TOO GREAT A RISK.

In almost every neighborhood some one has died from an attack of collie or choler ra morbus, often before medicine could be procured or physician sum- moned. A reliable remedy for these diseas ses should be kept at hand. The risk is too great for anyone to take. Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar- rhoea Remedy has undoubtedly saved the lives of more people and relieved more pain and suffering than any other medicine in use. It can always be de pended upon. For sale by all drug gists. ~

wells which they were employed
by independent parties to drill.
This would be quite an easy mat

express willingness to accept
in payment for their work a GER

comes in, but it is notorious
fact that in hundreds of cases
when the we'll begins to flow oil
and there is every reason to be-
lieve it to spout, some accident
suddenly occurs of an extremely
serious nature. A section of
pipe breaks and cannot be re-
moved the drill gets out of order
or the well chokes. and, after
some weeks of apparently earn

the trouble the expert driller an
nounces the task is hopeless and

properly developed from the out

unseen and insidious forces been
thwarted long ago, the comm

would have been incalculable. AS

seeing the oil of Anse Labutte

Preserving Liberty.

from making exceptions of considerable i'm

And even among those who had special
interests of this kind there a growing
disposition to see that self-interest of indivi-
duals did not protect the general public as
fully had supposed.
In contest between organized capital and
organized labor, like that of the recent coal
strike, the interests of the consumer may be
sacrificed in the worst fashion by the total
cessation of production of one of the neces-
saries of life. Three important methods
have been suggested for giving better pro-
lection to the interests of the consumer.
First-The extension of the system Of
contracts between companies and their oper
atives, that incor porated capital sh all deal

fashion,.
Second-An extension Of the conspiracy

But without a reform in ethical
standards none of these remedies will really
meet the evil. If we really believed that
the laborer or capitalist who was pursuing
self interest as a business principle, to the
disregard of all other things, was doing
wrong we should have little trouble in put
ting him in prison on the where that
wrong wrought great public harm.
In order really to meet these evils we
need something more than contracts. con-
spiracy laws, or mnnicipalization of indus
try. We must get back to the conception of
some higher motive than self-interest, and
some better measure of value than self-ag
grandizement. In the centuries Immediately
past we have had to do with the problem of
securing liberty. To-day we have to face
the problem of preserving it. 1t is great
mistake to assume that the problem of to-
day is the easier of the two. The hardships
and dangers connected with it are less tangi-
BILE, but they on that account all the
more difficult to assume.
Freedom has always required the exer-
else of courage to defend it from the assaults
of its adversaries. 1t to-day requires the ex-
ercise of public spirit and personal self
to meet the perils which come
from the action of those who deem them
Sc Ives to be its friends. Only by the exer-
else of this widened sense of responsibility
and by the growth of this public spirit can
we hope that freedom, SO laboriously
out in the centuries past, may be
preserved through those to

