COMPULsORY ARBITRATION.

An editorial in The Day Book says
that arbitration instead Of strikes to
settle wage scales cannot. be made
compulsory by law because that
would take away from the working
man his rights Of freedom.
don't know what the trust press
dope was about the desired law be-
cause 1 never take any any more. I
haven't money and time enough.
1t may seem that a compulsory ar
bitratiOn law would take away the
freedom from the working men, but
the cars should run, the lights should
be ready when evening. comes, the
gas, water ETC., should be available
when needed. These utilities are ne
cessities and useful cOnveniences
needed by the public every day;
hence strikes to settle wage scales
are not only crude, but unjust.
AS it is, it seems that school men
would be best adapted as members of
arbitration boards representing en-
plOyes because they would bring into
play voice and brains which would
not be overlooked by employers
whose children are educated in their
classes.
Why not have an arbitration board
elected at prevailing elections?
The second paragraph Of Mr.. NJ. H.
BIS letter in July 2 Day Book is
either a misprint or he did not read
my letter correctly. I hope with him
for a good result Of the carmen aTbi-
tratiOn. We must bear in mind that
the evolution of man should and must
progress in the direction of using
mental intelligence instead of force
to settle differences, private, munich
pal, national and International
Strikes are too much like brute force. |
It certainly causes brutalities; arbi-
tration develOpes mental intelligence !
more and more and therefore is a |
useful practice, as well as of imme-
date use.

THE CANNON oLIGARCHY."-
The last issue of the official organ"
Of the Catholic Order of Foresters
contains a report Of the proceedings
Of the Illinois state court. Among
other things read where Thomas H.
Cannon, for q years the executive
head and a candidate for another
term, was elected chairman of the
committee to select the delegates to
the international convention, in
which he will be a candidate for a
life term.
Will the frank and file" after read
ing the ''hand-picked" delegates, say
how many of them will dare oppose
another term for the king? In the
same issue appears an official order
Ievying a quarterly special assess
ment of 25 cents on each member
C146,O in ALL, amounting to $780,
500, or $146,OOO annually. If the or
der has a reserve fund of 100000,
and by denying direct representation
would mean a convention of 1900
delegates and a saving of $15O,0OO BIZ
enniaIly, why is a special assessment
amounting to $4,000 bi-annUalIy
levied on the membership? Does this
not look like government without
the consent of the governed?
If the official organ" would only
reproduce this article in advance Of
the international convention the
frank and file" of the order might
awaken to the fact that while the or
der was founded and flourishes in
these United States it is bereft of
democratic ideas and without a re-
publican form of government. In 9TH
er words, it is an absolute monarchy
as despotic as that of Russia

ELEVEN WORKS IN RAIN.
High School Team Has Little op.
portunity to Get Into Shape.

Going thru signal drill, and making
an effort to perfect team play, on a
field partially under water and with
occasional cold rains chilling the play
ers to the marrow. the Marshalltown
high school football team is making a
desperate effort to round into shape
for the West Des Moines game on the
local field next Saturday. The out
look for marked team Improvement is
very discouraging, the team having
been unable to get one good evenings
workout since the opening Of the sea-
son a week ago.
Little can be hoped for under such
conditions, but the squad has heroical-.
ly stuck to its task. Wednesday eve
ming the team was sent thru a stiff
signal drill and worked for half hour
on the forward pass. While the work
was fairly satisfactory the team lacks
finish and may be said to be a week
late in training.
Frequent shifts have been made in
ing the offensive strength of the team.
Lack Of experience in the back field
material is the greatest handicap the
coaches have to overcome. but 1t is
hoped that this department may be
strengthened before Saturdays game.
The line, with the exception of a
weak spot or two. seems At for a real
test, and with it's weight and ex-
perience should be able to stem the

Melbourne, the levy for schools has
been decreased. Probably most Of the
increase in the four towns is for the
interest charge on bonds issued for
buildings, or other expense Of build
ing. 1t will be recalled that Gilman's
consolidated district uses the Gilman
school, There the school levy has
been reduced 1873 mills because there
was no building to pay for At Mel
bourne, where fine building was
built, however, the school levy has
been reduced from 22.6 in 1914 to %.
mills.
But of the four towns that have in
dependent districts. two Of them, Lis
comb and LeGrand, increased their
levy for schools and two State Center
and Laurel reduced theirs. Liscomb
increased her school levy 9.4 mills and
has no consolidated school. LeGrand
boosted her levy 80 mills and has only
an independent school. StatN Center
cut her levy lis mills and Laurel re-
duced hers 81 mills.
However, the table will show tnat
Melbourne. Gilman, and Rhodes, with
consolidated schools. have smaller
school levies than LeGrand with an
independent school, and the three with
consolidated schools. and ST Anthony
In addition, have lower levies Tor
schools than Liscomb. with an indie
pendent school. Also the table shows
that Melbourne, the town of any size
that has the lowest levy for CONSOLE
dated district has a levy that is less
than State Center, which has the low
est levy Of any town Of any size with
out consolidation. The levies in Fer
guson. Clemens. and st. Anthony, with
consolidated schools, are very little
more than Liscomb and LeGrand,
which are independent.

