 Patrick Kirkpatrick of Dunmore, Pa, an anthracite miner with snow-white hair. made fiery speech urging the soft coal men to strike, saying 1t was the duty of the members of the organization to stand together and that if the anthracite men were beaen in the East, it would be only short time before the bituminous men were defeated in the West Patrick Finney. a youthful soft coal miner from the Pittsburg district, urged that the contracts of the soft coal men be respected. He also warned the con- vention against following the advice of the elderly Mir. Fitzpatrick. saying that the sage councils of the young men should be followed rather than the inflammatory advice of the aged.
 MT. Fitzpatrick endeavored to get the floor for reply. but a rule had been pass ed forbidding any delegate to spea< more than once upon the subject under dis eussion. and he was forced to take his seat.

 Action similar to that of Illinois was taken by Iowa and Ohio tonight The action of the caucus makes a general strike practically out of the question. as Doint without the aid of Illinois. and that State.

On the sauirming of fellow when they

A Man to bePitied.
A ASheville Citizen

ASneViile CItiZen.
OF all the men who have in recent
years turned their political coats, w.
II. Marlborough, Jr., of Franklin coun-
ty, is perhaps the least to be envied!
The career of the man who shifts his
party allegiance is never. one grand,
song, and Yarborough's bids fair to
be unusually strenuous. His father
held office under President Cleveland
and he himself has represented his
county as a Democrat in the Legisla-
ture Recently be suddenly changed
his faith and in the Republican coun-
ty convention last week he made his
first Republican speech. OF it, the
Louisburg Times says:
1T was his first public utterance
since his debut into the Republican
party, and it was really pitifCl to see
him stand up and denounce in gen.
eral terms those men in the Demo-
cratic party who had stood by him
through thick and thin His attacks
upon the County Commissioners,
whose attorney he has been fer sew
eral wears, was the most uncalled for
and the most self-condemnatory pro-
ceeding we have witnessed in years.
Just think of it. The idea of a man
who has been counsel for a Board,
and whose duty it is to advise its
members as to their duties, accusing
them OF robbing the taxpayers. If
he knew the law, and we all admi:
that he does. hasn't he been very
derelict, almost criminally so, if what
he SAYS is true, in not advising them
before, instead of waiting until he
was s.soured" because of the fact that
his party refused to return him to
the Legislature? His speech on this
occasion was as bitter as those he
made two and four years ago de-
nouncing the Republicans and Popu-
lists. And, by the way, the first
political speech this writer ever heard
him make in this county was one de-
nouncing the Legislative record OF
John F. Mitchell, the man whom he
'praised to the skies" in his speech
last Saturday"
A truly pitiful spectacle! But il
has always been so in human history
that the deserter is more bittel
against his former friends and bene
factors than is the man who has al
ways honestly fought them. In poll
tics at least, the explanation is easy
He hopes thereby to prove the sin
cerity of his conversion and be rapid
ly advanced in the line that is stand
ing in front of the pie counter. w
have not the least doubt that Mr.
Yarborough's case is one of this sort
and that it will not be many moon
before we hear that he is candidat
for Federal office. The chances are
too, that Senator Pritchard wi
recommend him in preference to som
man who has spent his life in servic
of the Repu blican party.

EVIDENCES OF PROSPERITY.
Exchange.

