ganizing themselves to a greater ex-
tent than ever before in the history of
the state. They are insisting upon the
right to have something to say in re-
gard to the price which they shall re-
'cejve for the products of their labor.
In some instances this has resulted in
very definite action. A short time ago
the Milk Producers Association of
southern Illinois, consisting of several
thousand farmer members, were called
upon by some of the large distributing
concerns of the cities to accept a sub
stantial reduction in the price of
their milk products. The farmers,
after vainly endeavoring to secure
some reasonable adjustment of the
controversy, found it necessary to in
augurate strike, during which the
members of the association refused to
furnish milk to the distributing con
Germs. A few years ago the Milk Pro-
ducers' Association in the northern
part of the state, in the vicinity of
Chicago, inaugurated a similar move
ment and were subject to labor iniunc-
tons, prosecutions and police activi-
ties similar to those suffered by mem
bers of labor organizations during
strikes.
During industrial disturbances in
the cities the regular local police force
is available for service against the
strikers. The only force that can be
used against the farmers during their

tia, which is largely composed of
sons. The city business men
and bankers understand this situation
thoroughly and their purpose in advo-

JAMES WELSH
Again Elected President Of
Retail Clerks Union

Retail Clerks Union, Local 119,
held one of those spirited meetings on
last Tuesday night for which
this organization is becoming
famous. There was something doin'
all during the session. The question
of those merchants who persist IN
running their stores wide open on
Sundays in heathenish manner was
given a lengthy discussion, and pre-
parations are being made to go after
them Immediately after the holiday
season. Somebody is going to pay
for his greediness.
The election of officers also took
place at this meeting. 1t should
have occurred at the previous meet
ing. but Uncle Jim Welsh, who pre-
sides, after looking over the assem-
blage, must have concluded that his
"fences" were not secure enough, SO
he declared that the election would
Law over until next meeting mght
AS it is almost worth ones life to dis
pute any of Jim's mandates or ac-
t;ons. there was no dissenting voice
end so the matter went over. Things
looked pretty good to Jim at this meet
ing. and he declared the election on
No doubt the stage was all set. But
it was only after a hard battle that
"Czar jim" put down the enemy.
Sammy Schwartz also found opposi-
ton staring him in the, face for the
position of secretary, which he has so
assiduously and faithfully Cd filled
during the past year. But there is
no chance against Sammy in the
Clerks Union, especially when the
ladies are present, as they were at
this meeting. The election resulted
as follows:
President, James Welsh; vice presi-
dent, Urban Hurry; financial secre-
tary-treasurer, Robert Fallert; re-
cording secretary, Sam Schwartz;
guide, C. j. Foreman; delegate to
Trades Council, 18 months, Robert

Monster Weapons Of War at Gibraltar
Covered by Beautiful Clusters
Of Acacia Blossoms.

While the rock Of Gibraltar viewed
from the ocean, Is impressive, strong,
gloomy and fOrbidding. flowers grow
about the steep walls, and the great
Victorian batteries, occasionally fired,
are screened and sheltered by acacia
blossoms. Here are concealed 100
ton guns sinister and threatening,
marking the highest achievement in
gun development by British engineers.
The north and northwest sides of
the rock are honeycombed by fortifi-
cations. There Is a town and harbor
on the west protected by batteries and
forts rising from the base to the sum-
NIT Of the rocks. Modern guns Of the
most formidable pattern frown from
the heights. The town Is inhabited
by British colony Of about 25000
persons, according to the 1911 census.
Everything Is under strict military
regulations.

FIRST REAL money WIZARD"
John Law May Well Be Called the
Daddy Of All the Get-Rick. Quick
Schemes Floated.

Two centuries ago there "reigned"
young king. Louis XIV, or his regent,
the duke of Orleans-a money wizard,
whose operations are recalled by the
Ponzi speculative scheme In Boston.
He was John Law, a Scotsman, who
through his friendship with the duke
of Orleans, established credit bank
on the theory that money is the cause,
not the result Of wealth. He obtained
for the bank a monopoly Of the na-
tiOn's foreign trade, the profits of
which would repay the investors.
In 1716 Law established private
bank with capital Of 100000 livres.
with power to issue notes. II became
an instant success and his paper cur
rency became more valuable than the
minted currency Of the government.
Then he formed his company of the
west, developing Louisiana territory,
with capital of 10O,OOOOOO livres.
New Orleans was built. Trade ex-
panded. Shares In the company rose
In value until first Paris and then the
whole Of Europe went mad. Every
one was growing rich. Law became
director general of finance for France.
But the height was reached in De-
cember Of 1719, when his enemies, by
side schemes, began to break him. He
suddenly found himself bankrupt. He
escaped from France, became a wan.
derer and died In poverty.

Quaint Industries.

Observation Of the worlds industri.
ais reveals some very quaint calllngs,
for there are queer habits and strange
desires on the part Of various races,
and always there are those who cater
to those customs or undertake to sup.
ply the wants. AS queer trade or
profession as any Is that of "tooth.
staIner," which HOurishes in parts Of
Asia, where the natives regard black
teeth as q crowning beauty. The tooth
stainer, equipped with little brushes
and boxes Of coloring matter. calls on
his customers at regular intervals. In
general, the operation is not unlike
that Of blackine o shoe.
