line-reading.
Perhaps college girls read the pa,
pers about as the rest of the public
does, though possibly with less avid
interest in sports. But it would be
instructive to have a similar poll of
a mems college for comparison. 1t
was found that 96 per cent. of the
Radcliffe students read the newspa-
pers habitually and, as the answers
to the QUESTIONABLE show, intelli
gently. Is the percentage as high
"up the street" at Harvard?
At all events, the exhibit of live
ly interest by college women in the
current news of the world is COM
mendable. Newspapers are nowadays
read in class in some colleges as part
of the course Of instruction. But
their most important influence is
exerted at the students breakfast
table. In reading them regularly
the Radcliffe girls wisely follow the
old precept that nothing of human
concern is foreign to their interest.

'DODE" PHILLIPS.

BY the consensus of opinion OF
football judges, the best football
player. in South Carolina this season,
and one of the best yet produced,
halls from Erskine College. His name
is "Dods" Phillips.
Not the least of his remarkable
achievements is getting on the front
page of the conservative Charleston
News and Courier which says of him
"Phillips is as great a player
as ever performed in this State,
was the almost universal verdict,
and hundreds, it can be safely
said, consider him the greatest"
"In addition to his wonderful
playing ability, he is a clean
player. Phillips plays to win, but
he plays a clean game all of the
time"
His versatility, ability and clean
ness are not the only things about
him that deserve commentator, for
it is generally understood that he
has had handsome offers from yari-
Gus colleges, one of them a great
Northern university, to leave Erskine
and play on larger and more nota-
BILE team. He has refused them, how
ever, and that is highly creditable to
him. With fine loyalty he chooses to
stand by the little college at Due
West.
This system of big colleges and
universities drafting the best players
from the smaller institutions does
not appeal to US in the interest of
the best amateur sport. 1t smacks too
much of the practice of professional
baseball. It is going to be outlawed-
ard it should be.
The chances OF clean, able foot
ball player at small college for af-
terward scoring a touchdown on the
great gridiron of life are just as
good as if he attended a greater in
Stitution. If a man does his best in
MS own particular sphere, no matter
low small it may be, he is entitled to
as much credit as the similarity sue
,cessful man in a greater sphere.
In life, as in football, nothing bet
er can be said of man than that he
plays to win, but he plays a clean
,ame all of the time. e."-Greenville.

and that of the trainmen, they said.
While all of the union chiefs main
tanned that the strike question was
technically taken on the July wage
cut, all admitted that the other ques-
tions would probably figure in any
settlement leading to calling off the
strike.
Questioning Of the union leaders
brought out that vote against the
strike had been returned on twenty
three roads by the conductors, on
fourteen roads by the trainmen and
on three roads by the fremen. CASH
en- said the switchmen on every sys-
tenn voted in favor of striking.

CENSURE BLANTON
Take Milder Method Than Outright
Expulsion.

Expulsion.
Washington, Oct. 27.-Substitu-
tion of vote to censure instead of
expulsion Of Representative Blanton
of Texas was proposed in the house
today by Representative Garret, Ten
nessee, the acting democratic leader,
after the Texas representative had
made a dramatic defense of his ac-
ton in inserting in the Congression-
al Record matter characterized as
Objectionable by house leaders.
The Garret resolution declared
that in offending the house and peo-
pie by publication of offensive mat
ter in the record, Mr.. Blanton de-
served "the severe rebuke and dras-
tic censure of the house." 1t also d.
rected the speaker to reprimand the
Texas representative publicly at the
bar of the house.
Adoption of the resolution was ask
ed by the republican leader who de-
clared that while it was proper to in
form the public of the reasons for
what the house was called upon to
do, "the publication which is the ba-
sis of the charge is of such a char
acter that it cannot be presented on
the floor"

ITHERE WILL BE NO STRIKE.

