Gen. Harrison makes capital point
in his letter of acceptance when he
says that the purpose OF all parties to
prevent the importation of pauper la
Dor would be virtually nullified by the
reduction of the tariff so as to permit
pauper labor to do our work in Eu-
rope; and that the evil of destructive
competition would be only one of de-
gree whether the competition was
across the sea OF across the street.

The Us wish to thank the many la
dies who have offered their flowers to
be sent away. "e think you will be
interested ia reading letter we late
ly received from st. Paul.
DEAR GIRLS OF RIVER FnIs:-We dis
tribute the flowers which you send
each Wednesday. We ought not to
thank you for sending them for we
know you do it from love to the Mas
ter; but we do thank you for giving
us the privilege of distributing them.
We have taken most of the flowers to
the City and County Hospital because
st. Luke's and st. JOseph's are provid-
ed by other flower missions. One day
we took some to the News Boys Home
and the boys were delighted.
Please come with us through the
Hospital. Here are three large stone
and brick buildings with such pretty
yard overlooking the Mississippi. Un-
der the trees are sitting some half doz-
en- men. Some with crutches and
some with their arms in sings. Sure.
ly the manned, halt, and blind are
here. But we cannot give these flow
ers until we see how many patients
are inside. Last week there were six
ty.five and we had only fifty-five bou-
quets.
We enter a large hall and meet one
of the doctors, who are always glad to
see us. Then we go up stairs to the
ward where the convalescent are. We
leave each with bouquet and a
brighter look. In the next room we
find three women in bed. One is so
weak that she cannot take the flowers,
but we lay them down b. her. An
other has a dear baby by her side and
we give her our message of love and
purity. Then we enter a large room
with sixteen white beds. This is the
surgical ward and all the beds are full.
Here is a boy fourteen years old, who
tries to thank us but cannot speak. A
friend sitting near reads the verse to
him. All have flowers at last and we
pass into the fever ward. The pa
tients see us coming and they put out
their hands to take our flowers. If
they are too sick to take the bouquets
we lay them near by. Here is one
poor fellow so sick that the doctor
says, mo use giving him one," but
his eyes follow us all round the roem
and seem invited to the bright flowers.
We return and give him bunch and
as we leave he is still gazing at them.
Some little children have helped me
distribute and they always pick out
the sweetest bunch for "blind
john" He has lost both eyes and one
hand and after being here nine months
is not we'll yet. We send what flow
ers are left to the contagious annex
and when the nurse brings back the
baskets we go.
Girls it is a blessed work and wish
you could all come and see the results
for yourselves.
Your Y sister, l., A. W.

Can They Afford It.

We recognize the right of everyone
TO do as he pleases about his OWL
business, but as long as individuals
work together for tho upbuilding oil
the city in which they live, every
thing that can be should be done tC
increase the business interests, and to
sustain home enterprises. There is 9
disposition on the part of some Of
Hopkinsville's representative business
men to send away from home for GER
tain things needed, instead oflooking
to the interests of home trade. Es-
pecially is this SO of some who have
occasion to use printed matter. They
are led to believe they are securing
what they need at much less price
than they can get the same for at
home, but when the printing is COM
pared with home work, and the quail
ty of the paper used examined, in
nearly every case the difference wi.
be in favor of homo work.
The warehouseman can afford to
patronize his local paper, for 1t has
labored for years 10 build up the to-
bacco market, and in so dong bene-
fits the dealer.
The banks can afford to lend their
influence and patronage to their local
paper, for it works for the increased
prosperity and upbuilding ofthe city,
all of which lends aid 10 the banking
institutions.
The business men in general should
lend helping hand to the support of
the county paper, for no opportunity
to say a good word for the trade in
terests of the city passes unnoticed.
There is no disputing the fact that in
nearly every line Of business, pur-
chases can be made cheaper in larger
cities, than in Hopkinsville, but so
long as individuals are united to build
up their own city, this strayipg from
home should be discouraged.
The trouble with Hopkinsville is,
she takes more interest in the bust
ness outside of the city than she does
in her own. Nothing can ever be
done to increase our trade unless each
and every one who is identified with
the city's welfare makes up his
mind TO pull for advancement This
is matter worthy the consideration
of all, and whenever we realize that
10 go tv--'-,' 70 have a larger city and
home, and always speaN--ls,sfo for all
for Hopkinsville, but until this inter
est is manifested, we might as wei
make up our minds to stay just WHERE
we are.

in the following from the Toledo

Field Il Co.'S Minstrels began an
engagement at the Opera House last
night, and although the thermometer
was up in the nineties, the house was
packed TO overlooking. The per-
Torrance from first to last was the
cleancst, brightest, and best minstrel
entertainment that we have had here
in long time. 1t was minstrelsy
pure and clean, and as minstrelsy
should be. The singing alone with
this Company would form an even
lng's entertainment in itself, far SUI
perior to some of the so-called must
cal companies. Throne, the Europe
