CHOOSING OF ELECTION DAY
Why First Tuesday After First Mon
day in November Was Chosen
Election Day.

Numerous times the question has
been asked why was the first Tues
day after the irst Monday IN Novem-
ber chosen by congress as nation Il
election day?"
The designation of the first Tues
Gay after the first Monday of Novem-
Der as the day for the election of
electors to choose the president OF
the United States was made by con-
gress, January %. 1S45.
The reason that the first Tuesday
after the first Monday was chosen
instead Of simply the first Tues
day" was that it was judged advis-
able not to hold the general election
en- the first day Of the month. The
first of the month, being the day
when man settles his affairs for the
month, and being more or less set
aside for business matters, naturally
did not offer itself as good day for
a presidential election, and it was
therefore judged wisest to avoid the
possibility of election day falling on
November /.

SNOW AND COLD.
Ten Degrees Below Zero in DecOrah
Yesterday Morning.

Decorah has been in the grip Of Sc
we're winter weather for several days.
Saturday morning it started snow
ing and by Monday about four inches
Of snow covered the ground. Tues
day night the temperature dropped
down to ten degrees below zero. The
previous nice weather fooled many of
our residents, and storm doors and
windows were missing when the mer-
curry dropped. The weather is still
cold and the sleighing is not half bad,
many sleighs being in evidence on the
streets.
The cold snap seems to be general
all over the country.
The coal situation in Decorah has
been looking rather serious, some
dealers being unable to supply all
their customers. While they have been
dividing it up and passing it around
to the best OF their ability with what
they have on hand, they are not GER
tain whether or not they will run ont
completely. The coal situation is evil
Gently more serious than most people
think it is.

OPERA STAR COUSIN
OF DEBORAH LADY
Miss Jeanette NJ. Wells, Leading
Soprano in bohemian Girl"
Cousin of Mrs. DIR. A. O.
Woodward.
COMPANY WILL APPEAR
HERE NOV. 25.
Miss Wells is FavOrably Known in
the Musical World. Scored
Splendid Success in 1.-THE
Flying Dutchman."

Miss Jeanette Wells, who takes
the part of Arlene, the Bohemian
Girl' in the opera of that name
which will appear in Decorah on Sat
urday night, Nov. 25, is cousin of
Mrs. DR.. A. c. Woodward, of Decor
all, and is quite we'll known here.
Miss Wells is a resident of Trenton,
New Jersey, and we take the follow
ing from paper of that city:
Miss Jeanette Millen Wells,
daughter of DR.. and Mrs. Joseph N.
Wells, last evening made her initial
as leading soprano of the
Aborn Opera Company in the prodlc-
ton of the Bohemian Girl" The
opera was given in Elizabeth and was
witnessed by many of Miss Wells
friends. Her mother was in atten-
dance and party of her friends and
admirers from New York City wera
also present and congratulated the
young woman most highly at the con-
clusion of the evening. Miss Wells
takes the part of the Bohemian Girl.
The Aborn Company, old and we'll
known and occupying an enviable po-
sition in its special world, has a goo
reputation in this, as we'll as practi-
|cally all of the foremost cities. it
will officially open its season tomor-
row evening in Toronto. 1t is Gus
tomary for the company to tour Can
ada one season and the Middle States
lanother.
Miss Wells is quite favorably
known in the musical world. She is
possessed of an nenviable soprano
voice. Upon one occasion she scored
la splendid success in "The Flying
Dutchman, given at the Trent. She
has delighted large audiences in
many of the larger cities.
Announcement that Miss Wells had
been selected by this famous opera
company for the season and for the
leading part was received with pleas
ure by her many Trenton friends.
Just how it came about that Miss
Wells was selected for the important
part the family refused to make
known. The many friends OF
the young woman are confident
that she will be most successful in
her undertaking, however.
Announcement was made some
time ago of the engagement Of Miss
Wells and Abram Linwood Urban, Of
Lansdale, Pa.

Political Advertising

Iowa Farmer:-The Iowa Farmer
has accepted considerable advertis-
ing this fall from political parties.
There was a time when such a pro-
Icedure was looked upon with disfay-
or. A publisher who would sell his
space for political purposes was re
garded as decidedly mercenary, but
that has all changed. Political ad-
vertising is as legitimate as any 9TH
er form of publicity and all of the
great publications of the country sell
their space to a politician as quick
ly as they would to swine breeder.
Because a publication accepts pol
itical advertising it is no indication
Of the Endorsement of tho candidates
in whose interest the advertising is
placed. The Iowa Farmer has been
favored with advertising from both
the Republican and Democratic par
ties. 1t is an indication that the
publication is a good advertising me-
dium.

DANGER OF RAILROAD STRIKE
YET.
Adamson Law Did Not Avert Danger
of Nationwide Railroad Strike,
Both Railroad and Brother
hood Men Say.

New York, Nov. 13.-Danger OF
nationwide railroad strike, which
was believed to have been averted by
the passage of the Adamson 8hour
law, has not entirely disappeared, 1T
developed here Monday, when repre-
sentatives of the railroads and the
four brotherhoods, comprising 400,-
600 employees failed to reach an
agreement as to the proper applica-
tion Of the new law.
The stumbling block, both sides
admitted, was the existing mileage
system Of compensation.
The announcement of the latest
deadlock between the railroads and
their employees came to the conclusion
of an all-day conference between the
national conference committee of the
railways and the brotherhoods chiefs,
which had been arranged in Septem-
ber.
I'VE met" said Elisha Lee, chair
man af the railroad managers, "to
exchange ideas on the application and
operation Of the Adamson law. We
failed to reach an agreement and We
are not certain that another meeting
will take place"
William G. Lee. president Of the
brotherhood Of Railway Trainmen
spoke for the employees, declared that
in the event of evasion by the rail-
roads of the Adamson law, summary
action would be taken by the broth
erhoods. He said that the strike or
der, which was directly responsible
for the law, still was in effect and the
brotherhoods would not hesitate to
enforce it if the occasion warranted
lit.
THE brotherhoods asked for this
conference" said Mr.. Lee. "At the
morning session we discussed the ap-
| plication of the law and found that
there was no basis upon which we
| could possibly agree. Another set
L
back, besides the elimination of the
mileage system, was the determine
tion of the railroads to continue their
suits to determine the constitution
ality of the law
The mileage system of compensa
| ton, the basis of which is the num-
Der of miles traversed by train
crew and not the actual hour of work,
is the crux of the new problem that
railroad authority said, may re-
suit in the development of situa'
ton similar to the one which Brought
into being the Adamson law.
Frankly" said Chairman Lee,
of the conference committee, in dis
cussing this phase of the situation,
the trouble lies in the fact that
neither the railroads nor the mel
know definitely bow the law should
be applied.
I'VE have our own ideas as to how
the law shall be applied-if at all, as
suits to test its validity are now pend
ing; while the brotherhoods have
their own ideas
