the story that this is a scheme to get

Conditions Are Quiet.


Conditions were quiet among the min
ers on Paint and Cabin creeks today,
according to the advices which drifted
in from the hills, although the officials
Of the United Mine Workers declared
that they expected further trouble
there soon. The union board for dis
trict 90, which is the New river field,
will meet tomorrow to take up the
questions of strike there, which if de-
clared. it is expected, will involve
nearly $4,000 men, 1t is expected that

ed the position taken by the employers
throughout the present labor dispute,
declaring that they were utterly un.
able to accede to the terms offered by
the miners, although the latter were
willing to withdraw all demands except
that for the recognition of the union.
He went into details as to the negotia-
tiOns between miners and operators
which preceded the strike in April. 1912.
Fight Is Discussed.
Mr.. Morton and others discussed at
length the fight at the miners camp
at Holly Cover on the night Of
February Z, when witnesses for the
miners testified machine gun raked the
town from An armored train. Mr.. Nor
ton fatty denied the statement of Lee
Calvin, an ex-mine guard, called by
the miners, that he had urged that the
train be backed up and that the men
on board "give them another round. -
This statement and Calvin s. declara,
tion that Morton had remarked,
"Didn t we give them hell7' after
the train passed the town, were the dis,
puted points which Mr.. Morton vigor-
ously denied and precipitated the
clash between the witness and Senator
MARITIME, The senator had been ques-

the resentment Of Mr. Morton when
Chairman Swanson announced the noon

No Desire to Control.

With reference to the proposed deal
with the Pennsylvania railroad whereby
the Union Pacific was to trade s3s.O00. 900
OF Southern Pacific stock in return for
stock Of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad
Of substantially the same value. Judge
Lovett explained that there was mo
desire on tho part Of the Union Pacific
to control the Baltimore & Ohio" adding
that II such control resulted, ut would
be merely incidental"
The exchange, II consummated, he
said, would give the Union Pacific about
SO per cent of Baltimore e. Ohio stock.
Judge Lovett secuted the Idea that the
proposed deal with tho Pennsylvania was
forerunner to bringing that road. the
Union Pacific, the Southern Pacific and
the Baltimore & Ohio under the control
OF one banking house.

tuberculosis in EdgertOn.

The death certificates for the past
six years in Edgerton show 20 persons
as victims to tuberculosis. In 1908
there were 5; in 1909, 6; in 1910, 4; in
1911, 2; in 1912, /; in 1913, 2.
The first half of the period shows an
exceedingly high death rate but the
latter part is more normal. The death
rate is yet too high. The University
Extension Division and the Wisconsin
Anti Tuberculosis association have sent
Paul w. Black here with the biggest
general health exhibit in the country to
boost the sale of the Red Cross Christ
mas Seals. This exhibit is yet in the
process of construction and will still be
much larger. 1t is built around the
idea that the contagious diseases are
easily preventable. Edgerton is for
tunate in getting so large an exhibit as
has been open to the public since Mon
day in the Library.
The returns from the sale of the Red
Cross Christmas stamps go to carry on
the big campaign against tuberculosis
in this state. We have about $4,000
cases of tuberculosis in this state and
only about 600 beds to care for them.
1t is up to the broad-minded citizens of
the state to support such a worthy
cause.
Mr.. Black spoke to the high school
on Tuesday morning on several phases
of health He told of the need of bet

giene and showed how under the pres
ent conditions when from 20 to SO per
cent of the pupils are needing medical
attention it is very easy for the con-
tagious diseases to get hold in. the
schools. He also showed how the death
rate from smallpox and typhoid fever
has been greatly reduced by VAGINA
ton, and how the death rate from
diphtheria and lockjaw has been much
reduced by the use of antitoxins. But
the worst of all diseases upon the home
is tuberculosis. There is no vaccine or
antitoxin cure for it. The open air
rest cure is the only way to fight it.
The Edgerton citizens may be COM
mended in their cooperation SO far in
the exhibit and the splendid progress
in the Christmas Seal campaign.

