"after "the final count, thereby being
exposed to fraudulent practices. The

Factories Are Offering Higher Wages
and Bidding For Workmen.
New York City. If there has been
one lesson more than another Im
pressed upon the industrial world in
these prosperous years, it has been
the remarkable increase in the recent
demand for skilled labor. One hard
ly appreciates, unless he goes much,
or watches conditions, over the
length and breadth of the land, how
unequal to the real demand are the
present supply and the means Intend
ed to increase it, The mills in Rhode
Island are suffering from a labor
famine that has been intensifying for
the past six months. It is not only
the increase of production in old
mills but the building of new ones
at and about Pawtucket that has
caused the trouble in Rhode Island
of which complaint is made. The
putting in of mills in a single season
calling for 1800 more operatives nat
urally uses up the labor supply of
places of the size of Pawtucket and
draws upon the available surplus that
may exist in near-by manufacturing
centres. Now that waiting lists of
skilled laborers have become a mem
ory, it becomes a question of who
shall bid highest for the available la

liig Sensation Promised. in Conimis
sioner Prouty's Report on -Union
Pacific Deals.
Tomato Experiment a Fine ' Success.
Farmers of New Jerseyrhave netted
thousands of dollars, from tomatoes
this year. This is the first season
they have attempted to grow them
for city markets.
Washington, D. C. Something dis
tinctly fout of the ordinary is expect
ed when Interstate Commerce Com
missioner Prouty produces his report
on the great land frauds along the
Union Pacific road, which he has re
cently investigated. ' It is strongly
intimated that he will prepare a re
port which will have to be written on
asbestos, and that he will give a com
plete outline of the whole scheme of
land frauds that has been for many
years inextricably tangled with the
processes of milling and transporting
coal in Wyoming, Colorado and Utah.
Sensational as they have been, the
revelations about affairs in Union Pa
cific territory are said to have only
scratched the surface. Other; big
railroad and industrial companies are
said to present opportunities for just
as remarkable developments, involv
ing the looting of the most valuable
parts of the .public domain. . The'
Denver and Rio Grande in particular,
according to report, Is likely to comt
in for some searching inquiry that
will prove disappointing if it falls to
uncover a situation as bad, or worse,
than that in the Union Pacific's
sphere of influence. The Santa Fe
and the Colorado Fuel and Iron Com
pany are also named as, concerns
whose relations to Uncle Sams lands
will not bear thorough Investigation.
All these, it is said, are about as
deep in the muck as Union Pacific is
in the mire.
These phases of the situation are
understood to be slated for attention'
later in connection with the Inter
state Commerce Commission's series
of investigations under the Tillman
Gillespie resolution. Largely as a
result of these revelations the Presi
dent has issued an order withdraw
ing coal lands of the public domain
frdm entry. But it is pointed out
that much more, drastic measures
than this are necessary. To set aside
the patents, fraudulently obtained,
for millions of acres of mineral tim
ber lands Is one of the duties requir
ing attention.
Every alternate section for, twenty
miles on either side of the Union Pa
cific belongs to that system's land
grant. This is as if the black square
on a checkerboard belonged to the
road and the red to the Government
subject to entry. There are almost
no country roads through this region,
and the railroad company, bein? ex
tremely unfriendly to private devel
opment of mineral resources, easily
finds ways to prevent anybody else
setting access to the lands it does not
own. To get to them it is necessary
to trespass on the railroad lands, and
that sort of thing is promptly visited
with the heavy displeasure of the cor
poration.
A deal of criticism has been aimed
in this connection against the De
partment of the Interior for its fail
ure to protect the public domain.
The department has various agents
through the public land county, but
they accomplish little, and the suc
cess of Commissioner Prouty on his
recent Investigation was a revelation
to some of them. They are largely
amenable to local political influences
for their appointment, and these po
litical influences are declared to trace
fairly up to the management of the
railroad. D. O. Clark, president of
the Union Pacific Coal Company, is a
brother of Senator C. D. Clark, Sena
tor from Wyoming since ,1895, and
elected to serre until 1911. Commis
sioner Richards, of the General Land
Office, Is a former Governor of Wyom
ing. . ,. : :
Cyrus Beard, a Judge of the Su
preme Court of Wyoming, on the
stand testified to using $3000 , of
money provided for him by the rail
road company in entering Elands
which he afterward relinquished to
the railroad interests, getting $200
for his trouble. Others didn't get so
much; bartenders and gamblers "got
as low as $3 and $5 for the use of
their names in entering property
which they afterward turned over to.
these coal companies. . By these
methods the law's provision that a
company or association may not se
cure more than four quarter-sections
has been nullified.

Denver, Col. -That "a dozen chil

of Light" by the Denver authorities
have starved to death is thedirect
charge of the State Humane Society. '
The Brotherhood of Light colony
is located on a ranch 400 miles
southwest of Denver, and is in charge

solicitors over the State to ; gather
funds to support the orphans, which
it makes a specialty of boarding. Of
twenty children in the custody of the

The older of the furvivors are in the

It is charged by Secretary E. K.

Child and Animal Protection; H. B.
Kerr: agent of the bureau, and rr
M. H. Sears, of the State Bureau of
Health, that all the children who
have died at the colonv have starved
