Big MARATHON TO
Be run MONDAY
RUNNING EVENT AT BOSTON
WILL BE OF 'NTERNAT'oN-
Al INTEREST.

Boston, Mass, April 1S.-At noon
next Monday the pick Of the Ameri-
can and Canadian amateur long-dis-
lance runners will line up for the start
of the eighteenth annual Marathon
race of the Boston Athletic Associa-
ton. While the event is usually
termed the Boston Marathon, it is in
reality an international event. The
winner is conceded to be the cham
pion and the race is usually selected
as the one for the Olympic trials.
Records of the race since its inau-
guration in 1897 show that but one
man has succeeded in winning the
event twice This was John ]. CAT
frey of Hamilton, Ont, who won the
event in 1900 and repeated the trick
the next year. In his second attempt
Caffrey established a record for the
course (2h 29m 20 3-5s), which held
good until 1907, when Tom Longboat,
the wonderful Indian runner, covered
the course in Oh Pam 24s.
Four years later Clarence De Maj
shattered Longboat's record by GOV
ering the distance in Oh 21m 80 3-5s
De Mars record was short-lived. One
year later Mike Ryan, the crack run
ner of the Irish-American A. c. of New
York, waded through the bunch ant
landed home in Oh 21m 10 1-33s. Thi'
record still holds good.
The race next Monday promises t.
take on more of an international char
acter than any of it's predecessors
With Jimmy Duffy Of Hamilton Vic
tor McAnley and Gunner Mackins o
Nova Scotia, Edward Fabre Of Mon
treal and several other distance run
, ners from the Dominion among tn
entries, it will be up to the American
runners to trot at their fastest clip
they would keep the championshi
honors from going across the border
The American runners will includ
! some of the fastest men from NeN
: England, New York and the Middl
. West. The Pacific Coast section wi

GOVERNMENT WAGE
SCALE MAY CAUSE
STRIKE IN PANAMA
EMPLoYEs pIsAPPRovE cENER-
Al REDUCTION ORDERED
BY WILSON.
ADVISE With HOME UNIONS
Executive Order From White House
Prohibits Wages From Being More
Than Twenty-Five Per Cent In Excess
of Those Paid In the United States.
by Associated Press.)

Panama, April 1S.-Much opposition
to reductions in the wage scale OF
skilled labor on the canal has arisen
since the new wage scale was promul-
gated in conformity with an executive
order issued by President Wilson on
February 2, to become operative on
April /, when the permanent govern
ment Of the Panama Canal went into
effect.
The skilled workers have been in
communication with the parent unions
In the United States with the result
that the Metal Trades Department Of
the American Federation of Labor has
Instructed the unions on the. Isthmus
to Immediately begin the formation Of
a Metal Trades Council in Panama.
Several meetings already have been
held at which strong opposition to
any wage reduction was voiced.
Under the terms Of the Adamson
act establishing the permanent gov
eminent of the Panama Canal it is
provided that no one on the canal
force shall be paid more than rs per
cent in excess of the average for
similar work paid in the United States
In conformity with this provision Col
George w. Goethals, governor of the
Panama Canal, issued circular es
tablishing new wage scale. This
provided for considerable reductions
all along the line.
GoethaPs Position.
1t is understood here that Col. Goe
thals personally favors the continue
ton of the present wage scale unit
the period of construction shall hav'
been ended. If this is done the reduc
tions will become effective gradual.
and not until after the construction
of the canal has been fully completed
The various labor unions represent

with the view of obtaining strike sant
ton. 1t is not the immediate inter
ton according to labor leaders hert
to make use of the strike weapon
force the continuation of the preser
scale, but only in an emergency {
such a character as to make its us
necessity.
1t is not anticipated that any oppos
ton to the new wage scale will com
from the numerous clerks and otht
unorganized empolyes on the cam
force. AS yet no active opposition hi
appeared among them although 1t

DEDICATED ON FOURTH
Fitting Exercises One Of Big
Features Of Fourth at

Willmar saw big crowds on the
Fourth. The chautauqua, the young
peoples convention, the Sunday
School picnics, the ball game, the
public exercises. all were well attend
ed.
The flag pole in railroad park was
formally presented to the city at
about 1:40 O'Clock p. m. These exer-
cises included first song, "America"
led by the Mission church choir direc-
ted by Rev. A. J. Osthng. Secondly,
President T. o. Gilbert of the Com
mercial Club presented to Mayor Wei
lin as representing the people of Will
mar, the flag pole from the Willmar
Commercial Club and the twenty-five
foot flag from the Housekeepers' CluD.
Mayor Wellin responded and
pledged his active interest In seeing
to that the flag would be properly
raised on national holidays, and that
It would be turned over to his sue
eessor in Office in as good condition
as possible. Col. Geo. w. Balm of Ken
tucky was then introduced and made
brief but eloquent speech of the sig
nifcance Of the flag and the patriotic
devotion to it by a reunited country.
The Mission Choir then sang "The
Star Spangled Banner" and the ofIici-
ally appointed flag-raiser, G. p. Kar-
wand, pulled the rope that released
the flag. Several hundred small flags
and paper streamers were released
from its folds and as they ,aoated to

AGAINST
HOG CHOLERA
A Few Points To Be Remembered
About This Plague to
Swine Breeders.

The Minnesota Live Stock Sani-
tary Board has issued the following
information about hog cholera, which
we publish at the request of County
Agent Poe:'
When several hogs die within a
short time, it may be safely assumed
that the disease is hog cholera.
The following instructions should
be closely followed:
Report the matter at once to the
health Board of your township.
Bury or burn at once all hogs which
have died of any disease.
Conf1ne the hogs to enclosures re-
moved from the public highway.
Clean and daily disinfect hog pens
and enclosures by sprinkling with the
following solution: Compound solution
of cresol, U. S. p, part to 30 parts
soft water.
Burn all litter and manure gather.
ed from pens.
Dogs must be tied up since they
scatter the infection. -.
Wagons or hog racks used to re-
move dead hogs must not be taken on
the public highway.
Only the one whose duty it is to
feed the animals should be allowed
near the pens, this attendant to keep
away from neighbor's hogs.
AS preventive measures when the
disease exists in the neighborhood
the following precautions should be
observed:
Do not visit your neighbor's hog
pens or enclosures nor allow any un
authorized person to go into your own
hog pens or enclosures.
Keep your dog tied up.
Confine your hogs to small dry pens
or enclosures.
Disinfect the troughs daily will
above solution.
Hogs sold for breeding purposes
should be Grated and expressed, ant
not allowed in any stockyard. Th'
law explicitly states that no hog ma.
be taken from stockyard except TO
| immediate slaughter.
| Hogs recently purchased for breed
ing purposes should be kept isolate'
for at least two weeks, before bein'
placed with other hogs
Do not think your hogs are immune
from this disease. Every effort shoul'
be made to follow the above instruc
tions, as they are for your benefit.
Intelligent prevention is much NOR
satisfactory than treatment.

marriage and divorce was an inter-
esting effort which was enjoyed by
a large audience.
The advance sale of season tickets
reached $1,32O, and the total receipts
have reached the $4,000 mark at this
writing. Willmar believes in having
good big chautauqua, something a
little stronger and little better than
any of her near neighbors can put on.
Plans for next year have already been
discussed by the executive committee
and if they meet with the approval
of our people will give Willmar an un-
excelled session in 1915.
