In 1924 gin drinking began TO affect
the masses. and Mr.. Lecky, in his His
tory of the Eighteenth Century" draws
a terrible picture of the way in which
the fatal passion for drink was at once
and irrevocably planted in the nation
says Archdeacon Farrar. in the Fort
nightly Review. On that account he
likes on that year as one of the blacklist
and most fatal epochs in English history.
And are we now TO be told that drink in
those days did not cause crime? One may
suppose that the grand jury of Middle
sex were under nU such utter deluSion,
for soon after 1I24 they sent in a pow
erful presentment in which they declared
that much the greatest part of the pow
erty, the robberies and the murders Of
London might be attributed to drink.
In 100 the London physician also drew
up a memorial. and said that there were
then 1i,OOO cases of fatal illness due To
gin alone. At the SAM time Bishop
Benson of Gloucester, one of the best
bishops of the bench, used these words:
Our people, he said, have become
what they never were before--cruel and
lnhuman. These accursed liquors, which,
10 the shame of our government, are so
easily to be had, have changed their very
nature"
At the same time the whole bench of
bishops i~nterposed the unsuilied purity
of their lawn between the nation and the
curse of drink traffic. as in these days
our judges have interposed the stainless
sanctity of their crmine." They pro-
tested against the gin act as founded
on the indulgence of debauchery, the en-
couragement of crime and the destruc-
ton of the human race Lastly John
Wesley said: But all who sell drains or
spurious liquors in the common way to
any that will buy are prisoners general.
They drive men 10 hell like sheep. A
curse in the midst of them"

New York Tribune: 1t Is Characters
tic of our British cousins that although
it has been found almost impossible to
obtain from the courts of law protection
Of the rivers and streams whence drink
ing water is derived. yet that the highest
court Of appeals in the land at once
granted the necessary legal safeguard
when it was pointed out that the pollu-
ton of the water was such as 10 render
it unfit for the distillation of whisky.
That was an argument that seemed 70
touch the House of Lords, sitting as a
court of appeals, in a particularly weak
spot, and while the noble and learned
legislators appeared indisp rsed to do any
thing that could appear as destined TO
encourage the consumption OF pure water

poanded was 1T once granted.

MEMORABILIA.
"NEVADA."

1t was stated last week that it
had been decided to throw over
the above play, but the ladies
have since succeeded in getting all
the parts filed and it will be given
next Thursday night. A lot of
special scenery has been fixed up for
the occasion and it will be one of
the most realistic performances ever
given in Weiser and those who
attend will be well pleased. The
cast of characters is as follows:
Nevada, an old hermit crazed over
a lost mine-N. F. Kimball.
Vermont, an old miner, daddy of
Hard Luck camp-R. E. Lockwood.
Mother Merton, widow who feeds
the warm hearted miners. Mrs. Kim
ball.
Moselle, waif adopted by Yer
mont, the pet of the camp, just re-
turned from an eastern boarding
school. Kate Brady.
Agnes Fairlee, one of Moselle's
teachers who has come back with her
to search for her brother. Minnie
HAWTHORN.
Silas Steele, missionary of health
who is spreading the glories of Busteo
Balm in the mines and at the same
time keeping his weather eye out fol
his respected sire who left home years
ago. Ed Bennett.
Tom Carew, young miner. Oar
Cotter.
Dandy Dick, his partner-Clyd'
Lockwood.
Jerden, detective who turns GU
to be an adventurer plotting for 8
woman's love, in search of Dick Fair
lee Walter Riggs.
Judy, a negress who general.
knows about all that goes on in tn
camp-Mrs A. Z. Roberts.
Win Key, stray child of tn
fowery kingdom that has wanderers
into the mines. A. 4. Roberts.
The scene of act one is laid i
front of Mother Merton's cabin il
Hard Luck camp.
Scene of act two, interior of Vel

MINERAL.

Things are moving along nicely.
The mines are working small crews
but will increase their force as they
get things Strengthened out A few
idle men in camp yet. W. E. Lock
ard was awarded the ore hauling con-
tract for the Maria Co. and is now
busy with little crew Of his own put
ting the roads to the mines in repair.
Mr.. D. Robertson has the wood con-
tract and is making the necessary
preparation to supply the smeIter.
For the first time, our mail has
failed to arrive for the last two days
The ferry boat is tied up on account
of the dangerous state Of the river,
which is very high and swift.
We made no mention of strike in
our last communication. Really there
was no strike. When Mr.. Darby, the
superintendent of the Maria Com
pany, was ready to 60 to work he told
the men they could 60 to work and
that the miners wages would be three
dollars a day The first day, the
men refused to 60 to work. for three
dollars. The superintendent gave
them one day more to make up their
minds and said that if they did not
90 to work he would have crew of
men sent in and those who refused to
90 to work should not be employed.
The men are nearly all at work now
and everything is going on smoothly.
The eastern Oregon papers seem to
take great pleasure in publishing the
fact that miners wages at Mineral have
been cut down to three dollars day.
We consider this matter that needs
no publicity, as there need be nc
apprehension that the miners will be
deceived about the wages paid in 6
camp. They always have a secre
telegraphy among themselves tina
newspaper men or correspondents are
not allowed to learn or know anything
about; but they always know the wag
es. If the mine owners Of Minera
had such free gold mines as the Whit
Swan, the Virtue or Baisley Elkhorn
they would not ask their men to worl
in wet ground with dangerous explo
sives for three dollars day.
Mr.. John Mulloy, of Weiser, is il
Mineral looking after his mining in
terests.
Mr.. Beach was here with load O
eggs and butter He had to leav
his outfit and 60 home on horseback
as he could not cross the river or th
mountain.
