Highmore
On july 18th.

movement in Central South Dakota
between the Missouri and jim rivers
are planning for a monstrous River.
to River Road Convention at High
more, July 18th.
Highmore is exactly between
Pierre, on the Missouri River, and
Huron, on the jim, and the Com
mercial Club of Hiqhmore has, in
the past two wears, moved the rocks
and secured grades on a large part
Of the roads running into Ugh
more.
The road will run through WoIscy
Washington, Vayland, St. Lawrence,
Miller, Highmore, Holabird, Har-
rold and Blunt. This road is the
finest natural highway in the state,
there beng practically no grades,
and it is presumed that the boards
Of county commissioners Of Hughes,
Hyde, Hand and Beadle counties
viii lend their efforts IN the secur-
ing Of this model highway connect
ing the cities Of Huron and Pierre.
The road runs nearly straight east
and west from Huron to Blunt, and
can, without any great difficulty, be
placed in good condition.
Large delegations Of automobile
owners, farmers and representatives
Of the Commercial Clubs of the re-
spective cities are coming, and it
will be a gala day at Highmore.
Reduced rates will probably be Sc
cured on the railI Dads. Invitations
have been sent to Hon. +. c.. Issen-
huth of Redfald and Hon. Joseph
l.. Parmley of Ipswich to be present
and deliver addresses, Governor
Wesley Of Tierre is expected to be
here, and the River to River High
way will soon be a reality
1t is expected, after this start has
been secured, that the highway will
be extended to connect with the
River to River road in Iowa and
Commercial clubs of towns in the
southeastern part Of the State are
making preparations to extend it in
their direction. This would make a
continuous highway from Pierre TO
the Mississippi River, and will I'M
doubtedly be one of the best known
roads IN the United States when il
is finished.
The city council of Highmore, the
board of county commissioners, and
the commercial club will be ready to
oaIiver the keys of the town 10 the
visitors OF our neighboriag cj.Ics
when they arrive, and it is ho,.a
that by fall the road may be ..n-
p.eted.

Mir. LangWorthy sad he Would De wiIIinq to do in behalf of the town whatever the contractors agreed to oo in regard to wages. but of course the town council would not authorize the signing of any agreement So far as he was concerned he would be willing to comply with the strikers demands, that is pay 21 cents an hour Tor an eight-hour day, and time and quar- ter for the extra hour of nine-hour day The work of the town must go forward and if home laDorers will not do the work. other laborers must be secured, as it is not advisable to de- lay the public work.
 Remarks faVOrs. ble to agreeing 10 all that was agreed to by the contrac- tors, and in opposition to the importa ton of labor, were made by Aldermen Flynn, Maxson and Culley.
 Secretary Di Pietro of the union explained in detail the demands of the laborers and urged that the council do it's share in effecting settlement [. He asked MT. Langworthy if the town would pay the men 21 cents ar hour for a nine-hour day. and he received "Y es'' as the reply: and this was aft CT .ur LangWorthy had said that i? the contractors agreed to the demands the town of Westerly would do like wise, even to the payment of time and a quarter overtime.

There was 8 general dis cussiOn of the laborers' strike, pre- cipitated by Angelo Cappucio, who called attention to the fact that the highway committee was inviting trou- ble by sending out of town for labor CTS while there were so many Vest eriy residents unemployed. Mir Cap- pucio said that Westerly should be more progressive and give more con sideratiOn to home labor.
 Judge John W. Sweeney stated that ne had visited four of the principal contractors and they had agreed to the eight hour day at 2t cents an hour as demanded by the International Hod Carriers and Building Laborers' union and the only difference that existed was in regard 10 teamsters and the length of time that the proposed new bill of prices should be in force. Some or the contractors wanted a fVe-year agreement. the same time as the the quarrNmen and the striking laborers would not oppose two years agree ment. So there was prospect of set tlemert. He said he would like to see the highway committee fall into line with the contractors.
