Painters Strike
Still In Progress

As a result of the unreasonable at
titude of some Of the contracting
painters of Wheeling, the strike of
the painters is still on. From the
first the men have shown a COM
mehdable spirit of afirness, but the
bosses have refused to meet them
even. half way. When the men first
made their demand for an increased
sion of work became necessary. Since
then, theb osses have offered to pay
wage scale, they submitted their new
scale in ample time to satisfy the
the employers, and to even permit
OF conferences on the matter, II they
were not satisfied, but the employers
made no effort in the matter, at all.
So, on the first of April suspen-
$3.50. The men, who have asked for
81. and who have secured the sigma
lures Of the majority of Wheeling
contractors to that scale, offered to
compromise at $3.72, but the employ
era have shown no willingness to
accept even this.
So the strike is still on. and the
union work Of the city is being done
by contractors who have signed the
scale.

1t is certain, however, that COM

for no wage increase, but is the same

Will Be Welcome.
This amicable settlement will be

It Is with much reluctance that La

any firm or corporation is unfair to
Labor, and this step is only taken
when 1t Is believed that every other
course has failed to bring about the
desired results--the uplift Of the

U. S. MAY SUPERVISE
ELECTION IN CUBA

Washington. D. C, Sept 14.-Condi-
tions in Cuba are far from satisfac-
tory TO the state department. and it
was intimated today that the United
States might indirectly at least, super
wise the coming election The anti
foreign and anti American elements
are giving the department some un-
easiness and the situation is being
closely watched
A move in the direction Of alaying
the anti American feeling was taken
when Col Herbert Slocum was ap-
pointed military attache to the -Ameri-
can legation in Havana Col. Slocum
is well known and popular in Cuba
having organized the rural police dur

In one Of the Paris congresses the
matter of Pasteur's anti-rabic was
treatment of hydrOphobia established.
Today every country has such insti-
tutes there being no less than p in

government has found it can send the

from horrible deaths from hydropho-
bia because Of this treatment.
The Use of AntitOxin.
In 1890, professor Won Behrine OF
Marbury. demonstrated that he could
render animals immune from diphthe-
ria by giving th9n an antitoxin- y
report of his WORK was made at the
congress which followed in 1895. a lit
tie later. some of the antitOXin was
brought to this country, and under It's
use the mortality from that dread
disease of childhood had fallen from
1915 per 100000 in 1890 to PA per
100000 in 1910.
one scarcely can imagine from these
mere figures what the use of antitoXin
really means. If the death rate from
diphthcria. prevalent in 1890. prevailed
today IN the United States. nearly TO-
600 children would die who now are
permitted to live longer lives by the
use of this antitOxin- In other words.

What has been done in the case Of
diphtheria is matched by what has
been done in preventing typhoid fever
in many communities. 1t is equaled
also by what has been done in fight

what has been done in the case of
