LABOR LEADER PLANS
FIGHT AGAINST CANNON
Gompers Will Place John n. Walker
President of the Illinois Miners,
On Democratic Ticket.

Chicago, July 24-Samuel Gompers.
president of the American Federation
of Labor, is preparing to put up a
fight against Speaker Cannon. Two
years ago the labor men endorsed John
H. Walker, president of the Illinois
miners, who made the race against
Speaker Cannon, but they made poor
showing from the fact that Walker ran
on the socialist ticket. This time they
intend to unite on democrat, and will
flood the district with spellbinders
during the campaign with the hope OF
reducing Mr.. Cannon's plurality if they
cannot defeat him. E. n. Nockels, Sec
rotary of the Chicago Federation OF
Labor, has been down through the dis.
trict as the agent of President Com
pers. He has looked over the ground
and reported to Gompers that in his
opinion Mr. Cannon is not as invincible
as he was two years ago. Grant Ham
! ilton, an organizer for the American
Federation of Labor, is now stationed
in the district, with the object of see
| ing that a candidate who can be sup
ported by organized labor is nominated
on the democratic ticket. The district
| is strongly republican, but in Vermil
ion county the miners are all organ
Iized, and special efforts will be made
to swing their votes against Cannon.

THREE ARE KILLED
Terrific Electrical Wind Storm
Strikes State Guard Camp
of Pennsylvania.
WERE STRUCK BY LIGHTNING
Storm Does Much Damage on Historic
Grounds Near Gettysburg
Hospital Tent Filled. II

Gettysburg. Pa, July 24.-The all
night search throughout Camp Hayes,
where 10000 men of the national
guard of Pennsylvania are in camp
and which last night was visited by
terrific electrical wind storm, shows
three soldiers struck dead by light
ming and nearly so other persons in
jCred by electrical bolts or otherwise
hurt. 1t was probably the widest
night the historic ground has expert
enced since the memorable July days
of 1868. Cots in the hospital tent
are filled with injured, some of whom
are women and children who had been
visiting the camp
Governors Guests Buried Under Canvas.
The tent which Governor Stuart had
been occupying during the weeks en-
campment was blown down by the
terrific wind and the governor and his
guests were buried under the canvas.
None, however, were injured.
The storm which has been brewing
ell evening broke suddenly. The
wind blew with almost cyclonic
force. rain came down in torrents and
the lightning was the most severe
seer here in years.
Many Visitors in Camp.
The camp contained many visitors
who had been delayed by the jollifica-
tions which always take place in the
camp the night before the regents
leave for home. Everywhere tents
collapsed, lightning bolts striking in
many places. For time utter con
fusion reigned but as the storm
passed off the commanders of the
several regiments brought about order
AID began systematic search for the
injured guardsmen. AS rapidly as
they were found they were removed
to the hospital tent and given atten-
ton by the regmental surgeons as
sisted by physicians summoned from
Gettysburg.
Trolley Line Out of Business.
The trolley line between the camp
ground and the town was put out of
service by the storm and many visit
ors were compelled to spent the re-
mainder of the night in the Y. NJ. c.
Il. tent. Among them were children
who almost went into Mysteries dur
| ing the height of the furious storm.

to the formation OF a thick, pasty
mud; but II is the only practicable
way in which the necessary mixing
can be accomplished. Many expert

been more less unsuccessful In cases
where the plowing and narrowing are
considered too expensive the mixing
may be left to traffic. This, however,
inevitably leads to a muddy road sur
face for a long time although finally
IL is possible, by a proper distribution
Of the sand upon the clay, to bring
about a fairly good result, even By
this simple method
In case a shaking clay is used, very
much less pudding is required, as
there are practically no Jumps to be
broken up and the mixing can easily
be done with a harrow after a rain
SHAKING clays do not usually make as
effective binders as the more plastic
clays; therefore in dry weather the
road surface becomes more dusty. It
will be seen that the best clay for
this kind Of construction is one which
slakes sufficiently easily to enable the
Jumps to be readily broken up, and
which at the same time, without being
too plastic. has sufficient binding pow
er to cement the grains of sand and
form a smooth, impervious surface on
the road. Clays of this nature which
have given excellent results are found
in abundance in many Of the southern
states and doubtless exist elsewhere.
Their color is usually red or mottled
red and white. Occasionally clays are
found sufficiently sandy to be suitable
for use without further mixing. When
this is the case It is only necessary
to spread the material on the road
and allow it to pack under traffic. II
is obvious that 1t is necessary to pay
careful attention to the physical prop
critics Of the available clay in the
neighborhood of the road, as 1t will
frequently be found economical to haul
good material for some distance rath-
er than use an inferior material which
is close at hand. The qualities to be
