STRIKE WAS SHORT LIVED
BREWERY DRIVERS GRANTED
THEIR DEMANDS.
Employers Allowed Their Plants to
Be Tied Up But Half a Day
What the Men Wanted.
A strike began and ended yesterday In
the brewery business of Portland and
vicinity. The nnion brewery workers an
nounced that thes' would quit work unless
certain demands of the Drivers' Union
were acceded to. All the morning Wein
hard's, Gambrinus and the Star Brewery
were idle. Welnhard's men went to work
again at noon. The Gambrinus announced
that their men would start in again this
"morning, and the Star Brewery, which is
located at Vancouver, will probably do
the same. The Astoria brewery fell Into
line early, and was reported to have
granted the demands without hesitation.
The strike was in the interest of the
Boer Drivers' Union. A demand embody
ing the following conditions had been
submitted by the executive committee of
the union, to support which the members
of the Drivers' Union and the Journey
men Brewers Union In this internal rev
enue district struck:
For regular route drivers, 520 a week.
Special or express drivers, $lSf a week.
Stablemen, $15 a week.
Nine hours' work in Winter and ten in
Summer.
Overtime, 50 cents an hour.
Allowance for saloon expenses, 50 cents
a day, and
Expenses in a saloon where money Is
collected by driver, to be left to the
brewers themselves.
Regular drivers are those in charge of
the large delivery wagons, liaullng kegs
and barrels to saloons, depots and
wharves. The special drivers are in
charge of wagons used to fill special or
immediate orders. Stablemen care for the
norses, but belong to the Drivers' Union.
But little was said regarding the strike
yesterday. Members of the Drivers'
Union and Journeymen Brewers were re
markably quiet on the subject Mr. Weln
hard stated that he granted the demands
and thought he would save money by It,
as he said be paid regular drivers $90
before. At the Gambrinus Brewery the
management simply said the strike had
been settled and work would be resumed
this morning. Negotiations with the Star
Brewery were about in the same condi
tion. The president of the company was ab
sent from the city until a late hour, but
it was undertsood on the street that he
would follow the course of Welnhard's
and Gambrinus. Reports had not been re
ceived from Albany. Astoria was one of
the first places to report Its local brewery
agreeable to the requests of the Drivers'
Union.
The management of the breweries
thought the action of the Journeymen
Brewers hasty, at least. Their walking
out at the hour for commencement of
work, when large quantities of malt and
other material was In such condition as
to endanger its value, and only because
of sympathy for drivers, seemed to be
regarded an unfair advantage to take.
All the brewers' employes' except en
gineers and firemen were Included In the
strike. The management of two brew
erics insisted that no notice was given
of the purpose of Journeymen Brewers
to strike previous to the actual walk
out. The expense money demanded is such
as is spent by a driver being a good fel
low among patrons. Whenever a collec
tion is made by a driver the saloon pro
prietor expects a small disbursement.
The amount of this is to be determined
by the brewers themselves, while the
nxed sum of 50 cents a day Is to be
used In a general manner.
Reflections of ss Outsider.
Portland, Sept. 26. (To the Editor.)
Come philosopher has said we are not yet
at the halfway point of human develop
ment. How he arrives at so exaot a
measurement we do not know, but we are
sure the perfect freedom of employer and
the perfect freedom of the employed, the
perfect union of interest between labor
and capital, has not been obtained. 'Mr.
Henry 'Welnhard, of the City Brewery,
found himself the recipient of a strike
much as the pastoral pastor sometimes
finds himself the victim of a surprise
party. He slept the sleep of innocence
and woke to find thousands of dollars'
worth of good Oregon barley going to
pot, or rather going to waste, because it
could not 'go to pot, for that a strike had
grown like a mushroom. Everyone was
satisfied before they struck, but they
struck, nevertheless, .not for their altars
end their fires, but for some other fel
lows. Mr. Welnhard began business
where he now is In 1862. What he Is he
owes to his Industry and ability. He Be
gan at the very bottom and today has a
sympathy for the laboring man. His em
ployes were paid as he thought they
merited, some Wgher, some lower, but, so
far as" we can Jearn, everyone was satis
fled. But -the Drivers' Union ordered a
strike because of diusatlsf action with
drivers pay In other breweries. Mr.
