STRIKEBREAKERS DEPORTED

Niagara Falls. Ontario,-Sincc the
latter part of June the carpenters on the
construction OF new roundhousc Tor
the M. {. X. at Montrose, near here by
the Waldbridge-Aldi company OF
Detroit, have been on strike.
After unsuccssiully trying to fill their
places locally the firm imported carpen-
tcrS and also. laborers from Detroit.
This action was brought to the atten-
tion of the emigration department at OF
tawa by the Carpenters union, and after
full inquiry the men were returned to
Detroit by instructions OF the depart
ment
1t is probable that action under the
alien labor act will be taken bv the Car
penters' union at Niagara Falls against
this firm.

fore the board To answer a report made
by John Kelly, a deputy labor commits
sioner and former president OF the San
Francisco Labor council that the con
tractors were paying their laborers $3.50
a day instead of S3 day. Eaton said it
was matter Of principle; that he paid
the non-union men $3.50 and the union
men S3.
To this. Reardon replied: The prin-
ciplc OF this board is that So a day is
little enough for any man, Your prin-
ciple is 80 cents more yourself and 50
cents less for the laborer."
Eaton promised to recompense those
in his employ who had been getting only
$3.50.

terror of the ages was seen to be the

It's transcendent value to the race is
nowhere better exemplified than in the
electrifcation of the Milwaukee Road"
for 440 miles from Harlowton, Monta-

ing mountain waterfalls, it is taken and
sent along the wire to the mighty cleo
tric locomotives that haul the all-steel
trains of the ''Olympian" and the Go
lumbar" and the long heavily loaded
freight trains over the mile-high ram
parts of the Great Continental Divide.
Whether to carry tonnage or to yield
the traveller the comforts of smooth,

winter and in summer, is wholly at
mans service.
