SEVEN SHOT BEFORE THE PUBLIC.
Strike Leaders We're Lined Up in Row
,.and ShOt---Ending Very Dra-
matte Scene,

Late advices from the Orizaba
Mexico strike district are to the effect
that 1852 out of 1888 men who were
out haye returned to work. Swift
punishment was inflicted upon some of
leaders in the late rioting. Just how
many men we're executed is not
known but seven of the ring leaders
were shot before hundreds of wit
nesses. The shooting of the leaders,
among whom were Rafael Moreno
vice president, and Manuel Juarez,
secretary of the workingmen's organ
ization, was dramatic. 1t occurred
at 5:35 o'clock in the morning when
the thousands of half-starved strikers
had determined to return to work.
Factory whistles were blowing and
throngs of men were about to enter
the open doors when they saw a squad
of soldiers leading the condemned
men to the ruins of stores that had
been razed by the mob. Placing men
on piles of smouldering rubbish the
soldiers stepped back and the volley

Throngs of dazed workmen who
had unwittingly witnessed the shoot
ing, waited until the smoke cleared
away then entered the mill. Later
few workmen who had apparently
been drinking came to the door and
shouted death" Instantly they
were fired on and killed by soldiers.
Great excitement occurred in Santa
Rosa, Rio Blanco and Nogales when
word was given out that all houses in
those settlements would be searched
for stolen goods.
AS result of this order, during the
early hours of the morning, the
streets were filled with laces, yelvets,
furniture, sewing machines, type
writers, clothing, etc. These were
piled in heaps and notwithstand-
ing the absence of guards, were not

KINGSTON, JAMAICA,
DESTROYED BY QUAKE.
One Thousand Dead -Quakes Continue
Chaotic Conditions Prevail.

The City of Kingston has been de-
stroyed by earthquakes and fire.
The loss of life is estimated at
1000.
No Americans were killed.
The shock came without warming
and the houses tumbled inward,
burying hundred, then caught fire,
burning hundreds to death.
The inhabitants rushed from the
city to the suburbs, leaving the dead
and dying and the city to destruction.
Hundreds were caught like rats in
trap, unable to get out.
Soldiers are shooting al looters.
Most of the dead afe negroes.
Drunken negroes are on the ram
page and troops are powerless. An
American torpedo boat destroyer ar
rived with Admiral Evans.
1t is reported that Evans was given
authority to deal with the malcon-
tents and United States marines will
be landed. Tee situation is serious,
especially from the fact that the
negroes far outnumber the whites
and the latter for the first time in
years are practically unarmed.
1t is impossible to state the loss of
Europeans, but S5 prominent persons
are missing. 1t begins to appear
that trouble with the natives will be
serious, inasmuch as the banks with
supposedly fireproof vaults lost all
their assets.
Unless American warships land
men the enraged negroes will soon be
in a position to rule the situation.
They have many followers.
Shocks now are terrorizing the
people.
Practically all the hospitals we're
shaken down or burned.
A pestilence is imminent, as under
the ruins are masses of dead.
Ruin and desolation are said to
stretch for miles outside the city.
The shocks were felt from fifty to
sixty miles away and one dispatch
from temporary cable station at
Bull Bay says not single house be-
tween there and Kingston escaped
damage.
No estimate of the loss OF life
from official sources has yet come
through, but the camp hospital ap-
pears to have been the center of the
visitation as no less than forty
negro soldiers were killed there
There were many isolated fatali-
ties among the Europeans at King
ston but apparently the aggregate of
white victims is small.
The distance between buildings
known to have been destroyed is
taken to Indicate that the total loss
of property will be great.
According to the latest dispatches
slight earth shocks continue to be
felt at Kingston.

admiralty and private concerns hav-
ing interests in Jamaica are taking
all steps possible to alleviate the dis

Honesty in Advertising.

The campaign that was recently start
ed IN the East for the enactment Of leg
islation prohibiting false statements in
newspaper advertising is fast gaining
ground and is receiving support of the
different advertising mems associations
and business organizations in different
cities of the United States. There
should be national law making it a
criminal offense to misrepresent goods
or make any Misrepresentation OF what
ever kind in newspaper advertisements,
and to exclude from the United States
mails all printed matter making such
Misrepresentation. If law OF this
character was once enacted and put in
operation, it would reduce to the mini
mum the field of the catalog house
schemers and the fake mail order men.
1t would also cause various department
stores to change their methods as to
observation-disclosures Trade Exhibit.

