JAIL FOR PICKETNC

DETROIT, Mich, Oct. 19.-Pitket-
ing is still a crime here. constitutional
rights are being denied citizens of tho
United States and even judges visit
labor men confined in jail in an effort
to persuade them to give up their
rights in exchange for their liberty.
George Krogstad, Robert Schram,
William Mitchell, George Ward and
Walter Davis, members of the Pattern
Makers union arrested for picketing
and now out on bail pending: an ap-
peal, were visited by Judge Philip T.
Van Zile, who sentenced them to Jail.
He offered them liberty II they would
agree not to picket unfair houses.
They refused.

FORMER DULUTH
OFFICIAL URGES
-FOUR HOUR DAY
BY p. G. PHILLIPS.
Former Alderman of Duluth.

What should be the length of the
work day is a question that is being
brought prominently before the
minds of many people who have in
the past gwen the question little
thought.
It has at last become the issue in
labor circles, and has travelled long
way on it's journey towards its uni
versal goal. Those Of us who have
fought for 1t as principle were ridi-
culed and scoffed at because of our
persistence in it's establishment.
But why the eight-hour day? Why
not the seven, the six, the five or
the four? Who shall say what the
length of the work day shorld be?
Surely it would be Of interest to the
| workers to see it established, but to
the employers it would be a milestone
| around their necks.
The, struggle that is continually in
progress between the workers on the
| one hand and the employers on the
other, is nothing more or less than
the interest of one class struggling
against the interests of another class,
the one demanding more wages, the
other demanding more work, the one
attempting to- reduce the hours. the
other attempting to keep the old
standard, .~
! The employer in many cases is quite
a humane fellow, is a fellow of feel
ing, or in other words a good man.
and yet he is powerless as a. rule in
the establishment of shorter hours
because Of his social and financial
ties, that will not allow him to live
in peace and continue in business
There may be exceptions to this rule
but they are rare.
Why should not the worker be q
partner in the business; why should
he not have a say in it's management
Surely this would not appear to be un'
fair in view of the fact that he is
the greatest factor in the produc.
ton Of wealth.
One thing is sure. Labor will not
give up its fight for the reduction OF
hours and the increase in wages, until
society readjusts the relationship be-
tween the worker and the employer
and places both of them upon an
equal basis, in which neither has the
advantage.

SAILORS STRIKE
RUMORS ABROAD

BUFFALO, N. Y, Oct. 19.-Seven
thousand members of the Interna-
tional Seamen's union on the great
lakes will strike in sympathy if the
demands of the car ferry workers and
passenger boat men are not granted
officials of the union here said today.
The seamen recently received a small
increase of wages. Secretary George
Hanson of the Buffalo district said If
a sympathetic strike is declared the
demand for abolition of the welfare
or book plan of employment will be
renewed.

The strike started by 10000 negro
workers on the Panama canal is
spreading, 500 street car employees
having gone out, completely tying up
the road. The bakers threaten to
walk out.
The police closed the headquarters
of the strikers to prevent assem- blies.
Prisoners are cleaning the streets,
the regular cleaners having quit.
The strike has not interrupted the
dredging in the canal.
The men ask So a day and eight
hours. The trouble started with the
granting Of the eight-hour day to
canal trainmen, employees of the gov
ernment. Workers of private monop%
olies demanded the same privilege.

5000 has been hung up to be split first 5000, second $500, third $500 and fourth $100.
 This is the opportunity that the
 drivers and automobile fans of the
 Southwest have been wanting for
 years. The fact that Barney Old
 field, Earl Cooper and other profes- sional exhibition drivers have raced
 at the State Fair in the past and run away with all of the money has had tendency to discourage the drivers and car owners of Arizona. The State
 Fair Commission this year decided to confire these events to the Southwest
 and distribute this money among local
 drivers, from whence it will find it's
 way into the regular channels of busi- ness, and besides keeping the money which is annually spent on automobile racing at home, will no doubt provide more interesting sport than has ever been staged before. The local inter
 est which will attach to car from any given community in the state will in the estimation of the State Fair man. agement more than offset the drawing i power of drivers of the Barney Old field type.
 In addition to the above race the Fair Commission have made applica- tion to the A. A. A. for sanction for road race from Douglas to Phoenix for Monday, November 18th, the open ing day of the Fair. A purse of $1250 is offered for this event, divided, $500, $450 and $2O0.
 | All cars entering in the road race
 will be expected to enter for the track
 events and will no doubt take
 chance at both purses.
 ! The Road Race is already creating considerable interest in autom obiTe circles in Douglas, Phoenix and inter- vening towns It will be a splendid advertisement for the Borderland Highway, as well as furnishing some excitement for the residents along the route.
 A Five Mile Elimination Contest will be run immediately preceding the One
 Hundred Mile Track Race on Satur- day, and a s100 Silver Trophy is of fered for the car named for entry" by
 any city or town in Arizona making the best time. Competition for this cup is limited to cars entered in the name of some city in Arizona, and in addition there will be a cash prize of $50 for the driver of the car winning
 the cup.
 series of Novelty races by Ford
 cars will constitute an amusing part
 of the afternoons program and be of
 interest to the thousands of Ford own CTS in the state. These events are limited to stripped down Ford ma chimes owned in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas and driven by drivers from these states. A purse of $250 is of fered for these events, and there will undoubtedly be a deluge of entries.

ARIZONA STATE BUREAU OF
 MINES

The Arizona State Bureau of Mines has received many requests from the east from people desiring to purchase or lease tale and soap stone properties within the State of Arizona. Al though there are undoubtedly deposits of the same in the state, there are no records of any.
 To be commercial deposit of tale must be close to a railroad although tale in extra pure form, such as may be worked for crayons, pencils, etc. |, brings as high as s100 per ton. Soap stone is usually quarried, and while it does not bring high price, it is easily mined and handled.
 The Bureau of Mines should be pleased to learn of deposits of this character Further information may be obtained by writing Charles F. Willis, Director, Arizona State Bureau of Mines, Tucson, Arizona.
