HOW CAN NEWSIES GET ALONG
Chicago Examiner circulation slug
gers are busy. Twice this week driV-
ers for the Hearst morning sheet
have been fined for beating newsboys
who refused to "eat'' papers.
One, according to testimony, used
a gun to collect for the papers he
left. He was fined only one dollar
by Judge Williams in the Maxwell
street court Monday.
The other Examiner driver was
taken before jury. His fine was set
at $25 and costs, amounting in all to
$3.50. He had been arrested for
beating a newsie.
Making newsboys "eat" papers is
often a favorite stunt of sheet
which is losing circulation and sees a
chance to force out a few more pa
pers. The boy is given more of the
particular kind Of papers than he can
sell
He is told to get rid of them any
way he can. The driver appears on
the next day and asks for payment
for the papers he delivered The boy
tells him that he couldn't sell all of
them and refuses to pay.
The newsboy usually is beaten up
for refusing to take the papers and
because he wouldn't pay for what he
didn't want. The only way the boy
can avoid trouble is to pay for the
extra copies and then throw them
away or force them on his customers.
Monday Sam Paulick, an Exam
liner driver, was brought up before
Judge Williams. Isadore Bass, news
boy at 18th and. Halsted, told the
judge he had been forced to "eat"
more papers than he could sell
PauGck on the next day, he told the
judge, came to the stand and de-
manded payment On being refused |

suited. Paulick paid and walked out
smiling.
Harry Quinn, another Examiner
driver, took a jury trial and did not
fare SO well. Harry Sharp, newsboy
at 69th and Halsted, told the jury
that on Noy. Is Quinn appeared and
gave him sixty Examiners.
81 don't want sixty today" Sharp
told Quinn. 81 can't sell more than
thirty"
Eyes, but you better take the whole
bunch" answered Quinn, according
to testimony.
Sharp refused to take the papers,
but Quinn threw them on his news
stand and walked into drugstore on
the corner.
Sharp picked up half of the papers
and put them back into the Exam
liner wagon. Quinn, from the drug
store, saw this. He rushed out,
smashed the newsboy in the face sew
eral times, Sharp told the court, and
beat him up.
The boy, with blood on his face
and clothes, visited the district cir
culation boss for the Examiner and
told of the assault He says he was
advised to "go back and keep quiet"
But the boy caused the Examiner
drivers arrest. The case came up in
the Englewood court and the battling
driver took jury trial. When this
came up he didn't appear. He was
fined $25 and costs.
Clayton Pense, attorney for the
newsboys, in both cases, told the
judge Of the outrage.
''If this is allowed to continue, .
what chance have these newsboys
Of making living off their corners?
If every paper should make them
eat as the Examiner tried to, the
boys would be driven out of bust
ness.

Strike May be AUerted

The threatened strike Of train men on 225 railroads of the coun- try. which has been called to gc into effect next Monday morning at 2 o'clock, may be averted by the enactment of an 8-hour law by congress. Both the senate and house are rushing an 8-hour law to passage and the chances are good that it will be enacted by Saturday night. In such event the labor organizations will call off the strike and the entire country will begin again to breathe easier.
 Since the strike was called nearly week ago the Santa Fe railway has been busy in getting ready for any trouble that might occur. Stockades have been built at WinsIow and other ter minaIs. and a request has been made by officials of the company for the appointment of deputy sheriffs to protect company pro perty. This request was grant ed by Sheriff Newman of this county, and a number of de- puties will be appointed today.
 J. M.. Lee, agent for the Santa Fe in Holbrook, as also other agents of the company, received Thursday morning instructions to operate at least one train each way daily for the transportation of passengers, mail and express. Intending travellers are to be notified, however. that the com pany will not be responsiEe for any delays after the time set for the strike, 2 o'clock Labor day morning.
 The Santa Fe will receive pro- perty. except perishable goods, livestock and explosive, for ship ment after 2 o'clock Monday morning subject to indefinite de- lay. MT. Lee yesterday notified shippers on what condition per ishable goods would be received for shipment. After the time set for the strike perishable goods will not be accepted for transportation.
 MT. Lee also received the no tice to employees stating that em- pIoyes failing to respond to call for duty will be considered dIs- charged.
 While most of the railroads in the country are prepared to operate some of their trains. a strike of the trainmen if al- lowed to proceed would demora- Iize business of every kind in the country. and the probability that it will be called off before it is commenced iscause for rejoicing.

A MemorqbIe Dqu for Masons

Saturday, August 18th, was g day long to be remembered by the Masons residing in Holbrook and vicinity, as it was then that the cornerstone of the new temple being erected was laid with solemn and impressive ceremony by the Grand Lodge of Arizona Masons. Grand Master F. w. Perkins. of Flagstaff, con- ductlng the services, assisted by other grand lodge officers from other parts of the state, as well as members of the local lodge.
 The day was an ideal one, a large crowd of citizens were pre- sent and the local lodge and visit ors marched from their present hall to the site of the new temple about 8 o'clock in the afternoon. After the ritualistic ceremony. which consisted of depositing a Ieaden casket containing various papers and lowering and cemet- ing the cornerstone in place, a polished and forceful address was delivered by Past Grand Master R. N. Frederick of Pres colt, The lodge then returned to the hall. The cornerstone is a fine piece of work and demon strates what can be done with native sandstone Tn the way of cutting, the work thereon being excellent and shows the emblem of the order, the date of the lay ing of the same. as well as the date of the establishment of the lodge and the trustees in charge of the budding.
 In the evening the Grand Mas ter paid an official visit to the lodge, when the first degree was conferred. followed by banquet.
