REQUEST LATE CARS

win draft a resolution calling upon
the Virginia Railway and Power COM
pany to put an owl car on that line. II
is also said by some Of the prominent
citizens OF the suburb that a petition
win shortly be circulated asking that
this he done
II is pointed out that the last car
leaves for the park now at 1920
O'Clock, and many people are forced to
ray taxi bills every week because OF
the fact that there are no late cars
goire out to the suberb,
At the present time late cars are
run or the Barton Heights and Broad

suburb believe that they are also due
an owl car. This matter has been the
subject of considerable discussion in
this section of the city recently.

CONGRESSMAN AFTER
STRIKING POLICEMEN

Washington, Sept 13.--Polfce-
men in the District OF Columbia and
all other employees would be prohib-
tied from striking by bin intro
duced in the house today by Repre-
sentative Blanton, Of Texas.
The policemen>would be permit
ted to organize. but could not affll-
late with any other labor organiza-
ton under the terms of the bill.
The right to strike would be specif-
ically denied and a violation OF this
provision would automatically dis
charge from the service all MEM
bers OF the striking union who left
their posts,
BY inference ar. Blanton stated
his bill would indicate, If passed
by congress, that all strikes of po-
licenen would be made Illegal II
congress had the power to so legis-
late. The Texas member bases his
position on the ground that po-
licemen's union affiliated in the
usual way with other labor bodies
would endanger the public inter
ests
AS for other employees Of the
government the bill is national in
its scope.

OUR ONE CHANCE

AS has been aptly quoted, There
is time in the affairs Of men, If
taken lat the flood, leads on to for
tune In Lincoln County that time
has arrived. The government has
money to spend on good roads, the
state also has money to spend on good
roads. Shall we take the tide at the
food and get state and government
aid i'm building our roads, or shall we
turn down their offers and continue to
wallow in the mud This matter Is to
be decided next Tuesday, and we are
betting that the voters will vote to
save money, by letting the State and
Federal governments help us build our
roads Remember, We must take it at
the flood, while they have the money
to spend with us, and not wait u-ail
their money is all spent on other road
projects.
