4 GOOD BILL.

Congressman Brundr1dge
has introduced a bill in con-
gress which has for its OBJ
jeCt the prevention of the
government granting license
to wholesale liquor dealres,
when the people of a county
vote it out. AS it is now, the
wholesale dealers can sell
regardless of the voice Of
the people, and this very
fact has been a powerful
influence in favor of licenseing
saloons If the wholesale
man could be stopped by a
majority vote, many coun-
ties which nov vote "for
license" and have saloons,
would "go dry"
The idea that this in
frlngement upon the rights
of a majority of the people
shall be continued in favor
of the whiskey men, whose
diabolical work is doing
more to blackcn the lives
and characters of the young
men than any other con-
Eliminating influence that
stalks abroad in our land, is
a blightlng curse upon Our
political and civil liberty.

with the committee when
convened, The chairman
could not outside of the
meeting, put out old mem
bers and put others il their
place without taking more
authority than IS usually
given one man in this part
of the Republic. If a re-
organization was necessary,
the election of officers was
one of the most important
part of that business. This
however was not considered
by Uncle John; but he assu-
med the chair without even
mentioning that fact, or
declaring auy vacancies at
all, All people who know
anything about deliberative
bodies, know that such
proceedings was a farce in
that particular. There is
another point about the
appointment of this COM
mittee, He says that he
only left off two of the old
members without their con-
sent. We remember that
three demanded or asked if
they were not allowed 4
vote, to wit: Qualls, Yeager
and Henery Wigs. Again
why did not Uncle John
reappoint, Yeager, the
secretary, or Qualls, the
treasurer of the committee
instead of Shell from this
township? and again, if he
appoint Shell, why not
also appoint Mclean? The
only good reason we can
see for all this is that Uncle
John was determined to
keep Shell out of the Post
Office. The fact that he
was an applicant would de-
prive him of a vote as both
applicants were sent out of
the room, and Yeager and
Qualls were both for Shell.
In this little piece of cum
ming work Uncle John dis
franchised every Republican
patron of the Office in Piney
Fork township.

sooner or later, and for the
sake of your homes and the
children now nesting about
its hreside, stop in the year,
1897. No people could bemore
independent than can our
farmers in Sharp county,
if the burden of debt was
lifted from their shoulders,
and industry and economy
rigidly practiced. We say
if it is necessary, let our sons
and daughters wear nice
homespun, rather than place
a debt over the little home.
Let them wear the last
years hat or the clearly
washed and ironed sun bon.
nett, as our good mothers
and grandmothers use to do
rather than place a debt on
the growing crop, that it
can never pay. Debt is
ruinous. 1t stiles the en-
ergy of the young and sad
dens the life of the aged.
Our people, in
stead of buying everything
that is manufactured abroad,
must manufacture them at
home. A careful analysis
of the sources of revenue of
this section will show that
more money goes out an
nually to buy what is con-
sumed by our people, than
their income is. This is
placing Sharp county under
tribute to t h e northern
state and manu- featuring
cities, which is gradually
sapping her substance.
This, we cannot stand.
The remedy is to build up
home industries. If this
could be done, we would pay
tribute to no section. The
money which now goes to
northern cities would re-
main and circulate among
our people. This is I'M
portant. If we could manu-
facture the cotton and vol.
en- good, the shoes, wagons,
plow- timbers, and many
other articles of daily con.
SUMPTION, for which the raw
material lies at our doors,
many thousands of dollars
would be left among our
people which now 60 to
make the rich richer and us
poorer, We have reached
a stage in our history when
this is an imperative de.
mand, and if it is not
needed, with an increase of
the tariff, our country will
soon be swallowed up in
the vortex of bankruptcy.

goods bought by our people
Will be increased at least
Is per cent. This meas
that plows, hoes, shoes, tin.
ware, and all cotton and
wollcn goods will go up Is
per cent higher than they
are now.
In view of these facts, it
is time for our people to
stop and think. Can we
pay this increased burden?
1t is certain that great
majority of our farmers are
growing poorer every year
at the present prices. A
very large number of them
find themselves, at the end
OF the year with their crop
gone, no money to show for
it, and their debts with the
merchant, doctor and black
smith still unpaid. These
facts tell too plain that
it is only a matter of time
under the present low prices
of goods, to say nothing Of
an increase, when the end
will be reached. The mer-
chants will be forced in a
few more years to! abandon
the practice now kept up
of carrying their creditors
from one year to another.
We..can see two good reasons
for this.
First. II h e merchants
who do a credit BUSINESS,
are compelled to sell their
goods much higher than if
they were selling for cash,
And the reason for this
needs no explanation, That
thess Smerchants do this
drives the cash trade from
their doors, and as a result,
the greater part or their
business is done on a credit.
This condition will not con-
tinue many more years, tor
the reason that all business
is seeking a cash basis.
Second. No farmer can
afford to pay the price for
goods which the merchant
who sell on a credit are
compelled to ask. This is
a self evident proposition.
The profits on the farm
products over and above the
cost of productions, are not
sufficient to pay the mer-
chants price for goods
bought on a credit. Hence
the farmer who has to buy
his goods on a credit is !
gradually getting deeper in
debt as the years go by.
Year after year the home.
stead is burdened with
increased debt,
This condition of things
cannot last long, and under
the new tariff and the single
standard, we feel that the
climax will be reached in a
few short wears,

For some time past says a dispatch
from ReddinE, Cal, rumor has been
persistenty circulated to the effect
that the recent strike made by the
Graves brothers at Morrison Gulch,
near Trinity Center. is myth, and
that the gold minted by them in San
Francisco was the product of the rob
berry of stage by the Ruggles broth
ers at the time Buck Montgomery
was killed, and which was never re-
covered. 1t has also been rumored
that the Graves brothers were in some
manner parties to the robbery, and
that what they so extensively adver-
tised as rich strike was simply the
uncoverlng of their own cached treas
ure. With the view Of removing the
shadow of doubt from the Graves
the community. a local paper made a
thorough investigation and denounces
the story as senseless fabrication.
1t Is stated on the authority of Syl-
vester Hull, who was under-sheriff at
the time of the robbery, that the
whole amount of treasure secured from
the Wells Fargo company's strong
box did not exceed $4,000. of which
$500 was in coin, $500 in greenbacks
and the remainder In bullion and
dust. Most of the money was recov-
cred from the place where 1t was
cached near Tehama. While the
Ruggles boys were In Jail Hull worked
upon them to discover where they
had buried the bullion, and one of
them agreed to confess, but before he
did SO he and his brother We're
them. It is therefore maintained
that by no process OF reasoning could
the Graves brothers, find be connected
with the stolen treasure.

that locality TO his confederates in this
