From a Wanderer.

DEAR REGISTER:-It has been near
three months since l left lola and |
have not seen copy of the REGISTER
since coming here, so | am getting
hungry for the news from my old
home.
We enjoy our new home very much,
the all-around privileges here being
excellent. A miles drive on Sunday
morning takes us to one of the best
churches in the State. Ottawa is a
city of beautiful homes and numerous
churches. This may account for the
reputation it has OF being an excep-
tionally moral town.
Mrs. Nation, of recent renown,
visited here last Friday and Satur-
day. She came unannounced, but was
given "a reception, and in about four
hours after her arrival here the First
Baptist church was crowded to hear
her speak. The college faculty also
invited her to make an address in the
chapel on Saturday morning, which
she did. She had no occasion for
smashing" here and she was full of
praise for Ottawa because of the
courteous reception she was given by
the city authorities and a host of
friends. She claimed that she could
feel the moral atmosphere prevailing
here when she came into the place.
Last week from Tuesday until Sat
urday the Poultry and Pet Associa-
tion of Franklin county gave its sixth
annual exhibit. There were about
700 entries, poultry, Belgian hares,
canary birds, pigeons and English
ferrets. There were about 100 Bel
gian hares. Mr.. John Dudley, the
official scorer of Hartford, was pres
ent and scored all poultry on exhibit
Most all varieties were exceptionally
large and fine. We never saw it's
equal before. 1t was said to be ''the
biggest best and most successful show
ever given in the county"
OF course our thoughts and sympa-
thies went to England last week in the
loss of her honored Queen. We were
wondering what her name would have
been had she not been the Queen. We
accidentally picked up an old Inter-
Ocean and found; "The surname of
the House of Hanover of which Queen
Victoria was born, was Guelp that
the house of SaXe-Coburg of which
her husband belonged Wettin.''
Sincerely the REGIsTER's friend,
Mrs. S. b. BLOOD.

RAILWAY WORK TO BEGIN.
Franchise Granted Across Country,
Lola Bonus of $4,000 Raised and the
Surveyor Ready to Start Out.

Everythingis moving along smoothly
and beautifully in the matter of the
proposed street railway to connect
lola and LaHarpe. The city some
time ago granted franchise to Mr.. j.
V. Crouch and last Saturday the
county commissioners granted fran
chise across country from east lola
along the public highways as far as
necessary, through Gas City and
through Lanyonville to LaHarpe.
Mr.. Couch's surveyor is here ready
to begin work and in a short time the
route of the line will be decided upon
and then there will remain to learn
how much of the right-of-way can be
secured from people owning farms be-
tween lola and LaHarpe. If right of
way can be secured reasonably from
them the road will notfollow the wagon
road after leaving the Rock Creek
bridge, which would be desirable be-
cause there are few city-bred horses in
this county and there would be trouble
for some time caused by teams fright
ening at the cars.
The franchise as granted by the
commissioners gives the right to use
the south half of the road from East
street to the Rock Creek bridge, and
no farther. Land will be secured from
abutting property for the right-of. way.
The track is to be along the south side
of this street, fifteen feet being given
and the poles to be south of the track.
The rails are to be as nearly as posi-
BILE on level with the roads so as TO
permit easy crossing, land where the
track crosses roads it shall be as
nearly as possible on the same grade
with the road.
With the franchises all secured there
remains but the securing of a right-of-
way, the payment of the bonuses
agreed upon and the construction of
the line. The business men of lola,
that is bunch of them, have gone
down in their pockets and raised the
So, 900 asked for to help get the road
under way. The city of LaHarpe has
also been asked for $1,000 and it seems
probable that this sum will be quickly
and cheerfully donated, as otherwise
Mr.. Crouch might run. out OF money
and terminate his line before he
reached LaHarpe.
And so things are shaping them
selves nicely for the completion of the
long.talked-of street railway, and be-
fore the leaves have begun falling next
fall the cars seem destined to be run
ming.

Bond Election for School House.

