GIGANTIC INDUSTRIAL STRIKE
is SURE TO COME
Railroad Employees Preparing 10 Stop
Every Wheel Of Traffic to Enforce
Demands.

Chicago tens of thou
sands of employees or American rail-
roads great industrial strike Is al
most certain to come within six
months, say labor leaders here today,
unless the managers of the railroad
lines agree to a complete remoulding
of conditions under which the men
IN all branches of the services labor.
Representatives of the roads do not
deny that the outlook is grave and
both sides admit that should such a
struggle come, the Pacific coast will
witness the beginning of the strug-
gle. The preparations for the battle
are already underway.
The new combination of the indus
trial forces gathered under the
leadership of the railway employees
department of the American fedora
tion of labor and known as the "sys-
TEN federation" was organized dur
ing the last six months. 1t has pre-
cipitated what railroad men and en-
ployes alike admit is a crisis.
Each System federation" will rep
resent all different railway systems.
II VI years lne agreements between
the railroads and various branches of
the employees have been expiring on
different dates of different years. In
this way the railroads were protected
from a general strike and when one
of their departments went on strike
the work could be shifted to another
department which was under contract
not to strike until its agreement had
expired. Under the system fedora
ton scheme, however, all unionists on
any one system will make their agree
ments to expire on the same date
and year. This will make general
strikes possible and labor leaders pre-
dict will give opportunity for en-
forcement of their demands with a
greater prospect of success.

ANOTHER WEEK OF
CELEBRATION is SUCCESS

Astoria. Ore.-Astoria begins an
other week of her centennial with a
joyousness that is inspiring. The
great anniversary carnival has ex-
ceeded all expectations. 1t has prov
en- to be one of the most successful
expositions ever held on the Pacific
coast
But great as have been the attrac-
tions, splendid as has been the public
approval and attendance, the centen-
NAL committee is still adding to the
public enjoyment. There are attrac-
tions being added daily. 1t is like
modern extravaganza-each act hold
ing the interest all the keener.
1t is inspiring, interesting, edify-
ing and instructive. Here is to be
found every amusement device that
mind has conjcctured. There are land
parades, the trappings of the militia,
tho Kaleidoscope coloring that the
worlds races can depict. There are
Indians galore. There are depictures
of the old trail days. There are re-
plicas of the fort and buildings of the
Astor expedition.
In the harbor lay United States
cruisers and a torpedo flotilla. The
pyrotechnic displays on the water are
magnificent and excel anything ever
before seen on the Pacific coast.
There are exhibitions of the wireless.
The harbor is alive with craft. There
are searchlights everywhere. Sixty
thousand electric lights illuminate the
city's streets. Monster electric signs
emblazon their radiance from the
hills. There are floats costing thou
sands to build symbolizing the devel-
opment of the northwest from her
birth to the present moment.
The Astoria centennial has proven
to be much more than a sectional ex-
position. 1t has attracted the atten-
ton of the entire ecountry. The at
tendance has been exceptionally large
but large as it has been and will be,
Astoria is able TO properly house all
the more than welcome thousands.

London.-Half seriously and half
humorously a weekly society paper
publishes an appeal to the Hon. Mrs
Cecil Bingham, better known as

give to the world her secret of per-
petual youth and beauty.
The supplement points out that, al
though she, Mrs. Bingham, has had
an arduous season her years are those
OF maturity, she is positively looking
younger than ever. The writer points
out that her persistence in looking
younger than her stepdaughter really
stands In the way of the debutan-
te's matrimonial chances and con-
cludes by declaring that Mrs. Bing-
ham owes it to society at large that
she should make public the secret of
her eternal juvenility.
At all of which Mrs Bingham only
laughs and dimples like a girl and
insists that if her complexion is
"peach-like" it is simply the result of
soap and water.

Limits to Rights.
There are limits to right. In some
places it has been decided that no one
has right to keep a pig, COW or horse
where other people live. In others
there are no chickens, dogs, or cats
allowed. This is as it should be.
Why should the lives of people who
have to live in the city be endangered
and made miserable by nuisances to
indulge wicked, selfish and inconsid-
crate people who move into It? The
cities are said to be the problem of
the nation. Perhaps so. AS the coun-
try sends thousand of boys and girls
to the city every year, the city comes
near being the key to the city.
The effect of these moral issues on
property values and on business is
greater than one would imagine. What
think you property was worth in
Sodom? Rome was once the magnet
for the youth of all lands, and Rome
fell Have you heard of a building
boom in Rome in two thousand years?
1 wish you could see a recent letter
from a man in another state written
back about property in certain Flor
ida city where he had gone with the
object of investing in property. What
he saw there not only made him re-
turn without investing, but made him
sick at heart, and he said in a letter
back to a friend: 81 want no prop
erty in a place where one could not
afford to rear his children. I fear the
fate of Sodom for such a city, and
would be afraid to live in it,
Knowing these things, Baptists are
set to persuade men, and join forces
with all the armies of righteousness
for a cleaner nation, a better govern
ment. and in the long run a much
happier people.
