ton and Got Results.

OLYMPIA, WASH, April 17.-The
State Labor Commissioner. acting I'M
der orders of Governor Lister, has
forwarded his report to the state ex-
eccutive on the strike of unskilled
workers against" the Tacoma, Smelling
company, which started the first of
the year.
Wage reductions and increased
hours caused the strike. The condi-
ton were not up to the average of
other smelters for the same class of
work, the report says.
The commissioner gives the follow
ing sidelight on how the strike start
cd: There is no doubt, that the
strike was precipitated wholly from
ar intense feeling on the part of. each
individual workman who was affect
ed, that the change in wages, and
hours of work was not justified by
the management No attempt had
been made by anyone to organize a
strikej but it gathered momentum as
soon as it became apparent that a
few were ready to quit"
Later organizers of the American
Federation of Labor perfected a un-
len among the men. Commenting on
disorders around the mill, the COM
missioner makes this significant
statement: From the evidence Sc
cured there was no Indication that
any violence or shooting had been
INDUCED in by the strikers until after
Sheriff Jamieson's deputies were sta
toned at the plant" -
The deputies were armed with
rifles and revolvers and were secured
the second day after the strike was
called. When the report was written
there were 306 men on strike, and up
to that time the strikers had only
lost nine through desertion.
