The Chicago, Rock Island & Gulf
railway is separate corporation of
the Rock Island Lines and is organ
lied under the laws of Texas, which
require general offices and a "home
government of all corporations. The
railway includes nearly 500 miles of
lines in Texas, a part of the third dis
trict of the system over which Presi-
dent Jones is general manager. The
road operates nearly rs locomotives
and more than 2,100 cars.
Jones Is a Rock Island Man.
Charlie" Jones. as every old timer
knows him, is a product of the Rock
Island road. He began his official ca
reer on the Rock Island at Horton,
where he held his first Office as train
master. Before that time he was lone
of the boys" down in the ranks along
the Kansas division working out of
Herington and other Kansas points
After his position as trainmaster at
Horton, Mr.. Jones was made superin-
tendent of the Kansas division of the
road with headquarters at Herington.
He was promoted later to the superin-
tendency of the Illinois division at
Rock Island.
Following this promotion, Mr.. Jones
received his first big advance-he was
made general superintendent of the
southwestern district with headquar-
ters in Topeka. He was in Topeka for
number of years as general superin-
tendent and is we'll known in railroad
circles in this city.
From here he went to the general
superintendency of the first district at
Rock Island and when the entire Rock
Island road was divided into three dis
tricts a little more than two years
ago, Mr.. Jones finally was appointed
general manager of the third district,
including the Arkansas, Louisiana, In
dian Territory, Panhandle, Oklahoma,
Amarillo and Southern divisions.
He is now president of the Chicago,
Rock Island &. Gulf road and general
manager of the third district.

Labor Strike I'm South Africa.

johannesburg, July "A strike
has broken out in the Rand district,
which threatens to tie up the entire
gold mining industry of South Africa.
The dispute arose from a simple
question about working hours in the
new Kleinfontein mines and from
there gradually spread over the
whole country until the situation be-
came so serious that troops were
called out to protect property. The
leaders of the unions have called a
general strike and the men have
promised to respond. The closing also
Of some coal mines has aggravated the

A STATEMENT.
In Connection With the DoIley Charges
Against ID. A. MOunDay.

In the article in Tuesdays State
Journal setting forth an interview from
J. N. Dolley in defense of the blue
sky law from a suit testing its consti-
tutionaIity, the former bank commits
sioner declared that other companies
besides the American Sugar Refinery
company were behind the suit. He went
further to declare that these COM
panies'' were 'unscrupulous.' It is a
matter of inference as to whether he
included the American Sugar company
within his allegations or intended just
TO designate the unknown and unmen-
toned companies.
The State Journal used the Dolley
statement in quotations for its news
value but marked out the word ''un-
scrupulous'' in the first paragraph as
too strong a word to fit the occasion.
1t was used twice. however, in the
story and appeared in the last para
graph of the article.
The fact is very much regretted, as
Don A. MounDay, president of the sugar
company referred to, is well known
Topeka citizen and nothing in his pub
lie or business life here would war
rant such a statement either by direct
or indirect inference. The fact that
the Dolley charge was vague and un-
certain as regards the sugar company
does not in any way mitigate the re-
gret of this paper that such an infer
ence should have appeared in any
connection with his company.
Dolley may or may not have facts
to bear out his statements. But the
State Journal wishes to state that SO
far as it knows the MounDay company
bears an excellent reputation in the
state and would no more be connected
by this paper with doubtful business
allegations than any other of a dozen
we'll known manufacturing companies
of the state. Be it understood the
Dolley statement did not refer directly
to the American Sugar company as
being INSCRIPTIONS, or it would never
have appeared in this paper. The
statement referred to unnamed COM
panies that were alleged to have join
ed in a jackpot to test the blue sky
law and left a doubt as to whether
the company that really brought the
suit was included IN this category.
But at that this papers intention was
to eliminate the Objectionable word
from the article and its regrets are
herewith expressed to Mr.. MounDay
for the injustice apparently done to
him and his company.

HARVARD WILLING

According to Reports. ,
BY C. W. SWAN.

Boston. Mass, Nov. p That Virginia
will obtain a date with the Crimson
football eleven was admitted this after
noon by a member Of the Harvard Ath-
letic Council, who said that the Chariot
tesviIIe collegians were being consid-
cred for a date early in November, Just
previous to the Princeton and Yale COM
bats.
Should Harvard give Virginia a game,
which appears to be settled fact here,
Georgetown will be without big game.
Virginia would be a good drawing card
in Boston, as the Southerners are very
popular here.
A story printed recently in a Boston
paper, to the effect that Harvard had
been asked for a game by Virginia,
aroused a great deal of comment, and
it is practically assured that Virginia
and Harvard will clash on the grldlron
next fail.
As soon as this game is arranged II
is understood that Virginia will sever
athletic relations with Georgetown. Then
Holy Cross will more than likely figure
