The Year Just Closed
Will Never Be Forgotten
BY Those to Whom
PAINE'S
Celery Compound
Cove New Life 0Id H1DlIReSS.

The year just closed has been a me-
morable one for Paines Celery Com
pound. a multitude of men and women
weakened, nervous, rundown and suf-
fering the pains and agOnies of disease
have had their burdens removed and
their feet firmly planted on the solid
rock Of health.
Stirring political events of the past
year, the colossal efforts of trusts and
monopolies. the recent miners strike.
and other nota BILE events will be quite
forgotten in a few weeks or months.
Not so with the strength after weak
ness, the new life after'years of suffer-
ing the robust health after wasting
disease, the permanent cure after the
verdict of "incurabe" pronounced by
the physician. These glorious remem-
brances and blessings, and the happy
assurance that Paine's Celery Com
pound makes sick people, WELL VIII
be indelibly craven on the mind as
long a life lasts.
The victories of Paine's Celery Com
pound over disease in the past year
are supported by thousands of testi-
monial letters from the best people of
the land Medical journals have noted
the blessed work. and physicians have
been compelled to endorse the life-sav-
ing virtues of earth's best medicine. 1t
matters not. dear reader, how bad your
case may be, give Paine's Celery Com
pound an honest trial, and you Will
surely share the blessings it has be-
slowed on others.

EMPLOYEES OPPOSE
THE EIGHT-HOUR BILL

Washington, Jan. 16.-In a request
recently made by a number of the
employees of the Washington navy
over time, a severe blow has been
struck at the eight-hour bill. and con-
siderable embarra ssment caused the
labor leaders who are advocating the
passage of this measure by the SEN
ate. The situation demonstrates what
opponents of the bill have always
argued that the absolute rightly of
an eight hour day is not to the liking
of many of the laboring men it seeks
to benefit, and that a working man
sires to give his faculties full rein I'M
hampered by an arbitrary law forcing
e him to ccnfne his energies within
certain time
In the Washington navy yard there
are nearly 2,400 employees, and except
in cases of grave necessity or emerg-
ency, they are not permitted to work
more than eight hours i'm any one cal
endar day. The Spanish War,of course,
created a notab BILE exception to this
rule and during that strenuous period
the men worked day and night, exhib-
iting a patriotic zeal which was most
substantially rewarded in the liberal
pay allowed them by the government,
which pays time and a half on all
over time.
At present the navy yard is far be-
hind in its work, especially in it's out
put of gun mounts and other ordnance
equipments, which must be ready
when the new cruisers in process of
construction are completed. and in
order to make this possible a large
number of additional mechanics will
be employed and the entire force of
the navy yard divided into three
shifts, working eight hours each.
When this condition became known to
the men a number of them, inspired no
doubt by a very lively memory of the
extra money they made during the
war period mentioned, advanced the
suggestion that the force be divided into
two shifts, working twelve hours each,
instead of three or eight hours. How
ever, no attention will be paid to the
wishes of the men in this matter as
to work them overtime would be clear
ly a violation of the law, which de-
clares the employment of extra hours
must arise from grave emergency, and
the present condition cannot be con-

HASKELL IN THE TOLLS.

Wallace w. Haskell, of Atlanta,
Georgia agent for the Union Casualty
and Surety Company was indicted by
the grand Jury and arrested by the dep
uty sheriff Wednesday afternoon on
a charge of larceny after trust. 1t
is alleged that he failed to turn over
premiums belonging to the company
which he had collected. BY the terms
of his contract, it is said he was to
have one-third of all premium lie
collected. but he failed to account for
S57170 over and above his share of
the collections. A civil suit has been
fled against Haskell and the sureties

strued by the navy yard officials into
one.
The significant phase of the situation
! is that these navy yard employees, an
members of labor organizations, would
work over time if they could. despite
| the sweeping statement of President
/ Gompers, of the Federation of Labor,
! that laboring men are satisfied with
eight hours a day, and have no desire
/ to work overtime. Among the 2,4OO men
| in the navy yard, many are opposed TO
overtime. but an investigation develop
ed that the latter are in the minority,
and also that this class are more for
tunate than many of their fellows in
practicing a better system of domestic
economy which enables them to be
above making extra money.
One of the employees in the navy
yard, in discussing the question, said:
Overtime would be Godsend to many
of US. who by reason of sickness,
death. and other misfortunes, find our
selves involved in debt, and in order to
meet these obligations, we are COM
PEELED to stint and deny ourselves,
where, if we were allowed to make ex-
ira money, there would be an easy So
, luton to the problem. So far as l
am concerned. | would like to be able
to work the extra four hours, and it
would be a great benefit to my family.
day can count up the money he is go
ing to make for d hundred years to
come, and it puts limit on a mans
abilities that is almost maddening at
times, especially when you need the
money"
Many of the employees of the navy
yard feel the same way a bout this mat
, ter, but are wary in expressing them
selves for fear of involving themselves
with the unions. 1t is very unfortunate
for the advocates of the bill that any
man working on an eight hour basis
should have declared himself in favor
of over time, especially employees in
government workshop, where every
, thing is conducted on a most liberal
scale.
The effect of this declaration on
members of the Senate, who have had
the matter called to their attention.
has been very pronounced. promi-
nent Western senator said the other
night, when told of the desire mani
tested by the navy yard employees, Il
consider that there are men working
under the most favorable circum-
stances who want to work more than
eight hours in spite of the hue and cry
raised against such sentimen T."
AT present there seems no possbili-
ty of the eight hour bill coming be-
fore the Senate this session, as mat
ters of much graver importance will
occupy all that body's time during the
few weeks that remain of this Com
gress.

A number of the chief grain mer-

the organization of grain exchange
to regulate the business in this city and
to eliminate, so far as is possible a
number of evils which as individuals
they now suffer. Among the chief of
these evils is the fact that local mer-
chants are now, as one of them ex-
pressed 1t, at the mercy of the ship
pers of the West, and are forced to
take thelr terms, weights and prices.
