DESPOTISM.-The most amazing
feature of the strike passes unno-
ticed: One man, or several men, have
the power to tell the mayor that cars
used by 100000 people MAY OR
MAY NOT RUN.
The car men themselves voted
eight years ago to continue this des-
potic authority, after the people had
voted for city ownership, getting for
their votes a slight raise in wages.
After getting full power over the car
lines the companies know that votes
are powerless, and refuse a reason
able increase. -
Under city ownership the votes of
the car men would be just as power
full all the time to maintain fair con-
ditions as they were in 1907 to put
despots into power. Now their only
weapon is to risk their positions by
strikes, and then a victory gives no
security.
The remedy is orthe car men and

HOW ABOUT lT?- The great
house of Marshall Field & Co., with
its vast facilities made no attempt to
furnish transportation for its under
paid women and enfeebled old men
during the recent car strike.
Other State street stores did every
thing possible for transporting their
employees. In fact, it is reported that
the management Of Fields were very
much peeved because some of the
employees came late in the morning.
Was it vecause the Field estate

Garden Island Land
tiles Questioned

Property owners of Garden Island
held meeting at their school house
last Wednesday evening to discuss
the titles to their lands, and being
unable at that time to determine
definitely if they really have titles
they adjourned until next Thursday
evening, when they will hold an
other meeting at the same place.
At the present time the land is
included in the reserve made last
year by President Wilson, when the
railroad surveys were ordered, and
thus new land cannot be acquired
there. However. it is believed that
if the property owners organize a
townsite and prove to the govern
ment their good faith in trying to
make homes and business sites there,
their interests will be protected
Most of the people owning prop
erty on Garden Island were under
the impression that the land was
part of homestead to which the
government had given title, while
others believed that it was protect
ed by soldiers script The records
at the local land office. however,
show that the land is still in the
hands OF the government.
