humor than they would otherwise Last night at at Murray money was spent gent quite quie freely and an there thee was a much money easier feeling than when they had ad no However the fact that three deputy sheriffs Harris Harris Cummock and Gold Goldman Goldman man remained in the town last night showed that the smelter management felt some uneasiness At the request of Manager Jones Tones and Superintendent Tucker the te deputies depute were sent down but they did not remain upon the grounds gound of the company I dont think that any trouble Is 16 I likely said Chief Deputy Montgomery but the deputies are to remain at Murray to preserve the peace at the request of Mr Jones Tones and Mr Tucker At the smelter there are working practically all the men that can be ac accommodated accommodated accommodated Only two furnaces are running toe tie other two which have been in operation being yet frozen up Even if an advance in wages wag is re refused refused refused fused there is little likelihood of a general walkout at the smelter A very large percentage of the workmen are Finns Finn and Swedes who speak little English and who are paying very little attention to the strike They did not attend the meeting which chose the committee of seven and it does not represent them them j U Still many men declare about Murray that the they will wi not work unless their wages are raised and many ranny have al already already already ready quit and anti left let the town Even if the wages are ae re advanced the smelter will wi not ot have a lull full ful force with which to operate four furnaces and without an increase the force will be smaller maler yet yet |
