LABOR BOARD SEEKS
, RAILWAY CHIEFS
Chicago, July 17 (By the Associated
Press).;?Peace negotiations, halted
over the week-end, were resumed by
members of the United States railroad
labor board today in an effort to
bring about an early settlement of the
railway shopmen's strike.
W. H. Finley, president of the
Chicago & Northwestern, and W. G.
Bierd, president of the Chicago &
Alton, were among the railway chiefs
who visited the labor board during
the day for conferences with Ben
Hooper, chairman, while Walter L.
McMemimen, a labor board member,
met several high operating executives.
While none of those present would
make any statement regarding the
subjects discussed, it was intimated
some basis for agreement on the five
demands presented by B. M. Jewell,
leader of the shopmen, to Mr. Hooper
at a conference between the two last
week, was sought as preliminary to
the calling of a new formal hearing of
all parties before the labor board.
The five demands of the shopmen
were announced as the restoration of
all seniority Tights to strikers, immediate
establishment of a national
adjustment board 30 that the men
may obtain quicker action on local
grievances than is possible through
the labor board, the abolition of out m
side contracting by the roads, the restoration
of certain rules and working
auu a return uj ine scoie
. of wages in effect before the cut ordered
by the labor board for July 1,
became effective, simultaneously with
the strike.
An indication of the result of the
negotiations on these issues was seen!
in the statement of R. A. Henning,
general chairman of the federated
ahopcrafts of the Northwest, that
enly the refusal of the Eastern roads
to reinstate striking workers with
their full seniority rights was preventing
a settlement as far as the
roads of the Northwest" were concerned.
Hopes for an early peace also were
based on the attitude of E. F. Grable,
president of the maintenance of way
employees, who arrived in Chicago toprevent
carriers from requiring maintenance
of way men to do strikers'
work. v
While maintenance men were reported
in various sections of the counv
try, mostly New York, as having
joined the strike, Mr. Grable asserted
thi?t such walkouts were entirely
ivnanlVAvi'rnJ oti/1 ma Itrilrn Ar/1 ofc
would be issued, at least until after
a meeting of the grand lodee of his
organization in Detroit Friday. He
will report there the result of the
negotiations with members of the
labor board.
Some additions to the ranks of the
strikers in various sections were alsc
reported among the clerks, freight
handlers, firemen and oilers, but railway
executives declared that the de
fections had been more than made uj
by members of shopmen who returnee
to work on the last day allowed then
on many roads to protect their sen
iority rights.
Meanwhile, strike disturbance!
continued to spread, the forces of fed
eral marshals protectinfi the move
*' ment of the mails and interstati
traffic was increased and more federa
iniunctions against picketing wer<
granted.
At Bloomington, 111., a number o
shots were hred, partly damaging tn
home of a non-union railroad workei
In Iowa, passengers, train and wreck
ing crews were driven away from i
wrecked train by strike sympathizer
in an effort to prevent the clearing o
the tracks.
Chicago, July 18.?After a confei
ence with Mr, Jewell, the strike lead
er, Mr. Grable said he didn't expet
his men would join the strike.

LAST WARNING
TO VOTERSj
Enroll by next Tuesday, the 25th,
or you cannot vote.
A telegram from the state chairman
says a "very light enrollment throughout
the state. Urge necessity for publicity
and effort on part of enrollmertt
committees." This applies to our
county. This is my last warning; the
books must positively close next Tuesday.
You have but six more days
now. We have now done all we know
to get you to qualify to vote in the
primary. You can not do so unless
you enroll by the 25th. If you still
neglect to do so then you can blame
r.o one but yourself when you will not
be allowed to vote.
?jiii uuiiiK is vtriy aimpic. rvu uiav
is required, if you are entitled to voteotherwise,
is to go in person and personally
write your full name, correct
age, occupation and address on th^
book. You do not need a registrator
certificate to enroll and vote in the
primary. But, you do have to properly
enroll. Prior enrollments ?for
the city primary for instance?do
not count in the approaching primary.
Every one must enroll for this primary?that
is, since the books were
open last month.
I am informed that In some few
cases a man enrolls his wife's name.?
That will not do. Each person must
personally enroll. Theq I am told that0n
some few have omitted to write their
age, or address or occupation. That is
not a compliance with the require-. ~
ments, and such omission will not per- 8
mit the party to vote. Any one who1;''
| has thus failed to properly enroll go 1
back to your book and correct the er- e
ror at once, and thus qualify yourself. or
Enrollmen committees, please doors
your best to get all to enroll properly.
The books must close next Tuesday,ge
and within three days thereafter theon
sacretaries must return the books to es
me. See Rule 12 of the Party..

f Infamous Work of I d
f The Boll Weevil *
e
a Various low and mean things have v
s' been attributed to the work of the j
f boll weevil, besides eating up our cot- j
ton. The early spring brought a t
scare about the boll weevils eating ^
.. blackberries and figs and many peo- j.
|_ pie were afraid to eat the fruit?that
>t passed over, though, and now comes a
tale that boll weevil is attacking the c
frying size chickens by boring into c
the brain. c
A gentleman living in Union county j.
,f said bis chickens began to droop and t
lS die and upon investigating found that c
jt the boll weevils were boring into the t
brain. Perhaps he was joking; per,f
haps he was not. Who knows what j
Vt the pesky things will do.
U From another section of the county f
fE cornea the statement that a boll weevil
was found in baby's curls. This is y
p the limit and nobody could stand havib
ing baby submitted to such indignities ,
as this, and right now some one must }
find a remedy to exterminate the vil- ,

eminent "in this crisis."
Speaking as chairman of the group
of operators after the White House
conference, Alfred M. Ogle said the
employers would make the attempt
to resume operations.
Meanwhile, the miners' union,
through an adjournment sine die of
its controlling policy committee,
made certain its refusal to accept the
arbitration proposal and many of its
officials immediately left Washington.
The bituminous operators were likewise
not a unit in accepting the gov
eminent arbitration proposals, but
the president said that "a large majority
of them," by unqualified acceptance,
had given him occasion to
"express my own and the public's
gratitude."
There were intimations in official
circles that all the implications of
the decision to ask that the mines be
opened had been fully considered by
the government, and that there was
a possibility that the protection of
troops and the American flag would
be furnished in districts where men
were willing to work, failing sufficient
local safeguarding. Employers
generally held the view that some
j eoal production would result in union
fields in Pennsylvania and Ohio, if
nowhere else, even th .ugh executives
; of the non-union mines south of the
Ohio river reported today that output
was being cut oflf rapidly through
lack of transportation due to the railroad
stiike.
