 VERNON. Miss. March l4.-Prof. Porter. organizer Of the Vernon Sep arte School. and Miss Clarence Pal. mer. one Of the pupils. were princi- pals in a romance that grew into mar rlge before any of the other pupils got the slightest inkling of it.
 Prof. Porter one morning recently called school as usual. He heard all classes apparently without letting his mind turn toward the event that was but a few hours off. At p. m. Judge Armsted Rodgers slipped into the schoolroom and took O rear seat. The pupils looked around. thought 1t un- common. but concluded that the old Squire was just a casual visitor
 At 4 o'clock the scholars had all books. slates. sponges and rulers put away. ready for the dismissal bell. Prof. Porter ascended the rostrum. said he was going to turn over Q new leaf, and asked Miss Palmer if she were ready. She flushed slightly Squire Rodgers took her arm and to- gether they walked up to the profes- sor on the platform The marriage ceremony was pronounced while the scholars sat silent and dumfounded.
 The Professor kissed his bride. The pupils, recovering from their surprise. lustily gave the three times three, " football yell for the couple. Prof Porter is known as an artist. soldier and educator. The bride is a beauti- full young lady of many accomplish ments.

OHIO MAY HAVE BOOM SENATOR POMRENE FOR
 THE ADVERTISEMENT

COLUMBUS, O., March 21 - The Democrats of Ohio are making great efforts to line up for the 1916 com paign in such a way as to deliver the vote of the State to President Wood row Wilson next November and to recapture the State administration
 The latest plan is to nominate Sena- tor Atlee Pomrene for Vice-President; former Governor Judson Harmon for Senator and to renominate former Governor Jas. M Cox for Governor The conviction prevails that this com bination would make Ohio certain for the Democratic ticket and it is said that the plan meets with the approv. al Of Postmaster-General A. S. Burle- son, who has investigated the Ohio situation in the interest of President Wilson. The only speck the promote CTS of the plan can see on the hori- zon 10 the possibility that Senator Pomrene would prefer reelection to the Senate to the Vice-Presidency.

oral raise ln wages, but nothing could be further from the truth You will note that it is the secretary's wish that you return to work temporarily at the present scale Of wages and un- til the new scale Is put Into effect as a result of the conference about to be held. It would serve no useful purpose to refuse to return to work at this time under those conditions. Secretary Lane has been fair and req sonable and any attempt on your part to avoid meeting him half way would not react to your favor. In fact, any attempt at this iime to call a general strike and cause any cessation Of the present work might have serious com sequences"
 Reference was here made by the commissioner to action taken by the union several days before when a res olution was- adopted declaring for a general strike March if a favorable reply was not received from Wash. ineton before that date. Such a strike would have prevented further trans. portation of supplies from tho end of the track to Moose Creek, headQuar- ters for the summers operations, which work must be finished before trails and roads break up. The Com missioner gave assurance Of cooper atlng with the union committee in recommending an increase of wages. Inviting and answering lSuestions' he said ''We don't run a black list, no discrimination will be shown and we win employ anyone who comes along"
 A later meeting, after general de- bate lasting two hours, and during which an but an insignificant minority displayed an inclination to "play fair resolution was adopted by vote of about 994 to in substance as fol- lows "That the call for a general strike be deferred until after a hear ing before the committee from the Department of Labor; that work be resumed by members of the union on ly on condition that the new wage scale date from time work is resum- ed"
 The commissioners answer to this was a bulletin announcing that work would be resumed this morning on the unions terms. About 200 applied for work and 30 went on the steel gang laying track in the local yards. The force In all departments is to be increased as rapidly as the reorgani- zation can be perfected and weather conditions permit Mir Mears stating that he expected at least 400 would be put on within the next ten days.
 The committee which is to repre- sent the union at the conference is to be composed Of wage earners of different nationalities. trades and oc. equations affected by the walkout, and judged by thes pirit of fairness which has marked the organizations every action the fault will not be theirs if a speedy, permanent and satisfactory settlement is not reached.
 Immediately after the walk-out Su- perintendent of Construction O'Reilly who isn't a French-American dip mat attempted to play some nation. alities against others in order to fill the vacant places; but this plan was not an entire success.

GOOD FEELING

 AT ANCHORAGE
CBy c. H. Packardl

ANCHORAGE. March 22.-(special) -Several long cherished, and in some sections. most devouty worshipped idols smashed; new unique yet sound and practical precedents established; important history made in this great Northland which will have far reaching and beneficial effect; master and man meeting on a common level,
 treating each other like human beings and preparing to settle their differ ences in sane, practical, fair and business-like way. instead of pursu- ing the too common policy of shoot ing each other up, ruthlessly destroy ing life and property and acting gen. erally like blood-crazed troglodytes; Uncle sam condescending to arbitrate with common shovel stifis' the rls- puted question as to what is a fair and living wage in Aiaska-these are a few of the more important incidents which have varied the monotony or winter life here during the month our labor disturbance" has been in pro- gross.
 This town, you may remember, is the most unique of the worlds munich palities-the construction headquart- CTS for the governments only real railroad-the spot where, several de- cades behind his old World neighbors Uncle Sam is trying out on the mala- mute the experiment of government ownership.
 Secretary Of the Interior Franklin l K Lahe's reply to the unions request for increase in wages-which includ- ed the information that a special com mittee was enroute to Anchorage to aid in arranging a settlement and al- SO authorizing Commissioner Freder- ! ick Mears to put the new schedule | into effect--was received Thursday. The commissioner having asked for the privilege of coming before the union and communicating that reply in person, a special meeting was call- ed sor the following afternoon at tho NIW Nailf anu tlAl NAAtNao NoH 8AfDH close and respectful attention by the 800 or more members peraent. Re- ferrlng to the general situation here, Mr. Mears said there is a general disposition to disregard the national significance Of local events like the one which has attracted attention to Anchorage and to forget that-those in local authority aro but servants hired | to carry out the win and instructions of their superior officers.
