The Preferred Creditor.
Paper Mill.


A good story is going the rounds
about New York merchant who re-
Gently failed for large amount. He
called all his creditors together and
offered to settle with them at ten cents
on the dollar, giving them his notes,
payable in thirty days.
AS most OF the creditors had little
hope OF getting anything they eagerly
accepted the proposition. One man,
however, stood out for better terms,
and all efforts to get him to agree were
futile. Finally the bankrupt took him
out in the hall and said:
Ven you come in an sign init de
udders den / make you preferred credi.
tor"
"Al right" said the kicker, "under
those circumstances 1 will agree to q
settlement"
The papers were signed and all the
creditors left except the one who had
been told he was to be preferred.
Vat are you waiting for?" said the
man who had failed.
"Why, you said l was to be pre-
ferred. I am waiting to know what
am to get"
"Vell, l tell you-you get notings.'
"Get nothing? Why, you prom
ised to make me preferred creditor
if would sign with the rest"
And so you are. make you pre-
ferred. l tell yeu now you get notings
De udders wait thirty days before dey
know it, and den dey get notings."

money. The Tribune suggests he put
it into some institution for the public
benefit-some charitable institution"
The people have become so accus-
toned to believing the statements
made in that very excellent religious
journal, and it would be hard indeed
to have them believe after reading
that article that the duty is not added
to the price of the imported article
and eventually paid by the American
consumer. Let me tell you that when
YOU go before the people in the COM
ing campaign in support of this high
protective policy of yours, you will
have to amend your speeches on that
proposition, and that you will find it
of no avail to substitute in its stead
that once potent argument, free
trade" The people having had taste
of free sugar are loud and earnest in
their demands for freer other necessa-
ries of life.
So far as know, it is not pretended
by our adversaries that the high rate
fixed in what is known as the McKin-
ley bill, which is now the law, was
necessary to raise sufficient revenue
with which to meet the expenses Of
the government; but the principal
reason assigned was that it was neces
sary in order to protect American Ia
Dor, and yet they have been asked,
and asked in vain to give an instance
where a protected manufacturer of
goods, on which the rate was increased
by the law, increased the wages OF his
employee; the fact is in number of
instances they were reduced, and yet
/ suppose the claim will still be made
that these high rates are necessary
for the protection Of American labor.
A MATTRESS 500 feet long, 25 feet

Der of Peter Cooper Alliance No. 2029.
On the way home from Lake City he
was drowned in Mulberry creek. Bro
Moran was hard working peaceable
citizen. blacksmith by trade. Every
one who knew Uncle John admired his
honor and integrity. He had no rela-
tives in this state. His political opin-
ions harmonized with those of that illus
trious statesman, Thomas jefferson,
who said, with all these blessings,
what more is wanted to make US hap
ply and prosperous people? Still one
thing more is needed-a wise and fru
gal government which shall restrain
men from injuring one another; shall
leave them otherwise free to regulate
their own pursuits of Industry and i'm
provement, and shall not take from the
mouth of labor the bread it has earned.
This Is the sense of good government,
and this is necessary to close the circle
of our felicities." He was strong adj
herent of the peoples party. The fu-
neral services were conducted, Sunday
afternoon, by Rev. g. w. Owens, at the
Sun City school house, after which the
remains were inferred in Sun City Gem

Mr.. Deigh had been in town all day do

that Mr.. Terril Parks was charged with

barbarity deserve the full allowance of
the law, and we hope to learn that this
is entirely mistake.
