That the Fairbrother editorial

Daniels goes almost without

That is a matter Of opinion.
People who claim TO know his his

men who befriended his widowed
mother in the dark days Of want

whose kindness and political in

and educated, but against whom
Mr.. Josephus Daniels, attorney
at law, great journalist and all

bitter in his opposition; too violent
in his dennnciation. Politics is

WHY IS FTP


cigarettes to boys under sixteen
years Of age; and yet the chill
dren are still smoking in this
town. How is thiss-Exchange
Easy enough-easy enough.
No mans appetite was ever APP
peased by legislation. Boys I'M
der seventeen years of age who
smoked cigarettes last week, will
smoke them next week, if there is
nothing in the way but a law
which prohibits men from selling
them to the boy. The law only
gives the people a chance TO lie;
to say that they are over a certain
age: it only whets the appetite Of
the festive kid who will get the
cigarette at all hazards. There is
a common law which says that
no one shall steal-but the water.
melon patch is visited regularly
by the small boy, and he will
have them.
There are laws which sly that
habitual drunkards shall not be
allowed to purchase whiskey-but
it IS always true that the greater
the drunkard the more whiskcy
he consumes. He may not get it
direct-but he employs some one
to secure it for him. Suppose a
boy in Durham or HilIsboro, but
ten years old, wants q cigarette.
How easy ii is for him to hand
his nickel to a gentleman who
feels no responsibility in u moral
way, and the gentleman buys the
cigarette and the lad smokes it
In a boys life there is no ambition
like that which laughs at defiance
If you tell him he can't do so and
90, he will do it-or, 10 use hi
own parlance--"bust."
The RECORDER has no conf
dence in the cigarette law. i
may not be violated so much, bu
its intent is void. II the law sale
arrest the boy found smoking
cigarette, even then he would
sneak up the alley, hide in thu
barn, take quiet strolls--he would
smoke If he wanted 10. There il
but one view Of the case that car
ries any respect, and that is, th,
law is in favor Of better morals
and in opposing their use recog
mics the fact that cigarettes ar,
immoral.
The only way TO get rid Of III,
cigarette and its deadly effects up
Oh the youths, who are enticed b,
seductive opiates and indecent
pictures into buying them, is 4

LAST YEARS SALARIES.

The salary of the city clerk, which
has been fixed this year at $3.50, was 300
last year.
The amount of discount allowed on
taxes paid before Aug. Is has been re-
duced from 10 to per cent, which means
the saving of considerable sum.
Last year the city treasurer was al
lowed two per cent. on moneys disbursed;
his year he is allowed one-half of one
per cent. on amounts up to $3.50, and
not thing for disbursements above that
amount.
A further saving is made in the matter
of police. Last year the city marshal was
the day policeman, and received $50 per
month, the night policeman receiving the
same amount. This year the city marshal
is night policeman and receives $50 per
month, while the day policeman receives
500 per year.
The salaries of supervisor of schools
and fire department officers remain the
same as last year

Opinion of an Expert,

The great curse of alcoholic liquors is
that their use creates a morbid appetite
"a constantly increasing desire for
more-in many cases. Many men who
began to use alcoholic liquors in great
moderation find themselves gradually
oIa,ins iaIsor anu la1ser Quantities.
Liquor drinking is one of those things
of which it may truly he said that GIN
crease of appetite grows by what it feeds
on. Since this is unquestionably the
case, may it not be exceedingly probable
that the greater the percentage of alco-
hol contained in any particular kind of
liquor the more rapidly will a morbid
appetite for stimulation be cultivated?
must therefore give it as my opinion
that the least injurious of all alcoholic
liquors, and therefore the one that is
the safest and the best for men to drink,
is the one which contains the smallest
percentage of alcohol William II.
Hammond

in a short time he has a mere skeleton.
He had no appetite, and it was hard work
to make him eat enough to keep him alive.
A few weeks later we had his hip lanced,
and following this five other eruptlons
broke out, making eight running sores IN
all. We did all we could for him, but he
grew weaker every day, although we had
three OF the best physicians. AS last re-
sort we were prevailed upon by relatives
who had taken Hoods Sarsaparilla with
beneficial results to give the medicine
trial. We got one bottle about the hrst
of March, and he had taken the medl-
cine only few days when his appetite be-
gan to improve. When he had AIKEN one
bottle he could move about Little WIFI
his crutches, which he had not been able
to use for the preceding three months. we
continued faithfully with Hoods oarsapa-
rilla, and in s tx month s he was
Able to be Dressed
and go about the house without the
crutches. He has now taken Hoods Sar-
saparilla regularly for eighteen months.
and for the past six months has been with
out the crutches, which he has outgrown
by several inches. The sores haVeall healed
with the exception of one which is rapidly
closing, only the scars and an occasional
limp remaining as reminders OF his suffer
ing Hoods Sarsaparilla in his case has
truly done wonders, and he is daily gain
ing in flesh and good color He runs about
and plays as lively as any child We feel
an inexpressibe Joy at having our boy re-
stored to health and we always speak IN
he highest terms of Hoods Sarsaparilla."

THE SCHOOL COMMITTEE.
Annual Meeting of the Board-E. w
Lord Reelected Supervisor.

The first meeting of the school com
mittee for 1895 was held at the aldermen's
room last Monday afternoon. The full
board present, including the newly
elected member, II. Fremont Maddocl<s
The OF her members We're Messrs. knoWl-
ton, Lord, Richardson and Grindal.
Organization was effected by the elect
ing, by ballot, of chairman. -Four votes
We're cast; }. +. knowlton had three; c.
II. Grindal had one, and Mr.. knowlton
was declared elected.
In view of the discussion at the alder
mems meeting last Saturday over "su-
perintendent" and ''superVisor,' Mr..
Lord suggested hat in voting, ballots be
cast reading supervisor or superin
tendent" so that the final action of the
aldermen might conform to the present
action of the school board.
1t was contended that under the new
law this could not be done. The board
then proceeded o the election of a super
visor. AS in the election of a chairman,
only four votes We're cast; f. w. Lord
had three; one was blank, and Mr.. Lord
was declared elected. The supervisor is
clerk of the board er oticio
Several amendments to the rules of the
committee We're made. Under the "duties
of the supervisor section was so
changed that hereafter the teachers of
the high and commercial schools will be
elected by the board instead of being
appointed by the supervisor.
Section 30 was so changed hat certif-
icates to teach may be renewed from
year to year by Endorsement, but no GER
titicate granted previous to the adoption
of these rules shall be Reimbursed, except
those of teachers who have taught in the
public schools of Ellsworth at least two
years, and in grades the equivalent of
those for which certificates are desired.
In other respects the rules of the board
are he same as last year.

Don't Ask Me to Drink.

Make ne boy again, happy and bright.
Experience would teach me the pitfalls to shun
In the new life race that would then run,
The transient enjoyment with convivial
friends
And all the mock pleasures the social glass
lends
Iwoula shun ere they led to insanity's brink.
Don't ask me To drink. brother; don't ask me
to drink.
Backward, flow backward, O tide OF the years.
Sink in oblivion the past with its tears,
The lost opportunities, mental anguish and
pain
Take them, and let them live over again.
Take them-redcehl all the losses sustained,
By some great boom in the new life reSained.
Then let me, oh, let me from temptation
shrink:
Don't ask me to drink. brother; don't ask me
to drink.
