THE TELEGRAPHERs, STRIKE.

In view of the latest developments
in the telegraph operators strike it
Is not very difficult TO see which side
is in the right. The striking tele-
graphers. who have quite apparently
the upper hand Of the situation, have
announced their willingness TO sub
NIT the question to arbitration. The
telegraph companies have issued a
counter announcement that they will
not stand for any arbitration.
At the start OF the strike it did not
look as though the striking operators
had done exactly right in walking out
SO abruptly all over the country. As
q general thing it would have been
better had the question of a general
strike been submitted to a vote first.
But be that as it may, it is fact that
the stampede strike that set in is what
will win for the operators.
The fair offer Of the operators to
submit their demands to arbitration
ouOulo ilhC uP PubiA, cbAhACh oii NASAA
side In view of the flat-footed refusal
of the companies to enter into arbi-
tration at all 1t has been proven that
the operators have been undergrad,
that their salaries have been reduced
in the face of rising prices in all COM
modities necessary to maintain life.
They are entitled to higher salaries,
a fact that would undoubtedly be
brought out before an arbitration
board, and maybe this is why the
companies are so set against arbitra-
tion.
But arbitration it must be and pub
lie opinion all over the country should
force it. The telegraph companies are
earning wonderful dividends and it is
no more than fair that they should di-
vide their prosperity with the operat-
ors. In time of business depression
the operators are affected in regard
to lower salaries and it is no more
than fair that they should be CORES
pondingly reimbursed when the COM
panies are prosperous.

Scenes along the Wabash River dur
ing the last summer have rivaled the
sensational days when men journeyet
to the West by the hundreds to gair
great wealth in the gold mines. This
summer along the Wabash small for
tunes have been made in a single day
and number of mussel diggers have
picked up pearls worth 5000 or $500.
Encouraged by this success, pearl
hunting has come to be one of the
most favored industries along the In
diana water course. The most sue
cessful find perhaps made so far dur
ing the season was that of a Vim
cennes factory employe. He started
out one day to enjoy two weeks va
cation. When he returned he carried
pearl which is worth 81, 800 and per-
haps $4,000
During the last four or five years
Vincennes has been the center of a
flourishing pearl industry. The
amount of pearl money circula ting
now will run about $4,000 a month.
Makes Rich Find.
Since the industry first opened in
this vicinity quite few laborers have
realized small fortunes by lucky finds
and the one man to make this seasons
biggest is Leon Bouchner. He had
been employed at the Blackford Glass
Factory, and when the plant closed
down some few weeks ago decided to
spend his vacation in digging mussels. |
Luck seemed to be with him, and a
few days ago he made the biggest find |

it out and began using Postum. Twice
since then | have drank coffee and

MY brother was in the habit of
drinking coffee three times day. He
was troubled with sour stomach and
would often notice him getting So

day passed without dose of soda for
relief
Finally he tried a cup of Postum
and liked il so well he gave up cot

Postum in its place and says he has
not once been troubled with sour

Even after this ladys experience
with coffee her brother did not sus-

RARE HALF DOLLARS.
Good Specimens of Those Dated 1895
and 1897 Are Valuable.

The half dollar is one of the most
plentiful of all the series of United
States coins, having been issued regu-
larry each year with but five excep-
tons since the coinage of the denom-
nation first began in 1874. These
exceptions were the years 1893, 1893,
1900, 1908 and 1916.
This is the reason why so few of
them are rare nowadays and that
many specimens of the early dates are
to be had for little more than face
value in a condition that would indi-
cate they were only year or two
old, instead of dating back nearly n
hundred years, as many do.
Altogether there have been issued
235 varieties of the half dollar, and all
of the branch minis have struck coins
in this denomination. except those of
Dahlonega, Ga. and Charlotte, \. c.,
which were authorized to strike only
gold coins.
The very rare half dollars are those
dated 1876 and 1897. OF those of 1896
there are two varieties, one with fif-
teen stars on the diverse around the
bust of Liberty, the other with sixteen
stars. Each of these two varieties
has brought over S100 when in per-
feet condition.
The 1907 half dollar is the next
rarest, and very fine specimen of
this coin has brought as much as S120
The next rarest is the 1893 half dollar
struck at New Orleans. with the mint
letter co. under the bust. This coin
is worth from $50 to So. Another
rare half dollar was struck at the
San Francisco mint in 1865 This
coin omits the motto of I'm God We
Trust which is borne by all the other
varieties of the year, and is valued
at S24.-Elder Monthly.
