Cincinnati, O., Dec. 15. At the national conference on child labor held here, John II. Morgan, state inspector of workshops and factories in Ohio, i delivered an address in which he said: "As the people of the Ohio valley ar one industrially as well as geographically, the lawg of these states should' be uniform, not only to insure easier enforcement, but to .protect the manufacturers who are thrown into close competition In this territory. I should not, however, be willing to see

V-any state lower its , present standard

to secure this uniformity of law, and do not believe it will be necessary. To be effec ive, the child labor law should be simple, practical and enforceable, and with this in mind I present , the following as a good working foundation on which to build: I First No child under 14 years old hall be employed, regardless as to time, occupaticn or conditions. Second Boys under 16 and girls unfler 18 year3 shall not be employed after 7 p. m., nor before 6 a. m., nor at any occupation that Is dangerous to life. Injurious to health, or likely to

deprave morals. The list of Occupa

tions should be stated clearly In the

statute, and made to Include all places

here Intoxicating beverages are man-

ij lifactured or sold, as well as all the

tobacco industries. Third Miners; under 18 shall not be mployed for a longer period than eight hours in one day, nor more than 63 in one week. Fourth Miners between the ages of 14 and 18 years shall present age and schosl certificates ( issued under , the direction of the superintendents of public schools, same to be kept on file in the office of the establishment where employed. ' Fifth A child desiring a certificate must appear before the superintendent of schools, accompanied by one of his parents or a guardian, who shall I have an employment slip certifying j that the child has work to go to, and -Jwho shall also be required to certify that the child's wages are necessary for his support. The superintendent should be authorized to inquire Into the facts, and if in doubt as to the worthiness of the claimant, shall refuse the certificate and require the attendance of the child at school. If the certificate Is granted the child shall be required to sign it in his own hand

writing, in order that it may beused

for the purpose of verification.

Sixth Employers . of minors between 14 and 18 years shall keep a register containing the name, age, birthplace and residence of every such minor, same to be open to the inspec- , tlon of authorized officers. Seventh The inspector shall have authority to take any child into custody or require It to leave the establishment in the event of his refusal to ! rive name and age, when there is reasonable ground for doubt as to the child being of legal age. Eighth A physicial standard should ! fcs required, as well as a mental. , 1 I wish also to suggest that the compulsory education laws be enforced by Itate officers in stead of local, and that these officers be required to enforce all the provisions of the child labor and compulsory education laws. J It is my sincere opinion that the Ohio law should be amended so that parents or guardians could be prosecuted for falsifying as to the age of minors, for until parents and guardians are made to understand that they are as liable to prosecution as the employers, we will have more or

less trouble with this particular fea- - tore of the law."

TICS ADlirRAL DOCBASSOre. exploded with great force, but only slightly wounded the admiral. The would-be assassins were arrested. Doubassoff had a remarkable escape. The terrorists made a very determined attack on him. One man approached the adrriral and fired several shots at him with a revolver, but missed. The terrorists then threw a bomb at Doubasoff, which exploded and wounded the admiral in the leg. A

bystander seized the'admiral's assailant, whereupon a second terrorist appeared and went through exactly the same performance. The second bomb thrown, however, did not explode and Doubassoff, although injured, closed with the terrorist and held him until he was taken into custody. Lookout Mountain Tunnel. Chattanooga, Dec. ,15. The tunnel through Lookout mountain, driven by the Southern railway, Is finished. The

traffic manager of the Illinois Central-

railroad. He said the European steamer agent of his road arranged with a steamship line to run immigrant steamers between New Orleans and European ports. Hanson said the

boats will begin running as soon as the new immigrant station is erected at this place.

Woman For Juror. Ripley, O., Dec. 15. For the first

time in its history Brown county will

have a woman grand juror, the name

of Mrs. S. L. Bodmer having been drawn from the Jury wheel. Mrs. Bodmer owns a bakery and restaurant in Ripley and is a fine business woman. Several Important cases will come before this grand jury. Several attorneys have" given notice that they will protest against Mrs. Bodmer's serving

as a member of the jury. Lamsdorff III. St. Petersburg, Dec. 15. Count Lamsdorff, minister for foreign affairs, is seriously ill of heart disease, accompanied by other weakness.

Publishers' Press. Washington, D. C, Dec. 15. The Interstate Commerce Commission stands pat on its interpretation of the railroad rate law that newspapers cannot exchange advertising for transportation. A committee representing the nat

ional editorial association held a

hearing before the Commission today

in which the subject was fully and freely discussed. The association

holds that the ruling of the Commis

sion abrogates the right of cantract, and that a newspaper and a railroad have a perfect right to enter into a legitimate exchange agreement.

