"The steam schooner Arethusa,

twenty miles off Point Reyes at six
o'clock last night. The derelict was
down by the head, and her rail just
showed above the water. 1t was i'm
possible to learn her identity.
1.-THE presence of this derelict In
the steamer lanes to North Pacific
ports is distinct menace to naviga-
ton, and I. Is probable that revenue
cutter will be dispatched today to
search for the derelict and either tow
her into port or destroy her."
Gentlemen O. the syndicate, them's

is, in which lies our fortuneT
Neils Halvorsen spoke up, giving It
as his opinion that the fortune-telling
lady probably knew her business and
that their fortune really lay at sea.
The derelict was at sea. How else,
then, could the prophecy be inter-
preted7
"Well, this steamer Victor isn't ex-
actly travelling overland" McGuffey
suggested. He had secret honSering
to mess around some real engines
again. and gave It as his opinion that
fortune was more likely to Turk in a
solid stern-wheel steamer with good
engines and boilers than in a battered
hulk at sea. Captain Scraggs agreed
with him most heartily and tie vote

the derelict. sis

THE first named steamer, owned
by the shipping board, and operated
by the Admiral line, recently arrived
in Seattle with a crew of Chinese
hired at Hongkong at the Chinese rate
of wages, and was said to be carrying
129 more Orientals to be transferred
to the Bay State. They were later,
however, tranferred to the Pine Tree
State instead to replace crew of
As American citizens
THE patriotic American ship own
ers have almost succeeded in their
contemplated plan of reducing sea-

cause of this policy, even the Chinese
crews on shipping board vessels are

while doing this our ship owners
are attempting to rob the public
treasury through the subsidy fraud.
At the same time they have mater

MONEY IN STOCK JOB

New York-The vast sums mulcted

himself only a clerk. DER, it was
stated, pulled down" 100000 last

The firm sold $1,400,O00 of stock of

but the only asset this company has
is contract to buy mines in Mexico.
The federal commissioner was told
that if the mining property had been
acquired it would take between $3,-

Asked if the buyers of the ST. AGO.

"can't-strike" legislation, but to Sc
cure its passage gumshoe methods,

The builders passed resolution in
favor of outlawing strikes and then
appointed committee to survey con-

advisable to push the plan. Organ
lied labor in this state has made such
an outcry against this law that the

EXPOSED BY McAD00
DOUBLE DEALING RAIL MANAGERS INSISTED
WAGES BE INCREASED DURING WAR TO
HOLD EMPLOYEES NOW BLAME
GOVERNMENT FOR
HIGH WAGES
Former Director General of Railroads Shows Up Moral
Dishonesty of Supposed High Minded"
Business Men

1t is significant that the double
dealing managers have not replied to
the testimony of the former director,
and newspapers that have aided the
managers in their present propaganda
are likewise silent
Answering the charge that the rail-
roads were mismanaged under govern
ment control, Mr. McAdoo showed
that the executive personnel of the
railroads was retained by the govern
ment. If there was ineffciency and
extravaganza in 1918, he said, the
managers were guilty, and if they
were not guilty then, they are now
guilty of attempting to besmirch their
own record.
"Fhe railroads collapsed because of
the war and the government was
compelled to act" said Mr. McAdoo.
What pretense can these managers
make, that they could have produced
better results than the government
when they signally failed to function
efficiency not only during the first
five months of 1918, but also in 1916
and 1917, as shown by the ,cathing
criticism of the railroad corporations
by the interstate commerce commits
sion, in its decision of January 18,
1917"
The former director said that on

Washington - Railroad managers
who were directing their properties
under government control were most
insistent, during the war, that rail
road wages be raised to hold en-
ployes. These managers now blame
the government for wages that were
never high, as compared with other
callings, said former Director General
of Railroads McAdoo in testifying
on the railroad situation before the
senate committee on interstate COM
merce.
The witness unfolded sordid tale
of double-dealing by the railroad man
ayers. 1t was shown that President
Smith, of the New York Central,
President Rea, of the Pennsylvania,
and other we'll known executives in
sisted that the railroad administra-
tion increase wages.
The managers acknowledged that
wages paid by them were low, and
they agreed with the Franklin K.
Lane report which stated that when
the government took control of the
roads 81 per cent of all railroad en-
ployes were paid but $75 a month or
less.
These rail managers now charge the
railroad administration with being re-
sponsible for high wages and with
wrecking their properties.

SCHOOLS NOT
NEEDED?
Southern Court Receives
Burning" From News
paper for Decision

Greensboro, n C.-1'he Daily News
makes editorial suggestion to the
North Carolina supreme court that ii
quickly get away from its recent
decision that schools are not public
necessity.
The court ruled that schools differ
from certain other utilities, as water
works, electric lights, court houses
and prisons, in that schools are not a
public necessity, whereas, the others
are; therefore, the public credit can
not be pledged for erection of school
buildings by governing bodies in their
representative capacity, but such use
of public credit must be authorized by
vote of the people
Everybody, except the supreme
court, says the Daily News, teaches
in North Carolina that education is
4 necessity, public and individual; that
it is the duty of the state, both to
itself and to its citizens as individuals,
that it is the duty Of every citizen
in public or private station to promote
education; that every power, influence
and agency should be eXerted to the
uttermost in promotion of an all
inclusive education, which should be
made better and better, more nearly
