MEN GIVE THEIR SIDE OF
STRIKE
(Pocatello Tribune)

Calmly and dispassionarely, with
strong arguments and pointed conclu-
sions, the striking shopmen last
night gave their side Of the case at
a public meeting held at the Auditor
ium theatre. Frank Pugmire, gen.
eral vice-president of the Brotherhood
of Railroad Carmen, was the pincipal
speaker, and it was through him that
additional facts OF the controversy
between the allied shop crafts and
the Hartman lines were given to the
public of Pocatello. Mr.. Pugmire Is
not an orator, but he Is an earnest
defender Of the rights Of labor. He
gave an unbiased history Of the
events which led up to the declaration
of strike on the Hartman system
to enforce a demand for recognition
of the Federation of Shop Employees.
He explained that only through some
powerful central body, such as the
federation, can the allied crafts se-
cure a betterment of conditions. He
expressed a firm belief that the
weight of sympathy is with the strik-
ers and that the controversy can have
but one end-victory for the men,
whom he adjured to stand firm.
Mr.. Pugmire's address was along
patriotic lines and he was greeted
by liberal applause at telling points
in his address.
A number of business men made
short talks. Former Mayor w. n.
Cleare of the Peoples store said he
was not party to the controversy.
but tremendously interested out
slider whose interests are involved. |
This was not case, he said, where |
the onlooker saw most of the game, |
for to understand the real merits of |
the dispute one must be on the In
side. Not being familiar with the
inside workings, the speaker was un-
able to enter into discussion of the |
merits of the case.
However, he paid high compli-
ment to the men involved. He was
sure, he said, that the great body Of
the public appreciated their orderly
conduct Of the strike. The men have
added to the respect in which they
and their organizations are held by
their actions. While demanding
rights for themselves; they are re-
specting the rights of others by re-
training from violence or disorder,
and when the day of settlement i
comes, the speaker was sure it would
be great asset fer them.
Mr.. Cleare said the business and
professional men of the city are an
Kious to have the old men retained
IN Pocatello and the familiar faces
Of old friends. They recognize that
he strikers have always been import
unit factors in the upbuilding of the
Gate City, and they do not care to
lee the new faces of those who have
lad no part in the past. 1T would
,e a glad day. said Mr.. Cleare, "for
Ill the people of Pocatello when all
he old men resume their places" =,
AL T. Jones, for years prominent
ocal labor leader, gave short talk,
n which he pointed out that during l
Mr.. Harriman's life the latter had on I
more than one occasion advised the {
and traimmeu to make t
heir demands in a body in order to t
Eliminate a series of discussions and /
differences. He felt sure that had a
Ar. Hartman been alive when the v
resent trouble arose, strike would ]
lot have been necessary. a

CLEVELAND OWNER
LAUGHS At SCHEME
Fletcher's Plan to Invade
Lake City Is Ridiculed
by Somers.

CLEVELAND, Jan. 14-CIeveland is
TO be in d. A. FletCher's third hg
league, which is said to be backed by
Pittsburg capitalists, and is TO start in
1872
Until this week Cleveland was not in
tne proposed new circuit. The change in
Flctcher's plans doesn't seem TO worry
the Nap owners. President Sommers
says little figuring puts Fletcher clear
of the baseball map.
1t would require S50O.OOO TO put new
team in Cleveland" said SOmers. That
Is what park near enough the down
town section would cost. The entire
league would Coset $J,O00,OO0 The inter-
est on that would be 5000 which
would make the venture a risky one to
start with. Bigger salaries than are
h"lni paid now would have to be given
the star players. The whole $1,000, 900
would have to be raised before another
move was made, because the players
would not leave the other leagues un-
less the money was in sight.
Then, too, the big leagues would
naturally fight back. They would try
to protect their investments, which
FletchCr'S hackers would have to con-
slider. Fletcher is worrying no one but

held in Baltimore Saturday, January q,

of the best swimmers of the East on its
team. and they made "a points to the
81 points made by the Philadelphia
team. Last year these same teams COM
peted, and the local team was able to
score only points.

encouraging to the local boys. The
Philadelphia team defeated the Central

Mcfarland and Wolgast
Are Reported Matched

NEW YORK. Jan. 14.-But little Gre
dence is placed in the report here that
Packy Mcfarland and Ad Wolgast are
to box ten rounds in Milwaukee on Feb
ruary -.
Mcfarland says the bout was cinched
Just before he and Emil Thiery boarded
their train for New York. New York
sports believed that WolgasL doesn't
want any OF McFarland's game, particu-
larly in view Of the fact that the light
weight champion has fight coming
with Owen Moran that Will mean a
small fortune for him
The Wolgast-MOran fight would nat
urally fail through if Mcfarland bested
WOlgast, and it is the danger of such a
result that will cause Wolgast to steer
clear of the stock yards lad until after
his fight with Moran, sports here be-
lieVe. Mcfarland is training hard for
the three bouts with Goodman, Young
Erne, and Tommy Murphy.

postponed. BY January 20 it is ex-

condition TO meet the University of

BUFFALO, n. Y, Jan. H.-Unless
there are some unforeseen changes in the
modified six-day bicycle race at the
Broadway Arsenal during the early rid

while two will have to go, mile sprint
to decide second place, and no less than
four are tied up to contest the last po-
sitions in the final mile sprint.
Two sprints. one by Lloyd Thomas, of
the Mormon team, and the other by
Clarke, of the Australian team, are ac-
countable for the change in the posi-

in rugged fashion, but Abe was usually
out when Patsy called.
Once Kline seemed to have Attell
In trouble, but the latter pulled himself
together, and did little faster foot
work throughout the remainder Of the

Pleasing to Minors.

The latest ruling Of the National Conf
mission, relative 10 the drafting OF
players from the minor leagues by the
majors, is considered the best news
the lesser circuits have ever received.
Discussing the matter, the Omaha
Bee has the following to say:
statistics are not available to show
what percentage of drafted players eth
mostly minors, but we venture TO say
that it is at least % per cent, if not
more. This works a hardship, often,
on both player and tn" team from which
he was taken, whether it is the one to
recover him or not If il does not re-
cover him, It has lost for the minimum
amount of money its best player, and
if he is traded, possibly lost him to
one of its rival teams, AS has been the
case with Omaha, and nearly every
other minor league.
"Or, if It RECEIVERS him. nine times
out of ten, the players usefulness -
the team is impaired because of his dis
COntentment and disappointment. He is
sore at being let down and the chances
are, where the minor team owner feels
hc cannot justly meet the salary rate
which the PLAYER was to get from the
major, is sore at that. and will put IL
most of the time pOuunS. Serious mis-
chief comes from just such abuses.
The commission seems to be III earn
est about this matter, for II has pre-
SCribed rather strong penalties. | n
dOubtedly it was forced to take this
radical action largely because Of thy
practice OF one particular National
Ipgue owner, who has apparently
taken liberty for license on many oc-
casionS on the assumption that a win
ming team carried with it some sort
of special privilege for its owner.

Credit to Ad Wolgast.

1t is doubtful If there ever has been
a champion pugilist who has been so per-
sistantly flayed as has Ad Wolgast ever
since he won his title.
The principal objection to Wolgast
seems to be that he insists upon the
lions share of all gate receipts, and on
this score writers in al. sections have
the fighter on the block.
Try to recall a single champion of the
ring who did not demand all sorts of
unreasonable divisions of purses. When
Nelson met Cans the white man had

ment, and now Wolgast is being severe
ly criticised for doing exactly what the