Law Applies Only to Indigest Persona
The statutes of the state OF
Michigan very properly provide
that when an old soldier, his
wife or widow shall die in indi-
gent circumstances the burial
shall be at the expense of the
county in a sum not exceeding
forty dollars. An agent to look
after this matter is appointed in
each township to look after such
burials. This does not mean, as
many people seem to think, that
the county gives forty dollars to
provide for the funeral expenses
of every old soldier, soldiers
wife or widow. Before such aid
can be extended the agent must
first satisfy himself by a care
full inquiry into, and examination
of all the circumstances in the
case that the family of such de-
ceased soldier, or the a0Ve or
,0idO,O of any soldier is unable,
for want of means, to defray
funeral expenses, and if he finds
such a state of affairs to exist, he
must certify to the county clerk
such finding setting forth all the
facts, and that he found the fam
lily of such deceased person, if
there was any family, in INDECENT
circumstances and unable TO meet
the funeral and burial expenses.
The agent is also required to
set forth an accurately itemized
statement of funeral expenses in
each case.
During the past year Van Blu
rem county paid out the sum of
$500 for the burial of such indi-
gent persons. A peculiar circum-
stance is that the expense was
just $40 in each case. Had the
statute fixed a limit of $50, would
the items Of expense in each case
have been just that sum-
Perhaps there would be no
complaint if the people should
provide for the proper burial of
all old soldiers, their wives or
widows, but it does not. AS long
as the law applies only to per-
sons in INDECENT circumstances it
ought not to be enlarged SO as to
apply to those who are amply
able to meet such expenses with
out aid from the public. That
this has been done and is being
done every year is an open
secret.

Usury Starts Emigration.

has started wholesale emigration
to the United States. | have been re-
liably informed that out of $4,000 male
taxpayers, 5000 between the ages of
Is and 20 have left for America.
From the village of Hsgiasas, in the
center of the island, one-tenth of the
whole population has left. The move
ment is assuming such an alarming
aspect that the Turkish government is
now using its utmost endeavors to
prevent this exodus. With few excep-
tons, only men emigrate, which
proves conclusively that IL is the in
tention Of these people to eventually
return to the island after they have
earned sufficient money in the United
States to enable them to do SO.

COMM j N|CATED.

Following is an excellent article from
one OF our patrons on the local option
question. The Northerner welcomes
communications on all matters OF pub
lie interest and will give our readers the
benefit Of them through its columns
from time to time:-ED.
Harris Dickson. in the last number of
the Saturday Evening Post, writing OF
the Battle OF the Bottles" 10 the South
says: "that unless something stems the
present tide. 1t il q matter Of months
until there will not be saloon from the
Potomac to the Rio Grande, and q tod
dyless Sahara will be stretched from
Mason and Dixon's Line to the Gulf OF
Mexico" Mr.. Dickson then proceeds to
show how such a remarkable change Of
sentiment has come about ia the south
ern states and forcibly presents the rea-
sons therefor and discusses the causes
that have led up to it. He says the sew
eral steps have been as follows:
l. From the doggery to the Five-mile
law.
2. From the Five mile law to precinct
option.
3. From precinct option to county
local option.
4. From county local option to state
prohibition, the ultimate goal.
This seems to be logical and progress
sive in the right direction, aud would
seem to indicate that those people who
are urging precinct option in Michigan
a Aaa
forward, and we believe they are. The
county would seem to be a small enough
Unit in which the traffic may be prohib.
tied. Ward, village and township option
would, 1t seems to US. be OF little or no
benefit, and would have scant tendency
to diminish the use Of intoxicants.
Mr.. Dickson says that more than one
half the area Of the United States is al
ready under prohibitory laws, aud that
the battle ground must inevitably move
to Washington, and that congress will
be asked to relegate the traffic TO the po-
lice control of the states so that each
state will be free to prohibit the ship
ment Of liquors into its territory, and
that congress will also be asked to pro-
hibit the issuance of internal revenue
licenses in dry districts.
10 show the progress OF prohibitory
sentiment in the South it "is but neces-
sary to notice that even in Kentucky, a
state for century famed for the pro-
duetion of "Old Bourbon" there are
"a counties in which the traffic is entire
ly prohibited, and only four counties
containing no dry territory.
From present indications the good
people of Van Buren, county are likely
20 be called upon next spring to again
vote wet or dry, saloon or no saloon. Mr..
Voter, when that time arrives what are
you going to do about it? For upwards
of IL years the liquor business has been
az outlaw in this county. Will you con-
tinue it's outlawry or will you vote for the
return Of the saloon with all its attend
ant evils The last time the question
was before the people the majority in ia
vor of the law was materially reduced.
The reason therefor was not hard to find.
The temperance cause was damaged by
the intemperance of some of it's advo-
Gates wounded in the house of it's
friends. This action should not be re-
peated. Mr.. Voter, it is, or will be, up
to you. You will have to decide the
matter. What say you? Saloon or no
saloon?

Need of County Board OF Auditors.

Every session Of the board of
supervisors demonstrates more
and more the necessity of board
of county auditors. Where the
board meets but twice a year,
there is an immense number of
bills for the consideration of the
board at each session. Even
though the board should take
the full time of two weeks, there
is not time to give each bill the
consideration it requires. And,
again, those who do work for the
county are sometimes required
to wait nearly a year for their
pay. If there could be a board
of county auditors to hold ses-
sions, say every 30 days, all
bills would receive proper atten-
ton and be paid promptly and
it would lessen the immense bur-
den placed on the claims commit
tee at each session. No doubt
other counties are anticipating
the same thing, as the first reso-
luton presented to the constitu-
tional convention was one asking
the convention to endorse the
creation of county boards OF
auditors.
