den Board had instructed Judge
Towery to vote for you and
Thompson and myself for re-
election?
Il heard as much, but have
never been furnished with the
official proceedings of that meet
ing"
well you know now we three
were endorsed by the Critten-
den County Board, and for one
am deeply grateful for that ex-
preston of confidence and the,
more so since | have been the
target of slanderous tongues in
other sections of the district. "
''You should reflect" | re-
piled, 1T is the men who do
things who are criticised. And
men VITO do big things inevita-
bly, commit errors. 1t seems to
me your slanderers would feel
somewhat discouraged, seeing,
as they must, that you, in a
greater degree than ever, possess
the mistaken confidence of a
vast majority of the members of
the Association"
Yes. that is the sustaining
consolation"
In conclusion Mr.. Elliot said,
Il am the more impressed day
by day with the power of the
press. If it were not for the
publicity bureau of this Associa-
ton; if it were not for the sin
cere and intelligent support ac-
corded this Association by the
newspapers published in the sew
eral counties, the Association
would perish. Look" said he,
at the three counties that are
furnished with the best newspa-
per service, the counties of Hen
derson, Union, and Webster.
These counties get Henderson as
we'll as the local papers. In conse-
quence these three counties pool
up nearly solid. While in Hopkins
and Crittenden. where the news
papers support, in point of
reiteration, to say the least. is
not so effective, the pooling
drags. Such is the power of the
press. And, speaking of Hop
kins and Crittenden-a great
work has been done in Hopkins
by Committeeman +. F. Brown,
and the promise is that the new
ly elected chairman, Mr.. w. H.
Parker, will vigorously continue
to push the pooling during the
next few weeks and make a
good report here the first Satur-
day in September. AS will also
Judge Towery, of Crittenden.
If the farmers of this district
who have not pooled were fully
informed they would pool this
year if never again. The des-
truction in this district by re-
peated floods has been very
great Conservative men place
it at from 80 to 40 per cent. and
the destruction in the counties
on the other side of Green river
has been yet greater. The crop
will there fore be a short one.
If only all the farmers were in
the Association a remunerative
in this district, could be had for
the 1910 CROP"
Thus Mr.. Elliot.

POWER
ON STEAM ROADS
Progress Of the Baltimore and Ohio
in Motive Power at
Baltimore.

Progress in the employing Of elec.
trio power on steam roads in which
the y. & o. was the pioneer road OF
.the world has newly enhanced inter
est in the great electric locomotives
Just coming to Baltimore for use on
the company's belt line tunnel.
Apparatus for controlling the loco
motives. Is mounted on the platform
and enclosed in the cab. This cab Is
divided into two parts. a main oper.
ating cab occupying the center part
of platform and low auxiliary cabs
extending from the main operating
cab to the outer ends of the locomo-
tive. The end cab contains such parts
of the control apparatus as do not
require continuous inspection and
care. The engineers seat is in the
main or central cab. well back from
the forward end Of the locomotive,
and so located as to afford him the
best command of all the apparatus
under his control. The low end Of
the cab and the passageway extend
lnB lIOHt lit tli8liifCI , hFiuON W
the forward end of the locomotive
leaves him a practically unobstruct-
ed view Of the track and right-of-wav
ahead. In addition to this the main
cab is so short thar without leaving
his seat he can obtain a very fair
view of the train behind or of the
switchman at the coupler engaged In
coupling up his train.
To obtain some idea Of the power
of these new locomotives they may
be compared with the heaviest types
of steam passenger locomotives. The
new b. & o. electric motor weighs 80
tons on drivers. The weight on the
drivers of the Pacific type of steam
locomotives for heavy passenger serv-
ice very rarely exceeds rs tons. A
weight Of 80 to 100 tons On drivers
is only obtainable on freight locom0-
tives of the Consolidation and Mikado
types. The weight on drivers which
determines the maximum pulling pow
er of the electric locomotives is there
fore comparable with the heaviest Of
steam locomotives for freight service.

Ask People to P%atronize Their

From The World Of Tuesday:

From The World of Tuesday:
Attention Is again called TO the
Easter sale next Saturday under the
auspices of the Stone Settlement
Home. The sale will be held in the
Board of Trade rooms on West King
street, and will continue all day. The
lady managers will have on sale pot
ted plants. CIT flowers, pies, cakes.
deserts, candies. aprons and Easter
novelties. The same sort af sale will
also be held Saturday a week at the
same place.
Price lists of Easter flowers are in
the hands of a number of young
ladies who are soliciting orders
around town. They can also be had
at the Board of Trade rooms.
1t is to be hoped that the sales
may be literally p~atronized for the
good and sufficient reason that the
proceeds are for the benefit of an in
stitution that is doing so much gooi
in Martinsburg in the way of charity
and moral uplift. Then, again, the
prices at these sales will be very rea-
sonable. People, therefore, are urged
to buy their Easter flowers and other
things specified at the Stone Home
sales.

