SPREADING OUT.

Doc Jaggers. our shoe repairing ar
fist, has grown beyond a mere cob
bier. He now has shoe store as we'll
as shoe hospital. Doc took over the
shoe repairing establishment when tho
business was pretty we'll run down ut
the heel. Also he was a novice at the
work and had 1t all to learn. 1t was a
bold stroke on his part, but he was out
of meat and had to do something. He
soon afterward took in H. B. Edgerton
who also had the work to learn, but
was so proficient picking 1t up that
he is now shoe repairer with few
equals. The firm did good work and
built up a thriving business. They
wanted to spread out, but were shy the
necessary cash, so had to confine
themselves to doctOring old footwear
and abide their time. Recently they
have seen their way clear to put in a
stock Of shoes, and were careful to Sc
lect line of goods that could be war
ranted to wear and yet were within
the reach of men Of moderate means.
The interior Of the building in which
they hold forth has been rearranged,
shelving added and choice line Of
goods put on display. The members
Of the firm have at last commenced to
realize their dreams. and today are
travelling road that is going to lead
to success. They have worked hard, de-
MED themselves in order to make
both ends meet and are now on the
up grade in a business way. In the
line of repairing especially they are
doing most creditable work, and doing
that work at a much less cost than it
can be done in any other shop in the
country. They contemplate other i'm
provements in the building that will
give them more room to handle their
increasing trade.

The first gun in the campaign to

The manifesto urged workers in all
republics of the western hemisphere
to affiliate and organize a national
labor body, which in turn would af-
Hliate with the Psn-American FEEDER
alton OF Labor.
Special efforts will be made to
bring to the congress delegations

COLLAPSE THREATENS
CERMANY'S RAILROADS
Condition Attributed by Supervising
Official to Inefficiency Of
Shop Employees.
By KARL II. Won wIEGAND.
UniyersaI Service.D

BERLIN, Feb. 1.--Coliapse OF the
entire railway transportation system
is the latest danger confronting Ger
many. according to the statement of
Railway Minister Oeser before the
Prussian assembly.
The minister painted the condition
OF the railways in the darkest colors,
throwing glaring light on the
steadily decreasing efficiency of the
employees and shop work.
Since the revolution, he said, the
number of employees in the railway
shops has increased go per cent as
compared with the peace-time roster.
Notwithstanding this" he added,
"the efficiency Of the workers has
steadily decreased. Last week 500
more locomotives went into the shops
than came out. The number of loco-
motives awaiting repairs is increas-
ing rapidly
on January IS the total was 1888.
On January II we had no less than
l0,7O7 locomotives In need OF repairs.
That is A per cent OF those we have
In servicce. This is an impossible
state of affairs. the consequences OF
which will be the inevitable collapse
OF transportation and with IL our
whole economic situation"

INDUSTRIAL BOARD
BEGINS FINAL WORK
Committee of Seventeen Starts
on PeriIous Waters of Chart
ing Complete Report.

President Wilson's second indus
trial conference has practically COM
pleted its preliminary lsbors and this
week will embark on the perilous
waters of a final report formulation.
Since 1t resumed work on January
II the conference has been spending
all Of its time in listening to wit
nesses from all over the country.
The conferences preliminary re-
port has been both praised and con-
demned by the witnesses before the
seventeen men, VINO comprise the
conference.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, for
instance. together with the head of
one OF the largest employers organ
izations in the country, were unit
in condemning the plan.
How much of the original tentative
plan will be retained in the final
recommendations of the conference to
President Wilson is not known. The
members of the conference generally
believe that basically the idea Of
industrial courts is sound, and they
are loathe TO reject 1t, according to
reports.
The chief representatives OF capital
and labor have told the conferees
that their differences were private and
therefore unamenable to any quasi
official Jurisdiction, but the con-
ferees maintain, as does the Presi-
dent, that the public interest is para
mount in every industrial dispute.
This coming week the conference
will begin to formulate its final plan,
and will concern itself otherwise with
two outstanding subjects, as follows:
First--Consider changes in the ten
tative plan.
Second-Tske up subjects which
were not covered in the tentative
plan.
In the latter category is the aues-
ton OF shop organization, a plan
which has received general praise
from the men who appeared before
the conference. Shop organization,
however. is operated under a dozen
or more methods, and while IL has
been a success in unionized as we'll
as open shops. the conference will
have TO work out n plan OF shop or
ganization that may serve as a basis
of all proposals in this direction.
