This matter OF drainage is one OF the
most important To the interests of the
county OF any undertaken In recent
years. Nothing, unless il be the care
ful and scientific selection OF seed corn,

1t is y step in the right direction and
will repay the county and the abutting
owners SIS for every dollar Of cost. This
is neither prophecy nor a matter OF
opinion with the editor: we can refer
any farmer or person TO counties in
Illinois where exactly the same policy
was pursued twenty five years ago, and
today land Is selling for double and
tire BILE what IL commanded before drain
age was introduced. We are glad this
matter has bsen taken up vigorously
and systematically. and hope to see i,
still further exte nded. Farmers back
q mile or two in some cases from these
bitches and laterals will tile out their
land into these drains and thus share
richly in the common benefit A com
petent surveyor should be employed In
order to get the proper levels and fine
the best location for all drains. We
expect to see great advancement II

10 VOTE ON MEASURE
 LIMITIKC HOURS OF WORK
SENATE WILL DECIDE QUESTION AFFECTING RAILROAD MEN
 TO-DAY.

Nearly Every Senator Who Has Spoken
 on the Bill Has Suggested Amend-
 ments-LOng Record of Accidents
 Read by MT. La Toilette Showing
 That in All the Trainmen Involved
 Had Been on Duty from Seventeen to
 FOrty-three Hours Continuously.
 Washington, Jan. 9.-In view of the fact that the senate has agreed to vote at o'clock tomorrow on the bill limit ing the hours of service of railway eml- ployes, considerable time was devoted in the senate to-day to that measure and an effort made to add an hour to the beginning of the session to-mor- row. This effort was not successful, and Senator LaFollette, of Wisconsin, gave notice that he would move to take the bill up immediately after routine business tomorrow,
 Senator's Deliver and Brandegee have offered substitutes, and nearly every senator who has spoken on the meas ure has suggested amendments to the measure, so that there are large number pending. The vote on these amendments will be taken before the vote on the bill, but there will be no voting until 8 o'clock tomorrow.
 In support of his contention that the railroads had been very busy since the last session in developing opposition to the bill, MT. LaFollette to-day read set of resolutions, condemning the bill, presented to a lodge of railway em- ployes, the name of which he withheld, by E. T. Lamb, division superintendent of the Southern railway The lodge applied for information on the subject to H. R. Fuller, legislative representa- tive of the railway employees railway organization and had not endorsed the resolutions
 A long record of accidents was read by MT. LaFollette showing that in all the trainmen involved had been on duty from seventeen to forty-three hours continuously,
 When the forty- three-hour record was given Senator Beveridge wanted to know the road on which the accident had occurred, He said he was shocked, as he believed every other senator was, that any road would Keep man on I duty forty-three hours.
 Senator LaFollette said for obvious reasons he would not give the name ot the road, and explained that 1t deyel- oped that in many cases the men them- selves were responsible for the long hours.

CORBETT BADLY WALLOPED
RECEIVES SEVERE BEATING AT
 TOMMY MURPHY,S HANDS.

From the First to the Sixth Round the
 Former Champion is OutfOught at All
 Stages-Sound of the Gong Saves Him
 Round--very Tired Toward the End.
 Philadelphia, Jan. 9.-Tommy Murphy of New York gave Young Corbett se- were beating in six round bout before the National Athletic club tonight. From the first to the sixth round Mur- phy outfought the former champion at all stages. In the second round only the sound of the bell saved Corhett from knockout. Murphy simply rained blows on the former Denver fighter, and near the close of the round sent Corbett to the floor with a right to the jaw When Corbett rose Mur- phy kept after him, sending lefts and rights to the face and body. When the gong sounded Corbett was hanging on the ropes in practically helpless con dition. The one minute rest brought him back In fairly good condition, but Murphy gave him no opportunity to rest, and drove Corbett from one side of the ring to the other, landing on tho face and body almost at will Corbett got an occasional blow to the kidneys and neck, but they lacked force. In the third round Corbett tried the tac- tics he worked upon McGovern so suc- cessfully in their two championship battles. He began to hur1 epithets at the New Yorker, which were inteded to "rattle" Murphy. The latter simply smiled and drove two rights to the jaw with such force that Corbett forgot to talf.
 The fourth, fifth and sixth rounds l were repetitions of the third.
 Corbett tired perceptibly in the clos ing rounds, and was simply a mark for the younger and better conditioned fighter Murphy's condition was per feet, but it is probable that Corbett would have tipped the beam close to 140 pounds. He was slow and wild and outclassed in boxing, hitting and ring generalship.
