Caused by New Law

Cleveland, O., March 3.-With few ex- captions every Ohio coal mine closed to- night indefinitely. It is estimated 50,00l men were thrown out of employment. The last legislature enacted law to lay miners on a run-of the-m mine basis, instead of on the prevalent screen pay ment plan and this law caused the pres Gnt shut down.
 Although the new wage system does not become effective until May 15. oper- atorS refuse to renew wage contracts, which expire tomorrow. until conditions become more settled. They declare oper- ators in adjacent states who have re- newed wage contracts on the old screen basis have an advantage that will make competition by Ohio mines unprofitable Ohio miners fought 30 years for an anti scteen law

 Varieties to Plant
 Now that the work of the garden has begun in earnest, and some of the more experienced or venturesome have some thing to show for their early staEt. sup pose be begin to prepare for that success cession. Do not make the mistake of taking just any sort" of seed That would be sad mistake. For the plant inss which should be made every two or three weeks from now until July l. the main crop seeds can be safely planted. After that time only the "early" varieties should be used as they come to maturity earlier than the late kinds Until Sep tember l5 you can SOW bush beans, beets, carrots, sweet corn and early peas. Until October l5 SOW lettuce, radish, spinach and early turnips. You will be surprised how late. with average season, you will be eating these choice things from your garden. Supply yourself now with seeds if you propose trying this successive plan. Get early kinds for last plantings.

STATE VOTE 422,241 BY FINAL
RETURNS.
Governor Leads Ticket, Having .
Plurality Over Hamilton of
3O.O61.

With the receipt of unofficial re-
turns of the election from Palo Alto
county, the data in the Office of the
secretary of state is complete for the
publication of statistics on the cleo
tion Nov. 8, 1914, in the Red Book.
The reports show that the total vote
on governor was 432,241, and that
the prohibitionist party again failed
to have 2 per cent of the total vote.
and can not participate in the next
primary.
The unofficial returns on governor
are: Clarke, r. 214,S51; Hamilton, d.
i183,99O; Smith, prob. 1904; White
prog. 1899; Wilson, S. 8,977.
The socialists had a narrow mar
gin of safety over the 2 per cent
mark, but it has sufficient to retain
its title as political party of Iowa
under the primary law. According
to the unofficial figures the plurality
of Clarke over Hamilton was 3O,69l.
Clarke polled 214,S51 votes to
205,S32 for Senator Cummins who
headed the ticket. The total vote for
United States Senator was 427,1O2.
The vote for Cummins, r. 205,832;
Connolly, d. 167,251; Christian prob.
5000; Schenk, prog. 1908; McCril-
lis, s. S,462; Spurgeon, ind. 24,49O.
The vote on governor was greater
in all parties than the vote on Unit
ed State senator. The governor is
recognized as the head of the ticket
and all political adjustments are
made with reference to the vote on
governor

Conductor Joe Lane Killed at Dar-
lington Thursday Morning.

Conductor Joseph A. Lane, a pop
ular freight conductor who has been
running on the Chariton-St. Joe div
ision for some years, was instantly
killed at Darlington, Mo-, about s.
O'Clock last Thursday morning, when.
the second section of No. s119 crash
ed into the way car of first No. lib
which was standing on the main line.
Conductor Lane left st. Joe In
charge Of first No. 119 about 4
o'clock Thursday ,sqSorning, and on
account of the heavy work second
section followed about an hour later.
The first section had finished their
work at Darlington and were waiting
for time to leave, conductor Lane be-
ing alone in the way car at the time.
The second section came bowling into
Darlington and ran into the train on
the track, the engine plowing clear
through the way car. Conductor
Lanes body was not found until the
engine was backed out of the wreck
ed car, which was split in twain, and
it was found he had met death in-5
stantly, his forehead being caved In.
There is a sharp curve at Darlington
and this prevented the engineer OF
the second section from seeing the
other train. Conductor Joseph
Mooney and engineer c. c.. Childa
were in charge of the second section.
The deceased was 81 years of age
and is survived by his wife. He waa

Iwenty-Eight; Years.

