NO SLEEPING HOUR
RULE TO BE MADE
Industrial Board Refuses to
Grant Petition of the Inde
pendent Telephone Men
'"V
' The State Industrial Board has de
clined to grant a petition from the
Eastern and Western Independent
Telephone Associations asking that
hours of women operators between
11.30 o'clock at night and 5.30 o'clock
in the morning he known as "sleeping
hours" in exchanges where not more
than six calls are made in that period.
The associations stated in their peti
tion that comfortable sleeping- quar
ters would be provided women oper
ators in the telephone exchanges
where continuous service is furnished
but where the average number of calls
between the hours designated does not
exceed six. Thty requested that such
"sleeping hours" should not be con
sidered a part of the hours of labor.
The petition further stated that in no
event shall female telephone opera
tors be employed or permitted to work
in or at a telephone exchange for more
than fifty-four hours in any one week.
In refusing to grant the petition the
Industrial Board declared:
"A change in these particulars in
the interpretation of the Woman's La
bor act, is not of general necessity to
the telephone companies of the State
employing operators in similar night
work and performing similar service to
the community.
"The Woman's Labor act was en
acted for the benefit of women in in
dustry. therefore, any change in its in
terpretation must be clearly shown
to be at least no detriment to the wo
men affected.
"An inquiry among the telephone
operators affected, would indicate that
the change as requested would be, as
far as now can be ascertained, to their
detriment."

FOR REPUBLICANS

rendered a concert, At Penbrook an
open-air meeting was held at which
Dr. A. Lincoln Shope presided. The
third meeting was at Horstick's store,
just outside the city limits on State
street, and Dr. W. H. Painter intro
duced the speakers.
All of the candidates made good
speeches, but possibly the most im
pressive was that of Michael E. Stroup,
candidate for re-election as district
attorney, who made a complete refu
tation of the charges of his opponent
that he had been counted out when he
lan for that office against Stroup four
years ago.
Mr. Stroup repeated that his oppo
nent. in making the charges he does,
reflects on the courts of the county
and not on him. He drew attention to
the fact that Mr. Kunkel was repre
sented at the recount by his own coun
sel and that his own lawyers were
satisfied that ths count was fair and
that Kunkel was beaten.
Charles C. Cumbler, of Highspire,
candidate for county commissioner,
■was the only one of the nominees who
was unable to attend the meetings.
H At Penbrook Mark Mumma, candi
date for county treasurer, spoke early
in the meeting and thanked the voters
for their splendid support and show
ing at the primaries. Other speakers
were William W. Caldwell, candidate
for sheriff; F. B. Snavely and Fer
nando Laudermilch, candidates for di
rectors of the poor; Henry W. Gough,
county controller, and James E. Lentz,
candidate for recorder of deeds. At
the Penbrook primaries the candidates
on the Democratic ticket for the first
time in years failed to get a single
vote, though twelve had registered on
this ticket. All of the local and county
candidates on the Republican ticket
were given heavy votes.
Upper End Voters to
Hear Republicans at
Two Great Rallies
The Republican candidates, led by
James E. Lentz. nominee for recorder,
and Michael E. Stroup, for district
attorney, arc being piloted about the
upper end of the county to-day. meet

the "every-fellow-for-hlmself" policy
of the Democrats, they are traveling
in a body and making votes for the
whole ticket.
To-night there will be a big mass

home town, and another at Berrvs

In the above etching is shown the oldest dwelling-house in West Fair
view. Built more than a century ago, this old landmark has been occupied
ever since. It is now owned by H. R. May.
The insert is from a photograph of Frederick Kilheffer, 90 years old,
the oldest resident of the borough. Since he was hut three years of age he
has lived continuously in West Fairview.

