men are voting on a proposition to
strike, which would be equivalent TO
tying up the transportation lines be.
tween the Mississippi river and the
Pacific coast, entailing an enormous
loss upon the business interests of the
entire western country.
Under a federal law Of 1898, pro.
vision is made for the submission of
such disputes to arbitration. The law
provides that where disputes arise be-
tween a railroad company and its EN-.
ployes. seriously i~nterrupting or
threatening to interrupt the business
of such railroad" either party may
appeal to the Interstate commerce CON.
mission for u board Of arbitration, to
be composed of three members, one
to be selected by the employees, one by
the railroad and the third by the com
mission. 1t Is provided that in such
cases the men shall return to work
and the adjustment of wages Or other
questions in dispute, when the findings
are made by the arbitration board,
shall be effective from the date Of the
submission of arbitration.
While the findings of arbitration
boards are seldom completely salts
factory to either party in the contro.
versy, the provisions of the federal
law on the subject appear to be emf.
nently fair and should be invoked more
frequently In labor disputes. One i'm.
portant case is now pending before an
arbitration board created under this
law, being the controversy between the
| Southern Pacific railroad company and
its tele~graphers. The t~elegraphers
struck for increased pay and better
working hours, but returned to work
when, at the request of the company,
the machinery of the federal arbitra'
ton law was put into operation for a
settlement OF the differences between
them and the company. Both bodies
agree to abide by the decision of the
board for at least one year.
With the entire country demanding
more cars, with freight yards con
gested and with business accommodating
at every shipping point, the CONNER
cial and industrial interests of the ma
ton would deplore a strike of the
trainmen, and would urge that the diff
~ferences be submitted for solution tc

For golden mousse beat well the

full of pure maple syrup, and cook,
stirring constantly until the mixture
makes a thick coating on the spoon.
Remove from the fire. add three table
%spoonfuls Of sweet orange juice and
one-half tablespoonful of lemon juice,
beating until the mixture becomes
light and cold. Beat the whites of
four eggs to a stif froth. with a
pinch of salt, and pour slowly into
them two tablespoonfuls Of boiling
syrup cooked to the stringy stage.
Add this to the yolks, put the two

The suggestions Of Councilmen Han
sen and %Schwatke, looking to the i'm
provement of the sidewalks and the
adjustment of awnings. were both time
iy and good. Both questions eed the
urgent attention OF the council and the
street and alley committee can do a
good work by looking into the matter
thoroughly. Not only should there be
a grade line for sidewalks but the
scores of sidewalks about town which
have been allowed to go to rack should
be looked after and the owners COM
PEELED to give them needed attention.
AS regards awnings, they should be
placed high enough SC that people pas,
sing under them neeo not stoop t.
avoid striking them. There are avn.
ings about the city, n or two on
Thornburgh street in particular, which
should have attention. These hang SO
low that 1t is impossible to pass under
them without being swished by the
flaps on the sides and ends and this
is extremely ~disagreeable, especially on
a rainy day. Let the committee get
busy, for there is much work that can
be done.

Widows exist in all countries. hu

cadence which might otherwise result
from timid men. Widows are clinging
by temperament and attach them
selves readily to any object that can't

In many countries to be kissed by a
widow mean endless trouble. Wild

children, whose number is constantly
liable to increase. They roam at large
over the principal sections. and no