With this issue of The Reporter
the editor completes tWenty-eight
years service as editor of the paper.
When we arrived in Leon on New
Years morning, 1887, there was not
much town here, and what there was
of it was covered under about four
feet of snow. The snow was banked
up along the walks on the west side
of the square so you could not see
a team out in the street. 1t had been
shoveled and shoveled off and piled
up like mountains. At that time there
was not cement sidewalk in the
town, no paving, no waterWOrks, no
fire protection of any kind, and many
of the business houses were old
frame buildings. Leon is quite diff
ferent town from what it was then,
and The Reporter is quite different
paper from what it was then too. At
that time it occupied the single room
over the Exchange National Bank,
now used by DR.. Rowell rs his office.
The pape was a dinky five column
paper and we had to print it one
page at time on job press. There
was not enough type in the Office to
set more than two or three columns
of reading at once, and our paper
cutter was common shoe knife.
Had any one predicted to us then
that we would have lived to see The
Reporter set on linotype, printed
on big press run by electricity and
the papers folded by folder attach
ed to the press, we would have con-
sidered him fit subject for the bug
house. Twenty-eight years is long
time on one paper, and record
equalled by but few publishers in
the country. In starting on our twen-
ty-ninth year as editor of The Re-
porter we wish all Of our readers a
happy and prosperous New Year.

WILL SOON BEGIN TO TAKE CEN
SUS.
Material for Taking Count of IOwan>
is Sent to Assessors.

The last of the material for taking
the 1915 census has been sent out by
A. U. Swan, director of the census.
Every assessor in the state has been
given cards on which to register the
name and date regarding every resi-
dent in Iowa, together with blanks
for reporting to the state as the work
progresses.
On Jan. 2, the work of taking the
census is expected to be begun in all
rural districts in Iowa. 1t may also
begin in the cities, but the instruc-
tions contain suggestion that lit
tie delay may be proper in cities so
as to give the legislature time to con-
slider a bill to postpone taking the
census in cities until May or June.
AS far as the census is concerned
housewife has no occupation. The
census takers are to be instructed not
to credit a housewife or daughter
with any occupation if she works in
her own home without pay Women
who are employed outside Of the
home at regular pay are to be re-
corded with the wage earners. The
matter of collecting data regarding
the occupation, the amount earned in
1914 and the months employed is said
to be one of the most important parts
for the 1915 census Everyone will
be required to answer, the questions
of the census taker, and the census
man will be under oath to treat all
such information as confidential. Per-
sons who refuse to give the census
man the proper information may be
subpoenaed and be compelled to
answer the questions.
The work of the enumeratOrs will
be somewhat heavier in 1915 than it
was in 1905 when the last census was
taken. There are number of addi-
tional questions to be asked. In cities
in the outlying districts where there
are truck gardens, a special card has
been prepared for the reporting of
the crops. In rural districts the cards
to be used provide for reports on the
farm yields as to field crops and
stock and financial condition of the
farmer

Gus Pryor Has Hard Luck.

A. NJ. Pryor thinks he played in
the hardest luck of any man in Deca-
tur county on Christmas. All unbe-
known to his family Gus swore off
using tobacco three weeks ago, and
on Christmas morning when he in
vestisated his presents he found
that with rare thoughtfulness he had
been kindly remembered by numer-
our relatives who knowing his fond
ness for smoking had presented him
with several boxes of fine cigars, a
new pipe, ash tray, and other things
to delight smoker, and his daugh-
ter-in-law, Mrs. Guy Pryor, of Colo
RADIO Springs, Colorado, sent him a
fine smoking stand with numerous
conveniences. 1t makes Mr.. Pryor's
mouth water to see them all, but he
says he is going to stick to his reso-
luton and will invite in his friends
to smoke up the cigars and use the
other articles.
