ROADS Want TYPICAL CASE
SAY DECISION AGAlNsT ,ADAMsoN
LAW NOT BROAD ENOUGH.
Desire Better Suit to Go Before ST.
promo Court for Decision a. 70
constitutionaltty.

Washington; Nov. %. - Attorney
General Gregory and lawyers speak,
Ing for most Of the important railroad
systems of the country, were in con.
ference here several hours, but failed
to agree on terms by which one OF
the many railroad suits attacking the
Adamson act might be made a test and
expedited to the supreme court for an
early decision on it's constitutionality
Both the Attorney General and the
railroad counsel declined to name tho
point of disagreement.
Want More Typical Case.
The Department of Justice is said
to have insisted that the case of the
Missouri, Oklahoma & Gulf should be
made the test case. The railroad at,
torneys, however, were inclined tc in.
sist that the Atchison, Topeka & San.
ia Fe case, which is set for hearing
today at Kansas City, would present
the questions in issue more complete
!; ly and with more justice to the car
riers.
Railroad lawyers said that condi
tons on, different roads might be vast
ly different and that while the Adam
son law might not be confscatory as
applied to one road, it might, if applied
to another, where the territory ira,
versed yields dissimilar return,
where the expenses are not the same
and where other important factors are
far from IDENTICAL
The railroad attorneys are represent
ed as DESTROYS that any case going to
the supreme court with their agree
ment that it be test case shall in.
volve some road where conditions are
as nearly typical as possible.

THE WILSON FUND
VIZ VIII Help Finance An Establish.
ed Success?

During the recent campaign compar-
iso1s were made Of the amount of
money being spent by the democratic
and republican campaign committees
+ espectively. It was asserted that the
latter were lar better "heeled' than
the former.
That this statement was true was
shown when, less than week prior to
the election, the chairman of the COM
mittees filed their official sworn state
ments as to election expenditures to
that date. It was found that while
about 100000 Lad been spent to
further the candidacy of President
Wilson, the Hughes committee had
spent little more than $2,000,000.
Now recall these last four or five
days of the campaign, when the
Hughes men bought page after page
of daily and weekly newspapers
throughout the country in order to ad-
vertise their candidate and attack the
president. Many persons commented
ut that time on the fact that the dem
scratic managers were falling behind
in publicity.
There was a reason-and that reason
was lack of FUNDS.
On the democratic side there were
few men able to do great deal in
,dividually, but the managers were con-
fdent and they went ahead on the
basis of confidence that the people
would support tn } president.
Now comes the balancing Of the
books-and it shows that the demo-
cratic campaign managers overshot the
amount Of receipts by some 100000.
This amount must be raised to meet
tho remaining unpaid campaign bills
Of the party that placed President
Wilson 3 name before the people. There
is no hope of help from organized cap
ital to make up this fund. Like the
campaign fund raised before election,
this money must come from the rank
and file, for it was their campaign
and it is their victory.
If you intended to contribute before
but "didn't get around to it," now
is yeur chance to make up for that
failure. Perhaps you were one Of those
who took advantage of the odds Offer
Cd On the republican candidate and
won; and in that case maybe you
would feel like contributing a per-

10 Grammar Essential?

u 0Tantn1r Et30ntlaI?
Sometimes 1t IS urged that formal
grammar teaches children to write and
speak correctly, but as all Americans
have studied formal grammar, includ.
ing newspaper reporters and saleswo-
men, there would appear to be no guar.
antee that formal grammar study leads
to correct habits Of speech. On the
other hand, 1 once knew a school
where for fourteen years not a minute
was spent on formal grammar, and,
like the worm that does not miss a
slice or two, no one ever knew the dif-
ference.-Atlantic Monthly.

new EMPEROR VERY POPULAR
CHARLES FRANCIS COMMANDS
AUSTRIAN ARMIES.
wife 10 Daughter Of tho Late Duke 81
Parma-Distaste for imperial
Red Tape.

Vienna, Nov. 23.-Archduke Charles
Francis Joseph, grandnephew Of Rm-
peror Francis Joseph. to whose throne
he now succeeds, became heir to the
throne Of Austria-Hungary by the a.
sassination of Archduke Francis Fer.
dinand prior to the outbreak of the war.
Charles Francis has been in command
Of the Austrian armies on various
fronts during the last two years.
Archduke Charles Francis Joseph
was born Aug. II. 1887. His wife was
Princess Ztta Of the Bourbon house Of
Parma: 'His father was the Archduke
Otto. who was the younger brother Of
Francis Ferdinand.
Has Two Children.
Princess Zita is one of the 20 chill
dren Of the late Duke Robert and his
drst wife, Marie-Pie des Graces, prin-
cess of Bourbon Siciles. Her step
mother, formerly the 1nfante Maria An
tonia, who was married to the late
Duke Robert, IL the youngest of the
six sisters of Don Miguel, pretender to
the throne of Portugal. Don Miguel's
eldest son, Prince Miguel. duke Of
Vizeu, married Miss Anita Stewart Of
New York.
The Archduke Charles Francis Jo-
seph has one son, the Archduke Fran
els Joseph Otto, born Nov. 20, 1912,
and daughter, born Jan. 3, 1914.
Popular With Austrian People.
The new ruler is extremely popular
with the Austrian people. His wife
was born May 9, 1892. Their distaste
for imperial red tape in family mat
ters was evinced recently when they
were seen driving to the country from
Vienna with go-cart strapped to the
rear Of their automobile. Arrived :. in
the country, the two royal children
were bundled into the go-cart and arch.
duke and archduchess took turns
wheeling them about.
Archduke Charles Francis, before
war, was typical young Austrian Of
fcer, gay and popular. He has aged
much during the two years of the war.
He is devoted to his wife and was q
favorite with the emperor. His pre-.
dominant characteristics are tact and
g., graciousness, which explain his popu.
| larity.'
Very Fond Of Hunting.
The new emperor is an excellent
shot, is fond of hunting, is an enthu-
siastic motorist, patron Of the opera
and the theater, He is good linguist,
speaking German, Hungarian, French,
English, Italian, Czech and Polish.
Although he was trained for the
! throne from the first, Archduke Charles
Francis, up to the time of the assassi.
nation of Archduke Francis Ferdinand,
was kept rather in the background,
being sent to the country garrisons
and not allowed to undertake repre-
sentative duties in Vienna to as great
as extent as the Viennese would have
liked.
