NEW COOPERATIVE LABOR
PLAN.

In a recent address in Chicago, an
official of the United States Depart
ment of Labor, in explaining the plan
by which that department in coopera-
ton with the Department of Agri-
culture and the Postoffice Department
hopes to minimize unemployment and
at the same time relieve the labor sit
uation in the rural districts, estimat-
ed that not rs per cent of the men alb
solutely necessary in the wheat belt
at harvest time could find employ
ment there during the rest of the
year. Moreover, it was difficult for
the farmers to calculate far in ad-
vance the exact number of men that
would be required to get in their crop.
In consequence great army had to
be modified at very short notice,
utilized for a brief time and then dis
banded. This was the difficult prob
lem which had to be solved before
any plan could be truly effective
At the present time host of men
passes annually from northern Mex
leo into Texas working its way, as
the season advances, northward to the
Dakotas This army is, however. only
nucleus; it contains less than half
the men required for the harvest. Ii
must, therefore, be recuited from the
outside, a more difficult matter than
might be imagined for not every man
who is in search Of work is fitted for
The harvest field. The question OF
transportation also complexities the
situation. Harvest hands are not
usually rich in ready cash and what
they have they are not likely to risk
in long journeys in search of oppor-
tunities that may not exist.
The first step, therefore, is to for
see where and when and how much
labor will be wanted. In this the
crop correspondents of the depart
ment can be of gerat service. They
are in better position than the aver
age farmer to estimate the prospects
in their several localities and the pro-
bable need for labor. The farmer
himself however, is being asked to dc
his part. Under the plan now in force
any employer in need of men can fill
out blank to be obtained at the
nearest postoffice which is forwarded
to the local headquarters of the De-
| partment of Labor Among other
things the prospective employer is
aked to state on this card whether or
not he will advance transportation
and if SO on what terms he expects to
be repaid. Similar cards are provided
for men in search of employers In
this way applications for men and ap.
plications for jobs are matched
against each other.

Casters Date Depends on the Moon

1t is we'll known that Easter Sun
day seldom, if ever, falls upon the
same day of the month two years in
succession. Indeed, it does not al
ways appear in the same month, for,
while it usually comes in March, this
year it comes in April. This varia-
ton is traceable to the phases of the
moon. Easter Sunday is always the
first Sunday after the first full moon
of spring, As spring begins on Mar
2lst, this means that Easter Sunday
never comes earlier than March p or
later than April IS.

Instead when Councilman Adams made
a motion to cancel the contract no
second was received, And further "hc
(Adams) said that he had been advised
by the city attorney that there were
grave doubts as to the legality Of the
contract"
Peculiar is it not that with mat

city council should with one exception

attorney intimatcs, we are paying out
annually several thousand dollars un-
der an agreement which is not legal
and as many Of US believe IS too much
for what we receive, 1t should be some
body's business to look into the mat
ter If the city attorney has brought
the attention OF our council to this
matter and they refuse to take any ac-
ton then as taxpayer | suggest that

BRILLIANT FEAT
BY THE FRENCH

-----~---.
Heroic Dash made by Republics Sol.
diers to Summit Of Fortified Peak.
Paris, April A vivid description
OF the capture by the French Of the
summit Of Hartmanns-W Weilerkopf,
peak Of the Vosges mountains Ca few
miles north of Thann), is given in an
official war Office communication to-
day. The occupation Of the height
was announced March q. The final
phases of the struggle for, this I'M
portant strategic point are thus pic
tured by the French military observ-
cr:
"a small number OF soldiers who
reached the summit early in January
and established a position in a small
fort were forced to surrender on ac-
count Of starvation, notwithstanding
many continued efforts Of their COM
rades to succor them. All the troops
were now aroused by a spirit OF re-
yenge and were only too eager for
the attack. During the remainder Of
January and February siege opera
tions were carried out and on March
5 all assault was made. The Ger
man trenches were subjected to heavy
artillery fire and our men captured
the strongest German block houses
and portion Of the first line Of
trenches. The enemy made four vigor-
Gus countcrattacks but was rcpulscd
by our forces.
con March 23 the greatest effort was
made undor cover Of the tremendous
cross fire from our black mouths can

rapid fircrs. These could be seen fall
ing and also portions of German bodies
flying high in air. Our infantry made
a heroic charge, pouring like a living
stream into the two lines of trenches
under q wall of fire.
violent German counterattacks
were not sufficient to drive out our
men, who continued to look forward
to the other lines Of German fortifca-
tions.
"The night Of March % passed with
out countcrattacks and the morning
dawncd without the usual fog, allowing
a splendid Opportuni ty for our artil
lery.
"a general bombardmcnt was be-
gun by our artillery at 1890 o'clock,
continuing utni 2:30 and sweeping cv-
crything before it. Large pine trees
were sawed off, disclosing concealed
German batteries and fortiiications.
The ground was strewn with portions
of the bodies of dismembcrcd soldiers.
at 2:3j o'clock, with a tremendous
rush, our troops made a concerted cf
fort capturing the cncmy's position
and sweeping all before thcm. They
reached the summit shortly after. On
the highest point, despite the continu-
Gus rain Of shot and she'll ono OF our
infantrymcn waved the fig triumphant-

dropped their arms in fight. We cap

Our success was pushed over tho
