Des Are Items.

On last Wednesday night some
one broke into the depot in this
town and stole four boxes of whis-
key, several pairs of shoes, one
sack of bacon and several other
articles. They forced open the
freight room door and got in. This
has been going on for quite a
while, yet no one has ever caught
them. The detective and constable
were here and arrested several
parties, but finally turned them
loose, finding no evidence strong
enough to hold them. There is
enough stolen here every month to
pay a night operator. The rail-
road company rather pay the
losses than keep a night operator
here.
Our town was overrun with
drummers last week. They report
business Dublin Jul neighboring
towns.

morning, from injuries received in
a cyclone, which swept through
this section about two years ago,
demolishing her house on Nc
Kinzie creek and inflicting per-
manent injuries upon her. She
has been a cripple ever since and
has been confined to her bed most
of the time. But in spite of the
pain she underwent almost con-
stantly she bore her misfortune
with patience and fortitude. She
was brought to Des Arc Thursday
and laid to rest beside her hus-
band, who had preceded her about
five years. She was born in Vir-

| READ, occasionally, of some
Senator Or Congressman saying:
eyes, the President usurps a little,
and encroaches sometimes upon
the legislative branch of the gov
eminent. So far as Roosevelt is
concerned, and so long as he is
President, | have no fear of evil
resulting; but with some other
man in the Executive chair, il
might be dangerous" This I call
boot-licking, pure and simple.
The official who usurps is always
to be tearedfor his very usurpation.
The just official, the right-thinking
official, the prudent official, finds
enough to do in executing his
sworn duty. I don't say that the
President does reach out after the
power that is not lawfully his; but,
if he does, he is wrong, be he

TO THE COMMON PEOPLE
CONTINUANCE OF THE SUPPLY
OF COAL is URGED.

Information was received at the local
headquarters of the Citizens Industrial
Association of America today that the
following communication, addressed to Mr.
George f. Baer, chairman of the anthra-
cite operators committee. was laid before
the coal operators at their meeting Tues
day. 1t is said to voice the sentiment of
the third party. the people, now organized
and In effective working order"
Speaking for the National Citizens In
dustrial Association of America, and rep
resenting the organization of citizens of all
classes, with local organizations in some
500 cities of this country, we respectfully
urge upon the mine owners that they
steadfastly insist upon continuance of the
supply of coal to the common people upon
the findings of the coal commission APP
pointed by President Roosevelt acting as
the executive of the people az large. Our
cessation of supply of this public utility be
allowed. The interference of the labor
trust in this matter and their stoppage of
supply is unwarranted and contrary to pub
lie policy.
Alleged Right Denied.
I'VE deny their right to deprive the poor
man or the rich of their supply of fuel in
an effort to force additional money from
the pockets of the people to further en-
are eighty million citizens in this country
who should not be forced to do without
this necessity of life to further the inter
ests of perhaps 10000 miners. ruled by
what has developed, under leadership, into
a labor trust pure and simple
I'VE must urge and insist upon the mines
being opened and the supply of coal con-
tinued at once. under the rules laid down
by the coal commission, and If the mem
bers of the Mine Workers Union or trust,
do not care to sell their labor under the
rules then let them stand aside and per-
NIT free workmen to mine coal and supply
the citizens.
The communication was signed by I. w.
Post president of, the association.
In a statement today President POST
said: ,
This labor trust OF which John Mitchell
is the head attempts to enslave the helpless
individual by shrewd manipulation or the
leaders as shown by the demand that only
members of the union who are contributors
to the support of the managers, be allowed
to mine coal, and that the dues OF every
miner be kept from his pay envelope ana
turned over to the said leaders and man
ayers of the labor trust. If such shackles
were riyeted to the arms of our common
people it would result in further ana apso-
lutte tyranny and enslavement.
