ficetion Of evidence given before the
commission yesterday by Charles H.
Markham president Of the Illinois Gem
trial was given today to A. o. Wharton,
president OF the railway employees de-
partment Of the American Federation OF
Labor, James ]. Mayer, former president
of-the machinists local at Clinton, Ill,
and j. L. McCreery Of Paducah, Ky,
Much OF the testimony dealt with Mr..
Markham's expressed fear OF the plan of
the men to form declarations OF craftsmen
by railroads instead of having the crafts
belong to strictly craft unions.
Under the old plan the railroads were
able to play one union against another.
and the expense Of seeking redress of
grievances was too great 10 be borne by
the weaker unions said Mr.. Wharton.
His fear that the railroad members OF
certain crafts would be dominated by
members not employed by the railroads
was unfounded.
1.-THE system federation plan provides
that the grievances of the railroad men
shall be considered only by those men,
and not by members of the craft not sn1-
ployed by the railroad involved. For In
stance strike of maohinists at an In
duetrial plant would not affect members
OF the body belonging to the system fed

IF there was a strike at the Baldwin
Locomotive Works would the men on a
railroad using Baldwin engines strike too
rather than repair such engines" asked

The Massachusetts Election.

It is amusing to note the contor-
tions through which a few OF the
ultra-republican papers are now go
ing in order to obtain some comfort
from the results of the Massachus-
etts election. The facts of the
matter are that Massachusetts,
elects a governor every year and its
people have learned to largely dl-
vorce the governorship contests
from national issues. In 1913, Mr..
Bird was candidate on the progress
i've ticket and polled nearly $50, 600
votes. In 1914, Joseph Walker was
candidate and the progressive vote
declined considerably. In the cam
paign just passed. lboth Mr.. Walker
and Mr.. Bird strongly endorsed Mr..
Mccall, the republican candidate,
both of them going on the stump
and making a whirlwind campaign,
which resulted in turning practical
ly all the progressive vote which
these men had in the past lead, into
the republican ranks, reducing the
progressive vote from approximate
" $50, 900 in 1913, to less than 5000
in 1915. In spite of which fact,
Governor Walsh, the democratic
candidate was only defeated by
about 5000 votes, and in fact re-
ceived a larger number of votes
than had ever heretofore been cast
for any other democratic candidate
for governor.

What the Duke Said.

The Duke OF Wellington, of course,
never said up, guards. and at 'emw at
Waterloo, but is it generally known
how near he came to saying it? Sir
Herbert Maxwell In his biography of
the duke points out what is the prob
able origin of the pleasing legend.
Late on the afternoon of that memo
rable 18th Of June the First and Sec
Ond battalions OF the Third chas-
seurs were foremost In the attack on
Mount St Jean. They had reached
crossroad unaware that British
troops We're lying behind the wayside
banks according to orders to remain
prone when under fire, but not actual
ly engaged. Then at the proper mo-
ment Wellington's voice was heard,
'clear above the Storm" Stand up,
guardsr' 1t was Mailland's brigade
Of Ruards that thus stood up and
with a victorious rush swept the chas-.
seurs out OF the combat.-London
