I.W.W. ANSWERS ARREST BY
CALLING FURTHER STRIKES
SEATTLE, Aug. 17.—Answering
the arrests of men who are held
without trial at Ellensburg, North
Yakima, Wenatchoy, the Industrial
ists have decided to strike on all
construction and agricultural work
in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Mon
tana, on Augst 20. It will mean
any way fifteen thousand men added
to the strikers now out.
Governor Lister's demand to the
lumber trust that they grant the
eight hour* day has been refused
point blank. Not one camp an
swered the Governor’s re
quest, but some of the
very few ten hour camps which have
been working have been added to
the strke list.
‘ The trust has now contracts with
the government for spruce for aero
planes at one hundred and five dol
lar? a thousand which last
year could not find a
market at eighteen dol
lars a thousand. In the face of
this the trust calls the men demand
ing the eight hour day unpatriotic.
The iron ore strike of the I.WWV. is
spreading. Eight thousand are al
ready involved. This is the only Am
erican source of Manganese ore
which has previously been imported
from Sweden. The Cuynana range
has been entirely closed and hund
reds of gunmen are being shipped to
th i range.
The farmers of N'orth Dakota
have conceded the wage scale of the
industrialists *'or five dollars a day
of ten hours. In South Dakota tlie
harvest working is partly closed by
a harvest strike owing to th% dis
crimination against the industrialists
and citizens leagues.
Fourteen members of the T. W. \V
were jailed in Portland charged with '
vagrancy because they went on
strike on the Columbia river boats ij
for better conditions and job con
trol. They have won this in a
number of cases and now have job 1 j
control and eight
restaurants.

The destruction of this cathedral

we will be in the best of positions to make you a correspondingly j
low price which will include all charges upon the same conditions 1
as in the past.
