Local Secretaries Discuss Factory
Problems in Chicago.
Miss Neva NJ. Chappelle, secretary Of the
North Branch Y. w. c. A., returned yester-
day from Chicago, where she attended a
four days conference of extension secretaries.
whose work lies among the employees Of fac
tories. Miss Helen T. Barnes, extension
secretary of the American committee, directed
the conference and secretaries were present
from Detroit, Des Moines, Milwaukee, Ra-
cine and Cleveland. Of these associations,
only one besides Minneapolis has a special
branch for the factory employees; this IS in
Detroit. In the other cities the secretaries
work among the employees at their work in
the factories, interesting them in classes and
aiding them in lettering their condition.
The work of the conference was very prac-
teal, being discussions of questions which
have arisen in the evolution Of the work and
have been sent in by the secretaries. Every
point in extension work was gone over care
fully and the discussion will form the basis
for the formulation of an extension policy by
the American committee. An important feat
ure of the discussion was the consideration
of the attitude Of the secretaries towards labor
DrOblemS.

SEEMS EASY TO HIM SALE OF THREE T.
Gives Vanderbilts Strong Hold on
Transcontinental Traffic.
GOOD THING FOR NV. AND N. P.
Westbound and EastbOund Traffic
Will Be Carried South
of Chicago.

Special to The Journal.
Clinton, Iowa, Jan. 2.-The transfer of
the Indiana, Illinois & Iowa road to the
Vanderbilt interests, greatly changes the
railway situation in this section. The
purchase Of the controlling interest in
the "Three I" road is of much more i'm
portance than would appear on the face
Of the deal. From a Vanderbilt stand
point, the purchase is an important one,
as it will relieve the Vanderbilt roads
from another competitor between Chicago
and Detroit and Toledo.
The Indiana. Illinois & Iowa road now
runs from Clinton to st. Joseph Mich.
Arrangements had bene completed, how
ever, to extend it from the latter point to
Toledo and Detroit, and 1t was to head off
this latter enterprise that the Vanderbilt
purchased the property. The Three road,
will also prove frst-rate feeder for
their Lake Shore system. The Three
has, up to the present time, been operated
as an outer belt line, over which an ex-
change Of through traffic has been made
between the eastern and western roads
without taking it into Chicago BY their
| ownership of this belt line, the Wander
bilts will possibly be able to secure a
much larger share of this through trafhc
than heretofore.
By this new arrangement, the through
freight and passenger business from the
east Will De turned over ny tue VdHuel
bilt eastern roads to the Three I road at
South Bend, Ind, and will pass south OF
| Chicago through streator, thence to Men
dota, ILL.,, from which place it will come tC
Clinton over a track owned jointly by the
| Three I and Burlington companies. This
will mean a tremendous increase in freight
and passenger traffic for the Northwest
ern and Union Pacific companies, also
| largely owned by the Vanderbilts. The
same route will be taken for east-bound
traffic BY this arrangement the through
| business will avoid the many delays IL
Chicagoj Much more business will also
! be turned over to the North Western com
pany, as heretofore this traffic has largely
| been cut up by the other western roads.
Plans for a double track bridge mere
| have all heen made.

OF all our anniversary days and
national holidays, none are more
timely than Thanksgiving. The
human mind is so prone TO forget the
blessings Of life, to look on the dark
side rather than on the bright, that
Thanksgiving day comes to many as a
greatly needed reminder and reproof
In the United States OF America there
are very few indeed who have not
more reason to rejoice than to COM
plain and in this country even the
most unfortunate within its borders
may take comfort in the thought
that they live in n land Of enlighten-
ment, where kindness and brotherly
feeling predominate. While instances
of cruelty, greed and oppression are
not uncommon, the spirit of the people
rs whole is in direct opposition to
these instances Suffering commands
sympathy and relief and no people are
reader than ours TO respond TO a plea
for assistance by their more un-
fortunate brethren. Our government
though imperfect as human govern.
ments always have been and probably
always will be, is the best of which
we have any knowledge. We are more
favored than any other nation on earth
and should remember this with ap-
preciation.

Great men often do not appear in
their true proportions on too close
light. Many of the worlds greatest
men were not appreciated during their
life time it required the distance of
years to make apparent the true pro-
portions Of themselves and their work.
No man was more maligned during
his life than Abraham Lincoln and no
man is now held in greater or more
universal esteem. On the other hand,
many who are carried high OH the
wave of popularity and seem for the
moment greater than Caesar are drop
ped into everlasting oblivion before
their career is half finished. But
among the men of today ID is our
opinion that President Theodore
Roosevelt is making mark that will
stamp him through years to come as
one of the truly great men Of his age
and that II the nation gives him the
necessary measure of opportunity, the
vigorous, progressive and improving
spirit of his administration will be
felt for many years to come.
