LIQUOR AND LABOR,

Terrence V. Powderly said in
Boston, June IL, 1887:
"The greatest curse that labor
has to contend with to-day we find
in its own home, in it's own grasp
the worst weapon that is welded
against labor to day is held by the
strong right hand of labor itself, and
when that weapon is raised in the
shape of glass which carries with
it the rum which browns mans rea-
son."
the General Secretary of the
Knights of Labor said in 1879:
''The two deadliest foes of labor
are rum and ignorance"
1t is generally understood that
the above Indictment only refer to
the demoralizing influence of the
drink on the drinker, but Mr.. Pow
derby has ably shown that he con-
siders as well the injurious effect of
the traffic on the non-drinking
wage~worker.
The liquor traffic is relentlessly
hostile to labor, in that it diminish
es the opportunities to work for
bread, for which work has been
done.-Greensburg (Ind.) Argu-
ment.

A HEROINE.

In Pittsburg, Pa, the other day a
woman, furious to the point of mar
der, became in the twinkling of an
eye heroine as self-sacrifcing as
ever breathed. She and her hus.
band quarreled. Goaded to desper-
alton by the man, the woman picked
up lighted lamp and threw it at
him. 1t struck his head, breaking
into fragments and covering him
with blazing oil. TIE terrible sight
transformed the wom4n's passion in
simultaneously. Tearing of her
dress she sprang to smother the
flames that were roasting him. And
in attending to him she ignored the
fact that her own clothing had taken
fire. until he was out of danger ::
then she was so badly burned that
she died in short while. The man
was not badly hurt.

One art that seems to have vastly
improved within the past twenty-five
years is that of annealing glass. The
lamp chimneys Of to-day withstand
sudden changes OF temperature that
would instantly have shivered those
OF three decades ago, and it seems
how almost impossible to break one
save by blow.

him to give bond, or go to Jail.

John Miller, who lives down on the
Oostanaula river, FIVE miles from
Calhoun, has surpassed all one-haul
records we have heard of. Upon
raising his basket last Wednesday
morning, he found ninety blue chan
mel cat in it, and packed as tightly
as if each fish had been an ear of un-
shucked corn and careful hand had
done the packing. The basket, in
fact, was so full that it would have
been impossible for another fish to
have entered. Upon weighing the
total number, Mr.. Miller found that
he had just even 80 pounds.-Cal-

engine was blown through the

opposite side, which it crushed to
atoms, and then fell to the ground,
going a distance of about 40 feet
from the starting point. Portions
of the boiler and timber frame were
blown several hundred yards away,
and landed in swamp. In passing

was driven through a room packed |

From Vulcan.

| Ed Re9tSfeF-N Will try TO send
you few items from our little town
and vicinity again.
Corn looks right well. but owing to
the wet weather the farmers could not
work it much. and, as a consequence,
some of onr fields would make a good
place for student of botany.
We are sorry to say that John Nc
Fadden, who has been sick for some
| time, is not expected to live long, and
the people are all at once beginning to
| find out that he was a very good man.
How strange that men seldom get full
credit for their good deeds until they
are dead Or dying Mr.. McFadden
lived at Vulcan until recently, when
he removed to Ruble g. Stevenson's
| mill, known in this neighbOrhood as
the Scatterville mill. This mill is sit
uated at the Stamey place, B miles
southeast of Annapolis. The firm is
composed OF the following gentlemen;
VIM. Ruble, VIM. Stevenson and Geo.
Morris. On the same mill plant, T. P.
Fifz operated a saw mill some Is yrs.
since, and 8 years after G. Collins
placed a mill at the same place. and
now only a few feet sway stands the
mill of which we speak. This mill is
probably the best in the county, hav-
ing cutting capacity of $4,000 feet a
day, and is cutting from 20 to 25 car
loads of lumber each month. which,
considering the bad roads, is a good
mill business for the country. The
members Of the firm are all gentlemen
and hustlers in the mill business.
We believe Will Ruble to be the
funniest man, according to size, in the
county; Wills standing weight is $50
lbs he is so brim full of humor and
good nature and laughs so much that
he grows fatter ali the time.
Thos. Meyers, while hauling logs,
met with a very painful accident.
While loading log the chain broke
and flew back with such force that
one end of it striking Mr.. Meyer on the
jaw inflicted very ugly wound. Tom
tells us 1t came well nigh being a
knockout blow.
James Stevenson of this place got
his foot mashed between the couplings
of the cars.
We recognize another miserable
failure on the part OF the State TO
prosecute in the case of some boys
from Annapolis. charged with having
disturbed the peace of some one at or
near Vulcan: we exhonorate the prose
cutting attorney in this. but Justice of
the Peace who couldn't tell volumne
of Missouries' statutes from yellow
back almanac, would be a jewel in Des
Arc. This seems to be one of our of
years and reminds US of a tale of which
we have read. A certain prosecuting
attorney having imbibed a little to
freely of fire-water during court, and
the court calling the case of the State
against Jones. and asking if the State
was ready for trial. the prosecuting at
torney staggered forth with, '.if your
honor, (hic) please the State is, (hic),
drunk" whether the State is drunk or
not we do not know, but it seems as if
we have fallen on evil days.
We are much obliged to Murphy"
for his commendation of our former
article of the Underwood case.
Wishing success to the REGISTER and
its readers we will close.

"A representative of the State Board

formation upon which to base a re
raung OF the cost of insurance From
what the young man says rates in the
business part of town wiz be increased
two and three hundred per cent; liz
80 residence portions there will not
Alch change In the blocks on
Main street between Wayne and Rey-
noids- the new rate will be nine per
cent, other parts Of town the rate will
be proportionately increased This is
nothing more nor less than robbery,
ana the people viii never submit to
such extortion- The re-rating is being
made all over the State, and, as q
reason therefor, the companies assert
that they have been losing money In
Missouri for several years past This
may be true but we doubt it The
reasons we doubt IL are numerous:
there are few, very few insurance
companies going under, and they pay
their official such princely salaries as
are never heard of in any other line
OF business; they also maintain to have
lost money in Iron County the past
year. This, of our own knowledge we
are satisfied is false. and that is why
We doubt the statement as 10 the en-
tire State, as for this immediate local
ity every one knows the insurance
companies have done a profitable
business away hundreds of
dollars to where they have had to pay
back one We are willing to abide by
what is fair and right, but we will not
be heeced, and it is our belief that the
local agents who have signed the
agreement to stand by the new sched-
ule will notice a remarkable decrease
in their business in the near future.
