Labor n Law.

One more Labor Day has gone
into history and the record
shows a vast improvement in the
condition Of. the laboring man
now and fifty years ago. Then
men worked in competition with.
slave labor and more than half
the country regarded the laborer
as little better than the slaves.
whose wages regulated his own.
Then the laborer worked from
sun to sun. Now he works eight
hours sun or no sun. Then he
was designated as the mudsill of
aOciety now he is the most inter
esting portion of community.
Then the lawmakers first consid.
Grafton was the security of CAPT
tai and the subordination of la
Tor, and for more than fifty years
before our Civil war this was the
main object of all Legislation state
and national.
Since the Civil conflict the
greatest object of Legislation has
been TO secure the protection of
labor against the unjust and OPP
pressive encroachments of CAPT.
tai without paralyzing business
interests Of both labor and CAPT.
tai.

Nevada. Jan. 20.-A verdict Of one
cent did not make Mrs. Addie Shaffer
very much richer, but it made George
HALEY, whom was suing for $4,000
damages for alleged SANDER, consider
ably poorer, because Of the large
amount of costs involved in the case.
The case has been on trial in the dis
trict court here this week, and after
celebrating for twenty-six hours the
jury brought In verdict for the plain
tiff for one cent. The Newt ShaHer
family have been tenants on one OF Mr..
Halley's farms for the past five years.
Mr.. HALEY is a man who has great
deal of trouble with his many ten
ants and has more litigation than any
other half dozen men in the county.
After having some difficulty over a
legged and brought forth half dozen
witnesses that he had called them
thieves and other names of a like ma
ture. Mr.. HALEY seldom secures YER
dict in case, and the small amount Of
the verdict given Mrs. Shaffer was a
surprise to many.
Immediately following this case an
other was tried, wherein Shaffer, him.
self was the plaintiff against the same
defendant for a like sum on the same
grounds. AS was the case in the first
trial he also received a nominal YER
dict of 81, throwing the costs onto Mr..
HALEY.

Cherokee, Jan. 20.-The jury in the
case of Samuel Flinders against A. c.
of Flinders wife today returned YER
dict of $4,000 in favor of the plain
tiff Flinders sued for $4,000. The
case has been on trial for more than
week and has been one of the most
sensational ever brought before the
Cherokee county court.
Bailey and Flinders are rich farmers
lived on adjoining places, and old resi-
dents and life-long friends, both hav-
ing been born and raised in Dekalb.
III. The families were very intimate.
The trial has been a succession OF
startling frank confessions as to the
state of affairs. Bailey used to drive
past the Flinders home and take Mrs.
Flinders driving to town. She even
went to Sioux City and Alta with him
on shopping trips, and her husband
suspected nothing. The discovery of
letter one day by Flinders. first awake
ened him to the true state of affairs
1t was in his wifes handwriting. and
began:
."Darling Sweetheart-Sam was on
the warpath last night. Will explain
later
1t was addressed to Bailey. Flinders
on reading it at once hunted up Bailey
and they talked the matter over. Ball
ey, it was claimed, admitted everything
and wanted Flinders to give up Mrs.
counsel She said she preferred Bail
| ey. Several of these curious consulta-
| lions were held before Flinders finally
declared he would not give up his wife.
Bailey was married man, but he
thought his wife would be willing to
give him up.
| Negotiations being finally broken Off
| the suit was started by Flinders.
| Meanwhile Flinders and his wife lived
in their own house, but apart. The
son stands by his father and the daugh-

Tense to the suit is that it is practically
blackmail, in view of the fact that Bail
| ey allowed his relations to go on SO
openly for years. ALI the parties are
