1.-THE custer Of the socialist men,
bers of the assembly is an act OF
incredibly flagrant disregard OF the
Fundamental principles of American
institutions" said Mr.. Hughes.
II am absolutely opposed to social
ism, and it is because wish to see
our institutions preserved that think
this action, which is Of the essence
Of sonetism, should be denounced.
''It is the more flagrant because
these members Of the assembly had
Just been reelected in accordance
with our laws and at a fair election
and because, so far as provisions OF
the constitution Of the socialist party
gave any pretext for the previous
custer, these had been removed"

Record Production in Northern
Woods Forecastsd for Winter.
Brentwood, Wis. Sept. /22.--That
the coming winter will produce q
record breaking log harvest thruout
northern Wisconsin is the prediction
of lumbermen and businessmen In
the vicinity. High prices paid for
lumber. and other products. such al
railroad ties. telephone and telegraph
poles. and bridge timbers. require ex-
ira work in the woods this year. An
other feature regarding numbering
next winter is that woodsmen will
receive the largest wages In history.
Altho there is nothing definite so
far. 1t is thought that 500 per month
and board and room viii be paid
Help Is scarce and wages necessarily
must be high. The standard wage
for sawyers, many believe. will be
about $125.
The caterpillar tractor will serve
many northern Wisconsin logging
companies. 1t has been selected be-
cause 1t can be used In the winter
months to haul several loads OF logs
at once over Ice roads.

Workmen Tell Of Conversation With
Driver Of "Dead" Wagon.
BY Associated Press
New York. Sept. 22.--Four work
men appeared at the municipal build
Ing today and declared they had
spoken with the driver of the death
wagon that figured In the Wall street
explosion last Thursday.
The workmen said that five or ten
minutes after the explosion d man
approached them when they were
standing in front OF a building being
razed In the Wall street district.
According to their story, the
stranger said his horse and wagon
had been blown up after he had left
the vehicle to telephone to his en-
ployers. He said he had been ordered
to take building material to Wall
and Broad streets. but he had been
unable to find the addresses given
him. After talking to the workmen
ne disappeared. they said.
The workmen's story served to re-
vive an early theory that the explos-
lon may not have been due to a bomb
plot but to collision between an
automobile and a wagon filled with
explosives.

considerable criticism of spring

buyers. but concerns with large
stocks are pleased. Narrow gray
goods prices are firmer. Retail trade
holds well in wool dress fabrics,
breaking all former records on State

manfacturers have revised their
prices downward Sc to So for the best
makes. now ranging around $50 a
