Should Have Been Honest.

The Charleston Gazette of yes
terday published what purports to
be parallel" of an article APP
pearing in the protestant Metho-
dist" and the Point Pleasant Reg
lister, of similar language, without
giving the date in which the ar
ticle appeared in tho protestant
Methodist" or the date it appeared
in the Register, In this tho edi-
tor of the Charleston Gazette dis
played DOWNRIGHT dishonesty in
an attempt to deceive and mislead
the public into the belief that the
Daily Register had been guilty of
"plagiarizing" We never saw or
heard of the "Methodist Protest
ant" and inquiry among our Min
listers fails to reveal that such a
paper is published. Therefore,
we conclude that the paper is a
myth, and that Mansfield has per-
petrated fraud upon his readers,
that he might hold the Register
up to public ridicule. The Regis
ter has always been able to get
along editorially without resorting
to plagiarizing, which is more than
can be said of the Charleston Ga
zetto.

Arc our People to he murdered.

Are our People to he murdered?
The sinking disease breeding
hog-pen, is now getting in its
deadly work in this town, and to
them is chargeable about all the
sickness there is now in the town,
and nearly every death from fever
can be charged up to the hog-pens
Is the town council going to allow
people to be murdered by the pes
thence breeding hog pen? Is the
hog-pen of more consequence to
the town than the health and lives
of its people? That is a question
for the town councilto settle. Let
them ask any reputable physician,
and he will tell them that there is
nothing that is more of disease
breeder than the hog-pen. No
quarter of the town is free from
their stencil. Abate them and
abate them quickly. If the town
council will not do it, then the
Board of Health should.

Men get little praise while they
are living; SO it is no use to look
for it OF expect it, If you are en-
gagged in good cause go ahead
till you die; then you'll get the
praise. 1t will do you good to
look down from heaven and see
men and women lifting up their
hands in praise who lifted them in
envy, praise and jealousy while
you were living. No, you do not
need to expect praise while you
live for any good you do. People
are too busy finding fault. If you
have but few faults itgives them all
the more trouble to find them, Ifa
mans faults are numerous they
are SO easily found that the fault
finders have q snap of it, but when
man has but one or two and they
are very small it gives the fault
finder much work.

are not good things. Statistics
show that only about one in seven
wins anything for the strikers.
There is much sympathy with labor

reason the battle is lost by striking
oftener than gained. The laboring
men should devise some other

Every now and then some paper
troubles itself to the extent of
stating that the constitution says
Congress shall declare war, but
that Billie Mckinley usurped that
right and declared war on the Fill

is surperAuous. Everybody knows
that this administration is not
guided by the constitution or any
thing else-except Mark Hanna

accordingly, it is queer admin

Drouth in the New England States.
In speaking OF his visit back to the
old state of Vermont Rev. A. G. Stew
ems said the crop conditions were any.
thing but favorable. Since early in
the spring q drouth has existed pretty
much all over the New England states,
the fields have turned from and the
corn is stunted in it's growth, not being
advanced nearly SO far as corn in this
state. The first rain since spring, he
said, came last week but not in time to
be of much benefit. Mr.. Stevens said
that aside from the drouth the state
was burdened with caterpiller plague
and immense damage had been done to
the maple trees. In one grove of q
thousand trees he said the caterpillers
had killed every tree. In conversation
with good many farmers and business
men he found that they were looking
toward coming to South Dakota for 8
location and told him he needn't be
surprised to see some of them in this
vicinity this fall.
