william @. Mcdowell. III. D., proposes con
troller of commerce, who shall have the same
jurisdiction over corporations as, the controller
Of the currency has over national banks. J, He
wants law that no corporation shall be al

the stock before such certificate is issued In
this manner would he control the trusts.
Years age says Mr.. Mcdowell. II made a
very thorough investigation with Governor TIL
den to know the results of the practical work
upon the distribution of national bank stock. and
we found two very important optcomes of this
method of governmental supervision Of financial
corporations & The first was that a majority of
all national bank stock was held by owners of
Sc 900 or less 81 stock. The second was that
national bank stock was an Investment. security

Interest Increases in Revival.

The union revival meetings during
the past week have attracted large
audiences and much interest has de-
veloped in them. Several! CONVEX
sions have already been reported and
there is hope that there will be many
more during the progress of the meet
ings. The evening meetings at the
Congregational church during the
week as we'll as the services on Sunday
at the Grand opera house have been
largely attended, and DR.. Bulgin is
everywhere received with the highest
esteem as man who is thoroughly
imbued with his work, pleasing in
his manner and convincing in his ar
gument. His wholesouled, kindly
disposition is gaining friends for him
and his work every day. We have as
yet failed to hear single criticism
from persons either within or out OF
the church membership of the city.
The services will continue throughout
the week and Sunday.

Coal Strike Commission Reports.

The report of the coal strike COM
mission appointed by President Rose
welt was made public last week, and
is considered victory for the miners.
In brief, the commission recommends
general increase of wages amounting
in most instances.to 10 per cent; some
decrease of time; settlement of all
disputes by arbitration fixes mini
mum wage and sliding scale provides
against the discrimination of persons
by either mine owners or miners on
account of membership or nom mem
bership in labor union, and provides
that the awards to be made shall con-
tinue in force until March 81, 1906.
The commission discussed to some ex-
tent the matter of recognition or non
recognition of the miners union, but
declined to make an award on this
matter. The commission also makes
a number of recommendations, which
may be summarized as follows:
Discontinuance of the system of en-
ployiDg local and iron police" be-
cause this force is believed to have an
irritating effect. A stricter enforce
ment of the laws in relation to the
employment of children. That the
state and federal government should
provide machinery for making CON-
pulsory the investigating of difficult
ties. similar to the Investigation
which this commission has made
The commission, however, takes de-
cided position against compulsory
arbitration.

Schanck Buys Out Cratsenberg.

Perhaps the most important bust
ness deal in the recent history of the
town of Burr Oak was closed yester-
day morning when F. G. Schanck, the
popular stage driver and hotel man,
concluded the purchase of the general
merchandise stock, building and lots
of A. j. Cratsenberg, the veteran
Burr Oak merchant, including his re-
sidence property and eleven acres of
ground. The consideration was 10, 600,
and possession will be given next
Monday. In this deal Mr.. Schanck,
who lately sold his hotel and stage
business to t. E. Roberts, remains in
Burr Oak, and gets control of one of
the very best village stores we have
seen. He is an enterprising and pro-
gressive man, and is fortunate in
having connected with him his son,
who together with his father will
conduct the business. Mr.. Cratsen-
berg has been a prominent figure in
Burr Oak so long that his smiling
countenance and congenial nature will
be missed from the store, but his many
friends will be glad to know that he
will retire from business and take a
needed rest during the declining years
Of his life. Mr.. Frank Cratsenberg
will remain with Mr.. Schanck for a
time at least.
