LEARNING THE LESSON.

Eighty per cent of the railroad employees of the United states, un- organized were interested witnesses 10 the force of cohesive effort when they say 20 per cent of their CO., workers force Congress to hurried ly enact an s-hour law. It is said that the lesson was even more deep iy rubbed in because the Presi- dent would not even grant hearing to the pleadings of those who de- sired to speak for the unorganized workers.
 If reports are true, the lesson has had it's effect. The railroad men who have been working more or less as individuals propose to get Together, and thereby place them selves in position to be heard and respected in high places when they have cause to champion.
 It Has become a welI-settled rule that those who do not protect them- selves by cooperating with their fellows must be the goats must accept the scraps that fall from the table of plenty and toll to add to the bounty of those who are thus protected.

NOTHING BUT A WAGE LAW.
President of Trainmen Admit the
 Truth of AdamS0n Bill.

Cleveland. O., Oct. 1.-The Adanson so-ealled S-hour law IS in realitva law increasing the wages 0f1ralRoad employees.
 That was the admission made nn- expectedly today by William c. Lee, president of the Brotherhood or Railroad Trainmen. while under fire of heckling questions from members of the City Club
 . striving to defend President Will son for putting thru the bill as a strike panacea. Lee conceded that the Atkinson Law is a wage-incres- isae legislation, and that it's S-hour aabelS made possible the mislead- |inR of the public as to it's true na- IbHe.
 Xes. the bill will increase the wages of the railroad workers Lee said. Call the bill what you wish.
 Then apparently to qualify this reply to the insistent demand of Alt sorney N, W Emerman that he say whether he considered the law as an increased pay bill or an 'S- hour law measure, he declared that in some instances it Will also make for a shorter work day.
 The heekling of the union leader and his admissions under fire came at the end of an address m willCil he made an appeal for the support of President Wilson upon the lat ter's progressive legislative re- cord"
 Tt was passed hurriedly, I'll ad- init" said Lee. but even if Presi- dent Wilson was wrong in putting 1t thru. he prevented a strike that would nave broken LID thousands of homes"
 Lees admission that the public has not been informed correctly as to the bills true effect came in an- swer to a question by William " Backus, attorney.
 Isn't il true that this act has been promulgated as an S-hour law when in reality it merely increases railroad mems pay and to what ex- tent the public has been misled2' asked Baekus.
 Tt may be that the public is be- ing misled' said Lee, but 1t is al- most impossible to correct any such misConcepti0n.

Statement of Freeman L. Johnson,
 Circuit Clerk.

To the Public:
 In regard to the alleged audit that has just been made in Polk county, l beg to say that the statement made as to shortage of SS9i GO in the clerks office is untrue and mislead- ing. The auditors failed in several items to the amount of Si948O giving me credit with that amount and the sum of Si4i.00 was cost that had ac- eumulated after Circuit court at the April term. which has been collect ed by myself and the sheriff The balance of S55600 is cost due the county. in a sense, and some of same Is collectlble. This amount is made up of cost as follows.
 Bankruptcy cases, pauper cases. bastard cases and some criminal cases, and also justice of the peace cases that are allowed under inc law to be filed with a small fee of oO cents for transcript. this being the law and the clerk is not respon- slble for same.
 The commissioners of Accounts nave Hlaue tlelr report and say that the law should be changed, but the legislature IS the onlv body to rem edy this: and even fifteen-year-old boy ought to know that.
