years past advocated that city work
be done by day labor, as a result Of
which six thousand men are now en-
ployed by the city of Chicago doing
work that would otherwise be per-
formed under the contract system.
There isn't the slightest doubt that
Mayor Harrison's position is the cor
rect one. In the first place the men
employed by the city receive the high
est wages for the class of work they
perform; and in the next place, the
taxpayers of Chicago get value re-
ceived for the money thus expended.
There is now no such thing as con-
tractors profits; there is no such
thing as skimping the work and using
inferior material and inferior labor,
nor fat extras to be paid later.
Should Mayor Harrison be defeat
ed there is not a doubt that city work
by day labor would be abolished.
Does this concern you? OF course it
does. AS a citizen and employee Of
Chicago; as one interested in your
own welfare; as one who believes
that the best is none too good for
Chicago, we ask you to bear these
important facts in mind when you go
to the polls to cast your vote on Pri-
mary Day. Mayor Harrison has TAX

tecting the citizens and taxpayers Of
Chicago against the greed and aVar-

A POINTER FOR TENANTS
would like to encourage a few able
writer's to donate a few lines on the
subject of the cheap and insulting
renting agent and owner; also the
open shops that do cheap real estate
decorating. The United States is a
union and they teach cleanliness.
They employ union people on their
construction, work Their courts
grant the union scale wages. Then,
to be a good citizen one should har-
monte with the principles practiced
by the government. All tenants
should demand the price of one
months rent each year in new dec
Grating. The best way to avoid the
insults of agents or misery owner
is to have the lease read granting
you the privilege of having your own
decorator, etc. Then the cheap open
shop will soon be thing of the past.
Don't be afraid to be firm in your de-
mands, as rents are being reduced
and rather than have you move and
take chances of losing a months
rent, and besides having to redec-
crate, they viii clean up decently for
you.-A Union Decorator.

HERALD FRIDAY
Man NEARLY DEAD
LIKENS SENSATION
TO DREAM VISION

Alphonse ]. Albert, the Little River
Drainage District employe, who was
struck by Frisco train and hurled in
to pool of water, wher che remained
submerged for five minutes, yester-
day described the sensation of being
nearly drowned.
He regained consciousness yester-
day morning after being in a stuper
for ten hours, and at his request was
discharged from st. Francis Hospital.
He does not remember being struck
by the train, and his only recollection
of being in the water is through
sensation much like a dream. His in
ability to recall being struck by train
is due, his physicians say, to lapse
of memory caused by the accident.
While under the water, Albert says,
he was unconscious Of his condition,
but he experienced a sensation similar
to a dream. In a vision he beheld a
great body of water which seemed to
engulf him, but the sensation was
mora of a pleasant nature than of tor
ture.
He does not remember being taken
from the water, due, he believes, to
having passed into a state of uncon-
seriousness. When he regained his
senses he was in Cape Girardeau, and
before he reached the hospital he was
again unconscious. When he revived
yesterday, he felt normal, except that
he was suffering from bruises sustain
ed from the locomotive.
His body was badly discolored, and
the elbow of his right arm, which was
lacertcd by a cord from the engine,
gave him much annoyance. DR.. Hope,
his physician. says he will not suffer
any permanent injury. DR.. Hope eX-

work after he has rested for a week

FRISCO DETECTIVES TEAR
UP STREET CAR TRACKS
Rails on Wrong Property Are Dumped
on Land Belonging to Trolley
Company.

Frisco detectives, ]. A. Johnson and
Joe Vinson, returned yesterday from
Gravois where they had gone to force
fully settle some differences between
the Gravois street car company and
the Frisco Railroad.
Without any preliminary demonstra-
tions, Mr.. Johnson and Mr.. Vinson,
with large force of laborers, quietly
made their appearance in Gravois and
diligently set to work tearing up the
street car track that had been laid on
the land belonging to the railroad
company.
They devastated a stretch of about
700 yards in length and carried all the
material off their property and dump
ed it on the right of way belonging to
the street car company.
The street car people had built their
tracks eleven miles from st. Louis to
Gravois, and when they reached the
Frisco property, they marked the spot
with a pile of ties, which was used by
the detectives and their men as a land
mark in clearing off the railroad prop
erty.
They met with no resistance while
the work was going on, and the task
was completed before the street car
company was apprised of their inten-
tiOns.