The strike order has been revok
ed, or recalled, whichever is the pro
per term. Nothing has been decided
so far as we can learn. Neither the
railroads nor the labor unions either
gain orlos anything, so far as the
recall order is directly concerned.
The strike recall order is issued be,
cause public opinion was arrayed a.
gainst the proposed strikers and they
saw no chance, to obtain their objec-
tives. At least that is what one of the
officials of the labor unions is re-
ported to have stated. We think he
about sized up the situation.
=: The result will be worth while we
think. The public for the first time
made itself felt in controversy of
this kind, and its stand was the con-
trolling factor. 1t will be worth
while for the railroad executives and
the railroad workmen as we'll to take
careful note of this fact. No move
ment is going to succeed that cannot
command the support of the public.
A movement WHICH is condemned by
the public in avadnce is doomed to
defeat. 1t will not reach its objec-
tives. .
We think that the railroad work
men will learn a good deal from
their efforts this time. They will
learn to be more conservative. They
will learn to look on both sides Of a
question hereafter before undertak-
ing to force a decision. Those of them
whoimagine d that their will is law
and that they are not governed by
the rules which apply to men gener-
ally, will have found out something
20 the contrary.
That the workmen for the rail-
roads will have cause for grievance
in the future nobody VIII deny.
These grievances must be remedied.
But other means will be adopted to
reach just settlements before resort
is had to an ultimatum. In order that
these grievances may be considered
on their merits, it is necessary that
they have merit in them. We believe
that it will be necessary for the la
boring men to reorganize their fore
es and to move along different lines
hereafter if they want to command
public sympathy, without which they
may not secure their demands. 1t
is our purpose in future issues to
notice some of the things which both
sides must do in order to promote
industrial peace.
Until then everybody will feel re-
Eeved that the strike did not come
off. Nobody will be hurt by the decis-
ion reached we hope. That prosper.
ity and good will may grow as re-
suit of it, let US all hope.

FINAL ATTEMPT TO
PREVENT STRIKE
AT CONFERENCE WHEN UNION
CHIEFS, LABOR BOARD AND
- EXECUTIVES MEET-REQUEST
BY BROTHERHOOD LEADERS
TO MAKE ANNOUNCEMENT

Chicago, Oct. 27.-The govern.
ment will make it's final attempt to
prevent the threatened general rail
road strike this morning at 8 o'clock,
when president, general charmen
end executive committees of the five
train service unions meet here at a
conference reported to haye been ar
ranged at the instigation of the Uni
ted States Railroad Labor Board.
The boards investigation of the
causes of the strike threat ended
abruptly at $3.50 tonight, when the
five union leaders asked permission
to make announcement to their men.
Executives of the Big Four BROTH
erhoods and the Switchmen's Union
Of North America, after day Of
verbal jockeying with the United
States Railroad Labor Board, de-
clared late today that no power on
earth save a satisfactory settle
ment" can prevent their men walk
ing out, beginning next Sunday
morning at o'clock.
Their declaration came at the close
of a day of fruitless questioning
when Judge R. M. Barton, chairman
of the labor board, called each union
president in turn and asked him for
four prepared questions, the third of
which was:
off the board shall declare strike
and direct that the employees not
strike, will that order be obeyed?"
The union chiefs, Warren S. Stone
of the engineers; W. G. Lee of the
trainmen; L. E. Sheppard, of the con-
ductors; w. S. Carter of the firemen
and T. C. Cashen, of the switchmen,
declared in turn they had no power
to cancel the strike order, expressed
the individual opinion that their men
would not obey an order from them
or the board to remain at work, and
re terated their previous declara-
tlcns that "only satisfactory settle
tlcmeat" could avert the walkout.
Such a settlement, they said, would
be reconsideration by the labor board
of it's IL per cent wage reduction or
der of last July l or movement
by the individual railroads to con-
fer with the unions and set aside the
boards order.
w. S. Carter declared settlement
should also reimburse the men for
the pay lost since July as a result
of the wage cut.
The other three questions asked
the union leaders were:
"Who or what authority in your
labor organization can withdraw the
order to strike or stop strike?
Suppose you, the chief executive
of your organization, or your execu- !
tive. committee, issued an order or !
statement that strike should not |
occur, do you not believe the strike !
would be prevented?
"W;ll ycu, as chief executive, use
your power and influence to see that
the orders of the board on the mat
ter be obeyed?"
That the government contemplates
proceedings against the
unions for violation of the Transpor-
:a:ion Act was indicated by the trend
