THE STRIKE is AGAINST US

The railroad strike situation changes much from
day day that the situation it exists
day may be of date by the time the paper published
The contest between the railroad and the railroad off,
cals is primarily of wages. There is much talk about
eght hour day. and mileage but it what these things
mean in wages that really the disagreement Now
the railroads are going grant higher wages unless
they permission raise railroad rates. in other
words the railroads much concerned that their

is willing concede that the capital invested in railroads

the railroads should fair but it is unwilling
that the railroads and their should settle their
differences by extortng from the public than they

Under the limitations present imposed the

Things to Forget

If you see tall fellow ahead of crowd
A leader of men marching fearless and proud,
And you know of tale whose telling aloud
Would cause his proud head to in anguish be bowed
It's pretty good plan to forget it.
If you know of skeleton hidden away
In a closet, and guarded and kept from: the day
In the dark and whose showing, whose sudden dis
play,
Would grief and sorrow, and lifelong dismay.
It's pretty good plan to forget il.
If you know of thing that will darkcn the joy
Of man, or woman, girl boy,
That will wipe out smile or the least way annoy
A fellow, or any gladness to cloy,
