PEOPLE DEMAND BETTER
RAILWAY ACCOMMODATION

South Bend, Ind: Following the
example set by several other rapidly
growing commercial centers, South
Bend is preparing to inaugurate a
campaign having as its object a fine
railroad passenger station. This may
also carry with 1t track elevation.
The South Bend Tribune has for
years been fighting for a union sta
ton and its efforts seem to have
made some impression, for a commit
tee has been appointed to look after
the matter. Track elevation may
also be insisted upon. Probably no
city of 10000 has enjoyed so few
privileges from the railroads as South
Bend. Such great and wealthy roads
as the Lake Shore, Grand Trunk
Western, Vandalia and Michigan
Central, to say nothing of the lesser
roads, provide miserable passenger
accommodations and some fifty trains
day enter the city.
South Bend feels that its enormous
manufacturing and commercial inter-
ests entitle 1t to better consideration
from the railroads. Track elevation
and a union passenger station, there
fore, may be insisted upon.

coal mined by them. The coal is not
weighed, but is calculated by the mine
car. These cars, at least in some col
leries, are rated at a capacity of two
and one-half tons, whereas they often
have a capacity of four and in some
cases up to six tons, but the miner
is paid for only two and a half tons,
and for all above that he mines he
gets no pay whatever. This is rob-
berry of the poor and oppression of
the weak.
In so far as the state government
does not take the initiative in rem
edying these wrongs, then correction
can be left to no other agency than
the organization of labor. Unfor-
tunately, the miners of West Virginia
are poorly organized, and as a con-
sequence they fall easy prey to the
avariciousness of their employers.
1t Is but just to say that there are
in West Virginia many fair and hu-
name employers. who would welcome
a change in these conditions, but
even those consciences rebel against
l.lis un-American system are compell-
ed to adopt it in order to enable them
to compete with their more unscru-
pulous neighbors.

SENSEIESS WAY TO WASTE
MONEY OF THE PEOPLE

Chicago: When President Cor
nelius Z. Shea of the International
Brotherhood of Transfers, and his
fellow defendants, who have been on
trial on charge of conspiracy COM
mitted during the teamsters' strike
against the department stores in Chi
cago two years ago, were found not
guilty by a jury i'm the criminal court,
there was ended a second senseless
and useless trial, the jury having dis
agreed on the first trial. The sec
ond trial was a direct contract to the
first, owing to the quick progress
made in securing the jury and in
presenting the evidence. 1t was be-
gun on February 1 and the jury was
completed nineteen days later, where
as seventy-eight days were consumed
in securing the former jury, and the
trial lasted in all 131 days. One of
the features of the second trial was
the liberty extended the jurors by
Judge Cavanaugh, who permitted
them to visit their homes, accompan-
led by deputy sheriffs, so that they
might give attention to important
personal business and see their fam
lilies. Special arrangements were
also made for gymnasium and other
privileges for the men. The cost of
the trial is estimated at $4,000. The
former one is said to have cost $780,
OO0
The chief witnesses for the state in
this, as in the former trial, were AL
bert Young, president of rival team
sters' organization, and two other
general defendants, all of whom
turned states evidence during the
progress of the former trial.

Special Correspondence.
Charleston, w. Va, Feb. 26.-John
Mitchell, president of the United Mine
Workers of America, has given your
correspondent the following special
interview:
There is no doubt that conditions
of life and labor among the miners of
West Virginia, especially in the New
River, Fairmont and Norfolk & West
ern fields, to say the least, are intol-
erable.
The guard system, by which ire
! sponsible and often vicious men are
employed ostensibly to protect prop
erty, but in reality for the purpose of
keeping the employees in subsection,
is "A curse to the working people and
a disgrace TO the state.
| The numerous explosions and the
great number of fatalities incident
to them could be reduced fully one
half by the enactment of wise laws
or even the rigid enforcement of those
now on the statute books.
II is of interest to note that the
number of persons killed per 1000
Iemployed is greater in West Virginia
than i'm other states, Notwithstanding
the fact that the natural danger in
cident to mining is less than in other
states.

and ESQ were seriously injured, or

WONDERS OF THE NEW WEST
ERN IDEA OF DRY FARMING"
BY WHICH EVERY DROP OF
RAIN is TO BE UTILIZED IN
THE ARID LANDS EAST OF
ROCKIES.
(By G. NJ. Hargcr.)


Denver, Colo, Feb. 26.-"Three
hundred million acres of land lie be-
tween the western limit of n rainfall
greater than 20 inches annually and
the Rocky Mountains" declared Pro-
fessor Elwood Mead, government ir-
rigationist at the dry farming con-
gress, where were gathered 1000 dele
gates representing 16 states.
This land can be transformed into
farms and homes If we can utilize
all the rainfall. This semi-arid region
and other separated semi-arid sections
in the western half of the United
States present the greatest problem
now before the people of this coun-
try"
This congress was the first ever
held in America in the interest of
the dry lands. 1t was composed of
scientific farmers and men of wide
acquaintance with the west.
"The responsibility of making the
upland prairies a fit place for homes
lies with the farmers" said ]. l..
Donahue, of Denver. upon these
lands hosts will surely settle"
"At no station in wyoming" de-
clared weather bureau authority in
an address, has the rainfall fallen
below 10 inches, except at Cheyenne"
Crops can be raised every year, say
the dry farming experts, If such a
rainfall can be conserved. They hope
to save the moisture of one year over
until the next, thus getting enough
for the grain roots.
Take a lump of sugar and a spoon
full of loose sugar. Upon each pour
a spoonful of water. What happens
The lump retains little and the re-
mander runs off; the loose sugar alb
serbs of 1t and retains the moisture.
That is the secret of "dry farming
H. w. Campbell started it up in
Dakota in the early SOS. He found
| that by cultivating his fields three
| times when his neighbors titled theirs
once he raised three times as much
grain. He produced potatoes that
were marvels for those sections and
wheat that yielded 35 bushels to the

acre. Then the Campbell system"
spread and the railroads took it up.
by keeping the top of the ground
fine you have dust blanket that
receives all the water that falls and
keeps in all the water that goes be-
low the surface" That is his plat
form, the platform of the dry farm
ers.
1t wins, too. out in western Kan
sas and eastern Colorado last sum-
mer were raised as good crops of
wheat as those in eastern Kansas and
eastern Nebraska. They are starting
homes and are preparing to stay.
Practically all the land owned by the
railroads in those sections has been
sold. 1t has doubled in price. 1t is
being fenced and cultivated.
A traction engine is hitched to a
string of plows which turns over 40
acres of sod in a day. Then a head
| light is put on the engine and 1t
turns over 40 acres more in the night.
Thus is the western plain being trans
| formed.
, A few years ago 500 bushels OF
durum wheat was imported from the
arid regions of the old world; now
| 50,000,000 bushels are raised in the
United States. 1t is dry farming
crop. one that stands the drought. II
| is not time for thick settlement of
the high plains. but many can find
homes If they will farm intelligently
| That is what the dry farming con-
gress will do. 1t will rival the irri-
cation congress in getting benefits for
the great west. What crops to raise
how to select seed, how to till the
soil, how to keep the moisture-these
things dwellers on semi-arid lands
want to know and they believe the
government should help them.
