the moral monitors of the community.
Should they give public utterance of
the facts in their possession, OF should
they suppress them and so incidental
ly give encouragement TO continued
abrasions of the moral aud civil laws.
The responsibility lies somewhere.
We are all phariseeical to some .ex-
tent We are glad to say that we are
not as other towns. yet inwardly we
know. that we are. That the vices
which other towns have, we have.
That the moral dangers. so patent in
other towns, are in our town. That
the girls and boys going on the road
TO perdition in other towns, have
their counterparts in our town. We
say that publicity is the one safe
guard for our financial interests. and
that suppression is best for our moral
| welfare. That we should howl from
the mountain tops at the ubiquitous
corporation, and whisper in fear
when virtue has been wronged. And
so the burden of responsibility is
passed on and on. in trusting hope
that some one will be found with
nerve to assume it, Human nature
is alike in city or town or village !;
sin runs rampant here and there.
The difference is merely in the dis
guise or the color of the glasses
through which it is viewed. Never
theless we are our brothers keepers !;
or at least conscience dictates that we
are collectively responsible.
Parents should know where their
boys and girls are at night. They
should know the company they keep :;
whether or not they are associating
with those who would be denied en-
trance TO the family circle. There
are things being done in this town
and other towns just as demoralizing
as the situation exposed in New York.
Good people, absorbed in their own
sense of virtue and Christian char
acter, are peryersely ignorant or
negligent of things which are being
done about them. There should be an
awakening of the moral senses OF the
community-this and other commune
ties. Some one is responsible for
CLOSING over the social evils of the
times. Some one or all of us should
take up the responsibility of reform and
suppress the evil and not the facts.
But this paper passes it on. Starting
out with prospective ten-lin item,
the pencil has rambled ON to a scream
of words which have said too much
or too little. We shirk the burden
it is up TO some one else to initiate d
movement that will scOurge the leech
and libertine and protect our young
girls and boys. This paper knows its
duty, a. its readers know theirs,
but-passes it on. -Hopkinton Leader.

STORM IN MOHAWK VALLEY.
One Man Killed by Lightning. Barns Fired.
Trees Blown Down and Crops Destroyed.

Utica. July n.-The storm which swept
the Mohawk Valley last night left a path
Of death and ruin in it's wake. One man
was killed by lightning, another is near
death and several persons were more or
less seriously Frustrated. Crops over a
wide area were ruined, a number of barns
fired. trees blown down. cellars flooded
and telegraph and telephone service tenn
porarily put out Of commission.
Details of the havoc wrought by the
storm are beginning to be received. but it
will necessarily be several days before the
full extent of the damage lone will be
known. Mathew Miller, employed on a
farm between this city and Frankfort, was
instantly killed by a bolt of lightning while
he wa working over a nuTA'r Of milk
cans in the barn. The electrical holt struck
him squarely on the head and he dropped
dead. Addison Getman and John Markle,
standing near by. we're rendered uncon-
scious and the barn was destroyed by fire.
At Mannheim. in Herkimer county, John
Monsell, a farmer. was driving home when
lightning hit him. knocking him from the
wagon and INJECTING burns which it is
feared will prove fatal.
Between Utica and the city Of Little
Falls, TO the east, great damage has been
done 10 crops and fruit, The hail cut down
the corn, potatoes and grain and in many
instances stripped the leaves from the
trees, besides destroying the fruit.
In Little Falls many miles Of wires were
torn down. huge trees uprooted. sections
Of pavement washed out and traffic blocked
on many highways.
The storm struck Utica at about 9 O'Clock,
made things Shum for a few minutes. then
swept on down the Mohawk Valley, gather
ing force as il sped along.
