hundred. Captain Cavanagh n his
men, Duff was an absentee, bowled
well. Quinn and Palladeau had no
excellent scores. The Captain recovered
his form and ratified the pins for III. His
team won the game by S4 pins.
The second bout was better than the
first. Captain Burns was in shape, and
went over the average, while Barney

highest total of the night. Quinn slugged

A movement is ON foot to organize
n Republican club in Middleburgh.
This should not be delayed as the
State League of clubs meets in Har-
risburg on Sept. 5th. Delegates
should be chosen in order TO have
representation in the State League
meeting. Our country is laboring
and suffering under n financial de-
preston such as has not been known
in the history of our country. All
citizens who love prosperity and are
anxious to lend helping hand to
restore business activity and open
the avenues of trade, should not
hesitate to unite in IA progressive
movement. We want the idle mills
to be pouring forth smoke from the
chimneys. We want to see the farm
or get fair price for his products,
and we want to see business revive.
Remember the adage, I'm union

publican club spring into being.

The Labor Problem Solved.

The recent labor trouble is pcr-
picking philanthropsts aud social
reformers. 1t is evident that some
change i'll the present social system
or i'll the laws of the nation must be
made in order to avoid these sharp
conflicts between labor and capital.
Edward Bellamy, some years ago,
wrote his book, Looking Back
ward" In this work, he tells his
readers what kind of social sys-
TEN he would like to see in 1909.
His scheme works we'll enough in
theory, but in practice it must
prove to be dismal failure. Bell
amy would put all the Instruments
of production in the hands of the
common government. No money
would be used rs none would be ne
cessary under his system. Every
man must make fresh start in the
world and his success will depend
upon his energy yand economy. At
death his inheritance will be turned
into the hands OF the government
These are few of the many chan

ciates suggest for improving the SO.
