CI0 WORKERS
AND PACKERS
REACH PEACE
Agreement Signed Gives
Federation Relogni-
tion-CIosed Shop

SAN FRANCISCO. May 25.-Sign-
ing of an agreement between the
Alaska Packers Association and the
Cannery Workers Union, CLIO, was
announced today as the first ship
departed for the North.
z. r. Brown, Maritime Federation
agent for District No. Two, said the
agreement boosted wages OF workers
about half million dollars for the
season, but A. K Tichenor, General
Manager of the Alaska Packers, said
he did not care to comment until
we get the last boat cleared
Brown said the agreement pro-
vided overtime pay for Sunday work,
the first time such clause has been
agreed upon.
The agreement also included rec
ords for the use of crew members of
five other affiliates with the Mari
time Federation, the AFU, Ship
wrights and Joiners, Marine Cooks
and Stewards, Machinists, and Am
erican communications Association,
who all had previously won wage in
creases and other concessions.
Brown said some provisions had
been made that the Cannery Work
ers' contract will give official recog-
nitino by the Packers to the Mari
time Federation and that cannery
workers will be classed as yearly em-
ployees, with negotiations on a
coastwide industry basis.
Also, Brown said a 100 percent
closed shop is provided for with the
workers right to form Shop Com
mittees on jobs, workers selecting
representatives from their own
ranks
The wage scale increase, Brown
said, represented roughly, eleven
percent over the correct 1887 scale.

An account book kept more
than 100 years ago by a pioneer
West Virginia merchant is in the
possession of Earl Talbot of
Great Falls. Entries in this aged
volume reveal that a century ago
some now costly commodities were
cheap and others now command
ing small prices were expensive.
Who the merchant was that kept
the book IS not known but it was
brought west by the father of W. H.
(BilD Yarnall. The latter gave the book
to Talbot, well known as collector
of relics.
Entries in the book date back as
far as Feb. 3, 1885 examination of the
entries shows the owner was not only
a merchant but money lender. mill
er, banker, liquor vender and adjuster
of family difficulties.
In 1885. this old account book shows,
flour was selling for 50 hundred
tobacco for 1881 cents a pound, po-
tatoes for 25 cents a bushel, salt was
2 cents a pound, beef 3 cents pound,

another customer paid 25 cents for a

other commodities to the merchant
AS much as S1.10 a bushel was paid
for wheat in 1886, while the price of
flour was So a hundred, or 81 more
than a year previous.
The intimate relationship between
the merchant and his customers is
indicated by entries showing loans or
cash advances. Cash advanced by the
merchant ranged from a few cents to
many dollars and most accounts were
paid in full.
The unknown merchant was me-
thodical and exact, prices being figured
to the eighth of a cent He stated
the purpose of cash loans, one Gus

others were allowed small amounts to

Little was paid for labor and the
record reveals that one customers boy

and that from 81 1-3 cents to 81 a
day was paid for harvesting.
