due wholly to the fact that Davenport is
winning the pennant, while Peoria is
struggling for fourth place. The insult
of the Transcript towards the people
who attend the Davenport games, many
of whom are from this city, may be
chsritably considered as emanatiDg from
a source that knows no better. To be
sure there are those who occupy the

and Untrue Assertions.
The Rev. Adds Albro in his sermon
Sunday evening on "Some Essential Ele-
ments of Successful Labor" pointed to
the Golden Rule as the only solution Of
the labor problem of the day. He did
not believe that any law regulating the
length of days labor to eight hours
could prevent the natural law Of supply
and demand from proportionstely re.
ducing the wages for a days work
He sympathized with labor in all its
efforts for the betterment OF its condi-
ton, and ADVOCATED division of profits
on the part of the employer; but held
at the same time that most of the
trades unions and labor organizations
Of the day are tending toward social
ism. Most of them he declared are
now semi-socialIstic. He referred to
the recent labor day celebration on Syl-
van island, and to the utterances of Hen,
ry ID. Lloyd, of Chicago. which utter.
ances he held to he at least semi. socialis
tic, rs well as tending away from the
church and religion. The speaker also
regarded ii as bad commentary on the
habits OF labor that statistics showed that
two>thirds OF the 500, 900. 600 annually
spent in this country for intoxicants was
spent by the laboring people: and he re

When the chairman of the meeting on
Sylvan island Monday announced that
Mr. Albro was to deliver sermon on
labor. and urged all to go and hear it the
natural superstition was that the sons OF
toll were being invited to hear their cause
extolled and not belittled and compared
with the aims OF lawless semi-civilized
class, the leading representatives OF
which the American people have been
obliged TO hang and tie doctrines of

The pastime of cock. fighting has be-

birds 40 common that several families
have at least one of good pedigree Just
last week young blood OF our city was
passing along the street with fine bird
under his arm when married lady
CHALLENGED him for main, which he
accepted. After few rounds he found
his bird was being wOrsted, and he
picked it up and tried to get away. But
the lady had become 80 thoroughly
aroused that she was determined to see
the contest through, and grabbing the
bird out of his hands it was soon lifeless
and limp from the final blow Of her bird.
Caution-No one is allowed to read

If the above item had been recorded
of Fayette county, where they had a
mad dog epidemic, it might have been
surmised that rabid condition had
seized the people. But how are we to
account for this morbid condition of the
ancient capitol Of Ohio?
The request by the Gazette that the
notice is not to be red between the lines
is not without meaning. But the Ga.
zette relates, or rather draws the infer
ence, that the practice of cock fighting is
kept up by sports from other places.
Yet no surprise is manifested that
cock.fght should take place in the town
at which woman and lad were the
managers and spectators. The conclu-
sion of the average reader who reads

Chillicothe is badly (yes sadly diseased

What Nextf

Again Mr.. Thomas Edison's name is
before the world in very significant
connection. II will be remembered that
Mr.. Edison already stands high in the
scientific world, and particularly in the
utilization of the electric currents. This
time he is announced to have said that
ha Is on the track of the secret which
will directly convert an original equiva-
lent in nature, such as coal into power
without the use OF the dynamo. This
announcement from Mr.. Edison means
much, and taking the two phrases in his
declaration, that OF the "original equiva.
lent in nature and the dynamo" to be
combined together to accomplish a cer-
tain end, only one conclusion can be
drawn as to what Mr.. Edison's secret can
mean, and that is that he will utilize the
electric currents without any other aid
for lighting and propelling purposes, and
as a matter OF fact for heating purposes
also. The people who live in the latter
part Of the nineteenth century are ready
to receive such statements as plausible,
yes and more than plausible, from the
fact that many of our cities are lighted
by these currents. Small engines and
railroad trains are being driven by this
force of nature. In this we are prepared
to expect the greater from the less. 1t
may seem almost incredible that this
element of nature may be tanned and
harnessed to do the heavy work Of the
age, as we'll as the more delicate part of
heating and lighting our homes. But
this is truly an age of wonders, and
Judging from what has already been &C.
complished the wonder will be If com.
plete revolution in the motive power OF
the age is not accomplished.
