LOCAL BAKERS INTERESTED
MASTER BAKERS ASSOCIATION
OF INDIANA. WHICH MET IN
RICHMOND RECENTLY, TO URGE
CHAIRS Establishment

Richmond members OF the Indiana
Master Bakers association are now
much interested in the proposed estab-
lishment Of a chair of scientific bak-
ing at Purdue university. The Mas
ter bakers association met in Rich
mond recently. Next Tuesday mem
bers of the organization will go to La
fayette. Ind, in which town Purdue is
located. and confer with President
Stone in regard to inaugurating the
new school.
The idea of adding the teaching of
baking to the curriculum of state col
leges originated with the Indiana Mas
ter Bakers association four years ago
and has aroused attention in many
states, besides receiving the indorse
ment of the national convention last
year. President Stone. OF Purdue
feels friendly toward the movemen,
and it is probable Purdue will be the
first American college to take this for
ward step.
1t is proposed to have a regular de
partment devoted to baking, and young
men who have served an apprentice
ship at the trade will be given scien
tific technical instruction in the art o1
making good bread, which is too little
understood, according to many meI
whose vocation in life is the making
of the staff of life. 1t is said that the
large bakeries find difficulty in secur
ing men we'll equipped by practical
knowledge to take charge of their de
partments. and young men with a col
lege diploma in the art would fine
high salaried positions open to then
from the day of their graduation.

CONFIDENCE IS
BEING RESTORED
Labor Conditions in Richmond
Are Looking Brighter
As Time Passes.
FACTORY FORCES INCREASE
URATED ETRENCHMENT POLL
CY SOME TIME AGO ARE RE-
EMPLOYING MEN.

The Davis Carriage company. which
has for some time been running with
small number of men. will next Mon
day increase it's working force so that
about half the regular number of en-
ployes will be taken back. 1t is un-
derstood that three or four other large
factories which have been practically
shut down for a month or longer, will
on Moday, substantially increase their
working forces.
Since about the first of November. a
large percentage of the shop employees
in this city have been without employ
ment. consequently there has been a
large number of idle men in the city,
Business conditions are now growing
brighter. and after the first of January
greater part of this army of unem-
--loyed will be back at their jobs.
AS usual the first of last month
nearly all the local factories shut down
for invoice and repairs. About this
time the financial furry in New York
came about and unsettled business con.
ditions in Richmond. the same as il
did every where else in the United
States. When the usual time for re
suming operations came. the local man
ufacturers. instead of resuming opera
tions with their full staff of shop EN-
! ployes. cut down their working forces
to a skeleton basis on account of these
! conditions.
AS has been predicted. the financial
unrest is becoming more settled. anG
business men are once more resumina
confidence. The result will be that
after the first of the year nearly every
factory in Richmond will be operating
with substantial working forces. The
railroads entering Richmond are nov
re-employing men. At one time. not
over three weeks ago. it was estimated
that there were fifteen hNndred men il
this city out of employment. Already
this figure has been considerably Re
duced. am.

POLITICS IS NOW
SIZZLING IN WAYNE
w. H. BIodgett of the News
Writes EntertainingIy
Of Situation.
LULL IN FACTIONAL FIGHT.
SAYS TRUCE WILL BE MAIN
TANNED TILL PRIMARY is HELD
-SHiVELEY TO BE CANDIDATE
FOR JUDGE AGAINST FOX.

W. H. BlOdgett, a former Richmond
dianapolis News. of Wayne county pol
iticS. says:
The republicans of this county. real
izing that they came near losing the
county because of personal quarrels.
have stopped quarrelins for the present
and are trying to patch up things.
Mind, | said for the present. Indica-
tions are that within thirty days the
faction fight will be on with as much
virulence as ever. The county primary
is to be held early in February, and
the hope of the salve spreaders is that
they can keep down the fuss until
after the primary. They are. therefore.
trying to get the congressional ques-
tion settled first.
This county has three candidates
for congress-Rev. J. o. Campbell, VIII
fred Jessup and DR.. Yencer-and it is
proposed to have a primary to settle
which of these three shall be regarded
as Wayne cOunty's nominee. The fact
is that many republicans in this cOun-
ty do not desire any of them. and it is
boldly said that if w. O. Barnard, Of
New Castle. could be voted for at the
same time as the others he would car
ry Wayne county. There has been
some talk of placing Mr. Barnard S
name on the ticket in the primary elec-
/ tion to be held in this county. but those
who have his interests most at heart
say they doubt the wisdom of it. They
say that though he might carry the
county and be all right. if he should
fail to carry the county. then he would
have lovely fight on his hands-every
one of the candidates would combine
against him. Well. for that matter
the race as it now stands is Barnard
against the field with the chances that
the field will lose.
With Mr.. Barnard out of the pri-
mary in this county there is not much
question that the Rev. Mr. Campbell
will carry the county. Jessup got in
wrong and DR.. Veneer is about as much
of a joke here-politically. | mean-as
he was in the legislature.
The delegation in the convention
will be for Wayne county man until
the break comes. and then it will &c
to Barnard. If it is seen that Charlie:
Stivers of Liberty. has no chance. Un
ion county will line up with Wayne
and Henry for Barnard. shelby coun
ty having a candidate for a state office
will have to divide its vote. Rush

will divide its vote for the same rea.

Special Council Committee
And Board of Works Will
Meet in Joint Session Fri
day Night.
Is REPORT OF BOARD
ENTIRELY CORRECT?
One Member on Special Com
mittee Doubts Whether the
Plant Is Making as Much
Money as 1t Is Asserted.

