The right of girl employees to} marry has long been a bone of contention betwecn workers and manufacturers. The strike’ came about when the owners of the Tokyo Muslin Company attempted to enforce to the letter their rule against romance, The custom of enforcing the anti-marriage rule has been in vogue for many years, the argu- ment of the employers being that mwost of the girl workers are too young to marry, and if they do so, their value to factory work Is greatly flopn ciated The girl employecs of the mus. lin company, besides their insis- tenee on dom of mll"Hl),l within th freedom of leaving the factory premises for rcereation after 11 p.m.; appolntment of special phy- siclans and surgeons for night shifts; adoption of a system of discharge allowances and. bonuscs for continuous service; better food at lower prices; free tickets for bath houses every day; speclal cooling facilities ~during the hot months; payment of half-day wages on natiohal holldays.

Smith Tells ofl Country and Pres- ent Operations Details of the Squaw Creek strike in the Yukon Territory were given today by Sumner S. Smith, mining man, who returned to Juneau on the steamer Alameda. “He made the trip faside from Whitehorse to Dazadeash Lake, thence to Squaw Creek and out to { Rainy Hollw, near Haines. The trip from Whitehorse to Champagne was made by automo- bile over 60 miles of good road, Mr. Smith said. From there he went to Dezadeash Lake and river where (he took a saddle horse to the scene of the strike. Squaw Creek is about 12 miles [ long, according to Mr. Smith, bor- dering between British Columbia and Yukon Territory. It is a steep and narrow creek, with many large boulders. The claims run 250 feet cross- wise of the narrow valley and are difficult to work economically be- cause of draining being dumped into adjoining claims. Takes Out $3,000 Paddy Duncan, original discov- erer, has taken out $3,000 from the present cut since opening up last fall, to July 15, according to ! Mr. Smith. Discovery and No. 3 Above are doing most of the actual mining. Each employs from four to five men. Many other claims are being prospected. Gold has actually been found the entire length of the creek, Mr. Smith said, but not in large paying quantities; however there is a prospect that a camp might be de- veloped. Difficulties in prospecting and mining xperienced because of the ¢ boulders which fill the creek. There are no supplies at Squaw Creek and everything necessary must be taken in by the pros. pectors and operators. Follows Wild Trail Returning south from Squaw | Creek, Mr. Smith went over the head of the creek, swinging south along the flanks of the mountains parallel to the old Dalton Trail He crossed Boundary Glacier, fol- {lowing Jarvis Creek down to Rainy Hollow, thence to Pleasant Camp, b fand from there a distance of 42 lles Ot Haines. “This rbute taken by Mr. Smith 8 the shortest from the coast but staked and there are no sject: Insurance There are two of three things we would like to get across to you.now, while the memory of the Cliff and Feldon Apart- mdht Hoflse fitea is fresh in your mind.
