majority of those who have ceased to work are 1 honorable, law-abiding men, and are anxious | to avoid all participation in or countenance lawlessness. l earnestly appeal to them to use their influence with all of their associates
 who may be disposed to violate the law, to
 keep within it's bounds, and. if need be, to
 form voluntary associations of their own, to
 see that they be not disgraced or held G. sponsible for any act of violence on the part
 of any of their me mbers.
 earnestly appeal to all laboring men to re- member that the struggle in which they are engaged Is one which was not brought about by any fault or act of the people who are suf-
 fering from an interruption Of their highways, or by any act or difference with the owners of the highways; and that neither the people nor the owners of the highways have any power or influence to bring about the result which is desired by those who have quit work The public conscience is shocked and the people
 amazed at our own citizens being led to work injury and suffering upon countless thou sands, when it is without justification and cannot be productive of any good to any human being.
 It is proper also that I should solemnly warn them that the suffering of women and children, the destruction of the fruits of labor of the farmer and the artisan, the crippling of the industrial pursuits of our people, and the consequent loss of employment bank ruptcy and ruin and loss of confidence, with the attendant disorder and lawlessness re- sultng from the effort to blockade our high ways, are already laid to their doors by the people of Alabama. Already excited and suffering communities are demanding to be led against those who indict such injury upon them. Every duty of good citizenship and every instinct of humanity demand that the f pcorparatfvely small number of our citizens
 who 1ryrS been operating our highways, when compare dyI+1> >the citizens who use them, should put aside passr6rind revenge and aid
 in restoring the blessings of-paee and order to our commonwealth.
 Is it too late for me to appeal to those -WGo
 have it in their power to relieve so much of
 suffering and injustice to return to their usual pursuits, and thus end a struggle in which, if continued, they must be crushed, because it is not just, and because 1t involves oppression upon the innocent and suffering and wrong upon the helpless? THOS. G. JONES. By the Governor:

GOSSIP ABOUT WRITERS.

Always Thirst for Personalities of Lit

 'The public has nothing to do with the misfortunes of authors" said Dr. Johnson. Possibly the stern old nor alist was theoretically correct, though his sentiment is one in which the public has never shared, says the Scottish Review. It is doubtless true that a literary work should be able to stand upon its own merits apart from the life history of it's author, but from the glim- mering dawn of letters until it's present noontide splendor, the world has ever taken a deep interest in the fortunes and misfortunes of authors, and will continue to do so while literature en- dures.
 Abyssinia" with pleasure and profit, even though we do not know that the wonderful story was written by John son in extreme poverty for the purpose of gaining small sum that he might give his mother decent funeral, but surely our knowledge of that fact will supply additional interest in the pe- rusal, and lead us to esteem the man as well as the author. Nor will the im- mortal dictionary be less useful. if we remember that the greater portion of the money which it brought to Johnson was expended in supporting the strangely incongruous household of pensioners which he had brought to his ark at Bolt court-Levet, the ruined physician; Frank, the emancipated slave; Anne Williams, the blind terma- gant, and Mrs. Desmoulins, the help less widow-and whose vagaries he en- dured uncomplainingly for many years.
 It may be wrong for the public to in- quire as to these petty details, and even to take an interest in Dr. John sons own Olives of the Poets," in which many misfortunes are related, but literary biographies will be writ ten and read with avidity until some vast cataolysm destroys the foundations of society. Indeed, the thirst for per sonal gossip about literary men has in- creased so much of late that it is be- coming positively alarming and me- diocre authors have learned the art of utilizing this craze for log-rolling pur- poses.

MIR. OLIVER CHALIFOUx

 BoWMAN's BOND.
 The statement that MT. Oliver Chalifoux was one of the signers of Peyton G. Bow mans bond was an error. The AeE- HERALD reporter was told so by message over the telephone from the sheriff's office. The informant was 10 doubt misled into making the statement by the fact that MT. Chalifoux was spoken of in that connec- ton, and was asked to help make the bond hich he declined to do. He is a business man, and makes 1t point and matter of business never to sign bond of any char acter.

BREAKING OF RECORDS
What Science Gan Do in This Line
 When She Tries Hard.

Steamship captains, horse owners, bicy- cle riders, and lot of other people are making strenuous and untiring efforts to "break the record" The great public looks on at the game with good-natured interest.
 Once in while eober science does little record smashing on her own occount. One of her latest and great achievements is the discovery and application of process for artificially digesting food. so that it is absorbed immediately by the system, without imposing the least labor on weak stomach. This food is called Paskola. It restores the debli- tated and gives fat to the thin, because it is starchy. Only starches add real, solid, lasting flesh to the body. Oils and fats don't and never will.
 MT. H. o. Manhood of Emlenton, Ve- mango county, Pennsylvania, says: CT was so weak aud run down that thought I would have to give up my business. l could not eat nor sleep. After one bottle oi Paskola l began to gain at once, and 1 have gained over fifteen pounds in less than three weeks, and l now feel like new man..
 No wonder. s
 Mrs. s. c. Stonch of Wellington ard Dauphin streets, Philadelphia, writes: ''I have been sick nearly three years, at times suffering terrible burning pains in my back ana then cold Tn the lower part or the bowels. Sometimes 1 thought 1 should die. All this time l was constipated. When first began taking Paskola I was tempted to give it up,. thinking it would do me no good, because I had taken so much medicine. 1 feel Paskola beginning to do me good, and today took longer walk than have been able to take in three years. l am much stronger. am taking my fifth bot tie of Paskola, and 1 eat almost everything now. l am 56 years old, and was always active, having worked hard.'
 Paskola may be bought of any reputable druggist. An interesting pamphlet on foods and digestion will be mailed free, on application to The -Digested Food Co.,, 80 Reade street, New York.

