Better pay or Skeleton" regiments.
That is the alternative presented to
the military committees of the House
and Senate.
Senator Dick of Ohio has agreed
to the terms ora bill, the object of
which is to secure better pay for the
army and the navy. The bill is the
joint work of officials of the navy

Roosevelt Will Take No Hand in
Strike.

President Roosevelt will not, at the
present at least, concern himself per-
sonally in the telegraphers' strike.
Appeals from commercial associa-
tons in various cities, led by the re-
quest of the Chicago board of trade,
reached Oyster Bay in large num-
bers Wednesday, and brought forth
the president declination to take a
hand in the difficulties.
The appeals from the commercial
exchanges were an referred BY Mr..
Roosevelt to Labor Commissioner
NELL, who is now in Chicago seeking
to bring peace out of war.
No instructions or recommended
tons have been forwarded by the
president to Mr.. Neil, who from the
first has been active in an endeavor
to effect a settlement of the trouble.
He has as yet made no report to the
president, nor has he received mes
sages from Mr. Roosevelt touching
upon the matter in hand.
Mr.. Neill's movements, however,
have been followed closely. and while
the direct statement is not made the
impression given is that in Mr. Neilps
efforts the administration considers
that the limit of its functions and
authority in the matter is being exer-
cised.
Secretary Loeb, in Oyster Bay,
SAID there appeared to be a concen,
trated movement on the part of COM
mercial organizations throughout the
country to solicit the presidents aid
IN bringing about a cessation of the
strike. These appeals came in re-
spouse to request from the Chicago
board of trade that the action be
made general.
Among these messages sent to the
president was one from the Kansas
City board. closely following the SEN
timent expressed in the one that had
ben sent the day before from Chi
cago. The Kansas City message said
The deadlock between the teleg-
raphers and their employers is a ma
tional calamity demanding an imme-
date settlement of the differences at
issue. In this emergency we must
respectfully urge you to use your best
endeavors to bring about settle
ment."
The Detroit board of trade adopted
resolution and sent it TO the presi-
dent declaring that 'the peril to the
business interests of the country is
OF srch magnitude as to warrant i'm
mediate action by the government
looking to arbitration or an amicable
adjustment of the disputed ques-
TONS"
The same action was taken by the
Indianapolis board of trade and the
produce exchange of Toledo asked
the president to act as mediator in
the strike.
A meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the Chicago Association Of
Commerce will be held H. 4 Still
we'll, chairman of the ways and
means committee, said he favors
presidential interference in the strike.
This strike affects the business of
the entire country and some means
should be taken at once to put a
speedy end to the conflict" said he

Strikers Begin to Use Violence.

The first violence in connection
with the telegraphers' strike was re-
ported Tuesday when an armed mobat
Ashfork, Arizona, riddled with bull
lets the office of the Postal company
Governor Kibbey was appealed to for
protection, and E. j. Nally, general
manager of the Postal, took up the
matter with the federal authorities in
Washington.
Asfork is a small town on the Sante
Fe and is the chief repeating station
of the Postal Company between Lo.
Angeles and the East Two employees
who refused to obey the strike order
were in the building when the attack
was made No one was injured, but
all the windows were broken and the
lights shot out
The last dispatch from Ashfork
stated that the local manager of the
company was preparing to run spec
ial train to Prescott to bring the
sheriff and a sufficient number of dep
uties to protect the company's prop
erty. s.-....-.v +,
Tie most important development in
me local strike situation Tuesday was
the announcement by President Smell
that The American Telegraph and
Telephone Company had made an
agreement establishing an eight-hour
workday for its operators throughout
the country and granting wage in
crease from 10 to Is per cent. The
company employees about 800 operat-
ors, mostly in the Southwest. The
settlement precludes the possibility
of any trouble with the long distance
telephones
AT the local Offices OF the Associ-
ated Press Colonel c. S. Diehl, assis-
tant general manager, said the situa-
ton was rapidly approaching a nor
NAL condition and that the strike was
over so far as the Associated Press
is concerned. Under normal condi-
tons he said the Associated Press
employs 142 operators between Pitts
burg and Salt Lake, and Tuesday 81
of theri were at work Out of about
400 operators employed altogether,
the reports Tuesday showed that $50
were at their keys. The entire Indi-
ana circuit was working with the old
force of operators.
The reports indicated that the tie
up was almost complete in the South
west. Dispatches from New Orleans
Tuesday night stated that the strikers
were deserving. and that they had
appealed to the companies TO transfer
them to other points so as to avoid
the criticism of their fellows. Union
reports from the same city stated that
the strikers were standing firm and
were prepared to stay out for two
months
'The best indication that our men
are standing firm is that over 1900
have joined the union since Aug. L."
said President Small Tuesday night.
1--WE are entirely satisfied with the
situation, and | believe that is more
than the companies can say"

Personal Contact Broadens Men.

Few things broaden men more
rapidly than contact with their fell
lows. If the contact be forced by the
exigencies of business, social or in
dustrial life the development is likely
to be along the line which compels
the association. Men of the profess
sions hold their meetings that they
may touch each other in points that
are common TO both. Mind meets
mind and knowledge passes from one
to the other, experience lends its re-
suits to those who have not tried GER
tain methods and the successful stir
the Indifferent TO more action. These
are only the more plainly manifest
results of the meeting of men of
sympathetic calling, but they illus
trate also the value of special con-
tact for and women of classes and
calling. The meeting together of men
in different callings, the exchange of
thoughts upon topics of interest, the
discussion of questions of public ma
ture help to keep men alert in their
minds as well as to open new ideas
to the inquiring and to supply know1-
edge to those who are willing to re-
ceive information. Young men should
form the habit of occasionally rub
bing elbows with older men as well
in their own caiiings as in the gener-
al walks of life. They will find such
contact of vast value, but the older
men will also find good suggestions
in the enthusiasms of youth, even
though they lack some of the wis
dom of experience.-E1khart Review.

Two Cent Fare Increases Revenue.

Governor Hanly says that passen-
ger traffic in Indiana, under the twp
cent fare law, has increased 20 per
cent, and that it is still Increasing.
We do not know where Governor
Hanly obtained his information, but
an increase of business following a
lowering of prices or cut of rates,
is the logic of the situation, and the
increase of traffic is bound to con-
tinue until the cut in rates is more
than made up by receipts from a
larger army of passengers.

and log line. The log chip is n piece
of board. shaped like the fourth part
OF circle. loaded with lead on the
round side. so that It will stand up in
the water The log line is $50 to 200
fathoms long. 1t is wound rpoh large

The line IS divided into equal parts by
bits Of string run through it. each
marked by the number of knots in tt;
hence these divisions are called knots
The log chip when thrown into the wa

47.3 feet When it is known how many
of these run out In half minute, 1t Is
