It is unfortunate for the rallroad--th- at these startling figures have so unceremoniously been dragged out into the rude glare of publicity by the discourteous government officials. In the good old days, as soon as the railroads discovered how much money they were making, they would immediately have given vent to a loud lament that their losses were frightful, cut large melons of watered stork, raised passenger and freight rates and carried through their little game most successfully. It is, indeed, highly unfortunate that the times have changed unfortunate for the railroads, but very forttmate for the common people, as they need a few figures and facts to open their eyes. , Instructor Kldredge has so far by taught twenty bluebirds to fly and turning in eight new motormen twelve conductors.

Mr. A. A. Jensen: I take this means to settle a little argument between Would myself and an acquaintance.to find out you please do me the favor what is the difference between the state militia and the national guard?

I sav one is for state duty and the other for federal duty,an such act as border duty; but of late by and militia the both of Congress guardsmen can be used for federal service. Please tiy and find sPace in the Labor News and give the answer. T. Fredrickson, 730 S. Seventh East. There is not and nevr has been any difference between militia and national guard.

There was a young fellow named Hayes, I wish he had altered his ways. When he gobbled the senate He went the full limit. I guess that's the reason he stays. When he gathers his crew What things he will do To the poor devils out west aways. Sure the eight-hou- r law Came under his paw, Hed like you to think iied nothing to say But just wait awhile, Watch the crimp In his smile. Hell be weary, ere many a day.
