STONES MESSAGE
VERY INTERESTING
Strike Was Most Important
Event of It's Kind.
URGES PASSAGE OF A LAW.
A Compulsory Arbitration Law Should
Be Passed for the Settlement of Diff
ficulties Between Employer and EN-
Employee.

Harrisburg, Jan. 6.-The general as
sembly of Pennsylvania was opened
in biennial session today.
In view of the recent anthracite strike
the message of Governor Stone was
listened to with much interest. Most
of it is devoted to this subject. The
governor syas the strike was the most
important and far-reaching event of
It's kind that ever occurred in the
state, and that the expenses incurred
by the state in connection with the
disturbances caused by the strike was
S1,O00000 and more. The governor
urges the passage of law to prevent
future disturbances as follows:
In my judgment, compulsory ar
bitration law could and should be
passed for the settlement of the diff
culties between employer and en-
ployee. Such a law is entirely con-
stitutionsl, and feasible from the police
standpoint, looking upon the strikes
as injurious to the public, harmful to
society and destructive to life and
property. They are generally settled
after all harm has been done. Why
should they not be settled before the
harm is done and save large losses to
life and property? We should consid-
er strikes as dangerous to the public
good and while mindful Of the rights
of both employer and employee, ad-
just them from higher standpoint,
namely, for the good of society, pres
ervation of public peace and life and
property When a large strike is set
tied we delude ourselves with the
thought that no more will occur. We
should contemplate them as likely to
again occur with the same results as
IN the past Without criticising en-
ployers or employees, without blaming
either, we should so legislate as to
prevent the recurrence of these dis
tLrbances."
Referring to the insurance of chill
dren, he said:
Il heartily concur in the opinion of
the insurance commissioner that a
law should be passed limiting the
amount of insurance on children to a
burial benefit and fixing the age un-
der which they could not be accepted.
The governor says that some addi-
t1onal legislation should be passed for
the protection of children, who. he
says, are too young to work in the fac
tories, but are employed in coal
breakers, slate and stone quarries.
He says: " I heartily concur in the
opinion of the factory inspector that
it is inconsistent to prohibit a child
of II years of age from working in a
factory or merchantile establishment
and allow him to secure employment
In more dangerous and undesirable
places"
An appropriation of the Pennsylva,
MIA exhibit at the ST. Louis exposition
is recommended.

SMALLPOX RAGING
THROUGH VIRGINIA
Returning Volunteers From
Cuba Brought Disease.
DEATH NEARLY 100 PER CENT.


Widespread Throughout the State
and Has Never Been Wholly Erad.
icated.
Richmond, Va, Jan. 6.-Miss Rob-
bic Yeager, the pretty pupil nurse who
died at the city hospital in this city
on Saturday, was the sixth person to
die within the past few days of a
virulent form of smallpox which is
traced directly to volunteers return;
ing from Cuba.
Another nurse, Miss Carr, at the city
hospital, has the disease, and her con-
d1tiOn is considered critical.
About two years ago, when a great
Cuba, disease became widespread
throughout the state, and has never
been wholly eradicated
Local physicians in many instances
called it Cuban itch, but in every
case where a physicion of the state
board of health made a diagnosis he
pronounced it smallpox
People were cautioned that the dis
ease was liable at any time to take
on virulent form, and this probably
has been fulfilled
Recently a man named Stone was
taken in at the city hospital suffering
with another disease. He developed
smallpox. He died, and there have
been five other deaths.
The saddest of these was that of
Miss Yeager, a young and pretty pupil
nurse at the institution. She nursed
Stone, contracted the disease, died
and was buried in the potter's field.
None of her people, who live in Cul-
pepper county, knew that she was
sick until the announcement of her
death was made to them on Sunday.
In other parts of the state the dis
case has been as deadly, the deaths
being nearly 100 per cent.

Mr.. A. B. GIRARDEAU, Savannah Ga.
DEAR SIR:-Some years ago operated float

influences. [ employed over one hundred hands,
and the work was conducted as much in water
out of it. For this reason, in August and Septem
Der there was great loss of time and business on
account Of sickness among the workers.
My attention then called to Johnson's Chill
and Fever Tonic, and l determined to give the
medicine a trial. | procured It, and those who
were sick put this treatment, and those who
were feeling badly were at once given the Tonic.
In a short time every ofthe one hundred hands

on [ used nothing else but Johnsons Tonic and
never had another case of fever.

EXPELS
MORMON ELDERS
PRESENCE OF THE MISSIONARIES
FROM AMERICA NOT DESIRED.
CANNON WILL MOVE TO ZURICH

BERLIN, June 6.-Hugh j. Cannon
superintendent of the Mormon missions
in Germany; his wife, his secretary and
assistant secretary were ordered by the
police today to leave Prussian territory
within three weeks. Similar orders are
about to be served by the local au-
thorities on eighty-six other mission
aries in Prussia, under the decision of
the Government to expel them all. 1t
is quite unusual to serve the wives of
Mormon missionaries with a separate
notice. Mrs. Cannon has only been
here a month. No explanation was
given for the action taken except that
the presence of the Mormons was I'M
desired. Cannon will move his head
quarters to Zurich, Switzerland. He
has engaged house there, near the
one which Calvin took when he fled
from France. From Zurich the Mis-
sionaries will occasionally visit the
Mormon communities in Prussia, who
have 1900 members, in groups of fifteen
to twenty each. The German pastors
continue their services.
No protest has yet been made against
the expulsion of the Mormons Elder
Francis NJ. Lerman of Salt Lake City
now in London, the European superin-
tendent of the Mormon mission, has
been advised of the action of the au-
thorities and is waiting to see is Wash
ington will take up the cases of few
who we're IL treated. Through these
cases, it is hoped the Prussian Govern
ment may be led to reverse the eX-
pulsion decree and that several Ger
man states, notably Saxony, Hesse and
Wurtemburg, may also reconsider their
decree expelling Mormon missionaries.

THE HILO MAIL.

The complaint from HilO that the

destination, arises from the fact that
the San Francisco post Office did not
put the Island of Hawaii mail aboard
the Coptlc. The Coptic left San Fran
cisco June and the Ventura June 4,
But for some reason, mail for the big
island was not put aboard either yes
sci, The postal authorities here held
the Kinau and the Mauna Loa both
until it was absolutely certain that the
Hawaii mail was not aboard the Coptic
Why it was not put aboard the postal
authorities here have not been notified.