LAND OF NOD"
Coming at the Central Opera House
on Next Monday.


The Land of Nod a musical ex.
traXaganza in a prologue and two
acts, by Adams and Hough. with
music by Joseph Howard, will be the
attraction at the Central Opera House
next Monday night. The production
is under the management of Samuel
X. Rork and Genes here fresh from
Broadway, where it scored one of the
greatest successes of any musical
comedy in New York last season. One
of the principal reasons why THE
Land of Nod" has been so unusually
successful is on account of its decid-
edly unique character creations and
the novelty and picturesqueness of
the play. which are briefly described
as follows: The prologue shows a
beautiful garden of flowers, where
children are at play. Little Bonnie"
falls asleep beneath a rose bush, and
the change of scene to the first act
discloses her in THE Land of Nod"

SHOULD SPEND THEIR
VACATIONS APART
Bishop Of London Thinks Husbands
and Wives Would Be
Happier.
From The World of Tuesday:

NO less an authority than RI. Rev,
Arthur Foley Wilmington Ingram OF
London has suggested that husbands
and wives would be happier If they
had each year a fortnight's holiday
away from each other and If the wife
were freed for at least that period
from the cares Of the house. Discus
sion has resulted in MANY quarters
while some trifing persons have as
serted that there should be an amend
ment extending the period proposed.
Il am absolutely in agreement with
the Bishop" said Mrs. Price Hughes
who has been prominent in women
clubs. Experience of life has taught
me that 1t would often be a very good
thing If husbands and wives could
take their holidays separately. When
you are away from people you can see
things more clearly; o realize their
good points, indeed, their true char.
acter, apart from the little rubs n
strains that must occur in everyday
life. 1t is possible, even for people
who are devoted to each other, to see
too much of each other.
mo doubt the prejudice fingers In
some cities that the sanctity of mar
riage requires that husband and wife
eve should be voluntarily apart. I
do not know hat they would be
shocked at a proposal that husband
and wife should take their holidays
separately, but the idea would never
occur to them. The husband might
go away on business and combine
that with his holiday: the wife might,
perhaps, go to stay with her mother:
but tie idea of er taking a real holi.
day certainly would be a novel one"
There is no doubt it would be an
excellent thing for wives if they could
get a short rest from their husbands
and household cares" said Mrs. Des-
pard, president of the Women's Free
dom League, Il am very glad the
Bishop of London has said what he

Officials to Consider Their De-

THEN WILL COME FlREMEN
Expense May Have to Be
Borne BY the Shippers, II Is Said
Il Is Supposed That the Demands OF
the Engineers Will Be Met Since
Advances Have Beer Given the
other Employees of the Road.

Baltimore. Md, March 15.-Confer-
ences We're held yesterday among the
operating force of the Baltimore and
Ohio to adjust and interpret the re-
cent agreement reached between the
company and the conductors and
'rainmen. Il was explained that while
the settlement was wholly satisfac-
tory and had been accepted, condi-
tons along the system were not all
the same.
These conditions required some fur
Their adjustment among the operating
force and the employees. 1t was ex-
planned, to make the agreement uni
form. The settlement was on the
basis Of a 100-mile run, with a mini
mum monthly pay. Some of the runs
on branch lines are more than 100
miles. some are less. Questions OF
this kind it was desired to have set
tied.
The company is having the agree
ment reached prepared in pamphleS
form for distribution to it's force in
all the states through which the road
runs. This will make clear the basis
of the settlement. 1t will avoid con-
tentions and misunderstanding under
the different conditions.
The next work of the company will
be to take up the a of the engine
men. After that will come the fire
men. Both of these organizations
have asked for conferences, as both
want a readjustment of the wage
scale. Representatives of the engine
men will probably be here the latter
part of the week, though the exact
time for the meeting has not yet been
fixed.
Satisfactory settlement has been
reached with the telegraphers, the
conductors and the trainmen. In view
of this, there is an optimistic opinion
that AN amicable arrangement can
also be reached with the two unions
still to be dealt with.
A possible outcome of the increased
expense to the company of the addi-
tional pay so far granted vas discuss
ed among some railroad men here and
elsewhere. The general expectation
is that the shippers will have to stand
part of this burden. This is the news
which comes also from Philadelphia
and New York, where it is belived
such action will be taken if the roads
centering in those cities are forced to
meet the demands of the working
force in the handling of trains.
1t is not unlikely, so it was said,
that freight rates may have to be ad-
vanced. The increase may be slight
so slight that the small shipper
might not notice ft-but it may be-
come a burden to those whose tor
mage movement over the roads
amounts to thousands of dollars daily.
