In the army. The veterans have In
mind particularly the action Of In
surance companies In refusing to
insure enlisted men. or In making
the rates almost prohibitive.
Action may also be taken on the
proper size for q standing army and
a reserve. There are many veterans
who think that the standing army
should consist Of at least~ 5000
men. and that the reserve should be
not less than a half million. They
believe that the reserve should have
BIT encampment for instruction at
least once a year.

SLUGGERS TAKEN AWAY FROM BOSSES-ALD.
BUCK INTRODUCES THE RESOLUTION

The city council last night passed
an order requesting the mayor and
the chief of police to show no par
TALLY hereafter in allowing citizens
to enter the galleries of the council.
The resolution was introduced by Aid.
Kennedy, who described the pack
ing" of the council chamber two
weeks ago as disgraceful. A demon
stration from galleries greeted this
order, and when it had been passed
Aid. Captain arose to move that the
mayor clear the galleries if they failed
to behave after warning.
81 think the council is losing it's
prestige when it allows crowd to be
disorderly," he said. Kisses greeted
this speech.
Aid. Merriam said: 1--WE are the
servants, not the masters of the cit
liens of Chicago. think that more
people should come here than do. /
do not think that the aldermen should
object to little applause or Kisses
once in while. know l don't" APP
plause greeted Merriam's speech and
Aid. Rodriguez called the attention of
the council to the fact that the mayor
was not enforcing the order.
The mayor laughed and showed no
intention of doing so. at seems that
this law is not only applicable to the
galleries. said Rodriguez. "Why not
be fair. Let's play it 50-50." Aid.
Captain informed Aid. Rodriguez
that he had little dignity.
Aid. Buck next introduced a reso-
luton taking away from the garment
manufacturers sluggers their special
police permits and calling for an in
vestigation by the police department
into the character of the men en-
ployed in that capacity and their
criminal records, if any. 1t also calls
for the names of the detective agen-
cies who are supplying these men.
Aid. De Priest and Lawley, who
both accompanied the mayor on his
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1915-10-20

Priest then demanded the order be
deferred and published This was a
right which could not be denied. In
the meantime Aid. Lynch, chairman
of the police committee, introduced
the same order as special matter of
business and moved to have the rules
suspended.
Several aldermen spoke for the
resolution. ... .......
I'VE should pass it to sustain our
dignity, which has been insulted by
the attitude taken by the garment
employers" Buck said after hear
ing testimony on the brutality of the
sluggers we invited the employers to
tell us how they were policing the
strike. They refused"
'"The chief and first deputy were
not treated fairly by this committee"
Aid. Stern said in pleading ''for the
millions these manufacturers have
invested here" "This is discrima-
tory class legislation and unfair" He
voted with DePriest and Lawely.
Aid Utpatel, for the first time, told
of what happened behind the closed
doors of Commissioner of Public
Works Warehouses; Office Friday
night when the arbitration committee
met the manufacturers.
''They said everything was lovely
and when we tried to find out some
thing about their side OF the strike
we could not get an intelligent an
swer. We asked them if they were
so pleased with the condition of
affairs why they needed one-fourth
of the police force? Their attitude is
the starve-out attitude which hardly
can be called up-to-date.
Let them give their side of the
story in these open hearings, if they
dare. say, if they fail to appear
we'll issue an ex-parte report which
will be so sizzling hot that it will
burn holes in their asbestos con-
sciences"

1T is of great benefit to the pro-
Queer to know today just what he can
sell his grain for now and just what
it is now worth for future delivery.
= ** The farmer knows now (Janu.

know the price he can get at harvest
time-'an invaluable device for mis-
own insurance and protection"
The frequent and rapid %luctuation
in the price of wheat as shown in pre-
vious article is a sufficient refutation
of the foregoing claims.
True we have quotations for May,
July, and September wheat in Mime
apolis, and for May and July in Chi
cago, but the futu res change daily
with the change in cash wheat, or
other conditions. 1t is claimed that:
Every dealer is or should be a stu
dent of conditions. The average net
judgment of all, 1t will be found, will
follow pretty closely the actual price
in the future"
If the students" are experts, then
the price should be uniform in all our
markets, less cost of transportation,
etc.
Now there cannot be a buyer with
out a seller. The buyer thinks the
price will advance; the seller thinks
that it will go lower; SO one half of
those expert students guess wrong all
the time.

CREDIT WHERE 1T BELONGS
Editor Register:

Editor Register:
A recent Register contained a fine
write up of the State College and of
what it was doing for the young peo-
pie. 1t certainly Is a grand institution
and we often point out with pride the
graduates who are filling positions in
the eastern states, giving satisfaction
which a not be excelled by any edu-
cational institution in the east, and
what 1t is doing for the farmers in all
parts of the state cannot be valued In
dollars and cents. No part of the coun-
try Is better advertised than the coun-
try tributary to Brookings. Go into
other states and mention Brookings
county and the, first thing you hear is,
"You have the State College, there
at Bookings" Who shall we give
credit for having this great institution
on the hill? We answer the Hon. G. A.
Mathews, of our city.
The post office building was nicely
written up in the Register. 1t certain
ly is the pride of every citizen of
Bookings, 1t is a magnificent build
ing, and we have been told by men
who pretend to know that there is not
over four post office buildings in the
United States today that will excel
the one in Bookings. for beauty, size
and convenience, in a city the size of
Bookings. Who do we give credit for
this? The Hon.. Philo Hall, of this
city. Give these gentlemen bouquets
while they are living, don't wait until
they pass to the great beyond, for it
will do them no good then.
