Illinois Coal Miners.

The general summary of coal pro-
duction, etc, in Illinois for the year
ending June 80 1906, submitted by
bureau of labor statistics, shows the
total output of all mines in the state
for the year TO have been 3S,317 ,5S1
tons, with an aggregate home value of
$39.S95,S0 The average number of
miners employed during the year was
1920 and the total employees at the
1,01S mines 62,2S3. These and other
statistics show how vast the coal in
dustry of Illinois is.
The annual convention of the mine
workers is matter of vital Importance
TO the state These miners and what
they achieve in the industrial world
are one of the most gigantic working
forces in the progress of the state
That the present democratic city ad
ministratiOn should have let itself get
so tangled in ring rule, says the Spring
field Register, as TO let this great an
Gual convention go to Peoria for 1908
merely because of lack of interest such
as should have. inspired at least an in
vitation for the convention to remain
in Springfield, is quite significant OF
what real interest these scheming par
Ity bosses really have in this city un
less it pertains to matters in which
there is something lin it, for them.
The United Mine Workers organiza
ton is one of the greatest and best
working labor organizations in the
world, and worthy of every possible
consideration.

Victim Ofthe CiSarct.

A student in Lake Forest university
has been detected in burglarizing the
summer homes of Hobart Chatfield Tay-
lor and Robert G. Mccain and stealing
therefrom curios and bric-a-brac to the
amount of $1,000. He is the son of a
prosperous attorney of Kokomo, Ind.
He is cigaret smoker, and evidently
to this fact he owes his downfall. He
entered college as freshman in 1905,
but his scholarship record fell SO far
below the requirements that he was
sent home. Last fall his father sent
him back, but he could not keep up
with the studies and he was dismissed
again. Since that time he has loafel
about town. He entered the houses
with an ordinary pocket knife, cutting
the panels from the front doors, put
ting in his hand and pushing back the
spring lock. The father of the young
student is in Chicago trying to make
it appear that the youth is under the
mysterious influence of an automobile
driver
1t is, however, as the Peoria Stal
says, evident to anyone who knows the
evil effects of cigarets that the lads
brain has given way under the insidi
Gus drug and that he mas become g
criminal because he first became a de
generate This is only one case out OF
so many.
Here is a young life ruined, and nc
effort that can be made will ever re
store him to his former self. The truth
| is that the cigaret habit is infinitely
worse than any other that youths are
liable to. A boy fully under the dom
ination of this vice is utterly worth
less. There is little hope for him.

Is Not Surpassed.

J. S. Lawrence, who is i'll Nermilion.

farm is the most northerly i'll the
world. He exhibits with considerab bic
pride sample of No. l Northern
wheat which he grew on his farm at
Peace River Crossing. Grain dealers
say that for quality this wheat is not
surpassed.
Mr. Lawrence had unique trip to
Vermilion. having travelled some 800
miles by dog sled to get a years sup
plies. says a dispatch to the New York
Times For the greater part of the
way he came down the Peace river
and reports it very rough travelling on
account of the heavy snowfall. With a
trail to his farm he says that some of
the best wheat land in the Canadian
northwest would be opened up de-
spite the fact that it is some 1.500
miles north of the international bound
airy and in a country which has al
WAYS been considered valuelesS by the
few trappers and voyageurs who have
visited the district.

Lawrence's farm to Vermiion is 2S3

Public Loses Services of Good Man

The public lost the services of a
good man in the declaration of Alder.
man Frank Blochlinger of the First
ward not to stand for denomination

that added responsibilities in a bus
mess way precluded the possibility of
his continuing longer in public office
at this time. And Mr.. Blochlinger IS
the kind of a man who will undertake
nothing unless ne can give it the best
that is in him. He would not assume
the burden of looking after the tax
payers interests unless he felt thai
he could give in return the full meas
ure due. 1t is this strict sense of duty.
of conscientious devotion to public
welfare that has made him one of the
most representative and influential
men who ever sat in the council cham

man has been attended by expires

HAS BUILT TOWN
FOR EMPLOYEES
Pennsylvania Railroad Has
Made Provision for
Freight Men at
Enola Yards.
Special to The Journal.

Harrisburg, ia, Jan. 10--To make
homes for the 100 men employed IN
the EnOla freight yards, the Pennsyl-
Yania Railroad has built d town to
order. 1t has sprung up as If In
night Across the SuSQuehanna from
this place, where nothing but bare
hills could be seen while ago, there
are now a hundred dwellings, designed
by the leading architects of the coun-
try, a picturesque Inn, trees, wide
paved streets, a school, electric lights,
water works-everything a modern
city dweller could ask for.
Other industrial towns like Pull
man, Illinois, have grown up gradual
ly. Enola has. almost literally, been
built complete before it had a single
resident.
When the Pennsylvania Railroad es-
tablished its Enola freight yard in
connection with the new low grade
route from Pittsburg east, it was met
by the question: Where Will the work
men live? The town of Enola, is an
answer to this question which means
that too much cannot be done in order
to secure the physical well-being of
P R R employees.
F'oTty-four houses we're begun at the
Sdiiie IlllSs tnSA Htty -SlA HOISr HON
another half hundred have been
started. Eventually it is the idea that
every house with its grounds will be
owned by the man who lives in it.
and nobody but PENNSYLVANIA Railroad
men can reside there The houses

, chaser pays no profit or interest eX

company assumed to finance the IN.
