Officers of the various brotherhoods
of railway employees are discussing
what would happen to the railroad
employees If United States Commits
sioner of Labor c. P. Neil and Judge
Martin A. Knapp of the commerce
court should retire to private life.
These two men are credited with some
of the greatest settlements of labor
disputes that have arisen, and there
is a fear that their successors might
not be as successful. Through their
efforts nearly 100 railroad strikes have
been averted. 1t is said that few men
know how to handle dispute between
railroad employees and the railroad of
flcials, and that it would require years
TO make them as competent as Messrs.
Nell &pd Knapp. They were the first
to make the Erdman act a success.
They have the respect of the union
officials and the company officers as
well. Every move that can be made
by either side is known to the govern
ment officials and many times they
have brought peace because Of this
knowledge.

5Y ROBERT ?. WILSON.


Washington-After March 4 of this
year General Isaac R. Sherwood, the
grand old man Of Toledo" will be the
only civil war union veteran left in the
house of representatives. And it is
80 to that he will be the last to
serve in the lower branch of congress.
II may come as a sort of a shock
70 the country to know this. Up TO
few years ago the gallant band that
fought on the north side at Murfrees-
boro and Gettysburg gave congress its
most numerous class of men. But in
recent years their ranks have been
thinning at an alarming rate. In the
present dying house there are four
members Of the Grand Army of the
Republic. Three Of these, Hill of
Connecticut, Thistlewood of Illinois,
and Da.zell OF Pennsylvania, staunch
republicans all. went down in the
democratic landslide last fall. Sher-
wood, a democrat. survived; and thus
Of all-those who wore the blue from
81 to 50 he alone is to be a member
OF the house in the SD, congress.
The others are too old to try to
come back 70 congress again. Young
or men now have the political and
physical strength 10 be successful in
the race From the lips of General
Sherwood viii come the last personal
union recollections of the war to go
into the congressional record.
General Sherwood bears his distinc-
ton proudly. Although he is n years
old. six feet OF stature is held erect
as a youths. The Grand Army will
have no cause to be ashamed OF its
last representative in the house.
And it is fitting, too, that the old
army should have in its last repre-
sentative q man Of General Sherwood's
military record. He is as typical Of
the democracy Of American military
service as any man ever sent to con-
gress By the people.
General Sherwood enlisted at the
outbreak of hostilities as a private.
He was discharged at the end of the
war as a brevet brigadier general.
Every step of the way up his promo
tions we're won by personal valor.
Probably no man on either side
fought in more engagements than did
General Sherwood. For four years he
was in almost continual battle. Sew
eral times he was slightly wounded,
but never so severely as to incapacI-
tate him.
Tho fierces+ 0agemept in which he
took part was the battle OF Franklin,
Tenn, which has been called the Get
/ tysburg of the West" and pronounced
/ by international students the bloodi-
I est engagement of modern warfare.
The battle lasted only so minutes but
/ In that time both sides lost so per
cent Of their troops killed, wounded
OF captured.
It was a sudden, fierce grspple IN
paralleled for murderous violence.
Contrary to the plan in every other
battle OF the war. the generals on
both sides led their troops in person
That fact explained the unprecedent-
ed rate Of casualty among the officers.
On the confederate side the highest
officer left in General w. A Quarles'
brigade was a captain That night
when the roll of the First Missouri
infantry was called, but 100 of the 500
who had gone into the battle respond

General Sherwood was a colonel in
this battle. Almost at the first shot
his horse was killed under him.

General Sherwood today is in the
best OF physical condition. He ap

fact that he has never used tobacco

AT THE NORMAL
THE GERMAN PLAYS

The German Comedies" given
by the students of the German De
partment of the Normal school on
Friday evening of last week, were
a great success. In spite of the
extremely bad weather there was
very large audience.
In the first comedy, "Versalzen, F."
(oversalted)o each of the four
players, Margaret Currier, Rose
Gregor, Adeline Paff and Hazel
Vaughn, deserve especial mention.
The second, Katie Klatsch, +"
consisted also of four actors. Mar
garet Currier acted the part of the
hostess; Elizabeth Rummele, an
old gossipper, Dorothy Round
sevelll, an aristocratic lady, and
Hazel Vaughn, another old Cos
slipper. The quarrel that resulted
from the Boosting of these women
produced much merriment in the
audience.
The third, English Spoke Here"
was the most complicated and the
longest of the three. The leading
part, that of the merchant, was
played by Adeline Paff. Her play
ing was a credit to herself and gave
much pleasure to the listeners.
Bess Buck, as the maid, and Norma
MILFORD, as the Mexican, kept the
audience in a constant state of
laughter whenever they appeared.
Others taking part were Rose
GregCr, Constance Gilbertson, Inez
Upgren and Vivian Higgins. Each
played her part in a highly COM
mendable manner.
Much of the success of the even
ing's entertainment was due to the
hard work and skillful training of
Miss linn. She has good reason to
feel proud of her girls.
Music was furnished by different
members of the faculty during the
intermissions.
