Unity the Road to Success.

A town, to reach live business sta
tus, must make the social and pecunia-
ry interests of its Inhabitants mutual,
and this desideratum can only be
secur'd through unity of purpose and
action, and the latter can only be-
maintained under the fostering efforts
Of a local organization, embracing a
membership representing every busl-
ness interest of the village. This is no
chimerical idea or speculative theory.
Its practical utility has been demon
strated by thousands Of towns and
cities whose permanent progress can
be traced to the wise policy embraced
in concerted effort to roll the car Of
progress in, through around and about
the town in a manner that will attract
capital, stimulate enterprise, promote
industry and make the wheels of bust.
ness hmm on every street and corner.
Paralysis in trade, to a great extent, is
%traceable to a want of unity among
the business men on whose exer,ions
the progress Of the town and the pros
perity Of the community largely
depend. When such prime factors are
not properly unified, individual effort,
however we'll directed, becomes COM
paratlvely abortive, and the town,
s'like a wounded snake, drags its slow
length along" with dust, d~ilapidation
and decay forming her index finger
that points to its future extinguishment
Such is the history Of many once
thriving towns that have drifted into
innocuous desuetude from the lack of
united enterprise on the part of its
business men These facts need no
argument mol comparison to elucidate
the pertinent force Of the lesson.
Unity begets strength, strength begets
ambition, ambition begets enterprise
and enterprise makes life worth the liv-
ing.
Thus does the Atkinson Neb. Graphic
preach a pretty good sermon, which
reminds the STAR that the Board Of
Trade doesn't seem to be in very active
trim these days. There are ample
opportunities, yea necessity calls
for organization of business men in
Hot Springs. The year promises great
things for the city, and with a united
organization of business me to discuss
various questions Of public impor
lance we have no doubt but the entire
city will be greatly benefited.

The Mutual Iife,s. Report For 1891.

Inc Mutu0l lAIeS Report FOR 1851.
The F%orty-ninth Annual Report of
the Mutual Life Insurance Company,
shows the extent of ITS operations
during the past year, and its financial
condition on December 81, 1891. Each
successive report has usually been
declared to be 'tle best in the history
Of the Company" The report for 1891
is no exception, demonstrating as it
does the increasing popularity of the
Mutual Life and the extension of the
benefits conferred upon those fortunate
enough to hold its policies. The assets
now amount in the aggregate to $3.50,
507,13S.6s, and the liabilities to $l47,
4~76,171.52. The surplus fund for the
payment Of dividends and to insure
the policy-holder against every emer
gency amounts to $12,030,967.1 6.
But for the Former system of the
Mutual, which allowed its policy
holders to reap Immediately the benefit
Of the profits accrued in the form of
annual dividends. the amount credited
to this account would be largely in
excess of the surplus Of any other com
pany..

Down on the Cheyenne.
Feb. goth, 1892

EDlroE STAR:-Wc We're mostagree-
ably surprised on receipt of last
weeks STAR, to note its wonderful
metamorphoses. 1t seems to have
passed from the grade of satellite to
that Of planet. Long may it live,
and shine, and prosper.
While out last week looking for q
suitable addition to our dairy; IN the
shape of choice cows, we noted a few
things that may e of sufficient
interest to find aplace in your columns.
Fall River county is getting to the
front agriculturally much faster than
one would suppose it could, under the
adverse influence Of drought, hail and
Indian scares, that have been so pre-
valent during the last four years. We
found a spirit of cheerful confidence
as to crop prospects for the present
season. There will be much more
wheat sown than eve before. Fields
from fifteen to seventy-fve acres, and
not a few are now receiving the seed;
while oats, millet and CORN are to fol-
low. The ground already broken will
be seeded with small grain, and the
virgin sod, for the first time since crea-
ton, will be broken and seeded to corn
and vines. Be converted from a desc
late waste to a fruitful field, under
the dilligent hands of honest toll. The
real missionary is the man that opens
up a new claim on the frontier and by
his own honest effort adds its product
to the great granary of the world.
Here is faith shown by words.
Stock has wintered finely and is in
good condition. Horses are cheap and
COWS are plenty, at reasonable prices.
Stockmen are wide awake. They
are organizing societies or clubs, thick
and fast; and cattle robbers will soon
find Fall River county a hot place for
them. The club in this locality, met
at the ranch of Frank Mcdowell last
Tuesday. We hear that there were
| ten new members added and that
| there will be another meeting this
week.
The ice in the river was broken up
and swept out very suddenly last
Wednesday evening. A mighty tor
rent came rushing through, lifting the
thick ice from its bed and plling it up
in wnrows, block upon block, to the
depth of ten or twelve feet and severa!
yards wide, on either bank. 1t was
very sudden and soon over, but while
it was transpirlng it was an exciting
scene. The bursting, grinding, roar
! ing tumult, continued for an hour or
more and suggested a contest between
the batteries of two mighty armies.
We were stopping with G. s. Isham
and family that evening. They are
old neighbors from Illinois and live
eight or ten miles down the river.
The connection was much greater
down there as the ice was compact and
solid, not being effected by Fall River,
as it is here. But our letter is getting
so long it will become tedious soon, SO.

