In another column the annual state
ment of the State Mutual Life of
which Charles S. Hastings is the
general agent. Their statement
shows splendid gains in new bust
ness, surplus, dividends and MANY
other items, and this in the face of
the fact that 1894 was such a poor
financial year.

the Aetna Life Insurance Co., paid

VITAL STATISTICS.

George P. Moore, clerk of the vii.
lage school district, has completed
his annual census OF the district.
The census was compiled by Homer
Lanpher. There were $50 births
in 1894 and just 100 deaths. One
died at the advanced age of 95 and
another at 81. There were II be.
tween the ages OF 80 and 80, 10 be-
tween 70 and 70, 16 between 60 and
90, nine between so and SO. There
were 13 deaths from consumption
and the same number from heart
failure. Eight were taken away bv
apopIectic or paralytic shocks and
seven died of pneumonia. There
were only three deaths from typhoid
fever Considering the fact that
so much anxiety was felt about
typhoid fever the past year it
IS interesting to note that there were
only three fatal cases.

BUSINESS NOTES.

In the hard times, so-called, it is
gratifying to know of one firm that
is running, nights now to ill orders.
This is the case at the mill of O. V.
Hooker & Son. They have just COM
pleted steam plant for them selves
which is cutting $1,000 feet of lum-
Der daily and have recently furnished
steam power and machinery for a
sawmlll at Fairlee. They are now
building sawmil for Glover parties
and have taken contract to furnish
Littleton parties a SO horsepower
engine and boiler and a boiler for a
sawmill. They are also doing big
job for the Fiber Leather Company,
who are making extensive repairs
and changes at their mill. With
these large orders there is the usual
run OF extra work caused BY acct
dents at various mills. Their foun-
dry business is about double what it
was year ago.

The jury in the case OF Harry

The jury in the case OF Harry
Hayward, charged with the muir
der of of Miss Cling, at Minneap'
oils, Mimi, returned a verdict OF
guilty. Under the law OF Mime
sofa, the Judge will have no other
alternative bnt to eonsign the con
yict to the gallows. The girl was
murdered in pursuance of a con-
spiracy to collect an insurance pol
icy of 5000 upon her life, in favor
of a party from whom she had
borrowed about half that sum OF
money. The other consplratsrs,
as the evidence shows, there were
several of them, will doubtless be
accorded expeditions trials and
it is to be hoped, will be seyerally
convicted, as it was one OF the
most cold blooded and brutal
murders in the annals Of criminal
Jurisprudence.

PRESIDENTIAL BOOMS.-It

PRESIDENTIAL BOOMs.-1t is
supposed that an unusual number
Of presidential booms will be
ushered into existence in q brief
space of time. Carl Browne has
already hoisted the Coxey boom,
with Debs for Vice President.

inees of the "good roads," strikers,
labor agitators aud disaffected
elements generally. The new sill

cessfully brought forth from the
national political womb, but the
accOucheurs in attendance at the
delivery Of the silver patient, Drs.
h. P. Bland and e. M. Teller have
both declined the nomination, as
they have already scanned the
signs of the political horizon
and are sufficiently astute
to read from them, that they
could only lead ''forlorn hope"
The two great parties, of course,
will make nominations, one or the
other OF which, will most undoubt
eddy capture the presidential prize.
The prohibitionists will also place
standard bearers in the field. 1t
is certain, however, that all of the
presidential booms, no matter how
many, willcollapse likeapunctured
balloon on election day and that the
race will finally be narrowed down
to the Democratic aud Republican
nominees, with the chances We hope,
in favor of the former, as it is safe
to assume that the sober second
thought OF the American people
will have reasserted its potential
sway before that time.

il, Bloody Labor Riots.

