WORKED TOO LONG.
w. d. Robinson Brings City of Chanute
to Time.

w. d. Robinson, deputy Commission
er of the state bureau of labor statis-
tics has returned from Chanute where
he settled a controversy between la
borePs employed by the city in digging
trenches for the laying of water pipes
and the city authorities over the pay
which should be given to the men.
Under a state law city laborers shall
receive the same per diem rate Of
wages as is given to laborers employed
by private parties. The city of Cha
mute had been paying its laborers in
this particular case twenty cents an
hour for eight hours work. or $3.50 a
day. Men engaged on similar work by
private parties were getting twenty
cents an hour for ten hours work, or
81 a day. Now there is a state law
which prohibits the employment Of
than eight hours a day and then there
is this other law that men on city
work shall receive the same per diem
pay as other laborers in the same kind
of work. And the ruling of the bu-
reau of labor statistics is that men on
city work shall receive this same per
diem pay even If they do not work
as many hours as the men employed
by private parties. Mr.. Robinson ex-
planned this to the Chanute authOri-
ties and they announced that they
would pay the prevalent per diem
wage in the future.
Mr.. Robinson also visited lola to
look into a complaint that some men
employed on concrete work around
the city library were being compelled
to work more than eight hours a day
He found the complaint we'll founded
but that the work was completed prac-
tically. He received assurances from
the. city officials of lola that the eight
hour law would be observed in the fu-
ture on all city work.

The murder occurred in Little

a number OF people were in the saloon

forenoon Of yesterday and when he
entered Damron's saloon mis- eyes fell
on Lane. who was at the counter. He
walked slowly toward him. and reach

Kaiser May Come
HE AND KING EDWARD Vii LIKE
LY TO MEET AT THE JAMES
TOWN EXPOSITION

NORFOLK, Va, June 15.-The
London Daily Telegraph urges King
Edward to pay a visit to America
next year. The Kings itinerary
would include a visit to President
Roosevelt at Washington, a sojourn
in Norfolk, Va, to witness the James
town Exposition, which in 1907 is to
commemorate the settlement OF
America by English speaking peo-
pie If King Edward decides to throw
precedence to the winds and again
visit America-he was here as Prince
of Wales-he Will also visit New
York and Canada
/ It is we'll known that the relations
between the English King and the
London Daily Telegraph are most cor
dial When he was Prince Of Wales,
the present King was instrumental in
having the proprietor of the paper
knighted. It is therefore reasonable
to assume that the warmth and en-
thusiasm of the Daily Telegraph ov-
er the question OF the Kings visit to
America meets with the approval and
sympathy Of the monarch. 1t may be,
indeed that the opinions expressed
were inspired by a nod or word from
the King and remains to be seen
how the British people regard the
! matter as a whole. AT present it
looks as though the King may yet
plant tree on the grounds of the
jamestown Exposition, sit under the
branches of the great Powhatan oak
which was a mature tree when
King James granted the Virginia
