BILL IS ENDORSED
BY ORGANIZATION
Local Men Say Anti-Ferret
Hunting Bill Is l.
Needed. u

The members Of the Wayne County
Fish and Game Protective association
are pleased with the action of the
state legislature In acting favorably
toward the bill prohibiting hunting
with ferrets.
According to members of the local
organization wayne county has its
full share of men who use ferrets to
hunt rabbits and other game. This
practice is branded as cowardly in
that it often leads to ruthless slaugh.
ter of rabbits.
According to the county clerk most
of the applicants for hunting licenses
who have inquired as to the law pro-
hibiting ferrets have been boys. The
number of hunting licenses issued in
Wayne county as well as other coun
ties has grown smaller as the result
Of the action Of some hunters in
slaughtering more than they could pos
sibly use. Many of the laws indorsed
by the Indiana Game and Forest lea
que were not received favorably by the
state legislature.
The bill provides that any person
found guilty of violating the regula
tions of the anti-ferret bill shall be
fined not less than $40 nor more thar
s25.

TEACHERS SUPPORT
IS GIVEN z BILLS
Association Passed Resolu-
tions on Pending Legisla-
tion At Meeting.
CENSOR ALSO GIVEN
Because, Instructors Say, Ar
ticles in Magazine
Were Wrong.
CENSOR ALSO GIVEN

The Wayne county teachers associa-
tion at its meeting Saturday. passed a
resolution requesting the state legis-
lature from this county to support the
bills now pending in the legislature
session for the pensioning of teach
ers in cities of 10000 inhabitants or
over and the one providing that all
examination papers for teachers IL
cense shall be graded by the state su-
perintendent. thus freeing the county
superintendent from the routine of his
office and allowing all of his time for
professional work.
These two bills are the most import
ant bills which are now pending be-
fore the session relative to school
work. Though Supt. Williams is in IA
vor of the bill providing pension for
the teachers who have taught for a
specified length of time, he does not
believe the bill which would compel
the examination papers of teachers to
be corrected by the state superintend-
ent good one.
THE proposed law would cause de-
lay in school work and might work a
hardship on teachers and pupils" said
Superintendent Williams. "If there is
a vacancy left in any of the local
schools as result of the death of a
teacher or from other causes, accord
ing to the present system, we can fill
the vacancy by giving an applicant for
the position an examination and cor
recting it the same day. II the appli.
cant passes an examination success
fully, the vacancy can be filled In
one day. If the bill passes we would
have to send the examination to In.
dianapolis and it might not be cor
rected for a week. If the applicant
fails, we would have to give another
examination and the scholars might
be without a teacher an indefinite
length of time. II would give me
more time to devote to the other du
ties of my ONCE but 1t is not salts
factory in some respects"
The articles which have been pub
lished in the Ladies' Home journal
under the title THE Common School
were severely censored by the mem
bers of the association. The article,
published were condemned as being
unfair in that they thoroughly mis-
represented the spirit of the present
school system as to create a wrong
impression Of it's work and inculcate:
disrespect in the public mind fol
the system.

ing Negotiations Probably
Will Fail.
OFFICIALS IN CITY
WAITING ANXIOUSLY Y
A Raise of Fifteen Per Cent
in Wages Is Asked BY
Firemen-Fear That Traf-
fic Here May Be Tied Up.

Mediation Of Wages and Rules has
failed. Mediation of arbitration under
the Erdman act will probably fail. II
will be sent to Richmond at once.
Communicate to all members immedi-
ately.
(Signed) w. s. CARTER,
President, Brotherhood Locomotive
Firemen and Enginemen.
The above message was telegraphed
by the local order of the B. of L. F.
& e. Saturday night and the order
which will result in a strike of $4,000
firemen east of Chicago will probably
be ordered soon.
Expect Order Soon.
The local officials of the brother
hood believe the strike will not be
delayed more than a few days and
possibly may be ordered tonight.
The strike will take effect twenty-four
hours after the order is received.
The strike will be the result of the
inability on the part of the mediation
committee of the brotherhood to COM
promise the demand of the firemen on
roads east of Chicago for the same
wages as those paid firemen on roads
west of Chicago with the officials Of
81 railroads. The compromise was dis.
cussed between the railroads and the
railroad brotherhood joint mediation
committee in New York city.
IS Per Cent Raise.
A raise of fifteen per cent in the
wages of the firemen is asked. 1t is
further asked that two men be placed
on the large engines as 1t is almost
beyond human endurance for one man
to do all the work. The employees are
only asking of the officials in the east
what was granted the employees of the
lines west of Chicago, according to the
local trainmen.
There are over 200 firemen on the
c. and o. and the P. C. c. and st. L.
railroads who make Richmond their
home or headquarters. 1t is said by
the trainmen that the strike will tie
up traffic to great extent.