The first meeting of the board Of
public works. and the council commit
tee appointed to confer with the board
in regard to the proposed sale of the
municipal light plant 20 the Light.
Heat & Power company, will be held
Friday evening.
Members of the council committee
appointed for this purpose, are said to
be on the fence in regards to the pro-
mittee today held that at the present
time, he was neither for or against the
sale of the plant to the competitive
company. He said that he thought
the council committee favored the
proposition submitted to council by the
Light Heat & Power company that as
basis for negotiations a firm Of char
tered accountants and electrical engi-
neers be appointed to make an exami-
nation and appraisal of the municipal
plant, and TO report on its condition,
this investigation to be made at the eN-
pense of the Light, Heat and Power
company. The committee member
then said that if this investigation re-
vealed the fact that it was not finan-
Cial success. he would be in favor Of
selling it on acceptable terms and con-
ditions to the Light. Heat Il Power
company He said that he thought the
other m4..bcrs of the committee We're
of the same opinion.
1t is understood that all members Of
the council investigating committee
are in favor of retaining the plant 4
the proposed corps of experts find the
condition of the plant to be as describ-
ed by the board OF public works. in a
communication to council after the
completion of the recent improvements
at the plant. which were made at a
cost of 900.
In this report the board makes a
statement. which pictures the outlook
for the municipal plant in most glow
ing language. The report in part. fo,-
lows:
AT the time the former board rec.
commended additional equipment, De,
cember llth. 1909, the city plant had
1900 consumers. with an average
monthly income of S4,40O, and an av-
erage monthly expense of S2.023 The
plant now has over 1900 consumers
with an average monthly income oi
$500 and an average monthly ex
pense of $500. This shows an in.
crease in monthly receipts OF over Il
per cent in a year and half. and an
increase in monthly expenses of about
56 per cent. the same period. whicn
shows that the ratio of profit increases
faster than the volume of business.
These figures not only vindicate the
wisdom of the former board and coun.
Gil in anticipating the growth of the
plant. but they also serve to indicate
the wisdom of the present management
of this, the only property of the city
that is source of revenue. Almost
the only factor in our civic life that
comes to the relief of the always over
burdened taxpayer"

WINTER WILL Be A VERY COLD ONE
SAY THE OLD TRADITIONAL SIGNS
SQUIRRELS ARE BUsIER THAN ORDINARY, CoRNHUsKs
ARE THICK WHILE THE BARK ON THE NORTH
SIDE OF TREES is HEAVIER.

Despite the prophesying of warmer
weather. the old Hoar King of the
North.' continues TO rule, and the
thermometer again descended the tube
last night and did not stop until it
reached the IA degree mark. This
however was the coldest it has been
during the present week.
Old observers of weather signs say
that in all probability this will be a
cold winter. if the signs of former
years hold good. Many of the farmers
state that the husks on the corn are
ahnormally thick, which fact is being
discovered during the cribbing seas

hunters, who have been in the woods
considerably during the past two
weeks. that the squirrels and birds
nave been unusually precautions in
laying by goodly supply of nuts and
grains. 1t is also said by some that
the bark on the trees is slightly thick
er on the north sides of the trunks
than on the opposite side of the tree, a
faithful omen of approaching winter
of severity.
How much credence can be placed
in these prophecies is much mooted
question, and one to which there
seems to bs no common agreement

PUBLIC'S OPINION
SOLICITED.

The Palladium desires to obtain
expressions from its Richmond
subscribers relative to the pro
posed sale of the municipal light
plant Study the proposition care
fully and send the result of your
conclusions to the Palladium for
publication. Such communications
will aid greatly in determining the
attitude of the citizens of Rich
mond towards their light plant and
will be of real service to those in
office who have to consider the
question of the sale officially. In
studying this question, be guided
by your business reason and don t
let sentiment usurp its place The
proposition of the sale is purely
a business proposition for this city
and should be handled as such.

Washington. Dec. 5.-The legisla-
session of congress has been mapped
out with definiteness by the leaders
and ma" now be stated for the first
time. II has been decided:
/. That there shall be no central
bank of issue.
,. That no asset currency proposi-
tion shall get through congress.
3. That there shall be no legisla-
ton fnsuring bank depositors against
loss by levying "A tax on national
banks.
With these three propositions out of
the way the door is not left open for
currency legislation, and If there is
any legislation of that character at
all 1t will not be anything more ex-
'tensive than a law authorizing to a
limited extent the issuance OF eDler-
gency currency based upon municipal
and state bonds heavily taxed so as
to retire 1t automatically from circu-
lation when the need of it is over
To these specifications of the legis-
iI'iNS PioSi ohi may p'- dddCu a III,
namely. that there will be no legisla-
ton for the establishment of postal
banks and the parcels post. Speaker
Cannon is against anything In the way
of currency legislation that involves
a considerable departure from the
present banking system.
The decision to throttle the parcels
post and postal savings bank is con-
elusive and will not be changed. In
a nutshell this session will be "gab
fest in which currency. the tariff and
postal savings banks will be discussed
at libitum, but no important action
will be taken beyond passing the ap-
preparation bills.
Banking Committee Meets.
The newly appointed house commit.
, tee on banking and currency held its
first meeting today, spending two and
one-half hours in discussing the cur
rency question. The only definite ac-
tion taken at this initial meeting was
the authorizing of the chair to appoint
a subcommittee of five to draft and
submit a currency bill. There will be
no hearings before the committee un-
til the subcommittee has finished its
task and the completed draft is I'm
the hands of the chairman.
