that enabled him to have his strike
breakers warned when the arrests
were pending. The strikebreaker
would dart into the restaurant, the
union picket who was absolutely not
responsible for one iota of the excite
ment was hauled away in the patrol
wagon. And the accommodating
patrol wagons made neat and thor

taurants.
At the Dearborn street restaurant
saw the strikebreaker tipped off
three times to get away just as the
arrests were to be made, and in only
one instance did her plan fail.
AS fast as the union pickets are re-
leased from Jail and resume their
peaceful picketing the accommodate
ing patrol again swoops down and
grabs them up and the same thing is
repeated.
And Knab, wealthy restaurant
keeper, takes the signs out of his
window as soon as the arrests are
made and the crowd goes about its
business and he pastes the signs back
as soon as the pickets appear again
and the crowd again gathers.
That is not all. Well-dressed men
hang about these restaurants and say
things to the union girl pickets that
if heard man say to my sister, or
if a man said to me, would throttle
him with my bare hands, and the girls
have got to endure these unprintabIe

Publicity Helps
Dairy inspectors

The following from the quarterly
report OF the state dairy commission
is self-explanatory:
1--WE have found publicity the
strongest factor in improving the con-
ditions. As an ILLUSTRATION, let us
point to the conditions in a southern
Oregon town, where we had the
hearty support and cooperation of
the local paper and women's club. In
January Of this year the five leading
dairies supplying the town with milk
scored from AZ to 81 out OF a possi-
BILE 100 points. The five averaged
r52h. The ratings were published
in the local paper, and also in our
February bulletin. In addition to the
scoring of the dairies, sediment tests
were made Of each dairyman's milk.
These sediment tests, which cannot
we'll be placed in the form of a math-
ematical rating, but which carry very
convincing proof of the cleanliness or
uncleanliness of the methods en-
ployed in the dairy, were, in this in
stance, not altogether complimentary
to the dairies. They were given to
the women's club, who gave them the
widest possible publicity, with the re-

Look, Read and Reason.

Have you seen the lithia springs?
Have you tasted the water?
If not, would not you have been
drinking the water if it was piped
into the park?
What would it cost you to hire a
team or auto and get the water?
What would it cost you to have
fresh lithia water in your house if
there was an auto or trolley line out
to the springs?
How often could you spare the
time if there was trolley line run
ming out to the springs?
What would it cost you to buy bot
tied water?
Then figure what voting the bonds
will increase your taxes in the next
ten years.
Think how handy it would be for
you to take your jug or bottles and
go to the park every day and get
fresh lithia water and take it home
every night to your family. You
need it for medicinal purposes.
The writer has been drinking the
water from the new lithia spring
every day since the spring was devel-
| oped, and | have never found any
thing that has helped my general
health more than it has done.
Do not believe the man that tells
you that the spring has weak flow.
Go and see for yourself. Do not
mind the men who tell you they can
not pipe the water here as good as it
is at the spring. Is not the word of
responsible chemists worth more than
all of the hearsay you can hear on
the street? Remember that the water
does not lose its medicinal properties
if the gas were all taken out.
Think this over and then take all
Of the opposition to the springs and
weight them in a balance against this
one question and see If 1t will not out
weigh them. Can you afford to let
an opportunity like this slip through
your fingers? This is only one of the
many reasons why we should vote the
bonds. B. E. WHITMORE.

suit that every consumer in the town
became aware of the condition of the
milk he was using.
This led to intense rivalry for i'm
provement among the dairymen, and
the scoring in April showed the same
dairies ranging from 50 to so points,
with an average of 62.3, or nearly IL
points average increase in three
months. The sediment tests also
showed remarkable improvement. We
therefore feel very optimistic over
the results of dairy inspection. and
with the momentum the work has at
tanned still greater results are to be
expected in the future"

ton of the muster OF the regiment into

the Spanish-American War. had its an
nual church service and parade.
Under the command of Colonel car
ence S. Wadsworth the $50 men marched
down from the armory, at columbus a''
and SD st, to the Cathedral behind the
regimental band. At the door or the
church they were met by Rt. Rev. Mon
signor VI. J. Lavelle, vicar general, VINO
escorted their commanding officer down
the aisle at the head of the regiment.
Earlier in the day the Sunday morning
throngs on the avenue had seen In the
large American flag which overhung the
rose window OF the cathedral signs OF an
unusual service, and after the men mad
passed in filled up the rest of the church.
Monsignor Lavelle delivered the address
Of welcome to the regiment He said:
II greet you with more pleasure than
words can express and welcome you with
more welcome than the flowers of spring.
| hope this service will teach you the
virtue Of religion, the true success OF
human life. May this bring blessings on
our country. that it may bring TO us the
blessings of peace with honor to our
country, that the sword may remain
sheathed."
Monsignor J. n Connolly, chaplain OF
the regiment, delivered the sermon.

with Baskets of Bread.
TBy cable 10 The TrlLunc.

London. May S.-Two large motor lor-
ries filled with what appeared to be bas-
kets containing bread were rolled
through the principal street Of Belfast in
a leisurely way yesterday. Nobody gave
them a second thought. not even the
policemen on point duty who held up
other traffic I'm order to allow them TO
pass. Had the layer Of baskets been
displaced, however. piles of Mauser
rifles. with ammunition sewn in brown
sacking, would have been disclosed.
The consignment constitutes the equip
ment OF one battalion of the Belfast
regiment of volunteers, and every rifle
was distributed by nightfall These two
loads of Mausers are part of those
landed at Larnc three weeks ago
The work Of distributing the rifles 10
the regiments of the Belfast division is
nearly finished. BY the time the Home
Rule bill leaves the House Of Commons
for the last time all the 10000 men who
form these regiments will have received

WILSON LAUDED AT
MILITARY MASS
Appeal for Peace in Mexico Made
at Memorial Service in
Washington.

Washington. May 17.-Fully fifteen thou
sand persons gathered about the base OF
the Washington Monument this morning
for the military field mass celebrated an
nually under the auspices OF the District
of Columbia Spanish War Veterans In
memory OF those who lost their lives In
the war with Spain.
An improvised altar, in front Of which
sat n group of Catholic prelates. was shell
tered by a flag decked pavilion. On one
side was another pavilion. in which was
a mixed choir of $50 voices. Another
stand was filled with men prominent in
public life. Grouped in front of the semi
circle were delegations from the Knights
OF Columbus, the Ancient Order of HI
bernlans. the Catholic Knights of Amer
lea and other societies.
The Rev. Father J. r. Meagher. o. p.
delivered the sermon. Monsignor William
T. Russell, of st. Patrick's Church. was
in general charge, and the Rev. Eugene
de l.. Mcdonnell, S. j.. pastor of st.
Aloysiuss Church. was celebrant. The
Rev. George Savage. OF Holy Cross Col
lego. Brookland, acted as deacon.
Father Meagher, referring to the Next
can situation in his sermon. lauded the
President as "a patriot whose name
should not be second TO the soldiers who
fought for their country for his efforts
at this critical juncture to insure peace.
After eulogizing the heroes of American
wars, the priest concluded:
And in a similar spirit. and with a
patriotism just as lofty as that of Lincoln
and OF Mckinley, our President to-day
has dared Withstand the outcry of the
rash and the impulsive pleadngs of the
foolhardy and has stopped on the very
verge of war to make an effort truly he
roic, TO preserve peace. And we should
pray the God of our fathers who offered
up their lives that success may attend
his efforts"
