CORN SHOW A SUCCESS
Prizes Awarded And Permanent
Organization Perfected

The corn show closed Saturday even
ing with the first annual business meet
ing and election of officers of the Y
spicious day. Between six and seven
hundred visitors were received in
the auditorium and conducted through
the exhibits Saturday, and the show
was considered by all to have been
a decided success. in the competitive
corn exhibit there were forty entries,
nearly four times as many as were
found at the first meeting of the Ma
haska County Farmers Institute, which
has now grown to such proportions as
to be cramped for room in the largest
auditorium in the city, and this fact
alone gives evidence that the residents
of the county are taking an interest
i'm this organization of young farmers,
and all viii look forward to the corn
show in 1908.
Officers Elected.
AT the business meeting the spirit of
unison and accord was remarkable.

the old officers were reelected for the
ensuing year. The officers are:
President-Howard F. Kirk.

Secretary-Floyd C. Branson.
Treasurer-G. Z. Gilchrist.

IN 1889 RICHMOND STREET CAR

City Attorney T. J. Study was in
formed yesterday by Attorney John
l.. Rupe and G.. e. Shively that in
1889 the Richmond Street Railway
company waived all rights to the
Main street bridge, which at that time
the county commissioners were con-
templating building The city of Rich
mond also made an agreement, which
is on the city record books, that If
the county would build the bridge no
franchises would ever be granted to
the city to interurban or street car
companies which would give them
the right to use the bridge. This
agreement was a great surprise to Mr..
Study, and he now thinks that he
sees a way whereby the Indianapolis,
Columbus & Eastern Traction com
pany can be compelled to cease run
ming its 50-ton interurban cars over
the bridge, which has been greatly
weakened in this manner and which
is unable to stand the strain much
longer, according to City Engineer
Charles. Mr. Study has as yet taken
no steps in the matter

LAFOLLETTE WON
A FIERCE BATTLE
His Pet Measure Limiting
Hours of Railroad Men,
Passed by Senate.
ASSAULTS ON 1T FAIL
BILL WHICH FINALLY PASSED
WAS EVEN MORE DRASTIC
THAN RAILROAD EMPLOYEES
HAD ASKED FOR.
fPublishers Press ]


Washington, Jan. 10.-Senator La
Toilette won a hard fought battle in
the senate late this afternoon when
he forced to passage against deter
mined opposition his pet measure linn
iting the hours of labor for operating
railroad men.
Assault after assault was made up
on the measure in the form of amend
ments seeking to broaden the liberties
of the railroad company and to re
strict the scope of the bill
1t was plainly apparent that many
senators wished to avoid a vote upon
the direct question. A motion to re
commit would have solved the prob
lem for them. Several attempts
were made to get ruling from the
chair. The vice-president announc-
ed that such a motion would be a
grave breach of the unanimous con.
sent under which the senate was
working. That settled the fight. To
make victory more certain the Wis
consin senator abandoned the bill
which had been drawn by the repre-
sentatives of the railroad employees
organizations, and presented substi-
tute of his own which was even more
drastic than the original measure.
it was adopted by vote of thirty-six
to thirty-two after the senate had re-
jected, by a vote of forty-five to twen-
ty-three, a substitute offered by Mr..
Brandegee. The bill, as amended,
passed by vote of seventy to one,
Mr. Pettus, (Ala) voting in the neg
ative.
What the Measure Provides.
The measure makes it a misde mean
or for any common carrier engaged
in interstate or foreign commerce by
railroad or any of its officers or
agents who request or permit any EN-
ployes connected with the movement
OF any train carrying interstate or
foreign freight or passengers. to re-
main on duty more than sixteen con-
secutive hours, except when by casu-
atty occurring after such employe has
started on his trip or by unknown
casualty occurring before he started
on his trip, and except, when by acci-
dent or unexpected delay of train
schedule to make connection with the
train on which such employe is serv-
ing, he is prevented from reaching his
terminal; or to require or permit any
such employe who has been on duty
consecutive hours to go on
duty before having at least 10 hours
off duty; or to require or permit any
such employe w1o has been on duty
sixteen hours in the aggregate in any
"a hour period, to continue on duty
within such period
Thepenalty is fixed at from 500 to

AddIeman,S Mistake. HOWev-

GAVE WAY THE SURPRISE
FRANKLIN TOWNSHIP RESIDENT
WENT TO COUNTY FARM WHEN
GRAND JURY WAS NOT SCHED-
ULED THERE TILL TODAY.

Out at the county infirmary yester-
day morning scrub brushes worked
furiously and soap suds flew. In the
grand jury room yesterday morning
the wheels of justice were clogged.
T. J. Addleman, of Franklin town
ship, secretary of the grand jury, is
responsible both for the activity at
the infirmary and the inactivity in
the grand jury room at the court
house. He is also responsible for the
fact that when the grand jury ar
rives at the infirmary today its visit
will not be in the nature of a sur
prise.
This is how . ell happened Mr..
Addelman unf I'd at the meeting
of the grand Wednesday that the
jury would swoop down on the in
firmary Thursday, taking everyone
by surprise as they did at the jail
last Monday. However, Mr.. Addel-
man was mistaken, as Friday was the
day set for the visit. Consequently,
when the jurymen metz yesterday
morning there was one absentee -
Mr.. Addelman. They waited and
waited and the hours flew by, but no
Addleman arrived on the scene, and
no work was transacted His alb
sence could not be accounted for. At
last about noon the missing juryman
arrived at the court house and his
brother jurors fell upon him.
AddIeman Demands EXPLANATION.
How comes you didn't go to the
infirmary today" demanded Addle-
man. Explanations were then in or
der. Mr. Addleman stated that he
was sorry he had spoiled the little
surprise party, but that one thing
was certain, when the jury did visit
the infirmary they would be treated
to dinner that would make all their
mouths water When Addleman found
that his brother jurors did not intend
to put in an appearance he promptly
scheduled TO show at the infirmary
Friday and incidentally, like a true
native of Franklin township, he ar
ranged with the superintendent for
dinner. When Addleman let the cat
out of the bag concerning the date
of the jurors visit it is reported that
all the scrub brushes and bars of
soap in the building were put into SER
vice and worked over time
