The New York Tribune has been
doing a good work for the children
of that city. It started a ''fresh
air fund" for the purpose of sending
such children as are prevented on
account of the limited means of their
parents from enjoying a season
away from the hot city to different
locations in the country, and thus
giving them little fresh air Tues
days Tribune says:
lowing to the generous subscrip
tons to the Tribune fresh air fund,
the work of sending poor children
into the country for a two weeks
vacation is still pushed forth with
energy and success. Eighteen par
ties were taken out of the city last
week, numbering about 900 chill
dren. Yesterday morning 1000
were still on their vacation, and
eight companies more left New York
in the course of the day, for places
in Massachusetts, Connecticut, New
Jersey, Vermont and different parts
of this State 1t is a pleasant feas
ture of this work that the children
have not only been benefited and
made happy, but the families into
which they have been received have
felt more than repaid for the trouble
that has been caused by the sight of
so much unalloyed happiness among
their little guests"

The Republicans of this county
will bear in mind that conventions
will be held IN every district
of this county on Saturday next to
choose delegates to the Compression
al convention. If the Rule supper
tiers will turn out in the same pros
portion that the Houk supporters
are sure to do, Rule delegates will be
sent from nearly every district in
the county. Houk's stickers have
been at work, and every Houk man
will have to be on hand, as the boss
has the whip in hand and proposes
to flash them in. Let the Rule men
turn out in each district and show

them. Let them go with the deter>

ACCORDING to the Evening Post, a
number of leading citizens of Brook
lyn addressed a letter to Secretary
Folger, requesting him to take espe
cial care that the work on the new
Federal building in that city, for
which provision was made by Cons
gress at its last session, should be
entrusted ''oply to men of recog,
nized ability and integrity" -
The Post adds that very little
observation is needed that such pre-
caution is timely, and calls attention
to the fact that 'apart from the hiss
tory of Federal architectural under~
takings, the New York court house,
the Albany State capitol, and East
River bridge are cases in point. The
Brooklyn people are anxious that the
equivalent for every dollar expend-
ed, and also, that the erection of
their greatly~needed building shall
not be a source of partisan 'infu-
ence and be used 'to further fac,
tional political ends 1t is a pity
that the citizens of all cities which
are to be literally provided with
Federal headquarters are not as
watchful in this respect, or at least
do not advise the Administration of
their vigilance. Of course there is
something humiliating in the sug-
gestion that the government needs
to be reminded of the duty of EN-.
ploying men of recognized ability
and integrity in it's business but
since the appointment of Mike
Dady as superintendent of repairs
of public buildings the Brooklyn
people are persuaded that they must
take facts as they find them

The little boss will find that the
lashing business won't pay here any
more than it did in Washington.
The free men of the mountains of
East Tennessee do not propose to be
dashed into obedience to any boss,
nor will they quietly stand by and
allow themselves to be called dogs,
or any other vile epithet that the
boss or his organ may choose to in
vent. He will find that they will
rise in the power of their manhood
and hurl from office the man who
has not been satisfied with gross
ly disappearing them IN
the halls of Congress, but
who comes homo and insults and
degrades their manhood by virtually
saying to their face Notwithstand-
ing [ am charged with failure to
perform the duties to which you
have elected me, and have disgraced
the position by drunkenness, have
helped to defeat your candidate for
the Senate, none of which charges
have denied, and called upon my &C
cusors to furnish the proof, Yet, I
propose to lash you into line, and
you must send me back to Congress,
me, your boss Your master 4.
They will not be dashed, and the
boss and his organ will find it out.

Der LIST, 1882, on Freemasonry in the Holy
Land" Bro. Coleman's travels in saarch OF
"More Light in Masonry" have extended
through Europe, Egypt and Asia, and largely
in this country. As a lecturer, his style is
simple and engaging. His personal observa-
lions at Jerusalem and through the Holy
Land afford him a field OF varied and sub
lime description, and the members of Lodges
will not do well to let slip such an opportun-
ity to become acquainted with the man and
his subject. I'm communication Of about
one hour, Bro. Coleman will take his hearers
Tin imagination) through Egypt to the Holy
Land, and will give thorough description
of Mount Moriah, that wonderful structure
which is the only remaining vestige of the
handiwork Of Hiram's builders. His recep-
ton by primitive Masons Of the Orient is
l,,cidly described, and how he informed
himself as to the traditional manner I'm
which Freemasonry has been preserved
there for 5000 years without Lodges and
without degrees. Bro. Coleman's lecture Is
absolutely free. There is no charge for adj
mission, and no collection is taken up.

