INTERESTS OF LABOR
Should Be Represented in Politics
Says Prof. Innis.

Pro Prof. George S. Innis led the discussion,
The Nottingham in Politics." at the
regular meeting of the Mems cub at
the Bethel boat last night
Prof. 1nnis spoke at some length upon
the subject, and urged the Workingman
70 take a more active general interest
q politics. He said that they represent
ed the largest number of votes Of any
class and that they should have more
affairs.
The difference between municipal and
national politics was dwelt upon at some
length by the speaker, who said that
the ,workingmen, should endeavor to get
candidates of their own into the field
for municipal Offices
Following his remarks there was a gen.
eral discussion of the question, many
taking part in it. The practice Of
awarding contracts for city work to con-
tractors who import men to do the work
was severely condemned, the meeting
holding that this work should be done
by local Workmen.
At the close of the meeting, which
was presided over by Rev. D. Morgan
and attended by about thirty members.
light refreshments were served.

WOULD STAND ALONE
NATIONAL GUARD OFFICERS EN-
PRESS OPINION ON NEW ARMORY
Some of the Members Think $780,
900 Is Needed to Carry the
Scheme to Successful
Completion.

whatever we may be able to secure
in the way of a new armOry, we should
insist that it must be strictly an armory
and at the disposal of the national guard
at all times. and to that end we should
not entertain any proposal to enter into
a combination with any other interests in
this armory project" Such were the
sentiments expressed by Gen. w. B. Bend
and heartily echoed by numerous others
at the meeting of national guard officers
held at the armory last evening to con-
slider the recently developed project to
build a new armory building.
The meeting, which was to a certain ex-
tent informal in it's character, comprised
the field staff and company officers OF
the guard who live in this city and was
called for advisory discussion of the
plans thus far formulated. Gen. Bend, as
the ranking officer, was called upon to
preside, and Maj. George c.. Lambert
acted as secretary.
1t was briefly explained that a project
had been roughly outlined to ask the city
council to issue bonds under authority
Of the recent amendment to the military
code for the purpose of erecting a new
armory for this city The amount men,
TONED as the estimated cost of such a
building as would be needed was 6, Geo.
but this some of the officers thought
would not be found sufficient and there
was a strong sentiment particularly
among the younger men in favor of ask
ing for bond issue of 100000 on the
start. That question was discussed at
some length with particular reference to
the probable feeling among the members
Of the city council and at length it was
decided to appoint a committee Of five
from among the officers to act with a
committee of the same number from the
armory association in ascertaining the
disposition among members of the coun-
Gil and arousing general interest in the
new armory project
1t was suggested that the indorsene nt
Of the Commercial club, Chamber of Com
merce and other organizations would be
OF material assistance and it was at this
jUncture that Gen. Bend expressed him
self as quoted above. Gen. Bend said that
1t might be possible that a combination
of the armory and auditorium wslld be
suggested, but in his opinion, based large
ly upon actual experience, any such plan
would be totally impracticable. He made
it plain that he. was not opposed to the
auditorium scheme and was in favor OF
an auditorium, but was also firm in the
belief that the armory should be simply
and solely an armory and devoted ex-
clusively to the purposes of the national
guard. II the armory were used for other
purposes it would frequently occur that
drills would be interfered with and that
would tend to disorganize the companies
and the guard.
The committee provided for as above
stated has not yet been appointed, but
will be announced within a day or two
Capt. Larson, of Battery A. who is pres
1dent of the armory association, will be
asked TO name similar committee from
that body.

JENKINS YET CHAMPION
WRESTLER HAS PLENTY OF WORK
In DEFEATING PARR.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, March 14-Tn an
effort to retrieve laurels lost in Buffalo,
Jim Parr and Tom jenkins again faced
each other tonight at Forest Street arm
DRY before 1000 enthusiastic spectators.
Jenkins again proved his superiority in
the wrestling game and put Parr to the
mat in the first and third falls in 81 and
10 minutes respectively, Parr taking the
second fall in 80 minutes. jenkins weigh
ed close to 200 pounds, Parr 10.
The little Englishman gave a fine ex-
hihition Of skill and made the heavier
Cleveland man work hard Parr was the
faster of the two, and was quite as ag-
gressive as Jenkins, who relied on his
heavier weight to wear Parr down. The
contest was announced to be for the
championship Of the world and a side
bet of 81 600, the purse offered by the
club also being 81 900.
Police Gazette rules prevailed, these
being considered more favorable to Parr.
There was not much betting, the odds
given on those made were 2 to 1 on jen-

NOT YET IDENTIFIED
BODY OF WOMAN KILLED BY EN-
CINE STILL AT MORGUE.

Mystery still enshouds the identity of
the woman found dead on the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul tracks Thursday
morning. Although a great many people
remains, yet no one has been able to
identify the unfortunate girl.
1t is quite evident that she resided in
the city or vicinity, as some of her cloth
ing was purchased here. If such is the
case it seems strange that no one has
missed her and called at the morgue. to
find her. The police are Of the opinion
and had quit her place just prior to the
accident The amount of money in her
purse is an evidence that she had just
been paid. Her friends think she is stlll
working at her former place, and her for
mer employer thinks she has gone to her
friends. If such is the case she may be
identified today.
