HISTORICAL SOCIETY GROWS

The coming of winter and the slacken-
ing off of work in the city has increased
the daily attendance at the meetings of
the Historical Society in the Labor Tenn
pie reading room. New rules of proceed
ure have been found necessary owing to
the continued tardiness of the presiding
officer and hereafter the first member to
appear in the morning will be chairman
for the day. If the same chairman pre-
sides three days in succession he will be
rewarded by being made custodian of
the funds which at present consist of
three pants buttons. plugged nickel and
a copy of the Outlook" containing the
range of topics is discussed by the So
ciety and affairs of state which have
brought premature gray hairs to the
heads of diplomats and statesmen are
settled at one sitting. Last week for in
stance the Chinese republic was estab-
lished. the Italian army was annihilated
by the Turkish troops John J. Me
Namara was executed at San Quentin,
Taft was nominated for a second term
and ran third. John Dahl appointed chief
of police, the war-like proclivities of
Caesar compared to those of Teddy
Roosevelt with Caesar running a poor
second. Some program eh, but it didn't
raise sweat bead on the brow of any
member of this strenuous society. Visit
ors are always welcome but are not al
lowed to butt in on the conversation.

ROCK ISLAND
COMES OVER
SYSTEM RECOG-
NIZES SYSTEM Fedora
TION AND SIGNS UP AGREE
MENT WITH THE MEN.

Report to hand that the Rock Island
railroad has signed up with the System
Federation.
For a time it looked like trouble, as
the company had built fences around its
shops and made other preparations for
carrying on strike, but after the fed
Grated employees had taken a strike vote
the company came to time. That the
general managers association would in
the midst of the strike on the Hartman
and Illinois Central lines, permit the
Rock Island to sign up with the fedora
tion, and a good agreement at that, is
a sign that they do not take very
hopeful view of the fight on the other
lines.
This makes eighteen roads that have
agreements with the System Federation
Reports from Hartman and Illinois Cen
tral picket lines show the men standing
firm, the rolling stock going to pieces
more rapidly than in any previous battle
between capital and labor, and in all
probabilities settlement in sight
A movement has been started, evident
ly on the initiative of the railroad Off
cials by the governors of Illinois and
Teaxs, to have all the governors of the
states through which the Hartman and
Illinois Central lines run, to submit the
controversy between these roads and
their employees to arbitration. Arbitra-
tion before strike may be logical, but
arbitration at the close of strike is
usually the last ditch of defeated cor
poration when they try to entice the
army to slaughter.
Recognition of the federation" de-
clared Kruttschnitt, sis an impossible
ity." System Federation" says the
"is an economic necessity and
we cannot surrender it. 1t means an
eight hour day and larger and better
life for us all"
At present writing it looks like win
for labor.

In 1892 President Harrison was nomi-
mated for second term by the votes of
delegates from the Gulf states. Harri-
son was renominated, despite the opposi-
tion in the north, and because of the
votes from the south. Instructions Were
followed and pledges kept. The result is
well remembered. The republican party
suffered overwhelming defeat. The les
son of 1892 has direct bearing on con-
ditions within the republican party to-
day. President Taft's position is identi-
cal with that of President Harrison.

Washington, d. c., Nov. 14.-No more
striking illustration of the weakness of
President Taft in the entire field of
presidential candidates can be found
than in the poll made by the Farm Jour
nal, published in Pennsylvania. The
Farm Journal is asking its readers to
express their choice for president. Here
is the answer thus far received;
For LaFollette, 307; for Roosevelt,
GAG; for Wilson, 1872; for Taft, 80.
Out of a total vote of 765, many of
them cast in Pennsylvania, President
Taft received only 80.

CITATION.

Mr.. E. p. Marsh, Everett. Wash.
My Dear Sir-l want to express my
appreciation of your review of the Me
Namara ease in the journal of December
s. Such fair treatment of this unfor-
tunate incident is sure to command the
respect of all law abiding citizens. The
cause of labor will be helped immeasur-
ably if such sentiment is allowed to rule
within the organization.
Fraternally yours,

Says the Richmond (Cal) Independent;
"ln the east people are amazed at the
growth of the LaFollette movement at
the growing revolt against the Taft ad-
ministration. The conviction is becom-
ing general that the progressive wing of
the republican party is destined to rule
and that LaFollette is the only hope for
a national republican victory"

Mr.. White, a young newspaper
man, is presenting at the Rose
theater a set of views incident
to the famous Mcnamara case
and reviewing the case with an
accompanying lecture. The views
are authentic and give a concise
idea of the principal actors in
the great tragedy. Mr.. White
rejects absolutely the idea that
organized labor is to blame as a
body and asks the public not to
judge trade unionism by the mis-
taken acts of few fanatics.
The pictures will be on this aft
ernoon and tonight.

If your hens do not do we'll, try a
small patch Of alfalfa An acre will
be enough for a few colonies.
1t has been shown that alfalfa can
be grown anywhere in the United
States and by starting with a small
patch of it and gradually widening the
area as you get time to lime and In
oculate the soil. you will soon have a
good-sized field of it. 1t is excellent
feed, both for hogs and poultry.
Alfalfa meal is one of the best of
winter feeds for chickens. The meal
Is semi-green In nature, besides con
tanning a high percentage of lime and
protein. Alfalfa meal will cost about
as much as wheat bran, and 1t has
about equal feeding value to bran,
besides providing green stuff for the
hens in winter when grass is dead. Try
some of the meal this winter and ar
range to grow your own alfalfa for the
hens and bees another year.

(By WALTER B. LEUTz.)

Weeds, weeds everywhere; they
thrive in the cornfield, they choke
wheat in the field, they annoy the
gardener, they thrive in the meadow
they spring up by the roadside, they
encroach on the swamp.
Emerson said of weeds that they
are plants whose virtues have not yet
been discovered" But few benefits
may be derived from weeds.
They are of some use in the world
to induce more frequent and more
thorough cultivation, which benefits
crops; in occupying the soil after a
crop has been removed they prevent
the loss of fertility by shading the
ground.
Weeds plowed under add some
humus and fertility to the soil, though
in a very much less degree than clover
or cow peas; some weeds furnish food
for birds in winter.
In justice to the weeds their ad-
vantages have been mentioned first,
because the list of the disadvantages
is a very long one-too long to enum-
crate. A few, however, may be given
enough to convince every one that
every effort should be made to get
rid Of them.
Farmers should carefully observe
and study the weeds and their habits.
in order to fight them to the best ad-
vantage.
l. Weeds rob cultivated plants Of
nutriment.
Q. They injure crops by crowding
and shading.
8. They retard the work of har-
vesting grain by increasing the draft
and by extra wear of machinery.
4. They retard the drying of grain
and hay.
s. They increase the labor of

Four of the commonest weeds are
the wild carrot. chicory, dodder, and
ribgrass.
Chicory has long been recognized
as a troublesome weed 1t is common
in alfalfa growing sections of the
country as well as the clover sections.
The plant is easily recognized by the
blue flowers and lower root leaves,
which resemble those of the common
dandelion. The upper leaves the more
or less sticky and clasp the stem. The
plant contains milky juice. Chicory
is not difficult to destroy where rota-
tion of crops is practiced. Though a
perennial. the roots are easily killed
by successive cultivation. The bios
SONS of chicory are yellow and attrac-
tive. Chicory was introduced into this
country from Europe.
Wild carrot has become more wide

any other weed in the country. 1t is

troublesome to crops. Wild carrot Ia
