Prosperity.

Once upon a time there was a ship,
and that ship sailed, but that ship
never came back, for il was that same
identical ..ship that never returned, ="
for so saith the song. And again, once
upon a time there was letter written.
and that letter was sent. but it was in
tercepted en- route, and it never ''got
there, - for it happened to be ''the let
ter that never came" as our dear old
mothers used to sing. And now there
is trio, or triplet, or a three-in-the-
bed. or something similar. for that
Prosperity that was so long promised,
and seen. smelt. and heard, and felt,
and tasted, has gone to old Mother
ENGLAND. but to us she has so far failed
to materialize. Gold standard Eng

benefited by gold standard debtor

tude of the 1000. 900 voters who voted
these hard times to remain on us last
fall. in continuation OF the traitor
Cleveland's policy. are getting their
eyes open again, and heartily repent
the blunder they made. And we'll they
may. for certainly the foolishest thing
that we ever heard of 100000 voters
doing was to vote to make money twice
as scarce as formerly, and at the same

Couple this with the fact that 1896
was a presidential year, and that the
excitement and uncertainty incident,
thereto would ordinarily have the ef-
feet (Which it did) of lowering prices
and curtailing the output, the differ
euce is still greater than the figures
show.
By going back to the year 1895 l
find that the difference is still greater,
the shipments having fallen off IS per
cent. and the price from 81 to $3 per
thousand.
These are the conditions that face
the mill men to-day, compelling them
to close down their works, throwing
men out of employment, aud adding
more to the already large army of idle
men.
But we hear it said (by some)
that things will soon boom, now
that the tariff schedule is about COM
pleted. Yes, and so they will! Look
at sugar, for instance; it boomed up
ten points in day-but how about it?
viii we be better able to buy these
necessary things after they go up than
we are now while they are low? Men
out of work and no money to buy with,
even at low prices. and still they tell
US that putting on an additional lax is
going to bring relief and prosperity!
Well, let Us hope that it may do so,
since it is evident that such are the
conditions that now face us. Let's
wait and see. W. J. COLEMAN.

time vote to raise the price of every
thing they have to buy, and also to re-
duce the price of what the producing
and laboring classes have to sell! Now
if that IS not enough to make any hon
est man repent in sackcloth and ashes,
we fail to realize what could. And
now $50, 900 miners on a strike, shorter
hours and smaller wages every where,
failures by the score, and harvest
hands soliciting work at so cents a
day right here in our locality and fail
ing TO get it,-these are all the fruits
of the gold standard and Clevelandism
which is now very appropriately called
McKinleyism. It's all the same, not
in Dutch only this time. but in all
languages and tongues, tribes, national
ities and kindred, it's all the same.

it failed to work to work then, and it
will fail tenfold worse this year.

School Textbook Humbug.

IRONToN, Mo-, July %.
Ed. Rcgister-The Missouri School
Book Commission has been in session
at Jefferson City for more than a
month past. This sitting will cost the
Taxpayers of the State considerable
money. In order to proloug the ses-
sion the Commission rejected all bids
submitted and required publishers to
submit new bids. The Commission
claims that many of the new bids are
lower than the first ones and that an
average reduction of 20 per cent has
been saved on all the common school
books. Now | want some one to in
form an anxious public who Is bene-
fitted By this reductiou-the wholesale
dealer. the retail dealer, or the pa
irons OF the schools who buy the books
for their children? The publisher en-
ters into contract, under bond, to man
ufacture and furnish the books to the
wholesale dealer at so much; the
wholesale dealer furnishes the books
to the country retail dealer at fixed
per cent. advance; the retail dealer is
supposed to sell the books 10 patrons
of the schools at 10 per cent. above
cost and freight; but as a matter of
fact the patron or final purchaser Of
the books pays from 25 per cent. TO 10
per cent. advance on the books pur-
chased for his children.

