Sharp complaint is made of how the
farmers of Maine are ground down by
the heel of the greedy capitalist" In
this case the greedy capitalist is the
sweet corn Gamer of Maine. The prin-
cipal agricultural industry in some parts
of the state is the raising Of sweet corn
for the canneries, and Maine canned
sweet corn has a name throughout the
world. A writer on the subject tear
fully begs the prosperous Gamers TO
consider the farmers a little next year,
and for the love of humanity to offer
fair price to the farmers. Well, they
will not do it. 1t is not the way of cap
italists ever to cut down their own prof
its for the love of humanity. The only
thing will be for the agriculturists, for
love of themselves, to start canneries Of
their own on the cooperative plan.
They can do it. The canneries of Maine
are represented as without exception
prosperous and growing more so.

Gone to Chicago.

Mr.. Geo. McKennOn, of McKennOn
Bros & Anderson, has gone to Chica-
go TO replenish his stock Of goOds. In
addition to the mail orders they make
almost daily, this is an extra trip
this enterprising firm has been COM
PEELED to make to meet the heavy de-
mands upon their stock. They adj
veTtise- and advertise liberally-in
both the DAILY and WEEKLY HER
AID. Moral: If you don't want 10
make extra trips after new goods,
don't advertise in the HERALD. But
the HERALD does not do more than
half OF it. The other half is that Nc
KeDnon Bros. s. Anderson keep good
goods, and sell them cheap.

IN SELF DEFENSE.
Charlie GOad Takes a Knife From a
Negro AssaiIant and Cuts Him
With 1t.

Charlie Goad, son of w. ]. Goad
the butcher, had a difficulty Sun
day with a negro named FriersOn,
and cut the negro with his own
knife.
Goad is boy only seventeen years
old, but is strong and well set, and
as the event proves, of a very resO-
Lutte disposition. GOad was attend
ing to his business ct his fathers
slaughter pen across the river on the
Brown farm.
The negro was in his way and
Goad ordered him out. The negro
cursed Goad, and GOad started at
him when the negro threw stones at
the assailant and finally drew his
knife and attempted to cut GOad. By
some means, GOad wrenched the
knife out of the negroes hand and
got possession Of it himself.
As the negro turned in the strug-
gle, Goad cut him with the knife on
the head. The wound Is OF consId-
cradle length, but is not dangerous
and will not give serious trouble.
The negro also received wound on
The hand in the struggle.
Goad, although a mere boy, was
unscratched.
The affray occurred outside the
CITY limits, and will therefore not
come before the police court. 1t may
come before magistrate on States
warrant, but as the cutting was done
in self defense, it will probably give
Goad no trouble.

THE FATAL SHOE.
sidney Young Died at the Arsenal This
Morning; From his Suicidal Act.


Morning; From his Suicidal Act.
Sidney Young. the soldier who shot
him elf III EasG End Thursday morn
ing, died at the AIRS a Frids y morn
ing at 10 o'cl,.ck HIS remsins viii
be s~nt TO Tad 'anspo'is to-@ay for
ipterment. There wa no inque-t
held ny the Core ner, h1r. Guest he
lug advised by legal counsel that
it wOulO be an unnecessary e4pt nsr
10 tie cOunty. The GeNd soldiers
brother end he officers at the Arse
nal who were most directly inter
eAted cOncurred in this opinion.
There were several witnesses WI"
saw Young shoot himself and posi-
tive evidence that the mad act Was
prem eGitated. 1t seems that Young
was a fine -Fecimau of phy-icai man
hood, and that he v as first rate
soldier when sober, but that he was
addicted to drink, and when under
its influences disre garded his mill
taTy duties. On several occasions
when allowed TO visit Columbia, he
has been so drunk and dIsorder!y
that the poles have been compelled
to arrest and punish him. He has
also Civ the military authorities
at the Arsenal good deal Of trouble.
Some months ago he was court
nartiafed and imprisoned for four
months at Northern military post.
Since his return he has been doing
better until Wednesday night when
he was granted a leave OF absence TO
witness the Democratic celebration.
He was under promise to come in al
g certain hour that night. Instead OF
returning at that hour however, he
became intoxicated aud went to East
/ J, q Z
houses of i'll fame. Knowing that
guard would be sent for him, he grew
desre, ate and said he would xiii
himself before he would be taken
back to the Arsenal. He made this
threat to number of people, among
others to Mr.. Will Guest. He
showed Mr.. Guest his pistol, and tod
him he in:ended TO shoot himself If
arrested. Some of the women who
sew him say that be did fire one
chamber of his revolver at himself
early yesterday morning, aud TINS
statement is cOrrObOrated by the TACT
that two chambers of the pistol were
empty after the fatal shot was fired.
A letter was found Un his person
directed to his people at home tell
ing them that he intended to kill
himself. This letter was supposed
to have been written yesterday
morning. 1t gave no other reason
than those above mentioned for his
desperate determination. Corporal
Gall and 8 private soldier were sent
to take him back to the Arsenal.
When they found him he asked for
delay of few minutes, which they
granted. One of the women told the
Corporal that Young had pistol
and to watch him. Young reached
for his pistol and the Corporal made
dash to take it from him, but he
succeeded in getting it from his
pocket and put it to his head turning
round and round to keep it out of the
reach of Gall until he got good
chance to shoot. The ball entered
the right side of the head and pene-
trated the brain, lodging on the left
side of The head just above the eye.
The pistol was a small 81 caliore but
the wound was in vital or
gan and the doctors knew that death
was inevitable. He was an ualnar'
ried man.

