FLOOD OF
COLONISTS
is COMING

Two thousand three hundred and
forty four cars of immigrant goods,
representing the personal effects OF
11,720 colonists, we're handled through
the Twin City transfer during March
by the Great Northern, Northern Pa
cific, Milwaukee and st. Paul and the
500 Line.
These people were ticketed for the
Pacific northwest. The first four
days of April showed q greater aver
age per day in the people still NOV
ing than any day during March. The
reduced passenger and freight rates
under which the colonists moved con-
tinued until April 10, and officials of
the railroads expect almost as many
people to pass through st. Paul and
Minneapolis during April as during
the month of March.
The moveables are coming from all
sections of the United States. 1t is a
significant thing that the trains of the
Great Northern and the Northern Pa
cific railroads which start from st.
Paul show the greatest increase in
the nm Der of colOnists carried. The
trains from Chicago do not show

OROzCO
DECIDES
TO Be GOOD

Chihuahua, Mexico, April 17.-Gen-
eral Pascual orozco performed yes
terday a complete right-about-face in
deciding to recognize United States
Consul Letcher.
The Consul spent an hour and a
half with the rebel leader and pre-
sented the State Departments pro-
nunciamento that American lives and
property must be safeguarded and
that Mr.. Letcher must be allowed to
exercise his Consular functions in
dealing with the rebels.
Orozco said that his previous atti-
tude toward the Consul was due to
misinformation brought to him by un-
derlings, and he greatly regretted
that Consular mail had been inter-
fered with. He agreed to the follow
ing five propositions put to him by
Mr. Letcher:
l. the Consul must not be further
embarrassed by personal and official
espionage.
2. kilograms to officials, or on Of
ficial business, whether in cipher or
otherwise, must not be subjected to
unnecessary delay.
3. The Consul has the right to per-
sonal conference with the rebel com
mander at amp hour.
4. Mail must not be tampered with
or delayed.
8. Americans receive a guarantee of
the right of immediate appeal to their
Consul, no matter what the charge
against them, and the Consul may
visit them in prison.

CONTRACTOR
ORDERED TO
BEGIN WORK

Conditions at the new Carnegie
library have not changed materially
for the past six weeks. On March @,
while the workmen were putting some
of the steel trusses in position, their
support gave way and collapse re-
suited in which the scaffolding and
the trusses fell a distance of about
10 feet The fall sprung the trusses
to such an extent as to make them
valueless and new ones will be re-
quired before the work can be COM
pleted The collapse of the scaffold-
ing brought out a dispute as to the
trusses being strong enough to sup
port the roof and ceiling. The con-
tractors stopped the work and none
has been done on that part of the
building since. The contractor, ]. s..
Winters, contended that the trusses
we're not of sufficient strength to hold
the weight to which they would be
subjected and the library board and
architect Geo. NJ. Post, holding to the
opinion that they were Of sufficient
strength. This condition of affairs
has existed ever since the accident
and the contractor has been notified
twice to resume work. The last mo-
tice was sent out yesterday and in
all probability was delivered to the
contractor today. This notice gave
the contractor 4S hours in which to
resume work.
As basis for the contention on
the part of the library board that
the trusses were Of sufficient
strength, the opinions Of seven prac-
tical engineers have been obtained
and all express the opinion that the
trusses are amply strong for the
weight they will be required to carry.
Among those submitting reports on
matter is the engineer of the Port of
Portland and the engineer in charge
Of the bridges on the extension Of the
Oregon Electric between here and
Albany.

COMPANY HAS
kept ITSELF
WITHIN The LAW

Confronted with employment con-
tracts showing that men were i'm
ported from Chicago to Portland by
the Hartman railroad lines to break
the strike In the machine shops there,
Labor Commissioner Hoff finds him
self unable to prosecute the COM
panies as the law only makes it an Of
fense when the company fails to
warn the men imported that there Is
strike on.
The labor commissioner made an
investigation of the subject in COM
pliance with reports and complaints
made to him. These complaints were
to the effect that the railroad COM
panies were importing men without
advising them that there was a
strike on. When he conversed with
some of those imported he found that
these complaints were corroborated
but an examination Of their contracts
showed that they had agreed to take
the places of men in employment of
the company who were now on a
strike, The only explanation for the
affairs is that the men in signing the
contracts did so hurriedly and failed
to notice the clause in the contract.

ped into a marriage with "Sir" Harry
Westwood Cooper, the paroled convict,
who fled with her to London when the

WANT STATE
TO FURNISH
EMPLOYMENT
UNITED PRESS LEASED w1nn.l


Sacramento, Cal, April 17.--With
view to thinning the ranks of the un-
employed in California, the socialist
party here is today preparing to send
throughout the state as an initiative
measure the fright of employment"
BILL which provides for the establishs
ment by the state legislature of labor
agencies throughout the state and the
inauguration Of state industries" so
that there will be work for all citizens
who are able and willing to work to
earn living.
One hundred locals Of the Socialist
party and all central labor bodies in
California viii be asked TO secure sig
natures to the petition to have the bill
placed on the ballot next November.
The plan of the bill is sumed up in
the following excerpt from It's taxi:
"It shall be the duty Of the state,
through the agencies employed in that
behalf, to give employment direct to
its citizens, without the Intervention
OF contractors and at a reasonable liv-
ing wage; all profits which may ac-

such an increase. This indicates that
people from the middle west nfe the
ones who are moving and not the
down casters"
The movement Of colonists is said
by railroad officials to be greater
than ever this year due to the north
western states obtaining publicity
throughout the country and partic-
ularly to the efforts being made by
those states to show the farmers of
the middle west just exactly what the
American Northwest can produce.
At the office of the Northwest De-
yelopment League 1t is said that there
are more commercial clubs and busi-
mess organizations doing active and
intelligent work to secure settlers
than ever before. 1t is said that
more than 5000 cars Of immigrant
goods will go into the American
Northwest during 1912.
