What Oiled Streets

Editor Appeal-While the question
of oiled or paved streets is being dis
cussed | would like to ask the women
Of Carson City if they ever lived in
community where the streets were
oiled and how they liked it?
Did you ladies ever start out on a
calling or shopping expedition,
dressed imma culately, and return in
couple of hours with clothes smear
ed with a stain that could not be re-
moved? Did you ever have little
Mary stumble and fall while crossing
THE street: Did you ever get the
stains out of her dress and stockings?
Did You ever economize for months
to save money for d new carpet and
then have it tracked full of oil be-
fore it had been down few weeks?
If you have had these experiences
do you want to try them again?

that a tree eXertS in accomplishing
this feat is tremendous, but relatively
1t is not equal to that exerted by the

One of the most remarkable eXhibi>

sunflower forcing its way up through

plant through. The force exerted must
have been many pounds. l think it
doubtful If the strongest man could
have pushed his fist through such

GREAT S TRlKE IN SYMPATHY
WITH CARMEN is PLANNED
BY LABOR LEADERS.
Fourth Day of Street Railway Trouble
Finds Every Surface Line in
Greater City in Crippled Con-
ditioh; Jitneys Popular.

New York--A strike OF stage en-
ployees, longshoremen, brewery work
ers, machinists, bartenders, moulders
and printers, in sympathy with the
unionized carmen who quit their
places last week, was decided
upon at meeting of the heads of the
unions Sunday, according to an an.
nouncement by Hugh Frayne, state
organizer OF the American Federation
of Labor.
A resolution was adopted calling on
all unionized wage-earners in Greater
New York, Yonkers, Mount Vernon,
White Plains and New Rochelle to
sanction strike lin support of the
contention of the street railway men
of their right to organize" The reso-
luton recommended that the workers
in the various trades 'lay down their
tools until the companies are forced
to recognize the Garments union"
Before sympathetic strike can
be declared, however, it was explained
by the union leaders, it will be nee
essary for them to call mass meet
ings of their respective unions and
put the proposition to vote of the
membership. The delegates at the
meeting Sunday night, it was said, as.
sured William B. Fitzgerald, organ
izer of the carmen's union, that their
members were willing to fight to a
finish, morally, physically and finan-
cially in the interest of trade union
ism"
According to State Organizer Frayne,
approximately 100000 men and wo.
men are enrolled in the unions that
were represented at the meeting Sun.
