healthy news. They seldom read

must feed on carrion, filtn, SANDER
They are like the mosquito that
spreads the yellow fever. They
imbibe the slanderous poison
themsely es and spread it where
ever they go.
The w,,rk of the masculine SIAN
derer is cEiehy in regard to bust

envy. Some man is mounting the
ladder of success more rapidly

of a bank or mercantile establish
ment "whisper" word of dis
credit about rival. Oh, the
lttleness of 1t!
The average writer can find no
words sufficiently strong to ex-
press his contempt for slanderers
both male and female--the foul,
forked-tongue sneaks. No Lam
guage is strong enough to describe
the Mephistrophelian meaness of
their hearts. No words can pic
ture the blackness of their ghoul-
ish souls as they rovel in the
swill tubs of their own slime. The
theft who steals your money is an
angel compared with the one who
robs you of your character. The
man or woman who goes into your
house, and by foul mouth slander,
steals your home happiness and
poisons the minds of your family
or friends, is a thousand times
worse than tho man who steals
your money. Thief, assassin, liar
ard coward are terms too mild to
apply to the tattler. No matter
if he or she does sit in the amen
corner and kick high tho straw in
religious revivals. Their hypoc-
risy only deepens the hell-dyed
hues of their ,Judas-like hearts. 1t
may be only whisper, and given
in the guise Of friendship or pity,
but it goes out on swift wings to
pierce some innocent soul.
The writer of this has seen so
much of the effects Of the tattler's
tongue that he can't speak with
moderation lie is a sworn enemy
of the tattler, the peddler of news,
the meddlesome breeder Of trouble
and vile character assassin. They

WHO ARE AGITATING9

"The agitation of county divis,
ion has been renewed, and strange
to say, the people from the lower
valley, with the exception of those
living at Solomonvillc, are decid-
edly in favor of the movement.
The people of 5oloWonville, as a
class, seem to realize that division
cannot long be delayed, and while
they are not in favor of it, they
will not put up a vigorous fight
against il provided the new county
is created from the west end, in
stead of the east end as heretofore
proposed. In other words they
want to be 10 the east end when
the new county is created, and
there is no reason why their wish
es in the matter should not be re
spected. The east end of the
county is not nearly as anxious
for division as il was few years
ago, but the people generally are
favorable to new county. If
our friends of the lower valley are
so anxious for new county they
should have it on certain lines.
The Era has always maintained
that small counties can be more
economically governed than larger
ones, but the volume of court
business has declined so rapidly
during the past few years that this
is no longer serious question
with the tax payers. The Era
will be more generous to the peo-
pie of the west end who now want
q new county, than they were to
this section when the same issue
was on a few years ago, and will
say to them, give us Solomonville,
then take your new county and go
in peace" Copper Era.
The agitation referred to by the
Era is almost wholly imaginary.
The people down here are not agi-
tating the question and the only
time il is discussed is when the
Clifton papers come down and tell
the people here how much they
want division, No doubt, division
will come sooner or later but
when il does come we imagine the
people OF the entire county will
have something to say as to "terms
and conditions" Dietation as TO
lines, etc, will not be tolerated,
coming from any one section or
from o few people.
If, as the Era suggests, the peo-
pie Of the east end do not want
county division, we imagine il will
be long time before it comes,
but when it does, if the people Of
Sclomonville wish to be included
in the new county, their wishes
will certainly be respected. The

A New Word

The following illustrates the use
of a new word that is one of the
most expressive lately added to
the language. A tews weeks ago
the jones hotel employed three
walters, and all went well until
one of the girls caught sight Of the
dining table:
do you do your own stretchin'?''
she demanded.
"Do we do our own what?"
asked the puzzled mistress.
"Stretchin'," repeated the new
girl.
II don't understand"
"Stretchin'," repeated the girl
for a second time. "Do you put
all the stuff on the table at meal
time and stretch for 1t, or do l
have to shuttle it around?"
Stretchin' in this sense deserves
a permanent place in the language.

Era might also come down and
take in the right-of-wey of the
G.. ", G. & N. to the present
county .ipg Don't suppose it had
thought Of that yet, however.
The Era has begun to prepare
the minds of its readers for the
time when 1t will "turn tail" on
the county division question, by
leading them to believe that the
people of tho valley want il. This
is not fact, but when the people
of the east end want to break
away, very few will object.
