How to get our mail when due is a ques-

Ing of the difficulty between Hotel Riley and
Messrs. Deuuison and Gallagher, claimed
that they were from the'' somewhat ceiebrat-
ed West End" They not from the
West End, but were from Reynolds county,
and are none the worse for that. The fact
that they were cleared, the cost f4Oyou say)
thrown on Ironton, appears to have been

few of the citizens Of said city. Then to put
the whole responsibility, rs usual, upon the

residence out here has taught me that the
West End has been an object to which few
resort to give vent to their venom. When a
city or town suffers such institutions as Ho-
tel Riley and others, no better, to be kept in
omen violation to the law and morality, it is
nothing but justice that such city or town
should pay all costs that is a consequence of
said institution. Everybody knows that
Hotel Riley, practically, has been nuisance
for quite while, and it should be suppress

acter than of legitimate business. Then is it
Justice to fue one whose moral training has
not been such as to give him sufficient sta
biity of character to resist such temptations
simply because he goes in and gets into
racket? But justice is a tickle goddess!

Bro. AXE, l am very sorry to see you TAX
ing the step you do in the Hitler Bill, for you
must remember you were poor man once as
we are. Now the labor bill is a rich mans
move; 1t is done to crush out these little
mills. L have often heard mill men say in
st. Louis if they had some way of stopping
these mills lumber would be a better price,
as we can't hold our lumber and they can,
therefore they force their lumber OH the
market on account of not being able to hold
it, and this labor bill is a move to close these
small mills, for these big corporations or
mill men can pay every day if they wish.
There are some fifty mills between Ir0ntou
and Poplar Bluff, working in all about
twenty five hundred men, and | will guar
antee you cannot find twenty-five of them
that are dissatisfied with their pay. think
our legislature ought to investigate this mat
ter more fully before they pass this act.
Let them send committee down here and
call a meeting aud see who is being treated
badly by these pluck me-stores. l am glad
to see our friend Jasper Burks standing up
for the mill men. Hold the fort, Jasper, for
we are coming. ISAAC.
