cussed-Gov. Cox of Ohio Sends
Thanks for Flood Aid.

the members of the party to have
badges, some programs, etc, and there
IS trip by boat from Seattle to Ia
coma not called for by the $35 fare.

how much will be needed from each
junketter and then to charge each
man making the trip such u sum as
will cover all expenses.

floral society just organized was made
last night by DR.. l. L. Temple He

| club for donations to the flood suf-
| ferers was read. In his message the
! Ohio governor declared the people

MORE WAGES DEMANDED
Called Out-25 Cents a Day More
Wanted and One Day "a Week for
Holiday-TrOuble Had Been Brew
ing for Several Weeks.

San Francisco, May 1.-THE light
and power council of California an
affilation of unions employed in vari-
Gus branches of gas and electrical
work, called a strike against the Pa
cific Gas and Electric company to-
day. Various estimates of the num-
Der affected run from one to three
thousand About 500 are involved in
San Francisco. The strike will be
statewide. The strike was called be-
cause of failure to reach an agree
ment for a wage increase and one day
a week of rest. The increase asked
amounts to practically 25 cents day
for every man employed.
Trouble has been brewing several
weeks. The council was organized
several weeks ago and the first step
was to secure recognition. The Pa
cific Gas and Electric company was
the first to refuse to treat with the
council but when a strike threatened
the company gave in. The strike af-
fects every plant and company in the
state.

ing the white slave act began at this
afternoon. with Assistant District At
torney Parkin making the opening

per stories that efforts had been made

penter announced he intended to hold
to strict accountability all newspapers
covering the trial and that he would
not tolerate any misleading reports.

RANCH HAND STRUCK
WITH AK AT UNION

Union. May 7.-Murderous assault
was perpetrated on Lee Thompson,
nephew of j. A. Farley of this city,
Sunday night when a stranger enter
ed the sleeping room of young
Thompson about midnight and COM
menced chopping the bed in which
Thompson lay. Thompson, about
three weeks ago left klamath Falls
and came here to work on the VIII
Hutchinson place-and it was in that
ranch farm house that the assault
took place. He caught passing
glimpse of his assailant and after re-
ceiving two severe gashes from the
AK. slipped from the bed and made
his escape while the stranger hacked
ferociously at the bed, not knowing
his victim was gone. A deep wound
on the arm, one on the shoulder and
other slight bruises were sustained by
Thompson before he made his escape.

SUFFRAGE DEFEATED
BY VOTE OF IRISH

London, May THE fate of the
women's suffrage bill was sealed last
night by the votes Of more than so
Irish nationalists, who voted against
it, The bill, whereby it was sought to
enfranchise 100000 women, was re-
jected by a majority Of Al. The vote
stood 266 to 219.
Whether there is any chance that
the present parliament will pass bill
of more limited character may be
doubted. Possibly the nationalists
fear that if they allow womens
franchise bill to pass the second read
ing it will lend to parliamentary
struggle which would not unlikely end
in dissolution of parliament before
the home rule bill becomes law.
Furthermore, the debate yesterday
proved that the militant policy of the
suffragettes has done the cause great
harm as far as parliament is con'
cerned. The Cancellation bill of last
session was rejected by only a small
majority compared with the Dickinson
bill. which was under discussion and
previous bills, giving some measure
of acknowledgment to women have
passed the second reading although
they never survived subsequent
stages.
Recent police court disclosures OF
acts of incendiarism planned by the
militants far surprising in magnitude
anything heretofore attempted, and
the hurning of st GATHERINGS church
Hatcham, undoubtedly influenced
many members to vote against
the bill
