A union stoeie factory. the first in

night resolutions Were adopted and for
warded to Governor Whitman of New
York urging him to veto the l2.hour
law for women and children in canning

reads: 1T seems unreasonable to us
that anyone could be so greedy for gain
in any industry as to favor II law re-
quiring long hours of toll from those
least able to endure it, viz: women and
children. To argue that the women and
children want such a law is lust as
unreasonable, and we hope and urge that
you place your veto upon this measurc.''

Breuery Workers

The biggest surprise that has struck
the local labor movement occurred dur
ing the past week when the Brewery
Workers went ON strike against the 10
cal breweries, says the Washington ID.
c. Trades Unionist
II would seem that wisdom was
thrown to the winds by the owners OF
the breweries when they allowed the
trouble to reach the climax that it has.
and when it il taken into consideration
that no new concessions of any Kind WAS
asked on the part of the employees: there
can be no question but that the sym-
pathy of the public will be extended to
the men on strike
most violent onsluIghts OF men in con.
gress, who would like to wipe IL our
entirely in the District, and the only
openly avowed friends that the business
had came from the ranks of organized
la Dor. and the strongest reason that they
had for taking such positive stand
on this question was because OF the en-
ployment OF union men in the industry;
but now, IL that tie is severed there
Will be sufficient cause for the workers
to Join the ranks of those who would
put the District in the dry column.
1t is hoped that the better Judgment
OF the brewers Of this city will assert
itself and that they will see the folly of
fighting organized labor and will re-
enter into an agreement with their en-.
ployes who have contributed so largely
to the success of their business

Commercial Club to Run the
First Train to Oil
Field.
ABOUT MARCH FIRST
Several Hundred Tulsans
Expect to Make the
Trip.

CEVERAL hundred Tulsans will in
- wade the greatest oil field in the
world about the 1st Of March on the
first train that will run on the new
railroad now being built from Jen-
nings south to Drumright through the
heart of the Drumright-Cushing oil
fields.
This was decided few days ago by
the directors OF the Commercial club.
when a committee was appointed to
plan details Of the trip. Arrange
ments already have been made with
the officials OF this new railroad to
allow the Tulsa boosters the privilege
of having the first through train run
on the new road, which will likely be
ready for operation about the lst OF
March.
This trip will be the first of a series
Of trade trips that are being planned
for this spring. More complete de-
tails will be announced as they are
made.
Made Up Here.
II is planned now to have the train
made up I'm Tulsa to accommodate
several hundred people. This train
will go over the Frisco tracks on the
A. V. & w. to Jennings, where It will
be switched onto the rails OF the OIL
Belt road and thence 10 miles south
to Drumright, the largest town in the
country without railroad at the pres
ent time.
The Commercial club is figuring on
taking a band and large supply OF
Tulsa literature, which will be dlstrib-
uted along the route. Other novel

considered. The entire cost OF the
round trip will be something less than

Chance to See Field.
II is hoped that hundreds OF Tulsans
Will go on the trip, which will be a
splendid opportunity to see the great
est oil pool I'm the world and the
unique oil towns OF Oilton and Drum
right.
The opening of this new railroad
means more TO the trade possibilities
of Tulsa than any other event I'm the
past few years. IL will put Tulsa I'm
direct connection with an estimated
population OF $4,000 people, whose
natural trade center at the present
time is not Tulsa.
Tulsa merchants and business men
are planning an aggressive campaign
10 land this territory for Tulsa, and II
the merchants awake TO the oppor-
tunity the plum Is theirs.
At present Is is much easier for the
| 5000 people in Drumright TO go 20
Oklahoma city than TO Tulsa, but
with the completion Of this new rail-
road Tulsa will be within two hours
ride OF Drumright, In the south end

up the secretary OF the Commercial
club at once. as the fret come will be
