Tying by misrepresentation, and
false statements, To deprive them of
the credit of what they have done

Rest assured the great majority of

the affairs of the corporation wisely
aud economically administered, no

interest OF the property owners
and tax payers-take 10 part III and

They know just az well as any one
can tell them, whether or not the al

The HagerstOwn Herald and
T0rchlight, in referring to the mat
ter of securing the location in that
lily of the Carver, FoltZ 81 Co.,
mandatory through the enterprise
and active work of a few citizens,
pertinently remarks:

The Herald is right. That is tie

been invested in manufacturing

SCovILLE is no doubt heartily
sick and tired of the Guiteau case
as he processes to be, and it is prof. :
ably true also that whatever is dout
further in the matter will have to bt
done by himself, as no other attorney
will have anything to do with the
case. Even if he should find his
business at Chicago so urgent and
important as to render his abandon
ment of the case absolutely impera-
tive, it would occasion no regret III
the public mind.

INDICATIONS increase that the
war cloud in Europe is being dispell
ed. The Gar is emerging from his
seclusion and mingling more freely
with the outer world. Only a few
days ago he rode from church to the
Palace without his customary guard ,
and now it is announced that he il
about to give banquet, to which
German representatives are to be III
vited. A banquet is a great peace
maker. The rites of hospitality often
remove private wrongs and resent
ments, and those of public nature
conduce to the peace of nations. On
this occasion also there is to be mu-
sic, the first that the Gar has per
mitted since the death of his father
Under its enlivening influence and
the congenial associations of such al
occasion, it is quite probable that
dark clouds will be swept away.

NOTES AND COMM EMIT.

The Wisconsin Legislature de-
fpattd the bill to re establish CAPT.
tai punishment. If they can stand
it the rest of the world can.
The opening article in the At'dn-
tic M9athly is on Europe before the
advent Of man. 1t must have been
perfect Utopia of woman's rights.
A handsome sum has been sub
scrlbpd in the various departments
at Washington, for Mason's family,
and petitions for his pardon are
pouring in from all quarters.
Miss Emmt Key, eldest daughter
TX Postmaster General Key, was
thrown from buggy, by n runaway
horse, Saturday afternoon, at Chat
tanooga, Tenn, falling headlong
down an embaukmrnt of nine feet,
striking sharp rock, and remain
ing unconscious for most of the
time since.
The latest money swindle consists
of cutting twO-thirds from a bill
and then one eight il cut from an
other bill of the Same denomination
and the two pieces are pasted to-
gether, making All apparently genu-
inc bank note. Five two dollar
bills in this way are made to yield
$l2, ard five ten dollar bills make
$50.
The Astors pay taxes in New
York OH $l1 100000 worth of prop
rrty; w. ii. Vanderbilt on So $780,
600; A. Il. Stewards widow on
IS, $50 900; Amos r Emo, "a 900 900;
j. q. Bennett, ST. 200 600, and SO on.
The bulk of their wealth, however,
consists of securities which are not
included in the personal estate taxa
able in New York.
The temperance question promises
to play an important part in many
State elections this year. In Iowa
and Kansas an effort will be made
to elect anti Prohibition Begisla-
lures, while in Ohio, Indiana, Wis
consin, Nebraska, North Carolina
and Georgia, the Prohibitionists will
endeavor to secure Legislatures fav-
orable to their views.
A sensation has been created at
Easton, Pa, by the discovery that
according to the terms of an old
deed, dated 1854, the public square
known as the Circle Las reverted to
the heirs of John Penn by the re-
movai of the old court house build.
Ings The grant was made for the
erection of court house and for no
other USE whatever. There are heirs
of John Penn living in Philadelphia,
the Livingstone family, who inter
married with the Penn family, and
their signatures to "a release will
have to be made to make clear
title to the ground.

LABOR STRIKES.

