thinks the Office of State Printer should
be abolished. lie says that the meth

Dancing for Health.

Long ago some ingenious arithmeti-
clan discovered the exact amount of
ground covered by the average dancer
in the course Of an evening, and the
votaries Of the dance are now suggest
ing that dancing should be revived as a
hygienic exercise. Nowadays men and
girls show great eagerness to take up
any pastime or sport which gives them
exercise, and, as we all know, dancing
has somewhat lost its vogue, which,
from social point Of view, is much to
be regretted. Let some Of the fashion
able doctors recommend their dyspeptic,
anaemic patients of both sexes to waltz
as much as possible, giving themselves
on an average the equivalent in terpsi-
chorean exercises of at least thirty
miles walk week, and we shall see a
wonderful revival in dancing.-Phila-
delphia Ledger.

Figures ON Canada,s Trade.

In 1897 English exports to Canada
were valued at $30,OOO,OOO, says a
writer In the Worlds Work. In 1900
they were $45OOO,OOO Canadian ex-
ports to England In 1897 were 77,000,-
600, and in 1900 they were $1OS,0O0,-
600. The preference given to England
was coincident at least with an annual
gain at the end of three years of 90
per cent of English trade In Canada
and about 40 per cent Of Canadian
trade in England.
In 1897 the United States without
tariff concessions bought from Canada
$50,O0O,OOO worth of goods and $780,
100000 worth in 1904 gain for Can
ada of 40 per cent, or the same gain as
made in her trade with England. In
1897 the United States sold Canada
SCI 100000 worth Of goods, and $11O,-
100000 worth In 1900, or a gain Of Is
per cent, as against England's gain Of
30 per cent.

STEEL MEN JUSTIFY REFUSAL.
South Chicago Men Issue Address Ex-
planning Why They Do Not Strike.

South Chicago Men Issue Address Ex-.
planning Why They Do Not Strike.
Employees of the Illinois STEEL Com
pany's plant at South Chicago have is
sued statement in which they give their
reasons for refusing to answer the call
Of President f. j. Shaffer to strike in
sympathy with the Eastern steel workers.
They contend that they have a contract
with the Illinois Steel Company and that
under the laws of the Amagamated AS
| ISOLATION they were not permitted to
break it, They also assert that Vice
President w. G. Davis had supported
them in their refusal to strike.
The statement declares that the men
have always been stanch unionists, and
that their present course is in keeping
with the fundamental principles of trades
unions. The ruling of President NJ NJ.
Garland made in 1897 when a number of
rail straighteners in South Chicago went
out on strike in the face of an agreement
with the company is cited, as also is
ruling of President Shaffer in 1898 when
the international Tin Plate Workers AS
soclation asked the Amalgamated Assoc
citation to enter into q defensive alliance
with it.
Skaters answer was to the effect that
his organization stood for the observance
of contracts and that it would not enter
| into any alliance, either offensive or de-
fensive, which would obigate it to VIC
late any of its contracts with employers.
The recent statement of President Mitch
ell of the United Mine Workers. in
which he mentioned instances where the
constitution Of a union had been ignored
so that contract with employers might
be carried out is also quoted as showing
! that the denunciations of labor organi-
cations against the South Chicago men
are unwarranted.
The statement concludes as follows:
The principles of union labor are as
I dear to us as to any men in the country
who earn their living by honest toll, but
we do not think we should be expected to
violate every rule of business integrity
and personal honor for matter of senti-
ment, for this is time when we must
not let our sympathy get away with our
better Judgment. 1t may not be generally
known, but the fact is we were supported
by our district vice president, w. G. Da-
Wis, in our action in refusing to strike"

MOB RULES THE TOWN.
Pierce City Drives Negroes from It's
BORDERS ard Burns Their Homes.

Borders ard Burns Their Homes.
With the exception of a few car port
ers, who are known to be, respectable,
there is not Il negro in Pierce City, Mo-
For fifteen hours an armed and furious
mob coursed through the streets chasing
away every negro. The homes of five ne
grOes were burned. and in one of them
Peter Hampton, aged II and feeble, was
cremated, as he was unable to escape.
Beginning Sunday afternoon, when the
mangled remains of Miss Gazelle Wild
were discovered in ravine, where she
had been murdered while struggling with
a negro assailant the community has
been in a terrible fever. Will Cooley, Il
suspect, was arrested and lynched. His
grandfather, French Cooley, was shot to
death. Eugene Carter, alias Barrett, also
suspect, was strung up until he con-
fessed, and may die of his injuries. \
boy was perhaps fatally injured by &
stray bullet during the raid upon the
negro quarters.
After the lynching of Cooley it was
thought the excitement would die down,
but instead it became more intense, in
asmuch as the impression grew that God
ley was not the real culprit. Early the
following morning the mob broke into the
arsenal Of the local militia company, Sc
cured the rifles and ammunition and
started out to clear Pierce City of all
negroes. The work was thoroughly done.
The terrified blacks. bullets whistlins
about their ears and in-some instances
finding Judgment in their bodies, fled to
the woods and nearby towns, where they
!, P,,;n IL,
In the afternoon partial quiet was re-
stored, but this fact is due to the lack of
negroes to work upon. Citizens, mindful
of several atrocious crimes against wOm-
en- hereabouts within recent years, have
decreed that no negro can hereafter live
in Pierce City or pass through the place
on pain of death. This may necessitate
complete change in the car porter sys-
tenn of four railroads centcring near
there.
