Strain is Champion.
Councilman Strain, who has cham
pioned the move to get the wires
underground, is earnestly for it and
hopes for success though he has
made no canvass of the council upon
the subject. Mr. Strain particularly
favors getting the electric wires
underground because of the DANCE,
firemen are subject to when fires
break out in the business section al
this time.
However. Mr.. Strain has no def.
mite plan worked out for bringing this
, Improvement about and says he de.
sires to see no hasty action taken

entire matter studied carefully and
an ordinance drawn that will protec

BUT FINES FIVE
Thinks Boys Working Out of
School Hours Should Be

Justice McInerny. presiding In Special
Sessions. to-day expressed himself as
being In favor OF amending the State
Labor law prohibiting children under
the age OF sixteen years from doing
any work whatsoever. without a Board
Of Health certificate. A half dozen
grocers and other tradesmen were be-
fore the Court. charged with employ
ing boys between the age Of fourteen
and sixteen years to deliver orders
after school hours and on Saturdays.
'Tt seems to me-" said Justice Nc
Inerny. that instead of Furnishing mer-
chants for allowing youths to make a
few pennies in honest employment on
saturdays and after school. the Court
should commend them. In these days
every penny counts. and the boy who Is
willing 10 earn a few cents toward the
support of the family after school
should be patted on the back.
: Ut would be a good thdrg If children
were allowed to DIRK on Saturdays IN
the stores of their neighborhoods. The
money they would earn would be Of

Grand Jury May Make Investi-

COURT CHARGES JURY
It Is Claimed That Prominent POiiti- clans Are Ready to Come Into Court and Tell All They Know About It

Danville, Ill, January 22-vote traf- of Speaker Joseph G. Cannon, are fac Ing a situation brought about by mis- understanding but which has the possi- bility of duplicating the situation in Adams county, Ohio.
 Some public officials here acknowledged today that traffic in votes was generally known to exist in Vermilion county. Court officials have made 1t known that every opportunity will be given for gen. eral acknowledgment of the misdemean- or and for a general cleaning up. Wheth- CT such a sequence will come depends upon whether witnesses Who will be called before the grand jury at its session the coming week see fit to tell what they know.
 Judge E. R. T. Kimbrough, who will be the central figure of whatever situa- ton arises. charged the grand jury week ago that now was as good time as any to clear up the political atmos- phere in which the county had lived.
 Foreman Isaac Woodward of the grand jury said today his way was pointed out by the court and that he proposed to fol- lew it. Several prominent officials whose names brought the matter to climax have said they will testify if asked. That is the condition which the grand jury will find when it convenes at 1:S0 p. m. tomorrow.
 The misunderstanding which brought about the crisis came from a published statement purporting to be a comics sion" from City Attorney Frank w. Jones of Danvile that he himself had bought votes to elect Sheriff John T. Shepard and his subsequent denial of such an alleged confession. This brought the public gaze onto the voting conditions.
