buildings in the county which do not
have flags. These will be supplied in

A. R. and W. R. C. will certainly bo

commended. The good that these two

Engineers Refused Increase.
A New York dispatch dated yester
day said: Fifty railroads comprising
practically all the lines east of Chicago
and north of the Norfolk & Western,
today refused to grant an increase in
wages demanded by their locomotive
engineers.
The engineers' demand, presented on
January 22, was for an increase amount
ing to about 19 per cent a year. The
railroads' refusal is based on tho asser
tion that they arc financially unable to
bear the increased expense.
Tho railroads in their reply pointed
out that the nronosed increase will
amount to $7,553,782 annually, which
would bo equivlent to placing on their
property a lien of $188,844,818 of 4 per
cent securities which would have pref
erence over first mortgage bonus, "and
to just that extent would lessea thq
ability of the roads to make the im
provements necessary to increase the
efficiency of their service and insure
greater safety to tho public and employes."

Tho voters of our city aro looking

How many of you feel tho responsibility
resting upon your votes? We may look
for a moment at the saloon. Think of
its drain of life, its financial drain.
Last year, $1,300,000,000 were spent
for necessaries of life, such as public
education, woolen goods, boots, shoos
and bread, but, the liquor bill was $1,
400,000,000. Can it really bo possible
for you, tho voters of our city, to think
of this with any peace of mind? It
should arouso all our righteous indigna
tion. What a drain upon tho financial
resources of tho world I the poor aro
tho chief BufTerors. Then think of the
physical drain. Just ono sontenco
will give you food for thought: One
father out of every five in our land
furnishes a son for a drunkard's
grave. Oh fathorsl bo cateful how
you vote. L. W.
