POSSIBILITY OF LABOR
TROUBLE AT RUTH MINE

Following the accidental death of
two men in the Ruth mine, the
miners refused to return to work and
rumors of a strike have been current
throughout the district. There are
points at issue between the miners
and the management. The demands
of the men have been outlined as
follows: Eight hours and no over
time with guaranteed minimum
wage of $3.50; all shooting to be
done at noon or at night and that
men be employed regularly to do all
shooting and that miners and muck
ers be not allowed to shoot; that
competent shift bosses be employed
and that motors be not run durine
the hours when men are going OF
and off shift.
An agreement can probably b,
reached on all of the above points o
difference with the exception of tn,
guaranteed minimum wage of $3.50
Under the sliding scale agreemen
entered into some months ago, tn,
wages were to be $3.50 as long as tn,
price OF copper remained above 2!

probable outcome of the negotiations,
but leaders of the two factions are
optimistic that a strike will bel
avoided.
A. B. Garretson, president OF the
Order of Railway Conductors and
spokesman for the employees repre-
sentatives, made 1t clear that under
no circumstances will the employees
agree to arbitration under the New
lands act The boards of arbitration
provided by that act, they maintain,
are too small The balance OF power
they contend, is too close and as a
result the employees have suffered.
Indications were that the president,
recognizing this situation, might pro-
pose pecial board of arbitration II
the negotiations reach the arbitrating
stage, composed of as many as IL
men, including representatives of all
the brotherhoods.
Reports that the president had mott
fled the managers that unless some
agreement could be reached with the
men he would invoke his power to
influence Congress to pass an eight
hour law we're circulated, but dis
counted by those in close touch with
the situation.
Il would fight any attempt to pass
such measure" was the terse re-
mark of Mr.. Garretson upon hearing
the report
There was discussion of the pos
siblity of the president being chief
arbitrator in the dispute. but his
position was understood to be that he
has not the time. There was pos
sibility that instead he might name
the SO called neutrals on the board.
Sufficient time has elapsed since
the strike first was suggested ant
enough delay has ensued, Mr.. Carrot
son is understood to have declared, t.
permit the railroads to submit any
sort of an unqualified proposal which
they might have in mind
Three hours after the employees
representatives had left the White
House the employers managers met
the president. Elisha Lee, assistant
general manager of the Pennsylvania
presented the railroads side of the
case. The president requested him
to explain in detail wherein the EN-.
ployers and employees disagreed

Wilson urged that for patriotic rea

for a week and had intended to have
a formal presentation when the flag
was completed, but the company was
ordered hastily to the front and these
six women got up very early that

did today. They gathered quantities
of roses and carried them with the
flag to the river front, which was
lined thtckly with people. As MIS-
WINS and the others came down the
hill, a path was made for them and
the captain leaned over the side OF
the boat to receive the flag and the
women showered the soldiers with
roses. Every cap was lifted as they
presented the flag in this hasty in

describe the camp as beautiful

miles out from Des Moines, near the
Hyperion Field and Motor club.
1t is situated midway between the
road and the interurhan and easily
accessible by either way. There was
being erected this week two buildings
of q more or less permanent nature,

AN Oil SHAMPOO
FOR FALLING HAIR

Each hair in your head is an indie
pendent oil plant. Every time you
wash these delicate oil plants with ordi-
nary soaps or shampooe, you cut the
natural oil and the fatty roots Of the
hair, injure the hair plant and cause
the hair to fall.
Whether your hair il dry and brittle
or contains surplus of oil, you should
use only An oil shampoo.
EVERY WEEK ANTI-SEPT1C OIL
SHAMPOO is more than . shampoo It
IS shampoo and tonic combined. It con-
tains q mixture of mineral and cocoa
nut oils which produce q rich creamy
iather. It dis.otves and removes the
dandruR (dry or oily), opens the
.logged haircells and leaves tho scalp
soft and the hair roots healthy.
it is the ideal shampoo for men,
women and children. To keep the hair
and scalp healthy, men and children
should have shampoo every week and
women every other week.
One SOC bottle of EVERY WEEK
ANTI-SEPTIC OIL SHAMPOO contains
"a teaspoonfuls, sufficient for several
months.

manded that Hue1ta salute the flag"
Captain Morey Is expected to prove
the man who will determine If we are
to have war. He was second In COM
mand at Carrizal. He Is reported to
have escaped, wounded. It is his re-
port General Pershing 10 awaiting. He
is expected to have the details OF
Boyd's parley.
According to administration ON
cials. a break will find this govern
ment prepared. There will be no
hasty dash to make a clean up Of the
situation. The war will be a war of
conquest, IL It is conducted by the
present administration. AS indicated
in congress the resolution authorizing
the president to declare war will
specifically indicate that under no
circumstances will the United States
seek to profit territorily or otherwise
by invasion OF Mexico.
The resolution probably will state
that the only object of invasion will
be restoration OF peace In Mexico
and the elimination Of the menace to
the south border OF the United States
resulting from the present state OF
banditry. 1t will state that upon the
restoration OF peace, the United
States will withdraw its forces and
will make clear that no development
of the conflict will alter the present
boundary line.
This enunciation OF purpose by the
Wilson administration, is certain TO
precipitate a fight in congress. A
number of the republican leaders who
have learned Of it are prepared to
block any resolution which in any

ment.
They characterize the Wilson plan
Of pacification and withdrawal as
visionary and assert that-even though
it may be inauguratei in that plan,
by democratic administration, it is
apt to be concluded otherwise by a
republican president
It is probable that the fight to pre-
vent the lacking on to the war reso-
luton if one is adopted, OF any modf
flying clauses which might later prove
embarrassing to Hughes, should he be
elected, will be- led by Senator Hard
ing OF Ohio, chairman OF the repubh-
can national convention and a man
who is rapidly looming up as one Of
the aggressive leaders OF the con-
sentative element in the senate.
1T is expected that number OF
southern democrats who do not share
the presindent's socalled idealistic
views on fn-American affairs, will
also oppose the administration plans
| II a war resolution becomes neces-
airy.
In the event OF an actual break with
Mexico, it is not expected that militia
organizations will see service south
of the border for several months. It
is figured at the war department that
the situation will call for heavy Dor
der guard and that while functiontng
in this fashion the militiamen will
become acclimated and be ready for
real campaigning by fall. In the mean
time the regulars and the fleet will
be conducting any offensive that the
war department plans make necess-
airy,
