strikers themselves give US some cause.
They have quit work and all we ask OF
them is that they do not interfere with
the operation of the company's shops.
If they do not care to work for Us, all
right; we can get along without them.
If they ever come back to work Tor US,
they win do so under the same condi-
tons which existed the day they walked
out Only about fifty of them are union
men, the rest being helpers and appren-
tees. If they ever 20 back to work,
the union men and the helpers viii be
treated just alike. No concessions viii
be made to either We do not care to
quarrel with the strikers, and will leave
them alone If they will leave us alone
Il don't think that the strike viii
amount to much not as much even as
plenty of boilermakers. Most of those
who viii take the strikers places in
the Topeka shops will be men from out
of town. Boilermakers are not hard to
find -

mate candidate for the United
States Senate was held Wednesday
of,last week, and Governor Frazier
was nominated ON the first ballot.
Hon. Robert l.. Taylor and Hon.
Benton McMillin were candidates,
but the general assembly was over
whelmSngly for the distinguished
Chattanooga statesman. Seeing
the futility of continuing the fight
in the face of the strong sentiment.
FOR Governor Frazier, the other
candidates withdrew.
Hon. John I. Cox, speakerof the
Senate, succeeds to the duties Of
governor. Speaker Cox has had.
sufficient Legislative experience to
qualify him for his high dutiesy
and we predict that he will disap-
point his critics and make a good
governor.
1t is intimated by his friends at
Nashville that Governor Frazier
wall not resign until next fall, or
atleast not until after the adjourn
ment of the general assembly.

A BILL has been introduced in
Che Legislature to require the use of
wi0etires On all farm vehicles, and
allowing only six months to owners
in which to make the change.
While we do not doubt that wide
tires are much the best, to make
the change in so short time would
entail an enormous expense on our
farmers than they are unable to-
bear. I'm our opinion the time
should be extended or the bill de-
feated Paris Post-Intelligencer.
