A Suggestion
for Farm Hands
Washington. May 5.—"Iusp5ve«l by
the wonderful success of railroad
workers in promoting their interests
through organization, farm hands
might form a union." suggests the
Republican Publicity Association in
a statement issued todav through the
President of the organization, Hon
Jonathan Rottrne. Jr. "Anion; oth
er principles which might be adopt
ed by the A. A. A. A.—Amalgamat
ed Association of Agricultural \s
sistauts—-are the following:
"1. A basic eight-hour day.
"L\ Time and a half for ovei-tinie.
"3. Double pay for Sunday work
or work on holidays
"•!. Only members of the A. A. .V .■>.
in good standing shall In employ
ed.
| "5. Kmployera shall deduct dues
from wages and pay the sum* to
the local branch of the A. A. A. A.
The work of an agricultural
Assistant shall be limited stri- tly
to ordinary care of crops, livestock
etc.
"7. For any work other than that
of ordinary care to crops and live
stock. an Agricultural Assistant
shall be paid the compensation
that would be due a specialist.
For instance: for repairing a
pump, an A. A. shall be paid the
wages of a plumber: for giving
medicine to an animal, lie shall
be paid the compensation of a
veterinary: for u.ending machin
ery. he shall be paid the compen
sation of a blacksmith.
"S. In no case shall an Agricultur
al Assistant be permitted to per
form work other than ordinary
care of crops and livestock if a
specialist can be secured, and, if
work be so performed, the A. A.
shall be entitled to receive not
only the compensation of a special
ist but also the cost the farm
owner would be required to bear
j in securing the aid of a special
| ist if one were available.
| "!*. Breakfast shall not be served
more than :io minutes before the
beginning of the eight-hour work
day. and the Agricultural Assist
ant shall not be called earlier than
15 minutes before time for break
fast. Violation of this rule shall
entitle the A. A. to double pay for
the period of time he shall have
been constructively on duty.
"10. Each Agricultural Assistant
shall be attended by a helper
whose duties shall be subject ex
clusively to the determination of
the A. A.
"11. Controversies over the manner
in which work shall be performed
or involving interpretation of the
rules, shall be referred to the
I walking delegate of the A. A. A.
A., whose decision shall be filial,
pending which decision, the farm
owner shall recognize the conten
tion of the Agricultural Assist
ant."

Governor Voted
More Salary
The Territorial House of Repre
sentatives in Committee of the
Whole this morning voted unani
mously to provide a salary for the
Governor of the Territory of ?2,000
, per annum as compensation for his
I services on various boards, commis
I sions and in other ways. This is in
addition to his salary as a Federal
official. Tliis action was taken while
j the Ken era 1 appropriation bill was
under consideration in its second
reading.
| The action of the House follows
the recommendation made by Gov.
Thomas Riggs in his biennial mes
sage to the Legislature and in the
tentative budget which he later sub
mitted to the House. Several mem
bers advocated the salary during the
discussion.
The Ilouse took up the general
appropriation bill section by section
early in the morning meeting and
will probably conclude its consid
eration this afternoon. ltoth Chief
Clerks in the offices of Territorial
Secretary and Territorial Treasurer
were given advanced monthly sal
jaries to approximately $220 per
i month, as compared to previous sal
aries of $200 per month.

Considorat ion Delayed.
Further consideration of the ap

the House this afternoon by the re

up its study of the measure.

Retiring From
Wrangell Field
P. C. McCormack lias retired from
the well known Sr. Michael Trading
Company, at Wrangell, and the com- -
pany lias changed ownership accord
ing to the Wrangell Sentinell re-1
ceived in the mail Saturday night on
the Jefferson. The following inter-1
esting particulars of the deal, clipped
from the Sentinel, will be read with
much interest by Alaskans:
"A business deal for which nego
tiations have been ponding for some
time and which is of great interest
to the community was closed this
week by the sale of the store of the
St. Michael Trading Company to two
well known young men of Wrangell.
Ernest and Leonard Campbell. While
the transaction was not entirely com
pleted. Mr. McCormack retired from
the business at the end of last week,
and the rumors of the sale, which
have been persistent for several
months were confirmed yesterday.
"In point of continuous ownership
the St. Michael Trading Company
store is one of the oldest here, Mr.
McCormack having been one of the
four men who established the store
in 1S98. The others were Messrs
Montague and McCue of Cellinghain
and J. W. Stedman. Up to going into
business here, Mr. McCormack was
a bridge builder and contractor but
was persuaded by friends to enter
the mercantile field with them and
eventually became sole owner of the
establishment, Mr. Stedman soiling
out his interests and going into busi
ness elsewhere, and the other two
selling out to Mr. McCormack in
1910.
"Mr. McCormack will remain ii>
Wrangell for the present and expects
to busy himself during the summer
months with gardening and little
improvements around his home.
"The new owners have resided in
Wrangell since 1S99 and are young
men of excellent character who have
the respect of the entire community.
Both brothers have had consider
able mercantile experience and their
friends wish them success in their
new venture. They have bought the
building as well as the stock and J
fixtures and will continue the busi
ness under the name of St. Michael I
Trading Company.
