the best that could be devised for
Denison. A line parsllelinR the
steam lines down the Boyer valley
would be Of little use. whereas q
line running northwest either to
Schleswig or Kiron. thence to Battle
Creek and on to Sioux City, would
open up new territory and would give
q new impetus to trade.
Should such line be continued
southeast to Manning and from that
city continued on to connect with the
Des Mvines line. Denison would bene-
ct, still more largely. A route to
Manning would give shipping facilities
to the rich agricultural SCI tions Of
Hays. Iowa and East Boyer townships
and would bring to Denison much
trade which now goes to other towns.
There is no question but that an In

all lands adjacent or in the immediate
vicinity. Lands which now sell TO,

Good housewives consider cleanliness

Oats is their choice among all oatmeals'
In making Quaker Oats the grain is
sifted and resifted, passing through more
than fifty processes Of cleaning before i
is cooked and rohed.
If you took handful of oats and
scrubbed and polished and wiped each
separate grain, it wouldn't then be nearly
as clean as Quaker Oats. No human

and other diseases. No one will con-
tend that the city is beautified by the
waste paper. the old boxes and the
tin cans that can be found in every

does not dispose Of the garbage. We
cannot dump the garbage in the river

those living lower down the stream and
no particular section Of the city wants
to be the dumping ground.
The condi ion in the uptown dis.
t,icts is the worst Of all. We have
no criticism to offer for we realize
that the city officials are "ur
against it" as badly as the property
owners, but it is matter which
deserves some level headed action.
We would suggest that the city buy
paper baling machine and donate
the use of it to any man who will
gather up the waste paper from the
business houses and from the streets
AS to other garbage some sort of {
crematory should be built.

HOPE TO AVERT
A COAL STRIKE
Despite FauItIess Conference Between
Operators and Representatives
of Miners, Situation is Re-
sarded as Hopeful.
MODIFY
PROPOSITION
Miners Representatives Prevent Mod
flied Proposition, Carrying
Recognition of Union,
in Different Form.

PHILADELPHIA, April-At the
conclusion of two hours conference
between the operators and representa-
tiyes of the anthracite coal miners,
which terminated late yesterday after
noon, both sides seem as far from an
ultimate solution of the working CON
ditions governing the hard coal fields
as ever The miners representatives
presented a modified proposition. In
this new proposal the miners agree
to the renewal of the recently expired
wage agreement, with few changes.
These changes include the restora-
tion of the wages of those miners that
have been reduced; the right to hire
and discharge to be vested exclusively
in the mine manager or operator and
that there will be no suspesion of
operation during the adjustment OF the
difference.
No statement was given out by the
operators, and it is not known how
they view the proposition of the min
ers, carrying as it does the recogni-
ton of the union, in different form
than originally presented.
Notwithstanding the fact that sew
eral mine workers officials assert
that an agreement is not probable at
the present time, the belief prevails
taan an amicable settlement will c
reached.
