It must not be overlooked that during this period. when the railroads have per sistHntly denied their employees that which was intended by the President in his proposition, and that which was intended by the congress by the Adamson act. the railroads during a years period showed net earnings of over a thousand million dollars. while the employees, with no increase in wages, have suffered an increase in the cost of living equal to more than forty percent.
 If. after more than a year. we have failed to secure some relief, and train and enginemen conclude to fold their lands and starve in reality rather than by degrees, should they be con sidered as disloyal to their flae?''

 DOUGLAS. Mar. l5.-Sheriif Harry Wheeler left here today for Sodeo, N M.. 10 start an investigation into the killing of John Knapp. whose body was found early this morning at Aca cia siding. about seven miles east oi Douglas. An inquest will be conduct ed here tomorrow afternoon by Coro her D. T. Dunlap.
 Knapp. who had been in the liquor business in Southern Arizona and northern Sonora for the last l5 years, left Douglas Tuesday night for Rodeo He started back for the Shelter City Wednesday night aboard a freight train. Members of the freight's crew saw him get of at Acacia. When a special train bearing officials of the Fl Paso & Southwestern passed the siding this morning. several of the passengers noticed Knapp's body ly- ing along the north side of the track. The train was stopped and the rail way men took the body in charge un- til officers arrvied.
 There was a, deep gash in the body. An autopsy later in the day brought out the fact that the wound, in the breast, had been made by a double edged weapon. evidently about eight inches long. The weapon had passed through Knapns lungs and heart and death had evidently been instantane- ous. Near the body lay Krapp's au- tomatic revolver and a short distance away were found two empty shells from the wearon A pool of blood several yards away led to the belief that Hnapp had wounded one of his assailsnts who had evidently lain on the ground for a while and then had crawled away

FARMERS STICKING TOGETHER
Election of John Baer to Congress n
Victory For Farmers Union.

John NJ. Baer, Non-Partisan League
candidate, has been elected to con-
gress from the First District of North
Dakota by vote almost equal to the
combined vote of his two old party
opponents Baer is the first congress-
man ever elected by organized farmers
on nom partisan basis, and this vic
tory refutes the claim, made last year,
when the farmers carried North Da-
kota, that they would not Stick
The Non-P artisan Leader, official
magazine of the Non-Partisan League,
says: "Great credit is due to organ
lied labor and the workingmen of the
cities of the First district. They stood
nobly by Baer, cooperating with the
farmers, for Baer was the candidate
of the producers and the workers"
The league has established nation
al headquarters in st. Paul and is
rapidly extending its organization, a
number of representatives being ac-
lively at work in Colorado at this time.
The league uses the primary elections
with telling effect selecting favorable
candidates from all parties and then
voting for them at the general election.

The aster Is certainly one Of the
most satisfactory of the annual flower
Ing plants. The great variety in its
size, color, form, and season Of bloom
ing makes it a most satisfactory plant
for supplying cut flowers. In fact,
many Of the improved sorts produce
flowers equal in form and size to some
of the better sorts Of chrysanthemums
The range of color presented in this
group is one of its chief merits.

stems are Of good length. carry the
flowers we'll, and Keep fresh as cut
flowers for long time when placed in
water.
The annual gaillardias are all propa-
gated readily from seeds sown in the
open. but earlier flowers will be Sc
cured by sowing seeds in hotbed
and transplanting the plants to the
open as soon as killing frosts have
passed. In either case the blooming
plants should not stand closer than
10 or II inches. They grow and bloom
best when fully exposed to sun and
air, and when planted on fertile
but light and well-drained soil.

oughly composted manure mixed with
the soil is safe for these plants. Small
quantities of air-slaked lime. or Of
fresh wood ashes, stirred into the sur
face of the aster beds prove beneficial
to the plants. When given plenty Of
water and rich, fms soil asters can be
grown into beautiful pot plants.
In some localities and during some
seasons the aster Is seriously attacked
by the so-called black potato beetle
or blister beetle (epicauta pennsyl-

them to develop, II at all, into de-

charming little plants that bloom very

clear colors and generous bloom make
them welcome anywhere.
The seeds may be sown outdoors In
