ASSAULTS SICK BROTHER
Whiting Police Establish
Peace in Tomka
Family.
Especial to THE T1MEsl

Whiting, Ind, Sept. 23.-Mike and
John Tomko, two brothers, who re-
side in Fred street had serious quar-
rel last evening, which came nearly re-
sulting in a serious manner.
Mike Tomko has been ill for several
weeks with typhoid fever and is just
sbarely able to get around again His
brother coming home from work, saw
him sitting at the table eating his
supper.
During the evening meal a quarrel
was instituted during which John said
his brother gould not sit at the table
with him unless he paid his board the
same as he did.
Makes an Assault.
After saying this he snatched a ia
BILE knife and threatened to kill him.
The father at this time interfered
in Mikes behalf. the boy being too
weak to even think of holding his own
again his strong and healthy brother.
The whole neighborhood was thrown
into a state of excitement and a hurry
up call was sent into the police sta
ton.
By the time the officers arrived on
the scene the family had fixed up mat
ters between themselves. but it is
feared the excitement will be the
caus of Mike having another relapse.

The Best Friend.

A good man is the best friend, and
therefore soonest to be chosen, longer
to be retained, and indeed, never to
be parted with, unless he cease to be
that for which he was chosen.-Jere-

Scale Is satirfactorx.

The above shows that the laborers
received the scale which they asked
for and in return made several CON
cessions which will prove valuable to
the contractors. Besides the clause
in which they are prevented from strik-
ing on their own voIition, and that they
must arbitrate their troubles, the con-
tractors were permitted to hire any kind
of la oorers, at any scale for the nm
loading of material from cars, or any
work which is not a part of the actual
building construction. In other words
only laborers In actual construction
work are included in the agreement
When NOn-union Men Are Permissible
In order to provide against a Job be-
ing tied up through scarcity of union
labor, the contractor may secure nom
union men if union men are not avail
able He will be forced to always give
the latter preference however, and if
there are any that can be secured they
must be employed. One of the reasons
Tor the recent lockout the contractors
have declared, is because there have
not been enough good union men for
a II of the contractors to hire.
Activity in Building Line.
The agreement which was reached
will mean that the laborers who are
now on the jobs of the members Of
the contractors, association, where they
were put, pending the result of this
conference. will be kept on the jobs for
the remainder of the fall and winter
building construction, now is as active
as it ever was before and business men
as well as the parties involved are
gratif1ed at the result. There are AZ
members of the contractors association
so that the agreement yesterday, will
effect most of the contractors in the
city.

WAGE SCALE SECTION
IS SATISFACTORY
Contractors May Go Out Side of I'm
ions to Hire Laborers Not Directly
Connected in the Erection of
Buildings-conference Lasts Five
Hours.

The lockout of the laborers is now
ended. as a written agreement was
signed last night by the parties in the
conference, representing the laborers,
and the contractors association The
conference lasted nearly five hours. as
each section of long agreement was
gone over paragraph by para graph un-
til every clause was satisfactory to
both parties. In the matter of the
wage scale the most important point
of contention the laborers got all that
they asked for
Holds Until May lat First. 1902
The contract signed was up to the
first of May, 1909, and provides that
in the future all difficulties bhtween
the two organizations should be ar
bitrated, and that the laborers, cannot
go out on a strike, unless called out
by the Lake County Trades Council on
a sympathetic strike When they have
trouble which applies to their own
union. however, the matter must be
settled by arbitration
The following is the section of the
agreement dealing with the wage
scale:

the licensing Of the liquor traffic.
OF course there were some men who
would have profted financially by the
Introduction Of the Louisiana lottery
into this state, and whose motives could
be judged accordingly-but here again
the parallel follows in the liquor bust
ness. But the great majority were hon.
estly favorable because they thought it
the best and only way out.
The files of the Pioneer Express show
that it was against the lottery for two
reasons, first because it was wrong in
itself, and second because we did not be-

we believe today in the matter of the

MEMORIAL DAY.

Memorial Day occurs this year on
Saturday, May 30th. It is the earnest
wish Of the q. A. II. as whole and of
the veterans personally, that memorial
exercises Of some kind be held in every
public::school Of the land. The perpetu-
ation:of this beautiful and patriotic GUS
tom for the future lies with the younger
generation. All the lines Of civilization
and education center in the words stGod,
home and native land" The perpetua-
tion Of this nation depends on the love
Of country that may be- developed in the
coming generations. A good citizen Is
necessarily q patriot. And this not only
in war but in peace. "For peace hath
also lts victories that are equally great
as those Of war. II lis not that we want
to teach the boys to be soldiers like
their fathers, but that they shall be
good and home loving citizens. That
onIlearned the stern necessities Of
war will follow, for . man will always be
willing to aght for tho protection of
those he loves. The lessons Of Memorial
Day arc not only . tribute to the dead,
but more than all. love for the living.

UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER

The Times of last week gives out the
terms on which ''harmony" may be pur-
chased by the stalwarts at the Minot
convention and thereafter. The terms
are very simple, like those of the other
General Grant, unconditional surren-
der" The assumption is that otherwise
the progressives will continue to pro-
gress towards and into the democratic
party just as they did two years ago.
Every progressive paper in the state is
scofflng at the idea of "harmony'' in the
party. They evidently don't want har-
mony. They want to fight. That is the
only possible manner in which their
leaders can get to be bosses. And if
they fail IN the latter they can at least
get even with the other fellows and the
party and party principles be id.
While the stalwarts would be willing to
compromise, yet we doubt il they will
ever consent tcfollew such men as now
assume to the leadership of the pro-
gressive faction-and they are too much
men to be willing to stultify themselves
by declaring that every voter who ever
supported Alex. Mckenzie or any of his
candidates has always been in favor of
railroad domination, boss rule, and up
holding the methods of political trick
ster, etc. The progressives, who all
have been in the same company in the
years past, every time they pass their
revolutionary resolutions seem to have
no shame in thus condemning their own
past history, but the ordinary stalwart
still has some pride left-and it might
be possible that he will finally take the
progressives at their word-and accept
the gage Of battle as laid down by them
with the same alternative. to-wit: vote
for democrat in preference to a pro-
gressive.

wHIsKEY vs.. LOTTERY.

Prohibition don't prohibit. A man
has right to eat and drink what he
pleases. The constitution guarantees
personal liberty. Money paid for licenses
supports the government. Saloons help
business and attract trade to town.
Blind pigs sell more and worse liquor
than do licensed saloons" These are a
few of the oft repeated arguments that
are heard IN the defense Of the license
system of selling liquor. Undoubtedly
there are very many really good and
well meaning people who believe in
these reasons more or less. The latter
statement is that to which we would
call attention at this time That is
that there are, so many people who know
that the sale Of liquor is an evil and
that prohibition would be benefit, but
believe it impossible to prohibit and
therefore desire it regulated.
