East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1915-11-08

WASHINGTON. Nov. .S-America
stood before the world today as un-
alterably opposed to Great Britain s
interference with neutral trade, and
is on record as holding the British
blockade illegal
With the United States note OF
protest published broadcast, it be-
came England's next move. Action,
not words, is expected to be Eng
land proper reply. A message ex-
pressed the anticipation of a COM
pliance with Americas vigorous in
sistence on the removal of trade re-
strictlons, may be hoped for and
realized. Because OF the notes
length-about $4,000 words-and it:
numerous techniealitles, it may be
impossible for Britain to reply fol
several weeks. Commendation Of the
tone and of the substance of the note
poured into the White House. Press
comment indicated there is national
approval of the note.
Officials were interested to know
how great Britain and Germany re-
ceived the note. They contended
that it demonstrates this nations
neutrality, as it deals with England
as vigorously as previous notes dealt
with Germany on the question Of the
freedom of the seas. A failure TO
protest the seizures Of cotton ship
ments and England's designation Of
cotton as contraband, is expected to
draw criticism from the south.

ernoon.
The street car men are going to
get, through the arbitration board,
practically everything they asked of
the company before they went on
strike.
In every car station in the service
today there were cheers for MacIay
How're and VIM. Hale Thompson,
members of the board who voted for
concessions to the men. The men
are eIated.
Here is just what the arbitration
board did for the men:
Men asked for maximum pay of SO
cents an hour. Will get IS cents an
hour this year and SO cents there
after.
Men asked 80 cents an hour mini
mum wage. Will get 20 cents this
year and II cents an hour thereafter.
Men asked reduction of wage grad
ing period from five years to one
year. Got reduction to four years.
Men asked for 9-hour Workday on
Sundays. Got it.
Men asked that night trainment get
So pay for 8 hours work. Got it
Men asked 10 minutes allowance
for turning in receipts at end of day.
Get 7 minutes.
Men asked.3 to 5 per cent increase
for shop employees. Get it.
Besides the above grants by the ar
bitration board, the company agreed
the day before arbitration proceed
ings started that it would increase
the lunch hour from 20 to 25 minutes
and grant the mems wishes with re-
gard to swing runs. The men get paid
for time off for lunch.

Early this afternoon the arbitra-
ton board was still sitting in its final
session. This is held to clean up
minor details of the award that will
be officially announced late this aft

saw the men were going to win, has
returned to the fold. He will present
a minority report.
When the car men got it in the
neck in the arbitration three years
ago they took their medicine without
complaint. The Surface Lines can't
do anything but cough up the $1,0OO,-
600 a year in additional salaries, for
it worked out this plan Of arbitra-
ton and chose Mayor Thompson as
the umpire.
No one feels that the men got more
than they deserve. No one has dared
to say that Mayor Thompson acted
unfairly in voting for the increases.
The wages of the older regular men
will be boosted 500 year. It just
means that these mems families. will
be able to dress a little better and eat
steak once in a while.
The mayor will leave at once for
the California expositiOns. When he
gets back he will have before him the
lob of umpiring the arbitration hear
ing between the elevated lines and
their men. Hope Of settling these diff
ferences without arbitration has fed.
The company and men are to ap-
point their own arbiters. States At
torney Hoyne will probably be asked
to represent the men.

Miss Hale States

phOid Fever Says Tanlac
Gave Her Great Relief.

Miss Aruetty Hale, who re-
sides at Ill East Lewis street,

latest to testify as to the benefit Ia
derived from Tanlac, the pre-
mier preparation, she made the
following statement a few days
ago:
II was all run down, had very
little appetite and the sight Of
food made me sick. I suffered
with pains in the back of my
head, and at times 4 light fever
would come oyer me, ! began ia
get SCARED about my condition,
thinking it was walking typhoid
fever that was ailiug me.
II started taking Tanlac after
a friend had called my attention
to it being highly recommended
by so many people here. l have
about finished taking the second
bottle of Tanlac, and can truth.
fully say I feel we'll and strong
again. / am not troubled with
pains in my head, my appetite is
much better, and my work seems
easier in every way. l believe
any person who suffers as I did
will not make any mistake If
they give the much talked of
medicine, Taulac, 4 trial"
Tanlac, the master medicine,
can be secured in this city at the
M. E. Reddy Drug Store.

in the store in his efforts to
please you. He makes sales and
will rise in life. But there is
another class of clerks. They
let you hunt them up when the

not at all bothered If you walk

As the Editor
Sees II.

If you have a boy WHO'S afraid
to soil his hands, lead him out
into the garden and start him to
digging. Stand over him and
see that he keeps on digging.
And when he gets through dig
ging, just hand him an axe and
show him the wood pile and let
him exercise his muscles there
fer 4 few days. Possibly the
barn needs a good cleaning out.
That will please him and add 4
little more to his muscular de-
velopment. 1t may soil his hands,
but q little soap and water will
do wonders when properly ap-
piled. He may not be ardently
in love with his jobs, but they
will serve to beat 4 little horse
sense into his head and in time
he may become a fairly good cit.
izen. The high positions in the
commercial world are not filed
by men who were afraid to soil
their hands in their youth. A
dirty face is to be ceusured, but
soiled hands are more often an
evidence of manly toll.
