at the arsenal
The Sweat shop Term.
In the same connection Mr..
Herges took occasion to say
that the Tri-City Labor congress had
deferred action in approving the reso-
luton of the American Federation of
Labor condemning the arsenal as a
sweat shop. as ii was the desire to
ascertain the full Interpretation of the
federation's resolution. Mr.. Herges ex-
planned to the congressman that all
labor regarded the arsenal as an ideal
place to work, as far as architecture,
and the shop comforts were concerned
but that the system employed there
was just such as lead up to sweat shop
expressions. and this could only be
remedied through an act of congress

When one of the most reputable
druggists in Rock Island guarantees
that a medicine will effect cure or

that has made SO many cures of both
acute and chronic cases Of catarrh in
Rock Island and vicinity
Hyomei is not a pill. nor Is II

seen from the first treatment
Remember that If Hyomei does not

money. This is good time to cure
catarrh by this natural method and
prevent catarrhal colds that are 80
common at this season.

worse still, q heavy wagon gate
that always monopolizes the
whole of the walk. Ask your
physician about the result of the
first; the ladies' about the latter.
Ask the mayor if there is an
ordinance providing that all
gates should be hung so as to
swing inward. and if there is
any way of enforcing that
ordinance. If there is not such
an ordinance, there should be;
if there is one, it certainly ought
to be enforced.
Going the distance of one
block on one street there are to
be found twelve gates; ten swing
outward, and two go both ways.
The next block has thirteen
gates, all opening outward, and
some of them are open nearly all
the time, and the other time two
of them are fastened in such a
manner as to swing out over a
foot or two of the best part of
the side walk.

One Of the most attractive school
catalogues received this year is that
OF the Southwestern Industrial Insti-
tutQt tt sLAfaystte. This catalogue
contains the usual calendar of the
school year. lists Of faculty, trustees
and students, description Of courses of
study and other general information
usually given in school catalogues;
but In addition to all this the book is
p~rofusely illustrated with excellent
views Of the interior and exterior of
The school and its surroundings.
There are several fine views of Lafay-
cite that make the book of great in
terest eve aside from it's value as a
catalogue.
The Southwestern Industrial Insti-
tute in the few years since its estab-
lishment has grown to be one of the
most notable institutions Of its class
in the South. Practical, useful educa-
ton as distinct from mere academic
learning, il its mission. The higher
branches are taught, but only after
the student has received training in the
practical and useful course of study.
There is an excellent manual training
school, fitted with all the modern APP
pliances. . workshop where the ele-
ments of the useful trades are taught,
. commercial department for training
future business, q school of steno-
graphy, an art department and q
school Of t~elegraphy. Besides the
common branches, Latin and French
arc taught and instruction is given in
music and drawing. The. girls are
taught cooking and sewing and the
boys are taught to use their hands in
many ways.
The Industrial Institute under Presi-
dent E. Z. Stephens is doing q fne
educational work and it deserves the
patronage Of the people Of Southwest
Louisiana. A glance ct the roll Of
students shows about 300 enrolled
from the Southern Louisiana parishes,

AFFAIRS OF
PANAMA
RAILROAD

washington. Feb. 27.--The sub commit
tee os the house committee on inter
state and foreign commerce. which has
been inquiring into the affairs Of the
Panama Railway company, resumed its
work today. The members OF the COM
mittee have received complaints from
manufacturers and contractors that last
summer Vice President Drake OF the
railway company. acting as purchasing
agent of the Isthmisn canal commission.
bought great quantities Of construction
supplies without advertising for bids. and
also that some OF the supplies purchased
by him were charged to the account Of
the railroad company.
The supplies were bought without ad-
vertsement for bids on the supposition
that an emergency existed and that there
was not time TO follow the course pre-
scribed by the statute and the order of
President Roosevelt. made on May s. 1904
requiring all contracts for material to
be made after due advertisement.
Since then complaint has been made to
President Roosevelt that the specifca-
tions drawn by the Isthmian canal COM
mission have been 80 worded that only
one firm OF contractors could meet the
requirements. The descriptions were
general in terms. but absolutely specific
OF patented articles were minutely de-
scribed. 40 that articles OF the same gem
eral kind could not be offered in the COM
petition.
The committeeman have no idea as 10
whether the complaints are we'll found
ed or otherwise but they hope to pro-
cure information from the books kept
by Vice President Drake especially as
20 purchases made before the appoint
ment OF Mai. Gallagher of the army as
purchasing agent
The members Of the subcommittee are
understood to be trying 20 make II ap-
pear that the Isthmian canal commission
has mismanaged the work in many par
ticulars. and there is every reason why
It should be abolished. ss provided In the
bill on canal construction and govern
ment OF the canal zone passed by the