Then Marion's grandmother came to
the rescue. She thought they better
keep the baby for little while. any
way. 1t was so thin and tiny that il
would be pleasure to build little
Mrs. Day reluctantly agreed to keep
the foundling ''for little while.
Marion jumped with glee, and the
baby broke out in fresh series OF vocal
pyrotechnics at the shaking up it got
in celebration of the decision.
1t was Marion who weighed the
child and found it weig just four
pounds. II was Marion who took
quarter from her savings bank and
bought ii bottle a: the corner, and it
was Marion who heated the milk which
constituted its first meal. 1t hasn't
been much OF anything but Marion
since the little one was found, aud now
Mr.. Day says he doesn't know how he
is ever going to separate the two.
Three days after the foundliug came
into the house Mr.. Day made test.
He thought Marion might have tired
little of the plaything and he could
get it away from her without much
fuss. Mr.. Day came cropper. Ma
riou declared that she would go, too,
so Mr.. Day scratched his head and
concluded that both had better stay.
Yesterday Marion remarked that the
time had come to weigh the baby
again. So her grandmother got out
the scales and the child tipped them
at four and one-half pounds. Marion
was delighted at the results OF her
care and promised to put pound and
a half more on her charge this week.
Now, if the parents of this baby
want it, they can get it by calling or
writing to Mr.. or Mrs. George W. Day
at "A West Tnirty-eighth street. Mr..
Day hasn't much hope of getting rid
of it this way, but says it's it's the only
hope.
Il wouldn't dare to separate the
two,n said Mr.. Day to Sun reporter
last night. Il haven't the courage; |
really haven't. Now, don't want to
bring up this child. It's too great a
sponsibility, and have got all can
attend to with my own family. But
here's my little one so infatuated with
il that / don't see chance of getting
rid Of it. II the parents would only
come and claim it, why then I'd be
obliged to give it to them, but they
never will, I'm sure, and Mr.. Day
groaned.
Marion consented TO let the San re-
porter look at her charge. She woke
it out of sound sleep and. extracting
it from the midst of iunumerable
blankets, held it up for the reporter to
examine. The little one didn't cry at
anything Marion did. but it wasn't
slow in finding its lungs when any one
else approached. 1t is male child,
about three weeks old, and there was
no mark on the shawl or the box in
which it came by which its parents
could be traced. ~ y. Sum-

In Memoriam.

Died-June %. 1897. OF brain fever,
at his home in Hogan. Mo-, little
Raymond McLarney, aged years, 3
months and ! day. A bright aud
shining light that was pure as the
morning dew Our darling aud the
pride of our home. Our joy and hope
has now vanished from our sight to
the evergreen shores TO shine forever
in that bright world where pains ana
parting will be no more. All that
willing hands could do could not keep
him here. 1t seemed that the good
Lord had called for him for some reas.
on unknown to Us. To call him from
us is to go where Jesus is. Never
again can we hear his sweet voice
calling as or singing his little songs or
saying his little prayer, Now lay ma
down to Sleep Never more will we
see his smiling face on earth. A little
green plant lut out by his little hand
in the garden is growing now, while
his form sleeps beneath the clay. Lit
tie Raymond, his suffering was terrible
from Wednesday evening, June 23d.
till Monday morning at / o'clock, June
28th, when death relieved him and
little Raymond was no more. He laid
his playthings by and has gone to wear
a starry crown. By careful hands he
was laid to rest at Glover, Mo-, and
the grave now hides from US that little
form. So the only consolation we
have we know he Is where the weary
are at rest.
Alas and death has come,
His dear sweet voice is stilled,
\ vacant seat is in our home,
Which never can be filed.

A Portion of MankatO Spend Sun

All Have a Good Time, and Are Well
Pleased With the Excursion.

