Laid to Rest.

The funeral of Mrs. D. T. Jones
took place from the public hall in
Carlin Wednesday afternoon at 9
o'clock, the Rev. w. H. 1. Houghton
officiating.
The deceased was born in the State
OF Connecticut, but spent the greater
portion Of her early life at New York
Mills in the State of New York. She
was married in the State Of New York
and about 1879 she and her husband
and family removed to the State of
Nevada, living in Palisade and Carlin
up to the time of her death.
The deceased was highly respected
by all who knew her and her death
has left void that will be hard to
fill. A husband, one son and a mar
ried daughter, Mrs. S. p. Howard,
survive her.
The funeral services we're attended
by nearly the entire population of
Carlin, and many friends of the fami-
ly came form Palisade to pay the last
sad token Of respect to one whom
they had respected and loved during
her life.
The beautiful burial service of the
Episcopal church was impressively
rendered by the Rev. w. H. l. Hough.

BKEAK THn CHAINS

There is much to be said in behalf of
the rank and file in labor organizations
VINO have been forced against their will
to follow the leadership of the Dictator
DebS.
Every man lives in little world of
his own, circumscribed by environments
which are narrow in comparison with
the world at large.
The workingman, whatever his
sphere, has his home and social circle.
His wife and children mingle with
similar status.
When tyranny arises which threat
ems social ostraci SIN, it is proposition
to blot his world from his daily life.
When in addition personal violence
and possible loss OF life is imminent, it
is not surprising that seeming unan-
unity can be created in labor circles.
Remove the social boycott and intimi-
dation or physical violence, and there is
not one i'll ten of those who have desert
ed their posts who would not be glad to
return to their positions today and earn
livelihood for their families.
1ney have been forced into their pres
ent position by a social and physical
tyranny more despotic than the iron heel
Of any deSpotism i'll the world.
They are entitled to sympathy, sup
port and encouragement in their natural
and manifest desire to break the bonds
which chain them to the Jpggernaut
invented by the ambition of lawless and
dishonest men like Debs, who levy trib-
Ute upon the laborer that they may live
in luxury and notoriety.
Debs the Dictator Iuxuriating at a
palace hotel at Chicago at the expense
of laboring men is one thing.
Debs in Jail, indicted for conspiracy,
murder and treason, is different indi-
vidual.
The United States grand jury meets
in Chicago on Tuesday.
If it does its perfect work, the scales
will be stripped from the eyes of the
dupes who have been led to think that
Eugene V. Debs is an apostle of light,
when in reality he is only a common
mlscreant, seeking to secure fame and
fortune by the destruction of the home
of the American workingman.
The reaction against this criminal an
archist will be greater than his tempo
rary assumption of omnipotent power.

strongly supported, and in the matter
of argument its advocates have greatly
the advantage. The only reason urged
against it is that it would be impossible
to get out the vote at the state elections
if there were no county officers to be
elected. This is mere unsupported as
sumption. Special elections called to
select representatives In congress to fill
vacancies within the present year show
by the deep interest taken and the large
vote polled, falling but little short of
the vote cast in presidential years, that
the stimulus of strife for local office is
not needed to bring out the vote in a
contest for the larger Offices. Aside
from this demonstration. the reason
given for opposing the change is not
creditable to American craftsmanship.

1t would result in diminished vote in
the local contests.

REALISM IN LITERATURE.

There is too much of the actual in the
literature of today. Science alone has
the right to expose the secret doingS of
Nature. to strip the flesh from every
skeleton. moral and material. and ex-
hibit 1.-THE cruel tooth and bloody claw
of Evolution at her daily tasks. The
modern novel too often tries to ASSUME
the functions of a teacher of material
facts, or of spiritual truths clothed with
material symbols. Romance should re-
turn to its proper field and strive to give
recreation and rest to the minds and
bodies of men aud women weary of the
labor of active life and daily duties.
This generation needs no instruction.
1t knows too many things-intinitely
too many of natures truths-already.
Let US be amused. if you please. Nat.
ure, and fate, and destiny, and luck
have all combined in one horrible real
istic conspiracy to make humanity
miserable. Poverty grins at us out of
the purple gloom of midnight. Disease
threatens us from our open window,
where malaria. forming frightful mar
riage with the perfume of the opening
rose, enters, unbidden, to the secret re-
cesses.of life. The champagne of exist
ence inspires only for an hour: its SUBJ
sidence sickens for a day. The loving
smile of onr friend is hourly transmitted
into the calculating grin which courts
some gain from our love. In Realism
the upright aud downright actuality of
human life-there is little that is sweet

But the Imagination! All, God knew
what He was about when He called
into existence that immortal essence
and gave it into the keeping of man.
He said: Il will give as ac.ualities to
my children these for their earthly
training-hatred, envy, malice. false
hood, deceit. hypocrisy, perpetual pain.

with her thorns; my servant, Hope,
shall amuse them with countless lies;

presence. My creatures shall shake

wine of life shall make them drunken
and mad with purposeless ambition.
They shall possess wealth. and Il shall
