ENGINEERS NEEDED Demand Increases So Rapidly that May Sections Find Difliculty Ob- taining Men. Chicago, Ill, Sept. 1.—The de- mand for engineers and technical men of almost every type has increased so { much within the last month tha many sections of the country are ex- periencing difficulty in filling vacan- cles, says the report of the employ- ment department of the American As- soclation of Engineers. Largest activity has been displayed in the building industry with highway and municipal work progressing with added vigor, the report states. The demand for architectural and struc- tural draftsmen and designers with building, or plant experience has far exceeded the supply in almost all sec- tions of the country. “While the. ge al still some irregularity but the main better at this time than they have been for more than two years, there is trend shows improvement supported by prospects of further gain" the re- port continued. “Added reasons for a more hopeful feeling appear in the continued increase in the operation of the iron and steel industry, the dimin- | ishing of unemployment of skilled and unskilled labor and the active pro- gression of bundmg operation.” IRISH TROUBLES CONTINUE | Main Line of Great Southern Railway conditions are is Blown up — Attack Four Courts Building in Dublin Opens. — (By Associated Press)—The main line of the Great Southern railway was blown up Jast night at Hazelhatch, 10 miles from | Dublin by bands of irregulars.

ELECTION “Newberryism” Is Slogan Adopt- ¢d by Campaigners Lansing, Mich,, Sept. 1. (By the As- sociated Press)—Michigan voters will go to the polls September 12 to name party nominces for United States sen- ator, governor, lieutenant governor, members of congress, state legislators and local officers. Overshadowing all | other contests in point of statewide interest is that for the republican nomination for United States senator. There are four candidates in the fleld—Senator Charles E. Townsend, State Senator Herbert F. Baker, Con- gressman Patrick H. Kelley and John G. Emery, formerly national com- mander of the American Leglon. The paramount {ssue in the vigorous cam- paign they are conducting is exces- sive campaign expenditures. With Michigan the horse state of Senator Truman H. Newberry, “Newberryism' has come to be the slogan of the campaign and all other {issues have comparatively been lost sight of. Stands Taken, Baker, Kelley and Emery are bas- ing their campaigns upon a denun- ciation of “Newberryism.” Senator Townsend, in reply, has held stead- fastly to the position that his actions 1 the senate call for no apology. He has declared that he ‘4s as much against excessive expenditures as anyone.” In the Newberry case he admits that ‘“too much money was spent but not that any money was illegally spent.” Former Governor Woodbridge N. Ferris is unopposed for the demo- cratic senatorial nomination. Governor Alex J. Groesbeck is op- posed for republican renomination by Former State Labor Commissioner Richard H. Fletcher and Theodore M. Joslin of Adrian. Both Joslin and Fletcher are asking for votes as a protest against alleged excessive ex- penditures in the conduct of the states business. They also assert that Governor Groesbeck has created an autocracy of which he {s the head, The governor will go before the vot- ers on his record, But Two Opposed. Of the nine congressmen who are running for renomination all but two are opposed. The republican nomin- ation is usually considered equivalent to election, Congressman Earl Mich- ener i opposed by S. E. Crawford of Ypsilanti; J. M. C. Smith by Brewster E. Kles, of Hillsdale; Carl E, Mapes by Alvan M, Brown of Grand Raplds; Louls C. Cramton by James McCaren, of Port Huron Francis O, Lindquist by Bird J. Vincent, of Saginaw, Wil- llam M. Smith of St. Johns, and Wm, M. Lash of Saginaw; James C. Mc- Loughlin by State Senator Albert En- gel; W. Frank James by Martin 8 McDonough of Iron River. John C. Ketcham and Roy O. Woodruft are unopposed for renomination, MANY ATTEND WHIST.

VALUED SLAVE HORE THAN HIS WEALTH Late Thomas Peacock Traded land for Negro Atlanta, Sept, 1,—If Thomas Peacock had clung to a plece of At- lanta real estate that he swapped years ago for Ran Peacock, a negro slave, he would have been worth at least $100,000 before he dled. But he never regretted it, according to his statement, Death now has claimed them both, Mr. Peacock died a few years ago, and “Uncle Ran'" passed away the other day at the age of 83. The property increases in value yearly as Atlanta grows, “but it was the best bargain I ever made,”” was the white man's remark a few years ago when he saw a great office building going up on the lot at Whitehall and Ala- bama streets, one of the most valu- able corners in the city. . Story of Trade, The story behind the trade is that of the affection of the old-time south- erner for the slave boy who was his especial playmate. Seventy years ago before Lewis Peacock died, in ap- portioning out his property he left Ran to his daughter, Mrs. Thomas Connolly. Young Thomas Peacock, a few years later, gave his sister his fourth interest in the Alabama- Whitehall corner for Ran, who, as a likely young negro, was \Wrth around $1,500. Mrs. Connolly’'s son now owns the lot and the Connolly bullding which stands on it. Real estate men say the lot itself is worth $400,000 or more. Peacock said it was the best bar- gain he ever made because when he went away to war he left Ran to take care of Mrs. Peacock and the children and it was Ran who worked the plan- tation near Atlantic and foraged for the wife and children of his master, atter Sherman’s soldiers had burned the city and stripped the country- side of food.
