WILSON WEIGHS SUSSEX ACTION

WASHINGTON. March 28. President Wilson today considered the evidence so far gathered by the state department dealing with the attacks upon the channel liner Sussex and the steamer Englishman. Up to the present this evidence is far from conclusive s showing whether the vessel hit mines or were torpedoes without warning. , ' The president himself must decide what action the United States can take under the circumstances. Certain of his adviser have taken the. position that while direct .proof is lacking, there can be no reasonable doubt that a German submarine was responsible and that definite action to hold Germany responsible will be taken. Others, and among them is Secretary Lansing, counsel delay until further facts can be ascertained, believing that legal proof eventually will be gathered. GROWS BIG TURNIP MILTON. March 28 Clyde Leverton, a young farmer, five miles east of town, has placed a very large turnip that was grown in his patch, on exhibit at the Farmers' bank. It weighs 3 pounds and measures 24 Inches in circumference and is 8 inches deep. In shape it resembles a top. WHAT CAESAR DID FOR GOOD ROADS . The following poem in the interest of good roads has been submitted by Ralph Whlsler: What Old Caesar Did. "When Caesar took a westward ride And grabbed the Gauls for Rome, What was the first thing that he did To make them feel at home? Did he increase the people's loads And liberty forbid? No. be dug in and built Good Roads That's what old Caesar did. Did Cae6ar put the iron heel Upon the foeman's breast? Or did he try to lrtake them feel That Roman rule was bfst? What did he do to make them glad He'd come their midst amid? Hp built Good Roads in place of bad Thai's what Caesar did. f He built Good Roads from hill to hill, Good Roads from vale to vale; , He ran a Good Roads movement Till old Rome got all the kale. Hp told the folk to buy at home, nuilt roads their hills amid Until oil roads led to Romp That's what old Caesar did.

0-HOUR iBAY

The transportation Brotherhood's Publicity Bureau, advocating an eight hour day for railway train service employes, has submitted the following: A statement haB been frequently made by the railroads that the present demands of the railway train service employes. arjB" not really for an eighthour day, but are intended to secure Increased wages. ' This is not true, as the employes composing the four brotherhoods want shorter hours. They want their working day to be as near eight hours as it can be made. ' " ; '" To any reasonable person it will be apparent that it will be useless to secure an eight-hour day unless there is some penalty attached for over-time. In all the trades where the eight-hour day obtains, there is an extra charge for overtime; otherwise, there would be no eight-hour day, the work would go on at the same rate per hour just as long as the employer cared- to work the men.;,; . - It has been amply demonstrated that eight hours' hard work is enough for any man and any hours he works more than eight, simply draw on his reserve energy and vitality, shortening his life and his available working years. It has also been proven that a man working eight hours is more efficient, does better work, and is in every way a better citizen than a man working longer hours. The railroad train service employes, in asking the railroad companies for an eight hour day, also ask for tlme-and-one-half for overtime, but this extra rate is merely a "penalty" upon the railways and is considered an effective method for preventing overtime. "Overtime" is commonly called "blood money," and saps the very life out of the employes. We trust that the public will consider the fact that it is the "overtime" and exposure that is "wearing out" the employes and prompts many employers to set their employes' age limit at 21 to 35. In other vocations a man can work at least. 30 years note the difference in BROTHERHOOD KILLS SICK BENEFIT PLAN The brotherhood of the St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran church at its regular session last night decided not to adopt the weekly sick benefit feature of the benevolent society for the present. The president of the organization W. H. 'Meerhoff, however will appoint a committee to better the membership. of the original society. After the routine business had been transacted last night an interesting paper, entitled "Luther at Wartburg" was presented by Chris Bailey. While Luther was at the Palace he translated the Bible from the Greek language to the German. About thirty members were present nt the session.

railway work. Considered in this way the railway employes could, in exact Justice, ask for twice their present rate of pay, but the employes are not seeking the "enormous increase," but desire better, living conditions. . The physical and mental strain on train service employes, compelled to work long hours; is beyond compre hension by the average mind. Virtual ly all the accident and old-line insurance companies classify railroading as extra hazardous, many of them refus ing to insure railway employes on ac count of the great risk of loss, and where these employes are injured, there is a definite limit set on the amount of the risk, and an extra charge is made to the insured. In reality, the railway employe receives a less hourly rate of compensation "than almost any other trade. A hod-carrier receives $4.50 for eight hours or about 56 cents an hour.' The highest paid train conductor receives 55 cents an hour. If the hod-carrier worked as many hours as the railway conductor he would draw a larger sal ary and could then be named by the railways as the "aristocrat of the labor world." If the railways complain that "time and-a-half" means in some instances an increase, let them avoid the in crease by avoiding the overtime, for that js the desire and purpose of the employes. The railways claim there was an in crease in wages to the men, of between 30 and 42 percent from 1903 to 1914. This is partly true, but the price of living and the additional work required of the employes has more than offset it. Also, the said wage in crease came mostly to the employes having regular assignments and estab lished hours for service, but the very great, majority of the employes, who work in the irregular freight service and are allowed to work the day if sufficient freight shipments come to hand, but who lose the day's work if the business does not come these "irregular freight service" employes gainSTATE TO ASK Continued From Page One marshal to assist in raiding Elvord's place the second time and found the bottles of whiskey.

ed almost nothing, but were crowded back to an hourly compensation, instead of mileage basis, by excessively, long trains; or. in other words, the railways, to recover the 1903 to 1914 wage increase, gave each of their irregular freight crews two" trains to handle instead of .one, and this not only deprived other crews of a train and their day's work, but kept the "double train" dragging along the railway until it has, in many places, become the practice of the railways to work the employe the 16 hours and merely allow them the eight - hours' rest, anywhere, and then continue on with this "freight drag" as it is called by both officials and employes.

The bandits who crossed the border at Fabens are unquestionably Villistas. It is in this district that supplies have been smuggled into Mexico to help "Pancho." While the hunt for the Fabens bandits was in progress - it became known here that' representatives of the border states would press at Washington for congressional action to impress General Carranza with the fact that his government must co-operate actively with the Americans in their pursuit of Villa. Friends of Senator A. B.
