INJUSTICE AT STOCKTON.
Linkerman g. SIseer's Employees Must Go
or Deal in the Company Store.

Deal III company store.
A few days ago mention was made of
an order posted by Linderman & Skeer,
operators of the Stockton colieries, pro-
hibting Hazleton and other merchants
from driving into that town to supply
the employees of the company with gro
ceries, meat, etc. The notice, however,
had little effect on the merchants, who
continued to send their agents there to
take orders and deliver goods. s.
We are informed that the company
have now adopted more direct and eff
fective means of coercing their en-
ployes into dealing in the store, that of
serving notice on them that unless they
buy their mine supplies, groceries, ETC.,
from the company store they will be OBJ
liged to vacate the company's houses
and seek employment elsewhere.
Our informant says that one of the
men receiving such notice went to the
office of the company to inquire the
the cause thereof, when he was inform
ed that if he desired to remain he would
have to buy in the company's store and
from the company's butcher. All this

THE OATH OF OFFICE
Administered to Cleveland by Chief
Justice Fuller and to Stevenson
by Vice President Morton.

WASHINGTON, March 4.-Capitol hill, as
far as the eye could reach from the east
ern front of the capitol, was an undulating
sea of humanity assembled to witness the
administering of the oath of office to the
new president by the chief justice of the
United States and to hear, as many of
them as could get within earshot, the in
augural address.
The picturesque and thoroughly repub-
lican practice of taking the oath of Office
and delivering the inaugural address in
the open air in the presence of the people
was begun by Zachary Taylor in 1S49 Pre-
viously the inaugural address had been
read in the senate chamber.
The proceedings at the capitol followed
prescribed programme issued by the COM
mittee of arrangements, as follows: The
east doors of the senate wing of the capitol
were opened at 10 o'clock a. m. to those
who were entitled to admission, and the
doors of the senate chamber were opened
at II o'clock a. m. to those entitled to ad-
mission.
The president and the president elect en-
tered the senate wing by the bronze doors
in the east front, each accompanied by Il
member of the committee of arrangements.
The president went directly to the presi-
dents room, and the president elect to the
vice presidents room, where they remained
until they entered the senate chamber.
Having been introduced by the committee
of arrangements, they occupied seats re-
served for them in front of the presiding
officer. The committee of arrangements
occupied seats on their left.

The sweet Italian, or Bermuda
onions, are the ones to be eaten
as natural, the flavor being much
more delicate than the common
varieties. But onions are really

the local effects have passed
away, as they correct stomach
disorders and carry off the &C.
cumulated poisons of the system.
They provide blood purifier
that all may freely use, and do
