FLYING ACROSS THE OCEAN

The British dirigible R-34 has
made g successful flight across the
Atlantic, the second airship to per-
form this feat within the past few
months, the first one of American
build. People interested in aerial
travel now make forecasts that with
in the next two years passenger
lines via the heavenly route will be
in operation.
We live in a wonderful age. Sixty
years ago, after the proposition TO
lay telegraph cable from New
foundland to Ireland had been a
subject of derision among the know
ing ones Of that day, communication
was established between the two
continents and continued for about
two weeks. Some persons now liv-
ing will remember the excitement
that event produced in America mad
Europe. Queen Victoria sent cab
legram Of congratulation to Presi-
dent James Buchanan which was re-
sponded to by the American eXecu-
tive.
But more wonderful things were
in store for this world. Several ad-
ditional cables were subsequently
placed on the oceans bottom. and
now the civilized world is in touch.
Wireless telegraphy has followed
and many other useful discoveries
are in evidence.
An exchange today contained a
picture representing Uncle Sam
astride the Capitol shaking hands
with John Bull who is passing in a
monster dirigible. Were Queen Vic
toria and James Buchanan alive
they would have more to rejoice
over now than the short lived cable
messages Of the latter part of the
ffties.

LAS THE TWIG IS BENT THE

Recently two or three little boys,
not over ten years of age, were seen
IN King street attired in Wild West
suits, each bearing toy pistol in
his holster. They rushed to and fro
in imitation Of scenes they had wit
messed in moving pictures, where
held ups had been portrayed.
The Detroit Free Press has the
following to say Of such juvenile
preccsity:
"The small boy was propelling the
coaster with great velocity. His pas

 We notice the county agricultural agents of Monroe county are issuing a monthly paper for the purpose of keeping the farmers, business men and others interested, informed on matters in their line of duty. It con- tains instructions and information to the farmers in the county and fur nishes means of constant communi- cation between the agents and the man on the farm. That's splendid, but Nevada county, or that is, the big majority, would be satisfied with just the agents. The people of this county want these demonstrators, but the opposition and misrepresentation of a few people have made it impossible for this county to progress along this line. Eventually, we will come out of this sleep and awake to the fact that the world is busy moving and doing things all around us while we are wrestling the championship from Rip Van Wrinkle.

WHY BRIDGEPORT
LOSES INDUSTRY
I. w. w. Is Blamed for Loss of
Graphophone Company With
$8,000,0O0 Payroll.

The Bridgeport Standard Telegram
in an editorial puts the blame on the
|. w. w. for the decision of the Colum-
bia Craphophone Comany to move its
plant from that city. The article fol-
lows:
"A lot of people pretend to think that
the announcement of the Columbia
Graphophone company that it will move
away from Bridgeport is a bluff. But
as a matter of fact let it be said right
here and now, it is not a bluff. The
company contemplated this move long
time. There are variety of reasons
for it in the present instance. And the
Bo1she~ik behavior of a certain group
of its Bridgeport workers is the straw
that in this case has broken the cameps
back.
"The Columbia Graphophone COM
chain. To bring the various units more
closely together would naturally make
management easier. For that reason the
company considered pulling the Colum-
bia unit out of Bridgeport. But other
reasons-the fact that the company had
been established here and was success
fully operating here-tended to. pre-
vent.
Then came the chaos of the present
strike, with its marked I. w. w. pro-
gram, its mixed leadership and its COM
plete absence of responsibility. The
management, as it said in its farewell
statement yesterday, was fair. It offer
ed the 44-hour week and 1212 per cent.
increase in pay-bringing the pay higher
than the pay for similar work in the
competitive line. 1t met with commit
tees of the employees and with COM
mittees from outside the employees.
But no headway could be made and the
plant remained idle.
Nov comes the announcement that it
will not reopen in Bridgeport.
What does Bridgeport lose? What
do the workers at the Columbia lose?
Here IS an industry employing $500
persons and with plans for expansion
to triple the size. The expansion is 60
ing to be carried out but not in Bridge
port.
year in and year out, since its or
ganization, it has afforded steady work
for group of people. At times when
other industries have been stagnant, it
has been working at top speed. 1t has
been a standby.

to the payroll of Bridgeport-lO per

TRADES COUNCILS
MEETING BRIEF
Proposal to Have Another Mass
Meeting on Green Against
Prohibition.

Delegates from the Brewery Work
men reported at the meeting of the
New Haven Trades Council on Thurs
day night that many of the brewers
were out of jobs as the result OF pro-
hibition and that some firms were hav-
ing their imitation beer goods handled
by non-union Workmen. The attention
of other unions was called to these mat
tiers and it was desired that some assist
ance be given to the brewery workmen.
1t was also proposed that another
mass meeting to protest against war
time prohibition be held on the New
Haven Green. The first meeting at
tracted much attention and a very able
address was made by c. J. Danaher of
Meriden, counsel for the Connecticut
Federation of Labor.
Resolutions from various organiza-
tions favoring an increase in wages for
letter carriers and other postal en-
ployees were received. They were pre-
sented by Delegate Moakley. Delegate
Cominskey of the Pressmen's Union re-
ported about the new agreement of the
pressmen, details of which will be found
elsewhere in this paper.
President Ira M. Ornburn made a
quick trip from Bridgeport to preside
but deferred a statement in regard to
the Bridgeport labor situation until the
next meeting when it is supposed every
thing will be settled satisfactorily. Sec
retary Reilly was unable to be present
and several documents were held over
until the next session. Aside from the
usual reports of delegates there was
but little business and an early ADJOURN
ment was taken.

HARTFORD TAILORS.
Union Members Do Not Look for
Trouble With Bosses.

Hartford, Aug. 22-"We don't wish
to give the impression that we expect
to have trouble with our employers" D..
Freitas, secretary of the Journeymen
Tailors' Union, said after a meeting at
{. L. y. Hall. "The increases we have
asked for we believe are fair; however,
any impression that we will strike at
once, if we don't get our demands is in
correct. A committee from our organ
lzation will visit all the tailoring com
panies and talk things over with them.
We don't want to create any hard feel
ing and are merely asking what we
consider fair wage as tailors are now
only making from $18 to $24 a week on
piece work and are putting in nine
hours on week days and work in the
evening on Saturday"
