A combined meeting of the Madison
Board of Trade and citizens was held
Wednesday evening in Firemen's hall
with % present. The first matter to
come up was short discussion of pro-
viding much-needed housing facilities in
Madison. 1t was voted to instruct the
secretary to correspond with the build
ing association in Maiden, Mass, and
WaterviIle, and report at a future meet
ing. The next matter to come up was
a proposition for the business men to
combine with the labor unions in get
ting up Fourth of July celebration. A
committee consisting Of F. c. Clark,
Charles Davis and Z. L. High was ap-
pointed to canvass the business men
and ascertain what their sentiment was
in regard to the proposition and what
form the celebration should take in the
forenoon. The last matter to come up
was an informal discussion Of the day
light saving proposition. While the
sentiment of those present was strong
ly divided, the majority were in favor
of adopting the plan and voted to re-
quest the selectmen to advise its adop-
ton. Two Of the Madison mills are
running on the plan at present At an
other mill there will probably be a
change by going to work an hour
earlier without changing the clocks.
The school committee at present is not
certain whether or not the change will
be made in the schools in the village
but the rural schools will continue on
standard time.

Labor protests against rampant
tragedy" declares Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, in the June number Of the
Federationist, in a stirring article in
which he strongly indicts the present
congress as one that has shown gross
incompetence, has been negligent in its
duty and thoughtless of the welfare
of the people.
Regardless Of whatever artificial
issues politicians may seek to inject
into the present political campaign,
one Of the great issues about which
the masses of the people are thinking
most seriously is the cost of living,
says Mr.. Gompers. The cost Of living
has become a serious question because
it is out of proportion to income. 1t
constitutes therefore a reduction Of
income for the average American
family which will not submit to a re
auction Of income and consequent
lowering Of the standard Of living
without protest The greater the
margin between income and cost oi
living, the more energetic win be the
protest.

PRISON DOORS
Are Not Unlocked By Heat

Labor Leader

Ottawa, Ontario Heated accusa-
tions and blatant threats are not
helpful in iberating several workers
who are serving prison sentences in
connection with the recent Winnipeg
general strike, says President Tom
Moore and associate officers of the
Trades and Labor Congress of Can
ada.
Officials at the congress show the
work that is being done to secure the
release Of these strikers, who we're
convicted under the seditious con
spiracy law. The bona fde trade
unionists are attempting to have this
law amended on the ground that it is
too vague in its definition and pos
sible of such wide application as to
practically make impossible any or
ganized activity for the betterment Of
social and economic conditions"
The trade unionists say that they are
convinced that the convicted men were

strike leaders as most of them held
minor positions on the strike commit
tee, and many others who were far
more responsible for the direction of
the strike were not interfered with.
1t is declared that the one big
union advocates who called the strike
are using the present situation for
propaganda purposes.
The trade unionists declare for the
upbuiiding OF constitutional authority
and as the law has been vindicated a
review Of the whole matter, with :;
view to the exercise of clemency to-
wards the convicted men, would shoy

After two months of patient and

survey of the opportunities. A ques-
tionaire, wherein some seventy ques-
tions were asked, was sent to each of
them. A great many startling facts
have been revealed by the returns
The following represents the work ac-
complished by the one thousand su-
perannuated preachers during their
years of active service in the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, South. The
figures are not guesswork, but scien-
tifically based on actual reports re-
ceived from the men who did the
work. These facts deserve a care
full reading by all Southern Metho-
dists.
Fruits of Service i'm Church Prop

annuates built 1000 churches at a
cost of $4,000, 900; they repaired s.
600 churches at cost of $4,000, 900;
they built fifteen hundred parsonages
at a cost of $4,000 900; they repaired
three thousand parsonages at cost
of 81, 900, 900; and they secured other
