The greatest fraud on temperance

So | say to the W. G. Il. U. you
must pray not only with your hearts
and lips but with your ballots. When
you do that, the legalized infamy
that curses your homes, will be put
down and not before. The rebellion
was not conquered until the slaves
were released: reconstruction was not
effected until the slaves were enfran-
chised; the republic will not be re-
deemed until the "homeguards are

General Grant did manly thing
in refusing to drink wine every where
and in all society. 1t is only strong
man who can keep his wine glass up

too!-while all the grand people
around him are slipping champagne
and toasting each o her in sparkling
drinks No one can tell how sIar
this little candle sheds its light
But no man can do for Il fashion in
society what woman can. When
the time comes that the young man
who now shares his time in your So
ciety and the saloon, who jokes about
temperance in your presence, and
takes glass socially now and then,
is made to feel that these things can
not he If you are to be his compan-
ion at party, ride or church; that
good society cannot tolerate these
things in its members: in short, that
this kind of man is questionable

traffic will hide its cancerous face. -

a DISGUISED ENEMY.

Chronic catarrh often makes it's APP
proach in disguise. Before a person
knows it, he may become victim of
chronic catarrh. Its onset may be
gradual, its development insidious,
and at last the victim finds himself in
the clutches of a tenacious disease. A
slight cold, tendency to sneeze, a
puffness in the nose and head, full
ness or cracking in the ears, stringy
mucus in the throat, slight cough or
wheeziness, snoring during sleep, any
one of these symptoms should be re-
garded as warning. What can be
cured in the beginning in week or
two, by using Pe-ru-na, if allowed to
become chronic, may require months
Of faithful treatment. You had bet
ter take Pe-runa now, for by and by
you may be obliged to take it long
time in order to get we'll. Pe-ru-na is
the remedy for catarrh. Almost ev-
erybody knows that by hearsay and
thousands know it by blessed expert
ence.

RATHBONE SISTERS.
Chapter to Be Organized Here
TO-NiQht.

: A Chapter of the Rathbone Sisters
will be organized in the Knights
Pythias hall, this evening. Mrs. Sarah
J. Hill, grand chief of the order in
Minnesota, will arrive on this after
Moons Minneapolis & St. Louis train
for the purpose Of carrying on the
work of organization, initiating the
many members awaiting that honor,
and then installing the officers. Re
freshments will be served. The new
Chapter will be installed with the fol-
lowing officers:
Most Excellent Chief-Eva F. Bald
win.
Excellent..S Senior Carine Aune.
Exce]lentiJunior- Matte A.Hughes.
Manager-Bessie A. Parkhill.
Mistress of Finance-,Sarah Eliza
beth Thompson.
Mistress of Records and Correspond
ence-lda May Pease.
Protector F. Philbrick.
Guard-Lillian Lamberton.
Trustees Sadie Ferris for eighteen
MONTHS: Ella lPhilbrick for twelve
months; Margaret Elizabeth Evans
for six months.
It is the intention of naming the
chapter ''Carine Chapter" after Mrs.
HI. NJ. Aune, but the name will not be
defnitely:decided upon until this ev-
ening owing to there being some
doubt as to whether chapter can be
named aftersansactive member. Men
can be initiated as honorary members
of the order, but all of the work must
be done by the ladies.
The Order of Rathbone Sisters is an
ally of the Knights Of Pythias, having
friendship, charity and benevolence
for it's chief object, the social features
being secondary consideration. It
is now in the sixth year of its exist
ence in this State, aud there are about
twenty-five subordinate organizations
to the Grand Chapter. The nearest
organization of the kind to Redwood
Falls appears to be the one at St.
Peter
The Chapter to be organized here
tonight will start out with a good
membership, and it is probable that
the role of members will increase ma
terially as the order becomes endowed
with age. There are large number
of Knights of Pythias in this section,
and they are connected with families
on which the Rathbone Sisters ex-
pect to build up a large organization.

DEPos1roRs SATISFIED.

Philadelphia, December 2S.--The plan
for the liquidation of all claims against
the Chestnut street National bank, the
Chestnut street Trust and Saving Fund
company were as far as could be learned
today, quite acceptable to the general
body of depositors of both of those in
stitutions. The plan providing for the
turning over to the bank and trust
company the entire property of the. Rec
ord Publishing company, of which Vim:
NJ. Singerly is the owner, it is believed
will suffice to pay all the claims of de-
positors. While few depositors felt
that thsy should receive their money at
an earlier date than can be done under
the plan of liquidation, over one hundred
depositors called atsthe bank today, and
informed Mr.. Singerly, who is the presi-
dent cf both the bank and trust COM
panies, that they were fully satisfied with
the proposed plan. One of these callers
who has on deposit in the trust company
between $4,000 and $4,000 expressed his
belief that the plan is the best tha5 could
have been presented.

ENEMY'S LOSS GREAT.

