lence, under the leadership Of avowed

as the evidence later showed, either
by the employers Or those in sym
pathy with them. II the second
strike, not only did tie workers net
resort to sucn methods, but they took
special precautions to provide against
others doing so. whether friend or

unions. So far as know. no5 Ia

a divided allegiance. These charges
are made not only by the employers,
but by many skilled workers them

truth IL all of them. 1t may help
us to estimate them more fairly if we
recall that similar charges are brought
against the civil service rules of the
Fa3eral Government. Both civil SER
vice and labor unions give security
20 the less competent employees; they
cannot be discharged except upon
chrages which are difficult at times

have to pay for the civil service,
which with all its defects, is infinite

remedy seems to lie in the educational
process at work in the service itself;
standards of efficiency are being set
up, employees proud Of their depart

1880 two automobiles collided on
the corner of Washington street and
Broadway, near the Standard Oil
filling station. Mrs. Howard Hurd
was driving her Ford coupe north
on Washington street and Jack De-
laney, Of Freeport was coming west
on Broadway. He was nearly across
the street when Mrs. Hurd's car
caught the rear end of the Delaney
car, both cars crashing into the
on the corner, smashing
it in three pieces. 1t was one of
those unfortunate accidents that seem
at times. Neither car
was damaged very much. The radi-
ator on the Hurd car was dented and
the lights smashed.

PHELPS CEMETERY ASSOCIATION
Directors and Officers Elected Meet

Valued at $4,000.

The Phelps Cemetery Association
held their annual meeting at the
Winneshiek County State Bank last
week, and the old board of directors
were reelected, with one new mem
Der, A. Leytze, who was elected to
fill a vacancy. The board consists
Of |. w. Brunt, R. F. B. Portman,
Chas. Haas, A. N. Vance, j. C.
Beard, r. Algyer, c. ]. Weiser and
A. Leytze.
A grounds committee was chosen
consisting of the following: L. L.
Caldwell, A. Leytze and Warren E.
Hoyt.
At the conclusion of the stock
holders meeting, the board of direc-
tors elected r F. B. Portl~an, presl,
dent; J. C. Bearu, wee president;
r. Algyer, secretary and C. j..
Weiser, treasurer.
The cemetery is in excellent shape,
the ground being very beautiful,
kept so under the guidance of A. N.
Vance, the superintendent. The value
of the property has been placed at a
little in excess of $4,000.
The west road leading to the
cemetery has been graded up in
fine shape and is now in good shape
for travel. Last year stone arch
bridge was built across the ravine
below the grounds, which was a
feature that made access to the
grounds easy. People are requested
to use this west road at any time
they wish.

Pears Raised i'm CrescO

John Kakac has had remarkable
success in raising pears in this To-
cality where it is thought almost i'm
possible to do so on account of win
ter-kill, the trees usually not being
able to withstand our severe winters.
About ten years ago he planted sew
eral trees on his place in town but
they got a bad start as horses in an
adjoining lot browsed off them for
two or three years. This year the
tree hung rather full but the on
slaught Of marauding boys compelled
an early picking before the pears
were fully ripened. However, the
fruit was firm and well favored and
fully equal to much shipped in. Mr..
Kakac intends to 10 some grating
from the trees next season and see
if the hardness of this particular
tree will not be of value in an effort
to propagate hardy pear trees suited
to this climate.-Cresco Plain Dealer.
