The second meeting of the Coal
Dealers Protective Association was
held last evening at the Hygeia Skating
Rink. A full attendance was present.
The committee on perfecting organi-

was adopted and that business was
Immediately proceeded with.
The following officers were elected:
President-Mr. CIV. Conner.
Vice President-Mr Robert Carowth.
Secretary-Mr. A. J. Frick.
treasurer. f. Jones
The forming of a permanent organ
ization was then completed. 1t was
decided to have a meeting of the as
ISOLATION every Tuesday evening, I'M
til the plans of organization can be
perfected.
A resolution was adopted requesting
the agents of the Fairmont Coal Min
ing Companyto sustain the coal mining
cmopanies in their cash agreement,
adopted at last weeks meeting, on the
same footing as they now sustain the
association on the price agreement.
If this arrangement eliminates sat
isfactorily consumers will not be able
to get a load of coal without paying
cash for it. This will in a great way
do away with bookkeepers and collec-
tors employed by coal dealers under
the old system.
Another agreement reached at last
nights meeting was that all team
sters hauling coal be forced to pay
cash for the coal, the same as the do
mestic trade. This will eventually
shut off the domestic trade from Sc
curing coal on credit any way at all.
Aside from routine matters, no 9TH
ers business was transacted at last
nights meeting. The next meeting of
the association will be held next Tues
day evening.

MIR. NATION Wakes UP.

At last Mr.. Nation-Mrs. Nations
husband-has been heard from. Long
suffering and slow to anger, his wrath
has been finally aroused by the threat
of his wife to go east. 81 want her to
keep herself confined to Kansas
says Mr.. Nation, who has keen appre-
citation of the difficulties in the way of
a Saloon-smashing crusade in eastern
cities. eff she goes east and smashes
saloons, know that she will be lock-
ed UP and punished severely. 1 told
her this said the old gentleman, "but
she laughed at me and told me to
come home and mind my own bust
ness" All of which naturally rifles the
long suffering Mr.. Nation, who de-
clares:
The least I can say to fully express
my opinion is that she has been max
ing some bad breaks here lately and
is spreading this crusade too far.
have spent five weeks in following her
around and her rampages have cost
me close on to 5000"
Mr.. Nation is evidently a practical
person not given to sentimentality. 81

cause l needed some one to run my

We went to Texas and set up in bust
ness. In short time I accumulated
100000. / attribute my financial sue
cess largely to her. But she is so
hard to manage when she wants to
do anything"
1t appears that Mrs Nation con-
tracted the crusade habit in Texas,
defying the authority of her hus-
band and making things so warm
that they were compelled to leave the
Lone Star State. Coming to Medicine
Lodge, Kansas, Carrie started on her
rampages again. to quote her spouse
What made me angry was that she
kept telling me the reason she was
smashing saloons was because her first
husband died Of drink and she feared
| would do the same"
1t has recently developed that Mrs.
Nations mother died insane and some
of the Kansas hatchet-wielder's "bad
breaks, to use her husbands term,
would seem to indicate that her own
mental equilibrium is not of the firm
est. This view is evidently shared
by her husband. cat times I think
she is daft about this saloon smashing
business" he declares. "She will fast
for days, until have to make her eat
or she will die. She claims to have
visions of the Lord, and lots of times
1 have arrived home to find her talk
ing with an unseen being, who she
claimed was Christ. l laughed at her
for this absurdity, but she assured me
it was true"
This is a somewhat new light on
the celebrated saloon-smasher and
would seem to indicate that there is
considerable risk in allowing such a
person to run at large with a Ratchet

amy in the Couer Il Alene region which
rendered him an object of adherence to
every workingman IN the country. That
the President should now desert MIN be-
cause he incurred unpopularity through
carrying out the Presidential instructions
is grossly ungrateful, but characteristical-
ly McKinleyish.
And yet Mr.. Mckinley has proven
that he is not ungrateful to those
who have been of assistance to him
by sticking through thick and thin
to notoriously unfit appointees in
many instances. A notable example
is the case of the negro blackleg and
dive keeper, Demas, who, for his SER
vices in manipulating negro delega-
ties to the advantage of Mr.. Mckinley
in the st. Louis convention, was ap-
pointed by the President to the best
federal Office in Louisiana, in the face
of protest signed by the best Repub
licans in the state.
We protest that this proves that
Mr.. Mckinley is not ungrateful, al
though we admit that he is not averse
to using scapegoat in an emergency
as witness poor old Alger, who was
sacrificed to public indignation over
Spanish war mismanagement for
which Mr.. McKinley's political APP
pointments of incompetenus in the
service was wholly responsible.
