for I nited States senator, traveled
today over the scene of hi young
manhood when as a youthful en
gineer he wa iti charge of an ir
rigation project along the South
Plaitc for an hour, at Ogaljala be
taw sane of those early days re
produced at the Keith county fair,
lu re bucking broncho and steer
riding contests were held.
An extra thrill was afforded when
a cowboy was thrown from the back
of a neer and suffered a cumpond
fracture of bis leg. Reception com
mittees, goods crowds and much un
solicited voluntary- encouragement
greeted him at Sutherland, Ogallala,
bruel, Big Spring, Chappell and
Sidney.
" Talked of Early Day.
Throughout the day Mr. Howell
indulged in reminiscences of the early
days and told of the fight waged
in behalf of state irrigation laws and
installation of the state irrigation
bureau at Lincoln. Mr. Howell also
spoke on numerous national prob
lems and continued to boost other
candidates on the ticket.
A graphic description of six years
spent in pushing through the irriga
tion law was outlined to his audi
ences. It was while he was rancning
it northwest nf Ogallala that Mr
Howell saw the opportunities of ir
rigation and a set of consolidater
codified irrigation laws and a state
irrigation bureau and he immediately
took steps to put the proposition
through!

President Is Cheered I
I By GRAFTON WILCOX. '
1 Oinxlia Or laal Mlro,
Washington, Sept. JJ.--Secretary I
of Labor Davit, upon receipt of a!
I message from Chicago today that a '
j I aia for urttlcuic nt of the railway
trike had been agreed upon, declar
ed that thi would mean the removal
of the last obstacle in the way of
the greatest economic revival the j
country ever lias known.
The erretary was quick to com
municate the news to President
Harding at the White House. The
chief executive is reported to have
been greatly cheered thereby belicv
, nig that, at last, after many post
war vicissitudes, the march of the
'country back to "normalcy" can be
'resumed with quickened tread.
! Cabinet I Relieved,
j Thr whole economic machinery of
the country, it was declared by the
.Secretary, has been waiting to
jJungc ahead as soon as the indus
! trial strife in the coal mines and
on the railroads could be cleared
: up. With the coal strikes over, and J
coal production rushing toward nor- ,

eliminated, and thr prospect of trail-
sportatiou right in itself again speed-j
i!y. not only Secretary Davis, but the
president's other cabinet adviser are i
i reathing huge sighs of relief not j
only for the economic revival that
is expected, but because of the bene
ficial effect thev believe it will have
on the forthcoming congressional
election.
"American industry has overcome
the last obstacle in the way of the
greatest economic revival the nation
ha sever known, said Secretary ,
Davis to newspaper correspondents j
after he was convinced that the Chi
cago negotiations had reached a point
where settlement of the railway shop
strike was practically assured.
Forward Move Assured.
"With the settlement of the trike
of 4tM),(KJ0 railroad shop craftsmen as-
sured," he added, "the whole indus
trial machinery of the country is
ready for a forward movement un
precedented in our economic history.
The disturbances in the bituminous
and anthracite coal mining industries
are in the past, and the (i(H3,0(H) coal
miners of the country are back at
work.
"Our representatives ill New Eng
land have advised me today that in
the textile workers strife settlements
are rapidly enabling the mills to re
sume operations. These three great
industrial disputes have been the only
hindrances to the nation in its rapid
recovery from the industrial depres
sion which we faced a year ago. With
them out of the way progress toward
prosperity will be swift and sure.
"Today there are fewer strikes in
America than there hare been in
years. The commissioners of concili
ation of the department of lab6r arc
using their goo dofticers in only 34
pending industrial disputes involving
some 30,(100 men. Of these cases
strikes have beeit withheld in 13 pend
ing our mediatory efforts.

Old Settler and
Founder of Omaha
Y.M.C. A., Expires
Robert Weidensall, 87, Who
Caine to Omaha in 1868
as
Y" Worker, Dies
at Yutan, Neb.
Robert Weidensall, 87, founder of
the Y. M. C. A. i;i Omaha and first
traveling secretary for that organiza
tion, died yesterday at his home in
Yutan, Neb., a half hour after Rich
ard C. Morse of New York, for years
his traveling partner, arrived in Oma -
ha to see him.
As Mr. Morse was leaving the Y.
M. C. A. to motor to the Weidensall
home, word was received of the aged
man's death. Infirmities, due to old
age, caused death.
Mr. YYciuensaii was a pioneer in
Y. M. C. A. work among railroad
men, college students and rural com
munities in the west. He was born
in Hollidaysbtirg, Pa., and came to
Omaha in 1868, as a machinist in the
LTnion Pacific shops. Interested in
religious work, Mr. Weidensall went
out along the Union Pacific the same
year as a traveling secretary for the
Y. M. C. A., preaching and doing
corporal work among railroad men.
He was one of the first advocates of
professional training for Y. M. C. A.
secretaries. Today there are approx
imately 5.50O trained secretaries in
the organization.
Mr Weidiisall never married.
v
He had been active member in the
M. C. A. until just a few veara
, ,
when he wa retired to make
his home with a great-nephew, Wi!-j
bum Weidensall, near Yutan. Mr,
M.iry Kobling of Oinaha is a niece.

! Chicago, Sept, 13. Railway strike
peace lias been virtually dnlarrd on
j a proximately one-fourth of the
' country's 201 class I road.
1 'I his announcement was made late
today by the railroad shopcrafts gen
eral conference committee of W,
which, mnvening at the Masonic
temple Monday morning, lid been
considering a separate settlement
plan drawn up at secret conferences
held in Baltimore It) day ago.
'Ihe strike presumably will con
tinue on other lines.
Not Formally Signed.
The agreement, which is yet to be
formally signed by representatives of
the carriers which have indicated
willingness to become parties to it,
makes no specific reference to seni
ority rights, but expressly stipulates
that the shopmen shall return to
work at the wages against which
they struck July 1, "not later than
30 days after the signing of this
agreement."
Announcement of the big step to
ward ending the strike, was hailed
with satisfaction, not only by repre
senativts of the railways involved,
but by heads of Industries whose we!,
fare has been seriously imperiled.
"We are looking for a tremendous
business and will be able to take care
of it." said W. H. Finlejv president
of the Chicago Northwestern rail
way, in a statement issued tonight.
The Northweseem is in on the sep
aratc settlement plan.
While it seemed certain that about
SO roads, if the subsidiaries be count
ed, would make peace with the shop
men, representatives of the so-called
"hard boiled" railway's, which havt
not yielded on the question of seni
ority rights, were prompt in reaffirm
ing their position,
Burlington Not Involved.
"We are not involved," said Ha
Holden, president of the Burlington.
"We are going ahead with practically
full forces."
Efforts to reach V. YV. Atterbury.
vice president in charge of opera
tions of the Pennsylvania system,
were unavailing, but at his office it
was said the Pennsylvania was not
concerned in the negotiations.
One provision of the settlement
terms about to be consummated was
construed in some quarters as di
rected at the existence of the United
Slates railroad labor board, against
whose decisions on wages and work
ing conditions the 3lH),000 shopmen
declared the strike that has threat
ened to cripple the transportation
facilities of the nation.
Plan New Commission.
Under the agreement, all future
disputes are to be referred to a com
mission composed of six representa
tives of the men and six for the car-r
riers. This commission is in h
