Danger Of Colds and Grip.

The greatest danger from colds
and grips is their resulting in
pneumonia. If reasonable care IS
used, however, and Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy taken, all danger
will be avoided. Among the tens
of thousands who have used this
remedy for these diseases we have
yet to learn Of single case having
resulted in pneumonia, which show
conclusively that it is a certain
preventive Of that dangerous disea-
Sc. It will cure cold or an attack
Of the grip in less time than any
other treatment. It is pleasant
and safe to take. For sale by

say that the remedy acted as q
most agreeable surprise is putting
it very mildly. I had no idea that
it would or could knock out the

THE WATER QUESTION.


Most of the time at the regular
meeting of the city council Thurs
day night of last week was taken
up with the all absorbing water
question. A lengthy petition was
presented to have an election called
to vote bonds to the extent of
$4,000 to construct waterworks
and furnish the town with noun
tain water. After some discussion
action on the petition was deferred
until Tuesday night of this week
when an ordinance was presented
AT this meeting no action was
taken other than resolution being
passed to appoint a committee of
seven to investigate the Dough-
spoon proposition. AS the water
there, at this season of the year,
must be greater than at any other
time it is difficult to see what
the investigation will amount to,
other than to ascertain the distance.

The Delta County Library.

The members OF the Delta County
Library associatiot and all persons in
terested in the same will hold meeting
at the X. p. hall next Monday evening
at o'clock.
It will be remembered that this or
ganization was effected about two years
ago at which time the Masonic library
was turned over to the. association on
certain conditions.
Miss Ella New was put in charge Of
the library. which is kept in depart
ment Of her store.
The citizens OF Delta and vicinity are
aware that every line Of industry is pro-
greseing and will appreciate the impor-
tance OF keeping up our library and
educational interests.
The meetings held two years ago
were characterized by lack OF interest
on the part of the public. Much credit
is due the few who labored to establish
the library in spite OF the indifference
OF the masses Let US not be satisfied
with promoting the material interests
alone in our city. The matter should
be discussed as means OF culture and
education for the young and a source OF
pleasure to those whose tastes are
already formed.
The replenishment Of this library. it's
consolidation with the high school
library and election OF certain officers
have been suggested for discussion in
the meeting. The fact that no meeting
has been held for two years is sufficient
reason for calling one at this time.

The negro preachers and lead
ers in many sections of the east
are acting very unwise in their re-
marks regarding recent lynchings.
They seldom condemn these helm
Gus crimes for which these inhu-
man brutes are made to suffer.
They don't seem to take into con-
sideration that the negro has com
mited any crime, but are rather in
clined to make a martyr out OF
the very lowest class of criminals
that ever inhabited any section of
the world. The advice they give
the negro in many cases, serves to
make him worse rather than better
and in defending or refusing to
condemn him put themselves in
the same class with these criminals.
These lynchings will continue as
long as these crimes are commit'e +.
But the time will come, if these
crimes continue to increase, when
the white people of the United
States will condemn the negro as
a race. They have so far refused
to punish only those committing
the crimes But these negro lea
ders will only hssten the day, when
the whites especially, of southern
states will believe that one class of
crime is universal with the negro
and it is beginning to look that way.
The negre holds the key to the
situation and can either cease these
crimes and prevent these lynching
or else the day will come when
the black race will be damned as
a whole and that day is not far
distant.

TREND TOWARD ARBITRATlN.

Ont Of the divergent results OF
the numerous recent conflicts be-
tween labor and capital, which
have been aptly designated "the
industrial unrest" certain definite
progress toward more stable con-
diticns can already be seen. All
these steps seem to lead in the
direction of arbitration as the
remedy for labor troubles and in
its more general if not universal
acceptance as the only alternative
to protracted and costly industrial
warfare. The more far sighted
leaders on both sides of the con-
troversy have forseen this out
come and have been doing and are
still doing all in their power to
promote that end. This is true
more particularly of the conserva-
tive newspaper press which has
from the first, been advising
mutual concession and conciliation
through the mediation of arbitra.
ton boards made up of men with
no direct personal interest in the
dispute submitted to them. The
arbitration advocates naturally
drew upon themselves the fire Of
the extremists of both the unions
and the employers associations,
but in the industrial field, as else
where, con servatism is sure to win
out.
The trend toward arbitration is
unmistakable, A characteristic
example of the common ground
occupied comes from Washing
ton, where the differences in the
building trades are to be adjusted
under an agreement by which all
grievances, no matter what they
may refer to, arising between en-
ployer and empioye in the building
trades will be submitted to board
of arbitration without interruption
OF building operations during the
dispute or controversy. The
agreement subscribed to provides
that "this board shall consist of
ten members, equally divided be

tween the associations represented.
The members of the board shall be
elected annually by their respective
associations at their regular meet
ings for the election of officers.
Whenever any matter is referred
to the board, before considering the
case, it (the board) shall agree up
on an umpire and the umpire thus
chosen must not be connected with
the building trades. He may act
as presiding officer and shall have
the deciding vote The duty Of
this board shall be to consider
such matters of mutual interest and
concern to employers and work
men as may be regularly referred
oft by either of the parties con-
cerned and to transmit its conclu-
sions thereon to each association
concerned for its government.
Special meetings shall be held
when either of the parties desire to
submit any questions to the board
for settlement. A majority vote
shall decide all questions and three
members of the board represent
ing each party shall constitute a
quorum. In no case shall any
matter be considered with an ,,n-
equal representation" AS mat
ter of further detail no member of
the arbitration board directly in
terested in the matter under con-
sideration is eligible to serve on
that particular case and his place
is temporarily taken py substitute
appointed by the president of the
association he represents.
The substantial points in this
arrangement are the same as those
nnder negotiation in the building
trades in New York City, where
they seem about to be accepted.
They are applicable to all localities
and can be readily adapted to all
cities throughout the country.
The most active agent in procuring
the agreement in Washington was
Samuel Gompers, who had also
presented a similar proposition
quite recently for mediation be-
tween Chicago strikers and their
employers. As everyone who has
studied the labor problem knows,
it requires only a few successful
experiments under such an arbitra-
ton scheme to pave the way for
the adoption of the plan generally
and if it succeedes, as it seems sure
to do in aettling the ugly strikes
in several big cities like Washing
ton and New York, permanent ar
bitration boards will become an
established part of the machinery
that governs the relations between
labor and capital in this country,
in which the constituent elements
will be neither the individual wage
worker nor the individual employer
but the trades unions on the one
side and the employers associa-
ton on the other. When that
time comes we will be reasonably
free from disastrous strikes and
lockouts, at least for trivial causes.
