'' Two car ar still running to Oregon
City, but with Tiffany and Stuart, who
are described as being careless, reckless
and Incompetent, at the helm and prac
tically carrying on what Is left ot the
entire business ot the system, the com'
pany Is very evidently getting uneasy and
fearful that some great casualty will oc
cur If any number of passengers should
risk their lives on the cars. . Hence, the
notice advising them not to do so. Above
all other times the company cannot af
ford to have anaccldent Just : now. It
would forever ruin Its cause and Tiffany
and-, Stuart would have to go. The com
Pany virtually acknowledged tha Incom
petency of these men when : the notice'
was posted. Were they, capable of filling
- the positions "on the Toad, the company
Would solicit patronage. But it does not
want to see any lives lost at the present
time,, and therefore makes a pitiful ap
peal for the publlo not to run chances of
sacrificing life and limb by going out on
a car that Tiffany runs and for which
Stuart Issues' dispatches. The strikers
nd the company agree upon one point,
vis.,, that Tiffany and Stuart are incom
petent '.:.
P. M. Ashmore, the non-union man who
failed to sever his. connections with the
company, is playing in hard luck. He
gets a square meal occasionally, but not
so frequently as the majority of work
ingmen. In fact, it is said that he Is not
only forced to go hungry while perform
ing kia duties, but that he Is also obliged
to go without lodging.
Bis headquarters are at Mllwaukle and
the boarding and lodging houses do not
love him a little bit They are so impolite
to him as to call him a "scab'! and they
give him to understand that his money is
not good enough to purchase the accom
modations which the average- mortal
craves after the faithful performance of
a day's labor.
Recently a crowd of boys" and men, not
strikers, met him at SeUwood and called
him a scab. : It is said that he drew a
pistol and threatened to shoot anyone
who repeated the detested word. -He
then ran with his car to Mllwaukle and
the crowd .followed. Meeting him there
It Is said that the crowd would have done
him bodily injury had not Mr. Rinkle,'

It Is reported that the company is mak
ing preparations to import men here
from California and the East, but this
does not seem to be worrying the strik
ers. In: the recent strike at Ban' Fran
cisco, men could not be 'obtained at any
price' to take the place of the strikers,
and It la believed that such an effort here
will also prove a failure.
It Is also argued by the strikers that
Mllwaukle being the headquarters of the
company the new men would be com
pelled to locate there. Then the citizens
of Mllwaukle would again take, a firm
stand and refuse to give them food and
shelter. So this plan will not work they
argue. .

pling rills, the birds begin to sing. ..Th
lambs ar skipping o'er th mead, th
crocuses appear, the congressmen , send
out their seeds, to shew that spring Is
here. Th crow ts nesting in th wood,

sows his crop of oats, the calf bawl for,
the mother cow, - th candidate hunts