will endeavor to raise the money
which Is yet needed to complete the
payment for the building. The fire
company had quite a good sized sum
In its treasury when the building was
started and now efforts will be made
to clear the indebtedness.
Big Parade Friday
Friday afternoon will probably see
the biggest time of the celebration.
The big parade of firemen, secret or
ganizations. school children and floats
of business houses will attract hun
| dreds of visitors here and arrange
i nients are being made to accommodate
I the crowds.
To add to the ,-uccess of the amuse
| rr.ent end of the celebration the com
mittees in charge have engaged a car
nival company for the three days and
I shows will be given every afternoon
and evening. The borough has granted
the fire company the use of two streets
and on these the carnival company
will hold forth. Each evening, too,
there will be a band concert, at the
firehouse. so it is readily seen that
there will be something doing every
minute in this old town.
House Over 100 Years Old
Residents of the town are already
1 beginning to plan decorations for their
, homes and business places and a num
ber of the older places in the' borough
will be given special markings. Among
the old houses none will be of more
interest than the home of H. R. May.
This house, although presenting at.
present a modern appearance, is built
of hewn logs. During recent years
the structure was given a covering of
weather boarding.
The May house is the oldest in West
Fairview. Tt was the original farm
house on the'Womelsdorf farm, which
West Fairview now covers, and the
farm was sold just 100 years ago to
Abraham Neidig-, Sr.. who laid it out
In building lots. That marked the
beginning of West Fairview and the
old house has stood until the present.
Only in recent years was the house re
modeled, but its lines at present are
much as they were more than 100
years ago.
Saturday will bring the celebration
to a close and in the evening there
will be a parade in which every per
son will be asked to participate. In
connection with this, too. there will be
a mummers' parade, and the Dark
town Fire Brigade will take a promi

Gives Notice of Holdup
A discharged United States soldier
appeared at Olmito shortly after mid
night and reported the train had been
fired upon and that the engineer and
several other persons had been killed.
The sheriff and a posse started in au
tomobiles and a special train, carrying
two companies of infantry, started for
the scene. A troop of cavalry left
shortly afterwards and was followed
by an automobile truck carrying a de
tachment of infantry.
The first definite information re
ceived at Fort Brown said that a band
of seventy or eighty Mexicans pulled
out a rail from the track and the en
gine and baggage car went into the
ditch. Mexicans then swarined on the
train, it was reported, and looted it.
A long trestle half a mile south of
the wreck was set on fire after the
train had been held up and nearly
destroyed. This hindered the progress
of the troops so that the bandits had
time to flee into the brush.
Passengers who reached here on a
relief train early to-day said that the
train was derailed and brought to a
stop, that the Mexicans poured into
the coaches schouting, "viva Pizano!"
and commenced shooting at passen
gers.
The Dead and Injured
The train, a southbound passenger
train on the St. Louis, Brownsville
and Mexico railroad, was wrecked be

fort will be bent toward accomplishing
that record. Donald McCormick of the
Dauphin Deposit Trust company will
handle the distribution of the seals
again and County Controller H. W.
Gough wil serve as treasurer of the
committee as last year. John Yates,
general secretary of the Associated Aid
societies will be secretary. Practically
the same line of campaign that proved
so successful in 1914 will lie followed

Insure Easier Method
of Reaching Summit St.
Definite steps to insure an easier
method, of reaching South Summit
street from the level of-Market street
were taken this afternoon by City
Council when Commissioner Harry
F. Bowman offered an ordinance au
thorizing the grading of the Summit
street roadway from Chestnut to Mt.
Pleasant streets. This means that
after the street is graded sufficiently to
permit vehicular travel between Mt.
Pleasant and Chestnut streets, a? flight
of eight or ten concrete steps will be
constructed between the Market street
level of Summit street to the upper
level along the bluff.
An ordinance was offered by Com
missioner Lynch authorizing the cut
ting of ten feet from the fifty-foot
width to forty feet in order to allow
five more feet on each side of the
street for grass plcts in Bellevue road
from Twenty-first to Pentwater
streets. Commissioner Lynch also
presented an ordinance providing for
the vacation of Brown street from

