Bosses Worried. The following, under date of Thllursday, has been received frit') the publicity committee of L. W. I. i'. No. 500, at Spokane: "The lulnberjacks' strike is still on. This strike started three weeks ago, and was caused by the tonm panies raising the board 25 cents a day and making a charge of $1 a week for blankets. The lumber in dustry of eastern Washington, Idahoi and Montana is practically at a standstill. Only a few "jylpos" are working. Pickets are on the job night andtll day il all the hlunibel townlls. 'A few days ago the lulber Itarons held a meeting which lasted two days. At the end of this meeting t the Spokane papers announced theliy had decided to employ no molre I 1W. W.s, even if they had to be con tent wiith a decreased output.' Ninety per cent of the lumberjacks in this section are organized in the I. WV. W.. so if no I. W. V.s are employed it will mean that productionl will be cut to 10 per cent of normal. There is an active detmand for lumbenr and prices never were so highl. The lutlt ber barons atre in blutsiness to mllakie profits. If they were to employ no more I. W. \V.s they would cut 90' per cent off their profits. "The one thing, above all others sacred to busitness men is their profits. To suppose that they would deliberately kill their god is ridicu lous. As long as the demand for lumber is good and prices are high. they will speed up productioln. They think they could make bigger profits by employing workers who are not mlelmbers of the I. XV. W., hence their efforts to get rid of the or ganization, but the I. WV. WV. has got too firtn a hold on the lumber in dtustry to be shakenl off. The lunl ber batrons will have to be content with the profits produced by the I. WX. WV.s or they will see 90 per cent of those profits vanish alto gether. But the situation would be mituch worse than this. Practically all Ihe real lumlberjacks belong to the union. The 10 per cent unor-ý ganized are inot efficient workers. ''It would be impossible to run i ctantp profitably with 10 per cent of a crow, even of gotod llituberjacks; mluch less with i green hands. "The lumbeir barons also omitted to explaitn how they are going t., eliminate thle I. WV. WV. There is lito outward or vi.tible difference be tween an I. \V. WX, and another itlan. When the strik,er:; go back oni the job, if the detltandsi are not conceded the intermittetnt strike and the job strike will be used. The cotmpanier know this and it is causing theni much ulneasiness. "It seems they are unable to find a way out and after discussing tile question for two dtlays the, are nn able to offer any better solution than the one above mentioned which any one cognizallt of the facts knows to he utterly impracticablle andi impossi I ble. "Early in 1t917 those gentlemtn atnounnced their intention of keep ing all I. WV. W\. out of the camps but aftler nearly three years there are more I. W. W.V.s in the camps than \'ver before. "The lublher 1arons are on t(he horns of a dilemtma. No wonder they are perllexed. Tlh ey want workers but not worklrs of sufticient intelligente! to tie uniolln menO. The only available worklers are unlionl lmenI. To employ these ameans de creased profits. Not to employ them1 leans no profits at all. Their de lay in deciding to choose the least of Cthe two evils shows they feel their hold on the lumber industry slippineI Sandli have not the Courage to face. ) the inevitable.

SOOSA EXPEBT WITH GUNS AS WELL AS WITH BANDS Practically all of the civilized world is familiar with I,ieut. John Philip Sousa, th" band leader, and hundreds have g:ven imitations of himnt when leading his hand. Many also know that he is a composer of operas, words and music, has writ ten some splendid books and that he has composed more than 1(00 suc cessful marches. But only his friends know him when he puts aside his uniform and becomes a plain American citizen, ready for any fun or frolic. He is a lover and student of nature, and passes weeks every year "out in the wilds" with his horses, his dogs and his guns. "Always treat animals like friends and not like slaves," is his motto, and if you are desirous of argument just dispute his assertion that the greatest of all recreations are the companionship of a good horse and a faithful dog, a dependable gun, followed by a chat with a pretty girl. Mr. Sousa has become one of the best trap shooters inl the country, and his home at Port Washington, L. I., is littered with the trophies he has won. Lieutenant Sousa and his world famous band will be heard at the Broanway theater on next Thursday' evening under tl.( auspices of the Butte post of the A-ifi'rican Legion. R.., PRESIDENT SEES AND KNOWS IT ALL President Robert S. Lovett of the Union Pacific railroad and a number of other leading railroad of ficials arrived in Butte Saturday evening in a special train of seven cars. According to the carefully de tailed story in the morning papers, Judge Lovett went to bed at i o'clock Saturday night, arose at 6 o'clock Sunday morning, read the morning papers before breakfast at 7 a. im., and then proceeded afoot to niake a tour of the railroad sta tions and yards of Butte. It was claimed that ,Judge Iovelt walkeou some four miles through the snow. in the course of his jaunt. After completing this feat, Judge Robert S. Lovett, president of the Union Pa cific Railroad company, again board ed the special train of seven cars and departed with his party over the O. S. L. in the direction of Pocatello, Ida. the morning papers state that Judge Lovett, in the course of his walk yesterday morning, attained a detailed knowledge of the railroad business in Butto. They also state that Judge Lovett feels complete confidence in the ability of the Washington officials to secure an amicable and satisfactory adjust ment of the presently threatening situation in the labor world. JOBS ARE SOUlHI FOR RETURNED SOLDIERS Many Butte employers have re ceived lately communications from Edwin C. Weemple, western district director for the secretary of war. The letters are appeals to the em ployers to find jobs for the returned service men of high technical train ing who have recently come back from the army more or less broke. Mr. Wemple says: "A great many men are now calling for help who have never before been placed in the position of having to look for a job. Many of these men are men of pride, whom it hurts to ask anybody for as sistance." Mr. Wemple earnestly urges the employers of Butte to save these men of high technical training and sensi tive natures from the embarrassment of having to look for a job. In the meantime millions of men and wom en rustle daily for jobs at the gates of mines, mills and factories. To as sume that the highly trained have a monopoly on pride or that their stomachs gnaw more distressingly, when unfed, than the bellies of the unskilled, is perhaps a natural con clusion for Mr. Weemple to reach, but that it is a mistake many working men and workingwomen will main tain. CHILDHOOD SWEETHEART SEARCHES FOR HER EMiL Sixteen years ago in Vermlandtl Sweden, Miss Alma Peterson and Emil Johnson were playmates. Then both came to the United States, but at different times. Saturday Miss Peterson, accompanied by her sister, Mrs. Ellen Miller, as chaperon, ar rived in Butte in search of Emil, whom they had been led to believe was elmplloyed here as a carpenter. Since then tIhe police department and the reportorial staff of every news paper in town have been searching assiduously for Emil. Several Emils have been produced, but in each case he was the wrong one. SPECIAL METING IN CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS A special meeting is called to night in the council chambers of the city hall for all the boosters of the proposed Armistice day celebration.
