In MemOrY of w. Il. Moore.

Drowned, April 18th 1893, w. B.
Moore in alake near Jack Young's Bridge
Place ON Little River about eight miles
below Laurens. The deceased was
born September 18th, 1850. Early in life
he united with the Baptist Church, and
was among the few members who organ
lied Holly Grove Church, November 1st
1888. His sudden death was greatly de-
plored by his relatives and numerous
friends, yet to his bereaved wife and
eight children the loss is irreparable.
He was a consistent member Of the
church. He was o kind husband and
fond father. His neighbors will miss
him, as he was ever willing to lend q
helping hand. God has smitten us deep
ly, but we trust that our loss is his eter-
nal gain. May God comfort by his spirit
and the fulness of his promises the sor-
rowing wife and fathorless children.
May they be enabled to say, in words of
the Psalmist, GOOD Is our refuge and
strength, a very present help in trouble"
We have parted with our brother at
Gods f%ootstool; we hope we shall meet
him at the Throne above clouds and sor-
row in
THAT sun-bright cline,
Uudimmed by sorrow
And unhurt by time,
Where age hath no power
Ger the fadeless frame,
Where the eye is fire
And the heart is flame.'

To Married Folks.

Young married people are frequently
treated through the press to big doses of
advice as to the process by which they
are to regulate each other, SO as to ensure
domestic happiness. In most cases, if
they take what is offered and follow the
directions, they will be more likely to
secure domestic misery.
s'How to manage husband" or CHOW
to manage a wife" may seem very plau-
sible to the writers OF such dispositions,
but they start from false premises and
therefore are sure to lead people who are
Influenced by them into the mazes OF
error and folly. Marriage is a partner
ship, and the object in view should not
be to manage the partner but to carry
on the business with view to mutual
benefit.
| Why should the husband strive to
manage his wife?' Still more perth
nent if anything is the query why should
woman seek to manage her hus-
band? The main effort should be on the
part of each to make the other happy.
That is the real secret of matrimonial sue
cess.
| 10 study the wishes and reasonable de-
sires of each other, to bear with the
weaknesses and faiiings which are inner
ent to humanity, to perceive and recog-
nize the good qualities and be charitable
towards each other and not magnify the
errors and mistakes, these will help to
promote domestic harmony far more than
any attempt at management.
Above ali things married people should
avoid the matchmaking efforts of busy
bodies who intrude their advice upon
husbands and wives and who generally
succeed in making discord and destroying
peace. Couples ought to settle their own
difficulties. and keep to themselves their
personal grievances. Outside parties
should be left outside, under all ordinary
circumstances, and their interference
should be resented.
No management of one another ought
to be exempted. 1t is sure to breed
trouble. Undue restraint will always
become irksome in time. Confidence is
necessary to happiness and freedom
within proper limits is also essential.
Don't try to manage; do try to please;
and there will be peace. and joy in the
household and marriage will not be

Another BIG Strike.
Grafton

The strikes along the line of the Union
Pacific are rather ominous. They share
the dangers that surround all great en-
terprises in the country, where men are
employed who are at the command of
leaders Indifferent to everything but the
consummation of their plans.
The men, who have struck work, i'm
perilling the interests OF the company
aud incidentally the public, were in most
instances satisfied with their wages, and
Of themselves would not have ceased
work. But they were ''ordered out. -
They are at the beck and call of their
bosses in the unions to which they be-
long. They have yielded up their free
agency and must bow to the dictum OF
their chiefs.
This is a menace to the success of such
enterprises as are dependent upon con-
tinued labor. Cessation OF work causes
losses that are incalcuable. In the case of
railroads they affect the travelling public.
And just as the roads are expecting to
have their resources taxed to the utmost
they are placed in a very trying position.
1t is to be hoped there will be dis
position on both sides to settle this dis
pute on principles of justice and equity.
Advantage ought not to be taken of the
critical times and circumstances to force
the railroad companies to do anything but
fulfill their contracts. They ought to be
willing to do that. The matter ought to
be settled without delay.
One thing is sure: If there are losses
forced upon the companies the working
men cannot escape injury themselves.
Wages will not be fully made up from the
Union supplies. Ii they stay out on
strike long, the effects cannot fail to be
disastrous to them as well as their en-
ployers. And there is no real satisfaction in
bringing loss upon capital when labor
suffers the greater deprivation.
The fact that at the command of one or
two men hosts Of workers will throw
down their tools and march out to idle
ness, which frequently leads to dissipa-
ton, which provokes men to break the
peace. and to invade the rights of others
who choose not to be bound by the con-
ditions which they have placed them
selves in, is a very serious thing to con-
template. 1t presages greater troubles to
come, and the conflicts likely to arise be-
tween labor and capital are made terribly
formidable by the power which few men
in this country can WELD over the great
industrial armies OF the land.

Utah Silk Products.

The silk industry was one of the pro-
jects urged upon the people of Utah in an
early day by that active and enterprising
pioneer, BRIGHAM YOUNG. He urged
the planting OF mulberry trees, started a
cocoonery and induced quite number of
people to engage il raising the worms
and producing the silk. A factory was
also started in this city, and some ex-
cellent fabrics were made which reflected
much credit on those who had charge of
the enterprise.
OF late years the business has been per-
mitted to anguish. Silk goods are man
utactured to some extent in this city, and
they form very elegant souvenirs of a
visit for tourists. But silk raising is not
followed to any great extent, nor is there
much interest in the matter compared
with that of twenty-five years ago.
Yet this region is admirably adapted to
silk culture. The dry climate, the warm
sunshine, the quickness Of growth of the
trees that afford the best food for the
worms, the number Of women and chill
dren who could be employed in the bust.
ness, all tend to make Utah very favor
able spot for sericulture.
Something of revival of interest is
likely to be created by the action OF the

Traitorous Threats.

The chief of the Tuscaroras has done all
he could for his tribe in the way of en-
deavoring to obtain offices for them. We
are not able to see that he has &C.
complished or is likely to accomplish any
thing in that line. 1t is not very proba-
bic that encouragement will be given to a
faction that fights the regular party in
matters that not only affect local issues
but national affairs.
At the last election for Delegate in Utah
the Tuscaroras, claiming to be Democrats
voted against the candidate of the party
and in favor of Liberal, joining with
others who claimed to be Republicans.
That was something more than conten-
ton for mere local issues and stamped the
Tuscaroras as hostile to the Democratic
party in this Territory. The plea of their
chief, then, that they are Democrats in
everything except as regards local dis
pute, is nothing but the special pleading
Of biased and interested attorney.
That gentleman, IN our opinion, has
greatly damaged their case. If his cor
respondent has told anything like the
truth about the interview with Col.
LAMONT. POWERS has betrayed a dis
position on the part of his tribe which
will not recommend itself to any sincere
person, he be Democrat or Republican.
He was Intercepted by the Secretary Of
War in regard to what he desired and ex-
pected for the people he represented, and
was then asked: 'What are you going
to do II you are not recognizadg
He replied that as to himself he would
always be a Democrat. But, said he:
