We have heard it rumOred that
the Southern Pacific railroad in
tended to soon build a new depot
here, which would be on the Main
tract of the branch at the end OF
Bridge street, in order not to de-
lay the passenger train when the
exteution of this branch will be
completed and regular passenge
trains put on the branch. The
public are getting tired with the
delays of the mixed trains, and
the long wait at Cade between
trains. The advent of regula,
passenger trains of this brancl
will be much appreciated 10y tn,

Another Little Angel.

Tuesday morning this town was
made sad when it was announced
that dear little Jane Ika Schwartz,
the little girl and only child of
Mr.. and Mrs. X. Schwartz had
died during the night.
Little Toutsy as she was CON-
monty called by all the children
was aged only three years was
a most interesting child, she was
bright, would talk to every body,
knew every body, and was loved
and petted by all. The little girl
was sick only II few days and the
parents little expected that their
dear little girl was seriously sick
and was to leave them SD soon, bu,
when they realized that medical
skill and tender nursing was of nc
avail, their hearts were broken
the little one grew from worse t.
worse until her pure soul took it,
flight to be among the Angels
where she will be one of The
brightest jewels.
The remains of little liza were
taken TO New Orleans Tuesday, t
be entered in the family tomb.

We learn that the number of

larger than it has been during the
past few years. The politicians
of both factions have been hard at
work inducing the people to pay

THE GRIP.

Before We can sympathize with others,
We must have suffered ourselves" No
one can realize the suffering attendant
upon an attack of the grip. unless he has
had the actual experience. There is
probably no disease that causes SO much
physical and mental agony. or which so
successfully defies medical aid. All
danger from the grip. however. may be
avoided by the prompt use of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. Among the tens
of thousands who have used this remedy
not one case has ever been reported that
has resulted in pneumonia or that has
not recovered. For sale by T. J. Liable

Why Some WOrkmen Are
Poor.
Franklin Waterman,


raigns the capitalists-the Mono
polist - loudly blaming his en-
ployer for his failure to get along
comfortably on the wages paid
him for his labor. He admits
that his wages are promptly paid.
and that, in most cases, he has
privileges" But his cry is that
he can not make his income cover
his expenses. There must be some
cause for this, aDd it is well to
look into it.
There are three classes of CAPT
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS grow
rich largely through the willing
support Of the working class.
without money, and without
price," literally to these men, the
wage-earner brings the profits of
bis labor, getting nothing in re-
turn but degradation and disease
to himself and disaster to all who
depend upon him. There is the
tobacconlst. The money they
give to him brings them
neither food, fuel, clothing nor
shelter. 1t in 10 sense adds to
his self-respect or material sue
cess. Why do they work for him?
Then, there is the brewer and
the distiIler. Here, rs in other
countries, these alone thrive when
other industries may be working
at loss. Who is to blame for
this traffic? Who are its patrons?
Are not the workingmem its chief
supporters? DO they need urg-
ing, or promise OF pay to induce
them to squauder or drink their
money for which their families are
suffering? Why do they choose
to fatten those industries Oh their
souls and the souls of their fami-
! lies? Who have they to blame?
, Why do they not choose as repre-
} sentatives among the nations law
t makers men who will legislste
, those worse-than-cancers on the
business body out of existence?
, Why do the voters uphold the
, liquor trade by giving the making
of their laws into the hands of the
liquor interests?
, Here, at least, the workmen have
: the remedy in their own hands.
| They have not the slightest excuse
for worse than wasting their wa
ges on what brings them no re-
turns but degradation and its &C
: compartments. The wealth won
! by the railroad kings. corporations,
iron-mongers or monopolies, in
creased by the toll of the working
class, is mere bsgatelle compar-
ed to that which these same work
ers give away thrust eagerly in
to the liquor and tobacco dealers
hands despite the tears and plead
ings Of their best friends. The
industries mentioned give them al
least wage, and enable them to
care for their families to some ex-
tent, but of the three classes re-
ferred to above. not one offers any
thing but ruin and shsme-the
: three-fold degradation which de-
stroys body and soul, often pass
ing on through hereditary, even to
the "third and fourth generation.
So long as men will willingly-nay,
eagerly-become slaves to- these
manufacturers, they should be ST.
lent as to all other sources OF po-
verify, for no man who has allowed
the liquor and tobacco habit to
master him can refer his downfall