The recent labor riots on the
New Orleans wharf, which termi.
mated in the shooting to death Of
several inOtfensive negroes and
the wounding of nearly a score of
others, were disgraceful in the ex-
IRENE and could never have occur
red, had not the Mayor Of the city
been derelict in his duty.
He was appraised in ample time
of the dangerous situation, to have
provided the necessary means to
to avert bloodshed aud protect the
lives Of the innocent men-negrOes
though they were who desired to
earn bread for themselves and
families by honest toll. But as
their aggressors were white men,
whose votes he needed in the ap.
preaching political campaign and
whom he could not on that account
offend with impunity, he procras
tinated until the law had not only
been violated, but the blood o.
innocent men deluged the levee.
1t is no excuse to say, that the
ship agents are to blame and are
responsible for the collision, be
cause of the importation of negro
laborers from Galveston. The
business of the ship owners, az
we'll as the commerce of the city
was gradually, but surely being
destroyed, BY the refusal Of the
white screwman to unload the
ships, unless they could dictate
their own terms.
Under this condition of affairs
the ship agents were justifable IL
importing labor from Galveston
or anywhere else. The strong arm
of the law should be invoked ant
every resource exhausted to pun
ish these dastardly murderers.
They should be made to under
stand that this is free country
in which every man has the righ1
to be protected in the exercise O
an honest avocation.
While it is conceded right
that all laborers can suspend worl
at their option, they must not bt
permitted to interfere with other!
who take their places.

Can Be Accomplished Without
BlOOd-shed.

ssThe machine has had its day in
Louisiana. We are going to have
fair elections in that State, and
one year from next April a just
location of the voting places, an
honest ballot and a fair count, If
we have to fight for it. The ma
chine which controls the State
politics must give the people a
chance, or it will have to go. The
desire for honest lections is be-
coming a fashion in the South,
and that fashion has reached Lou
isiana."
The above utterances are re-
ported to have fallen from the lips
Of the immaculate, angelic and
sanity Henry Clay Warmoth, in
Washington City, on his recent
visit thitber, in behalf of the pay
ment of the earned sugar bounty.
While the people of this State are
unanimous in their expressed de-
sire for the freedom and purity OF
the elective franchise, they will
agree with US, that the originator
and chief beneficiary of returning
board frauds aud arch conspiratol
against a free ballot and honest
count, is the last man in the State
to attempt to educate the people
to revolutionize piratical system
of carrying elections instituted by
himself. There is no more cOrrup
and venal epoch in the history o
this State, than the Warmothea'
era and it i'll becomes him, WIN

Sacrificing the Country's Credit.

One of the worst features of the
formidable opposition arrayed
against the administration and its
efforts at financial reform during
the last Congress, has been the
very unfortunate effect this oppo'
sition has had upon the credit OF
the nation abroad. The very pro.
nounced disposition towards abso.
Lutte free. silver coinage, which is
but another name for silver
standard; the successful opposi-
ton to the Government guaran.
teeing the payment Of its bonds

ed by somelegislators to deprive the
Government of the means of meet.
ing it's present gold obligations,
have thoroughly alarmed the hold
ers of American securities abroad;
hence it is not surprising that
there should be a display of anx-
iety to unload such securities.
The steady decline in American
securities in the markets of Europe
has been one Of the most interest
ing phases of financial affairs for
the past few months. This de-
cline cannot be attributed merely
to Encouragement in the case OF
various railroads, but must be
placed to the credit Of the grow
ing distrust as to the financial sta
bility of the United States aud to
the gross perversion Of the tinan
. cial legislation in Congress.
How can we expect foreigners
to have any confidence in the per-
, manence of our institutions, when
, they see prominent members Of
!, Congress prepared to sacrifice the
credit of the Government in order
satisfy some petty luminosity en-
5 tertained toward the President.

who are prepared to ruin thu
country to increase the value O
their mining property in the West
of silver fanatics, who believe tha
$ all that is necessary to make al
: money perfectly sound is the Gov

who are willing to do anything tt
make political capital; of bimetal

prepared to sacrifice anything II

Z astonishing that foreigners shoult

u can securities.
II This withdrawal of foreign capl
: tai hitherto interested in the Uni
: ted States, has been one of tn
v most serious phases Of the fnan
cial situation, as it has been this
more than any other cause, whic
