WE MUST DO.

Haven't our people had about enough
time and experience to learn the truth
of what The } ERALD told them many
months ago, that in beoms as in every
thing else the Lord helps those who help
themselves7 When the boom furry
set in last year, The HERALD warned
the people that il the life and activity
which they hoped for and expected, were
to come and continue our own folks
must be the leading spirits in the bus
mess. We told them they might
food the county with enticing
literature, and send agents in
every direction 10 drum for customers
for what we had to offer in the way of
material advantages and inducements,
but all would amount to nothing unless
we proved our own faith by our works.
Some said The HERALD was not the
right kind of a boomer" THE HERALD
knew what it was about all the same.
It knew that something more than
jawbone was necessary hereabouts. 1t
knew that if We did not mani
fest confidence in more
convincing manner than by pro-
Tossing it, others would show
none at all. 1t is hardly neces-
sary to refer to the fact that we we're
right. The years experience has i'm
pressed the truth upon all and people
are fast coming to the conclusion that
the local community must lead in mat
tiers of development and progress. In
that way we may encourage others to
follow. In no other way can we inspire
them ito advance. II we have the
courage to spend our own money
for improvements, so down into Jour
own pockets for the cash with which to
develop resources, others will see tn at
we have confidence in the professions
put forth, and faith in what we allege.
If we build factories, others may be en-
couraged to do the same. If we erect
better buildings for business or resi-
dence, others will do likewise. If we
establish new industries, we may expect
others to follow suit. But once for all,
let our people understand that no faith
can be inspired in others unless we
show the possession of that faith ouA
selves.

A DISPATCH from Richmond, We.
says that R. A. Brock, secretary of the
Virginia Historical Society, has care
fully searched all records with reference
to General Ben. Harrison s ancestry.
He says that there is absolutely no
foundation for the legend that connectG
the family of President Harrison with
that of the regicide, General Harrison.
The first record of land grants in Vir-
ginia shows that Benjamin Harrison
was granted 200 acres in the Isle of
Wight in 1886. Mr.. Brock said a'so
that the Harrisons are not entitled to
any coat Of arms, and that all efforts to
trace one have failed. The family was
large one, and intermarried with
leading families of Virginia, some of
whose creeds they adopted. The origi-

vicious war against the railroad COM
pany.
1t begins to look very much as if the
Burlington people knew what they
were about when they made these ar
rests; and it also looks as if the
BrotherhCods would have to go. II the
facts shall prove to be as now indicated,
there is but one course for the firemen
and engineers to pursue to save their
organizations. They must at once read
the conspirators out of the Brother
hoods. and then do their utmost to
bring the guilty to the punishment
they SO richly merit. If the conspiracy
shall be traced to the very heads of the
organizations, then the heads should be
bounced and turned over to the fate
which they deserve. 1t is not the time
or occasion for sympathy. There ars
good men in these societies, and they
cannot afford to have their names tarn-
ished and their honor, integrity and
trustworthiness destroyed by connec-
ton with and upho!ding men SO de-
PRAYED and vicious as those engaged in
the hellish conspiracy which is being
exposed.

Young Mr.. HEARST, the son of the
Senator, is said to be greatly exercised
over his fathers extravaganza in the
matter of horsehesh. and is really
afraid the old man will bring the family
to poverty if not to the poorhouse. A re-
cent dispatch said the young gentleman
had started east to persuade his father
to buy no more $4,000 colts, and had
telegraphed friends to hold the old
man down in this matter until he ar
rived. Young Hearst is running a big
newspaper, and as tits generally under

sity of his father keeping ahealthy bank

POLITICAL WIPES"
Every true partisan now shows his
bias by the handkerchief which peeps
out of his pocket. and the dealers in
those useful articles rejoice exceedingly
The designs are varied. The bandanas
run from the cheap 10 cent article to
the genuine silk which costs So to 81
Not a few of the Democratic emblems
are combinations of the Stars and
Stripes and portraits of Cleveland and
Thurman. The Republicans have
adopted the national flag as their orr
famine, but so far no one has been
caught in the act of desecrating the
colors by applying the handkerchief to
its proper use. This is not the
first time in American politics
that the handkerchief has played a
co lspicuous part in Presidential
Campaign. Secretary Fairch1Id now
has in his possession, in trust for Its
lady owner, silk handkerchief of very
beautiful design. In the center is q
white square, upon which is the por-
trait of William Henry HARRISON, the
hero of Tippecanoe. The field of the
handkerchief is dark blue, surrounded
by stripes of black and white, while the
border is of bright red. The Secretary
took it over to the White House and
showed it to the President, who ad
mired it very much. but remarked that
1.-THE plain red bandana would win this

went up that the Burlington officials
were pers9cut ing the Engineers and

protested not only innocense, but the
greatest establishment that they were
even suspected of so ugly an offense.

parties were really members of the

the thought of the men doing the things

hoods would aid the law officers in
bringing the accused to punishment.
Then Chief Hoge and Chief Murphy,

lively, were arreste as being implica led
in the alleged conspiracy. They also
were greatly astonished. The lawyers
employed by the Brotherhoods stepped
in promptly to defend all the parties,
and the Burlington people went ahead
to make out their case and sustain the
charge. AS evidence of the feHdish
plot developed the men began to
