A LABOR STRIKE.
The Longshoremen’s Union Notifies Steve
dores That Wages Must be Increased.
.A labor strike is impending in
Brunswick.
The longshoremen’s union, which
includes in its membership the great
majority of the dock laborers of this
city, has taken the initiative, and has
sent officially, to each Brunswick ste
vedore a written demand for a resto
ration of the former scale of wages.
The notices were issued at the last
meeting of the union, and signed by
Shepard Jackson, president of the or
ganization. They are courteously
worded, but have determination be
hind them.
Three days are allowed the steve
dores in which to respond to the de
mand. It is doubtful if any of the
stevedores will accede. In the event
that they do not, it is the announced
purpose of the longshoremen to m
augurate a genera! strike.—The result
will be great inconvenience and de
lay to Brunswick’s shipping business.
The licensed stevedores in this city
are Frank Burns,Curtis and Carreras,
Charles Halversen, Harry Tatnall,
Mose Sawyer and Hamilton Scarlett.
The general tone of the stevedores
is that they will make no concessions.
Some are reputed to be contempla
ting a reduction of wages instead of
an increase.
Tub Times understands that the
former scale of wages was reduced
about a year ago, and the longshore
men think that it should now be re
stored. If a strike results, it will
probably be inaugurated on Thursday
morning.
FOR BRUNSWICK.
A Splendid Chance for Our Publio Spirited
Citizens to Help Their Town.
Committees from Rathbone and
Oglethorpe lodges Knights of Pythias
are among the business men circulat
ing petitions headed as follows:
“We, the undersigned citizens of
Brunswick, in the event of the accep
tance of the invitation of the local
lodges, Knights of Pythias, by the
Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias of
Georgia to hold their next annual
session in the city of Brunswick in
May, 1898, subscribe and agree to pay
the amounts set opposite our names,
to be paid in the monthly installments
stated, for the entertainment of said
Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias while
visiting Bruuswiok at said time. No
payment will be expected in the event
of failure to accept the invitation by
the Grand Lodge of Georgia at its
meeting in Savannah next month.”'
The Times is informed that the
meeting of the Grand Lodge would
mean 2,000 visitors to Brunswick. All
visiting Knights pay their own neces
sary expenses. If each visitor spends
$lO, which is very likely, it will be
$20,000 brought to Brunswick. If our
merchants will subscribe even SI,OOO
it can be done.
We should like to look into the pleas
ant face of someone who has never
had any derangement of the digestive
organs. We see the drawn and un
happy faces of dyspeptics in every
walk of life. It is our national dis
ease, and nearly all complaints spring
from this source. Remove the stom
ach trouble and the work is done.
Dyspeptics and pale, thin people
are literally starving, because they
don’t digest their food. Consumption
never develops in people of robust and
normal digestion. Correct the wast
ing and loss of flesh and we cure the
disease. Do this with food.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial con
tains already digested food and
is a digester of food at the same
time. Its elfects are felt at once. Get
a pamphlet of your druggist and learn
about it.

In police court yesterday morning
Mayor Mason lined Mr. H, 11. Ray
mond, general southern agent of the
Mallory line, $lOO for violation of the
license ordinance. Col. TV. E. Kay,
who defended Mr. Raymond, contend
ed that the Yew York and Texas
Steamship company is engaged in in
terstate commerce and not being sub
ject to state or municipal taxation or
interference, neither is its salaried
agent. The case will be appealed to
the superior court and thence to the
supreme court if necessary.
