April Six hundred strikers, many of whom were armed with revolver, shotguns, rifles and clubs, yesterday drove station men off the Canadian Northern grade on Burns A Jordan s contract at Vale, and compelled them to atop work. Similar Incidents occurred along; the line for 10 miles In camps of Cunning ham A Chew. The station men have hitherto refused to listen to the ap peals of the Industrial Workers' lead ers, and only yielded throuith fear of belna maltreated. The strikers are charged with having Invaded several of the camps and com pelled the cook, under threats of be ing thrown Into the Fraser River, to serve them with free meals. No arrests have been mad'. The strikers In the division east of Spenre'a bridge have driven all the station men off the grade, and are also securing free meals under threats. Work all alous the line Is at a standstill. atrtkrra Flock Coast. Six thousand men employed In the construction companies of the road in British Columbia are Idle as a result of the strike. The men are flocking to the Coast cities, and reports from the construc tion companies that violence has been offered by the strikers have caused thej Vancouver ana victoria ponce 10 mane provisions to deal with any disorders that break out amionn the Incoming Idle men. Officials of the Canadian Tactile Rail way declared today that they would not give employment to any men who left the camps of the Canadian North ern. Premier Richard McBride said that the Canadian Northern contractors would not be permitted to employ Oriental labor to take the places of the strikers. The premier said the agreeemnt the provincial government has with the railroad company resard ing t he non-employment of Orientals was clear and complete, and would be enforced to the letter. Disorder at Vaaroaver. Every train from the eastward brings into Vancouver railway builders from the Canadian Northern line in the Kamloop country, where the Indus trial Workers of the World have called a strike of &000 men engaged In con struing the new transcontinental line. At the Industrial Workers of the World headquarters many new mem bers are being enrolled, and meetings are held every night to instill the doc trines of socialism Into the working men. There has been no disorder. The men who have arrived from the strike country have money and most of them re not seeking work. There is no change in the situation at the front, where work Is completely tied up. The Industrial Workers' leaders say that if the Canadian Northern Rail rir Imports Chinese or employs Orien tals entirely from now on. In order to have their work done, an effort will be made to organise the Orientals. The Industrial Workers declare that the light Is not between the laborers and the Canadian Northern Railway, but of labor in general. In all parts of the uni verse, against capital. sTKIKt NOW 0DEU CONTROL Two Mills Resume? Operation at Aberdeen. Wash. ABERDEEN. Wash.. April 5. (Spe cial.) The backbone of the I. W.

Two mills resumed opera tions and authentic word was received tonight that ttie Anderson iliddleton mill will start up In the morning with a full crew. Before the end of the week It Is said practically every mill on Grays Harbor will be running full blast with a strictly American mill t rev. This afternoon. W. A. Thorne. leader In Aberdeen of the I.

While the situation at present seems placid. there Is every Indication of trouble ahead. Word was received to night through I. W. W. members that 100 railroad lr borers, who had been tirivtn from Vancouver. B. C will reach the city in the morning. The regular police and specials expect to take charge oi the situation without calling upon the citixena. Scores of specials from Seattle. Port land and Tacoma are arriving in the rltv on every train. While no agree ment has been reached between the mtllmen and men returning to work, it Is understood that as soon as a con ference can be called between mill men on the harbor a regular wage schedule will be outlined. According to a statement tonight from one mill, a report recently com pleted by an expert engaged for the purpose of lnvettgat'ng the condi tion of the mills showed that the ef ficiency f tn" average laborer was per cent. Taking this percentage and figuring on a basis of 13 per day minimum wage, millmen say that to the laborer who win prove I'm per rent efn. lency they will pay a minimum scale of t -$ rer dav. It la evidently the object o the .nillmen to do away entirely with foreign labor and to once more mills. place American lanorers in tne SAX DIEGO HAS HOT FIGHT I. W. W.

ROTATION NOT REQUIRED "Alphabetical statcrmcn" Happy Over Plan for Choosing Delegates. SALEM. Or.. April 3. (Special.) "Alphabetical statesmen" who are can didates for delegates to National con ventions and there are many of them are Jubilant over the fact that in all probability the wording of the presi dential preference primary law is such as to preclude the necessity of rotat ing the names of candidates on the election ballots. The law which makes provision for rotation of names on tho bnll"t nro- MIL w i grfey-k-x --r ' r f??? KhAUl i t. iS-.TV DISTRIBUTERS vides that when there are five or more candidates for any one office the names shall be rotated when every so many bullots are printed, thus placing each man at the head of the list an equal number of times with the other candidates. But the primary preference law re quires that each voter can only vote for one candidate for delegate. Thus there are ten separate offices and as a result there are 18 Republican can didates for ten offices and 20 Demo crats for ten offices and it is argued that rotation of names will not apply. It Is contended that 50 candidates for the ten offices would be necessary be fore rotation on the ballots would be necessitated. .
