INST GENERAL ADVANCE BUT
DOES ESTABLISH MIMI
MUM WAGE.

Washington, ID. C An award that
is considered a partial vistory for
the 10000 locomotive engineers in
their controversy, begun last January
with the fifty-two railways operating
in the territory east OF Chicago and
north Of Norfold and Cincinnati, was
announced here today bw the board
of o%rbitration which investigated the
question at issue. 1t grants certain
increased compensation and improv-
ed and uniform rules of service re-
quested by the engineers, but. holds
that a general increase of wages on
all roads is not warranted upon the
basis OF the evidence presented.
The board found that on some
roads and for s~ertain classes of ser
vice the compensation was too small
and therefore introduced into the
award the principle OF a minimum
wage for the entire district. The
award, which dates back to May i,
last and will stand for one year, set

The head camp that meets every

January meeting, 1912, on the theory
that the old rates We're inadequate

the order would ultimately become
insolvent.
The experts compute that $ 10000
or nearly 40, per cent OF the policy H.

A large proportion of the policy
holders resisted the new rate ON the
theory that they had a contract with
the order at the old rate. and that the
head camp had no right to raise the
rate on them. The head officials who
engineered the movement for higher

u may w
dered why the Master permitted the
evil spirit to tear the boy and cause
him pain, in leaving him. If lie had
power to cast him out, He also u,l-
doubtedly had power TO control the
manner of his coming out. We can
only surmisc therefore that Jesus, ON
this and other occasions. allowed the
evi! spirit a measure of liberty in the
method of leaving. and that this was
for the very purpose of demonstrating
how malicious and evil the spirit was
which had control, and thus the mir
acle was the more clearly seen, and
the Lord more praised.
"Many Said, lie is Dead"
The boy was left in an apparently
dead condition. but Jesus took him by
the hand and raised him up. The les.
SON for us in this is that it is not only
that the Adversary and his power he
cast out from humanity. that the poor
world needs. but they need Divine
power for their uplift out OF the miro
of sin and death. According 10 the
Scriptures. we are neal the time When
