WAGES SAFE FOR RAILROAD MEN

Washington, November IA The
Railroad Administration plans no re-
duction in railroad employees wages
under peace conditions, and likewise
no material lowering of freight and
passenger rates, it was stated author
itatively yesterday.
Both are likely to remain at their
present levels, although with many re-
adjustments, during the period of
changing the nation from war to
peace.
Even with recent advances railroad
wages now are not as high as those
paid for similar service in war indus
tries, it was declared, and consequent
ly Railroad Administration officials
feel that there is no war bonus to be
taken off the wages of the rail en-
ployees.
Director General McAdoo has de-
clared that he would lower rates as
soon as it was determined revenues
would be sufficient to pay wage in
creases and the higher cost of mater
ials, supplies and other transportation
elements. 1t was explained yesterday
however, that the time when this
would be possible is not yet in sight

PERFECT WOMANHOOD

Perfect womanhood depends on per-
feet health. Beauty and a good dis
position both vanish before pain and
suffering. A great menace to a wom-
ans happiness in life is the suffering
that comes from some functional de-
rangement which soon develops head
aches, backache, nervousness and "the
blues" For such suffering, women
find help in that famous old root and
herb remedy, Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, which for three
generations has been restoring health
to women of America.

Two grain elevator fires at Weaver,

Two grain elevator fires at Weaver,
Cavalier county, N. D., were today de-
clared by Col. G. s. Whittlesey, OF
Fargo, insurance adjuster, to De the
work of incendiaries, while a fire at
Alsen, 4 town close to Weaver, where
the Bartel hardware store was de-
stroyed, also was started by firebugs.
Numerous fires have occurred re-
Gently, particularly on farms, bellev-
ed to have been the work of incendi-
aries said Col. Whittlesey today.
"The Marshall farm fire near Absar-
aka was clearly the work of firebugs,
as have several other h<es been clear
ly So" In the Weaver fire, the two
grain elevators, containing about 30
600 bushels of grain, were fired stimuli
taneously, between 200 feet apart.
An attempt was made to burn
Great Northern bridge near Pillsbury
Monday afternoon. The section man
happened along just in time to foil
the attempt, as straw and shavings
had been piled up against some of the
bridge timbers. Three men, two
white and one colored, were seen near
the bridge and were followed and an
endeavor made to apprehend them but
they cut across fields and escaped.
The fire which destroyed the bridge
last Thursday was thought to have
been accidental, but with this deliber-
ate attempt at incendiarism in the
same vicinity, it is perhaps likely that
the same fire, too, had been set by the
same men, or by men of the same
gang.
A man, residing near Blaisdell,
whose name we were unable to learn,
was in Berthold today for medical

the carelessness Of an automobile
driver. He was driving home from
town about IL o'clock last night when
an automobile without lights crashed
into his buggy, throwing hi mimic the
ditch. He was rendered unconscious
in which condition he remained until
daybreak. He finally succeeded in
crawling to the fence and by the aid
of post managed to get onto his
feet and after succession of rests
reached nearby house where he was
cared for. The car was abandoned by
the occupants, either because it was
put out of commission by the collis-
ion or because they thought they had
killed a man. They at least failed to
render any assistance to the injured
man.-Berthold Tribune.