NO levy because of litigation.
Excluding this city 1t will be noted
from the above that seven Of these
teIeSen townssare in consolidated school
4 districts, and four are IN Independent
or township districts. Ferguson must
be excluded from any comparison Of
taxes because no school tax was levied
there in 1914, the school question be-
ing in litigation.
Taxes and this Schools.
| Eliminating then Marshalltown and
Ferguson, there remain ten towns for
comparison. OF these, six are in con-
solidated schools districts and four are
in independent districts.
OF the six towns that have CONSOLE
dater schools, the tax levy for all pur-
poses in four are higher than last
year, and In two they are lower Those
where the total tax levy has been in
creased are Albion, Rhodes, st. An
thony and Clemens. The levy has been
decreased in Gilman and Melbourne.
But proportionately as to number,
more Of the towns without CONSOLE
dated schools increased their tax
levies than those with consolidated
schools. Where it was noted above
that out Of six towns with con-
| solidated schools four increased and
two decreased their tax levies. it is
pertinent to note that of the four with
out consolidated sciiouis three III
creased and only one decreased the
tax levy The increases were at Lis
comb, LeGrand and Laurel. The only
decrease was at State Center.

BUY LOTS TO BUILD.
Thirteenth and Main Street Lots Ae.
tiva-Mrs. MichaeIs Building.

The sale Of two lots at Thirteenth
and Main streets that will probably
mean two r,ore new homes In Electric
addition, and which illustrates the
rapid rise in outlying building lots has
been closed by Fred Gates, William
Lacey, and Harry Hopkins. The first
two have purchased from Hopkins two
lots at the northeast corner Of Thir-
tenth and Main that have Main
street frontage Of 10s feet and depth
Of ninety feet. Gates bought the corn
er lot fronting sixty-two feet on Main.
Lacey got the one next east that has
a frontage Of fifty-six on Main. The
sale price has not been divulged, but
is said to be about $4,000.
Lacey is planning to build a modern
home on mis- lot. Gates also may build
on his. and ii Is quite probably that
he will sell the north forty feet of 1T,
with a. frontage on Thirteenth for an
other building site.
This corner tract has probably Been
the most active piece Of real estate In
the Second ward. 1t has been sold four
times in less than two years. and three
times within six months, each time at
an advance.
Mrs. Helen K. Brock brought it. and
the north half Of the lots. an additional
ninety feet, for $1,000. In March OF
this year she sold the south half that
has just been sold to Gates and Lacey
to Byron A. Beeson for 1880. few
weeks ago Eeeson sold it to Hopkins.
The latest sale price is an advance
of about $1,000 over the price Beeson
paid for it last spring.
Mrs Cerula NJ. Michaels is excavat-
ing for good sized house on the rear
Of her residence property, 301 South
Fourth avenue. The dwelling will front
East Boone street at No. 307. The
house Eus ground dimensions Of 26x37
feet. Will contain seven rooms, will cost
$4,000 Is $500, and will be entirely
modern.
The house stands on ground that
was occupied by barn. 1t was moved
to Eas. State. near Tenth avenue.
where Mrs. Michaels had it remodeled
into a house. Between the new house
and her home Mrs. Michaels may build
another dwelling in the spring.

West High attack with some degree Of

West High attack with some degree Of
success.
There is no way In which to arrive at
a comparison OF the two teams that
would be either fair or logical. The
Des Moines eleven Is made up OF sew
eral members OF last years great team.
with experienced recruits filling the
places Of the men lost by graduation.
According to the Des Moines sports
writer's the team should be as strong as
it was year ago, but West High has
always been slow in rounding into
form and may not prove the fighting
machine it may be expected to be a
week or two later.
1t is a safe conclusion. however, that
West Des Moines will have one Of the
strongest teams In the state this year.
and Saturdays game may be the
severest test for the local eleven this
season.
West Des Moines. with its veteran
back field, has wonderful offensive
strength, but Marshalltown's expert
enced line may reasonably be expected
to hold this attack. What MARSHALL
town can do against the Des Moines
defense Is the main source OF worry.
A wet field will handicap both teams.
the Des Moines back field depending
largely on speed, and Marshalltown's
light backs having little chance to
fight their heavier opponents on sod
den ground Marshalltown's fumbling,
due in great part to a wet ball, has
caused much apprehension as to the
outcome. but the past two evenings the
boys have been handling the ball in
better shape.
Drill Wednesday in breaking up the
forward pass was quite encouraging.
and a great Improvement in this re-
spect should be shown. Tonight will
conclude the practice work for the
week. and the team will rest until Sat-
urday, altho it is far from being the
perfect machine the coaches would
like to send in Saturdays game to
meet Des Moines.
