It is calculated that il a
general tie-up and paralysis of
all freight traffic should result
from the demand of the freight
trainmen for an increase of 25
per cent in their wages, a large
number of the poorer people of
New York City would face star
walton within three days: in
other words, these people have
available supplies of food for
not more than two days ahead.
Other large cities would face
like conditions. Milk supplies
would be cut off, and babies de-
pendent on the daily. milk jar
for sustenance would be left
to perish. The distress would
reach all classes everywhere.

DEATH CLAIMS OLD RESIDENT
Mrs. Elizabeth Janecke Succumbs to
Heart Ailment Wednesday Night
After Brief Illness.

Mrs. Elizabeth Janecke, relict Of the
late Frederick Janecke, died Wednes-
day night at $50 o'clock at her home
on Second street. The tidings of her
demise will come as surprise and
shock to the greater part of her hosts
of friends and acquaintance as her
illness was of only few days dura-
ton. Last Saturday she complained
slightly of heart trouble, but gave lit.
tie thought to the affliction. Sunday
she took change for the worse and
physicians were summoned. Monday
and Tuesday she fought valiantly
against many sinking spells, display
ing remarkable reserve power and
giving the members of her family
hopes of ultimate recovery. Wednes-
day afternoon, however, she began to
decline and, evidently realizing the
end was near, summoned her family
and close friends and babe them good
bye, after which she sank gradually
to the end. Funeral services will be
held Friday Afternoon at 2 o'clock at
the German Lutheran church. Inter-
ment will be in Oakland cemetery.
Deceased was born at Jefferson
City, Mo-, on June Is, 1851, and lived
there until her marriage on Sept. 20,
1870. Thirty years ago the family
came to Sank Centre and at first 10
Gated on a farm in Raymond town. A
few years later they moved into the
city, Mr.. Janecke becoming identified
with various business interests until
his death three years ago. Mrs. JAN
ecke was always active in the work
of the German Lutheran church and
of the Ladies Society of that institu-
ton. She is survived by seven child
rem: Mrs. Reuben Rice, Otto H. jan
ecke, Mrs. Joseph w. Kusba, Mrs.
Clifford Hines and Mrs. William Brun-
skill, all residing in Sank Centre; Geo
Janecke of Lisbon, N. D., and Joseph
Janecke of Los Angeles. All the
children were at the bedside when the
end came except the latter two.

EIGHT QUESTIONS
ON PINK BALLOT
PROPOSED CHANGES IN CONSTI-
TUITION REQUIRE MAJORITY
VOTE NOVEMBER z.
FOUR RELATE TO PUBLIC Land
TWO AFFECT COURTS, OTHERS
J AFFECT VETO POWER AND
DIRECT LEGISLATION

Eight propositions to change the
constitution of Minnesota will be on
the "pink ballot" every male voter
will receive Nov. Z. The form of bal
lot was announced recently by Jul
JUS A. Schmahl, secretary of state.
1 the eight proposed amendments
were adopted by the 1915 legislature
and submitted to the popular vote. AS
a rule only one or two amendments
carry because of the requirement that
each amendment get a majority of all
votes cast at the election, which means
that failure to vote on an amendment
is a vote against it.
The amendments this year will ap-
pear in the following order:
Amendment to the state land
section, authorizing $25O,00O of the
permanent school fund to be set aside
as revolving fund to make improve
ments on state land, the cost of i'm
provements to be added to the sale
price of the land and returned to the
fund when it is paid in.
2-Permitting loans from the state
school fund on farm lands up to 80
per cent of the lands value. This
amendment also extends the maxi
mum term for bonds of municipalities
purchased for the state trust funds,
from 20 to 80 years.
3-Authorizing the state to dispose
of minerals under lakebeds which the
state controls in it's Sovereign ca
pacity," and turning the proceeds into
a permanent good roads fund.
Adding two associate justices to
the state supreme court and empow-
ering the court to appoint its clerk,
now elected by popular vote. = ).
5-Authorizing the governor to out
down items of appropriation bills lin
the exercise of his veto power.
6-Permitting condemnation of; pri-
vate property for drainage operations.
THE initiative and referendum
amendment, submitted to the voters
for the third time. IL. -, .1s.2r -.
8-Extending terms Of sr probate
judges from two to four years.
The initiative and referendum prop
osition differs slightly from former
ones. If it should be, adopted 2 per
cent Of. the voters, by petition, could
bring measure before the legisla-
ture. If the legislature rejected the
bill, or passed it in amended form, an
other petition signed by s per cent OF
the voters would bring it up at the
next general election for popular vote.
It would become a law upon getting
a majority vote, provided the affirma-
tive vote was one-third of the total
vote cast at the election.
The referendum feature is also new.
If a petition signed by six per cent of
the voters Is filed, bill passed by the
legislature must be submitted to the
voters at the next election, and if the
petition contains Is per cent OF the
voters names it will suspend the law
until the vote is taken. A majority
in the negative, provided the negative
vote is equal to one-third of the total
vote cast, will kill the bill. But the
section does not allow referendum
on tax levy or appropriation bills, or
on bills declared to be emergency
measures" by two-thirds vote of the
legislature.

NEW PASTOR COMING SHORTLY
Rev. c. S. Sparkes, Congregational
Minister, Will Arrive With Fam
lily Latter Part of Month.

