LABOR TROUBLES ARE
SETTLED IN LOS ANGELES

LOS ANGELES, March 21.-The
metal trades strike against the con-
tract shops of Los Angeles, which
has been in progress for nearly two

An agreement has been reached
between the officials of the molders,
machinists, boilermakers, black
cmiths and patternmakers' unions
and the officials of the Founders and
Employers association.
All of the men who went out are
to return to work as fast as conditions
warrant. The outcome is a great
victory for the metal trades.

MUsCATINE BUTTON
FACTORY FEELS STRIKE

DAVENPORT, Ia, March 21.-
The Hawkeye Button Company ut
Muscatine is endeavoring to start a
plant in this city, and is advertising
for employees. -
This is one Of the non-union out
fits that has endeavored to destroy
the Button Workers union in Mus
catine. The fact that the company
is endeavoring to establish a plant
outside Of Muscatine is evidence that
the button workers strike is effective.
Previously numerous efforts have
been made to start button, cutting
plants outside of Muscatine, but all
attempts have hus far resulted in
failure. -. -. -. :. -,

RAILROAD MEN HOLD
IMPORTANT CONFERENCE

NEW YORK, March 21.-A con-
ference between the representatives
of the locomotive engineers and the
railroads opened here today to dis
cuss the demand of the engineers for
increased wages.
This is a movement that involves
over $4,000 engineers, and the rail-
roads maintain that existing condi-
tons will not justify an increase.
AS counter-argument the engin-
GERS assert that the cost Of living has
increased to such an extent that an
increase is Imperative.

the school books Not only have
lad no connection with these abomin-
able charges, but deeply deplore the
changes made. many for the worse,
which caused heavy exactions from
the pockets of he parents Of this
county.
The last Republican legislature of
1909, changed tn old system and
abolished the county school book
boards, substituting in its stead a
state board. The latter board, sitting
at Charleston. selects the books for
the whole state. This state board
