STILL MISSING IN ACTION

According to The Home Sec
tor, the ex-soldier's magazine
conducted by the former editor
ial council of The Stars and
Stripes, there are still between
$50 and 800 members of the
American front line army still
unaccounted for.
In speaking of this war mys-
terry of missing men the ex-sol-
dier's magazine says: Soldiers
who go into battle are like men
who go down to the sea in ships
There are those who return and
those who do not, those who live
and those who die. And then
there are those who dwell for
years in a twilight zone of uncer-
tainty, neither life nor death,
from which no word ever comes
back to the shores called home.
"A few weeks ago the news
papers of the country announc-
ed that there were no more
members of the A. E. F.. miss
ing in action" The only reason
they are not missing in action is
that they have been "presum-
ed dead"
There are still between $50
and 800 members of the Ameri-

HOME FROM WAR
Served in u. s. Army for Twen
tyseven Months

With a record Of two years and
three months service, Magnus
Peterson, nephew of Martin and
Fred Peterson of this city, is
back in town, having just arriv-
ed from Camp Dodge. He was
with the 341st machine gun bat
talon which went into action
first at Limey. He was also in
the st. Mihiel drive and was in
advance Of and covered the
same ground covered by the
147th field artillery, at one time
the lines being within one half
a mile of each other and that
CLOSE to Battery G. Peterson had
his left leg badly splintered by
a machine gun bullet in Novem-
Der Whileon the front line, and
came back to this country and
to Camp Dodge as a stretcher
case in May, 1919, with the in
iured limb three inches shorter
than it should have been. While
at Camp Dodge he was fortu-
nate enoughto come under the
care Of a special surgeon, Major
Durham of New York, who took
more than ordinary interest in
his case and fixed him up so that
at present his limb is only three
quarters of an inch shorter than
it was before being injured.
In the twentyseven months
of service the young man did
not see a person whom he had
known previously, with the ex-
ception of Kenneth Mateer OF
Sully county, who served In the
same division and who was gass-
ed in France. Peterson has
had a pretty serious time of it,
but is now ready to get his full
citizenship papers, he being a
native of Denmark, and will
stay in the United States for a
while at least. t.-Pierre Capital

ADJUDICATION OR DICTA.
TION?

Labor union leaders demand
the right of collective bargain.
ing,' but deny that right to all
the rest of the people of the
country" asserts the Republi-
can Publicity Association, in a
statement given out today by
Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr., presi-
dent of that organization.
'That this assertion is true
may be seen from a brief analy-
sis of the issue presented in pro-
posed railway legislation con-
tinues the associations state
ment. Under present condi-
tions the railway unions assert
and exercise the right and power
to fix their own wages under the
menace Of a threatened strike
tying up all transportation
throughout the country. That
right and power was exercisesa.
in 1916 when the enactment of
the Infamous Adamson law was
forced by the four brotherhoods.
with the backing of the fedora
ton cf labor. The wage-increase
secured through the Adamson
law was not collective bargain
ing or bargaining of any kind.
1t was peremptory demand and
threat on one side and an abso-
lutte surrender on the other. The
unions demanded and the gov
ernment of the United States
all the people of the United
States-surrendered.
The Cummins railroad bill
proposes to change that situa-
tion and substitute collective
bargaining or adjudication for
dictation.
I'm any controversy over rail-
road wages, the parties at issue
are the employees on the one
hand and the rest of the people
of the country on the other, for,
in the ultimate analysis, the peo-
pie pay the railroad employees
wages. If there is to be collec-
tive bargaining, therefore, there
should be and must be adequate
representation of the people who
pay the wage,
THE Cummins bill proposes
that instead of a strike to fix
the scale of wages, there shall be
established a governmental tri-
bunal which shall take into con-
sideration all related facts and
render a decision determining
what Is a proper wage. No en-
ployee is bound to accept that
wage, but is assured his right to
quit, individually. For the pro-
tectioa of the rights of all the
people, however, the Cummins
bill makes it unlawful for two or.
more persons to enter into a con-
spiracy to interfere with inter
state commerce-which provi-
sion would prohibit 4 general
strike tying up railroad service.
The railroad and other un-
ions denounce that feature of
the Cummins bill and demand
continuance of power over rail-

|MRS.W.J.EDDY'S
DEATH THE CAUSE
OF DEEP REGRET
Was Splendid Force in the
Church and in the
Community.

A wave of sadness swept over this
community Sunday morning when the
announcement was made that Mrs.
Eila Webb Eddy, wife of the Rev. w
% Eddy, pastor of the First Baptist
church, had passed away at Cook hos
pitaf where she had been patient for
q week. While 1t was known that Mrs
Eddy's condition was critical she had
seemed to improve slightly during the
past few days and despite the fact that
the seriousness of her condition was
realized nevertheless her many friends
in this city held out the hope that she
might eventually recover.
Mrs. Eddy had been in declining
health for a number of years and
various means were sought to restore
her to health. Despite these efforts
she continued to grow worse and was
often i'll for weeks at her home. About
ten days ago she was taken violently
III and 1t was then discovered that au
operation would be necessary and she
fFrs removed to Cook hospital. She
ysshained there for several days and
IN last Friday week the operation was
performed. The seriousness OF her
condition was realized and little hope
was entertained for her recovery.
However she had shown signs of i'm
proyemerit until several days ago when
The grew much worse.

Eddy submitted to the TRANSMISSION Of
blood on Sunday following the opera
ton. .e,
Mrs. Eddy was universally loved and
respected in this community where
she had resided for more than twenty
years having come here as the bride
OF Rev. Eddy shortly after he took
charge Of this pastorate which he has
maintained for a period of almost "a
years. Until i'll health incapacitated
her from active duties she was a most
loyal and faithful helpmeet to her hus-
band and was active in all the affairs
of the church. To her husband she
was a great stimulus in his work and
her death has left him desolate. Pre-!
vious to her marriage she had spent
some time in Fairmopt and vicinity
engaged in missionary wo$k. She did
as much perhaps as any one individual
in the state to bring about better con-
ditions in the outlying districts and
made long and hard trips into the in
terror of the state that a less cour-
ageous nature than hers would have
rebelled against. 1t was while she was
engaged in this missionary work that
the friendship which eliminated in the
marriage of DR.. and Mrs. Eddy, began.
Mrs. Eddy was possessed OF an I'M
usually brilliant intellect and this
manifested itself in everything she was
called upon to do in church or club or
at home. She was a home maker in
the strictest sense of the word also.
and though other duties pressed hard
upon her she never by word or deed
neglected the family or home circle.
In this home circle she was loved
member and the Joys aud sorrows OF
each member of the family was
brought to the footstool of mother.
Mrs. Ella Webb Eddy was born in
Plymouth. Illinois, November %, 1872,
being AZ years of age her last birth
day. At the age of fourteen her fam
lily moved to Kansas City, where she
remained about ten years. Having
completed the public school work in
Kansas City she entered the Mission
airy Baptist Training school at Chi
cago. from which she graduated in the
spring Of 1884. After graduating she
came to West Virginia under direction
of the American Baptist Womans'
Home Mission society to serve as as
sistant pastor at Wheeling and Park
ersburg, six months at each place.
