Bad Wood existing between O.-W.
strikers and .strikebreakers in the lo
cal railroad shops cropped out again
last night at Depot and Jefferson
j when a wrangling crowd gathered and
; obstructing 'thV sidewalk, created a
! disturbance. Without regard for who
was responsible Officer McLachlen nr-
i dered the 'men to move on and all but
one or two did so. A passing strike
breaker was Indirectly .responsible for
fanning the flame again for a strik
er let out a cry of "scab", which
brought the police to him. . No ar
rests were made but Officer McLach
len and Officer Brady made it clear
that regardless of who was response
ble, the disturbances '. on - the street
would have to end." .lVl v.' r
The' trouble' took a tangat shortly
afterward when a young man, neith
er a striker nor a strikebreaker was
the object of contention. Nothing sn.
lous resulted however, and the trouble
was finally passed over but In the
meantime . It was neither safe nor
pleasant for women to go to the depot
or return to town. -

Dodging Mother Meng.
Infant prodigies are not unknown In
China, and Chinese Bmldhlsts find It
easy to accouut for them, says a cor.
respondent of the London Chronicle.
According to the" doctrine of the trans
migration of souls, persons passing
through hades on their way to the
wheel of life (which relaunches souls
Into the bodies of babies or animals
Just being born) have to erosa a bridge.
Before mounting the bridge they are
stopped by . an old hag called Meng,
who, ladle lu band, compels each soul
to drink .a mouthful of the waters of
forgetfuluess. for which the popular
name is Mother Meng's soup. Those
who drink of this forget all that they
hod passed through or hnd known In
their former life aud thus on being
reborn Into the world are entirely In-
norant Sonic, however, manage to '
dodge Mother Meng and enter the I
world full of knowledge, which they J
display as soon as they can articulate.

coterie of celebriies lend their pnes
ence to the project., adds a distinction
that would not otherwise obtain, and
assures for the tour the greatest
amount of publicity.
The fact that the gubernatorial par
ty will be Joined from time to time by
the governors of the state, in which
the special train happens to be Jour
neying at the moment, senators, con
gressmen, correspondents of various
newspaperg and others adds to the
value of the plan from a publicity
standpoint.
After visiting 21 eastern cities, the
special will return to St. Raul, Minn ,
with ts party augmented by the addi
tion of the senators and members of
congress of the varloug northwestern
states, where a conference lasting for
three davs will be held, to devise uni
formity of action by the northwestern
states and their immigration depart
ments. In the matter of offsetting Can
adian immigration. t. :
- That the United State8 government
Itself is cognizant of the efforts being
made in this matter, and desires to
assist, seems assured from the fact
that no less a personage than Presi
dent Taft has added his semi-official
endorsement to the tour of the gover
nors by formally inviting the party
io vioii iiuu wniie en tour.
With the sole exception of Gover
nor Hiram W. Johnson, of California,
who. It Is said, has called a special
session of th legislature which will
be In session at the time of the tour,
each one of the chief executives of ths
ten states participating, will be on
the special when It leaves St. Paul, on
the evening of Nov. 27, on its mem
orable tour. Whether the hopes of Its
promoters and tti good wishes of the
western people will bear fruit, must
be left to the n.ear future, when a
comparison of the immigration sta
tistics will show; whether the .hordes
of homeseekerg will have been per
suaded to develop their own country,
or an alien one, t . -

While this method of displaying the
resources ' of the west, is, In itself,
new, the unique feature of the tour
will be the fact that the governors of
the various states will accompany the
exhibits as the official representatives
of the states. It Is said that the pres
ent is the first time In the history of t
the United States, that a congress of
chkf executives have banded for any
similar purpose. I
' The remarkable finesse of the move-:

seen In the presence of" the governor '