Chairman Knapp, of the Commis

sion stated unequivocally that anything with a variable value could not legally be a medium of exchange. Has His Suspicions. "I would regard," said he, "with grave suspicion any contract entered by a railroad for advertising for which payment is to be made in transportation." J. E. Junkins, of Sterling, Kan., in behalf of, he Association, asked whether it would not be permissible for a newspaper concern to enter in

to a contract for advertising with a

railroad and then before payment

should be made to draw on that rail

road for the amount of contracts in mileage books or straight tickets. Chairman Knapp said he did not feel

that he should answer the question at this time.

In response to an inquiry he ex

plained that the Commission had no

authority over the matter of railroads exchanging transportation for

advertising strictly within the state.

LITTLE MARY BLUE TO DEAR OLD SANTA

In the Palladium's mail last night was the following appeal to Santa Claus from a Centervllle .little girl: Dear Old Santa Claus Don't forget my doll and go-cart and my little broom. I am a good little gfrl. Little Mary Blue. The Palladium can't answer for Santa Claus, but believing that little

Mary has told the truth about being a good girl, the editor believes it pretty certain that old Santa Claus will remember her nicely.

culosls Dr. T. D. Crothers of Hartford

Conn., the head of an institution in

that city for the treatment of inebria

tetf, took occasion to point out the close

connection that existed between al cohollsm and tuberculosis. The prin

clpal point presented by Dr. Crothers in his address is that alcohol weakens the blood vessels of the respiratory system and invites consumption; that

the roll of consumptives receives an

nually vast additions from the ranks

of moderate drinkers. A reduction of

our national drinking capacity, there

fore means a reduction in the sum

ber of victims of the great white

Limit of Safe Prosperity. (New York-Sun.)

Replying to a question regarding the

probable results of the present session of congress a distinguished senator said that he hoped that nothing would be done which would tend tc increase our national prosperity. The statement is a little startling until it is carefully digested." The United States may be said to be crippled by the present prosperity. We have not

laborers enough to do our work; we

have not cars enough to move our

crops and our merchandise and there is even a shortage of money for the proper conduct of business. As a nation, we are gorged with prosperity and It may be that we are near to the danger line, if not actually upon it. Wisdom may He in effort to hold what we have rather than in . efforts

to obtain Immediately a greater abun dance.

Forts In the Philippines. (Washington Post)

We are in the Philippines. Are we

going to stay there? If yes then it

is time to fix for It It is foolish al

ways to play the ostrich. There is one

way to "fix" and that, is to make the salient points of the islands impreg

nable against any force an enemy can bring against them or any one of them and create a navy that can drive an enemy from the archipelago. A very religious general admonished his army: "Trust in God but keep your powder dry.". Cromwell had little doubt that as between an army with dry powder and one-with wet God would be on the side of the former. There is not much piety in that reflection but there is an abundance of logic in it.

Big Crop in Prospect (Hartford, Conn., Times.)

The preliminary indications are that

next year, too, there will be abundant

material to put into the nation's bread basket The official statistician's report that the new acreage of winter wheat is larger by 353,000 acres than that of last year and that the present condition of the crop is the same as

that for last year's harvest at the corresponding time. Of course many things may happen between now and

next spring, but the early indications of a bumper wheat crop in 1907 are profoundly gratifying.

Causes of Taking Cold.

(Youth's Companion.) (

If one who had caught a cold will

take thought he will often find that he has prepared himself for the infection by some tax on his physical

conditions some extra work which has depressed his bodily powers, some worry which has preyed on his mind, some loss of sleep, some undue "ex

nousure to atmosphere changes or

some dietary indiscretion. For in- J

u'scitia eaung is one 01 ine most prolific nd yet the least recognlzd. of all the predisposing causes of a cold. The tramp may suffer from frost bite, from pneumonia or from consumption, but unless the farmers wives along his route have been un

usually generous he seldom has a cold

in his head.

More Decorum on Cha nge. (Springfield, Mass., Republican.) The governors of the New York Stock Exchange have issued an order that hereafter there shall be no running on the floor. The new rule does

not please the brokers, who fear that the dearest tradition of the exchange., noise and hurly-burly is threatened. It is protested that further reforms iu this direction will make the exchange

such a "ladylike" affair that it will no

longer be one of the picturesque sights of th great city. ,
