to drive the beasts out of the country.

his experience. to % New York friend in
letter as follows:
I'VE jumped one, and away went the
dogs lickety-scoot, and yelping to make
the cacti dance. They yelped all day,
and next morning l found them lying
down on the trail of the coyote, less
than half a mile from the ranch house.
Their feet We're sore, and l carted them
in on a blackboard. 1t was a month
before they got in shape again. Then
took three Of the dogs and started the

with him around the ranch, going about
five hours. Then l went out with
four dogs and called off the three, and
set the four after the beast. Away they

others. They ran till morning, and then
I started the last four The coyote saw
the fresh dogs coming, for he had
stopped, but he didn't stop long. The
four dogs were the biggest and uglicst
in the lot-Reg, Mart, Set and Kineo.

JAMES BURNHAM HOVEY.

The news of the death of Mr.. J. b.
Hovey came as surprise to his many
friends in this city Sunday, for none
expected that he was seriously ill. The
cause of his death seemed to be gen
eral collapse which had its start less
than two weeks before. The death
occurred at IL o'clock, a. m., Sunday,
the 25th instant, at his home on Third
street.
Mr. Hoyey was born at Londonderry,
New Hampshire, July /, 1896, hence
would have been II years of age at his
next birthday. He was married in 1910
to Miss Virginia Rowland, of this coun-
ty, who, together with a daughter
Miss Hovey, and V, i. Hovev, survive
him. The son is now living at Los An
geles, California
Mr.. Hovey was always very public
spirited man, of great intelligence, and
he possessed genial disposition which
drew men to HIM. In the late COS and
early '1O's he was the senior mem Der of
one of the largest firms that ever oper-
ated in Marietta, that of Hovey, Iums,
Batelle IL Co., wholesale grocers

cery business, and afterward in the
wholesale trade with c. Shenkberg
Mr.. Hovey spent a year at Sioux City
with Mr.. Shenkberg; then returned tt
Marietta. He established the Citizen:
Bakery and put the same on good
business basis.
For the past few years Mr.. Hovey
was in the insurance business.
Mr.. Hovey was one of the most
prominent Masons in Ohio; he had a
fondness for the Order which showed
it to stand high in his regard. He had
run the whole gamut of degrees, and
had filled Il number of the chairs with
dignity and honor. For three terms
he was Grand High Priest of the Grand
Chapter of Ohio, and within year
past he was the recipient of superb
medal bestowed by the Grand Chapter.
He was Il membe of American Union
Lodge No. l, American Union Chapter,

The statement of manufacturer is
not convincing proof of merit.

Now, supposing you had n bad back, IL

experiment on it? You will read of
many so-called cures, but they come
from far away places. It's different
when the endorsement comes from

have had to take medicine all the
time to counteract the effect of the
chemicals used. l have had backache,
sharp singing pains in the loins, my

The Conf Miners, strike.

The great strike OF coal miners in Penn
sylvania. Ohio and West Virginia threat
ems to embarrass the whole business of
the north and west if it continues week
longer. In. this glorious southern part of
the country a coal famine means nothing
very serious. The pine forests are full. Of
frst-class fuel which can be had for the
cutting. and where coal is now being used
all that will be necessary to do will be to
lower the crate bars in the furnaces and
do a little more firing. 1t may he said
that in the southeastern section there is
nothing in the coal situation to worry
about.
The great upheavals among the laborers
in the coal mines, like the present one,
are primarily caused by the importation
Of Hungarian and other cheap foreign la
Dor, and negro labor from the south. into
the mining sections TO compete with the
labor already there. The effect OF the i'm
portations is the lowering of wages. In
deed, that is the very object which the
operators have in view when they bring
in the new element. The wages Of coal
miners have been driven down until the
average pay is about % cents a day, out
of which is taken So to 8 month for
house rent, and the pittance remaining
must be traded out at the commissarics
Of the coal companies. The object Of the
present strike Is to raise the scale Of
wages from 81 cents to 60 cents per ton.
There are among the present strikers
many negroes who were taken north to
supply the places Of striking white min
ers in 1884. 1t was supposed at that time
by the mine operators that the colored
labor would remain true to the employers
then and thereafter; but the blacks have
now Joined the whites, whom they to some
extent opposed three years ago. One of
the black miners. speaking to a newspa-
per man few days ago, said he was
born a southern slave, and had worked as
a slave, but he was never treated by his
master as he had been treated in the Penn
sylvania coal mines. 1t is a well-known
fact that the miners of Pennsylvania have
been virtually slaves for years. They are
never able to accumulate money enough to
get away, hence are compelled to live and
die in the mines. They are the white
slaves of the north While their masters,
the republican coal and iron barons. are
reveling in the profits given them by re-
publican legislation. and pretending to be
the friends of the poor, oppressed negroes
Of the south, they make their miners work
for barely enough to keep soul and body
together Still the miners will continue to
vote the republican ticket!
This strike of miners will be a serious
impediment in the way of President Nc
Kinleys prosperity boom. as far as the
north and west are concerned, but it will
not make matters materially worse in the
south.
