Alas, for the Taste of A
Vanished Drink, the Smell
of A Cork That's Dry!"

The following poem" dedicated to
Sheriff Clem Carr, Buck" Wenger,
Ed McNally and Linus Meredith was
received by Ed McNally, chief of de-
tectives, Saturday:
A ROCKIES LAMENT
From Indiana Harbor, Indiana
You fellows that sleep in your
feathers at night,
And eat at your homes every day
Who come when you please and 60
where you will,
And always have money to pay.
Can easily see how this suffering
bunch
With liberty put on the blink,
Would barter an eye, or a tooth, or
a leg,
For the boom of an old fashioned
drink.
It's awful to be under orders all day
And tied to post through the night
It's awful to eat a mess" that Is
bum
When at home you would be if you
might,
But it's plea SAINT to dream in a lazy
old way.
It's pleasant to just lie ard think
OF how it would feel if a fellow just
The smell of an old-fashiored drink

What affect the appeal would have
the local men would not say.

NATION rETURNS
TO NORMAL Time
SUNDAY MORNING
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Oct 25-With the
turning back of the clocks OF the
land. one hour, at two o'clock tomor-
row morning the American people
again will live by normal time.
For two years the clocks were
moved forward one hour in the
spring and moved back one hour in
the fall but from now on the time
pieces will remain on the old time
ba sis as the daylight saving 'aw was
repealed by the present congress after
a bitter fight in which President Will
son took hand.
The law was designed primarily as
a war measure to increase food and
war material production by offering
an additional hour of daylight for
workmen. The first complaint over
the new time came from the farmers
who declared the law was working
hardships upon them by causing ex-
treme early rising.
Representa- tiyes of the farmers
opened the fight against the measure
and although President Wilson vetoed
the repeal of the law sufficient ma
jorities in the house and senate were
secured to sustain the repeal and the
daylight saving law was repealed.
Railroad officers and employees have
been instructed to turn their wa tches
back one hour ut ? o'clock Sunday
morning. Trains caught in terminals
will be required to remain there un-
till the scheduled time of departure
under the new rule.

IS RECOMMENDATION
BY PUBLIC BODY
(Bv Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Oct 25.-Out Of the
wreck of the national industrial con-
ference there would arise small COM
mtttee representative of all interests
and entrusted with the task of bring
ing about a new relationship between
capital and labor, should President
Wilson adopt the re concentrations of
the public group IL the recent gath
ering.
After voting to declare the indus
trial conference adjourned slime die
the public group, the last remaining
unit of the conference, last night
through its chairman, Bernard NJ. Ba
ruch, laid before President Wilson
report asserting that despite its
abrupt termination the conference was
not without beneficial results, anc
predicting that the spirit manifested
during the 13 days of it ssessior
augured well.
In a letter trans mitting the repor
! to the president, Chairman Baruch as
serted that in his opinion as resul
of the conference, there will be man
ifested an increasing effort on th'
| part of the employers to see that no
alone proper wages are paid but tha
the human rights of the workers arr
considered.
The public group, in its report, EN-
phasizes that the right of collective
bargaining-the rock on which th'
conference was wrecked-was neithe
rejected by the conference nor oppos
ed by any single group.
The difficulty over the issue, tn
report points out, arose alone owe
| the method of making collective bal
gaining effective. This difficulty eve
could have been overcome, the grou
believes, had the problem been al
preached in a different way.
With a view of treating the questio
of collective bargaining as part

developed program the group puts fol
ward the proposal for the creation G
