THIS is A STORY
And II Is Printed Just as the North.
west Missourian Of Whites
willie Tells II.

1T is well known Woodrow Wilson
has a clean-shaven face, but it was
not always thus, Once when Doctor
Wilson was a young lawyer. pleading a
cause, in a North Carolina court, he
perceived that his most attentive lisr
tener was the sheriff OF the county,
who sat with his feet on the stove,
and with his eyes on the attorney.
The young advocate was greatly en-
couraged by the interest manifested
by so distinguished an officer, and was
encouraged TO increase his efforts stil
further to enchaih the attention of that
auditor. r-:. srt. t' .
When he had finished his address
with a rounded period of glowing elo-
quence, he stepped toward the sheriff
to receive his encomiums. II was a
dreadful shock 10 him when that Off.
cial drawled out; Say, Wilson, do you
know that one of your side whiskers
is shorter than the other?" The fu.
ture president of Princeton was so
disgusted that he shaved off his beard.

FROM THE PRESIDENT
OF A RAILROAD
Head Of the Erie Railroad Says That
the Eight Hour Law Should
Come.

Milwaukee. Sept. l9.-"The railroad
chiefs OF the country We're not opposed
TO the eight-hour day, contrary to the
opinion that has prevailed throughout
the country" sid President F. D. Tn
derwood of the Erie railroad, at Mil
waukee for the state fair, in an in
terview in the Milwaukee Journal
There is a general feeling that the
eight.hour day is coming and no
doubt it will come and it ought 10
come.
The eight-hour day law will cost
the Erie railroad $3,OOO000 a year. l
do not believe any additional legisla-
tion is needed by congress on this
question.
The interstate commerce commits
sion can take care of the raise in
rates if any should be needed. Con-
gress has set up the interstate COM
merce commission TO take care of
railroad matters. If the commission
could take care of both wages and
rates, there would be no objection, be
cause the commission is unquestion-
ably honest and capable.
"Mr. Wilson, however, is not play
ing politics. He was doing what he
honestly believed was for the good
of the country" ..
