SEWARD, Ala, Feb. 9-(via Val dez, Alaska. Feb. IDA general strike of all laborers employed by the government on the construction of the new Alaska railroad was called today by the federal labor union which was organized at a mass meet ing of laborers at Anchorage last night. Six hundred men already hay. signed the union roll, according to J. A. Ross, who was elected secretary of the organization.
 Track laying on the government s railroad from Anchorage to the Ma tanuska coal fields was stopped yes terday by a strike of the steel gang working at Peters Creek. Sixty men. mostly Americans, quit work, de manding increased pay.
 The striking track layers demand fifty cents an hour. They have been receiving 2 12 cents an hour.
 Lieutenant Frederick Mears. United States Army, of the Alaska engineer ing commission today sent three dep uty United States marshals to the scene Of the strike to preserve order. The boarding car and the track lay ing outfit was returned to Anchorage.
 Lieutenant Mears said that he an- ticipated no trouble other than the delay in construction work while se- curing men to replace the strikers. Efforts to obtain men today met with little success and the government probably will send to Seattle for woTkmen.
 A mass meeting of laboring men held here last night voted unani- mously against any present taking jobs as strike breakers. A commit tee was appointed by the meeting to aSk teamsters and other men em- ploycd on the government railroad work tO join the strike The cOnSer-

Depot District Business Men Start
. = Movement For Pedestrians.
Business men Of the South Third
avenue business district have started
a movement in which they hope to in
terest the city for the building OF side
walks at both ends Of the South Third
avenue viaduct where sidewalks were
not provided. The plan is. to erect
hanging walks from the retaining
walls of the viaduct from the surface
of the street to the sidewalks already
provided on the structure: A rough
estimate has been made that walks on
both sides of the viaduct approaches
would cost about $4,000.
AS planned the walks would be hung
on the outside wall Of the viaduct ap-
proaches, following the grade OF the
,viaduct to the sidewalks already in
place, which are reached by stairs
from the corner Of Third avenue and
Market street. The walks are proposed
to be three feet in width. +
The reasons advanced for their me-
cessity is that women, and especially
women with baby carriages, must
either go up and down the stairs to
the viaduct walks, as now erected, or
must take to the roadway Of the VIA
duct down to the street. It Is pointed
out that it would be dangerous for
pedestrians, and especially women en-
cumb with baby carriages, to use
the pavement for sidewalk. Women
will be compelled to do this at both
approaches of the v1aduct unless side
walks are hung outside the viaduct
walls. ~ - X ,ai5,, - "a rs. 49,,

Must Haps T,Oo Sets
Of Election Officia1s

1t will be necessary for this county
and all other counties Of the state to
furnish two entire and separate sets
of election officers for each polling
place OF the county for the elections
June 5. The board Of supervisors has
already chosen one set OF such Off
GERS. Now 1t has the task of appoint
ing another set.
The reason is that one set is de-
manded to conduct the primary cleo
ton and the other is wanted to have
charge of the election on the equal
suffrage amendment. Governor Clarke
has ruled that the election on the
women's suffrage proposed amend
ment Is a special election, and that 1t
must be held as such and not In con-
nection with the regular party prlm-
airy. Being separate elections each re-
quires different set of election Off
GERS. It has been held that the ques-
ton Of suffrage can not be voted on
as a part of the party primary, but is
ia separate issue.
The elections can be held at the
same polling place. but there will have
to be two boards of election officers
and each voter will have to go thru
the process of voting and having his
vote registered twice. 2Efa

proposed, that is to be voted on at the
