intelligent men, who were misled by a
few so called chiefs. 1t was mis-.

sacrificing their individual predllec-

gigantic corporation to accede to their
unjust demands. How long would it

demands would have been made upon

that the Burlington could not ill their

The bereaved husband, and little son.

Editor Independent: On Sunday, the
25th ult., my duties forced me to pass
through our city at 8 P. NJ. Some
church bells were ringing as | left
home. but the lights of the saloons
gas and electricity-seemed to have
attracted more than church bells
could. Every saloon was open, and
alas! well filled. Passing along Bridge
street saw some boys "fired OUT of
saloon. They were from IA to 10
years old.
opened the door of the "place"
mot to call it a viler name) and was in
formed that the boys had been playing
pool; got into a row and were kicked
out. There was no policeman in sight
but quite a number of people had
gathered for the fight and enjoyed it
hugely.
For nearly nineteen years | have
done my best to keep up the morality
of our city through home, school,
church influence and example. know
full we'll that when home is no longer
home, our boys and girls will seek
amusement elsewhere. When our faith

and church influence are killed by
their bad example. The Ancients
said: ''Verla movent empla trahunt,
which means: Words may move, but
examples pull. We are on the eve OF
another election. This matter is of
greater importance than parks, nation
atty and caucuses. 1t should be tanta-
monnt to everything else.
Give us mayor, who, supported by
his aldermen, will be able to close sa-
looms on Sunday and prevent minors
from entering them at any time. The
present mayor OF our city has done his
best, but his hands are tied. Unsup-
ported he is only figure head.
Let priests. ministers. editors and
prominent citizens take hold of this
moral question; it involves many an
other one, and by doing SO make our
city safe family home.

Mrs. A. P. Weld. of this city, had an
almost miraculous escape last Tuesday
afternoon attempting to pass team
driven by drunken man. Being un-
able TO turu out by reason of the depth
of snow, she called to the man to stop.
This was unheeded. The horses were
soon in collision and became entan.

ing fast in the harness of the team
she met. The man drove on as il
nothing had happened and his horses
began kicking, finally striking the cut
ter in which Mrs. Weld was sitting
doing her best to extricate her horse.
To save her life she sprang from the
cutter into the snow and came near
being thrown under her horse which
was struggling for liberty. The man
drove steadily on in spite of entangle
ments, and Mrs. Yields cutter was
broken to splinters, her horse turned
a complete sOmersault and was drag
ged about ten rods behind the mans
sleigh. 1t was with difficulty that the
drunken man was persuaded TO stoE
his team, though on a slow walk and
perfectly comfortable, and let those
who came to the rescue relieve
the poor brute he was dragging
behind. The marvel is that Mrs
Weld escaped serious injury an(
her horse still lives. Doubtless action
will be brought against the man fol
damages, if he is not prosecuted fol
