which Horn bids fair TO pay the ex-

is LIBERTY DEAD?

Another horrible outrage has occur
red at Cripple Greek, where ID carpen-
ter. Thomas Stewart, was taken
from his home beaten over the head
by five men and shot in the back.
His crime was working at the build
ing of fence around the Golden Cy--
Gle mine. Can such crimes be per-
mitted and continued without menac-
ing the safety of the republic? Can
men dictate to another when, how.
and where they shall work? What
is our bcasted Independence, our free
dom to do what we please, when our
every action is governed by mob,
unusually made up of ignorant for
eigners. So many crimes have been
perpetrated in this state in the name
of unionism that it is wonder that
every free American does not rise in
his might and smite down all those
who oppose him. 1t is time that
some strong man at the head of our
state government shall say, these
crimes must not and shall not prevail
in this state any more.
Where is our boasted privilege of
pursuing, life, liberty and human
happiness, as we may see fit, as pro-
vided by the constitution of our coun-
try, when we may not work when or
where or for whom we please. The
sentiment of the state is becoming
aroused at these damnable outrages
to such an extent, that revolution
would almost be preferable, than to
sit by and see some honest workman,
desiring work, to command an honest
living, beaten to death.

tion of the arid west, who will have
their own pet problems to present for
the consideration of the congress. but
we feel that Notwithstanding that
there will be men of splendid abili-
ties there present, that Mr.. DeLong
need feel no hesitancy in meeting
them in the field of debate.
What sweeping, unanswerable ar
gument he can make, when addressing
those able men from the sixteen arid
states of the west, when he says that
the great Grand river carries more
water toward the ocean, than all the
rivers of the eastern slope combined
and that through the Grand river
country it can be harnessed. such as
no other stream in the west can be
harnessed and bring under cultivation
thousands of acres of the best land
under the sun.
We know of no better representa-
tive to send to the congress than Mr..
DeLong and we hope that our affairs
will be we'll presented there in an
able and comprehensive form, such as
we know that Mr.. DeLong is perfectly
able to do.

Physical Decay In Lower Classes.

The British government has appointed
a commission to inquire into the alleged
physical deterioration of the lower
classes in the United Kingdom.
Almeric Fitzroy, clerk of the privy
council. is the chairman. He is assisted
by the former head of the army gym
nastic school. the inspector of reforma-
tories-the- chief Of the navy recruiting
service, statisticians and others. The
appointment of the commission was the
outcome OF debate in the house of lords
during which Lord Meath and the bishop
of Nippon drew attention TO the terrible
conditions prevailing among the poorer
classes. The duke of Devonshire, lord
president of the council, then admitted
that Great Britain's military and indus
trial outlook was seriously threatened
and promised an inquiry into the matter.
The subject was also brought up in the
house of commons by Sir William R. An
son. parliamentary secretary to the
board of education. who declared $4,000
children now attending London schools
we're - s.cally unfit for IL ruc''or.

ical service reports that one man in every
three offered as recruits had to be re-
jected. The appointment of tie commits

is A CURIOUS CRAFT.
That Built by a Virginia Preacher

How He Came TO COntrive
the Strange ship.

John X. Leedy, Dunkard preacher,
70 years OF age, native of Rocking
ham county, Virginia, is without doubt
one Of the greatest believers in dreams
that ever lived. Through what he
claims to be a divine inspiration he has
been enabled to invent the "Leedy I'M
sinkable ship"
Asked how he had come to contrive
the ship, Mr.. Leedy replied;
Several years ago. just after one Of
the big ocean liners loaded with human
freight went to the bottom of the At
lantic ocean and all on board were
lost, | had dream. In this dream
| talked with an angel. The messen-'
ger Of God painted a large picture OF
a ship and commanded me TO set about
and construct such vessel for the
good Of mankind.
Il thought but little of the dream
until two or three nights afterward.
when the angel again appeared and
directed me to do as had been told.
and for second time large picture
Of ship, which was to be my model.
was painted. | gave the matter more
serious thought on the following day,
and for several nights thereafter m,
dreams were of nothing but the ship.
| read my Bible and found certain pas
sages which told me must get &c
work. The result of my labors is what
will be known to the world as 'Leedy's
unsuitable ship
"You ask me to describe this great
life-saving invention.
"The hull is comprised Of an outer
and inner casing. the inner casing com
posed of copper plates, soldered to-
gether, thus making 1t water and air
tight. Between the outer and inner
castings from a short distance above tn,
lower deck there is placed filling OF
coal tar or some other suitable ma
terial, The lower deck is composed OF
two layers of metal soldered together
thus making the hold of the vessel air
tight.
Between the ribs OF the vessel and
between the outer and inner castings
above the lower deck are empty spaces
which are adapted tn be closed by arr
tight coverings, and communicating
with these spaces are air tubes for sup
plying and COMPRISING air In the
spaces, the air being supplied by ar
air-compressing engine on the main
deck.
ION both sides Of the ship and out
side Of the hull are arranged a series
Of bags which can be run up and down
the sides of the vessel by means of 2
chain and pulley on each side. Should
the ship run on a sand bar or rock these
bags may be sent to the bottom of the
ship, and there filled with compressed
air, thus lifting the ship of the bar
or rock.
"The coal bunkers and various other
compartments about the ship are adapt
ed to be transformed into compressed
air chambers at will. so 1t is seen that
even though the ship should spring a
leak Of very serious nature, her bilge
pumps and many air chambers would
prevent her sinking. Her hold. on &C
| count Of its air and water-tight con-
struction, would be a vast air tank that
would be impossible to sink"