Exchange.
While the Republicans are flooding
the country with figures on prosperi-
| ty it might be well to see who the
prosperous are. The Steel Trust is
| making money at the rate of$l40. 000.-
900 year No one will deny that
| that is prosperity. The Beef Trust
is selling beef at figures that puts
about 10 cents in their Golfers on
every pound of beef the American
| people have to buy. Certainly that
is prosperity. The Coal Trust is
charging two dollars for one dol
lars worth of coal. No one will deny
that they ought to be making few
dollars as they 90 along, and that
! they are feeling slight evidences Of
prosperity in their pockets too. The
| typewriter manufacturer is selling
| tvpewriters to American buyers for
800 each which he can afford to sell
in England at $50 a piece. He is
undoubtedly prosperous at that rate.
The sewing machine manufacturers
are selling the housewives $l7 sewing
| machines at $50 each. aud that is
prosperity.
But what about the other fellow
| When the public spirited men of a
town want to build Il street railway
they must pay the Steel Trust $2S
for the same kind OF steel that that
| organization ships to England and
| sells there for 1913 per ton. Does
that make the buyer prosperous'
Last May and at the present time the
laboring man had to pay 25 cents for
u pound of the same kind Of beef that
the Beef Trust ships to London and
| sells there for ID cents per pound. is
he prosperous? The Coal Trust
makes the consumer pay $40 for Is
| worth of coal. Perhaps the consumer
feels that all is prosperity while he
is doing so. When the American
business man wants to buy a type
writer he is charged just 500 for
a machine that is shipped from here
to England and sold there for 80.
When tho busy housewife who has to
do her own sewing in order TO help
her husband to make buckle and
tongue meet, wants sewing machine
she has to pay $40 for a machine that
her English sister can buy for *l1'
In the face of these facts who viii
have the hardihood to deny that our:
is blessed prosperity with the tariff
lfostered trust manufacturers growing
richer every day at the expense OF th'
people? The prosperity Of th'
trusts is not the prosperity OF tn
people.

A Pal. of Fools.
LiDpincOtt's Magazine.

LiDpincott's Magazine.
Probably no two ministers in the
country are better known than Bishop
J. H. Vincent, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, and Rev. DR.. Z.
S. Henson, for many years pastor of
the leading Baptist church of Chi
cago.
Bishop Vincent wa. the leading
spirit in the Chautauqua semblies
and always on the lookout for at
tractive speakers. DIR. Henson had
prepared lecture entitled Fools" "
and he was eagerly engaged to de-
liver it at Chautauqua.
There was an immense audience
and DR.. Vincent introduced him,
saying:
Ladies' and Gentlemen: We are
to have a great treat this evening in
the shape Of lecture on Fools, by
one
Here there was look of consterna-
tion in the faces on the platform and
a ripple of laughter through the audi
ence. Pausing until this subsided
the speaker confined:
''Of the brightest men in the coun-
try"
This witty surprise caused tumul-
| tuous merriment, which did not sub
side for q moment after DR.. Henson
came forward There was a CLEAN
in his eve, and everybody was curl
Gus to hear how he would treat this
unique introduction. He began:
Ladies aud Gentlemen: | am not
half as big fool as DR.. Vincent"
Here the laughter broke forth
again with redoubled vigor- Paus,
ing, in his turn, until it had quieted
down. he continued:
Would have you believe.
The lecturer made graceful DO"
to his introducer, and the roar thai
greeted this ready sally was sucf
that it was some time before he coulc
begin his lecture.

No City and Country Dividing Line.
New Berne Journal.


In the march of twentieth century
progress the old dividing line be-
tween city and country is fast disap-
pearing.
OF course corporate limits coniine
or make the boundaries of a munich
pality, and beyond these stretches
the country until some other munich
pality is reached.
But the dividing line between city
and country is fast dissolving, and
becoming purely imaginary or ar
bitrary one.
The reason for this is easy to be
noted in the modern Improvements
taking place.
Paved roadways or macadamized
highways, no longer belong to the
city exclusively for the country
roads are being constructed as finely
as those in the cities. the one merg-
ing into the other without any dis
tinguishing mark.
This places the city within easy
driving distance of the farmer, max
ing his communication a daily one
with the city instead Of weekly or
monthly one, as in times past.
Then in the matter of mail faciIi-
ties, with the free rural delivery the
farmer finds his daily mail at hand
as convenient as does the city resi-
dent.
To farm in this day does not mean
isolation or the abandonment of per-
sonal or social comforts, for the
farmer has his daily newspaper and
other periodicals as quickly as does
the city resident.
The improved public highway
places him within easy reach of the
city. Schools and churches are
within sight of his house, and the
| telephone places the farm house
within call and speaking distance oi
every portion of the city.
