Washington last night. after trip
across the continent, and are stopping

The young women, who were selected
because they had shown special skill in
different pursuits OF life, are taking the
trip at the expense of Philip S. Bates,
publisher of The Great Northwest, one
of the largest farm papers in the West
Many of them have interesting expert
ences to relate of life in their part of the
country. The majority of them are over
twenty-one, and enjoy the privilege Of
voting in Oregon, which is woman

The fair delegates left Philadelphia yes
terday, where they laid their proposition
before Mayor Blandenburg. He (Blanden-
burg expressed himself as being in ac-
cord with the movement, and remarked
that he would do all in his power to have
the bell sent West, according to Mr..
Bates. The City Council, in whose hands
the final decision lies. was also appealed
to at a meeting yesterday afternoon.
Mr.. Bates stated last night that before
he and the girls appeared before that
body there were but few members who
would cherish the thought OF having the
bell removed from its resting
place In Philadelphia. After their plea
had been presented, 1t was stated, there

BOYCOTT DUE TO STRIKE

Chicago. Juno 1s.-Twenty-ssvsn thou
sand seven hundred men were locked out
on incompleted buildings in Chicago in
the boycott against the Building Trades
Council. instituted today by the Building
Construction Employers Association.
Work on buildings costing S2sooo,ooo was
stopped when contractors on all buildings
in the course of construction were mott
fed that the lockout exists.
The lockout was the result of the failure
to settle the strike Of LEO stonemasons on
the new Continental and Commercial Ma
tional Bank building.
President c. w. Gindele, Of the employ
ers organization, had passed word to
every employer that the union men were
to be kept of their jobs this morning
He and the other members of the execu-
tive committee OF the employers sent
warnings to the officers of the union that
the bank building was amicably settled. a
lockout would be declared against the
Building Trades Council and the men
would be forced into idleness.
Big Labor War Certain.
Every member of the Employers Asso-
citation In under bonds to obey orders of
the executive committee and keep the men
from working as long as the committee
desires.
The declaration of the lockout by the
employers admittedly will cause q labor
war of large proportions. II viii involve
thousands of workers in addition to the
H,7oo automatically forced out Of en-
ployment-
The contractors are backed by the lum-
Der dealers and others who furnish build
ing supplies. Any contractor who vio-
lates the lockout order will forfeit a bond
and suffer a penalty Of blacklist BY the
other contractors in the organization.

but a short while. His examination
was direct, and cross-examination.
the committee informed him, would
be deferred until later date.
Mr.. Stone produced the entire corre-
spondence between himself and c. c.
Hamlin of the beet sugar industry. Mr..
Hamlin had sought from Mr.. Stone to
obtain for the beet sugar industry pub
licity to an extent equal that accorded
an interview given by John Arbuckle on
the date of his departure for Europe in
1911, in which Mr.. Arbuckle declared him.
self in favor of free sugar, giving his
reasons and attacking the domestic su-
gar producers. Mr.. Stone told the COM
mittee that the original story Of the
Arbuckle interview had been obtained by
an Associated Press reporter along with
other reporters and sent out all over
the country.
Later NJ. Hamlin, who. is himself a
member of the Associated Press. gave
an interview to his own paper. The Col
orado Springs Courier and Herald which
is a member of the Associated Press. and
this story was cleared from the Denver
office of the Associated Press.
Story Crowded Ont.
This story was given out at the time
President Taft was In San Francisco, the
world series of baseball games was In
full swing, the automobile races were go
ing on at Santa Monica, Cal, and the
McNamara trial was reaching its crisis.
The Hamlin interview, which was news,
had been crowded out Of the papers. On
behalf Of the Associated Press Mr.. Stone
had carefully explained the circum-
stances of both interviews to Mr.. Ham
lin and had suggested to him that the
next opportunity for the beet sugar men
to obtain any legitimate publicity would
be at the time of their coming Chicago
conference.
Mr. Stone was excused until a later
date. When he is recalled he will be
cross examined with regard to the at
tempt OF lobbyists and legislative agents
to gain publicity through the medium OF
the Associated Press.

A MiLlTARlsT ECHO

Four of the little states of Europe
Switzerland, Belgium, Luxembourg
and Norway-are neutralized by in
ternational agreement. Because of
her geographical isolation this is
safeguard Of comparatively little i'm
portance to Norway, but 1t is of great
moment to the other states. Especial
ly in the case Of Belgium is NATURAL
ization important, for Belgium has al.
ways been the battle-ground Of the ma
tions when Europe has biazed into
war.
The naturalization agreement is a
solemn pact, solemn pacts are not SO
solemn when war breaks out. Belgium
seems to appraise the safeguard at
somewhat below face value. She has
enacted a law to make military train
ing universally compulsory, thus pro-
viding herself with possible army of
100000 men. OF course IL the neutrali
cation were sure, an army OF 100000
or OF thirty men would be superfuous
except for guarding against domestic
disorder.
That Belgium has some cause for
fear is indicated by the question pro-
pounded recently by Socialist men,
Der Of German reichstsg. He inquired
whether or not Germany would re-
spect Belgium neutrality In case Of
war, and received perfunctory
affirmative reply from the war min
lister. That such questions are raised
Is proof that Europe generally places
little faith In the agreements and
guarantees Of modern diplomacy.

