drivers can have Sunday off.
President Hughes says that So to
80 per cent of the bakers are willing
to give the drivers their Sunday, but
if a few hold out it may force all the
others to insist on Sunday delivery,
too, or lose business to the few; and
that would mean seven days a week
work for 1000 bakery drivers.

"RAIL RIDERS" WILL PROBABLY
HAVE TO STAND TRIAL
It is probable that the VOlo, H.,
women who outraged not only their
sex but civilization by riding Mrs.
John Richardson out of town on a
rail after they had practically torn
her clothing from her and then
dumped her into a Shiny pool, may
have to stand trial, according to
States Attorney DAILY, of Lake coun-
ty.
Mrs. Richardson arrived in Chi
+ ago and hid for a night in hotel,
then she went to the home of her
sister, but she is in such a state of
collapse and so badly injured that it
was necessary to take her to a hos
pital
cit is just the gossip of a small
town." she told her sister 81 would
not join their card games and that
made them angry. Then 1 came to
Chicago with Mr. DUnnill to buy gro
ceries for my husband, because he
could not, come himself, but there was
no foundation for the gossip"
The husband says he has perfect
faith in his wife and he mOrtgaged
his store that she might get away
after the episode. He will not talk
very much because his business is in
Volna, and it is impossible for him to.
get away just at present.
Mrs. Richardson's brother, George
Kibler, of Palatine, will go to Volo
and take out warrants for the arrest
of the women implicated in the af-
fair.

ASSOCIATION provided itself with
what might be called a business ad-
ministration. The association, be-
cause of recent impressions which
have gone abroad, has found itself
under necessity to organize along
almost lines entirely different from
those which have been pursued here
t0fore. The association. in fact. is
putting itself in position to be of
genuine service TO the retail dealers

concentrated far more upon the
things of a business nature done for
business people, than upon the con

elected r. f. Cannon as president.
Mr.. Cannon is a shrewd. forceful re-
tail dealer who is able to impress
himself, not only upon the two
state organizations of which he is a
member, but upon his own communi-
ty and upon the politics of his own
state.
AN idea Of the position which Mr.
Cannon holds in the coal trade of
the state of Illinois can best be
summed mp in this one statement.
Last fall when the Democrats swept
the country and put a Democrat ad-
in charge of affairs in
Illinois, it was realized that the old
Republican railway and warehouse
commission would probably go out
OF Office and be replaced by one of
Democratic PERSUASION Coal men in

lection of the commissioners 1t was
believed and declared in producing
wholesale and retail circles that the
coal business of this state was suffic-
lent important tc warrant a member
Of the trade or one familiar with
that trade being selected rs mem
Der of this commission. Operators
hunted among their members to find
one who was satisfactory; whole
salers searched among their mem
bers TO find one who would fill the
bill, and the retail dealers did the
same thing. As a consequence Of all
this researche it has been almost
suggested that R. F.
Cannon would be the ideal represen-
tatiye of the coal interest of the
state.
