Our Carpenters Insulted.

The Anthony & Kuhn Brewing Asso-
citation has sent St. Louis carpenters
to this city to repair its beer depot.
This is an insult to the carpenters of
this city. We have just as good ar
penters in this city as they have in st.
Louis and they work just as cheap as
the st. Louis carpenters, but they were
not given a chance to do a little work
for the big Brewing Association. The
Anthony & Kuhn concern wants to do
business in this city-wants u peo-
pie to drink its beer, but it is not will
ing to leave a cent of the profits from
its sales in the city. When one OF its
beer wagons needs repairing the wagon
is ordered shipped to st. Louis where
it is repaired by st. Louis wagon
makers. painted by st. Louis painters
and freight paid to st. Louis steam
boat corporations.
In the face of all this there are some
people in this town who have the gall
to say it would be wrong to shut out
this st. Louis beer. What benefit is
this Anthony & Kuhn Brewing Asso-
citation to this city we would like to
ask? II does not eXpend one dollar
here, while our home brewery leaves
every dollar it makes right here with
our people.

EDITOR DEMOCRAT:-The editor of
the Cash-Book seems to be very much
exercised because the Daughters of
the Ccnfederacy" are to have their
dancing party in the court house of
this place. From the way the ''squib'
is worded we would judge that it is in
tended as a fling at the Judge of
the Common Pleas Court for permitting
public property to be use for private
purposes. This court house has been
a thorn in brother Franks side ever
since it was enlarged and greatly inn
proved and we presume he will con-
tinue 10 have hard fits" about it
until he is ready to give up the ghost.
We do not speak for Judge Ross and
have no apology to make for him. but
we do insistthat the Daughters" have
a good right to have their dance there
il they so desire. They are all tax
payers of this county and contributed
very much more to build and improve
this court house than did our brother
of the Gull. We wonder how much our
brother Frank will lose any how, by
reason OF the damages that Will result
from thatdance. We understand Judge
Ross made no objections to the
Daughters using the court house and
rave as mis- reason, therefor. that the
object was q worthy charity which u
owncitizens had undertaken. Ourfriend
ought to be consistent. If it is a vio-
lation of law to use the court house
here for Il dancing hall, why is it not
also a violation of law to use thecourt
house at Jackson as a lecture hall for
the benefit of every temperance crank
that comes along, and many other
things which brother Frank has taken
such an active part in getting up. How
is that. brother Frank: Have you not
lost quite as much in that way as you
will be likely to lose from our Con-
iederate dance? But we don't want to
be mean about it. Make out your bill,
brother Frank and send it down and
we will pay up.

special Notice.

1t is high time that some of the faith
ers and mothers of the numerous little
boys in this town were looking after
them. and especially after dark. Quite
a number OF our people have been
greatly disturbedlately by some young
reprobates shooting at their windows
with what is called ''nigger shooters -
or throwing small rock.
Parents, think of your boys becom-
ing so vicious at so early an age as to
be prowling around the alleys and
back yards of dark nights, shooting
at, among others. an old widow
woman's window thereby causing her
great annoyance. Whilst you, the
father of this little william. is either
sitting by your fire reading your paper
or wrapped in sound and peaceful
slumber while the soul of your boy is
paving its way to hell.
There is an ordinance against these
things and we shall see to it that it
be enforced. PLAIN DEALER.

The Pope as a Mountaineer.

The present pope in his younger days
was an ardent Alpine climber. A mon
ument is now being erected at Pietras-
tOrnina, in the extreme corner of the
Parthenian district, as reminder of his
exploits as a mountain tourist. In 1914
Gioachimo Pecci was at this place to
meet fellow prelate. The ruins of
the robber castle, that of the prince Of
Storno, which, according to the ira
ditions of time and place, no man had
ascended for many decades, aroused
the ambition Of Bishop Pecci. For the
sum of twenty paoli he secured the
loan of a shepherds suit, and, rugged
out in this style, he managed to reach
what seemed to be an inaccessible
height of two hundred and fifty meters.
Pecci was at that time an apostolic
legate. The monument commentaries
the anniversary of these exploits.

WHY PEOPLE WORSHIP GOLD.
'Tis a Relic of Barbarism and Has No
Basis In Actual Value.


Men are accustomed to regard gold
as the epitomization of wealth; to asso-
ciate it with ease and luxury; to con-
slider it the apotheosis of security and
power, says William Penn, Jr., in Blue
and Gray. This is merely a relic Of
barbaric ages, when monetary science
was unknown and bits of the rare
metals, coined or uncoined, were the
particular possessions Of kings and con-
querors. This popular ascription of in
herent value to the yellow metal, this
silly notion that it by some means pos
sesses regal right to rule the COM
merce of the world, is so ingrained in
human nature that most men recoil in
dismay when it is suggested that it's
use as money may be entirely discon-
tinued. While silver shared the throne
with gold it, too, was held in as much
and sometimes in greater reverence;
bat when, in 1878, kcerted action
condemned the white metal to take it's
place with corn and cotton and all the
other subjects of the golden king, the
power Of gold was doubled and made
absolute. Too many who regard gold
as a ruler by inherent right forget
that, during the long struggle for su-
premacy, silver was more than once
within an ace of degrading her rival to
the ranks, but at the end the gold
power triumphed. Had the result been
reversed the advocates of honest"
money might now be filed with horror
at the thought of 'fifty-cent dollars Of
gold instead of silver.
People who are Influenced by this
ancient form Of gold idolatry would do
well to consider that it is god of their
own creation, whose power may and
should be cut off whenever it becomes
