Hog Raisers Had to Get Their Winter Sup

The 'Hog Cholera" struck some of
our farmers pretty bad the past sum-

buy. Two of the latter, Walter I.
Massey and James W. Price, went to
Philadelphia and bought seven porkers
each, that came from the West. Hogs

The Death of Mrs. Hum.

Mrs. Emma Hum, wife ofJOseph B.
HUM, passed peacefully away Sunday,
after an illness of some months, aged
81 years. She was the daughter of
Jacob Lienberger, their wedding nup-
tials being eleven years ago, and be-
fore and since marriage, always fav'
orite with her associates. She was held
in high esteem by her neighbOrs and
there is but little questioning that she
often overtaxed her strength in yield
ing to her ambitions. She went to
Philadelphia in the spring for medical
treatment, making her home at her sis
ters. The feeling when she returned
some two months ago that she had i'm
proved was delusion, as the wasting
away of the last month amply testi-
fed. She leaves a greatly bereaved
husband, who was fond of his home,
and a bright little daughter of some
ten summers, Julia, for whom every
/ one has kind word.
The funeral services will take place
this afternoon conducted by Rev.
Henry Thomas of st. Peters Church
this town, and Rev Geo. W. Dame of
Holy Innocents Church Baltimore.
She was a communicant of st. Peter s
Church. The interment was in the
Odd Fellows cemetery.

great good that might have been
done in our country with the

been spent in irrigation of the

United States would have reap

laws forbidding sheep to enter
government reserves at any sea-

law of that nature would be a
death blow to one of the chief

Those engaged in sheep hus-

our delegate to bitterly oppose
SUCH a law, and furnish him with

before the House of Representa-

body. Don IT wait until the bill
has been introduced, referred to
its appropriate committee and

These are the ones most likely

this reason is class legislation
dangerous and deadly. It takes

gives to those who are least in

said: cit is competition which

trust which controls the entire

uCt does not need to send out

article but the trust, and in
order to get any of it, every
body must go to the trust and
pay the price demanded by the
trust. The object of a mono
poly is to make the largest pos

Not q War of Peoples.

"There is no war between the
Dutch and the English" is the
sententious comment of Oleve
Schreiner.
This is the exact truth. Miss
Schreiner declares that the war
is the result of a plot among a
few capitalists to get possession
of property belonging to the
Beers. To do this they have
enlisted the power of the Brit
ish Empire and bamboozled the
English people by rhetoric
about the inevitable and divine
ly ordered growth of British
power.
The pity of it is that they
themselves are not to fight their
own battles. But such men do
not banker after heroism. They
want the profits. Let the poor
devils who love their country
do the dying. Perhaps a hun
dred men will reap the benefit
of this hideous wholesale muir

The chief reason advanced for

the party to denounce them in

rendering a check for $40, drawn by
