 Tom Brammel has closed his school at Prospect, and has again entered school at this place. We welcome him back to the town and to the scho0lroom.

MCDANIEL TIMES.

S. P. McDaniel and J. l.. Scott visited Haynes Sunday.
 w. c. Ferguson was in Cross county last week on business.
 s. P. & A. D. McDabiel will ship car of lumber to Phoenix, Arizona, in few days.
 Misses Beulah Williams and Mollle Hambleton visited friends in Lee county last week.
 o. E. Hambleion visited Lee county Wednesday, looking after his farming in- terests there.
 Hon. J. w. Jones, of Hardeman county, Tenn, was here one day this week, look ing after his landed interest.
 John Lindsey is favorably spoken of for magistrate of this district. If he will &C., cept he will make good one.
 Lightning struck the house of J. J. Hughes. jr., last Saturday night. No se- riouS damage was done more than the loss of chimney.
 J. B. Hodges and ". s. Heustess passed through to Forrest City "Wednesday. They report things wet in the way of farming in the Yocona settlement.
 The freight train killed fine yearliDg colt belonging to w. Evans last Friday. The colt was from Ferguson Wilkes, and its mother very fine mare. J. H. Mcdaniel, who has been in charge of his fathers farm for two years, has re- signed, and the old gentleman, John L., will look after his own business this year. Although times are harder in this coun- try than has been experienced since the drought of 'S1, yet the people have done more in the way of fencing, ditching and other repairs than has been done for many years. In fact they seem encouraged and expect to do their duty with the hope of | making good crop. One good crop would put this country where It was ten years ago, with fair prices. Considerable complaint is made by the subscribers of TIE TIMEs not getting their papers until it is week old. The people in the country come for their mail generally on Saturday evening, and as we | do not get the paper on Saturday after 1t
 is published it throws the paper in the country week late. Where the trouble ! lays we cannot say--either with the pub fisher or the postmaster at Forrest City. | We hope to get it earlier in the future.

 They sang He'll take the pill" "I'm on Pm on !' the tenor cried.
 And looked into my face My journey home. my journey home,"
 Was beloved by the base. Tt is for thee It is for thee-''
 Shrieked the soprano shriu. l knew not why they looked at me,
 And yelled "He'll take the pill" Then clutching wildly at my breast,
 Oh. Heaven My heart stood still "Yes, veal" cried, If that is best,
 Ye powersi LII take the pill" And half fainting. reached the door.
 And saw the starry dome. I heard them singing: When life is OCT,
 He'll take the pilgrim home."

Beware of Ointments for Catarrh
 that Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mu- cous surfaces. Such articles should never be used excep. on prescriptions from repu- table physicians, as the damage they Will do Is tenfold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney X Co, Toledo, O., contains no mercury and Is taken internally. acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Halls Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally, and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co Testimonials free. Sold by drug cists. Price 75 cents per bottle.

OF politics. when a Repub-
lican organ goes out OF the political rut
and discusses facts and conditions hon
estly IT invariably contradicts itself aud
gives the lie direct to its political
arguments.
We agree with the Press that uu-
doubtedly the number OF unemployed
has been greatly exaggerated. This is
due to Republican organs, like our
Philadelphia contem porary, which seek
to prove that the Democratic admins
tration is responsible for the hard times
OF last year, and consequently for the
number Of unemployed, and upon this
assumption aud To make their argument
more effective, exaggerate the number
OF idle men and endeavor 10 prolong
business depression by misrepresenta-
ton OF the policy OF the Democratic
party and It's purpose and effect.
The object Of the calamity bowler is
to make times harder by such exaggor-
alton or falsehood as the Press, whic h
stands in their front rank, calls atten-
ton TO in the paragraph quoted-whlch
was evidently not submitted to the poll

THE TROUBLE IS OVER.

Region Yesterdsy-sisvs Held To Court

heg'on festerdsy-sisvs Held TO Court
MANSFIELD, PA. January 30.-The
bitter cold wave which struck this val
ley yesterday was likely as responsible
as the deputies for preventing further
demonstration by the riotously inclined
miners. IL Is certain that last night
was absolutely free from disorder along
u e Bridgeville, Miller's Run, Tom Run
aud Pan Handle lines. The shiverlng
deputies patrolling all night did not see
single man who seemed by his action
10 have any hostile intention against the
upples. The mob which assembled
back OF Rldgeway mines yesterday
AFTERNOON got word that the deputies
we're watching them and like magic dis
appeared. Another crowd was seen
ABOVE Mcdonald. but this morning their
loot tracks had been elaborated by the
snow. Chief Deputy Sheriff Lowry
made an early tour OF tho works up the
Lake Erie lines and especially in the
Tom Run district. lie wired back that
there were number at work In the
mines and that confidence had been
generally restored. An operator said
that the presence OF the deputy sheriffs
was having wonderfully saiutary effect
upon the foreigners Had they
been In uniform, though, the
elect would have been much
greater and the destructive spirit
would have been curbed as quickly as IT
assumed the Rscendancy. There is lit
Ito doubt, however, that there still
exists grounds for uneasiness from the
very sullen silence OF the men them
selves. The fact that they show no dis
position TO return to work exhibit a
spirit Of defiance which may result in
further disorder when the deputy sher-
MS leave, and this causes some appre-
hension. The situation at present is
one OF martial quietness. With all the
larger pits guarded by armed deputies,
ana with the prompt arrest of all who
are inclined TO act disorderly, peace has
been thoroughly established The only
further plan proposed is to maintain the
present forces and guard until their
necessities force the Slavs to return to
work.

