SILLY ATTACK ON JUDGE
TAYLOR.

A person signing himself "A Tax
payer. " evidently not having the nerve
to sign his name, but whose name can
easily be guessed tells the Transcript
that Judge Taylor did wrong in fixing
County Attorney Cameron's salary at
$780, and slurs the judge by saying
that if he were a Morrison County
taxpayer he would not have ordered
the increase. This dirty insinuation
went hurt Judge Taylor or the
County Attorney ND. Taylor IS a
just and fearless judge. He better
than anyone, has had opportunities to
watch Mr.. Cameron's work, and has
found it worthy of approval. Mr..
Cameron did not ask the judge to set
the amount Of salary. Judge Taylor
simply did what he thought was right,
and no one who knows him can
imagine anything else. He does not
allow spite. personal prejudice or
partisansh1p to influence his judicial
work. Some commissioners should
take lessons from him along those
lines.

CINE last Saturday night and forced

Torgensen because of several peculiar
tiles in his physical makeup He also
declared that he was equally sure
about Woods. Several school children
also identified all the prisoners as
men they had seen in the vicinity of
the Brown Park school Sunday and
Monday. A laborer living near the
scene of the holdup identified two of
the suspects as men he had seen ex-
aiming the ground in that vicinity a
day or two before the robbery.

Street Car Mon Ordered Out.

Philadelphia, May 29.--Altho a glsas.
eral strike order has been issued to
conductors and motormen of the Phn-
adelphia Rapid Transit Company py
the executive committee OF the street
car mems union, to take effect at D.
m. today, the order has not generally
been observed. Cars were running in
all sections of the city The servica.
however. was somewhat curtailed
During tho morning there was some
disorder of minor character reported
from different sections OF the city.
Strike sympathizers hurled jibea at
those that were riding, and many pas
sengers left the cars. In some In
stances cars were abandoned by their
crews. Service to the center Of tn.
city was fairly good except from out-
lying sections. The company an
nounced this afternoon TINT 1850 men
who failed to report for duty or ADAM
doned their cars had been discharged
and their places will be filled by new
men The company announced that
there viii be no compromise and that
1t VIII not recognize the union.
While there has been agitation
among the men for higher wages ana
better conditions 1t was not generally
believed radical action would be taken
as the union organization Is not be-.
lieved strong enough to carry on
strike. The strike was fastened thru
the action of the company In raising
the wages OF the men cent per hour
from 81 to % cents, to go into effect
July !. Prior 20 the announcement OF
the increase In wages the company
became the storm center of q general
protest by abollshing six-for- quarter
tickets and adopting the straight cent
fare rate.
AS the move To change the rate of
fare was very unpopular among tho
street car riders. the union leaders took
advantage of the situation and began
agltating an increase in wages and
better conditions Leaders OF the un-
ion called upon John b. Parsons, pres
ident OF the company, but ne refused
TO see them. saying he would only
treat with the employees OF the com.
pany. The committee wanted to lay
before him demands which included q
request for % cents per hour nine or
ten hours straight work, the privilege
of buying uniforms in the open mar
ket and adjustment of minor griev.
ances. The company employed approx.
imaiely $500 motormen and conducts
ors, and 1t Is claimed by the company
that not more than ono sixth of these
are affiliated with the organization. On
the other hand the union leaders say
the union has q membership Of a.

Sundays sermon on popular amuse-
ments, the theater, cards and dancing,
at the tabernacle Friday night. Ex-
pecting to hear something sensational,
were drawn to the big wooden build
ing by the sermon for the first time
during Sundays five weeks stay.
At times during the two and one

The evangelist spared no one In his
denunciation of the things of which he
spoke. but in opening said that this
sermon was the only one that he re-
GREETED to deliver. "But as long as
these things exist I shall preach
against them in the plainest way I
know how" he declared.
Things Of the Devil.
He characterized the theater, cards.
and dancing as institutions of the dew
II. The majority, of plays, he declared
were immoral in their tendencies, and
many of them Haunted in the faces
of the audiences which witnessed them
the baser passions of men and women
OF cards he said that the fact that
they led men to crime and put them in
the penitentiary was sufficient evil
dence Of them being tools of the devil.
He numerically scored the bridge
whist players and others who play for
prizes He declared such persons were
not one whit better than the man who
"sat In" on a, Jackpot, at in the
morning. With vitriolic words he de-
nounced the church members who
played cards, or taught the young to
play in their homes.
Dance Ruins Girls.
Passing to the dance he said it was
the cause of more girls being ruined
than all other things put together. He
made It plain that he did not say that
the dance ruined every one, but he
said II was liable to and especially was
It liable to be the place of downfall
for girls. He said of the two, dancing
and the saloon, he would prefer the sa-
loon as the ruin it wrought was less
than that which sprung out of the
dance hall. OF the dancing master he
declared he was a greater source OF
evil than the saloon keeper
Sixty-Five Converted.
Mr.. Sunday was worn out and COM
pletely fatigued when he started, and
his WEAKNESS was plainly evidenced by
his manner Of delivery. But when he
became thoroughly warmed and
aroused to his subject no one would
have known he was so tired he could
hardly stand. and on his nervous ener-
gy alone he lambasted, flayed, swung
at and jabbed with hot words those
who dance. play. cards and go to the
theatre.
Before he began he did not expect
