EPIDEMIC IN noTcHKIss.
The Dread Disease Diphtheria Prevalent
in our Sister Town. Paouia
Physicians Called in
Council.

This week word reached town
from Hotchkiss. that they were
in need OF supply OF anti toxine
and also the request that two of
our physicians come down and
council with their medical men
on means to control the disease.
Both requisitions were honored
and it is hoped that with vigorous
attention the disease NAV be
stamped out in its incipicncv
As we are informed there are no,
a great many cases in Ho,chkiss
proper and probably less than
half dozen in the town and sur
rounding country With care
there should be no difficulty
in conhning the complaint to a
very few homes. Paonia people
should avoid visiting Hotohkiss
for time till there is evidence
that the disease is stamped out
Our physicians announce that the
trouble IS completely under con
troll here. no new cases OF in
fection having been manifested
since the last public gathering
was prohibited. With the proper
effort Hotchkiss can easily be
purged OF danger in the course
ot couple OF weeks. THE News
PAPER sincerely hopes that all
their afflicted ones will speedily
recover and that no new cases
will develop.

OF the flow of the spring was

time. most emphatically deny
that there is now. or has there
been, any shortage in the towns
water supply since the 29th day
of June 1906. when the reservoir
was repaired and the water turned

that the people of this town shall
take my word neither the word of
the water superintendent or that
of the mayor. Any one inter

in that vicinity if this waste has
not been continuous all spring.

CALDWELL GROWERS
Assure Crittenden Farmers They
Oppose LaWlessneSs

A committee from this county. com
posed Of W. B. Yandell. G. NJ. Order
and T. II. Cochran. interviewed the
officers Of the DARK Tobacco Growers
Association at Princeton Wednesday Of
last week. and asked for a statement
addressed to the people Of Crittenden
county. This statement was not forth
coming on that day. but was issued Sa-
turday as follows:
ITO the People Of Crittenden County:
II has been reported that threats and
anonymous letters are being circulated
in Cdttenden county. Now. We are not
familiar with the conditions in Critten-
deh. The Dark Tobacco Growers As
ISOLATION has no organization in that
county, and consequently no officers can
help manage the situation. but We can
assure the people Of That county that
this association does not endorse such
methods and will DO all in the bounds Of
reason to prevent lawlessness Of every
kind and TO restore peace and good will
among the people

FRIDAY, JAN. IS, 1907

We believe that the backbone OF the
contention between the Dark Tobacco
Growers Association and the outsiders
in Caldwell county has been broken.
As will be noticed elsewhere in these
columns, they had a meeting in Prince
ton last Saturday. At this. meeting
all differences we're thrown to the
wind and both now agree and hone to
see carried out the gospel of brotherly
love in free speech and individual prop
erty rights. There is no question but
what very bitter feeling has been en-
gendered in that county. Both sides
to the controversy had brought arms
and ammunition right lately in quanti-
ties and the feeling had reached that
pitch in which life was valued at only
the snap Of ones finger. II would only
have required a show Of resistance in
the delivery Of one load Of tobacco
belonging to those outside Of the Dark
Tobacco Growers Association TO have
preciptated war and bloody war at
that. We are happy to state the
leaders on both sides became alarmed
at the bitter feeling. They loved Cald
well county and its people and were
willing to sink any personal differ
ences for the general good. As with
union labor so with these growers
associations. As long as labor organ
lies and strikes it is all right. but when
they attempt to force those not in the
union TO strike and to remain idle. then
war comes. Look at the pitiable con-
dition Of the labor unions at Sturgis.
Four hundred men struck from the
Western Kentucky Coal Companies
works. They have been beaten to a
standstill and there is now in Sturgis
not over 20 per cent. Of the number
that struck. so these growers associa-
tons. II would be impossible for them
TO organize and keep out entirely the
disorderly element. OF course they
could not approve Of lawlessness, but
just the same that small per cent. that
has crept in their ranks will make
trouble for the whole organization.
The RECORD believes that these organ
izations have had considerable part to
do in raising the price Of tobacco. but
do the people Of Caldwell county think
they are better of with tobacco at a
good price and their stemmeries gone
and blot on Caldwell eounty's name
that will take years to efFace; or would
they rather have their temmeries back.
the blot erased and tobacco at less
prieel Let Crittenden county learn a
lesson from Caldwell.

At last we read in the papers tina,
''the Hargises are very much alarmed. "
Men have died by the hand Of the
assassin and the crime laid at the door
Of the Hargises. They we're as cool
as an oyster on ice and had not even
a symptom that indicated alarm.
Charges have been preferred against
them and indictments procured indieat-
ing murder Of the first degree. The
Hargises were not alarmed. They
have faced angry mobs in the court
house in jackson. and by sheer force
Of will and daring kept the surcharged
atmosphere from ignition. The Harry
ises we're not alarmed. They have
passed through battles in Jaekson's
streets have seen men fall mortally
wounded "bellering Ike a bull" The
Hargisei were not alarmed, But az

Elgin, in the absence OF expected help,
is doing the preaching and doing it
well. 1t was remarked by a good
many that last Sunday nights sermon
peeled off some of the bark. No doubt
we need to be barked in some places.
Gypsy Smith is also holding meeting
and the other night he said,
You men should be honest with
yourselves and when you believe a
thing dent be afraid to tell about it.
Some Of you may say that people will
think you are still clinging to the old
apron strings if YOU try to do right.
