STATE HOUSE CALENDAR,
Next Meeting of Governor and Council,

It is learned from the department Of
agriculture that it is possible that
there may be no farmers Institutes
held by the department during the COM
ing month of June, and thar the next
series Of meetings Of this kind will not
be forthcoming until August
one of the reasons given is that ow-
nS to the lattnesS Of the season, the
farmers viii all be busy during the
month with the planting Of their crops
The Geld weather which has thus far
characterized the spring weather has
caused great delay in all branches of
agriculture, and but very little has
bee n done in the way Of planting in this
section Of the State.
In connection with the abandonmenr
OF the June series Of institutes it is
SAID that there is possibility that
another tour may be made with the
Farming Special train. as there was
in 1906, and which took the place. Of one
series Of Institutes that year. The
special was Il great success and proved
or much value to the agricultural in
duStry, and il is thought possible. that
the experiment may be tried again this
year.

PUBLISHERS CASE ARGUED
Controversy Between Pressmen and
Members of TypOthetae NeRches
Final Stage.

CINCINNATI o., Dec. A.-Arguments in
the case of the United Typothetae Of
America, which seek to secure from the
United States courts permanent injunc-
ton against the officials of the Interna-
tional Pressmen's union encouraging or in
citing a strike in support of demands for
an eight-hour day prior to January l, 1909,
were finished today.
Attorneys for the typothetae, the employ
ing printers association, argued that a
contract had been entered into with the
pressmen's union for the Inauguration of
the eight-hour work-day on January 19,
1909, to hasten contravention of that con-
tract. Attorneys for the prosecution main
tain that the contract offered had never
been regularly ratified by the convention
of the union covering the points men,
toned. While brought in the name of the
United Typothetae, the suit is really that
of certain New York Massachusetts,, Chi
cago and ST, Louis publishers, who are
members of the typothetae. and those
concerns are also complainants in the APP
plications for injunction. A temporary in
junction pending the hearing was granted
several weeks ago.
