Trolley Strike Axerted.

leymen on the Worcester & Connecticut
Valley divisions has been averted- For
number of weeks a contest has been
imminent, the men demanding fiat
rate of 80 cents per hour. The repre-
sentatives of the men and those of the
company finally succeeded in evolving a
plan whereby an agreement has been
reached touching almost all matters in
controversy save the wage scale, and
according to the agreement the question
of wages will be referred to an arbitra-
ton board, the union trolley men reced-
ing from their demand of fiat rate and
agreeing to accept the award of an arbi-
tration in lieu thereof. The action of
trolley men is in accord with the estab-
lished policy of the Amalgamated Asso-

Court Decision Victory.

St. Paul. Minn.-Some months ago the
manacement of the Great Northern rail-
road. upon learning that the carmen in
its employ had been successful in torm-
ing strong local organizations at It's ui-
vision points. as the result OF the enorts
of organizers representing the brother-
hood of Railway Carmen, issued no.
tice to the effect that as a condition
precedent to retaining ther positions
the members of the new organizations
must renounce their affiliation with the
brotherhood of Railway Carmen This
act was in direct violation of the state
law. and the railroad company was pro-
ceeded against and the case has ran
the gamut of the courts The supreme
court of the state has just handed down
its decision in the case. which returns
a victory for the union. In part the
decision SAYS: Theoretically the en-
ployer and employe are on an equality,
so that one is free to employ and the
other to accept employment as he sees
At hut in practice IL is to the employe
very often matter OF compulsion and
not of free choice. AS rule his daily
wants of himself and family and nothing
Is left for the morrow. To sustain iife
he must needs obtain or retain employ
ment on whatever terms 1t may be Of
fered. Under such conditions his neces-
stiles may be easily made use or as a
means OF coercion. II an employer who
knows that his employe is In a position
where he must retain the employment
or starve. should then with threat OF
dismissal from service coerce him to
leave an organization wherein the en-
ploye found help and support. and wnicn
was In no way inimical to the interests
Of the employer, we would all unhesi-
tatingly condemn the conduct OF the em'
ployer as a moral wrong. We fail TO
see wherein coercion under similar cir.
cumstances may not also be legal

Impeachment Proceedino..

Washington-Thej judiciary committee
of the house of representative has
voted ANONYMOUSLY to report articles of
impeachment against Judge Robert W.
Archibald of the commerce court. The
great agitation which has been carried
on throughout the country with refer
ence to culpability of judges of the
courts finds concrete expression in the
action taken by the judiciary commit
tee. If the house adopts the report it is
then the duty of the senate, although at
its convenience, to proceed with a trial
of the case, the constitution provides
that "the senate shall have the sole
power to try all impeachments." The
judgment rendered, to become effective,
must be concurred in by two-thirds of
the members present, and the punish
men inflicted extend only to removal
from Office and disqualification to hold
and enjoy any office of honor, trust or
profit under the United States. This
does not, however, preclude the con-
victed party from being indicted. tried
and punished according to law.

FIRE IN AN OLD BARN.
Early Morning Binxe Endangered VaIu-
nbIe Surrounding, Property.


Shortly before three o'clock Thurs
day morning the second fire which has
threatened the buildings around the
corner of Church and Main streets
within two weeks broke out in an old
snack In the rear OF Stacys livery
stable belonging to ]. ]. Flynn. When
the fremen arrived in answer to an
alarm from box AZ the entire building
was in flames and II was only by heroic
eHofts that the fire was prevented
from spreading to the livery stable
situated three feet away and also a
frame structure The origin of the
fire is unknown hut there are sus-
riciOns that it was Of incendiary or
igin as the building was supposed to
be unoccupicd at the time and this is
the second time that fire has been
discovered there within n few weeks
When the flames burst out the entire
sky was at once lighted up. \ man

main effort was to save the adjoining
stable and while willing hands were
busy taking out the horses and car
riages. one stream was run through
the stable. while three others went
down the alley between that and
Pitchers hotel. Two more came from
the hydrant at the corner of King and
st Paul streets. ana in 20 minutes the
last flicker had died out.
A slate roof on the building helped
considerably but the walls were old

together formed an ideal place in

ELECTION FORECASTS.
Only Two of Six Aldermen Likely TO
He Neglected.

With the CITY election but little more
than two weeks Off, the political love
feasts have begun. Here and there about
the city little near rallies" are beginning
and discussion is rife in man. a .:ck
kitchen concerning aldermanic pOssibili-
ties. etc
The third ward situation Is one tina t
promises the most sensation. IT is claim
ed that the aldermanic candidate in this
ward has already been slated and that
Eugene Gosselin. whose term on the
board expires. Is to be succeeded by Ar
senc Boucher. A little get-together meet
ing was held up in the third ward few
nights ago. The third ward voters Sc
lect their candidates early and then go in
FOR strenuous campaign. At this
meeting, so the story goes, it
was ordained that Gosselin should
give place to Boucher and. If reports
he true, the latter Is reasonably sure
or good support. e. p. Dion also Of this
ward and president Of the board OF alder
men holds over another year.
The second ward as usual can be sized
up with its customary certainty. When
y. II. Duhamel was elected to MI out
the uneXpircd term of the late NJ. l.. San
born as alderman from this ward the
voters knew they had made a good choice
and there seems to be no doubt but what
Mr.. Duhamel will be returned to the
board for a full term of two years with
out opposition In fact no candidate will
be named in opposition to Mr.. Duhamel, it
is said
Albert $. Drew of the fifth ward will
be returned for another two years, ac-
cord!ng to all reports. but John W. O'Neil
whose term as alderman from the sixth
ward expires says he will not be can
didate again at the coming election. NJ.
Il. Sullivans term on the board expires
this year and birds are chirpng about the
fourth ward door yards that Mr.. Sullivan
VIII not sit at the board table next year.
In the first ward there Is some uncer-
tainty over the situation 1t Is under
stood that Oscar W Edwards will not
come up for reelection in this ward. The
candidate to succeed him has been picked,
ii Is said but the time is not ripe to an
nounce his name.
Two school commissioners will be elect
ed this year. In the second ward it is
said that a. e. King will be reelected
FOR another term without opposition.
Whether Frank J. Dwyer. the present
commissioner from the fourth ward, will
lie reelected cannot be decided with GER
tainty. Mr.. Dwyer does not know wheth-
or he will be a candidate.

STOVE FRONT BLOWN OUT.
Frozen water Pipes Caused Damage
at Home of Myer HlrAchberg.

Frozen water pipes were the cause OF
a bad explosion Sunday morning at
the home of Myer tlrschberg at % Drew
range was blown out and other damage
done. The accident happened about ten
O'Clock and that no one was injured II
due to the fact that the members OF the
family were in the front part of the
house at the time. The stove had been
without a fire during the preceding night
and by the time the fire was lighted
Sunday morning the water in the pipes
which ran through the stove to the hot
water boiler had frozen. Consequently
when the water heated it had no room
in which to expand and the explosion
followed
The grddles from the top went to the
ceiling of the room and other parts of
the stove were blown through door
which leads into the dining room. From
the appearance of the places where bits
struck 1t was evident that any one OF
them was blown with sufficient force to
seriously injure II not kin any person
who might have been in the way. The
Goals were scattered about the floor and
a still alarm was sent into station one
and trucks from there and station two
responded. but the services OF a hand
extinguisher We're sunicient to quench the
blaze. The accident Is one which can
easily happen and before lighting a fire
in stove with such heating apparatus
the water pipes should he tested to see
IL they are frozen.
