and IT is believed that it was the
work of some citizen or citizens of
that place who objected to the style
of depot that the Burlington had
moved TO that place. 1t will be re-
membered that the depot at Hills
dale was destroyed by fire two weeks
ago. The company moved another
depot to HilIsdale from Joslin on a
fat car The new depot was about
the size of a large furniture car and
it is evident that somebody in Hills
daye thought that it was not the kind
of a depot that they desire, where
upon 1t was destroyed by fire. An
unsuccessful attempt was made to
destroy the building by fire Wednes-
day night of this week. Oil was
placed on a corner of the building,
and the paper was set on fire, but
the fire did not ignite the corner Of
the building and the attempt was I'M
successful. This is what leads some
to think that the building was set
on fire by an incendiary Thursday
night. The building and the con-
tents were totally destroyed.

piety, or the absence Of sunshine and
air in the congressional chamber?
Captain Hobson, who thinks deep
" on many subjects, thinks that
the skull has a telescope arrange
ment by which IL enlarges the skin,
making it impossible for the hair to
grow. This may explain in part. But
if the theory of serious thought were
complete, why these two sessions of
consecutive serious tarif debate
ought to make the remainder Of the
house baldheaded
On the other hand, the lapse Of
humor in the present congress 10 re-
lax the skin and scalp sustains the
Hobson theory.
All this badness has come to con-
gress since Private John Allen took
his droll humor back to Mississippi.
Adam Bede has been the only humor-
ist since John Aliens day, and now
Adam Bede is gone. The house is
famished for a laugh.
Statesmen, however, are beginning

to be afraid of humor and the out
look is therefore gloomy under the
Hobson theory. for the hsirdresser
in the house.
Why are more republicans bald
than democrats? IL is a fact. Be
cause, say the democrats, badness is
the legitimate child Of luxury and
monopoly and the spoils system,
which ara the synonyms OF republican
ism
Why are so many democrats bald?
Because, say the republicans, badness
is akin to drouth and barrenness
And BECAUSE" said Martin Littleton,
the republicans have snatched us
baldheaded so often that the habit has
got into our hair"
The bald headed members assert
that badness is an associate of brains
and craftsmanship, and point proudly
TO Champ Clark and Henry Clayton
and Henry. of Texas, and Hobson and
James. But they forget the full raven
locks of Oscar Underwood, the curly
pate OF Rainey of Illinois and the
hirsute glory of Martin Littleton.
A glance through the capitol gal.

of the elder statesmen were bald
JeffersOn's flowing curls were famous
Webster's massive brow shone out OF
abundant hair; Henry Clay's locks
came nearly to his shoulders, and
John c. Calhoun, that vast deep
thinking lOgician, had the full, shaggy
name of a lion. Ben Franklin wore
curls, and the two Adamses were the
only bald-headed presidents the coun-
try ever knew until the thinning
crown of Cleveland. I'm his second

kinley, the apostle of protection, was
rapidly fulfilling the Hobson theory

headed ranks.
John d. Rockefeller is. perhaps the
baldest man in all the world. There Is
not a hair on him from his neck 10

BALD HEADS AND BRAINS

The 62nd is a bald headed congress.
Forty-three per cent of the repre-
sentatives are innocent of hair on top
of their heads.
Forty-five per cent of the republican
minority are bald. Thirty-seven per
cent of the militant majority are hair
topless. too.
Never since the government was
founded has the visitor in the CALLER
les looked down upon such an expense
Of smooth and shining pates.
OF the bald heads in this bald con-
gress, 81 per cent are set upon the
shoulder of young men, under as.
Why do we see superb specimens OF
young manhood like Ollie James and
Richmond Hobson and Gordon Lee and
Henry Clayton bald, while the gallant
speaker in the chair, himself a young
man, loses something almost daily from
the few scattered hairs that linger on
his wise and loyal head?

with one hour for supper.

1t often occurs that while the drive
ways through the park are crowded
with people. some owner of an auto or
motorcycle takes special delight in ex-
ceeding the speed limit and thereby
endangerin5 the life of pedestrians.
This should no longer be tolerated.
Eight miles an hour will be the estab-
lished speed limit

Bodies Seeking Localities Where
They Are Assured of Better
Protection

In its issue today the Tri-City
Weekly Labor Review has an article
which suggests that 1t will be pos
sible to secure the headquarters of
several OF the international unions
for the three cities II the CONNER
cial bodies of Rock Island, Moline
and Davenport assisted in the move
ment The following special and
comment appears in this weeks Is
sue Of the labor paper:
Indianapolis, Ind, May 10, 1911.
As a result Of the Illegal procedure
IN the removal OF J. J. Mcnamara,
secretary Of the international As
ISOLATION of Bridge and Structural
Ironworkers, from Indiana to Cali
fornia and the Selling OF the rec
ords OF that organization without
authority of law there is a well de-
fined movement on foot to remove
from the state OF Indiana all the
headquarters Offices Of the national
and international labor organizations
now located there.
PROPOSITIONS RECEIVED.
The movement has received con-
siderable impetus and already prop
osition have been received by
number OF organizations looking TO
the removal of headquarters 10
other sections of the country. ILL.,
nois and Iowa are the first states to
put in their bids, and on account of
their central location and assur-
ances of fair treatment of labor or
ganizations are looked on with IA
vor.
It is said on good authority that
Springfield, Ill, has made strong
bid for the headquarters of the
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-05-13

Mine Workers, that Peoria, Ill, was
after the Brotherhood Of Locomotive
Firemen and Engfnemen and that
Des Moines. Iowa, has made a bid
for one of the Offices.
This contemplated removal means
much to the state of Indiana, and
particularly to the city of Indianapo-
lis, which has long been the head
quarters of some OF the strongest Ia
Dor organizations in the country.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars of
union money are now on deposit in
the local banks and the business of
the unions amounts TO millions of
dollars annually. A strong effort is
being made by the bankers who are
naturally averse to losing this bust
ness, to block the fast growing SEN
timent in favor Of removal
RECORDS ARE SEIZED.
The unwarranted and illegal seiz-
ure of the books and records of the
Iron Workers by private detectives
has done much to convince the Of
ficers Of the various organizations
that their records are no longer safe
in Indiana and that the best inter
ests Of the organizations will be sub
served by their removal to other
states.
The action Of Governor Carroll Of
Iowa IN personally intervening in the
button makers strike at Muscatine
has created a favorable impression
and labor leaders are inclined to
the belief that Iowa at least will
give them fair deal
The following organizations now
have their headquarters in this
state: The international Typograph-
ical union, the oldest national labor
organization in America; the Inter-
national Brotherhood Of Transfers,
the United Mine Workers of Amer
ica, the United Brotherhood Of Car
penters and Joiners- the Brotherhood
Of Locomotive Firemen and Engine
men. the International Association OF
Bridge and Structural Iron Work
ers, the Journeymen BARRIERS. the
German-Am erican Topographic and
the international Brotherhood OF
Bookbinders have their headquarters
Of Painters, Decorators and Paper
Hangers of America have their head
quarters at Lafayette. Should the
headquarters of these unions be re-
moved from Indiana the labor men
believe that ii will be a most eff
fective protest against the kidnap-
ing Of the McNamaras