The city school board met again
Friday and completed the plans for
the new ward school building to ac-
commodate the overflow of the present
school rooms. The new building will
be located on lots. 4, 5, 6, I, 8, 8, in
block 1l9, which is now the north half
of the block where w. l.. Allisson' s
now stands. Walnut street runs east
of the block and Vine north of it, and
the new building will really be third
ward building.
The board decided to call an election
the last week in February at which
time bond proposition for 500, 900
will be submitted for the purchase of
the site and the construction of an
eight room building. The new room
is needed badly right now and will be
much more necessary by next year.
The boards reason for looking after
the matter now isIto.have the building
completed by the time school opens
next fall and not meet withlthe annoy
ing delays of the past.
There seems little doubt that lola
will stand by her schools now as in
he past and vote to provide accom-
modations for the children.

Mrs. Nation Recognized.

The FIT. Scott Tribune says that Mr..
Myers, the representative of the New
York Plate Glass Company which in
sures plate glass, has received the fol-
lowing letter from his company:
"In view of the continued smash
ing of glass by Mrs. Nation and other
members of the w. G. 7. U. in Kansas
the New York Office requires that you
at once make an endorsement as noted
below in this letter, on every policy of
the New York Plate Glass Co. that is
in force on any saloon, joint or drug
store in your town.
The endorsement which the company
requires on the policies is as follows
ut is hereby agreed and understood
that this company will not be liable
for any loss or damage under this pol
icy occasioned by or in consequence
of the smashing or breaking of glass
by Mrs. Carrie Nation or any member
of the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, or any other person or persons
where such act is intentionally done
for the purpose of destroying and pre-
venting the sale of liquors, beers or
other beverages"
This is interesting as it has been
claimed all the time that the way Mrs.
Nation would finally get into trouble
and be put out of business would be by
the insurance companies arresting her
for malicious destruction of property.

Word came from Topeka that
Will Lemasters, the Santa Fe brake

him at the train. Will Lemasters
formerly made his home for three
years with his uncle in Carlyle town
ship and taught school one year there.
He afterwards came to lola and began
railroading working here as bag
gageman. He has beensrunning out

the trainmen. His parents live in In

Will Operate the Planning Mill.

a lease has been signed up whereby
Clarence =. Smith, Will Irwin and r.
E. Kelley take charge of the planning
mill of the lola Manufacturing Com
pany's plant on the 10th of February.
Mr.. Chapman who recently bought the
plant at public sale, wanted it solely
for the foundry department, but took
the entire plant. The men mentioned
above are all experinced workmen and
have been employed in the planning de-
partment. Their lease is good for a
year and they have orders right now
to start off with and propose by Civ
ing the good service which the plant
is capable of to win and increase the
local patronage. The mill ought to
pay. There is demand for .sashes,
d oors, desks and Especial patterns of
wood that should keep the mill busy
and the machinery is there, the skilled
workmen are there and there should
be plenty of business. 1t might be
well for lola people to stand by them
and patronize home industry and get
the thing going. In time it may be
one of the big ones.

mothers influence. Some time since |
remember reading an article entitled
"The Increase of Crime" from ,phy-
sician's standpoint.
He argued that the cause of so much
murder and suicide was directly trace
able to the influence of the mother S
mind during the period we have allud-
ed to and of her attempts, in many
cases unsuccessful, to destroy either
her own life or that of the embryo, and
that If no such an attempt were made
the desire to destroy life were impart-
ed to the child.
We cannot doubt that this condition
exists to an alarming extent; and not
until the holy mission of motherhood
Is pro perly comprehended, and not
until her sacred rights are reverenced,
can this evil be lessened, and this can
only be accomplished by education
and enlightenment.
We shall continue this discussion at
our next meeting and shall more
minutely consider the mothers duty
in reference to the training of a
child.
Come, mothers, and let us reason to-
gether while we endeavor to discover
ways and means by which we may be
enabled to lessen the evils of this sin
full world. PRESIDENT.
The County Executive committee of
the w. G. r. U. met in lola Tuesday,

Court House Hone Revived.