Between 800 and 900 Mankatoites
joined in the excursion to the twin
cities Sunday over the M. & st. l..
Ry. and the Omaha line, and took in
the sights of st. Paul and Minneapo-
lis. The NJ. & ST. l.. road sold Ais
tickets in this city, and on reach
ing Waterville had ten coaches filled
with people. Their train pulled out
at 1905 yesterday morning and reach
ed it's destination little late owing
to the heavy train. For the same
reason the train was late in returning
and it was 1890 this morning when
the train arrived in this city.
The Omaha line sold APO tickets in
this city and total of Gil in all along
the line. Many took advantage of
the opportunity to go up on the early
train and put in long day. Return
ing the excursion train arrived in
this city at 1920 p. N.
The day opened with rather fore
boding look and cold wind, which
doubtless kept some from going, but
the excursion was large one, the
largest that ever went out of Manka-
to. While the day was an unUOmfor-
tably cool one, more like the latter
part of September, than August,
those going report a good time,
though not as nice and attractive at
the lakes as would have been had the
day been a few degrees warmer. All
express themselves as we'll satisfied
with the treatment and Sc If the
roads. and an excursion o, - imilar
kind in the near future would be well

CINCINNATI, Aug. 14.-The follow
ing special from Montgomery, w. Va,
was written by Fred Dilcher, the leader
of the marching miners in that region:
"The progress of the present strike in
this field is wonderful. Every mine in
this and the Kanawha valley is closed
with the exception of two. Our army
marched to Mount Carbon and closed
the mine of the great Kanawha colliery,
one of the largest mines on the river. 1t
was intimated by the operators that this
mine would absolutely refuse to suspend
operations and would fight our army to
a finish but we are proud to say that all
are with us. This we consider one of
our greatest victories"

-Threshing reports commence to
come in, and will increase in frequen-
cy from now on. Mel Moses, east of
Kasota, reports wheat yield of Is
bushels per acre. On the oldsSaules
place, this side of Kasota, it is claim
ed that yield of 26t bushels was
threshed from 60 acres. 1t is also
claimed by Others that there is some
mistake in the figures reported.
Other farmers in that vicinity that
have threshed report an average yield
of about Is bushels per acre.
The season for prairie chickens
opens Sept 1st. A fine of $40 is i'm
posed for each chicken found in per-
sons possession before that date. Yet,
as an exchange remarks, it is hardly
probable that any one with gun will
allow chickens to drive him out of a
field. Some reports state that chickens
will be plenty this fall, while others
aver that they will be very scarce.
Doubtless locality has something to
do with this.

threshed on Thursday, and from SO
acres he got 664 bushels of wheat, or a
yield Of a trifle over 20 bushels to the

InjunCtionS Until DeCis-

Strikers Much Wrought Up by
the Wounding of One of
Their Number.

PITTsBURG, Aug. 14.-Injunctions by
the court have put stop to marches by
the striking miners against the New
York and Cleveland Gas Coal company
for time at least, but in the execution
of the injunctions the sheriff and his
deputies narrowly escaped precipitating
serious trouble. AS it was the first
blood Of the strike was shed. Henry
Stewart, one of the sheriff's deputies,
struck Jacob Mott, drummer of the
Mcdonald band, with the edge Of a
brass horn and cut a severe cash above
his eye. The sight of the blood wrought
up the 1000 idle miners to such pitch
that
Desperate Conflict Was Imminent.
The deputies also were excited and
noisy. The strikers were jeering and
yelling and urging further rush down
the road. In that crowd were enough
angry strikers to annihilate four times
the force of officers on the ground.
Captain Bellingham, Sheriff Lowry,
CLl1O4 anu Su-
perintendent De Arnitt were the only
cool men in the assemblage. To them
belongs the credit of avoiding riot.
When Bellingham saw there was dan
ger of his men getting beyond his con-
troll he commanded halt and addressed
himself to the task of restraining the
more belligerent. So well were his eff
forts directed that he soon had restored
comparative order. Sheriff Lowry had a
Difficult Task TO Perform,
but he handled it well and by his cool
ness and good nature did much to neu-
traliZe the bitterness and strife invited
by the behavior of his subordinates.
The strikers finally retired and marched
back to their camp where the officers
held conference with their attorney
and he advised them to quit marching
until the court had heard the argument
next Monday.
President Dolan then issued orders
that no marches should be made on any
of the mines Of the New York and
Cleveland Gas Coal company until fur
ther orders although a march may be
made against other places.