Pears
Soap

What is wanted of
soap for the skin is to
wash it clean and not
hurt it. Pure soap does
that. This is why we
want pure soap; and,
when we say pure, we
mean without alkali.
Pears is pure; no al
kali in it; no free alkali.
There are a thousand
virtues of soap; this one
is enough. You can trust
a soap that has no biting
alkali in it.
All sorts of stores sell
it, especially druggists;

PITTsBURG, Pa, July 29-"I think we
have practically all the anarchists who
plotted to kill Chairman Frick, of the
Carnegie Steel Company" said Police
Superintendent Roger O'Mara. There
may be one or two at large, but IL they
amount to anything we will be able to
get them. Every one suspected of even
the remotest part in the scheme is being
shadowed."
superintendent O'Mara rolled into
Pittsburg at 10 o'clock last night after
captive at his chariot wheel was the
frowsiest, dirtiest looking little creature
Imaginable. Frederick Molllck is a
typical Anarchist so far as dirt
goes. His white shirt is black aud that
is the cleanest thing about him.
He is about five feet five inches high,
narrow chested, stoop shouldered and
scrawney in the neck. He wears curly,
short brown beard. His mouth is weak,
aud his brown eyes are weaker He shut
fies at every third or fourth step, and his
only apparent object In life is to diminish
as far as possible the visible supply Of
cigarettes.
Five hundred curious Pittsburgers
gathered around the Union depot arrival
platform and watched the Pro-Consul
O'Mara descend from the limited express
with the captive and savage chief OF the
Anarchists 1t was as il lion led tiny
clipped poodle in chains. O'Mara is 9
feet 8 inches tall. His little prisoner
strobe manfully along in his weak, shuffi-
ing way. O'Ma-a did not handcuff the
toddling captive.
One unwashed foreigner raised feeble
cry OF "Hoch die Anarchie," but he was
suppressed.
How, A strong left hand seized his
coat collar at the back Of the neck and
stronger right hand gripped the amplest
part Of his trousers The hands drew the
shouter back an inch or two and then
hurled him far out into the night.
Do you know that there's a warrant
for your arrest on charge Of having alb
Quoted Mollick from Long Branch ?"
O'Mara was asked.
"Why, that's nonsense" he answered.
He wanted to come here. First, he
wanted to give bail in Long Branch, aud
when / explained to him that he must go
to Pittsburg before being bailed he was in
a hurry to get there.
Superintendent O'Mara is hiding some
developments in the case which he be.
leves to be important. Inspector Nc
kelvey oday discovered a card which
shows Henry Bauer's membership in one
of the most pernicious anarchistic groups
In this country. The card shows that
Bauer had attended fifteen meetings this
year.
As the anarchistic year begins in May
1t may be seen that Bauer was an indus
trlous meeting goer. The police pretend
not TO know where these meetings are
held, but am convinced that they know
and are saving this evidence with lot
more to be presented to the grand jury.
Finster and Pirnock, the suspects ar
res.ed yesterday, were discharged, there
being no evidence that they were in any
way connected with Bergmann.
Mr.. Tricks condition continues en-
tirely satisfactory and his rapid rec overy
now seems certain.
