sevcnty.one Years in a Shoe Shop.


Charles H. Wilson of Troy, n. Y,
occupies the unique positlOi of having
been In business in one building for II
years, at least he will have completed
II years in the shoe business at 242
244 River street August u next. This
record, 1t is believed, can be equaled
by few If any shoe retailers in this
country. Mr.. Wilson has also been in
business for himself for more than so
years. Mr.. Wilson is today just as
much in active business as he was al
most three-quarters of a century ago,
when as a thirteen-year,old lad he en-
tered the employ of John Leonard
Williams OF Troy. To be exact, that
was August 70, 1910 Mr.. Williams
kept shoe store at 242-244 River
street in a building which had been
erected in 1903, and so the building
nov occupied by Mr. Williams for his
retail shoe business is one of the old
est buildings in Troy.

WOOL INNOCENT OF
HIGH COST OF LIVING
WooLGRoWERs OBJECT TO LAY.
ING ALL OR PRINCIPAL
BLAME ON SCHEDULE X.

The woolgrowers of this county
who were in attendance at the
state and national conventions held
In Portland last week, have returned
with glowing accounts Of the good
time enjoyed, the splendid hospit-
ality of Portland, and the serious,
practical benefits derived from the
meetings.
Hon. Jay H. Dobbin, OF this county
was reelected vice-president of the
state association, and also elected
vice-president for Oregon of the nat
ional association. Fred Falconer
was member of the committee on
finance OF the state association,
and Mr.. Dobbin OF the committee on
resolutions.
Both conventions expressed them
selves In no uncertain terms about
making Schedule X (the wool sched-
ule) the scapegoat for the many
and manifold sins OF manufacturers,
trusts, finance masters and transpor-
tation charges made unnecessarily
high to pay dividends ON thrice wat
cred stock and bonds.
The hue and cry against the high
cost Of living has been cunningly
directed by the bloated TRUST rob-
bers in big cities against the only
bit OF effective tariff protection af-
forded the real producers af the
country-farmers and stockmen. II
it succeeds, the Clever" Aldriches,
Elales and Cannons may find they
have pulled the whole tariff struc-
ture about their ears; the farmers
md stockmen may get up as much
nerve as the Canadian producers
end 80 to headquarters and demand
fair and equal treatment for all.
Following Is the entire article on

ed by the state convention:

NEW IBERIA & NORTHERN K. X.
Connecting New Iberia with the
Frisco system at Port Barre, La
The following sketch will give al
idea of the determination and ef-
ficiency with which the above
named road was graded and laid
into New iberia; giving this city
it's second rail connection with an
other large railway system.
The first strokes of grading were
ed forward with such vim and en-
the people of New IBERIA and the
country it traverses, on the 30th
day of the following December, the
first commercial train arrived at
New Iberia, where celebrations,
with fitting ceremonies in honor
OF the new road and it's promoters,
were given. An every other day
service was then operated until
the 1st of April, 1910; since then
daily service was inaugnratcd, and
is yet maintained, developing one
of the richest and most fertile sec
ton of the garden spot of Louis
lana.
The road boasts of five agent
stations and six flag stops.
The Iberian gratefully extends
Mr.. F. NJ. Welch, the hand OF
cOngratulatiOn for the tireless and
effective efforts he has displayed
in giving New Iberia another rail
road.
The road is under the manage
ment Of an active corps of deserv-
ing young men who are specially
trained in the respective depart
ments they serve, of which Mr.. +.

city on Monday evening of this

movement for the purifying of
the theatres of the city and also the
prohibiting of miners in pool and
billiard halls. The meeting was
largely attended and there was a
good deal of interest taken ir the
movement, but so far nothing much
was accomplished. 1t has been de-
cided to call another meeting for

which time some definite action will
be taken toward accOmplis hing the
desired results. 1t is claimed bv
those interested in the movement
that there is too much of the excit.
ing pictures being run at the local.
theatres, and the aim is to have the
managers change the class Of
