A Monarch Malleable Range is tho ideal present. It is a practical

years to come. The MONARCH might be called n profitable present

possible. There is nothing that is more conductive to n 'happy home

Big Strike Threatened.
According to rnilroad officials and
labor leaders a strike is likely to occur
during the latter part of the present
month or early in July that will involve
from 125,000 to. 150,000 men, all mem
bers of the American Federation of
Labor. Should the strike occur it is ex
pected that it will be general on twenty-
two lines and will include all shopmen,
switchmen and the other organizations
affiliated with the Federation.
At the present time the varions organ
izations that comprise the federation are
taking a vote on whether or not the
strike shall be called. The vote will be
canvassctLby the headquarters officials
in the various districts, but the results
will not be made public. The findings
of tho officials will bo forwarded to St.
Louis, at which place the general meet
ing of federation officials is called for
Juno 30.
In voting on whether or not they will
strike, there is no wage grievance that
enters into consideration. It is asserted
that it is to compel recognition of the
affiliated organization of the labor crafts
and also to compel the Harriman of
ficials to bring about a settlement
of the shop strike on the Harriman
system of roads, that has now been on
for the last six months. It is also sail
by the labor leaders that a general
strike at this time would bring to a close
tho freight handlers' strike that is on
in Chicago. Tho freight handlers are
affiliated with the federation and it is
contended that a general strike of the
allied crafts would force recognition of
the freight handlers. Omaha Bee
