Remembers The Sentinel.

The Kelloggs, Of Memo, Neb., send
THE SENTINEL a pleasant note, and a
gentle jibe at the same time, charg.
ing that we Missourians are now
wearing a potato for watch charm,
they being so very scarce, and send us
a fine specimen Of a spud from the
Kellogg, Nebraska farm, which Is
surely a specimen that would make
the son of the Emerald Isle smile as
he never did before, and we wouldn't
blame him. But We have taters, too,
thank you, and while the crops may
be a little short, we have an abun.
dance for home consumption, and
some to spare for export. They are
retailing at sl,25 per bushel-but we
will admit they are no finer or larger
than the one sent us by Mr.. and Mrs
+. J. Kellogg, formerly Of Craig, now
farming at Memo, Neb., and we are
glad to know are prospecting; and may
IT. ever be so.

Story Of Auto Plant
The city Of Flint has population
of $500 people. 1t is one Of the
centers of the automobile and car
friage Industry. The Buick automobile
is made there. Recently that firm was
in financial difficulties. It was pro
ducing at tremendous rate and the
management was careless. Its credit
became impaired. Then for several
weeks it was shut down and the first
thing we knew Kuhn, Loeb & Co.,
had tided the firm over and it became
part OF the General Motors company.
ii. P. Morgan's automobile trust.
Wages Cut Down.
Immediately the firm was reorgan-
lied. A manager was put in at q sal
airy which is understood to be $4,000
"a year. He cut pay right and left.
The garnishee sharks have preyed
on the workingmen till the workers
became desperate.
The Socialist growth in Flint has
kept pace in the last few years with
it's rapid industrial growth.
/ and the aldermen elected will do
our best to make good.

Boiler Inspection
Law Is A Fake

The much advertised boiler inspection
law, it is now learned. has been put
in the hands Of the railroad corpo 4

the Taft administration he'd a railroad
attorney prepare the list of require
ments for inspectors as they bar from
employment any man who is not at
present an understrapper Of the rail-
roads.
One Of the qualifications is that the
applicant must have been IN the en-.
ployment Of railroad within two
years next preceding The date Of aps
plication. Another is that he mast
be ssof good speech and manner.
qualified TO address and confer with
railroad officials as occasion may
