THEY WILL NOT BE DECEIVED.

All the signs of the times point
Enthusiastically to the fact that the
workingmen of the country cannot
again be stampeded by the ''tariff
scare" The fact has just come out
that every member of the committee
OF twenty-five laboring men who
carried to cx-Gov. Porter the reso-
lutions adopted at last weeks meet
ing of workingmen had previously
been republican, and every one of
them has announced that he will
vote against the republican candidate
president next November. Equal
ly significant is the announcement
made by the Indianapolis Labor
Signal that ''The Master Workman
of the knights of Labor in Indiana
becoming convinced that the best
interests of the laboring men de-
mand that the federal tariff tax be
lifted from the necessaries of life
and placed upon the Injuries, has
taken the stump in opposition to
high tariff, free whisky and Eenja-
min Harrison" A third event show.
ing how strongly the tide runs in
the same direction was the adoption
at Fort Wayne on Tuesday by the
State K federation of Trades and La
Dor Unions of Indiana of resolutions
strongly denouncing Harrison and
Morton by name, and declaring that
the laboring classes Cannot support
the candidates of the republican
party for president and vice-presi-
dent, because both of them are want
ing in sympathy for thu laboring
classes" The fact has leaked out
that the republican managers made
a desperate effort to capture this
convention, but failed ignominious-
ly, and the resolutions above refer
red to were adopted with but one
dissenting vote. Two things are
rendered perfectly plain by these
occurrences One is that the atti-
tude of the labor vote renders it
impossible for Harrison to carry his
own state, and the other is that the
workingmen of the country won't
scare worth a cent at the free trade

WILL NOT HANG.
ED. FREY'S CASE CARRIED UP,
And He will Not Hang next Wednesday

Mr.. j. L. Foster, attorney for Ed.
Frey, the wife murderer, who was
sentenced to hang on Wednesday
the Goth inst, went to Canton last
Friday and presented to Judge
Brown the necessary papers for APP
pealing his case to the Supreme
Court.
The doomed man anxiously await
ed the return of his attorney. He
had only twelve more days to live,
until the time fixed for his execu-
ton. He was counting those days
with death staring him in the face,
and his deep concern for a longer
lease of life grew as the days short
ened
On the return of MIR. Foster from
Canton, he at once proceeded to the
Jail and found Frey sitting in his
cell reading his Bible. He inform
ed him that he had appealed his case
to the Supreme Court and had OBJ
tanned supercedeas, staying the
death sentence. Frey's face lighted
up with smile, while he thanked
his attorney heartily, and said that
he was glad that he had further time
to get ready to die.
This gives Fry several more
months to live. 1t is probable that
his case, even if affirmed in the Su-
preme Court, will not be reached
until after the adjournment of our
next Superior Court in which case
he would not be re-sentenced until
the next March term but some say
that his case will be heard by
the Supreme Court in October, and
if no new trial is granted, he will
be resentenced at November term
of Cobb Superior Court and will
hang in December. Mr.. Foster
thinks he will get new trial. All
any rate there will be no hanging
here next Wednesday, and the crowd
will be disappointed if they assem-

THE LAW OF THE ROAD.
From the Americas Recorder.

From the AmerlcuS Recorder.
The scribe was loafng around the
court house Saturday morning, when
he was enlightened as to a piece of
law by Judge Pillsbury. The Judge
says that quite a number of those
who ride through our streets seem
to have an idea that it is the bust
ness of the pedestrian to keep out of
the way of vehicles and horses. The
idea is mistaken one. 1t has been
decided by law that a person who is
riding must see to it that he does
not run against a person who is
walking, and the rider or driver is
responsible for damages to the per-
son run over.
There is good deal of fast driv-
ing in Marietta, and those who en-
gage in it, can profit by reading the
above.

A BROOM FACTORY.
BROOMS AND HOW THEY ARE PRO.
DUCED.

There is one industry in this
country, says the American Inven-
tor, in which the small capitalists
have been able to hold their own
against the wealthiest man in it,
and that is the industry of broom
making. 1t is business in which
a journeyman of skill and prudence
can hope to establish himself, if he
wishes, within a few years after he
has learned his trade.
The process of broom making is
simple, and yet it is such that ma
chinery has never been devised for
turning out complete broom, and
beyond the sum necessary to erect
such an establishment as will permit
of certain division of the labor,
an abundance of capital is OF no
special advantage.
The growth of a broom factory is
interesting. A young man of eco
nomical habits learns the trade, and,
having learned it well, is able to do
the equivalent of turning out 100 to
125 or $50 complete brooms a day.
AS matter of fact, in well-regulat-
ed shops no man makes a complete
broom, but only part of it, but the
journeynan having learned his
trade we'll can do enough work US
ually at piece prices to earn from
two to three dollars per day. Out
Of this he ought to save $500 before
starting in trade for himself With
this sum he can buy enough ma
chinery Cat a cost of $3.50 and stock
to set from three to five men at
work, and keep them at work until
returns come in from the sales That
is very modest capital, but since
machinery costs so little, men have
started on $500, and even less, and
made notable successes as the trade
goes. Secondhand tools can be
had sometimes for $50 or $50, a
couple of bales of corn would cost
perhaps S35, five hundred handles
$3.50 more, and other supplies S25,
and then the man is ready to set up
shop and make all the brooms his
neighbors can use, at least.
The trade in New York city calls
for about 10000 dozen brooms a
year. The majority of them are
made in Amsterdam, and other
towns along the Mohawk river.
Many come from Jersey, however.
The factories are unpretentious
buildings. Steam power in the
larger factories is used in stitching
the brooms and in winding the wire
around the corn where it is secured
to the handle. The largest factory
in the business, according to a New
York dealer, turns out 1000 dozen
brooms day, or twice as many as
the New York trade demands. In
such a factory a mans work is
equivalent to the making Of from 200
to $50 brooms day, according to
the quality Of the brooms.
An industry of this kind in Ma
rietta would pay, and "a man of
small capital can engage in it, and
keep constantly employed.

"The youngest child of w. M.
Tipton," says the Macomb Qll)
Journal, "a bright little fellow of 2
summers, was out in the yard play
ing, and when found by its mother
shortly afterward, he was trying to
put live rattlesnake into a bottle.
The little fellow was fondling it,
and would lay it down and pick it
up again, the snake all the time be-
ing perfectly passive, and making
no effort whatever to bite. The
mothers horror can be better imag-
ined than described when she took
in the situation. She called her
husband, who came, and when the
snake was laid down, he grabbed
his child and killed his snakeship."

her brother, Robert, four years her
junior, were playing on dock at

Jumped after him. When he arose
to the surface she seized him, and
