No Compromise for Republicans.
There has been an ill-considered appeal

DOWN THE RIVER.
How Labor Day Was Enjoyed by
Many Thousands.


Labor day was fttingly and memorably
celebrated down the river yesterday. Big
crowds Of knights, with their wives and
children, spent the day at River View and
Marshall Hall. The day was perfect and
the outing will long be remembered. At
both resorts the committees on arrange
during the day the crowds took advantage
of the opportunity Of exchanging visits at

pavilions were well patronized, and the
young people made merry. IT.
Severai thousand people took the trip to
Marshall Hall; in fact, it was better pa
tronized than River View. 1t was because

He then asked that Sewall be pulled
down and Watson substituted. He said:

wApoRT1oN OF THE OTHER HALF" LIVE

People in general are so busy in this world that they know very little about how the great majority of other people are living. Especially are we ignorant about the "Mountain Whites,' the two million and half of people who by the great tides of population sweeping vest ward have been "passed by." These mountaineers occupy a great belt of country 800 miles in length and 300 miles in breadth in the southern part of the great Appalachian chain. They are a quaint people, patriotic to the core, but the mass of them densely ignorant and mlny of them grossly immoral. Some description of the life of these hardy folk will be given at the Sunday evening ser vice in the Congregational church, March 22, at 7.3O o'clock. The testimony of those who are regular attendants at these meetings is that they are. very interesting. Y-u are cordially invited to this meet ing.

 Aa 9rriaeut happened to William C. Johnson OBI Saturday morLing of last week vt his mill in S"uth Center district. IIp was under Jhc maiD floor adjusting a 5,lt, when he clipped on the wet timber aud in putting cut his hand to save him. self, it was caught in the bcltipg and the lrm WAS drawn over the pulley up to the shoulder. His coolne5s and presence of miud did not desert him and his loud calls attracted the attention of Lester Coleman, his assistant, who with the help of D. (. Bacon extricated him from his perilous situation. As it was they found him drawn off from his feet and hanging by his shoulder. Had there been a full head of water on the wheel it would seem as if he must have been crushed to death. He was carried to the house. Drs Smith and Sunderland were called and an examination showed the arm broken above and close to the elbow. There were no internal injuries and with pat fence, good care and time in which to do it we hope to see him on his feet again as hale and hearty as ever. Mr Johnson says 'lJ's when a fellow gets into some great trouble he is given to realize what host of friends he has" And this brings to mind one of the sayings of Dr Abbott in the good lecture he gave in Newtown tbis winter: "iu the country we have frieuds-in the city, acquaintances."
