 Manager Hummer of the Green For est Telephone Go. informs us that he now has 50 phones in use. The ex- change started nine months ago with twelve subscribers and a 25 drop board. This was thought to be more than ample for one year. MT. Hummer has in- creased the capacity of the board to 75 drops and it is possible that this will be about full before the end of the year.
 The town council has the question of a stock law under consideration again. This is quite perpleXing question and one that is hard to handle. TIE TRIB- uNE favors a stock law, but the prac- tical workings of it in town situ- ated like Green Forest has not been al together satisfactory in the past, and twice in the past eight years the same people who advocated the stock ordi- nance also advocatedfits repeal. Such law would require the town to have a salaried marshal all the time, and 1t is doubtful if one man could do the work. Under the present state law towns have the authority to impound country stock so that remedies .one of the defects III the formar ordinances relative to keeping all stock out of the town, yet we are of the opinion that the impound- ing of country stock would create quite a deal of prejudice against the town, notwithstanding the fact that it is mu- tually beneficial to both the town and country to have stock law, for it is a we'll known fact that the breecby stock of town give considerable annoyance to the farmers adjacent town. We trust the council will study every phase of the subject and ascertain if possible the wishes of the people on the question To say the least of it, it will be quite expensive to enforce tho law, and that should be considered.

there is no remedy. There is no sin as
grievous as "scabbing" in the ethical
code of these workers. Half dozen wO-
men, members of the Ladies' Aid society
of one of the churches. were talking of
nOn-union workers. when one of them
said. 81 could look at Scabs hanged" and
the others echoed her sentiment. To what
extent this feeling carries men was il
luStrated in LanSford. Sharpe, Il union
man. who was shot by a deputy had Il
funeral such as was never witnessed in
that town. All the union men from the
mining villages came to pay the last
tribute of respect to one whom they con-
sidered a martyr for the cause. The

procession was solemn and impressive.

| Francis I. Gowan. counsel for the
Lehish Valley company, called DR.. Rob
erts' attention to some palpably erron-
| eous passages in the transcript of his
evidence of the day before and had him
! make corrections, after which Major
Everett Warren, of this city. of coun-
sci for the Erie company, brought out
by cross-eXaminatiOn that in framing
Il report of a non-fatal accident the
mine inspector can, and usually does,
question the injured man; that the law
requires the inspector TO attend all in
quests in cases of mine Fatalities: tha t
the mine inspector is appointed on the
recommendation of a board of five ap-
pointed by the president judge. three
of which five are actual mine workers:
and that an Inspector is in no way
allied with the companies.
Major Warren secured an admission
from the witness that as rule Il miner
gets through his work before noon
time, and that Il large percentage of
mine accidents are attributable to the
anxiety of the miner to get out from
his work earlier than this hour. Major
Warren asked if fifty per cent would
not be a fair estimate. The witness
thought it was not as large as that.
General Counsel David Wilcox. of
the Delaware and Hudson company,
called DR.. Roberts attention to his tes-
timony of the day before, to the effect
that he found twenty-four boys, under
the legal age, working in the breakers

| or mines, of the Olyphant region. and
inquired if the witness had taken any
steps to remedy this evil. The doctor
replied that one clergyman who brought
prosecutions for this offense had the
costs put on him. The witness ad-
mtted he had not notified the employ
ers of his discoveries in this matter.
He said he attributed the working of
these young boys to the fact that their
parents were hard pressed for nancy
to pay off mortgages In many cases,
he said, the mine boys who are under
age are the sole support of widowed
mothers.
Further Cross
Mr. Wilcox, general counsel for the
Delaware and Hudson company. re-
sumed the cross examination of DR..
Roberts at the opening of the after
noon session.
Still further readings from the doc
tors book showed that as Il result OF
his Investigations he found that the
veins varied in every feature in the
