General health is fair for such a
hot season. That is about over we
hope.
Cutting of clover hulling for seed
is now engaged in by many farmers
and is turning out well.
A vast amount Of corn will be cut
up here this fall and many corn bind:
ers have been purchased for the
occasion.
Mr.. Carver is still lying very low
and death has been expected for sew
eral days. He has been afflicted for
several years with kidney trouble.
Much hay is now being bailed for
market but there seems to be a great
scarcity of wire in the market for
that purpose on account of the steel
strike.
We are glad to state that the corn
crop is showing up much better than
was expected some time ago. 1t is
thought now some where near a half
crop will be realized.
Mr.. Abner Allen who has a large
acquaintance through the county
died on last Sunday night. He has

News is scarce in our vicinity this
week, from the fact that all branches

by the large attendance at the state

some one, then the professional
growler" would be after the local
correspondent for sighting his family
connections, as we correspondents
are always blamed if we should hap.
pen to miss mentioning some one who
has come in, or gone out of the
neighborhood, that we had never
heard of. 1t is so common to hear
some chronic calamity bowler from
the old Populistie school, attempting
to knife some local correspondent
because he thinks his particular
church or Sunday school, his mother
in-law, or his wife's aunt had not been
mentioned in the local items as much
as some other church, Sunday school
or friends of the same had been;
claiming that it had been done
through a spirit of prejudice or spite
in order to slight some of the Dig four.
Such slurs as we local correspond
ents get may seem sweet to the "Old
Timer" but to the local correspond
emit it is not so sweet. After about 25
years ofexperience in gathering items
for paper, have been led to be-
lieve that of all men the "chronic
kicker" is the most unthankful being
on earth. You will always see him
writing something for publication
signing some fictitious Names so
as to harpoon some one without be-
ing publicly known. AS an humble

respondents for tho OsKALoosA HER

THE LABOR RESOLUTIONS.

The American Federation of Labor
has closed one of the most important
conventions in its history. important
not only because of the labor questions
before it for determination, but because
of the economic problems discussed and
passed upon.
At the beginning of the convention
the socialist members introduced a
very strong resolution favoring their
system of government, but it is a pleas
ure to the American people to note that
ii was showed aside at the final windup
of the convention, the following report
of the committee on resolutions being
adopted by a unanimous vote;
THE aims and desires and aspira-
tions of trades %unionists comprise all
that is necessary or possible to the well
being of the human family and in the
pursuit of the accomplishment of which
we cheerfully accept. and, in fact de.
sire all the assistance which can he
given our movement by those reform
forces which stand for the betterment
of mankind. In this position we are in
close relationship to the greater body
Of socialists and, with them. agree that
not only should the burdens of toll be
made lighter, but that each worker has
ar u%ndeniable right to enjoy the full
benefit of that which he or she pro,
duces. We. like them, stand for greater
liberty, and are determined so to act
that the future shall be mole c~ongenial
to the whole human family, and espe-
cially more bright and enjoyable t. men
and women bread of North
America, whom we directly and indi-
rectly represent"
EACH WORKER HAS AN UNDE,
NIABLE RIGHT TO ENJOY THE
FULL BENEFIT OF THAT WHICH
HE OR SHE PRODUCES. That is in.
dividualism to the fullest degree
There is nothing of the about
that. Each shall have the benefit of his
toll: that is, if n man does twice the
dhIouht VI "olh HIS neiSnpoI pellol HIS,
he shall have the benefit thereof and
shall not be required to share equally
with the %profligate, the unthrifty and
the incompetent. In other words, the
American Federation would put a pre-
MUM upon thrift, energy and knowl'
edge, and not tax it to the level of the
| Ipwer GRADES Of humanity
The American Federation of Labor
has enough bright minds among its
membership to fully realize that so
cialism is not the remedy for existing
evils. On the contrary. socialism
would plunge deeper into troubles we
know not of.
1t is the keen competition between
mind and mind that lends spice to life
and elevates the race.