Our Trip to Piedmont.

In company with several friends, we had
the pleasure Of visiting Piedmont last week
1t was our second visit to that place; but we
must say that we were agreeably surprised
to see the rapid improvement Piedmont had
undergone the past five years. Although
yet not so large as Ironton, it bears evidence
Of thrift and business. The town is clean
and the residences are not inferior to those
of any other town in the Southeast, showing
that the citizens are cultured and prosper.
Gus people. They have seven mercantile
houses, two drug stores, one hardware, jew
ery, millinery and dress-making establish
ment, five hotels and one in process Of cree.
ton, one clothing store, one bakery, saloons
churches, etc., etc. Piedmont has popula-
ton of about six hundred.
We had the pleasure, while there, of meet.
ing Mr.. Roussin, of the Banner, and found
him to be a genial, wide-awake business
man. MIR. Chase's family, formerly of oul
town, are doing a thriving business at the
Williams House. The Lopez brothers have
large store filed with we'll selected stock
and are commanding fine trade.
The crops are good in that section, hence
the people are happy. Fruit, of all varieties
is very abundant, and surpass, in quantity
and quality, the fruit of this section.
To the Misses Petit we return thanks fol
hospitable treatment-and we shall long re-
member pleasantly our visit to Piedmont.

He Braces the Register

Ed Register-Your editorial in the last
issue Of the REGISTER on mob law, had the
"right ring" and as law-ioying and law
abiding citizen of our common county, we
feel assured that large majority of the peo-
pie say ''Amen" to your utterances. In all
civilized lands there have been found two
classes Of society: the iaw-abiding and the
lawless; the governing and the governed.
When the former class is largely in the as
cendancy, we can lie down ut night with the
calm assurance that society, with its inherent
respect for our institutions and laws, will
protect us from the inarauder: but when the
latter element predominates, We have ''ter-
rorism" indeed. In such u state Of affairs,
none could wish to reside; none are safe, and
our society becomes an object of derision by
better governed communities. We believe
that Iron county has quite majority OF peo-
pie who respect and obey the laws, and that
will not go to extremes. Citizens who have
families to raise under the influence of our
society, and those who have their means in
vested in homes here, can not afford to have
the one ravished by the libertine, or the 9TH
er deprecated in value by the mob. Like
We pToIest aSiiHst any iufthei
of "Judge Lynch" The Of
ficials and all good citizens of our county
may show disposition to forbear; but there
is limit to which, if the lawless go, the
former will! rise in their might to assert the
majesty of the law, and mobocrats will be
made to feel that nothing is more powerful
than righteous indignation.

The Southern End of Iron County

Finding that there was occasion for visit
to Annapolis, on the 7th inst. at $40 A. NJ,
left home on foot, taking the railroad. A
few moments before Z O'Clock met the II nj
the south side of Tip-top, with heavy train
but well encouraged by the Ga. At 9:45 Mr.,
Shepherds mill was reached. He was moi
there, and the employees seemed to be
afraid of sunstroke. Steam had not yet
been raised on the works. 81
At 10:45 had cordial grasp of the hand
and a pleasant word, from Grandfather Nc
Neeley, and drink of excellent water at his
well. Shortly after leaving his house, two OF
Sutton, met me.
About fifteen rods north Of mile post 1903
a fine heifer had colIided with south bound
train, and was dead. A short distance below
the 142 was met, coming at a spanking gait
with heavy train. The strength and stead.

At mile post 104, at ~ O'Clock, the Local

ut Ozark; but I saw Mr.. Giles Russell, who
looked very much like working man.
A hearty drink ofgood water was taken at
the old familiar spring, about eighty rods
south Of Ozark. At mile post IO6, at IL 80 p.

forty rods south Of lot wolf crossed the
