No. vn,onu.n But An.yony.

The published statement of Gov
srnor Peabody concerning the labor
troubles in this state is "plsin un-
vanished tale" that should be wide
ly published and generally read Is
it would disabuse the minds Of many
who have criticized without knowing
the facts. He shows that he has
not been fighting or opposing labor
unions o. has been often charged,
except the Miners Federation which
is essentially criminal organization
and has left trail OF blood and vic.
lence wherever it has gained q foot
hold. There are very few right
minded persons now who do not ad
NIT that the governor did the right
thing in calling out the militia when
he did. The only complaint is that
they were used in an unlawful and
improper manner. The chief criti-
cism is that Of deporting men from
their homes without any specific
charge being made against them. II
is difficult to justify this to those NOT
actually on the ground, but there
was more justification for it than
most persons are willing to admit.
Most Of the law abiding members OF
the Federation, aud this comprises a
large majority, had either gone else
where voluntarily or they had re-
nounced their allegiance to the orde,
and gone to work at home. But
there WAS another class who loafed
around home, lived off the relief fund
of the order and constantly sought
to stir up trouble. After the Inde-
pendence outrage, where thirteen
men were murdered outright, public
feeling was wrought up to white
heat and had it not been for the
interference of the troops these agi-
tators would have suffered far worse
than they did at the hands of the
militia. 1t was a question Of get
ting rid Of those men or keeping a
standing army there indefinitely to
keep the peace. 1t was doubtless
straining the legal authority of the
executive, may have been wrong un-
der the circumstances, but the effect
was to break the power of the most
dangerous organization that ever
cursed the state, restore peace and
order and establish the right of
every man to work or carry on his
business unmolested, and if this state
OF affairs proves permanent the pub
lie will endorse the governors policy
and forget any mistakes that may
have been made in carrying it out

Theodore Roosevelt Of America.
To an exceptional degree the re-
publican candidate for the presidency
is representative Of the whole coun-
try.
It is much that the nominee of
one Of the great parties should be
familiar from actual experience and
personal acquaintance with the con-
ditions, the needs and desires Of that
great section that stretches from the
Mississippi TO the Pacific. Other
prssidsnts and other candidates have
not always been so fortunate in their
knowledge of the western half of the
country and of the Americans inhab-
iting that region.
But It il far more that Mr.. Roose.
vslt should combine in q most re-
markable manner the spirit Of the
two great sections Of the country,
and that in him the energy and the
impulse of the west should be blend

The Treating

The American treating custom is to be blamed for
large amount of intemperance.
The average man who drinks occasionally is good
fellow He goodhearte But the desire to foster good
fellowship and disposition to be generous frequently
the causes of his undong.
The custom Of 'settng up the drinks is the cause OF
much overwhelming if such term may be used. man
goes into the saloon He wants only drink. gang
of his friends in. He can not get away without
drinking with all of them That is the ethics of the bar
Before he leaves he is filled up
IF one is determined to drink land there are millions
who seem thus deermned) the safer procedure is the
'Dutch treat the kind where every treats himself
Our German fellow citizens follow this custom largely
and one seldom German much the worse for liquor
The man who follows the treating custom is probably
moral coward He is afraid of offending. The conven-
tions demand that he should "set em up to the boys
and he is too weak to refuse He fears being called
eight wad."
The man who bows to the treating custom is probably
also fool He acts foolishly He drinks when he has
no DESIRE He makes occasion where there is sensi
BILE excuse. In competition of generosity he makes
sw barrel of himself to please his fellows He prostrates
the virtue of friendship and makes it vice.
Do not drink at ALL Abstinence is the only safe
If you must drink, go it alone. Make every occasion
of it Dutch treat.
