The Newport News emits the
following wall in its last issue:
''In the doubtful event of Stew
art being elected county judge it
would simply mean sinking our al
ready heavily laden county deeper
in the mire by building a new
court house. 1t is we'll known he
is and has been advocating the
building of a court house ever since
last election, and even before it.
The taxpayers will see to it, that
their burdens are not increased by

We are glad to find that the
Newport man has finally found out
that the county is deeply in debt.
Yes, it is heavily laden with debt,
and great portion of the debt that
the county is now struggling under
has been laid upon it by a coun ty
court presided over by the same
man that the News now seeks to
have elected to the Office of county
judge. o. Stearns. 1t is mat
ter that even the News won't deny
that ever since the county has been
organized, except from July Ist,
1894 to August Ist, 1896 that Mr..
Stearns has been member of the
county court, and that every dollar
of indebtedness piled up against
the county has received the sanction

AS to the county building a

When they think of their struggles with

To strengthen the fallen with his protec-

Go forth, that Freedoms bright banner

Ger land of the free and home of
the brave.

Meath the the emblem of love-the Red

The farmers Of Polk county are catch
ing onto business principles. The grow
ers of mohair in that county pooled
their stock, amounting to $4,000 pounds,
invited bids, thus bringing buyers into
competition. This method of selling,
scured the highest market price, 30h
cents. This bulking or pooling of pro-
ducts has many good features, the grow
ers sell at less expense of buying to the
dealer which difference is added to the
growers profits, and each grower re-
ceives uniform price.

lied Union club at this place, and
warns the boys not to take such a
step.
By the shape of his cranium the

attempt to show them why they
should not take such step. "Qui
facit per olium, facit per se," so the

such writers. The club is in di-
rect opposition to the single gold
standard. and believe that nothing
but the free coinage of silver will
bring prosperity, not such writer's

struck few. We don't believe in

The Union campaign committee
have issued challenge on behalf
or the Union candidate for Gov
ernor, Mr.. w. R. King, to Mr.. 7.
T. Geer, the Republican candidate,
for joint debate of the public
issues in this campaign, the discus
sion to consist of ten debates. The
answer of Mr.. Geer will be looked
for with great interest by The peo-
pie, and should these candidates
meet in joint discussion, it will be
a step outside of the usual cam
paign paths in this state. Mr..
Geer is known all over the state to
be an able aud eloquent speaker
and a ready debater. but Mr.. King
is man who is ready to meet him
upon the stump and discuss these
questions. The Union committee
is making a fight this year, and if
the republicans again carry the
state, a thing which does not seem
possible, they will not secure it by
default, at least.

The conflict between the United States
andSpain is now on, and hostilities have
been begun. The American fleet has the
harbor of Havana blockaded, and since
Sunday no Spanish vessel has been al
lowed to pass in or out. The Spanish
fleet has not left the harbors of Havana,
Porto Rico and Manila.
A conflict between the Asiatic SQUAD
rons of the two fleets is hourly expected
in the neighborhood of the PHILIPPINE
islands. The American fleet under Com
modore Dewey has sailed from Hong
Kong for the PHILIPPINE islands and a
naval battle will take place, unless the
Spanish fleet refuses to come out of the
harbor of Manila and give battle. In
that case Manila will be bombarded.

ness enterprises with success. In no
other country are there so many per
sons who do their work in their own
homes as in France. This has proved
that 1ndlvldualism among WORKING
men is promoted by cooperation
rather than the reverse.
We must go to England however to
study most successfully cooperation
as related to the purchase for con-
sumption of all commodities. the
proflts going to the consumers. Co.
operative stores have become very eX.
tenslve all over the United Kingdom.
and so great and long-continued has
been their success that it is no longer
an experiment.
One of the fundamental principles of
English cooperative societies is fair
dealing Each applicant for member
ship must accept the principle and be
guided by desire to promote truth
tulness, justice, and economy in ex-
change by the abolition of false deal
ing, never representing any article
other than it is known to be, or con-
ceallng from the purchaser any fact
which will aid him in Judging of the
value of what he buys.
To those of us who know to what
an enormous extent dishonesty enters
into all trade, even in a civilized coun-
try, and how impossible it is to pre-
vent being cheated except by spend
ing more ingenuity, toll, and nervous
energy to protect ourselves, and even
then often without success, than most
of us can afford, this simple rule of
dealing fairly with all customers will
be revelation.
A store is not only place to pur-
chase the necessities of life, butitis also
an educational institution. Mr.. Hol-
yoke calls it guild rather than
shop or a store. A shop cares only
for your custom, and will treat YOU
honestly, perhaps, to retain this Gus
tom. A cooperative store or factory
cares for your welfare, and would
benefit it's members by making life
pleasanter, and confer less mastery
and more individuality and indepen-
dence. The store is visited daily by
the head of the family, and is to some
extent center of thought as well as
of trade; it gives instruction in classes
in domestic economy, and has its fes-
tival days and lectures on various
subjects.