Lack of War News

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 81
The state department is seriously
concerned at the lack of official
news at this critical juncture OF the
China and Japan trouble, nothing
having been received from our
representatives in those countries
since the brief dispatch of Sunday
from Mr.. DENLY, Charge d. AfTaires
at Pekin, stating that hostilities
had broken out and that war was
inevitable.
Secretary Gresham has accord
iugly cabled to Mr.. DENLY and to
Minister Dunn, at Toxic, directing
them to promptly report to him
any happenings of importance,
and it is expected that the depart
ment will be better informed here
after. 1t appears that the British
government has had trouble in
communicating with it's diplo-
matte representatives in China
and Japan, and there is ground for
suspicion that obstacles are pur-
posely being interposed to that
freedom of communication be-
tween neutral government and
its diplomatic representative
which is guaranteed by interna-
tional laws.
Should this be the case, the gov.
eminent responsible is likely to re-
ceive a severe remOnstrance.

Endorsed by the Doctors.

At the last meeting OF the West Texas
Medical Association the following reSolu-
ton was offered by Doctor Geo. CuppleS:
Whereas, at this time the taxpayers of
San Antonio are called on to vote on
the question of establishing a system OF
sewerage, and that this measure II
defeated now will be indefinitely post
poned to the great detriment of our COM
munity, be 1t
Resolved, that in the opinion Of the
West Texas Medical Association the
establishment of system of sewerage Is
an imperative necessity; that the urgency
for the accomplishment is continually In
creasing, and the failure TO carry IL at
this time will add to the loss OF life from
preventable diseases as Is proven by the
mortuary records for the past three
months: the loss being mostly among
small children caused by zymOtic dis
eases.
The abov a resolution was unanimously
adopted. j. L. FITZsIMoN, NJ. ID.

ON THE LOITER.

A NIGHT SCENE IN SAN ANTONIO.
OF San Antonio there can be
said something perhaps not appli-
cable to any other city in the
state-that for the twenty-four
hours of each day, the life and
hustle in the town keeps up with
out intermission. By that of course
I do not mean that the same peo-
pie are upon the streets all day and
all night, and that the whole town
is one confused scene of business
from dawn of one day to daybreak
of the next, but that the activity
upon the streets during the day
and during the night is very much
equal, and that there is as much
hustle going on in San Antonio
throughout the night as in any
other Texas town throughout the
day.
From that indistinct mingling of
night with day, called dawn, when
the white aproned butchers sound
the reveille for the days activity,
until that time of eve when the
east side foundry whistle gives
vent to a despairing noise that re-
sembles the yodel Of a coyote in the
chapparal, the activity of the town
is confined chiefly to the east side,
or that portion of the city east of
Military plaza. At that time
the stores and shops, with
few exceptions, close their doors
and as soon as the great
stream of private and public
conveyances that often threatens to
blockade Commerce street, has
cleared that narrow thoroughfare,
the east side of town falls into that
customary nocturnal lull which is
interrupted only now and then by
a few hacks, group of people to or
from some entertainment or the
wild dash Of the "hurry up" wagon
on some urgent police call. After
the midnight hour and before the
butchers begin to liven mat
tiers up, the streets, except
for the monotonous click of
the street sweeping machine, are
absolutely still. A few late round
ers from the other side of town
sometimes break the quiet by their
boisterous talk and laughter, but
excepting that, the whole vicinity
is wrapped in deepest silence.
Even the plaza hotel, where jolly
drummers congregate until long
after the midnight hour, trading
yarns and petrified jokes, is deadly.
still. The noisy bell boys are sit
ting around in chairs, and the very
bald night clerk is resting
his forehead on the edge of
the counter with the bald spot
turned up to the electric arc light
so that the reflection much resem-
bles the binding glare of lOcomo-
tive head light.
On the west side Of town, or as
the phrase goes, "across the creek"
things are decidedly different. The
lull over here has been during
the day. The institutions in this
region are of nature, as a usual
thing, to commend their greatest |
patronage after the day light hours
have passed. 1t is true they are open
from morning until night; still |
scarcely any business is done by |
them. The scope OF the average
trans San Pedro business is to af-
ford recreation end amusement, |

The Outlook Favorable.

Last night was one Of glare and torch. Both political parties were out in full force The democrats had parade. the feature of which was group of burrOs, true types of democracy. If num- bers and features of enthusiasm count for any thing, the republicans had ths bess of it in parade, and if the attend ante and enthusiasm Ut the rural meet irgs count for aught, the republicans had the best of 1t. At the Ilme that the Eber- Nutter hall was half full the opera house was as full as any time during this campaign. The procession of the republicans was twice as big as that of he democracy. These facts are straws that show that great victory awaits the republicans tonight.
 Governor Murphy surprised many of his hearers with his abilities as speak CT. Although he claims to be a plain
 business man, he is really eloquent, and
 made very taking address. He evil d-ntly made splendid impression. Every few minutes he was not only ap- plauded, but cheered. He talked of Arizona mainly, though he said good
 deal on national affsi s also. His claim is that If elected he will do all possible
 for Arizona. Whether elected or not, the north and south railroad will be
 brought through Tucson.
 A. J. Doran, introduced by Chair, man Freeman as ''that old Hassayamp- or. J i'm Uoran," made short but excel
 lent speech. He promises to represent
 Pima county, If elected, quite as we'll as
 any county in tue territory. He IS in
 favcr of the repeal of the merchants l license.
