WILL CLOSE THE
SMALL STATIONS
Wabash Railroad Company
Presents UItimatum to
Commerce Commission.

Washington, Feb. pa proposition
very serious to many thousands of peO-
pie residing at and in the vicinity of
small railroad stations throughout the
country is presented to the Interstate
commerce commission in an Informal
petition in which the Wabash Railroad
company asks for an extension of the
time of the going into effect of the
nine-hour law, which applies to rail-
way employees who have the direction
of movements of trains 1t is declared
in the petition that unless the order of
extension is made, either by the COM
mission or by congress, the only alter
native will be closing of a large num-
Ter of stations on the Wabash railroad.
Good Operators Scarce.
1t is pointed out in the petition that
in order to comply with the provisions
of the law, the company would have TO
employ an additional telegraph oper-
ator at each of 240 stations on this line.
Thus far the company says that it has
not been able to secure the services Of
efficient and competent operators in
such numbers as will enable it to COM
ply with the act.
Other railway companies have taken
substantially the same ground as the
Il
inability to secure a sufficient number
of competent telegraph operators to
man their wires as the law after the
4th of March will require.
viii Close Small Stations.
1t is pointed out that in complying
with the law their only recourse will be
the transfer of operators now in
their employ to stations of greater i'm
portance and larger traffic, thus prac-
tically closing many small stations
where now the operator performs the
duty of ticket agent, freight agent and
telegrapher.
The seriousness of tt situation pre-
scented by the railroads is realized fully
by the interstate commerce commits
sion, which will endeavor- to reach
some satisfactory adjustment before
the laws became operative.

Lynch Forces Overwhelmingly
Defeated in Fight in County
Convention
Warren NJ. John Wins in Pri-

Final Fray
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

SAN LUIS OBISPO, Aug. 17.-That
San Luis Obispo intends to wear the
machine yoke no longer was clearly
demonstrated at the republican county
convention held here today. when the
Lynch forces were overwhelmingly de-
feated at every point and the opposition
republicans carried all before them.
The primary elections held last
Tuesday to appoint delegates to the
senatorial convention gave Warren NJ.
John a majority of 225 over Henry W.
Lynch, but the latter's friends planned
to stampede the convention today in an
effort to offset the defeat.
The tactics were futile, however. DR..
]. II. Glass, the leader of the Lynch
forces in Paso Robles, and John H Eu-
banks, who occupies a similar position
in Cambria, the two towns that favored
Lynch, lost everything.
w. E. Hixon. a John man, was elected
chairman of the convention in opposi-
tion to Eubanks by SO to so. All the
motions made by DR.. Glass were de-
feated, including that of Thomas A.
Norton for superior judge, who was
considered a sure winner until DR..
Glass placed him in nomination, and
S. " Wright received the nomination
by vote of SO to 81.
! Louis F. Sinsheimer, another John
man, was nominated for the assembly.
The three supervisors were nominated
as follows: Ed Cliff of Paso Robles,
Neils Johnson of Templeton and Antoine
Luchessa of San Luis Obispo. The
convention indorsed the candidacy of
S. C. Smith for congress, the Roosevelt
administration and William H. Taft for
president.

POWERS OF THE PRESIDENT
Burke Tells Harm Bryan Gould
Do if Elected

NEW SALEM, H., Aug. 17.-Con-
gressman James Francis Burke of
Pittsburg delivered an address at a re-
publican day celebration here today
on The Powers of the President" He
said in part:
The American people can make greater
mistake than 10 elect Bryan on the assumption
that he can do no harm in the face of an ad-
verse senate. As between the legislative and
executive deparfments of the government the lat
ter has infinitely ggeater power to rule and ruin
than the former.
Taft and Bryan are wholly different types Ct
men. Each possesses a strong character which
would certainly assert itself in the White House.
Taft has proven Il on the bench, in the Philip
pines in Cuba in Panama and in the general
councils Of the cabinet. and in manner reflect
ing honor on his country.
Bryan has proven ii in the possession of a
political and partisan persisteney rarely If ever
eQuaed in history.
What either Of these men would do during A
four years term in the White House is causing
much anxiety among thoughtful Americans.
One president established a protectorate ard
raised the flag over Hawaii Another withdrew
the papers from the senate. pulled down the
flag and withdrew the military forces whose pro-
lection his predecessor had guaranteed to an
island which is now American territory and on
which we are now establishing the greatest
naval base in the world.
What Bryan would do with the Philippines
under similar circumstances is difficult to de-
termine.
