The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1885-11-12

noticeable, however, that the Speake
was rather severe on some ministers, ant
religious people generally, great dea
more so than upon the doggery-keepers
and pious citizens of the Jesse James
type. Still, if any good is accomplished
he should have credit to that extent. -.
G. A. Atkinson, who has been in Kansas
for two or three weeks, declares that the
Prohibition law is disregarded to shame
full extent, and that there was great
deal of drunkenness. This was of course
the fault of the officers of the law per-
juring themselves and not discharging
their duties. In other parts of the State
the law is successful. .... That doggeries
can be carried on in such manner as
one on Main street was tonight, is simply
a disgrace to the town.
| SUNDAY.-Star Furnace had to blow
out to-day on account of break in the
stack "A couple of young colored
men were diversifying the monotonous
round of this hum-drum life this after
noon by firing with revolver at target,
over near Huron, this afternoon. A de-
cidedly bad practice, especially within the
corporation, and on Sunday. -. After
considering the situation to-day, the coal
operators decided to pay the advance of
ten cents per ton asked for by the miners.
This makes the prices 6Oc. and Csc. in this
region. 1t is pleasing to see an amicable
arrangement between employers and
miners, as lengthy strike at this time of
year would be attended with much suffer
ing.
MoNDAY.-Uncle Billy Gordon, of Lib
erty, is in to-day. He has a daughter
who has been quite sick for long time.
Uncle Billy has taken the STANDARD al
most ever since it started, and this would
make him happy man if nothing else
did. IA man was selling Ohio River
fish on the street to-day. Nv. c. Gould
is packing up his goods to-day to start |
for his new field. -. The miners will |
go to work in the morning. The advance
in the price of mining is to be paid until |
affairs are settled in the Hooking Valley. |
.....Evan j. Morgan, of Jimes, called |
to-day. -. In the light of recent expert |
ences, it would perhaps be profit
able, and decidedly moral thing for Jim |
Hall to come back to Jackson and at
tempt to teach our people morality, as he
sees it from his standpoint. 1t would
not be at all surprising if there should be
considerable pulling, by the next grand
jury, for furnishing liquors to minors.
The sight of little boys confined in the
calaboose, or reeling about the streets
drunk, is not pleasing one. Such sights
are said to have occurred within the past
few days, in this place.
TUEsDAY.-A little boy baby, perhaps
two weeks old, was left upon the steps OF
the residence of Mr.. Hudson, and near the
residence of W. A. Steele, on Water street,
last night. The cries of the little visitor
aroused Mr.. Hudson's family, and the
child was taken in, and later turned over
to Trustee Joseph Humphffes, who found
a lodging place for it. The child was re-
specially dressed, but its identity is
mystery. The leaving of a child out in
the cold during such weather, would
make the guilty party good subject for
a whipping-post. -. Poor & Hoskins
took through town to-day the largest
drove of cattle that has passed through
for long time.
