A PRESIDENT SIaSi NOW Now Railroad Discipline Wine
 In the Long Run.

MT. Harvey, the commuter. was painfully reading the latest story of the trusts alleged wickedness when MT. Bolting. freight conductor of duty, showed his labor Journal in his face with heavy finger laid upon a name at the top of capitalized list of new executive officers of great western railroad
 "There'll be harmony in that board, all right" chuckled MT. Bolting. You knew our old division superintendent. didn't you?"
 "Only slightly, thank you" said MT. Harvey, studying the name "A soft spoken. short, stout Irish gentleman. with cast, I think
 The same" observed MT. Bolting. with a glass eye. bull neck. and short mustache, just turnin'. and them shoulders, hey?
 'Ill tell you about the time he had the short-spoken tall, thin German gentleman who's runnfn' the engine to-day up for discipline"
 'Oh. don't!" pleaded MT. Harvey. "The whole train knows that story. Here, read this life insurance piece It's scandalous"
 Thanks" pursued MT. Bolting, re- lentlessly. laying the newspaper atop of his full dinner pail The engineer used to have a dirty Dutch temper when he was flrin' and so all hands just couldn't help piagdn' him. till one day the baggage master overdid it out on the branch line and got him goin'."
 ', MT Harvey sank back Through near.closed eyelids he watched the smooth, spiral revolving of the tele- graph poles as the fier shot along. MT. Bolting, like the train. went on.
 Say. 1t was scand'tous! The pair of 'em fought all over the sidin' and switches in plain sight of the Pull mans and all them swell commuters. They held her. too for nigh on to two minutes before the rest of the crew could drag 'em back on their jobs
 They had two full days to think 1t over before things happened. Then the baggage master got shifted to a long, heavy, local run where he wouldn't have time to rag firemen or anythin' else but trunks and baby wagons. and the fireman was ordered upstairs.

 '1 recall" said MT. Harvey, he told the Y. M c. A. that good railroad ma tertal was very scarce. and that when the road got the men 1t wanted itl offered them every inducement to-"I
 Don't interrupt" snapped MT. Bolt! ing. And then, as I was sayin. he'd give discipline accordfn. with never al cent to pay. He didn't go much onl finin' ors suspendin'.
 50 he spoke his piece to the fire man and the fireman told him heI wouldn't dare say that to him out onI right there, and the fireman told himI he was too old and too little, andI that he wouldn't hit a one-eyed man anyhow
 Then the boss said things about the Dutch in general and the Prus- sians in partic'lar. and told the fire man he was some other kind of 'fraid cat beside.
 Not hearth nothin' for half an hour, the chief clerk called the opera tor and the private secretary to back him up and open the door.
 Say, it was scand'lous. There was the superintendent of division and the fireman lyin' on the carpet huggin' each other They'd upset every stick of furniture exceptin' the big desk. They'd slammed that into a windowl and swept it clear. The boss's badl eye was knocked clean out of his headl and t'other was shut The firemanl couldn't see out of either of his, neither.

 -But these trusts are simply aw-| full. We voters must get together the next big election" suggested MT. Harvey, wearily reaching for his newspaper
 MT. Bolting quickly transferred it to his own inside pocket

Are Farmers Losing by Pooling Their
Tobacco?

For "a number Of years the farmers
of Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee
have felt the hand Of the oppressor
grasping tighter and tighter, stronger
and stronger, dragging them TO power
tv and ruin, and in self defence and
for self protection they have deter
mined to free themselves by demand
ing, no special privilege, but equal
rights with all other business men,
viz: Pricing and selling their own
goods. Is there anything in this UNI
just OF wrong2
To some, who ON account Of the low
prices Of tobacco, have been forced TO
leave their farms and seek other
positions, to be supported at the eX-
pense Of tine poor farmer, and are
afraid Of losing their job, it may,
from selfish view, appear unjust.
Let me say 10 such friends, cheer up,
and when you are no longer needed to
fll the position you now occupy, we
will gladly welcome you back to the
farm to hold the pillow handles and
drive the old gray mule, and live by
the sweat Of your own brow.
The farmers have been led on year
by year with false promises and de
ceptive assertions as they have proven
10 be beyond any doubt or contradic-
ton. For years we have been told by
the buyers, who are agents Of the to-
bacco trust, MAKE good, long tobacco
and we will pay you higher prices"
They went so far as to measure the
sample with a rule, and If under -
inches long, the price was reduced
about two dollars per hundred. This
wa, an incentive 10 make larger to-
bacco. The ciopof 1905 was large and
leafv. and the market opened with
good prices, why I viii not say)i but
before half Of the crop was sold the
prices ON long tobacco were unreason-
ably low. and We heard the cry, "Ioo
much long tobacco, we want some
short or medium long, and the prices
for the tobacco that the farmers had
been urged TO make, and for which
they had the promise Of better prices
sold from six 70 ten dollars per hun
dred, just enough 10 induce some
farmer to dump their crops on the
warehouse floor. How long will the
farmers allow themselves to be made
slaves for the tobacco trust, at wages
even lower than a common laborer2