Rev. G.. S. Sparkes, recently called
to the pastorate of the Sank Centre
Congregational church, has succeed
ed in getting his release from the
Sleepy Eye church, where he will de-
liver his farewell sermon Nov. 10. It
is expected that he will arrive in
Sank Centre with his family in time
to take charge of the local pulpit on
Now 26.
The Sleepy Eye Dispatch of last
week., in speaking of the proposed
departure of Rev. Sparkes, says:
Alta largely attended meeting of
the Congregational church held on
Monday evening last it was reluct-
antly, decided to accept the resig--
nation of Rev. Sparkes. It: long
time before anyone could tbe found
to move that the resignation be ac-
cented, but it was finally moved IN
order to allow business TO proceed
but the subsequent ballot wassalmost
unanimous for not acceptingNit and
it was not until Rev. Sparkes had
appealed to the members to release
him in order that he might be free
to take UP his duties at the place to
which. he had been called that the
motion prevailed. A pulpit commit
tee was then appointed to get in
touch with candidates for the vacant
pulpit as speedily as possible. Al
the close of the meeting the following
resolution was unanimously adopted:
"Whereas Rev. C. S. Sparkes has
been called to larger field OF service
as pastor in another community after
having served this church for the past
five years, the church having pros
pered under his leadership;
"'Be it therefore resolved that it is
with much regret that we are assem-
bled here to act on his resignation
lust rendered. We shall miss his
leadership and his counsel In both
church and Sunday school but we can
only say that our loss is somebody's
gain and it is our wish and prayer
that both Mr. and Mrs. Sparkes may
be of as much service to the COM
munity to which they are going as
thew have been here to u.s."
"Rev. Sparkes and family will move
in few weeks to take up their fresh
work at Sank Centre, Minn."

SCHOOL POPULATION is 4s1, 65s
Survey Shows Increase of 1888 il
Enrolment Over Last Year in
Minnesota.

St. Paul, Oct. 31.-An army of
481, 1858 pupils is enrolled and 1872
teachers are employed in $3.50 schools
in Minnesota, according to a survey
of the state system of public instruc-
ton made public late yesterday by c..
G.. Schulz, superintendent of educa=
ton.
The same department year ago
reported 466,O8O pupils under 17,138
teachers in 9,254 schools.
High schools numbering 230 have a
total enrolment of 47,354 students
and 1,449 faculty members now,
where year ago there were 231 high
schools employing 1896 teachers.
There are PAL graded schools listed,
the same as year ago, but the num-
Der of grade school teachers in high
school districts has increased from
2,47O to 4,673, although the teachers
in graded schools decreased in num-
Der from 1,4O2 to 1879. Pupils en-
rolled in elementary schools now total
434, 1921.
The slight increase in the total
number of schools and also that from
8,O43 to 1880 in the number of school
districts is attributed with satisfac-
ton by Superintendent Schulz to the
marked increase in consolidated
schools.
There are now FOG consolidated
schools in the state, an increase OF
GO over last year. The consolidated
school plan had its inception in MIN
nesota only five years ago. For it Is
claimed the advantages of offering the
rural pupil good elementary training
4 industrial courses and high schoo
work without requiring him to leave
home over night.
From two to six districts usual,
unite to form consolidated school.

,K1MBALL, POsTOFFICE ROBBED
Cracksmen Blow Open Safe But Get,
z; Small BOOty--Escape Without
Detection.

Kimball, Mimi, Oct. 31.-After
blowing the door of the safe comr
pletely off and rifling it of its con-
tents robbers got out of the postof-
flee here last night without being sh-
served by single resident of the
town. 4e.rS
A heavy charge of nitro was used
to blow the safe,a big Hall affair,
and it was so forcible that a type
writer in the office was completely
wrecked and other fixtures were dam
aged by the force of the explosion
Stamps worth between $25 and $50
and about SIS or Sc in small change
were taken by the robbers. It was
stated by several residents this mora
ing that they had heard the explosion
but it is presumed that this is I not
to be relied upon owing to the fact
that the time varies in each indi-
vidual case.
81 think the robbers must have
come in an automobile because no
strangers were seen around here yes
terday and there were none waiting
for the early morning train today"
said the postmaster in discussing the
affair.
1t was stated by the postmaster
that one registered letter had come
late yesterday and that he had taken
the trouble to bring it home with hira.
"I seldom leave anything of value
in the SAFE" he said, "and they got
only a small amount of money and

GIRL PUTS AN END TO MYSTERY
BY RETURNING HOME

BY RE IURNlNG HUME
The disappearance of Amelia
Westphalen, 19-year-old stenogra-
pher for Rothschild & Co., had just
assumed the aspect of a mystery
yesterday when Emma returned to
her home at 1908 N. Monticello av.,
with story that she had taken the
wrong car on the way home and was
lost.
When the girl did not get in for
supper Monday night, her father,
SOphus Westphalen, called the de-
tective bureau and asked the police
to get busy on the case. He feared
that she had been ensnared or kid
mapped,
But early Tuesday morning Emma
called her home, explaining she had
taken a Douglas Park elevated train
instead Of the Humboldt. When she
got to the end of the line she got of
and then took another wrong car
going south instead of north. Her
pTedicament was made worse when
she ran out Of money.
