The Ant Campaign
Will Be Started Soon

The administration. assisted by
the Civic Clubs. will go after the
ants, which, within the last few
years. have attacked and captured
the city. The pests, it is claimed,
can be as effectually destroyed by
the slow poison process as the Ger
man Kaiser hoped to destroy, with
insidious poison gas, the armies
that fought against his empire.
The Kaiser failed. thanks to God,
but the city will not fail to deliver
the housewives from the ravages of
the destructive and annoying ants,
if only all will join effort and do
their part. The campaign will
start as soon as the poison syrup
and containers reach the city.
Every block viii. be supplied with
containers baited with the poison
syrup that will ha placed in trees
and on other eleFations outside the
dwellings. so thslt1 the ants may
feast and die OF the feasting. We
are nearly rid of mosquitoes, and
there are but few flies. Let MS de-
stroy the ants. keep after the mos
quitoes and continue swatting the
flies. This Is; everybody's business

The people of the Barttafrachie
Consolidated School District are to
be commended for voting upon the
property of the district six thou
sand dollars of bonds to be used
for the education of their children.
True. it is a bad time under exist
ing high tax conditions to create
additional debts that sooner or later
must be paid: but it must be re-
membered that children can not
wait until they are grown-ups to be
educated. The opportunity is while
they are children. The vote was
35 for to 10 against the bonds.

Her flight from earth was quiet

beautiful brown eyes in sleep. a
gradual drifting away from earthly
moorings. Thus gently she passed
from the home she had made so
dear by her radiant presence and
from the tender place she filed in
so many loving hearts. 1t seemed
as if the home spirit had never

On a golden October day in 1902
she plighted her troth to Judge

in her beloved new home proudly
wore the crown of wifehood and
the diadem of motherhood, as two

The reluctance OF so many OF he
other railroad unions to follow the
big Five" in their projected walk
out is probably not due entirely to
the fact that the railroad workers
have so poor case. There is an
other consideration which works
powerfully against a strike. 1t will
be a -strike-as was the strike OF the
coal miners-against the public and
the government.
Before the Esch- -Cummins law
was passed the Federal government
stood apart from troubles between
the railroads and their employees.
II was a third party. willing to offer
mediation through its conciliation
and arbitration agencies. But these
agencies couldn't act unless their
services were agreeable to the two
contestants The Federal govern
ment, as in President Cleveland's
time, protected the operation OF
mail trains. But It didn't feel
obliged to guarantee the operation
Of other trains.
Now. however, the Railroad Labor
Board. body in which the roads,
the workers and the public are all
represented, is authorized by law to
fix railroad wages. This board,
having ordered an advance OF %
per cent. a year ago. recently order
