WHY THIS MEEK AND TAME SUBMISSION
1t Isn't Necessary for Your Whole Life to Be Plated
Out and Published Either in the City Directory
Or When You Get Married.

In Indiana, in instance. and however

political-poitical in the larger sense

Only such publicity As is given
through the medium of the ofncial rec

To publish these facts in detail in
the daily press-or the weekly for that
matter-is an impairment intrusion
into the private affairs OF the individ-
ual as unwarranted as 1t is frequently
malicious and invariably humiliating.
1t also leads to falsifications which
would not occur II publicity in this
way we're not feared.
Nine out of every ten women will lie
about their ages. And justifably so.
Whose business is 1t how old anybody
is? Why should the public be advised

have put in the time just because these
two people have decided to get mar
ried?
Why publish that margaret Mason

or anything else, for that matter, and

The law does not require the publ
cation of these details. Many people
are not aware of this. They think 1t Is
a necessary discomfort attendant upon
getting married.
1t can be stopped by anyone who re
fuses to have such facts put in the
paper"

NAPOLEON and We!Iinoten.

Napoleon was much greater mill.
tary genius than Wellington. The man
who was accidentally overthrown by
Wellington and Butcher at Waterloo
was one of the three or four greatest
military geniuses that the race has
produced. If it had not rained on the
night Of the 18th of June Napoleon
would have had Wellington beaten to
a finish long before Blucher's arrival.
and the history Of Europe and of the
world would have been an altogether
different thing from what it is. Wei
lington was a good general, but Napo-
leon was more than that. He was a
supremely great battle winner, as
much above Wellington as Wellington
was above his Observation-Disclosures.

.Rx. SHOP WORKERS
HOLD CONFERENCE
Plan to Combine All Mechan-

ern Railroads.
(Natlonal News Association)

KANSAS CITY. Mo-. March del
egates representing the shop trade on
every western railroad are to hold a
conference here this week with q num-
Der Of prominent labor leaders and rep.
resentatives OF the various other bran
ches Of organized railroad labor. to
perfect the details Of a gigantic COM
bination or confederation Of all the me-
chanical trades on the railroads west
Of the Mississippi River. A great deal
OF preparatory work has been done al
ready. but there Is still much to be
done before this far.reaching plan can
be brought to full maturity.
In q general way the complete plans
contemplate the formation OF terri
torial organization OF railroad en-
pl0yes that will include every railroad
operating west OF the Mississippi river
Before this ultimate result can be ach-
1eved, II will be necessary to perfect
system Of declarations of the various
organized Charts OF every one OF the
western railroads.
Heretofore the mechanical trades OF
the various railroads were not feder-
ated with the other trades of their res
pcctive lines and in case OF strike
they had no support from the other
trades. The railroad companies. having
an understanding among themselves.
helped each other and the strikers
were invariably defeated. Realizing
that their weakness was due to the
lack Of a thorough understanding be-
tween the railroad employees, a move
ment was started to bring the various
trades into closer touch and to form
not only declarations of the mechanical
trades OF all western railroads. but
also System declarations including com
binations on every railroad between
the mechanical and the traffic trade
Of that railroad, in other words fed
Grafton of the shop men with the en-
men Of each system.

to full completion. the labor leaders
