OPPOSES FENCE LAW
A Citizen of Charlotte Thinks if Would Work Hardship on
 the Hill Farmers.
To The Newark Journal:

The minds of the people aro considerably agitated over these fencing petitions, which are being presented to the land owners of this part of the county. When the majority of farmers in county or state are permitted to view the field of prosperous future, there is missile hurled at them by some one, ever ready to harass the peacefullness of the people.
 What does this erroneous fene- ing idea propose to do for it's ad- herantsl Can there possibly be a higher degree of civilization reach ed by having itl Will 1t place tho hill farmers in a better positions What will be the chances for the betterment of the landowner who has all of his land under cultiva- tion!
 We will admit that in some in stances 1t might be for the better ment. But it Is obvious that what works for the good in one section of the country, has tendency to lessen or degrade the peace and happiness in other parts of the same country. For example. the construction of the dams along White river prove profitable to navigation, while lands opposite these constructions suffer greatly from overfows.
 The thing that does the grea test possible good for the greatest number of people, is the thing we should inculcate in the minds of the people. The proposed stock law fence, no doubt, would be to the advantage of those who live along the edge of the bottoms, who already have to keep up their stock. But while this compara- tive few thus enjoy this advantage. there would be ten to one in the hills who would have to sacritce all surplus change to meet the new requirements of the new con- ditions.
 Who will enjoy the good of such an undertaking; the farmers or the men who possess large amounts of land in the bottoms that Is not tillable and only fit for pasturage2 Those men in one or two years time will have in their possession all of the surplus stock, for they are the only ones who can con- struct such large pastures. You will either have to sell your cattle to them at very low prices or else pay from one to two dollars per head month for pasturage, and even at these low prices, 1t wilt take your COW and calf at the end of the year to pay the pasturage.
 It is only laying the foundation for a monopoly'' and q general depression for the poor man. The cost of such an undertaking would be several thousand dollars, be- sides the vast amount of expenses that would be incurred yearly thereafter. Let's see if we could not devise some other plan more beneficial to the general advance ment and upbuilding of our coun- try. Suppose we put this vast amount of money that would be thus expended into our presens school system. Pay our teachers more for their laborious work; equip our school houses with bet ter apparatus. There could be several hundred dollars expended upon our public highways, whica

Grays Harbor Lumber Shipments
Seriously Curtailed.
ROUTES ARE CUT OFF
Sailors Strike Forces Number of Mills
to Stop Lumber Shipments
by Water Cars Are
Being Used.

ABERDEEN, Wash, July ga record
of the lumber shipments from Gray's
Harbor for June shows that the sailors
strike has interfered materially with the
shipment of lumber by water from this
port. Several of the mills on the Harbor
report no cargo shipments in June.
Among these are the Gray's Harbor
Company, of Cosmopolis; the National
Lumber & Box Company, Of Hoquiam,
and the Anderson & Middleton and Union
mills, Of this place. Of course, these
mills have made shipments by rail, but
all of them send out large cargoes under
usual condition.
The strike situation remains about the
same, with no encouraging features. The
new Gray's Harbor Stevedoring Company
is having all the work it can do in load
ing ships that come in with non-union
crews.
The injunction that it brought against
the Sailors Union the Longshoremen's
Union and several in individuals has been
tried before Judge Irwin at Montesano,
who has not yet rendered decision
on it.
Most of the mills that were closed
down for a week or two by the strike
have resumed operations and are run
ing full time.
Some of them took advantage Of the
enforced idIeness to make repairs and
install machinery.
Prospects are good for the erection
Of another shingle mill on the south side
of the Chehalis River on land leased
from A. J. West and J. A. Hood It will
have a capacity of 100000 daily.

DREYFUS INSULTED
AT CLUB
UNKNOWN OFFICER PUBLICLY IN
SUITS DREYFUS IN PROMINENT
CLUB BY SHAPING HIS FACE
REFUSES REPLY TO INSULTER

NEW YORK. July ga dispatch to
the Herald from Paris says:
just after being honored by President
Fallieres at the Elysee Palace yesterday
Major Dreyfus was publicly insulted in
the Cercle Militaire, one of the most ex-
elusive clubs in Paris, by command
ment who slapped him in the face. This
brought about an immediate clash in the
club and will tend to revive disputes
over the Dreyfus affair throughout
France.
1t was at reception at the Cercle
militaire to the Thirteenth Regiment OF
artillery that Major Deyfus and COM
mandmant large made their first appear
ance in a military gathering since the
recent court verdict. As soon as Major
Dreyfus came into the salon. an officer,
whose name is not yet known. ran up
and slapped him in the face. The major
did not reply.
Instantly there was almost riot in
the club rooms, two groups being formed
of sympathizers and opponents of Drey-
fus. 1t appears that the incident was
prearranged and the officer who attacked
Dreyfus is said to have declared that he
wound refuse to fight duel in order to
bring opprobium on Major Dreyfus and
force him to retire from active service.
Several other disagreeable incidents
are said to have occurred in the club
rooms last night but the doors were clos
ed and no one allowed to enter. The
porter refused to give any particulars of
the commotion.
