STRIKE IN SEATTLE
DEMORALZED CITY
NEARLY $1,000 MEN ON STRIKE
TIED UP ALL KINDS OF
BUSINESS.
MAYOR HANSON'S STATEMENT
Says Everything Will Be Running as
" Usual This Week-Some Unions
Sent Men Back to Work-Sym-
pathetic Strike May Fail.

Seattle, Wash.-Conservative labor
leaders asserted Monday that the gen.
eral strike conference committee Of
union delegates reassembles they will
renew the fight to have the sympar
thetic strike called off and a definite
time fixed for its expiration.
Indications that the strike would be
broken before long by the gradual
drifting away of individual unions in,
s., creased Sunday. Street car men vot-
ed to return to work and the service
was practically normal Sunday.
Formal statements issued by Mayor
Ole Hanson and citizens committee
representing 81 civic, patriotic and
business organizations asserted that
the backbone of Seattle's general
strike of $4,000 workers, now in it's
fourth day, had been effectually bro
ken. Almost simultaneously it was
announced that the BARRIERS had voted
to return to work Monday morning,
and that several other labor unions
were meeting to consider similar &C
ton.
Statement by Mayor Hanson.
"All city and public utilities are op-
Grating 100 per cent" the mayors
statement said. Cali street cars are
running. Gas, light, water, power,
garbage, collections, hospitals, ETC., are
functioning. All schools and theaters
'azwill open Monday. Seattle has re-
sponded nobly in this emergency.
"The sympathy strike was lost the
day it was declared; it was foolish,
indefensible and un-American. This
means a split between decent organ
lied labor and the l. w. w. element"
Seattle-The efforts of the general
strike committee to have all union men
refrain from working until Seattle's
general sympathy strike, the first of
its kind in America, officially ended at
IL o'clock noon Tuesday, failed Mon
day night when the executive commit
tee Of the street car mems union voted
for the car men to remain at their
posts and not obey the request.
Many other unionists other than
street car men who went on strike to
the number of $1,000 five days ago in
sympathy with the strike of 25,00C
metal workers, also had returned tC
their tasks Monday, definitely break
ing the tsrike. 1t was the expressed
hope of the general strike committee
to show solid front once more be
fore the strike ended and have all the
workers return as a body.

State Cabinet.
Boise.-Idaho has the distinction of
of the few states in the Union to aban-
don an antiquated form of government,
being the first western state, and one
substituting in it's place what is virtu-
ally commission form. The legisla-
ture had duly authorized radical de-
parture from the old system and re-
placed it with cabinet government,
the center of which is the governor,
on the shoulders of whom rests the re-
sponsibility of making it a success.
Governor Davis advocated the change.
He is not Sinking the responsibility.
1t is his belief that at least the way
has been paved to place Idaho on a
substantial business basis.
To make clear the change that will
be brought about in the state govern
ment on March 81 when the new COM
mission or cabinet form goes into eff
feet, the present and pending systems
are shown as follows:
Present.
Executive department, elective: Gov
ernor, lieutenant governor, secretary
of state, auditor, treasurer, attorney
general, superintendent of public in
struction, inspector of mines.
Boards, appointive: Board of par
dons, prison commissioners, land COM
missioners, trustees soldiers home.
