Chicago. March 1.-THE contro.
Versy which has been under discus
sion for more than six weeks involves
forty-seven railroads operating west,
northwest and southwest of Chicago,
and embraces about 10000 miles of
railroads.
1t has previously been stated by
both sides that IL strike were called
1t would tie up practically every
freight and passenger train between
Chicago and the Pacific coast.
THE strike has been called-that
much is certain" said Mr.. Carter. ut
means that not only $4,000 firemen.
members of our union, will go out, but
that perhaps many more employees
will be thrown out in consequence.
I'VE gave our ultimatum to the rail-
roads that the men had voted to strike
and that we are prepared to call one
unless we were granted arbitration of
all questions in dispute. The railroads
wage question.
AT midnight tonight we decided 1t
was useless TO parlev further with the
railroad managers. We adopted reso-
luton calling strike. Owing to the
lateness Of the hour and in order that
the men would not go out in confusion
and not knowing the true state of af-
fairs, we agreed to wait until tomor-
row before telegraphing the order"
Chairman w. c. Nixon. on behalf OF
the railroad managers. issued the fol.
lowing statement:
"The railroads have not received the
answer OF the firemen's committee.
Consequently we hesitate to make
comment. But IL does not seem rea.
sonable that strike will be ordered
in the face OF offered arbitration. The
railroads offered to arbitrate the wage
question January eth and this offer
still holds good.
"In case the firemen's reply is to the
effect that n strike will be called the
railroads will invoke the aid OF the
Erdman act through the chairman OF
the Interstate Commerce Commission
and the Commissioner OF Labor in
Washington to prevent the labor lead
ers from carrying out their threat"

Washington.-On Tuesday the Pres.
ident issued a proclamation calling
upon all citizens of the country to
lend their aid toward making the cur.
rent census a success.
The text of the proclamation fol-
lows:
BY the President of the United States
Of America.
A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, BY the Act Of Congress
approved July I'd, 1909, the Thirteenth
Decennial Census of the United States
is to be taken. beginning on the fif-
teenth day of April. nineteen hundred
and ten; and
Whereas, A correct enumeration Of
the population every ten years is re-
quired by the Constitution Of the
United States for the purpose of deter
mining the representation of the sew
eral states in the House of Represen-
tatives; and
Whereas, 1t is of the utmost impor-
tance to the interests of all the people
OF the United States that this census
should be complete and accurate re-
port of the population and resources
OF the country:
Now, therefore. |, William Howard
Taft, President of the United States
Of America, do hereby declare and

said, it is the duty of every person to
answer all questions on the census
schedules applying to him and the

THE BOYS GLORIOUS FOURTH
OF JULY AND IOCKJAW.

Though strong public sentiment has
been steadily created in opposition to
former inhuman methods of celebra-
ton. and in their place substituted
pagents, paradcs, picnic, mass singing
of national airs, popular choral sng-
ing etc, yet our city council have
decreed that the boys shoulr have
their fun. 1t is we'll, however, to
call the attention of the Board of
Health to this condition, that they
had better keep open house, and pro-
vide anti-tetanus serum. The danger
of lockjaw and most cases of fourth
of July tetanus, come about through
the use of blank cartridges in toy
pistols. and the giant fire-crackers,
the germ of the tetanus being In
troduced through abrasions or slight
wounds of the skin, face hands, feet
etc, the bacillus gains entrance gen
orally with particles of dirt not no.
ticeable at the time. The incubation
period being about five days, in which
time the toxines or poisonous pro-
ducts of the germs are disseminated
in the blood and before the dreadful
suffering develops
AS alluded to before, all over this
country, sane and humane citizens.
and societies of various kinds have
given their best endeavers to prevent
these annual preventabcl deaths and
suffering among our young people by
providing form of celebration of
the great national holiday as mention
ed above, every whit as patriotic.
While at the same time the child
ren's lives are saved by Il.
Let the parents remind the bows
and girls early regarding the blank
cartridge the cannon, the giant fire.
cracker, and abstain from using them.
During the past seven years 794
deaths from tetanus have occurred.
these deaths could and would have
oeeh prevented, had we been fully
alien to the lurking danger.
II Is to be hoped that the citizens
or Marion generally will help to dim
ihish this annual outrage in our COM
munity, and help ultimately to eradi-
cate these noisy and inhuman met
hods of celebration.
Not only the above mentioned con-
ditlons of lockjaw occur but as well
numerous Injuries to the eyes, mostly
ol very grave character. During
the past 26 years of my professional
work In this community, anywhere
from TWO to ten eye injuries have
