LOW WATER IN RIVER.
Heavy Westerly Winds Interfere
With Boat Schedules.

Low water in the river caused ny
heavy westerly winds, interfered con-

them from making landings in the

arriving here yesterday afternoon ana
this morning state that many OF the
creeks which ordinarily have seven
or more feet of water, were almost
blown empty or had but three or Tour

that the steamers were unable to make

PURPOSES OF CLERKS

Legal Rights of Federal Employees
to Organize Also Asserted
in Circular.

The purposes, methods. membership

ployes' Union, No. 1907. American Fed
Grafton of Labor. together with the
legal rights of federal employees to or
saniZe, all set forth in circular
recently issued by the temporary Off
GERS of that association.
The circular is published, according
to these officers. for the purpose of
disseminating as broadly and widely
as possible the objects of and infor-
nation concerning the organization"
Cooperation and not coercion; not de-
mands, but requests supported by rea-
son. common sense and humanity, is
announced as the keynote of the moth
DDS of the new union.
II. N. McLarin, temporary president,
states that so far there has been no
objection made to their distribution in
the departments and, in some cases.
the use of governmental facilities for
their stribution has been permitted.
This is due. he says. to recognition
of the theory that the organization is
not merely to improve the condition of
the clerks themselves. but also to re-
suit in greater good to the government
itself. The charter to be obtained from
the American Federation of Labor. the
circular announces, provides for com
plete self government on the part of
the new union.
A committee of the union to be ap-
pointed at the big organization meet
ing scheduled for tomorrow night will
present to Congress arguments in
favor of d minimum wage law. Rep
resentative Nolan of California has in
troduccd n bill providing that no per-
son in the service of The government
shall receive less than 50 a day, $50 a
month or 81. $50 q year. and that those
drawing the last-named sum or more