The gentlemen who are looking after
the matter of the new court house have
hopes yet that the question may be re-
vived and submitted to the voters.
The senate bill seems to have been
tabled, but the house bill is still in the
hands of the committee and this bill
will be worked with. All the protests
sent to Topeka were protests against
the method of doing business and
urged that the matter should be sub
mitted to vote of the people. So the
House bill is to be amended to permit
the vodng on the question of whether
the commissioners may levy the tax
for long enough to raise $4,000. If
the people of the county by their bal
lots say yes" the commissioners
will so order, If they say "no" the
matter is ended. This is a happy way
out of difficult position, and in view
of the present activity in the interest
of the amended bill by men who spro-
tested against the original bill there
seems bright prospects that the bill
and the election will both carry The
commissioners and prominent workers
from several townships were seen in
town To-Day and all favor the amended
bill, so barring Misunderstanding,
the matter may yet be satisfactorily
ended.

The senate is beginning to dispose of
public business with a trif1e more ce-
lerity than it has shown during the
preceding six weeks OF the present ses-
sion. With but one month remaining
before the close of the session and a
dozen appropriation bills yet to be act
ed upon. as we'll as the river and har-
Dor improvement bill, the war tax re-
duction bill, the Grout oleomargarne

pretty steeply immersed in its public

The spokesman of one delegation is
thus quoted, he having been asked by
his representative If he was willing to
subsidize the Standard Oil company to
carry its oil across the ocean: IF that
company will build its ships in the
United States and place American Off
GERS, seamen and firemen on board of
them, instead Of building them in Eng
land and putting Germans and other
foreigners in command of them, with
foreigners making up the crews, as
they now do, of course shall be will
ing to see a reasonable subsidy paid to
the Standard Oil company-enough to
make good to that company the loss
It will bear from building ships at high
er cost at home and of running them at
higher cost under the American flag.
What we want is work, and 1t doeJn't
matter to us whether the Standard Oil
company or the United States or an
Individual furnishes it. We expect to
get wages enough for our work to
make 1t worth our while to expend our
energies at 1t, and we expect the peo-
pie who put their capital into ships will
receive a return upon their investment
as good as labor receives for its WORK" "

The house takes up and disposes OF
its work with its accustomed aplomb.
Nothing disturbs the serenity of its
progress. Bills come up, are fairly and
reasonably considered and are then
peremptorily brought to a vote. The
man who would attempt to filibuster in
the house would be like the late la
mented Billy Patterson. He wouldn't
know who struck him. In the senate
they do things quite differently, be-
cause there the filibuster is the king

LABOR GIVES SUPPORT TO THE

the senate.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-Delegates rep.
resenting labor organizations are
drifting into Washington for the pur-
pose of interviewing their senators and
representatives regarding their position
toward the shipping bill. 1t has been
pointed out to a few supposedly In
different or hostile congressman By
these labor delegations that the pas
sage of the shipping bill is desired by
the labor organizations Of the country,
not as a political or as a partisan, but
as an industrial, measure. These men
talk plainly and generally very tersely.
They are quoted as having said that of
course some one must make money out
of ships, IL there are any to be built in
this country, and that no sane man
with capital can be expected to invest
in them unless he is pretty sure Of get
ting his money back with fair interest.

Some little fear is being expressed by
the friends of Cuba that year is like
ly to elapse after the Cuban constitu-
ton has been adopted before 1t can re-
ceive such consideration at the hands
of congress as to result in releasing
that island from further American con-
troll. The constitution will be in shape
for submission TO the United States al
most Immediately after congress has
adjourned. and unless there is an extra
session called-and 1t is generally
agreed that the president will not call
an extra session-the Cuban constitu-
ton will go over until next winter, and
meanwhile the Cubans will be neither
independent nor contented. Cubans
ought to be able to console themselves
with the reflection that, however un-
fixed their present status may be, their
material condition is infinitely better
than it was before the United States
took the yoke of Spain from Off their
necks.
