had organized to have our wages raised
and the price of our necessaries went
up even faster than the wages. This
wage system is all wrong, and we don't
have any use for the consumers of our
products If they will not do anything
for u.s. Now let US organize Labor
Exchange and only sell our labor for
equal toll and NOT CHEAT ourselves
by accepting that soft, glttering, and
almost worthless metal, which neither
FEEDS, WARNS or SHELTERS, If
we had worked for ourselves from the
beginning instead of working for gold
we would be we'll fixed to-day. Let
Jack alone, and we will see If he can
catch fish with his stuff as easily as he
HAS DIPPED US. We can make our
own checks keep account OF each ones
share in the work and facilitate and ex-
change"
Early the NEXT morning everything
was in hustle. Three new huts were
started and everybody worked with un-
usual zeal and energy. When Jack
came to hire them offering as high as
| fifty dollars each for a days work no
one paid any attention to him. Seeing
he could not get their services in that
way, he took Sam aside and offered to
loan him money to carry on the enter
| prise in hand if he would allow him to
SHARE AT THEIR TABLE and of
! their products for interest because OF
the Capital" invested "No," said Sam,
No one WOULD WORK FOR TT NOW.
None want it. As an exchange medium
we can take less expensive material,
OF OUR OWN MAKE, THUS SAVING
INTEREST and much unnecessary
work, If you want to share our wealth
you must also SHARE OUR TOLL.
For labor only will we yield our labor
and its products and on NO OTHER
CONDITION.. Jack laid his heavy
purse aside as relict of past iniq uities
and went to work like an honest man,
doing his share for the privilege of eat
ing at the table and sharing the wealth
created by labor"
Do the readers of the News see the
point of the foregoing fable? Read it
carefully several times. Properly un-
derstood and worked out it will solve
the labor problem. Again l say READ
1T and study it until you find the mar.
row in the bone. Twenty good far
mers, blacksmith, shoemaker, carpen-
ter and wood workman can create good
times in any neighborhood by sticking
together for the common good. They
can do this in spite of SCARCE MON.
Ely. Strikes only make matters worse,
no difference which wins, labor or cap
ital. Iflabor receives higher wages ii
only adds to the burden of those who
use the products Of their labor.

RAGEDY DUE TO MISTAKE

WHITWELL, Tenn, Sept. ~. --Ern-
est Walker shot and killed Henry Dea-
kins last Saturday near Dunlap. Some
trouble arose between Walker and John
Hobbs of Dunlap, during ballgame,
and some blows were struck, but the
matter was settled apparently. When
the Whitwell team started home it was
warned to be on the lookout as Hobbs
friends might intercept them. About
two miles this side OF Dunlap the hors-
es attached to the livery rig in which
Walker was riding baked and just then
Deakins rode up and asked in loud voice
for Walker 1t being dark Walker did
not recognize him, but supposed him tc
be Hobbs and shot with the above re,
suit. Walker and Deakins were cousins
and good friends.
The trouble arose between Walker and
Hobbs who did not belong to the ball
team by getting in Walkers way and
impeding his stunning. Both were taker
in custody and the long wait ensuing
ing before the calling of the case before
a justice caused the delay of the Whit
we'll team in returning to this city.

The Annual Reunion Of Post So, g. A
R., ana their families and friends in re-
sponse to invitations, was held here
Saturday, and was thoroughly enjoyed
by over 500 people and was success in
every particular.
Participants began to arrive in the
early morning, reinforced later by teams
and vehicles of all kinds from which
we're extracted baskets and various
packages, the contents of which proved
beneficial later.
The Post held meeting at 1890, and
besides other business reinstated one
member and added two new members to
the Post. An interesting and crafty
ing feature in connection with the
meeting was the presence of Maj Geo.

Commander of the G. A. R.
Promptly at noon around we'll loaded
tables at the Town Hall the large as
semblage gathered. A blessing was
asked by Rev. j. L. Clonch of Pikeville,
and the attack began, and continued
uninterruptedly for three-quarters of an
hour, but there was plenty to eat for ev-
erybodv and the supply of coffee under
charge of Comrade Haynes met all de-
mands.
After a short recess the meeting was
called to order by Commander Hill aud
the postpraudial exercises began. The
singing had been arranged to be given
by the Jasper contingent same as last
year, but owing to the sickness of Mr.
Eugene Smith the choir was unable to
fill its engagement, To fill the vacan-
