WHAT FEEDS SALOONS?
Rev. J. S. Lamar Gives His
Opinions,

der to do business must have raw
material to work upon. The saw
mill must have logs, the grist mill
have grain, the paper mill must
have old rags, the gin mill must
have cotton, and the "saloon mill"
must have boys.
1t is an absolute fact that the
saloon mill must have boys as raw
material to work upon in order to
continue to do business. As logs
to the saw ,nill, as grain to the
Touring mill, so are boys to the
saloon mill.
Withhold the logs and the lum-
Der supply and trade would at
once decline and soon end; with
hold the boys from the internal
saloon mill, and as soon as the old
topers, whose hides are soaked in
beer, are dead, which will not be
long, the infamous saloon mill will
cease to grind.
One boy out of every FIVE fami-
lies, or one out OF every twenty
boys in America, are annually
ground up, soul and body, in the
saloon mills of the land.
Whose boy shall be the next
victim? Some mothers delight,
some fathers pride, must be
crushed, and torn and ground if the
"drunkard factory" and murder
mill" saloon is allowed to run on.
Parent, if you thought that your
boy would be the next victim of
this heartless, soulless, death
dealing and damning, monster,
would you not be in favor of clos
ing her down?
But your neighbours boy has al
ready been ground and murdered,
and scores of others are in the
mills hopper just now. Will you
stand idly by looking on at all this
scene OF tortue without once lifting
up your hand or voice to help the
poor defenseless victim?
The horrible burning of one poor
guilty negro in Georgia a few
weeks ago is still fresh in your
mind. and your tender, sympa-
thetic heart chills and sickens at
the very thought; yet you can
stand and indifferently look, and
even occasionally cheer and ap-
plaud, while one hundred thous.
and of our dear sons are burned
and ground, cut, torn and mangled
and crused until they have suffer-
ed thousand deaths in the hell
born saloon mill. 80 consistency,

| tell you, there is is a "mob"
more to be dreaded than the one |
who invaded an Indian settle
ment and burned alive two in |
nocent Indian boys, and that's the |
mob of brewers, distillers, saloon
keepers and beer and hop ale ven-
lers, here and elsewhere, who are
and banded together for
no other purpose than to burn and
destroy the bodies and souls OF
,ne hundred thousand of once in
locent and harmless sons, OF one
,undred thousand weeping and
,eart.crushed mothers of America. |
o men, let us rise up as one

ho internal saloon mills in our
own, and save the morals, the

Mr.. Rob,nson's Answer.

July 10Th a mass meeting OF the miners
was held at this place, as previously
stated In this paper, to attend conven-
tion at Dubois last week. A committee
was sent from the Dubois convention
to see General Manager L. w. Robin
son. and below we publish that part OF
his answer to the committee which
concerns the employment Of miners at
this place and the running OF the train
TO Big Soldier:
"ln regard to the Reynoldsville men
who have not received work: As before
stated, 1t is my intention to do as you
have suggested in giving our employees
work, but there are number Of men
who have not been near Soldier Run
mine to ask for work. They will find
II they go there and ask for work, they
will be placed to the best possible ad-
vantage at this late date to secure en-
ploymcnt. We have no way OF knowing
whether there are ten or fifty who have
not secured work, but any who apply
will receive employment.
"As far as the train Is concerned, we
shall no longer haul our employees or
any one In box cars. Your committee
have had II fully explained to them why
we do not consider it safe or policy to
run this train as we did heretofore. The
question OF train will be held over for
the present, and II it is decided to put
one on II will be regular passenger
train, which will be safer, and reasona-
BILE compensation will be charged. The
service given will depend upon the
schedule of through trains, and II the
accommodation of the miners between
Reynoldsville and Soldier Run is to be
considered, the service will depend en-
tirely upon the relations existing be-
tween the employees and the company"

Scores Galore.

The ball game last Thursday after
noon on the grounds at this place
between what was called the Hotel Nc
Connel and Hotel Imperial teams, was
the greatest game OF the season-for
scores. The score was 47-32 In favor OF
Hotel Imperial. Uncle" Ed Seeley
says that is the kind Of game he en-
joys. He likes to see the players "come
in home.' Scientifically there have
been better games played at this place,
but for wild throwing, muiling the ball.
Nc, the game has not been surpassed
in many years. The game was called
at 800 and was finished about dark
Before the game was ended there was
not much roofing "a the players had
the grounds almost entirely TO them
selves. There was one scientific fea-
ture Of the game and that was the
kicking" on the umpire's decisions,
and that was so vigorous that IL re-
quired three umpires before the finis of
the game. Some of the fine points in
the game were the way Mark" Conser
caught the'ball with his foot, the field
ing of Thomas Green and Thos Maloy,
John Dunsmore's work on first base and
the pitching done by DOC" Hayes, DR..
Harry King, Will Herpel viii Wiley
and John O'IIare. The Imperial team
only got l3 scores of Hayes in the first
inning

Just Arrived from Klondike.

X. ID. McCreary and wife, OF Leech-
burg, Pa, were guests of Mr.. and Mrs.
George Mellinger Sunday. Mr.. Nc
Creary arrived in Brookville Friday
evening direct from the Klondike,
where he had been for eighteen months.
Mrs. McCreary was visiting in Brook
vile and that is why Mr.. McCreary
made that his first stopping place. 1t
took one month TO make the trip from
Alaska to Jefferson county. Mr.. Nc
Creary says the Klondike is badly
misrepresented country so far as hard
ships are concerned. He says it is ex-
tremely cold there but that he did not
suffer any more from cold weather than
he does in this country. They have no
wind and the snow falls from three to
four feet deep. During the summer
there is no night in Alaska. Mr.. Nc
Creary gives very interesting account
OF the Klondike and its gold.
