LABOR WAR ON
PACIFIC COAS,
INDUSTRIAL WORKERS OF TIL
WORLD MAKE TROUBLE IN
WESTERN CITIES.
ALL ORIENTALS ARE BARRED
Union Men in Pacific Coast Cities
Demand the Recognition Of
Their Organization.

San Francisco.-With the events OF
the last week, the struggle between
the employers Of the Pacific coast
and the Industrial Workers of the
World has narrowed down to two is
sues.
A manifesto issued by the San Die
go Free Speech League is making the
fight to spread the open shop propa-
ganda. The question of higher wages
and shorter hours has been eliminated
at least, temporarily, in the North
west-by the stand of the strikers on
the sole issue of recognition of the
industrial workers organization.
San Diego has been beset by the
free speech agitators since January l,
and the announcement was made that
an army numbering 10000 industrial
workers would mobilize at San Fran
cisco, Sacramento and Stockton and
march to the Southern city.
San Diego special deputies and cit
liens assert they will, meet the re-
Inducements of industrial workers,
now headed southwark, and will drive
them back.
The struggle in the Northwest cen
tiers around six thousand striking rail
road laborers in British Columbia, and
$4,000 sawmill workers in Southwest
ern Washington. The first strike of
the Industrial Workers of the World
in British Columbia was called late in
March, when the laborers on construc-
ton work on the Canadian Northern
railroad quit.
Premier Richard Mcbride refused 10
aid the employment of Orientals to
take the place of the strikers.
The Washington strike began March
Is with a strike of about 1900 saw
mill workers. RiotiHg began almost
and $50 men were arrest
ed. The strike spread to Raymond,
Aberdeen, Seattle and the Hump Tu-
lwips river district At Grays Harbor
the employers granted the demands
of the strikers for minimum wage
of 1925 a day. This brought the re-
ply that the workers would demand
the recognition Of their organization,
regardless of any other grants made
by the employers.

MADERO running MEXICO
So Charge the Special Commissioners
of Orozco.

So Charge the Special Commissioners
of Orozco.
New York-The three special com
missioners from General Orozco, lead
er of the Mexican revolutionists, who
arrived here to present to the Amer
lean people the reyolutionists' side
of the present trouble in their coun.
try, in a long statement, given out
by Manuel L. Lugan, head OF the com
mission, bitterly assaulted the admin
istration of President Madero and de-
clared that his tactics in the govern
ment of Mexico are slowly wrecking
the nation.
Madero is charged with violating
every oath he made to the men that
helped him to overthrow the reign Of
Diaz. He is charged with misuse of
government funds, with making it i'm
possible to walk the highways of Mex
leo in safety, and with not protecting
the interests of foreign business and
the people of his own country.
The present revolution is not a
new one" the statement says; lit is
merely a continuance of the revolu-
ton which began when the rule of
President Diaz became unbearable. 1t
is intended to carry out the reforms
that it was hoped would result in
the success of the revolution a year
ago, the failure of which is sad
disappointment TO patriotic Mexicans,
"Madero, by what was almost his
first official act, violated the very
thing We had won. By his use of the
army he not only inundated CON
gress into calling an election, at such
an early date as to prevent any OPP
position, but also. intimidated the peo
pie and crushed out all opposition to
himself.
"Madero has all but accomplished
the complete ruin of Mexico"

PHOSPHATE ROCK
FOUND IN FLORIDA
NEARLY THREE MILLION TONS
OF HARD AND PEBBLE ROCK
ON HAND LAST YEAR.
MINING ACTIVITY RENEWED
Notable Feature in Development Was
Construction of Dam Across
Withlacoochee River.

Reports of the production of phos-
phate rock in Florida in 1911, issued
recently by E. H. Sellards, shows that
during the year the total amount OF
hard rock and pebble rock mined was
2,494,572 tons During the same period
there were shipped out of the state
2,456,44O tons. The total amount on
hand January l, 1912, was 1921
tons. The report of Mr.. Sellards fol-
lows in part:
The production Of phosphate rock
in Forlda during 1911 was again in
excess of that of any preceding year.
The production for 1910 was approx
imately 2,029,797 long tons, while the
output for 1911 was 2,494,572 long
tons. an increase of nearly half mil
lion tons. The increase occurred in
both the hard rock and the pebble
fields, although the percentage of in
crease was greatest in the pebble
field
The amount of phosphate rock
consigned for use in the United States
showed further decided increase.
The total domestic shipments of phos-
phate rock during 1910 from Florida
was 1014,473 tons, while during 1911
the domestic shipments amounted to
1,209,779 tons, from which it appears
that slightly more than one-half OF
the phosphate produced in Florida is
consigned to points within the United
States.
The year 1911 witnessed renewed
activity in the mining of hard rock
phosphate in Florida, with the result
that the output was appreciably in
creased over that of the preceding
year. The total output of hard rock
phosphate in Florida for the year 1910
was 392,OSS long tons. The amount
mined during 1911 was 474,094 tons.
Although showing this increase, the
production in 1911 does not equal that
of 1909, which was 527.5S2 long tons,
nor that of the record year 1908,
which was 76S,O11 long tons.
"The total number Of plants oper-
ating in the hard rock section at the |
beginning of 1911 was forty-tiye.
number of these worked out deposits,
for other reasons closed down, while |
several new plants were built. The
number of plants operating at the |
close of the year was forty-three.
Fourteen companies operated in the |
hard rock section during 1911.
"A notable feature in the develop
ment of the hard rock industry was
the construction of a dam across the
Withlacoochee river, as a result of
which it has been possible to supply
electric power 70 a number of the
phosphate plants in Citrus and Mar
ion counties. With the aid of cleo
trio power and light some of the
mines have been able to work day
and night shifts. thereby materially
increasing the output. The practice
of removing overburden by hydraulics
has also been extended during the |
year in the hard rock section, and has |
further facilitated the production OF
rock.

FLORIDA NEWS NOTES.

A project that is being pushed in
Tampa, st. Petersburg and intermedi-
ate points, is the building of trolley
line to connect Tampa, ST. Petersburg
Tarpon Springs, Clearwater, Largo
and other points along the west coast
The plan is to use the tracks of tn"
Tampa Northern as far as possible,
This is a great development work,
and every citizen in that territory
should take a personal interest in it.
Under state contract, work will be-
gin in few weeks on three addition
al canals from the Miami region into
the Everglades, one at Snapper
creek, one at Snake creek and one
at Cyprus creek. Each will be about
seven miles in length. The plan is
for the state to cut these three canals
and then for the land companies to
continue them on through the prop
erty This will have the effect of
lowering still more the water in the
Miami and Lauderdale canals, espe-
cially during the high water season.
Thousands of acres will thus be drain
ed and ready for usefulness in twelve
months, the time given this company
in their contract with the state for
the completion of the work The con
tract was drawn up last August, but
preliminary surveying, obtaining the
right.of-way, etc, has taken some
time.
Gulfport, near ST. Petersburg, is to
have a $4,000 hotel of handsome de
sign and with all modern improve
ments. 1t is made necessary by the
rapidly increasing travel to that re.
