SALARIES GO UP, NOT WAGES, IN
RAIL WORLD, SAY EMPLOYEES

The U. S. Chamber Of Commerce,
which has Harry Wheeler, Chicago
banker, for it's president and the
Chicago Assn of Commerce as a
main cog, has its methods challenged
by the Transportation BrOtherhoOds
Publicity bureau.
It's conclusions were arrived at
without hearing or asking for infor-
nation from any one representing
the employees, . says the bureau in
discussing rail strike statements is
sued by Wheeler and his committee.
"They formulated their report, from
hearing only one side of the propo-
sitiOR.
These tactics remind US Of the
methods of railroad attorneys in the
courts when an injured workman is
bringing suit-any maneuver to de-
lay the case and wear out the pa
thence and capital of the workman
is so much gained for the railroad"
That the general omceTs who sit
in leather chairs at mahogany tables |
at the general Offices. have had their |
own pay fixed up nice and dandy, !
while the men who run the trains are
forgotten is alleged with these fig
ures:
Taking 81 western railroads as a
fair example, the salaries paid gen |
eral officers in 1900 were S4,537, 4O4 !
and in 1913 $9,444,528, an increase
Of more than 100 per cent.
Revenue of the railroads in 1890 |
was S165 per freight train per mile,
and 1914 the earnings were 1881 per
freight train per mile, an increase of
100 per cent, which shows the
freight train crews are producing
double the revenue for the railroads,
the general officers are receiving
double the salaries and the train
crews are doing double the amount
Of work they had to do a decade ago.
with no propOrtionate increase in /
pay"

"czAREss OF LAKE" IMPLoREo'
FOR RIGHT TO SWIM

FOR RIGHT TO SWIM
Philip A. Grau put on a pair of
trousers over his bathing suit and
went for a swim in the lake.
Grau lives in Wilmette, so he
went to the new beach which had
been started by the Wilmette Beach
assn, supposedly for the benefit and
pleasure of the people of Wilmette,
But Grau was told he could not
dress for bathing at his home and
use the. beach unless he paid the
regulation price of so cents for the
privilege of a dip.
GFau thought there must be some
mistake, that probably it was the
trousers which were Objectionable, so
next day he put raincoat on over
his bathing suit, Again beach cop
chased him. 49,.
docs a man have to pay so cents
for swimming in a lake that belongs
to the pubHc?" Grau asked in a let
ter addressed to his. neighbor, Mrs.
G. L. Martin, head Of the Wilmette
Beach assn, which insists on a
charge of so cents for bathers, ito
keep the common people off the
beach," as one OF the wealthy men,
bers of the beach assn put it.
Grau calls Mrs. Martin the
czaress of the lakes"

POSTMASTER AND ASSAYER
 VISITING IN TOWN

Dan Linderberg, postmaster, accom- panied by Mir John Hovlund, assay CT, of Hyder, arrived in town last ev- ening and report things moving nicely in that vicinity.
 Mir Linderberg says that ore will be shipped from Fish Creek Mine this summer, and possibly from one or two more mines along there One man, he says shipped little better than ton few days ago, an assay of which proved very promising. The owners of the property are anxiously awaiting the return from the shelter, and should it prove satisfactory, ship ment will be started at once. Trans portation companies have made gen erous offers to several as an encourag- ment to try what they had. Both Messrs Linderberg and Hoylund are very optimistic over the outlook of their part of the country.
