Plumbers at Work; Timers Still
Out.-The labor situation in Moline
clarified somewhat yesterday when
members of the journeymen plumbers
union, who have been on strike for
exactly three weeks, returned to work,
following an agreement with the bosses
and the signing of a contract last
week The agreement between bosses
and iourpeymen is reported to be en-
tirely satisfactory TO both organiza-
tons and peace is assured during the
life of the new contract. The end of
the strike means that the journeymen
plumbers are receiving 81 instead of
$3.50. per day, but that the master
plumbers are gamers so far as shop
rules are concerned. 1t was over the
revision of these working rules that
the organizations failed to agree for
so long a time. The strike OF the
iourneymen timers and sheet metal
workers continue. A member OF the
Willis & Son company said that a
score of men are working in the open
shop at present time.

MORE TALK OF INTERURBAN
Audubon and Guthrie Center are Lo-
Gated on Direct Line

Bro Henry of Coon Rapids admits
that because of the contour of the coun-
try round about that town they need
not expect an interurban line for long
time to come. But says that Audubon
is right on the line. The Enterprise
speaks as follows:
There continues 10 be considerable
agitation for an inte.Iurban line to
Guthrie Center and Audubon from Perry
thence TO Des Moines, and also to Carroll
and Jefferson. "A good territory presents
itself in all these localities, but on nc,
count of heavy grades and fills, the cost
would be abont $4,000 mile to build
Neither of these proposed lines would
run anywhere near Coon Rapids. In
fact Coon Rapids, on account of the very
billy country south, is not likely TO get
an lnterufban or steam road, north and
south. for many years TO come In talk
ing Monday with A. p. Chamberlain,
general manager of the interurban Rail
way Promotion and Construction Com
pany, an old time boyhood friend of the
writer, he said that the territory around
Coon Rapids was as rich as any he knew
In the state and would be very profit
able territory for an interurban line,
but that the town wound be very expen-
siye to reach, too much SO for the COM
pany to think of attempting to build IL
line to the town. More than this, that
the Milwaukee was taking good care of
us. But with Guthrie Center and Au-
dubon, on branch steam lines, interur-
bans We're something of a necessity, and
that with sufficient encouragement in
the way of financial aid, the above
towns as well us Jefferson, might secure
lines. ("

TAFTS FRANKNEsS

That President Taft is one of the most
deliberate and outspoken presidents is
becoming more and more apparent
Cognizant in his full knowledge of public
affairs, because of his position and stand
ing before the people if not the politi-
cirns, he takes his own time to speak,
and when he is ready he forcibly states
his opinions and his wishes in a manner
so plain that all the people may under
stand Concerning his fearlessness the
New York Evening Post has the follow
ing.
We used to talk about the Appalling
frankness of President Roosevelt, but
Mr.. Taft is fully holding his own in
that regard In his speeches, as in his
messages, he lays bare the workings of
his own mind with the utmost simplici
ty. And in one particular he manifests
directness greater than that of any
predecessor, even his Immediate We
refer to the perfectly straightforward
way in which he notifies congress that
he has caused to be prepared the drafts
of bills which he would like to see enact
ed. His quiet words are I" BY my direc-
ton the attorney general has drafted a
bill to carry out these recommenda-
tons. 1t is highly probable that other
presidents have done practically the
same thing, but we doubt if any other
ever announced it SO openly, Yet Mr..
Taft's manner is SO calm, and his mes
sage is written SO absolutely without
heat that we presume no one will accuse
him of trying to dictate a law to the
lawmaking body. What he doubtless
had in mind was the saving of time and
the expediting of the public business;
but he goes about it with a disregard of
precedent which would seem sensational
enough in more sensational president

Pleasant Meeting on a Train

meeting with minister from her form
err home in Belfast, Ireland While oc-
cupying lower berth in q tourist sleep
er up in Canada a gentleman who came
aboard late was compelled TO take the
upper berth in the same section. The
experience was evidently new to him
because he furnished much amusement
for the other passengers by telling the
porter he was just sure he would roll
out of bed before morning Mrs. Stemm
soon learned the next morning that he
was Methodist minister from Belfast
and knew many of her friends in that
city which she left some twenty years
ago AS Mrs. Stemm had lunch bas-
ket full of good things to eat, she invit-
ed the dominic to dine with her and
greatly surprised his lordship when She
placed before him an abundant meal in
Guiding cocoa and baked potatoes. 1t
seems that a tourist sleeper with its con-
yeniences is unknown in that country
beyond the sea- Mrs. Stemm has had
papers from that big city telling abont
his pleasant meeting with her on the
