 tri-partite control composed of the public, the operating management and the employees is demanded in stead.
 Addressed to the American public and signed by the engineers, the fire men, the conductors and the Ameri- can Federation of Labor, a formal proposal, which will be carried before Congress Wednesday,
 Tt marks" says the statement, ''the step by which organized labor passes from demands for wage in creases to demands that the system of profits in industry be overhauled."
 Is a Serious Proposition.
 This sentence sums up in a few words, the propasal of which there have been hintss and indications, but which is now laid before the country for the first time. Everywhere in of ficial Washington it is recognized as the most serious and far-reaching pro, position the country will be called on to face.
 Characterizing the proposal as Ia bor's bill" it is put forth as a rem edy for the high cost of living, be- cause the railroads are the key in dustry of the nation. It demands the genuine cooperation and partner ship based on real community of in- terest and participation of control" ," of which President Wilson spoke to Congress, and which the statement says has been ignored by labor and the private owners of the railroads.
 We ask it says, "that the rail- roads of the United States be vested n the public; that those actually engaged in conducting that industry not from Wall street, but from the railroad offices and yards and out on the railroad lines, shall take charge of this service for the public
 Labor Demands. Briefly labor demands: That private capital be eliminated from the railroads.
 That the private owners receive for them government bonds, with a fix ed interest return for every honest | dollar that they have invested" That the tri-partite control, here before referred to, be established in corporations which shall lease the roads and in which the public, the operating homogeneous and labor shall be represented equally. That the public, the operators and the wage earners share equally all revenue in excess of the guarantee to private capital by granting to the operators and the employees one-half the savings which are expected to be made by such a perfected Organiza- tion, and to the public the other half as consumers, either by increasing service without adding costs or by reducing costs.
 This role originates with labor,' says the statement, because labor happens to have firm organizations | through which it may become articu- late.
 The trainmen are not represented in the statement, because w. G. Lee, president of the brotherhood, was out of the city but it was said that they would join it.

What Is the Cause of
Backache?
Backache
BY DOCTOR CORNELL

Backache is perhaps the most com.
mon ailment from which women sui.
fer. Rarely do you find anybody free
from it. Sometimes the cause Is OBJ.
scure, but DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y,
a high medical authority, says the
cause is very often form of catarrh
that settles in the delicate membranes
of the feminine organs. When these
organs are inflamed, the first symp-
tom is backache, accompanied by bear.
ing down sensations, weakness, IN.
healthy discharges, irregularity, pain
full periods, irritation, headache and
q general rundown condition. Any
woman in this condition is to be pitt
led, but pity does not cure. The
trouble calls for DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, which is a separate and
distinct medicine for women.
1t is made of roots and herbs put up
without alcohol or opiate of any kind, for
DR.. Pierce uses nothing else in his pre-
scription. Favorite Prescription is a nat
ural remedy for women, for the vegeta ble
growths of which it is made seem to have
been intended by Nature for that very
purpose. Thousands of girls and women,
young and old, have taken it, and thousands
have written grateful letters to DR.. Pierce
saying it made them well. In taking
Favorite Prescription, it is reassuring to
know that it goes straight to the cause Of
the trouble. There is but one way to
overcome sickness, and that is to overcome
the cause. That is precisely what Favor.
tie Prescription is intended to do.
Send 10c for trial pkg. Of Tablets.
Address Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y.
Constipated women, as well as men, are
advised by DR.. Pierce to take his Pleasant
Pellets. They are Just splendid for cos
tiveness.

Automatic Iiuhtship.

The efficient lighting of the water
ways SO that they can be safely navi-
gated at night is an all-fmportant mat
ter. 1t is effected by the ordinary sta
tionary lighthouse on shore, and also
by manned lightshfps and various
kinds of automatic light buoys. The
latest Of these latter is an ingenious
automatic lightship, requiring no at
tention whatever when once set In mo-
ton, built by British firm.
1t is a very ingeniously constructed
vessel and the very latest of its kind.
In its two steel tanks sufficient gas
can be stored to supply the vessel
for several months. Experiments have
shown that the light may be depended
upon to burn continuously for months
at time without any attention what
ever. The approximate duration of
the light can always be predetermined,
and there Is no danger whatever of
the light being extinguished either by
wind or spray. The light is visible at
distance of eight to twelve miles.
