Chronology of the Strike.
On March /, 1907, the Western
Union Telegraph company announced
general increase OF 10 per cent in
wages for all managers and operators.
This announcement was made at the
time the Commercial Telegraphers'
Union of America was making rapid
headway in securing membership
among telegraph operators, obvious
ly for the purpose of enforcing de-
mands for higher wages and shorter
hours. There had been no effective
Commercial Telegraphers' union since
the famous strike of 1888, when the
Western Union Telegraph company
won against the union.
Following the announcement of
March l, the Commercial Telegraph
ers' union claimed that the advance
was not impartially given to all OPP
orators, and besides made demands
for further concessions.
As result on June 81, President
Small called a strike of operators at
San Francisco and Oakland, CAL, an
nouncing that the men would be call
ed out in other cities until his plan
of guerilla warfare should succeed.
After several weeks a settlement was
reached with the companies through
the intercession Of Commissioner
Neill, of the United States department
of labor. The men claimed a vic
tory, and so did the companies. The
men claimed that the companies
agreed to re-employ all striking union
men without discrimination. The
companies claim that they agreed to
re-employ them only on conditions
satisfactory to themselves.
Last week a Western Union oper-
ator was discharged in Los Angeles
the cause given being insubordination.
The entire Western Union force walk
ed out. The Postal Telegraph COM
pany's force Joined in the walkout.
The companies employed non-unior
men. The Chicago forces of both
companies refused to work with non
union labor at Los Angeles and quit
work. From Chicago the strike has
extended over the United States and
Canada.

WINCHESTER INTERESTED
Hears Report Of a Traction Line TO
Richmond, and Citizens Prick
Up Their Ears.

Winchester, Ind, March 15.-For
some time rumors have been going the
rounds to the effect that the ancient
project of building an interurban line
through this city to Cincinnati by way
of Richmond was about to be revived,
and although no confirmation can be
secured the reports refuse to be down
ed. One story has 1t that the road is
to connect Cincinnati and Chicago,
and that it will be financed by leading
capitalists of the two cities. Repre-
sentatives of the alleged company
have been here and taken away a
scale map of Randolph county, and IL
is said that the work of surveying and
getting the right of way in Wayne
county will be commenced at once.
Some people connect the rumors with
the fact that the Cincinnati, Bluffton
& Chicago Railway company will COM
mence a survey in this county in the
near future for the purpose of finding
the best route for the proposed extern
sion of their line in this direction.
The Cincinnati and Richmond route
has been surveyed and projected
through Winchester a number of times
ually commenced and the people could
almost see the cars coming down Main
street, but the whole thing finally
blew up. Any renewal of the plans
would be welcomed here

FRICTION HAS ARISEN
Two Resign Places at the
State Library.
GOVERNOR is INVOLVED

Indianapolis, March 15-The State
Board of Education, in session at the
office of State Superintendent Fas-
sett A. Cotton, accepted the resigna-
librarian in the State Library, and of
Miss Margaret Grim, who has been a
stenographer in the office of State Ii
brarian Demarchus c. Brown. The
designations were made in writing and
in accepting them the board informed
the two women that the action was
taken without prejudice against either
of them.
The designations come, it is said,
as the result of friction that has ex-
listed in the State Library between
Miss Elrod and Mr.. Brown and that
dates from Miss Elrod's candidacy for
the office of state librarian against
Mr. Brown last summer. Miss Elrod
was promised support by Governor
Hanly at the time she announced
herself as a candidate. Governor Han
ly is a member of the State Board OF
Education and it is charged by Miss
Elrod that when the meeting was
called for the purpose of electing a
librarian the Governor announced
that he had agreed to support Miss Ell
rod, but added that while he would
vote for her he believed that Mr..
Brown should be elected.
Mr.. Brown admitted that there had
been friction in the State Library, es-
pecially since the defeat of the Moore
bill at the last session of the Legisla-
ture which contemplated the consoli-
dation of the State Library and the
State Library Commission
The defeat of the bill, it is charged
by Mr.. Brown, was due to the eff
forts of Miss Elrod and Miss Grim to-
gether with other young women from
the office of the state auditor and
other State offices.

is NOW ABOUT go YEARS

Hagerstown, Ind, March 15-Sam-
ueI c. Whitesell, for many years a
prominent lawyer Of this county, was
removed to Easthaven hospital for the
insane today. Two years ago Mr.
WhiteseIl became deranged from over
work and was admitted to Easthaven
for treatment. He improved rapidly
while in the hospital and his removal
was recommended by DIR. S. f. Smith,
Superintendent of the institution. He
was returned TO his home near Hag-
erstown, where he remained content
eddy until within the past month,
when his old malady returned and it
was necessary to provide for his re-
straint.
WHiTESELL is WELL KNOWN.
Mr.. WhiteseH is about sixty years
of age For number of years he
lived in Cambridge City. where he
practiced law and enjoyed a fine
reputation over the county. He sub
sequently acquired the ownership of
the Cambridge City Tribune, of which
he became the editor. giving the pa
per force and originality. He dis
posed OF the Tribune and moved to
Richmond. where he became manag-
ing editor of the Morning 1ndepend-
emf. a democratic daily established by
Fred Mag, well known resident of
Richmond This venture was not
profitable and Mr.. .Whitesell resumed
the practice of law in Richmond. Wor-
Ty over the settlement of an estate in
which he was interested caused his
mental distress. A lawsuit long
drawn out exhausted his nervous force
and decisions took possession of his
mind. His entrance into the Hospital
ends career of much promise, for it
is the belief of his physician that he
will not be able to endure the effects
of his disease many weeks.
Mr.. Whitesell has a wife and one
son. Frank C. 'Whitesell who reside

What Liquozone Is.

Liquozone is a tonic-germicide. the
virtues of which are derived solely
from oxide gases. No alcohol, no mar
cotic, nothing but gas enters into it.
The process of making requires large
apparatus, and consumes ii days
time. The object is to SO combine the
gases with liquid as to carry their
virtues into the system.
The result is germicide so GER
tain that we publish with every bottle
an offer of 81 600 for a disease germ
that Liquozone cannot kill. It des-
troys them because germs are of veg
etable origin. But to the body Liquo-
zone is exhilirating. vitalizing, puri-
flying.
That is its main distinction Com
mon germieides are poisons when ia
ken internally. They are impossible.

Germ Diseases.

Most of our sickness has. in late
years. been traced to germ attacks.
Some germs-as in skin troubles
directly attack the tissues Some Gre
ate toxins, causing such troubles as
Rheumatism, Blood Poison. Kidcey
Disease and nerve weakness. Some
destroy vital organs. as in Consump-
ton. Some-like the germs Of Ca

cause indigestion. In one of these
ways, nearly every serious aiIment is