ONLY YEARLY PAPER IN TIE WORLD.
Printed by tho Hektosraph Process
within the Arctic Circle.
Boston Journal.

Boston Journal.
The Eskimo Bulletin IS tho most
unique newspaper in the world, and is
the only journal published within the
Arctic circle. II is printed at Cape
Prince Of Wales, Alaska, in latitude "A
degrees 40 minutes, and is issued only
once year.
The Bulletin is a small sheet, i2xs
inches, printed on one SIDE only, OF stiff,
white paper. IL is printed by the HEX
tograph process, which is simply &
method of multiplying copies OF wri-
ting. The writing is first made on pa
per with prepared ink, and is then i'm
pressed upon gelatine.
As there is practically but one mail 10
and from Cape Prince of Wales during
the year, one issue of the paper during
the year is quite sufficient
This curious little paper contains a
variety OF news, arranged under differ-
ent heads. In mirthful imitation Of the
daily papers I'm other localities, il
triumphantly carries at the head OF its
columns tho legend, Largest circula-
ton in the Arctic" and also the addi-
tlonal boast OF only yearly paper in
the world"
The headings are Local Items,
Rural Notes" Society" Fashion"
wharfage Notices" Whisky Ina the
Arctic" is the heading over an edi-
torial. Every scrap OF news ts like a
breath from the far North. As space is
scanty, condensation is fine art with
the editor. He displays quite a fund OF
humOr, too, and there is strain of zen
tie playfulness in nearly everything he
writes.
few lines tell OF feat that must
have been both difficult ane dangerous.
mid winter mail was carried from
Port Hope to ST. Michaels, a distance
OF 700 miles, on dog and deer sled. The
name OF the hardy mail-carrier is not
even mentioned. Think OF travelling
| 700 miles over the ice and snow OF an
arctic winter merely to carry the mail!
Those people must hunger for news.
In his solitary editorial tho editor
makes spirited protest against the
sale OF liquor 10 Indians. Directly
underneath this vigorous passage are
/ the following significant Items Of news:
"Eiuk-suh shot and killed Tugi-zins-
ya-Ook last fall. Both were drunk"
! The Bulletin has two illustrations.
one OF the school house and the other
OF scene on Bering Strait. The head
ing is also decorated with drawing Of
an Eskimo's head.
Mr.. Thornton, the missionary teacher
at Cape Prince OF Wales, has made a
profound study Of the Eskimo lam
/ guage, and is engaged i'm compiling a
dictionary OF the Aleut tongue. Dur
ing the progress OF his studies be has
made a singular discovery. The Greek
and Sanscrit were the only languages
heretofore known TO have three num-
bers- singular, plural and dual. Mr..
! Thornton has Discovered that the Aleut
language also has three numbers. This
/ he regards as discovery OF which
/ philosophers may well take note, as the
origin Of the Eskimo has been the sub
Jet OF much discussion and spccula-
/ ton.

SECRETARY CARLISLE SUSTAINED.
The District Court Decides That the
knights OF Labor Have No Standing Ina
tourl.

WAsHIScToN, ID. c., January DO
Judge Cox. OF the District supreme
Court, this morning declined TO grant
the application OF the Knights OF Labor
to compel Secretary Carlisle to show
cause why he should not be enjoined
from Issuing $50, 900. 600 OF bonds, as
proposed In his recent bond circular.
Judge Cox, In his decision, declared
tnat the h. OF l.. as an organization had
no standing In court TO maintain the in-
Junction, and his opinion also sustained
very fully Secretary Carlisle's right TO
Issue gold bonds. The X. Of l.. will ap.
peal. On general principles, he said.
no person eau legally begin action
against an officer OF the government
unless tho rights of property Of com
plainant or com plainants are involved.
The application Of the X. Of l.. as
serts that the members OF the Organi-
zation az citizens and taxpayers have a
right TO tho injunction. Should the
bonds be issued the interest will prac-
tlcaliy amount 70 a tax OF about one
dollar head In the country, thereby
resulting In an outlay OF $500, 600 for
the Knights OF Labor. according TO the
application filed yesterday. Now,
there never was per capita tax in this
country. No law now in force requires
the payment of direct tax, though
there was one in 1916. and another In
1861. Should such law exist the com
p'ainants have not shown that they are
property holders. They have no stand
ing In the court as taxpayers and no
legal right ia the question as to a bond
issue
The claim that the interests OF the
organization are different from the gem
eral public and would suffer more than
any other class (referrinR TO the claim
that many Knights were miners) by the
the Issue is a grievance OF discrimina-
ton, but IL gives no standing iu judicial
proceedings. As taxpayers or as miners
the complainants have no standing In
court.
Judge Cox then reviewed the laws
bearing on the question. and declared 1t
was unnecessary TO enter into n discus
sion Of the rights of the Secretary to
To make the issue. The Secretary had
legal authority 20 redeem notes when
presented and issue and sell the bonds
when necessary. General Secretary Nc
CURE, OF the knights, will appeal from
the decision to the District Court OF Ap-
peals, and from there eventually the
case may 20 10 the Supreme Court OF the

TeOTgo Iurner, The young man o!
Benwood, whose death resulted from
the terrible accident at the Wheeling
steel works last Monday, will be buried
at McMechen tomorrow afternoon. The
young man remained conscious till death
relieved him OF his suffering. With near
