BARBER CUSTOMERS
DID NOT DARE KICK

Union journeymen BARRIERS of Ely
walked out last Wednesday at two
o'clock on a demand for shorter hours
and an increase on a percentage ba-
sis over the weekly guarantee. Bar
bers are paid a guarantee salary and
receive a percentage on the receipts
over the stipulated amount. The de-
mand for an increase was based or
the gross receipts to the proprietors
from the chair of each journeyman.
The men quietly left the shops and
permitted the proprietors TO work
overtime in an effort to harvest the
crops and hair and whiskers brought
in by customers. II is understood
that there was very little argument
by the customers relative TO the con-
troversy. as few men cared to express
an opinion while their necks were
stretched out and the keen steel was
playing over the Adams apple" The
steaming towel draped tightly about
the mouth was an effective means of
closing any argument.
Saturday morning the j~ourneymen
returned to their positions behind the
chairs. having gained their demands.
securing an increase in wages and
having their working hours adjusted
to start work at 5 am. and quit at
6 pm.
In several of the large cities Of
the East the BARRIERS strike has made
it necessary for the proprietors to
invite the customers to help them
selves to a haircut and a shave

'SYND|CAL|SM' LAW
INVOKED IN SOUTH

80
Following a raid on the Office of
THE Dugout," a magazine printed at
Los Angeles, Sydney R. Flower. well
known to old residents of Goldfeld.
has been arrested and charged with
criminal syndicalism. He is president
of the Allied World War Veterans and
editor of the Dugout. Flower IA
held under $4,000 bail. According to
the district attorney of Los Angeles
he had advocated joining the I.W.W.
and had carried on a systematic cam
paign to promote revolution and re-
bellion among the American soldiers
In Europe. The office of the Dug
out was raided last week by federal
officers.
Operating under the pen" name Of
Parmeter Kent, Flower was a con-
spicuous figure in Goldfeld durirg
the boom days of that camp. Almost
penniless he went there early in 1905
and was taken i'll. Always an inter-
esting person, he made friends readily
and during his illness was cared For
by Goldfeld people. When he recov-
cred he started The Goldfeld Cos
sip" a weekly publication, through
which he gave his views on the news
and mines of Goldfeld.
He was an entertaining writer and
his paper was a success from the
start and was generally circulated In
the camp and outside Of Goldfeld.
Through the paper. a few months
after it started, he opened a stock
brokerage campaign through a blind
pool" scheme in which he styled him
self as a shrewd investor and offered
to handle money for all clients. CIV
ing them a big share of the profits h.
would make handling stock. He was
to have full charge of the money and
il is understood hat he received con-
siderable.
Then through the "Goldfeld Gos-
sip" his friends in Goldfield received
a shock. 1t appears that Flower had
been operating a stock game in Chi
cago n few years before and was
stopped by the postal authorities.
Learning that the postal authorities
We're after him again he printed a full
confession of his previous operations
in an issue of his paper and scattered
it broadcast. He told how he had OPP
Grated in Chicago and after securing
considerable money from investors
decided that the particular business
he was in would not be a success. He
said that he decided that the stock
holders as well as himself would get
a better run for their money if he bet
it on the horse races and this be pro-
ceeded to do.
He intimated hat he knew that the
postal authorities were after him
again and he said he hoped they
would let him alone. as he expected to
make enough money through his
Goldfeld enterprise to repay the
stockholders in his former venture.
He also told why he had selected the
name of Parmeter Kent. as it was
eunhonious and very pretty.
He was subsequently indicted by
the federal grand jury and at the first
trial in the federal court at Carson
City defended himself and the jury
disagreed. At the next trial he was
acquitted and left the state. He was
in Jail in Carson City for some time
pending the trials.
During his stay in Goldfeld he also
secured a franchise to build a street
car line from Columbia DO Goldfeld
