Miners and prospectors got another
solar plexus blow when the Seattle
outfit that monopolizes the oil and
fuel of this camp raised the price of
oil another dollar and a half a barrel
All the traffic will bear seems to be
the slogan with this patriotic com
pany. Up with the profits, let every
thing else go hang—huh?. More
over the increase in price like the in
crease in the price of coal is heralded
as merely the forerunner of another
price still higher after the close of
navigation. Sulzer’s so all doggoned
busy studying how to get another
twelve dollars an ounce for gold he
hasn’t got time to study the situa
tion as far as prices for other com
modities are concerned.

preparatory to entering upon the

council about this time.
The storm that locally prevailed
since Friday was not accompanied by
very high tides. It was a heavy
enough sea that was running how

was not damaged to any extent.
The heavy surf yesterday did not
deter the Coast Guardsmen from
“daring the dangerous wave.” to pro
ceed to the government boat in the
roadstead. They were after the doc
tor, but the trip was too rough for
him to venture in the dory. It was
certainly some surf that was raging,
and as the coast guardsmen returned,
they had an audience of several hun
dred at Barrack Square watching
the fight of the skilled oars and
helmsman against the elements that
rushed frantically to the foaming
beach and threatened every minute
to overwhelm them.

OPPOSE WAR CHEST PLAN
The War Chest Fund plan pro
posed by the King County Defense
found no favor on a vote before the
Central Labor Council of Seattle.
The plan was turned down. The plan
was presented by the Chairman of
the King County Council of Defense
and was referred by the Central La
bor Council to a committee. The
committee reported favorably and
recommended that all affiliated unions
establish a war chest to which each
member should pay each month a
portion of his earnings. This war
chest fund to take the place of the
various "drives”. The report of the
committee was attacked by many
speakers at the meeting when it came
lU' for consideration, one of the Boil
ermakers representatives declaring
"we would ne using our influence as a
guiding and advisory body for labor
to foist upon the rank and file, al
ready overburdened with rent hogs
and food profiteers compelling a man
to contribute a certain amount each
month regardless of hip feelings in
the matter and regardless of whether
he could pay it or not.

there is no freedom for labor at all

domination over the workmen in the
woods now and after the war.” The
resolutiori tinges the Sec*etar;| of
War to remove Colonel Disque.