London, December 28.-A despatch
from Peshawur, says: The British
column have returned from Khyber pass
after pushing with slight opposition,
the Zhaki Khels in the Bazar valley.
Military operations on the frontier are
now concluded. Every Afrid and Orakzai
valley has been visited.
1t now appears that tho enemy's loss
has been more severe than was at first
believed and out of all proportion to its
possible fighting strength. Their trade
with our centres for the necessities of life
has been closed and their autumn tillage
preventd. The complete submisson of the
Orakzais Is now accomplished.
Many hitherto unknown strategetical
frontier routes havs been surveyed and
mapped out The vaunted prestige Of the
Afridis has been lowered and their pun
ishment has paved the way for the
permanent settlement of the country. It
is firmly believed that, cut off from India
and threatened with reinvasion of their
country in the spring, they will now
submit. 1t lie also expected that the
internal friction resulting from the oper-
ations will prove almost as severe pun
ishment as the operations have.

FAVOR CURRENCY REFORM.

indianapolis, Ind, December 2S.--Five
hundred representatives of the Republi-
can party of Indiana, outside of Indian
apolis, attended conference here today
The meeting was for talk and little else
The chief speakers were United States
Senator Fairbanks and Governor Mont.
Senator Fairbanks expressed the belief
that the Dingley law would eventually
bring prosperity equalled only by the Nc
Kinley law itself. He expressed the
opinion that the new tariff would soon
yield sufficient revenue. On the subject
of currency reform he said the Republican
party intended to keep faith to preserve
the gold standard unimpaired.
II saw the President but q day before
coming here.' said Mr.. Fairbanks, land
he said: II am going to keep the bond.
am going to vindicate the sound money
plank in the St. Louis platform At the
coming session of Congress the currency
question will be in debate. Whether we
can pass through the Senate any measure
that will commend itself to the conserva-
tive judgment of the people, oannot say
Neither can foretell what will be the re-
suit of the issue for we have majority
in the House. But do believe the people
will give us credit for an honest and de-
termined effort and that effort they will
surely witness.''
The unanimity of the party in the state
on the proposition that the currency mast
be reformed, was q surprise to good
many attending the conference

Fall River Textile Workers Accept Wage
Reduction.

Fall River Textile Workers Accept Wage
Reduction.
Fall River, Mass, Dec. 2S.-The oper-
atives conference committee was in con-
ference tonight after legislative commit
tee meetings of the various unions had
been held. Sec'y. O'Donnell gave out
the following resolutions:
eve, the representatives of the textile
workers, unanimously agree to present
ing resolutions for their approval:
Having done all in our power to pre-
vent reduction in wages but knowing
full well that reductionis not remedy
for an overstocked market,
Resolved-That we accept the reduct-
ion, as it would not be good business
policy ON our part to enter into a strike
at the present time. But we inform our
employers that as soon as we think there
is margin of profit sufficient for the
restoration of the present wage sched-
ule, we shall demand it, even if we have
to go to the extremity of leaving our en-
pioyment by going out on strike.
The feeling among the leaders tonight
is strong against the reduction. While
the committee offers the resolutions to
the unions, there is a possibility they
will not accept il. The spinners, slasher
tenders and loom fixers especially talk
strike, and it is possibility that it may
be so voted at the meeting on Thursday
night.

Washington, December 2S.-A decision
of much importance has been made by
Commissioner Herman of the general
and office affecting the town of Dyea
Alaska. The town site is claimed by
Healy and Wilson under the general
law allowing 100 acres in Alaska for
manufacturing and trading purposes.
These parties claim to have made their
location long prior to any adverse right.
The commissioner rejects the application
for patent on number of grounds and
says that the survey OF the claim was not
regularly made. He says that new

Boston, December 2S.-Ex- Congressman
Elijah Morse of Canton, has written a
letter to the journal upon labor legisla-
tion in the light of it's bearing on the
present cut down in the wages of the
tertile operatives. He says: ''It is high
time for the legislature of Massachusetts
to call halt on what is known as labor
legislation. These labor agitators, for
and the only work they do is that which
they do with their mouths. 'They toll
not, neither do they spin.' They have
hampered the manufacturers of this state
by erroneous legislation. by unreasonable
restriction of hours of labor of women
and minors in our factories, by burden
some employers liability act, which
makes every manufacturer and employe
An insurance society for every person that
is in their employ, not only from acts of
their own carelessness but from the care
lessness of their employees.
THE laws limiting the hours that
women may spend in our factories works
a great hardship, not only on the manu-
facturers bnt upon the working people
them selves.
"These women would be glad to work
more hours than the law allows, but the
Massachusetts law steps in and forbids
them from doing so. go farther and say
that it is not only the duty of the legisla-
ture to call a ha on this legislation, but
it is the duty of the legislature to repeal
some of the existing labor laws In this
state, at least until other states shall have
passed similar restrictions.
THE laboring people themselves are
the greatest sufferers by these obnoxious
lave that are driving the manufacturer
out OF Massachusetts,. They are killing
the goose that lays the golden eggs.''
