In anticipation of strike and

come familiar with their side of the
CONTROVERSY a pamphlet setting
forth their demands, their reasons
therefor and other Information
concerning the actions. has been
issued by the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers and the Brother
hood OF Locomotive Firemen and
Hostlers on the western railroads.
The stand of the employees is ext
planned in the pamphlet as follows:
In October, 1913. committees
representing all locomotive engi-
neers. firemen and hostlers on
western railroads presented re-
quest to their respective manage
ments for an increase in wages and
improved working conditions,
accompanying the request with the
usual notice required by existing
schedule that within thirty days
the schedule would be open for re-
vision.
Immediately the railroad manage
ments served notice on all. the en-
Rinemen,s committees that all exist
ing schedules would be terminated
within thirty days. thus, for the
first time in the history of railway
negotiations taxing from railway
employees schedules that had requir-
ed more than thirty years. in many
U service period be substituted for
the mileage basis of pay, q basis
long in effect on practically all
railroads. Negotiations between
committees representing the rail-
roads and the enginemen culminat-
ed in both committees submitting
revised propositions, the railroads
insisting upon e modified form of
their service period and the EN-.
Rinemen insisting upon retaining
the mileage basis of pay aud allow.
ance Tor extra work as in the past.
Upon submitting the matter
the engineers, firemen and hostlers,
it was learned that by an almost
unanimous vote the proposition of
the managers was rejected and a
strike approved.
Upon the supposition that the
federal board of mediation and
Cancellation VIII propose arbitra-
ton, as directed 10 the federal law,
the enginemen will necessarily re-
ject any proposal to arbitrate be-
cause in al recent arbitration rsiI-
roads have repudiated arbitration

thereby.

SIERRA COUNTY TAX REPORT

Santa Fe, July S.-The most COM
plete, most thorough, and in most re-
spects most exact of all of the assess
ment rolls thus far received by the
travelling auditors Office is that from
Sierra county, the sixteenth to come
in. 1t is believed that the assessor
of that county comes nearer to actual
valuations than the assessor of any
other county. Sierra is also one of
the few counties whose taxable assess
ment for this year exceeds that fixed
by the board of equalization last year.
Tie total valuation is $5,037, ,440 or a
million dollars more than Sandoval
county which has four times the po-
pulation and at least twice the wealth.
Th exemptions are $1O5,O39 and the
taxable assessment $1,644,134 as
against $1,62S,9SO last year and ST.
644,O63, the amount fixed by the board
of equalization.

THE MOTHERS DUTIES

steady nerves, there are apt to be
lapses in mentality and morality.
1t is also true that a defective
mentality or a low morality lessons
the other two. A stable, capable life
structure needs an abundance of all
three, Any inheritance short of this,
handicaps the child
But nursing, nurture and shelter
are the least that the child demands.
The next set of duties toward him
pertain to his mental growth, to his
education and training. Though the
Individual child may not realize 1t,
and may not eagerly accept it, his Is
the right to have the teaching, the
, culture and the training which will
fit him for usefulness in society. Then
there are those duties that develop
the ethical and spiritual child. The
neglect of any of these duties checks
his highest development and bars
him from his happiest sphere in life.
While being punctilious about our
own duties, we must not neglect the
important teaching of the child's
duties to himself. He needs to know
what he owes himself, what he can
and should do for himself, and of the
| many things which he will be bound
by moral obligation to do, or to re-
| frain from doing"

Songs for Children

If the mothers of community can
start movement to popularize the
old songs, putting them into the
home, the schools, the social hours.
and giving them a place above that
of the cheap popular song 1t will be
a long educational step. They have.
all of them an appealing note that
will make them quickly interesting
to children. 1t isn't the fault of our
boys and girls that dangerous sem
timentality is the burden of their
singing.
They demand the lyric, the emo
tional in their adolescent develop
ment and, not recognizing this fact,
we have left them alone to satisfy
this need as best they could.
The musical taste of the average
child is good. He prefers MOLLY
Bawn" to Annie Rooney" Because
he has never been introduced to
Molly Bawn" and has picked out
on the home piano the waltz rhythm
of Annie Rooney his music taste
is perverted and he spends his pocket
money on the songs of the day.
Put a volume of fine old ballads
on the piano, and begin your chili's
education, not only in song. but in
romance.-Mother's Magazine.
