Death Of Mrs. Amos Heycner

Mrs. A. Hevener Of Alban, who
went to the cities some two
weeks ago to undergo surgical
operation for the removal of a
tumor from her side, died We'd
nesday night from the effects of
the operation, and the sad news
has cast a gloom over the friends
of the deceased lady, many OF

mission to the cities. Mr.. Hev-
ener himself had recently met
with an accident which prevent
ed him from going to the cities
when he learned the serious ma
ture of his wife's condition.
The deceased lady is daugh-
ter of Mrs. S. McCollum of this
city, and besides her husband
she leaves a little daughter Of
about twelve years and a son
four years old to mourn the loss
Of mother. She was woman
Of most exemplary character,
loved and respected by all who
knew her, and was consistent
Christian and a member of the
Alban M E church.
The funeral service will be
held at the Methodist church in
this city at O'Clock this after
noon

ON THE BROW OF
LABOR.
Mr.. Bryan's Famous Figure OF
SDeech Rendered IIidicN-
lOus by the Facts Of
Prosperity.

The army of the unemployed
is at work. The soldier who
marched under the command of
Genel al Coxey or Carl Brown
has job if he wants it.
Evidences of the fact thet these
are laboring mems times loom
up before one by the time he can
get a block from the depot.
There is more work then work
ers. The toiler is in demand; he
has it his way; there is competi-
ton for his services; wages are
advancing. That is what makes
times good The country cannot
have hard times when the wage
Garner has steady employment at
good pay, and when the farmer
has good price for his produce.
It seems that all these good
times had been brought about
as though by magic. 1t was not
magic. Before he was elected
President Mr.. Mckinley told US
what was needed. When he said
it seemed to him that it would be
better to open our mills to the
labor of America then our mints
to the silver of the world, his
words were good, hard headed
Protective sense.
But Bryan in smooth metaphor
told the Republicans that they
must not press the crown Of
thorns on the brow Of labor; that
they must not cruelty mankind
on a cross of gold.
Mckinley opened the mills by
putting a protective tariff duty
on foreign goods. These times
of steady work and advancing
wages are what Mr.. Mckinley
said would come, are what Mr..
Bryan said would not come.
The states of the west are
beginning to call on each other for
help in these times of long de-
mand aud short supply of labor.
Here are few sample thorns
, that are being pressed down on
the brow of labor right here in
Kansas city. | plucked them

| Wanted men for a fence gans

Laborers wanted daily fol
Wyoming; no office fee charged
and railroad fare furnished free
These few little piercing
"thorns" tell of a wreath Of pros
perity that reaches from
Tennessee to the Pacific Coast.