Some of Edgerton's Needs.

The discussion of the civic needs of
Edgerton at the Mems club on Friday
evening brought out variety of mat
tiers where our city might be improved
The Reporter has in view, however,
another matter not yet mentioned of
vastly more Importance to the COM
mercial well being of Edgerton than
any yet suggested and that is what
provision should be made to care for
the housing and boarding of the help
needed this winter in handling the to-
bacco crop through the warehouses of
this city. The largest warehouse in
the state was completed late last sea-
son by the Eisenlohr firm who could
employ 300 or more hands. The United
Cigar Manufacturers Co. have added
largely to their warehouse here this
year and will need from 200 to 300
hands during the packing season. With
the various other firms ready to en-
ploy their usual compliment of help
there will be employment for more peo-
pie than for some years past and which
must be drawn largely from out of
town. The help can be obtained if
provisions can be secured for their
board and lodging, which has been
quite serious problem for several sea-
sons past. A pay roll of $4,000 or
more a week distributed to the ware
house help in Edgerton will prove quite
an attraction to every business interest
of our city for large proportion of the
money is spent right here in this city.
The question is going to come squarely
up to our business men-What is to be
done to provide ways and means to care
for this help? We can hardly afford to
see the tobacco handling business done
elsewhere when little effort would
provide the necessary accommodations
The employment of the laboring classes
at good wages is the life of every town.
Let every citizen come to the front
and assist in protecting the business
we have and can control if we exhibit
the proper civic pride.

Death of John Maltpress, Jr.

John Maltpress, Jr., whose serious
condition was noted in our last issue,
quietly passed away at the Augustine
hospital in ,Chicago, Monday, Deem
Der 9Th, at 11:30 o'clock in the fore
noon. An operation for internal cancer
was performed on Friday and his con-
dition. for the first day following the
trying ordeal was most hopeful, though
the case was considered very critical
one from the start Saturday unfavor
able symptoms were noted and from
that time on gradual decline occurred
until the end.
John Thomas Maltpress, Jr., was
born on the Maltpress homestead south
east of this city, July Fl, 1862. At the
age of eleven he moved with his par
ents to. Edgerton, where he resided for
a number of years and was educated in
the public schools. On October a, 1884,
he was united in marriage to Mary
Alice Litney and two years later moved
to the homestead, which he afterwards
purchased. Seven children were born
to this union, Mable Toynton, Myrtle,
Harry and Eleanor of this city, Bert
who resides on the farm east of this
city, Matte who is attending school in
San Diego, CAL, all surviving, and
Archie, who was called to his home be-
yond February 6, 1905. On June 20,
1909, the family circle was again brok
en- when the wife and mother passed
away. Out of a family of fourteen
children John was the first one to be
taken away in So years, and besides the
father, John Maltpress, ST., who is
now in his 84th year, he is survived by
brothers and sisters as follows: Mrs.
w. Butler of Clinton Junction, Susan,
Royal, Mrs. Greenwood, Mrs. James
Ogden of this city, Joe and Emma of
San Diego, CAL, George of Milton
Junction and Robert of Rockford
John Maltpress was a man who had
the respect and esteem of all, quiet and
unassuming in his ways and dearly be-
loved by his family. In his township
he always took great interest in public
affairs and his opinions were usually
counted on the right side. In 1891 he
Joined the Modern Woodmen of Amer
lea and has held several offices in the
local camp, being Venerable Counsel at
the time of his death. He was insured
in the order for $4,000. ST.
Funeral services conducted by Rev.
North were held from the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Toynton, Wednesday
afternoon at 80 and from the Metho-
dist church at 2 O'Clock. The words
fifty spoken by the pastor, the tear
moistened eyes in the large assemblage
and profuse floral offerings all ex
pressed the deep sorrow for the good
man gone and sympathy for the be-
reaved relatives. Members of the
Modern Woodmen acted as pail bearers
and the remains were laid to rest in
Fassett cemetery.
