An EXECUTIVE WARNING.
tentton 20 the Ne~rssity %
Economy In Appropriations

Jefferson City. no. Feb. 2<.--Gov.
Doc.ery struck the keynote against
excessive appropriations, yesterday.
when he sent message to both
branches Of the general assembly,
calling attention to the necessity Of
economy In legislation.
That he deems the situation serious
enough to interest every friend Of
state institutions was evident from
the tone Of the message.
Already the regular appropriations
exceed the estimated revenues for the
coming year about 100000. Monday
afternoon the house passed bill to
establish n binding twine plant at the
pcnitentiary. II will take $4,000 ex-
ira to install and provide the capital
stock for this enterprise.
The 100000 excess In the regular
appropriations may be said 90 cover
the deficiencies from the last bi-en-
nial period. IL must be paid before
the clecmosynnry institutions receive
consideration. Likewise with the mp.
preparation for the binding twins
plant. These two appropriations alone
mount up TO the sum of s2.5.000.
So Il is evident TO every observer
In Jefferson City that the appropri-
atoms for the various institutions
must be scaled down. Every new en-
terprise In which the state embarks
takes just that much away from the

II. S. Bingham and II. W. Bailey mem
bers of the board of railroad commission
ers, held a hearing Tuesday afternoon at
the Van Ness house on the accident Whlch
occurred at the Rutland railroad yards In
this city on January 4. T.. c. Smith, the
other commissioner. was engaged at the
session of United States court and was
not present.
The State was represented by NJ. q.

j A. White. conductor of the passenger
and T. W. Bell. conductor OF the freight
and Engineer Geffrion of the freight, and
S. 5 Cotton. superintendent of the Rut-

The trains that colided We're both ex-
tras, the passenger returning from Rut-
land with those who had been to attend
the funerals of the railroad men killed in
the Shelburne accident, and the freight
coming from Alburgh. 1t appeared that
both trains were governed by rules which
provided that within tho yard limits they
should be run in the same manner as Il
shifting engine. 1t appeared that the en-
gineers could see each other at dis
lance of 800 feet where the ac-
cident occurred and that a collision would
not have taken place II both trains had
been running at proper speed. 1t APP
peared that the freight train stopped be

FACTORY WILL BE CLOSED
Demand OF Brush and Fiber Workers
for More Pay Refused,

AS result Of the refusal on tho part
of the T.. H. & A. C. Whiting company to
either grant a demand made by It's en-
ploycs for an increase OF % per cent In
their wages or submit the case to arbi-
tration, according to the state
ment of It's grievance committee, the
Brush and Fiber Workers Union went on
strike at . o'clock yesterday morning.
The employees of this company say that
tho average wages received by them is
$3.50 per week and that they cannot live
respectfully in the city of Burlington on
this amount. Their action has been en-
dorsed by the Central Labor Union and
they feel confident that they will get
what they demand.
The membership of the Burlington Brush
and Fiber Workers Union is 10 and the
action which they have taken has been
under consideration for about one month.
For the employers side OF tho question
Mr. y. G. Whiting says that the company
had i'll contemplation arrangements where
by the employees would get more pay within
a very short time. but that they could not
and would not agree to the demands by
the union. He claims that the average
amount received by the employees is some
thing over 81 per week and that about one
third of those employed are boys and
young unmarried men, the wages of the
men running from 81 to $l2 per week.
He thinks that the wages paid
by the company were as large as in
other similar factories and says that the
business cannot to run with profit If the
demands of the strikers are acccded to.
He said that the business of the season
is practically completed and there are few
er orders coming in now. The factory is
closed

my FRIEND FROM INDIA"

The ridiculous farce My Friend from
India" drew n fair-sized audience 10
the Howard Saturday evening. II there is
such a thing as "A funny night mare It is
depicted in this wildly improbable, though
laughable stage concet. 1t does not re-
quire large company but the ten roles
demand that they be placed in the hands
of capable people and the necessity, with
possibly two exceptions, was ably met.
There is something funny doing nearly
every minute but il was the general mix
up at the end OF the second act that
evoked the greatest enthusiasm OF the
evening In response to much applause
at this time the curtain was twice raised.
June Stone, the theosophic barber, my
friend from India" ana priest of the
yellow robe, was of course tho bright
particular star and naturally filled an
extraordinary part Miss Ada Gilman as
lilly the German servant girl OF the
Kansas City type, was also equal to an
exaggerated role and seldom appeared
without causing a merry smile some where
in the house Miss Mary Fairchild grace
.llly wore some becoming gowns and
Y1s pleasant to lopk at whenever on the
age. The scenic requirements OF the
zee are in no sense elaborate, one setting
serving for the three acts. As so many
people have seen and talked about My
Friend from India" and it has been so
much advertised, each succeeding presen-
tation of il must suffer in consequence.
TO this fact the seeming GOODNESS of
Saturday nights audience can best be
ascribed.