RAILROAD LEGISLATION

Much Of the current issue of the Bache Review
is devoted to discussion of legislation that is det
rimenta to railroads, and just cause for grievance
seems tobe found In the fact that regulation has
apparently run mad in its effort to make showing
against the roads. Taking as topic recently print
ed in Railway and Engineering News 1t is shown
that In territory covering eighteen states, with
combined Of nearly 100000 square miles,
there but 1000 miles Of new construction dur.
ing the past year or about one mile Of railroad to
each 100000 OF land In speaking Of the
subject, under the subtitle OF Regulation Develop.
ing Into Ruination," the Review says:
The Interstate Commerce commission was
appointed to carry out the plan OF regulating rail.
ways. The regulation last year consisted largely
in reducing rates to meet the views Of rival ship.
pers and communities and in suspending all ad-
vances except an insignificant few. Under this
treatment the average receipts of the railroads
have been reduced s42,O00,OOO This sum
added to the earnings Of the roads would have
placed their net incomes at sufficiently attrac-
tive figure to have induced investments In their
securities all over the world 1t must be remem.
bered that these reductions are for only one
year."
And thus II goes. Almost every state in the
union has Its coterie Of statesmen anxious to get
a whack at the railroads under the guise Of the
dear people, and when the matter Is simmered down
the railroads have done for the people in a
very short time than all these so called statesmen
will or can do throughout their combined natural
days. This Is day of investigation and the pub.
lie will be glad when the fury has been spent in
order that the country may get down to natural
conditions. G
And judging from reports 1t is also day Of re-
trenchment. There number Of projected roads

of the large roads are going into thehands of

ture Right here in Logan up against the
stern reality. With the completion Of the Ballard
Cutoff new train schedule is in order. We
informed that the schedule was practically agreed
upon with the intention of making II effective last
Sunday. Suddenly the order comes that retrench-
ment is in order, that returns falling short and
the schedule is OF put into effect. Just what the
18th of June, the day now informed for the
change to take place will bring is a matter of
lecture. OF course the trains will run as hereto
fore. but how many OF them will is purely
matter to be determined by the volume OF business
done.

THE VALUE OF A MAN

The late Charles Melville Hays, president of
the Grand Trunk Railway System, drew salary
OF seventy-fve thousand dollars a year Alfred w
Smithers Chairman OF the Grand Trunk Board Of
Directors, has recently said that this was an In.
significant sum to pay to such man. Mr.. Smith
ers AYERS that the services OF Mr. Hays added one
hundred million dollars in assets to the company
in hve years time. Our Socialistc comrades de-
clare that monetary rewards are not in proportion
10 the productiveness of a mans labor. The salary
OF Mr. Hays. however, might be considered excess
sive, from sociastic point of view, since ortho.
dox Socialism provides that we shall all receive a
like amount for our services.
But figure the wages OF Mr. HAYS out in per
cent, and we will find that 1t is infnitesimal ac.
cording to the productive capacity of the man.
There is one woman In America who carr,es
one million two hundred thousand dollars lits In
surance. ] know Of quite a number OF men who
have million dollars, and my experience with in
surance companies has shown me that whenever
an individual applies for two three, four or FIVE
hundred thousand or a million dollars life insur
ance, the record of this man and his productive
value are gone with a fine tooth comb No
one physicians report will satisfy. He is exam
med by different physicians in different cities and
under various conditions. And above all. no man
can get big insurance unless he Is man whose
life is worth the money.
For instance, in order to get a million dollars
insurance on your life, you must be Nm individual
whose loss to the world would be more than mil.
lion dollars II you were snuired out That is to say
you can not over insure individual any more
than you can over insure business property
Hays was very remarkable individual And
yet his virtues were of kind in which We can all
participate. He had strength, patience, persisten
cy; and his freedom from all petty Jealousy, his
breadth of vision, set him apart. He was loyal to
the institution that employed him. He gave an

IGNORANCE ABOUT THE FLAG

A praiseworthy effort is being made
by several newspapers IN various
parts OF the country to popularize the
national ensign and distribute It
among the people by an inexpensive,
though revenue bringing scheme. The
object Is to put in every home flag
suitable to be displayed on all appro-
pirate occasions but 1t frequently hap.
pens that the illustration of the flag
accompanying the announcement ia a
display OF woeful ignorance on the
part OF the artist Endorsed by the NIB.
hshers) OF knowledge OF the form or
the very flag the paper is exploiting.
An instance Of this is found in a new
england paper which displays a large
picture OF the waving flag the blue

slons and so placed as to exceed the
depth prescribed-to the lower edge
OF the fourth red stripe from the ton.
with the intervening three white
stripes; leaving three red and three
white stripes below the blue field the
white stripe In accordance with the
law Of heraldry, next the lower edge
OF the field. Such ignorance of the
simple features Of the flag Of our ma.
ton is reflection upon Intelligent
citizenship which no newspaper should
