Copying our item in reference to the
way the boys pile it on sometimes
when referring to the Bluff, the Citizen
says:
Pray inform us, Bro. AXE, how you hap
pen to know. To our certain knowledge
you have not visited Poplar Bluff within the
last decade. Now Bro. Harris, of the Leader,
did visit the Bluff once, but owing to the
fact that he failed to get further into the city
than that portion occupied by the saloons,
he imagined that everybody was drunk but
himself. Perfectly natural.
We have nothing further to say.
Bro. Harris has the floor.

For out-and-out assinine argument,
with false premises as basis, the fol-
lowing paragraph from the Springfield
(Ill.) Nes0s takes the cake: Congress
should no more improve rivers for
transportation monopolies than inn
prove railroads for railway corpora
tons. Railways are now the great
highways of the nation and not rivers.
If the steamer and tug lines want the
rivers improved they should do it the
same as the railway companies do and,
if necessary. charge toll, the same as
on pike road, also u highway in a
cou nty. We are opposed to all such
class legislation, at the expense Of mil
lions of people who never get a dollars
benefit from it," This in reference to
the failure of Congress to appropriate
money for the Improvement of the Mis-
slssippi. The editor of the NeWs may
run a skiff on the "great Massassip,"
with no man to say him nay. Rail
roads are private property, and not ev-
ell the editor of the REGISTER dare put
a hand-car OH any of the tracks Of the
Missouri Pacific system without per-
mission from Jay Gould, its owner.
When river becomes the competitor
Of railroad, every man, woman and
child in the adjacent territory is great
ly benefited by reason of cheap car
rage. Who, then, can estimate the
benefits conferred to all by the Father
of Waters in the Great Valley? No
corporation does or can own it. 1t be-
longs to the people, and is one of the
few things that cannot be stolen from
them ana given to the monopolists by
Republican Congress. The tOll-gate
idea is all original one, an.-but we
remarked, early i'm the game. that the
Ne,Ds man might have the cake.

PUT LIFE INTO YOUR WORK.

A young mans interest and duty
both dictate that he should make
himself indispensable to his en-
ployers. He should be SO industri-
Gus, prompt and careful that The
accidenE Of his temporary absence
should be noticed by his being
missed. A young man should
make his employer his friend by
doing faithfully and infinitely all
that is entrusted to him. It is
great mistake to be over nice or
fastidious about work. Pitch in
readily, and your willingness will be
appreciated, while the heightened
young man who q1ibbles about
what it is and what it is not his
place to do, will get the cold shout
der. There Is q story that George
Washington once helped roll a log
that one OF his corporals would not
handle, and the greatest Emperor of
Russia worked as sbipwrIght in
Epglsnd-to learn the business.
That's just what you want to do.
Be energetic, look and act with ALA
Gritty, take an interest in your en-
ployer's success, work IS though the
business was your own, and let
your employer know that he may
place absolute reliancs in your
word and On your &C. Be mindful.
Have your mind on your business,
because it Is that which is going TO
help you, not thoss outside attrac-
tons which some of the "boys" are
thin king about. Take s pleasure in
work.Do not go about It in a 1istless,
formal manner, but with alscrity
and cheerfGlness, and remember
that while working thus for others,
you are laying tho foundation of
your own success in life.