Correct ideas don't take hold, -

that Republican institutions in
panoplied from the brow of JOve.
or dropped from the ETHEREAL
blue. This belief of course is in
correct, and is due to want of
knowledge of the fundamental
principles which underlie our
system of government, and the
sources from which these princi-
pies developed by a slow pro-
cess of evolution.
The Declaration of Independ
ence and the Constitution of the
United States did not spring
up spontaneously, or with the
touch of witch's wand, nor
were they made to order on short
notice; they represent the long
recognized inalienable rights of
man set down in blackand white,
and made positive by certain
specific declarations and prOvi
which declarations and
provisions were fought for
through blood and tears. Some
of the principal rights embodied
in these immortal instru IN ents
had not their origin during, just
prior to, or after the Revolution,
but were natural, inherent and
inalienable, and came from a
time when the memory of man
runneth not to the contrary
One of these rights, and the one
that the people should most
jealousy guard, is to peaceably
assem- BILE to make rules or laws
for the guidance the governance
and the good of all concerned.
This plan worked we'll during the
early days of New England, the
people at that time had a genuine
Democracy. But they came over
to America in groups and settled
in groups, and the method of
government was a natural and
practical one. To the south of
them, however, in the Old Virgi-
mia Colony, where the population
was sparse and the land divided
into plantations of enormous size,
the people had to adopt the plan
of repreSentatiOn-Of sending
delegates to some central point
because the town meeting was
impracticable. So it came about
in time that a compromise SyS-
TEN was adopted, particularly in
the belt or zone between New
England and Old Virginia, which
embodied features of both plans.
with a large leaning towards the
representative System-Our gov
eminent is called a representa-
tive government. This was made
necessary by the growing size
of the United States, the i'm
practicability of direct commu-
nication; hence the necessity for
delegating some one else to do
what the people could very well
do themselves under more favor
able circumstances.
Direct and quick communl-
cation is no longer a problem.
With railroads, telephone and
telegraph lines, the people of
this large and prosperous
are in direct touch with
each other both day and night,
and the people no longer desire
to delegate to others what they |
them selves are perfectly ca !
pable of doing. The people at |

G/C4NZIC CONSPIRACY.

Mail-Telegrnm, evidence of a gil
gantic conspiracy by the Stand
ard Oil Company to throttle the
oil wells of the Beaumont indie
pendent companies has just come
to light. Although this crimi-
nality has long since been sus-
pected by every one who is not
too blind to see and too dull to
feel that something was going
wrong, yet there have been no
proofs heretofore on which to
base a positive assertion. The
Mail however, gives
the following startling story OF a
big swindle that has been perpe-
trated by the oil trust:
THE independent oil compan-
les of Beaumont are the victims,
many of which have been wrecked
| by the Standards keen work.
Recently some of the leading
men of the wrecked or injured
companies determined to inves-
tigate, and in two days time
they raised $4,000 IN money
with which to push the work
The developments, it is alleged.
are astounding. 1t is claimed
that the numerous oil wells that
were apparently ruined by salt
water were put in their bad con-
ditiOn by the Standard Oil Com
pany.
AS fast as a company went to
the wall its property was bought
in by the trust. BY accident, it
is asserted, the desperate work
of the Standard company was
discovered recently. The Stand
ard Oil Company long ago built
pipe line from Beaumont to the
Gulf of Mexico. A pumping sta
ton was erected at Beaumont
and another at the Gulf. Oil was
pumped through the pipe line to
the Gulf and thence shipped to
various parts of the world. Sud
denly many wells of the indepen-
dent companies had salt water in
them.
The ruin of the owners is
part of the history of the field.
One day not long ago one of the
pumping stations got out of
working order and pumping to
the Gulf had to be suspended
while repairs were being made.
Suddenly wells that had been
giving out fully one-half salt
water began flowing nothing but
oil.
''This put the investigation on
foot. The Investigators, secretly,
at night, plugged up the pipe
line at the Beaumont end. They :
then drove several miles into the
country, dug into the ground
over the pipe line, made tap
ping into the line, and salt water
gushed into the air nearly 100
feet. 1t is asserted that the pres
sure was from the Gulf pumping
station and that salt water was
being pumped to Beaumont and
into the wells that the Standard
COmpany's cOnspirators desired
to wreck that there was no
pressure from the Beaumont end
because of the plugging Of the
pipe. The informant of the Mail
Telegram says that force of de-
tectives is at work, and arrests
will follow in connection with the
conspiracy.
There is reason to believe that
the above is not only founded on
fact, but that the operations of
emissaries of the Standard Oil
Company are not confined to
Beaumont alone. The ridiculous
fasco of about three years drill
ing at Anse Labutt without tan
gible results, when everybody
knows oil is there in abundance,
strong suspicion in the
minds of many that the oil trust s
is not only omnipotent, but omni-
present, in the shape of some ,
spy; and the people of this town
and parish and portion of Louis
lana must suffer in consequence. S
