Everything II Going His Way in the
GubernatoriaI Contest.

A Nashville special says; A long
drawn-out discussion prevented the
house from reaching vote on the
senate joint resolution providing for a
postponoment of the joint session to
count the vote for governor, but a test
vote was taken which shows beyond
doubt shat the senate resolution will
be concurred in, and that the holdover
policy will prevail. Governor Turney
will retain the Office of governor while
the attempt is made to pass law pre-
scribing the method of procedure in
case of a contest for the goyernorship.
In event this legislation goes through
he will also hold Office pending the
investigation that will follow. There
is but little doubt that o resolution to
take a recess will prevail and the leg.
islature will not be in session during
the investigation.

Five Thousand Trolly Car Men Strike

Five Thousand Trolly Car Men Strike
in Brooklyn.
At O'Clock Monday morning all the
trolly cars in Brooklyn, N. Y, were
tied up, the employees refusing to take
out the cars. Over five thousand men
quit work. This includes the motor
men, conductors, electricians, switch
men and other employee at the va
rious power houses. All but one Of
the surface railroads, and that COM
paratively minor concern, are affected.
The mems grievances and demands
are thus stated: The state law pro-
vides that days work FOR street rail-
way companies shall consist of ten
hours, within twelve consecutive hours.
1t is alleged that the corporations have
required the men to work eleven hours,
and even, latterly, twelve hours, with
no longer interval than ten minutes for
lunch and even depriving them of that
brief time in most instances
The wage rate agreed upon q year
ago was So for the statutory days
work; the companies, it is alleged,
have made no allowance for overtime.
The men demand adherence to the law
regarding the hours in q days work or
1926 for a day of twelve hours.

Mrs. 'Beecher as an Author.

The first thing Mrs. Henry Ward
Beecher ever wrote for publication
was In 1859, when she was lying on q
sick bed, and to pass away the time
she wrote what afterward grew into
the story ''From Dawn to Daylight"
These were sketches of western life,
many of them drawn from her own
experience. The sheets of paper upon
which the story was written were
thrown into bureau drawer without
any thought on the part of the writer
Of ever making use of them, but one
day her daughter, young girl about
twelve years old, came across the man
Uscript and became so much interested
in the story that she begged her mother
to have it published. "And for that,
my first publication, I received $780,"
she added. Tlis was the beginning of
her literary labors, which have been
kept up more or less ever since.

Secretary of the United States Navy,
in the North American Review. This,
of course, has been taught, time and
time again, in lessons familiar to ALL
The most powerful factor in the down.
fall of Napoleon, one that operated all
the time from 1906 to 1914, was the
absolute control of the sea by his arch
enemy, England. He was shut off
from transportation by sea, compelled
to rely on land communications, and
there was no point in the circle of his
conquests from the easternmost shores
of Italy along the coasts of the Medi-
terranean to Gibraltar, and thence
around the Atlantic and the Channel
and the North Sea into the Baltic,
where the English could not assail
him. The genius of the great con-
queror, and the wonderful impulse the
revolution had given to his soldiery
made him master of continental
Europe, but he could not hold it.
Wherever upon the sea there was
strategic point in his conquered ter
ritory there were English fleets, En-
glish diplomacy, and English allies,
and these finally led first to the down
fall at Paris and then to Waterloo. A
more recent, possibly more forceful,
lesson is to be drawn from our own
Civil War. The Union fleets blockaded
the Confederacy and almost starved it
to death. They shut it in from re-
cruits and supplies and munitions of
war. They cut it in two by their
fleets on the Mississippi, and pene-
trated its vitals along the lines of
other navigable streams. They how
cred around it, as England lowered
around Napoleon and his satrapies,
and assailed it wherever it was weak
est. When the true history of the
conquest of the Confederecy is writ
ten it will undoubtedly appear that,
in proportion to numbers engaged and
expenses incurred, the navy of the
United States was far more efficient
factor in the final result than even the
field. Japan is illustrating the same
lesson. BY her command of the sea-
she outnumbered the Chinese at Ping
Yang, and by the battle off the Yalr
she seems now, at this writing, t
have acquired such further dominion
over the water as to justify her, in tn,
opinion Of her Emperor, in LANDING
troops on Chinese soil and undertak
ing an invasion.

The pension rolls probably reached
their maximum length in the fiscal
year ended June 80, 1894, observes
the New York Mail and Express. They
then contained the names of 969, 544
persons, which total was 1882 greater
than that of the previous June 80.
Tits interesting to know that at the
end of the fiscal year there were on
the rolls the names of nine widows
and three daughters of soldiers of the
Revolutionary War and of forty-fve
survivors of the War of 1912. The
number of pending claims has de-
creased more than 10000, while the
number added to the rolls was 80, 6s5
and the number dropped was 37,951.
The figures confirm the belief already
expressed that natural causes will
soon perceptibly reduce the number
of pensioners and that the maximum
has been reached.