Welnhard says he, with other brewers,
cttended a meeting, but no demand was
made of him personally, and he never did
refuse the demands of the union, which
was for $20 per week for regular route
drivers and $15 for extra drivers, as a
minimum. He was already paying regu
lar drivers $90 per month and extras $15
to $17 per week, and nover docked his
people for sickness or occasional short
jQbMSlOSib Today, as soon as the demand
was made on him, he agreed to It So he
pays no more money now. The high men
lose and the low men gain. Men will be
docked for absence and each party will
do what he Is obligated to do and no
more. A hard, hostile feeling has taken
the place of a kindly one, and as It seems
to us this particular union has done more
harm than good In this particular In
stance. Nor do we think the union acted
with due regard to the equitable and
legal rights of the employer when, with
out warning, It sprung a strike on a great
enterprise like the City Brewery, the
brewers deserting in the middle of the
week in a sympathetic strike with the
drivers. It seems to us, in fairness, the
employer should have had a notice equal
in length to the period of which the men
are paid, namely, one week. As the
strike was conducted, Mr. Welnhard
would have had to accede to any demand
whatever or suffer great loss In the malt
and beer then in process of work. W.
WILL NOT GO TO OHIO.
Governor Gcer'a CninpaiBrn to Be in
Oregon, Washington and Idaho.
Among the callers at Republican head
quarters yesterday were Governor Gear.
Representative George J. Barrett, of
Grant County, and S. M. Yoran, of Eu
gene. Governor Gecr will not canvass
Ohio, as he originally intended. He will
be given a number of assignments in
Oregon for the last three weks of tho
campaign. Prior to that time he may
make speeches in Idaho nnd Washington.
Mr. Barrett says Grant County will give
McKinley 300 majority.' Its people are
more prosperous than eve- before, anil
they have more money per capita than
at any time since the days of the placers.
Mining Is entering upon the period or
great development, and the railroad head
ed for the John Day Valley will, when
completed, add a larga productive region
to the agricultural area of Oregon. What
ever strength the free-silver clement had
has been dissolved oy the prosperity of
the past three years, and Bryanism is
on Its last legs.
Chairman Steel has received a number
of requests for dates 'or Hon. George H.
Williams, including one from. Idaho. How
many of these will be filled depends upon
the time Judge Williams Jan take from
his law practice. It Is "probable that he
will make several speeches, including one
at Portland towards "lie close of the
campaign. Judge Williams' iamc as tin
orator Is known throughout Oregon, as
he has been a familiar figure at the
hustings for over 40 years. The Astoria
Republicans consider themselves fortu
nate In securing him for their opening
rally on October 4. and are planning a.
great demonstration.
Robert F. Bell and A. E. Gebhart have
been assigned to address the Republican
rally at West Portland October 6.
C A. Cogswell and B. B. Beekman ex
pect to go to Lake County on business
shortly. While away, they will do mis
sionary work for the Republicans.
Quiet rules at the Bryan headquarters.
No Eastern speakers will come to Oregon,
and the oratory for Bryan will be by lo
cal, spellbinders. The fact Is that the
Fuslonlsts have no hope of carrying Ore
gon and will make no very determined
effort to win a victory. The majorities
given Wolverton for ...Supreme Judge and
Bailey for Dairy Commissioner in June
settled the status of Oregon for Novem
ber. There havo been Presidential elec
tions when the opposition to the Repub
lican candidates was nearly as hopeless
as it Is this year, notably 186S, but never
has the Democracy been so seemingly
willing to let the battle go by default.
The fighting spirit was taken out of-the
Fuslonlsts. by the June election, and ef
fort is directed toward keeping up or
ganization, rather than with a view of
adding Oregon to the Bryan column.
SPECIAL TRAIN FOR HUNTERS
Mar Be Provided Up "Went Side if
Patronage Be Sufficient.
The close season for upland birds will
end next Sunday, and it is certain that
hunters will be on hand to get thevearly
bird. Indeed, circumstances make it ex
tremely probable that a few birds will
suffer Illegal death, unless palnsnbe takenN
to guard against untimely slaughter. On
the west side of the Willamette Valley
there Is no Sunday train. Hunters might
wait until Monday to go up the West
Side to shoot pheasants, but It Is morally
certain that they won't wait. They are
afraid that somebody else will get In a
shot ahead. So the sportsmen of Port
land are very likely to go up the Valley
Saturday night In order to be with the
birds the moment the open season begins.
And in such case what will happen Sun
day may better be imagined than "de
scribed. It has occurred to Game Warden Qulm
by that to get a special train to go up
the West Side Sunday afternoon "he would
bo doing the sportsmen a favor, and at
the same time aid in preserving the law.
Sportsmen would then have no legitimate
excuse for going out Saturday, and they
would not be to the expense and annoy
ance and temptation of putting in( an un
necessary day away from home in the
game country without the right to hunt.
He has found that the Southern Pacific
will run out the extra train Sunday
afternoon, providing the usual comforta
ble accommodations and charging only
the regular fare, on a guarantee of 100
passengers. If these shall be secured,
the train will go.
