SECTION PAY RAISED

A rumor Is atioat that the pay OF the
section men on the North Western
road has been raised I x cents per
hour The section men are the lowest
paid men in the employ Of the rail-
roads and are generally the first 10
get a cut and last to secure an in
crease. The section men were. until a
short time ago, unorganized and they
claim that that fact had much to do
with the frequent changes in their pay
II is also stated that extra gangs of
Italians have been shipped to the iron
ranges during the past week TO work
upon road work as soon as the weather
conditions are right. The men are be-
ing put on at so early because OF the
anticipated activity in ore shipments
early In the year and the consequent
shortage OF men in this section.
