MECHANICS VOTE TO
 STAY AT THEIR POSTS
Continued From Page One)


 l every signal from the front, and its . composition was so largely foreign and :. so plainly dominated by the few hun dred imported l. w. w. strikers who have provided the backbone of the en- tire movement, that it provided abso- lute demonstration of the weakening which the I. w. w. leaders admit among themselves, but deny to those of whom they are making dupes. The leaders have had no hope of winning since Wednesday. Among themselves they assert that they have accom- plished all they were instructed to do, this being the stirring up of trouble and the decreasing of efficiency.
 Fifty More Deputies.
 The Protective association was given 50 deputy sheriffs from among its members by the sheriff yesterday, who thus raised his force of deputies to over 300. The council made provi- sion for 40 extra policemen whenever Marshal Allison should indicate their need. He has had reserve list of more than that many men ready ever since war exigencies came in prospect months ago. These steps insure that there is going to be no lack of protec- tion for all of the men who go to work the particular care of the Protective association and which will answer calls to any quarter. Of the men, there will be many more go to work today, and still more tomorrow, when the mines will operate in order to give Wednesday off.
 The abundance of deputies yester- day resulted in freedom of company property and trails from pickets. and of absence of intimidation methods on the part of pickets at the public cross ings, where they assemble.
 More Like Holiday.
 The day bore more the aspect of a holiday occasion than of anything else. Crowds filled the streets. They in cluded shoppers, sightseeing folks, business men, workingmen and pick cts. Where the latter were thickest were flanking crowds of citizens who applauded the workers as they came from shift or went to work, while the pickets cheered derisively. The man sticking with. the job thus got a dou- ble tribute to his sterling qualities of loyalty. These men carried them selves with an air of determination, too, that was worthy of applause.
 No conflicts were reported in the aft ernoon or evening. In the morning 9 Mexican was arrested on complaint o- pickets, who alleged that he had drawn a gun. The man admitted that he did so, thinking that he was to be assaulted. A deputy who drew his gun when Wobbly picked up a rock to throw at miner he had stopped, was held on complaint of the strikers. The deputy also asserted self-defense.
 Red Cross Attacked.
 Aside from these incidents. there was not a ripple during the day.
 period of false reports was indi- cated as probably opening during the day. A particularly malicious one. which became current in the after noon and which will find deep resent ment among all patriotic citizens, was that the Red Cross organization was issuing buckets to the mines for their employees, using contributed funds. No report could have been more false or despicable. It was so plainly false that no one considered it as anything else. Another current lie was that Sheriff Wheeler deemed the situation so threatening that he had sent to Fl Paso for federal troops. On the contrary, Sheriff Wheeler feels that the situation is well in hand and that the force which he has sworn in. and additional men who are quickly available for swearing in, should emer- gency arise, will be abundantly equal to any service that may be required in the district under the widest Of re mote possibilities.
