MILL HANDS
ON A STRIKE
Employes of Woolen Factory
Oppose Cut In Wages.
MANY HAVE GRIEVANCES
Fiftv -Three Operatives Walk
Out of the Weave Room
Causing Shut Down
of Pickery.
Decliniugjto accept a cut of one cent
a yard, and being refused a compro
mise, 53 employes of the weave room
of the Oregou City Manufacturing
Company's woolen mills walked out
at 3 :30 o'clock Tuesday afternoon.
Their action is the result of a trouble
that has been brewing for several
mouths, ami was not unexpected, The
strikers are inclined to blame Gary
Jacobs, who camo here from New
York three months ago and took the
reins of government into his own
hand, for the unfortunate situation.
They say that Jacobs has been making
ralical changes iu the schedule of
wages, with the consent of the officers
of the oompany, A. R. and O. G. Ja
cobs. Wages have boeu reduced in the
dyehouse from $1.50 to $1.35 per day,
and the pay of a number of operatives
in the finishing room has been cut
from f 2 to f 1. 50 per day. H. M. Teni
pleton, foreman of the finishing room,
who has been with the company for
years, has handed in 'his resignation,
declaring he would no longer work
under the new conditions.
Weavers seem to have been getting
the worst end of the differences.
Forty-one looms have been used on
cassimero, and others on blankets and
flannel, and the . weavers have been
unable to make more than $10 per
month, the pay averaging from $36 to
$39. This condition naturally caused
disaffection, as weaving is skilled
labor, and the employes in that de
partment are not content to work for
a bare pittance.
Attempts were made to affeot reor
ganization in a number of t e depart
ments and in the weave room opera
tives were given charge of two looms.
Tuesday a reduction In cassimere
weaving of one oent per yard was an
nouuoed, affecting 18 or 20 people.
Flannel weavers, who had been receiv
ing three cents per yard on one loom,
were pat to two cents and given two
looms. They could not make satisfac
tory wages at this Bcale and at noon
Tuesday held an indignation meeting
but agreed to accept 2 cents per yard
as a compromise. The company, how
ever, declined to make any conces
sions, and Gary Jacobs told the em
ployes so in no unoertain words :
"We will not give it," said he,
"and if yon don't like it, you can all
go out on a farm. "
Every employe of the weave room,
to the number of 53, left the establish
ment at onno.
Three years ago there was a general
strike at the woolen mill-, whioh
lasted a mouth, and was finally ad
justed, the wage scale being generally
increased. A union was formed, and
the employes stood shoulder to shoul
der during the long fight. The spirit
of animosity has remained, however,
and every little while, one of the old
employes is discharged, and a new
man takes his p!aoe This process of
weeding out old men has not passed
unnotioed, and has only served to in
tensify the bitter feeling existing be
tween the operatives and their em
ployes. Spinners, weavers, dyers,
cardors. linishors and employes of the
pullery and wool-sorting departments
have all suffered. Mon have been re
placed by boys and it is freely stated
that thoro are about 85 lads employed
in the mills, thoir ages ranging from
12 to 15 years, in direct violation of
the child-labor law.
Labor Comm,issiouor O. P. Hoff has
twice warned tho nianagors of tho
company against working women em
ployes overtime, and the company
finally discontinued the practice and
put ou a night shift of men and wo
men, but ha"0 not been running nights
since Juno, as the demand for cassi
mere products has fallen off, more
worsteds being used.
Only four looms wore running
Wednesday morning, and 02 were si
lent. The entire working force in the
picking dopartmont was laid olf by
the management, as that branch of
the mill is paralyzed by the shutdown
in the weave room. ,
Missouri Visitors.
Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Miles, of North
eastern Missouri, arrived hero Satur
day for a two weeks' stay. They vis
ited Mr. Miles' brother, F. A. Miles,
until Wednesday, when tho latter
joined them for a trip to St. Helens,
where their uncle resides. They
will spend the remainder of the week
there, and will then go to visit an
uncle at 'Gales Creek, Washington
county. Mr. Miles was here 14 years
ago, and said this morning that in
his opinion Portland and Oregon had
improved ut loast half during the per
iod that has elapsed since his last
visit. Enroute through Oregon, Mr.
and Mrs. Milos stopped at LaGrando
to visit her relatives, and they we.'e
amazed at the growth of North Pow
der Valley.

CITY PROPERTY CHANGES HANDS.
E. M. Howell Selling Off Many Tracts
in Kansas City Addition.
E. M. Howell has struok a good
thing in tho purchase of property in
Kansas City addition, by platting
more than 100 aores and selling them
off in parcels of one lot and over.
Mr. Howell soourod all of the land
that vai unplatted near the addition,
and put them on the market. He has
devised a means of disposing of much
of the laud by contract, and many
people who cannot afford to buy land
outright are taking up lots there on
the installment plan, an are securing
homes. Recent sales embraced six lots
to Horman'Denzlor for $75 a lot; two
acres to Frank Watson for $200; two
and onu-half aores to Mary Cummins
for $200; 20 lots to William Gasterline
for 11400; six lots to Mr?. Bertha
Lowry lor $75 a lot; fivo lots to Isaac
Pursifull for $75 a lot; small tract to
D. Catto for $150; 80 aores to D. W.
May for $2500.
I Tho local real estate market is
rather quiet at pr'sent in the immed
iate vicinity of .Oregon City, but will
probably liven up this iouth. Very
little conntry property ilias changed
hands of late, though Mr. Howell has
sold 18 acres iu the Fisher claim for
$r,no tu O. R. Wallace.

Revised Census Figures Are
Issued by Assessor.
SUM TOTAL IS NOW 21,721
The Population of Clackamis
County Continues to be
a Huge Bone of
Contention.
County Assessor James F. Nelson
has issued a rvised census of Clack-
amas oounty, by which the population
is increased from 20,877 to 21,721, an
increase of 844 over the figures given
out a week ago. Mr. Nelson's force
of deputies was subjected to sevore
criticism by reason of the oounr in the
precincts outside of Oregon City, all
of which were diviisblo by 25, indi
cating a "stuffed" census.' It now
trauspires, however, that the blanks
on which tha population is enumer
ated are ruled to take in 25 names
each, and , morely tho shoots were
counted, and not the odd names in
each precinct.
Orogou City was the only place not
affected by the published statement,
and its population remains unchanged
by the assessor, who is willing to back
up his figures. " Estacada has been
added since the first report was given
out, but it does not. appear by name,
as it is not a separate preoinct.
According to the latest report, the
population of the county is as follows:

RAIN IN THE COUNTRY.
Pastures Helped nd Cool Weather Aids
Growth of Potatoes.
J Attorney Grant D. Dimick and J.
A. King made a trip up Clear croek
Sunday. Mr. Dimiok has a ranch
there. TliGy ,oame in contact with
copious showers of raiu, which wera
welcomod by tho Bottlers of that vi
cinity. Rain fell gonerally over the county
Sunday and was noticeable in the
foothills. In Oregon Oit' light show
ers fell, but the mountains and the
Molalla country have hotter rains as a
rulo than the sootion of Clackamas
county closo to Oregon City.
Pastures that have been drying up
and have been sadly in need of rain,
were benefitted by yosterday'B down
pour. More rain is expected, and the
prevailing cool woathor will help the
growth of potatoes. It is not likely
that hops will be injured, ab mouia
usually appears ouly following rains
that come with Hhort intervals of
warm weather. Hop picking will
commence iu OluokaiiiaB county abouf
September 5. Farmers are nearly all
through threshing, and only a few
stackB are left, and most of these
stacks will stand a little rain.