engineer to proceed.
The second freight train was held
up and robbed in a similar manner.
When the American Express train
stopped at the red signal the rob
bers neglected to station a man at
the locomotive and all of them went
back apparently with the intention of
breaking into one of the cars. As
soon as they were out of sight the
engineer opened the throttle and start
ed up the train.
The looted trains were stopped at
West Haverstraw, the next station
north from the scene of the holdup,
and the crews gave the first news of
the robbery. An electrician who was
sent from Congers to repair the dam
ages to the wires discovered the
bandits opening the packages. He
was awed by a display of revolvers.
Sheriff Serven of Rockland county

controversy. While the Huselton opin
ion did not bear directly on the method
of determining the councilinanic situ
ation Col. Ott drew his inference from
the court's opinion on a similar ques
tion.
Ever since the primaries of Septem
ber 21 friends of Messrs. Bowman and
Gorgas have contended that the y
were chosen as councilmen and that
unless they were defeated by "sticker"
candidates at the general election, they
could not be defeated. This was in
accordance, it was contended, with
the fifty' per cent clause of the 1915
supplement to the 1913 act which pro
vided that if a candidate received
more than half of the number of bal
lots cast for the office he was to have
a place at the top of the "group."
Furthermore it was contended the
candidate who had received the fifty
per cent, was elected unless he were
defeated by someone at the general
election who used "stickers." Accord
ingly Col. Ott had advised the county
commissioners to print Ihe names of
Gorgas and Bowman at the top of the
list with the other six arranged al
phabetically.

declared that neither Mr. Gorgas nor
himself should be considered as al

superintendent of finance and accounts
intimated late this afternoon that he
may ask the courts to determine the
fifty per cent, clause of the nonpartisan
election act with reference to the
councilmanic candidates alone. Mr.
Gorgas said he couldn't say definitely
what he will do until he learned how
the county commissioners meant to
print the city ticket. "I think the
matter, if settled in the courts, would
obviate any future trouble," said he.
Commissioner Bowman said he is
content to let the commissioners print
the names of candidates alphabetically
on an equal footing.
OIL OX THE CARIBBEAN
The nation which controls the oil
supply possesses one of the great fac
tors upon which ocean-borne com
merce will depend, and about which
naval politics will turn.
The public has not realized the
steps already taken by the great naval
powers to prepare for the shift, to oil
as a fuel for their battleships. All
the battleships of the American Navy
built in the last eight years.use oil
for fuel, eight use It as auxiliary to
coal, four use It exclusively. The
dreadnaughts Oklahoma and Nevada
use oil exclusively; and forty-one of
our destroyers, built or building, use
oil fuel only. Storage facilities are be
ing proportionately Increased. Oiling
stations are replacing coaling sta
tions. In 1912, steps were taken for
the construction of fuel oil tanks at
Pearl Harbor, Hawaii; Melv.*le, Rhode
Island; Norfolk, Virginia; Charleston,
South Carolina; and Key West, Flor
ida. Five tanks are under construc
tion at Guantanamo, Cuba. The
combined capacity of all these is 3,-
890,000 gallons. During the year 1912,
the navy used 14,140,714 gallons, as
compared with 7,778,657 gallons in
the previous year. Our present oil
burning fleet would require 23,000
tons of fuel oil to keep it in active
service for a single month.
But more significant is the recently
announced intention of the British
Admiralty that all British warships to
be built from now on will use oil for
fuel exclusively. This action is one
which will almost certainly be fol
lowed by other naval powers.
The Government of the United
States will assuredly not be slow to
see the Importance of the oil supplies
in the neighboring republics as an In
fluence bearing upon its own foreign
policy. Our interests in this matter
have thus far been brought into con
trast only with those of one other
power, but the general policy which
we may adopt will have a much wider
application. So far as a supply for
our own governmental needs is con
cerned, no question is apt to rise; but
the degree to which other nations
may get de facto control of Caribbean
oil resources may be, for us, a matter
of great moment, causing this govern
ment to consider again the interpreta
tion which is to be placed on the Mon
roe Doctrine.—Chester Floyd Jones,
in the North American Review.