1t is not a healthy outlook for the
coming business season that labor
strikes are occurring almost daily.
1t is significant, TOO, that these
strikes are not confined 10 any par
ticular section. but are increasing
all over the country. In the Cum
berland coal region, as perhaps at
many other places, the strike has
been brought on by an attempt to
reduce the wages of the employees
In but few, if any instances, are the
strikes the result Of demand for
increased wages. The attempt, there
fore, to reduce the wages of labOlerS
at this time, when there is 20 finan.
cial depression in the country, when
the demand for the products of labor
is as great as 1t was six months ago,
has the appearance of an effort on
the part of the employers to increase
their profits at the expense of the
employes-in other words, capital
grinding down and expressing labor.
This should not be, and capitalists
may yet realize that it is IA good
policy to ''live and let live.o The
attempt to force profits up to ten or
fifteen per cent. by cutting down the
wages of the laborer, is like killing
the goose that laid the golden eggs.
A miners convention was held at
Pittston, Pa, last Saturday, and
was attended by delegates from diff
ferent parts of the country. The
proceedings Indicated "a quiet and
strong determination to take meas
ures towards lettering their cOndi
tion. Where men are dependent on
their daily toll for subsistence and
find their already too small wages
about to be reduced, or themselves
cut off from even the right to work
three days in the week without either
compensation or redress. as is pro-
posed by some of the mining com
panies, it is only natural that they
should feel like taking strenuous
means in their own behalf. 1t is
gratifying to notice that there were
40 threats of violence or disorder
during the session of the convention
and that the proceedings were en-
ivened with a song. Men VINO can
whistle and sing in the course of
deliberations concerning their daily
bread may be even more determined
than if morose, but they cannot
incline 10 criminality in that mood
The song WAS happy innovation on
the ordinary proceedings of such
gatherings.

ACCOUNTS of devastation and
suffering in the Mississippi Valley
continue to increase rather than
diminish. Horses, cattle, human
beings swept to common watery

survivors, present a spectacle not
often witnessed in this land of pros
perity and general comfort. Relief
should be prompt and abundant.

THE effort to discover further
traces of belong, the Arctic eX-

ground for hope that he may be
alive. What is to be gained 10y tile
enormous sacrifices that have been
made to reach the north pole, or to
discover a northwest passage, is not
clearly apparent. The amount OF
commerce from those regions must
be exceedingly limited, and there is
no reason to suppose that a more
convenient course for navigation in
the trade of the world than those
already in use can be established by
such route. Yet as foolish as such
enterprises may be, sympathy always
goes out to those who are suffering,

DIED..

At his residence in this city on the I'd
inst, WILLIAM PHIPPs, at the ripe old
age of seventy-four years.
The sterling character of the deceased
cali for more than passing notice. He
was perhaps as fine type of an upright,
well regulated mechanic as ever drove
nail or handled chisel, and as joiner.
was unexcelled by any man in the state.
Humble and unassuming in his deport-
ment, claiming to be nothing but me-
chanic, he was the very embodiment of
fidelity, industry and integrity, and every
man who ever employed him will join in
presenting him as fit model for young
mechanics to follow.
Deceased was born in Oxford, Eng
land, December 14th, 1907. In 1856 he
emigrated to America, and came to Man
itowoc in the fall of 1856, where he has
remained ever since.
He leaves behind him his whole family,
consisting of his large hearted and worthy
widow and seven children, most Of whom
are well and favorably known in the com.
munity; two of the sons having long act
ed as deputies in the Office of register of
deeds.
The old gentleman, apparently in his
usual good health, dropped dead in his
garden on Sunday morning. His sudden
taking off without premonition, falls
upon his family and friends with heavy
force and calls for the tear of sympathy
and kindly coincidence of all.
Deceased was member of the Pres
byterian church in this city, where he
was sure to be found as regularly as the
Sunday came around. Ripe and full of
years he has passed in to that rest that
remaineth for the just, leaving an exam
pie for those left behind him to follow,
eminently worthy of imitation.
