FACTS "Mothor, what do you think of thls7" said SI Hawkins as bo glanced up from n closo reading of tho latest consus roport (ono of tho hundreds sent to him by his rcprooontnttvo In congress). "According to theso fig urcs, wo farmors havo droppod to socotid placo ns omployora of labor. "In 1010 thero wore 0,340,357 farms In tho United States, valuod, with tholr Improvements, at $34, 081,607,000, and during tho samo j oar tho farmers paid out In wages $046,012,000. That reads woll, but In this roport from tho Interstate commorco commission I find that In tho samo year tho railroads of tho United Statos paid for labor tho enor mous sum of $1,143,726,306, nearly doublo what tho farmem paid for tholr labor In tho samo year. "My opinion lias been, when rail road officials said that thoy wuro tho grcatost employers of labor, and tbnt thoroforo, Injury to tho rail Toads was bound to effect business In terests of tho whole country, that thoy woro talking for effect. Ilut with thoso flgurcti boforo mo, prov ing boyond doubt that with an army of 1,000,420 omploycA and a payroll nearly twlco that of all of tho fann ers In tho country. I am forced to altor that opinion consldorable." "Land sakes!" oxclalmed Mrs. Hawkins, bringing her mathemati cal, talontB quickly Into piny, "thoso tallroad follows got an avorago of noarly $700 a year; no wonder they can wonr bluo sultn'and braos but tons. Why, that Is about three times as much as wo pay our hlrod man, John, and ho works 13 hours every day of tho yoar, oxcopt on Fourth of July and Circus Day. Maybe If tho railroads mndo their men work like tho farmors do, tho fnrmors would not havo to take second placo as tho groatost employers of labor." "Yos, and I hco In tho papers," said SI, as ho bont closor to tho con sus roport, "tint soma of theso rail road chaps running trains only work ono-thlrd or two-thirds of tho time." Strange and Romantic Stories Involved Coos Bay Connection. Tho KImmolI myatory caso at St. Louis which attracted moro or less Interest on tho Hay on nccount of ono of tho strong ploces of ovldonco In It alleging that tho missing banker was slain near Empire Is still In contro versy dcsplto tho verdict of tho Jury. Yostordny's Associated Press dis patches to Tlio Times told of tho lat est movo of tho mnn who claimed ho was Klmtnoll and whoso clnlm Is re futed by Klmmoll's mothor nnd sis tors and othors.

Concerning tho caso, Tho Censor, published nt 003 Fullorton building, St. Louis, Mo., March 7, printed tho following: After six years of litigation, which Is roally not long ns tho stnndnrd runs In our Judicial systom, a Jury iiiiuny ucciues mat tne ox-convlct who cnlls hlmsolf KImmolI Ib not Klmmoll.