To the Non Advertising Merchant.


Do you think you are doing right?
Do you not think you ought to en-
courage, patrOnjZe and help sustain
the DAILY HERALD, an enterprise
that talks for and helps build up
every other enterprise in your city?
When you want to start q public
enterprise Of any kind, who do you
go to first and who helps you more
than your daily paper?
SVhen your banks get in trouble,
how do you reach the people at large
and reason with them? How much
is the DAILY HERALD worth to you
then?
The newspaper encourages and
helps TO build up every other indus
try and enterprise in your city.
Ought the other industries to do
nothing III return?
THE HERALD gives employment to
SEVENTEEN men and boys. 1t never
misses opportunity to say a good
word for Columbia and Maury
County. DON'T you think you ought
to give the least encouragement or
support to an enterprise of this kind?
And in addition to all this, the mer-
chants who are trying the DAILY, say
it pays them to advertise in it. And
if you will Try it you will find that it
will pay you.
twill not only pay you indirectly
by sustaining an enterprise that helps
build up your town; but it will pay
you directly by bringing you trade.
The trouble is you have not thought
over this subject. If Columbia did
not have a daily, and a stranger came
here proposing to start one, you
would GIVE to the enterprise and con-
tract to advertise besides.
But because you already have it,
and because no demands of that kind
have been made on you, you don't APP
preciate what you have.
Now think about it AMI come and
give the DAILY q trial.

At this season Of the year the

companies occurs. As a general
thing tue members are losing interest
in their companies on account of
insufficient funds tocarry on the COM
pany. Usually an cncampment. is
held annually which is n thing
that keeps the boys together and
without that feature there is not
much hope of having 4 well organ

Kansas Newspapers VIII Combine to OPP
pose the Ready Print Combine.
A convention of the publishers of
Kansas has been called to meet in
Topeka, December 81, for the organ
ization of a cooperative newspaper
union, composed entirely of the news
paper publishers of the state. Such
men as ex-senator III. b. Kelley OF
Mcpherson, and Others are among
its promoters. 1t is claimed to be an
open boycott of the combine" patent
inside houses, who 1t is alleged, have
been making the editors pay exhorbi-
tant prices for their ready prints with
out giving them the benefits OF the
advertising. The organization is to
have a paid up capital o fs5,OOO and
an authorized capital stock of $4,000,
the stock divided into shares of $40
each and one member limited to
100 shares. No one can become a
member of the association or hold
stock unless he be a newspaper man
and doing business in the state. The
headquarters Of the new union Will
be in Topeka, with a branch office
in the interior of the state. The
scheme has created much comment,
and the managers Of auxiliary houses
have called upon James B. Good, OF
the Sabetha Republican, the
~instigator of the movement, making
overtures to him to abandon the
plan or permit them to secure stock.
He publishes their names in TINS
| paper.

Too Tender for Any Good.

AS i~nstancing the senseless Ideas
entertained by some fool cranks
'sback east about Dakota storms, it
may be stated that the men WHO were
in Hand county during the thlieshing
season called the Illinois outfit we're
so 'dum fuddled" and .'scart. about
being caught in a "blizzard" that
when they encountered their first
snowstorm a week or two ag,pEthey
dropped everything-not putting
away the belts on their machi5e and,
when right in the midst OF a job
abandoned everything, and dug out"
for home as though Satan himself
as after them. Pure and unadul-
terated fright wasall that allied them.
II is to be hoped that the eleven
mothers OF those eleven suckers"
will keep them alive after they get
home with nursing bottles, filed with
warned milk seasoned with catnip.
They are too tender by all means for
roughing it in "Blizzardy Dakota"
The farmers whom they left in the
lurch by skedaddling are forced to
run the machine themselves to get
their threshing done.
