well established fact that ''robbing''
pillars is the most dangerous work in
mine and miners engaged in it should
receive higher wages than at other
classes of mining.
In one batch of witnesses called
to tell of conditions at the Pardee
mines was II boy who said he lost a
leg in the mines. received nothing for
its loss, but instead when he returned
to work the company took off his
wages his fathers debt.
The miners announced that they eX-
pected to close their case on Saturday
and thus gave notice to the other side
to be ready to proceed with their tes-
timony. In reply the companies attor-
neys announced that they may have
to ask for a short recess in order to
properly prepare their case. Judge
Gray, for the commission, in reply said
he hoped there would be no inter-
ruption in tie proceedings and that
the companies will be able to proceed
as soon as the miners have concluded
their case

CoNTRIBUToRY NEGLIGENCE
Probably Prevented the Widow of the
Man from Mulching the Rail-
way Company.

Indianapolis, Dec. 12.-The suit of
Theresa Herman against the Big -Four
Railroad company for $4,000 DANA ges
for the death of her husband, VaIen-
tine Herman, has been dismissed by
Judge Leathers. Herman lived in the
northeast end of town. He was lead
ing his COW home a year ago by
rope, one enG of which he had tied
around his body.
He and the COW were on opposite
sides of the track, with the rope taut

jerked under the wheels, and died
without regaining consciousness. Part
of the severed rope was found tied
about his BODY and the other part
fastened to the cow. The only witness
to the accident was the engineer. On
the ground of contributory negligence,
Judge Leathers dismissed the case.

VIEWS OF EDITOR MoRss
Status of the Monroe Doctrine Viewed
by an Indiana Ex-Diplomat.

by an Indiana Diplomat.
Indianapolis, Dee. 12- Samuel E.
Morss, consul general at Paris in the
last administration of President Cleve-
land. was asked what he thought of
the diplomatic and political difficulties
that now confront the United States
in Venezuela, and what effect the oc-
cupatiOn of Venezuelan territory by
England and Germany would have on
the Monroe doctrine. MY opinion"
said MorSS.. ''is that the United States
very materially weaneked it's position
on the Monroe doctrine by its enter
prises in the eastern hemisphere. Our
course in China, however, was con-
servative in comparison with our
course in the Philippines.
"Our government showed much wis
dom in China. 1t avoided anything
looking to the acquisition of territory
or the establishing of any jurisdiction
there. 1t seemed to me very clear that
the precedent we have established in
the east would return to plague us
when the occasion arose. Perhaps
there has arisen cause for a vigorous
assertion of the maintenance of our
traditional opposition to European en-
croahments in the Americas.
''Now there were two sections of
that Monroe doctrine, one being
cOrollary of the other. We were to
absolutely abstain from interference or
participation in political affairs of the
Old World. We were to resist. if
necessary, the acquisition of any addi-
tional foothold by European powers in
the New World. We have repudiated
the doctrine which would keep the
American states out of the Old World
TINS certainly has very greatly weak
ened the strength of our contention
that European powers must not in
crease their territorial possession in
the New World.
Il think the situation is grave.
If the United States gives
no assurances to bring about n with
drawal from the Old World and con-
tinues to assert and maintain the Mon
roe doctrine in the New World such
course is likely to bring about the
united opposition of Europe.
1t seems to me more than probable
that the statesmen of Europe will seize
the opportunity here presented -
should we attempt to enforce the Mon
roe dOctrine-tO form a coalition of
all the great powers against the Unit
ed States. There is no need to at
tempt to conceal the fact that the feel
ing in Europe against the commercial
aggression of the United States is very
intense"

FATE OF THE MAN WHO FELL
When Whisky Made Him Unreliable He
Was Promptly "Fired"

| Was Promptly "Fired"
When Il man who cNcelled spent
most of his time in barroOms. and,
through the use of intoXicants, be-
came an unreliable workman, he was
promptly discharged. but the loss WAS
| felt by the company. Besides, men en-
ployed in other branches of the rail
road service might, through drunken
ness, cause the company untold trou-
BILE 1t was through realization of
| these facts that the Lake Shore de-
| cided to aid in the dry" movement
| to the extent of riSking S1.000,O00 in
| added improvements to the works.
With liquor barred from CollinwOOd
the. company believes that its employees
in that vicinity will become better
workmen and more faithful to their
employers.
The campaign resolved itself into Il
Veritable war of bulletins. charges and
counterchargeS being made through
the medium of dodgers" Recently one
saloonkeeper, believing in the ultimate
defeat of the liquor interests. proposed
that all the saloons excepting few
good ones be driven out and that
the rest of them be allowed to remain.
1t is needless to say that he mentioned
his liquor emporium among the good
ones" Rousing meetings were held
by the "dryS." Prominent men from
Cleveland attendeda and made speeches
condemning the saloons in no uncer-
tain terms.
The ''wetS" argue that with the viii
lage dry large amount in taxes
will be lost to the community. They
also claim that the railroad men are
made better workmen by the beer they
drink after work They acknowledge
that there are too many saloons, but
say that there should be no objection
to n few thirSt-quenching establish
ments as long as they are operated in
quiet manner.
Several manufacturing concerns in
the villa ge followed the example of the
Lake Shore. and promised the leaders
in the "dry" movement that in the
event of their victory the village shall
receive benefits of material nature
through them. The Lake Shore did not
make any open announcement of its
intention to eXpend small fortune as
a monument to the temperance move
ment, but the information was con-
veyed to Superintendent Hare and 9th
ers in a quiet, matter-offact way.
When the votes were counted last
