William son, attorneys, who have been here for some days engaged in the legal work for the organization of the Umatilla River Water User1 association, have completed the articles of Incorpora. tlon and by-laws and forwarded them to the secretary of the interior Sat urday night. With the exception of a few slight change Mr. Holgate states that they are the same as those adopt ed and accepted by the Klamath Falls Water Users' association, and there Is not the slightest doubt but th y will now be approved by the government. A moss meeting will be held next Saturday, January 6, to ratify the ac tlon of the committee and in the or ganization of the water users' assocl atlon. This meeting will be attended by a number of prominent Irrigation 1st In th northwest, and J. T. Whist ler will also be In attendance. It was at first supposed that there would be no Incorporation fees for the association as In the last session of the legislature the money was re turned to the incorporators of the Malheur Water Users' association, but the secretary of state has voted that this would not apply according to the state constitution, consequently ar rangements are being made to pay the necessary corporation fees, which will be about 1116. Stocks are now being subscribed for In the association, and many shares will be taken from now on. The as sociation will be entirely completed next Saturday. Mr. Holgate state that the govern ment will Irrigate between 18,000 and 10.000 aeres. but Just what Uriitory will be covered ha not bn fully de termined.

In Some Instances Concessions Suffic ient to Secure Settlement Have Been Made, In Other Places Not Great Strike of Building Trades Men Has Irobubly Been Averted In New York City Prospect In Philadelphia Not so Favorable Both Sides Express Confidence. their men Is the Pennsylvania rail road which reduced the wages seven per cent about two years ago. The present increase of seven pe cent will bring the wages back to the status of two years ago. Among those who benefit by the 10 per cen Increase are the Iron and Bteel work ers In this district, all the working' men In the Carnegie mills, the Amerl can Steel and Wire company mills, those of the National Tube company the American Sheet Steel and Tin plate company, the Jones & Laughlin company, and the Pressed Steel Car company. New Tork, Jan. 1. The great war of the Typographical union against the master printers has begun all over the country and some local trou ble may be expected as the result of the war. The New York Typothaeta having rejected the demand of the Typographical Union No. 6 for an eight-hour day, a general strike of the typesetters has been ordered, which Involves nearly every large printing establishment In the city. Many of the larger houses have tor weeks made efforts to bring non union printers to this city and al though a great many of them have been secured, the strike will, ' never theless, cause considerable difficulty to the local printing trade. The members of the New York Ty pothetae maintain that the granting of an eight-hour day would cut their profits to such an extent that It would practically drive them out of business. They assert that the mar gin of profit in their business Is very small, owing to the great competition and any serious reduction of the prof Its would cause direct loss. Never theless they intend to spend a sum greater it necessary to win than the total profits would amount to under the present number of hours' work. Several thousand non-union printers, most of whom were employed In some of the smaller open shops, havo been Induced by the owners of larger es tablishments to take the places of the strikers and many of the smaller es tablishments will find themselves practically without help for a short time only, as the recruits are usually Incompetent, not having served at the business any considerable length of time and therefore not eligible to membership in the Typographical union. ' "The New York Typothetae have !ht out orders nil through the coun try for non-union men, offering them their railroad fare and expenses and the promise of steady employment Every man must sign a contract stat ing that he is not a member of any labor union. In Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 1. The strike of the typesetters against th master printers who have refused to grant the demand of an elght-hou working day, has begun In earnest. Although some of the establishments In this city have granted the deman of the Typographical union No; 2, few others have refused to make the concession. A large number of non union compositors have been Import ed from other cities and the maste printers hope to be able to contlnu their business without Interruption, A typesetting school has been operation on Arch treet for some time, at the expense of the master printers and every one of the youn men graduated from that school will find a position wltfiout any effort on his part. Among the students who have been patronizing that institution are young women, former stenogra phcrs and typewriters, who expect to find their new occupation far more remunerative than their former. Sim liar schools are said to have been opened In New York, Chicago an Dallas, T The International Typographical union has issued a bulletin, stating that agreements have been reached between the employers and about 250 local unions tn various cities all over the country. According to this re port only 40 or 46 cities are affected by the strike. The International union Is confident that the master printers who arc still holding out against the demand for an eight-hour day, will soon be compelled to give In. Some the prominent members of the union maintain that many of the local or ganlzatlons of the Typothetae in the larger cities of the east are divided on the subject and a splitting of some of these organizations may soon be expected. The Typothetae of this city deny the correctness of thlB statement and express the belief that the strik ers would lose their fight. Tha threatened strike of the 100. 000 skilled men In the various build ing trades has. fortunately been aver ted, every union, excepting the Housesmlths' and Brldgemen. having .signed a trade agreement for from one to three years, which agreements go into effect today. Nearly In every case the unions have obtained some concessions. The differences between the em ployers and the unions which have not yet signed the agreements have been submitted to the arbitration board. and It Is hoped a compromise will be reached soon. By deciding to sign the trade agreement the various unions have officially repudiated the strike of the structural Iron work ers. As this would Imply, that In case of a strike the strikers would not re ceived any aid, It Is scarcely probable that there will be any difficulty In bringing about the settlement of the remaining differences.
