KLONDIKE' 25th ANNIVERSARY

July the 17th will be the 25th anniversary of the arrival at Seattle of the steamship Port land with its ''ton of gold from the Klon- dke.'' It gave to the world news of that wonderful gold strike which put Seattle on the map and resulted in the unparalleled rush to the North which brought about other dis coveries in Yukon and in Alaska. To date no arrangements have been made, but surely there must be enough of the old Seattle Spirit left to enthusiastically get up some form of a celebration if nothing more than luncheon or banquet at the Arctic Club with as many of the old sourdoughs present as pos sible. Down in California they are having a wonderful celebration, the 74th year since the gold discovery and over in Salt Lake they are planning a great pageant on the 75th ami versary of the coming of the pioneers in that valley, so it can be seen that other places fully appreciate the importance of celebrat- ing such an event It is not. expected that another Klondike will come, but the discovery of twenty-five years ago which first drew attention to the two great territories of the North, enriched the world by more than half a billion in gold and very materially assisted in building up of the metropolis on Puget Sound, should have its silver wedding cele- bration, and where could more suitable place be found than the city which first gave the news of the find to the world The Port land, the Jeanie, the Bertha and the Dora are gone, but why not rig up some old hull and load it with sourdoughs and have it enter Seattle on the exact day and hour that the

HONEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1922

Since the truth is best, we had rather ln- quire than argue. There is nothing gained in arguing to prove point after the manner of district attorneys. Argue to ascertain the truth. When we present our views 1t should be to draw the other fellows fire in opposition and from the outcome to reach the conclusion of common sense We gain more when we lose an argument than when we win one because when we lose we learn something while when we win we only add to our vanity which is always more than sufficient for our own good. Entering into an argument with our wits is like going to the grain field with a scvthe-a waste of time if we don't gather the grain we seek and need.

Overtime to Start
Only After 10 Hours
(By Federated Press)

Chicago-Continuing its onslaught
on the eight-hour day in the railroad
industry the United States Labor
Board has ordered that beginning
March ! firemen and oilers will be
paid time and half only after they
have worked ten hours. The ninth
and tenth hours will be paid at the
same rate as the first eight hours.
Train dispatchers will be paid time
and half for the tenth and succeed
ing hours but must work the ninth
hour at the same rate as the first
eight hours.
The board proclaims that eight
hours shall constitute working day
| for both groups of employees, but un-
ion officials declare that unless the
roads must pay extra for working
the men overtime the "principle" of
| the eight hour day is disregarded.
Similar rules for other groups Of rail-
road workers were issued several
weeks ago.
Glasses of workers affected by the
revision are stationery firemen, boiler
room water tenders, engine room OIL
ers, stationary and hosting engineers,
fue blowers and borers, fire knockers
and cinder pitmen, fire builders and
coal passers. Under the national
agreement overtime after the eighth
hour was paid for at the rate of time
and a half.
The "split trick" for the employees
of this group is restored by the new
rules. That is to say, where work is
intermittent eight hours work within
spread Of twelve hours will consti-
tute days work after March l. En-
ployes will be paid overtime for all
time in excess of eight hours within
| twelve hours Of the time of reporting
for work, and overtime for all time
without the twelve hour period COM
puted from the time of starting for
work.
Sunday and holiday work is to be
paid for at regular rates under the
new rules where days work is per-
formed. For Sunday or holiday work
of less than a days duration per-
formed on call the employees are to be
paid minimum Of three hours pay
for two hours work and at the regu-
lar rate after the second hour.
About 10000 men are affected by
this order; 5419 train dispatchers are
affected by the order modifying their
overtime payment.
March 6 the board will begin hear
ings on the applications for wage re-
ductions and the application for wage
increases filed for all classes of rail
employees, except those affecting train,
engine and yard service men.

any office. A mojority of the voters
are anxious to get a good successful
business man to head the state gov
ernment, and this will certainly be one
of the qualifications which will be
demanded when the nominees are fin

DEMAND FOR WAGE INCREASE
Anthracite Coal Miners, in Convention,
C en- Hecord-Th. eaten Com
p etc Suap- nsion Of Work.

Demands adopted by the tri-district
wage convention of the anthracite
miners, which met at Shamokin, Pa,
will be presented for ratification to
the international convention OF the
United Mine Workers, at Indianapolis
this month.
The principal demands provide 70
per cent increase In the contract wage
scale and an advance Of 81 day for
all men employed by the day. Nine
teen demands were presented, some
Of a technical character. All were
adopted without serious opposition.
The convention instructed the scale
committee to perfect arrangements
providing a suspension of mining on
April / in the event that no satisfac-
tory agreement has been reached by
March 81, when the present wage
scale expires.
This action was unexpected by some
of the leaders, it was said, and did
not provoke dissenting voices among
it's delegates. 1t has been the custom
of the anthracite miners except in one
or two instances to remain at work
pending the favorable progress OF
wage negotiations. The demands of
the anthracite men will be presented
to the operators after the Indianapolis
convention.
President John L. Lewis of the in
ternatiOnal organization expressed
qualification at the action Of the an
thracite men.
