commodity, the farmer would be pay
ing $11.45 a day for harvest hands
this year without any more grumbling
than when he previously paid $3.50
To-day, we find that the farmers
are adverse to paying even S. during
the harvest. In other words, the
farmer wants $G.45 more profit out Of
his worker than when grain was
worth 80 cents a bushel. ",i.llt

There is no doubt about the abil-

DROWNED IN CHARLTON
Pipe Line Man Found Sunday
Only Clue Collar Mark
POtters Field

Rudolph Kaiser of Dalton was
,strolling along the Charlton river
near the farm of Henry Schultz
about six miles south of this
city Sunday morning vhen he
saw a body lying in the mud at
the waters edge. Investigation
disclosed a dead man and con-
consulting with neighbors, Hen
ry notified Herring and Son, un-
,dertakers of this city who attend
to the burial of unidentified
dead, and by them the coroner
was notified. Coroner Hawkins
was professionally engaged south
of the Missouri river, and gave
his attention to the case Monday
as soon as he could reach home.
He found the drowned man to
be N. George, a pipe line hand
engaged with the men south OF
the city laying pipe, tho the only
clue to his name at the time of
the inquest was a name on the
collar band of his shirt. The
victim had on only his shirt,
collar and tie, the remainder of
his clothing being down the river
several yards. These circum.
stances permitted the conclusion
that the man had undertaken to
wade the river at the point
where his body was found, and
the bank being muddy and Slip
perry, he went in and was unable
to reach the shore. 1t is sup
posed that he undertook to carr ,
his clothes and losing them when
trouble came, they floated to
where they were found. The
man evidently had been in the
water about TWO days, the river
falling disclosing his condition.
He weighed about 140 pounds,
was 5. ft 10 in. high. gray eyes.
smooth shaved and fair complex
ion and about % years old. There
was a tattoo mark on his left
arm of a nude woman which
furnished no special identifica-
tion, the name on'the collar band
being the only evidence on the
unfortunate.
His remains were taken to
Dalton where the coroner inves-
tigated and Herring & Son took
charge of the corpse and buried
it in Potters Field at the County
1nfirmary.
