miners Of West Virginia, Kentucky, 81
Alabama, have better conditions. No
doubt District No. II has higher ton
mage and yardage rates, but other
wise all they lack to make them
slaves while at work is ball and
chain around their ankle when in the
mine so far as conditions exist.
let me illustrate some of the con-
ditions in District No. II which can
not be denied except by traitors and
office holders.
.l Men As Mules.
The average car holds four tons,
these cars have to be of from $50 to
300 feet. I have witnessed men put
ting their backs to ears and pushing
them foot by foot until they get them
to the face. These men were ex-
hausted and yet had to hurry and load
to be ready for motor.
1 have seen track layers hitching
themselves up like mules and drag
ging motor rails two or three hundred
yards OF packing heavy motor ties
material that is delivered to them in
non-union fields. A company man
dare not be caught eating during
working hours for if caught by the
boss he is either fired or put in the
dirt gang Slavery. The dirt gang
cleans up new territories to be
opened up. The refuse is absolutely
dry. The men work in cloud of
dust all day and do not get one
minute rest during working hours.
A boss stands over the gang all
the time. I have seen a boss ex-
changing his lamp for the laborer's
lamp when it needed carbide and go
and put carbide in it and hand it to
him so as to keep him at work. If
a company man kicks he is put into
penal servitude, the dirt gang. He has
no redress in District No. II.
On the Midland R. R., 100 men went
out on Sunday and loaded and hoisted
coal, while thousands of their brothers
have been idle since last April one
year ago, and yet Fishwick and Mes
bit would have us believe this is the
banner district.
There is no such thing as hours in
the Peabody Mines. Motor men haul
coal all day. If they refuse they are
put in the dirt gang or fired. There
is no redress for them as the pit COM
mittees is a joke.
IN,oo III
mines as there is no square turn kept
Gang men get all the cars they can
load in preference to room men, and
also push out their loads. The dirtiest
scab in any district could not stoop
lower than the gang men Of District
No. u and no square turn is kept for
room men. Dead work IS a farce
There is no pay for any class of de-
ficiency. Falls are cleaned up for
nothing Bottom from to feet is
bowed up and cleaned for nothing.
Dirtiest Vein.
This vein of coal in District No. II
is the dirtiest vein in the U. s.
barring none. 1t is impossible to
load it clean enough to satisfy con-
tract. If two handfuls of impurities
are found in a four or five ton car OF
coal you are locked (finedD and the
most unjust and cruel feature IS you
are not allowed to see the impurities
you are fined for Convicted without
chance to defend yourself. The fine
for first offense is so cents and for
the second S1.00, for the third $2.CC
or $500. A days layoff follows in
some mines after the third offense

COURT DlSMISSES PAIR
ON SPLITTING CHARGE

Declaring a policeman should always
inform a prisoner on arrest Of the
charge against him, Judge Gus A.
Schuldt yesterday dismissed charges of
expectotating on the sidewalk against
Paul Norval Powell and Robert w
Davidson, who claim they we're accused
of that offense after police had threat
ented to book them for vagrancy but
found they could not make" such a
case.
Policeman w. Z. Lawson Of the sew
enth precinct arrested the men as they
were emerging from an alleged gambling
establishment In the 1000 block of Wis
consin avenue. Powell testified he
proved to the officer that he worked
for laundry and cared for his family
while Davidson showed he worked for
an express company. They both denied
having expectorated on the sidewalk
Attorney Harry T. Whelan, who ap-
peared for the defendants, claimed the
policeman has boasted he would "get"
every man seen coming out of the sus-
pected gambling establishment, at which
he was stationed during the recent
police ''picketing" campaign.

FIRE MEETING is
HALTED BY ALARM

A few rolls of film, smoke
blown by a north wind, and lack
of investigation, combined last
evening to interrupt meeting
of the Juneau Fire Department.
Fred X. Ordway, proprietor of
the Alaska Scenic Views. was
burning some film and other trash
in a stove in his place of bust
ness. The smoke. blown towards
Front Street, gave the building
the appearance of being afire,
with the result that some person
turned in an alarm without giving
the matter second thought.
At approximately 8 o'clock last
evening the bell rang, and a large
number of the firemen, attending
meeting, raced to Front Street,
only to find the alarm was false.

 In the rot distant future, it is expected that there will be a sub stantial cod-fishing and halibut- fishing industry develop in the waters adjacent. Fishermen en- gagged in these enterprises will be able to take up homesites, which would not be possible were the islands still in the reserve.
 The Aleutian Island Bird Re- serve was established in 1910 as a refuge and breeding grounds for birds. Investigations have shown that not a great many species of valuable birds breed there and that many of the islands with drawn are adaptable for settlement and certain forms of industry.

FIVE ISLANDS
 WILL BE TAKEN
 FROM RESERVE
Larger Islands Will Be FL minated from Aleutian
 Bird Reservation

The restoration to the public do- main of five of the largest islands ill the Aleutian Island Bird Re serve in the near future is indi- eated by reports received here from authentic sources. This is ihe continuation of ten years of eff fort on the part of the several Governors Of Alaska serving during that time and, it is said, as a re- suli of the visit made to the Terri tory last summer by Paul c. Red ington, Chief of the |. s. B.ologi- cal Survey
 The islands which is is proposed to eliminate from the reserve, are: Umnak. Unalaska, Akutan, Sanak and Tigalda, the last named in- cluding a few other small islands adjacent This will leave all Of Che Aleutians west of Umnak in the reserve but they are largely of rocky formation and not especial ly desirable for any industrial pur- pose.
 On the islands to be Eliminated fheie are many areas suitable for

CHANCE NOW
 PROPOSED IN
 FISHING LAWS
Delegate Introduces Meas ure to Amend Old
 1906 Law

WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.-Lib- eralization cf fishing laws is pro- posed in a bill introduced by Delegate Sutherland from Alaska. The measure would amend the old 1906 law that prohibits can ming and salting of salmon after it has been out of the water more than 4S hours.
 The proposed amendment would permit canning and salting of fish after they have been dead that long provided they have been iced. It was explained that under the present. fishermen. who had obtained a catch and could not get it canned or salted with in IS hours. were prevented from so doing even if they had proper icing facilities. The amendment now proposed would premit can ming and salting even if the fish had been iced a week or more, resulting in conservation of the salmon supply and making the industry more profitable