An Immense, amount of grain has been
raised In the vicinity of MWhler this sea
son. It Is estimated that more than
500,000 bushels of grain .will be ''shipped"
from pat station.

QUARTERLY INSPECTION.
First Fall Turn-Out of Third' Rcerl
znent, O. N. G.
Quarterly Inspection and muster at the
Armory last evening by the Third Regi
ment, O. N. Q., broke the long quiet that
has prevailed there during 'the Bummer
months. For the first appearance after
vacation a good attendance was, present.
The regimental band, noncommissioned
staff and all the companies were lined up,
and marched In review before Colonel
Everett, Lieutenant-Colonel Jubitz and
the regimental staff. After brief review
exercises, Colonel Everett ordered the two
Majors to take their respective battalions
onto the drill floor and put them through
battalion maneuvers. In drill work men
socn get rusty by lack of practice, but
the good effects of the encampment and
attention to their companies by Captains
was manifest last evening in the move
ments. Next week commence 'the regular drills
for the "Winter." An elaborate programme
has been outlined by Colonel Everett,
which will be followed closely. ' Compa
nies are to receive, instruction ,in the
fundamental principles of drill, and. from
that work gradually take up other fea
tures, thus insuring, thorough familiarity
with the tactics sofar as regards dis
tance, interval, alignment arid the simple
features that make .for best appearance
on the floor.
Quite a number of people were present
In the galleries last evening to witness
the maneuvers. The music of the band
and marching of the troops vare becoming
strong attractions, particularly , to all
friends of the Qjiard.

SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING.
Routine Business Beside Passage of
Blanket Ordinance.
; An adjourned meeting of the Common
Council was held yesterday,. Mayor Rowe
presiding, and all the members present
except Sherrett. The principal object of
holding the adjourned meeting was to
consider the blanket license ordinance,
which was passed under suspension of
the rules by a unanimous vote. A sum
mary of the ordinance will be found In
another column.
lfa.'F. Powers, who was present at the
njeetlng, after the ordinance had Tjeen
parsed asked leave to say a few words,
and permission being granted he proceed
ed to commend the Council for Its ac
tion. He said It had been his opinion for
years that persons diln? business in the
city ought to pay a license. He Is in fa
vor of licensing every team employed in
the city and keeping the streets in or-
dor. He thought those who opposed the
vehicle, license ordinance do not thorough
ly, understand the situation. The law is
so that It was practically impossible to
get repairs made to streets. He goes
about town more than most people, and
knows what a difficult thinff It was to get
streets repaired, even when they were
Impassable. Since he had been located in
the southern part of the city he has been
obliged to expend several hundred dol
lars to put streets In condition for his
teams to travel on. Property-owners
nearly always object to repairing strpets.
They do not care, and will not expend
their money on repairs. This matter of
repairing streets, he said, ought to be in
the hands of the Council; and no .one else.
He does not think the "license high
enough, but the object of the ordinance
is all right.
An ordinance to amend the vehicle
lioense ordinance by providing that malt
wagons, drawn by two horses, shall pay
$7 60 per quarter, instead of $10, and pro
viding that one-seated automobiles shall
pay a license of $1 50 per quarter and two
seated automobiles, $3 per quarter, was
taken from the table and passed.
Merrill suggested that a tax be pro
vided for motor cycles, as some were com
ing here soon. It was, however, decided
that another amendment could be Insert
ed In the law to provide for them when
they come.
An ordinance providing for regulating
the operation of street-cars and the pay
ment of the license on such cars, as pro
vided In franchises granted by the former
cities qf East Portland and Alblna, and
defining the "one-horse car" mentioned In
such franchises as a car not oyer 18 feet
In length, and a two-horse car as one
from 18 to 30 fe;t in length, was referred
back to the license committee for fur
ther consideration.
An ordinance providing for the licensing
of one-day auctioneers, selling to dealers
alone, laid over at the last meeting, was
taken from the table and passed.
A resolution Introduced by Masters au
thorizing the Judiciary Committee to em
ploy additional counsel to assist the City
Attorney, if they deemed necessary, in
defending the city In the suit enjoining
collection of the vehicle license, was
adopted.
Petitions for the Improvement of East
Thirtv-fifth street, East Eleventh street
and Tillamook street were referred to the
Street Committee. ,
The petition of S. J. "Walter for dam
ages Incurred on account of a defective
sidewalk was referred to the Jdiciary
Committee.
Remonstrances against the proposed
improvement of East Tenth and East
Twelfth streets, were referred to tho
street committee.
