In memory of our dear mother, Gather
inc E. Wilhide.
Have you a mother? Love her we'll
While she is spared on earth;
Wait not till death shall call her home
To know her precious worth.
Oh, watch her, guard her with your love
While with you she is left,
For when she leaves you life will seem
Of every joy bereft.
Oh, soothe her in her hour of pain;
Be gentle and be mild.
How sweet twill be for you to think
You've been faithful child.
By her two daughters.

The demands in this controversy have not been presented in judgment, for the purpose of fixing definite daily period of labor, reduction in the existing hours of labor change methods of opera tion but for the real purpose of accomplishing an increase in wages of approximately One Hundred Million Dollars annu1n cent tor the men in railroad freight train and yard service represented by the labor organizations in this matter
 After careful examination of the facts and patient and continuous consultation with the Conference Committee of Managers, and among ourselves, we have reached clear understanding of the magnitude of the questions and of the serious consequences to the railroads and to the pubc involved in the decision ef them

 The widespread effect upon the industries of the country a whole is beyond measure appraise- ment at this tne and agree with the nsstent and widespread public the gravity of the situation and the consequences of surrender by the railroads in this emergency.
 In like manner deeply impressed with the sense ot responsibility to maintain and keep open the arteries of transportation, which carry the life blood ot the commerce of the country, and of the consequences that will flow from even temporary interruption of service the railroads. but the issues presented have been raised above and beyond the social and monetary questions involved, and the responsibility for the consequences that may arise will rest upon those that provoke it.

 c) In view of the far-reachng consequences of the declaration made by the President, accepting the hour day. not only upon the railroads and the classes of labor involved directly in this controversy but to the public and upon all industry, it plain that before the existing conditions are changed the whole subject in so far it affects the railroads and their employees should be investigated and determined by Commission to be appointed by the President, of such standing to compel attention and respect to its findings. The judgment of such Commission would be helpful basis for adjustments with labor and such legislation intelligent public opnion so informed might demand.

(a) The railroads will effective September T, 1916, keep the time of all men represented in this movement, upon an hour basis and by separate account monthly with each man, maintain record of the difference between the money actually earned by him on the present basis and the amount that would have been earned upon an hour basis-overtine on each basis to be computed pro rata.
 The amounts so shown will be subject to the decision of the Commission provided for in Paragraph (c) of this memorandum and payable in money, as may be directed by said Commission in its findings and decision.

Public Investigation Urged

The questions involved in our respectful judg- ment, eminenty suitable for the calm investigation and decision by the public through the agency of fair arbitration and cannot be disposed of the public satisfaction, in any other manner
 The decision of Commission Board of Arbi- tration having the public confidence will be accepted by the public, and the social and financial rearrange- ments made necessary thereby will be undertaken by the public, but in no less deliberate nor orderly manner.
 The railroads of the country cannot under present conditions this increase in their expenses. If imposed upon them, it would involve many in early financial embarrassment and bank ruptcy and imperil the power of all to maintain their credit and the integrity of their securities.
 The immediate increase in cost followed by other increases that would be inevitable would substan- tlaly appropriate the present purchasing power of the railroads and disable them from expanding and improving their facilities and equipment, to keep abreast of the demands of the country for efficient transportation service.

HOT WEATHER SUGGESTIONS
TO KEEP PEACE IN FAMILY

TO KEEP PEACE IN FAMILY
On the theory that hot weather
makes everybody suIky," and a wife
might do much to avoid domestic
troubles that brings couples into
court, Asst States Atty Rosina of
the court of domestic relations, who
has spent several months adjusting
domestic difficulties or having hus-
bands come across for the support
of wife and family, offers wives hot
weather suggestions he thinks are
quite as necessary as cold drinks.
Though most of the suggestions
have to do with the conduct of the
wife, Rosinia is a staunch advocate
of women's rights when he gets an
erring husband before him.
Don't nag your husband during
the hot weather" he says, "fOr he
may get up and leave. The heat
makes everyone sulky.
Don't object when hubby wishes
to 90 to the beach. He. will go any
how. Try to accompany him, if
possible.
Don't let the first thing you say
to him at night be that you nearly
suffocated from the heat today. So
did hubby and it starts unpleasant
recOIectiOns.
Don't forget to overlook a good
many of your husbands faults dur
ing hot weather. He has probably
worked hard all day in some factory
and is exhausted and nervous.
Don't annoy hubby if he is sleep
ing out on the back porch. You may
start something that will never end.
Don't argue over trivial matters;
it produces irritation.
Don't be late with meals, and do
have cool and tempting food, for hot
fried stuff in a heat wave aggravates
a mans stomach and adds to his ir-
reliability.

suspicious and result in his meeting
one of his own.
Don't live with your mother-in-
law.
Don't run to the court of do
nestle relations for a warrant for
your husband the first thing Mon
day morning if he leaves you Satur-
day night. He may have gone for a
little cool air and be back on Mon
day night.
Don't be in hurry to get your
husband arrested on the least prov
Ocation. Remember statistics show
that eight out of every ten husbands
arrested on a wife's complaint never
live with their wives again.
Don't bring all your children to
the court of domestic relations. We
know you have them and so does
your husband, and the children suf-
fer from the heat"
And, last of all, ROsinia finishes up
with one that both husband and
wife should frame and hang where
each is most apt to see it:
Don't forget you were married
for better or for worse. So give and
take a little on each side"

SAYS She HAS THE EVIDENCE

Whitewash methods are to be tried
by the state administration in an effort
to cover inefficiency and mistreatment
of inmates in state institutions, ac-
cording to a charge today by DR.. Eva
Harding of Topeka. DR.. Harding has
reiterated and added to her charges
against Miss frankie Wilson, superin-

for girls, and now charges that Gov

tee to establish an alibi for the boys

In statement today, DIR. Harding 6
claimed possession of positive evidence
of use of the straight jacket, at the

also claims reliable information that
inmates of the state institution fo-
girls were compelled to wear the jack

hind them, that shackles were placed
on their feet and the girls were com
PEELED to sleep on the floor. Her sem
sational charge is made against the

her part met with a refusal of the
governor to send g person to Beloit to

was charge of larceny from the per-
son. J. w. Wilson of 120 Monroe

him into the bull pen" at the station
the police searched him for valuables.
Wilson was put into the pen and
soon after Bob Miller, A. c. Bartel and
Spencer Abbott heard a terrific battle
in progress. Investigation developed
that after Wilson was turned in among
the prisoners Ollie Burns had searched
him and found a pocket book con-
