Telegraph Operators Strike.

cities Of the United States have struck
for higher wages and while it looked Tor
a time that tho Minot operators would

DAY.
Messages are being received, tho some
what delayed.
The strikers have great hopes of win
ming their battle. The strike has effect
ed the price of grain materially, drop
ping off in one day four cents. The in
reference with the speculative market
is undoubtedly the cause of this.

be made and wonders that it did not

CARE OF MACHINE
IMPORTANT PARTS THAT NEED
TO BE LOOKED AFTER.
Needle, Shuttle and Feed Must 30
Especially Attended 1o-kero.
sene the Best Agent for
CIeansinq-Use of Oil.

There are but three important parts
to the common double-thread machine,
the needle, the shuttle and the feed.
In cleaning a sewing machine use
small screw driver, stick about the
size of lead pencil, with long slend-
ers point, a piece of cotton cloth and
some machine oil.
In taking machine apart do not go
at it in a haphazard way, but COM
mence at one side and work towards
the other side. taking off everything
as you go that needs cleaning.
Have table with plenty of room,
and as fast as the, pieces are removed
lay them there in the order in which
they were removed.
Be particularly careful not ito lose
any of the small screws, for they are
frequently Of such a thread that you
cannot get a duplicate.
After you have taken off the small
parts carefully clean the body of the
machine.
Kerosene will act like magic in TAX
ing off the hardened oil and dirt, and
the sharpened stick will be very serv-
iceable in reaching every crevice.
In oiling the machine use none but
the very best oil 1t is a good idea
once in a while to use a little kero-
sene. This will keep it free from gum
When the body of the machine is
cleaned every bearing and surface sub
ject to friction should be polished
bright. AS soon as piece is cleaned
put it back in place. In few minutes
you will have everything in place
again.
Then oil carefully using rather too
little than too much oil.

SIDE LIGHTS THE sEs1.
Hleh Central Chandelier Not Particu.
IarIy Effective.

When the drawing room, reception
room or living room does not appear
cozy and attractive when lighted up
at night the fault often lies with the
chandelier. A room that Is lighted
only from a center chandelier is apt
to have glazing, cold appearance,
particularly when the room is long
and narrow. Side lights are the only
remedy for this, unless there are
plenty of softly shaded lamps around
the apartment. A high central light
is rarely coy. nor in the case of a
long room does it brighten it evenly.
Candle brackets on the side walls are
better if there are no gas fixtures
there.
1t must be remembered that room
does not have to be glaringly lighted
up at any time. A well-distributed,
soft light is better upon all occasions.
Soft lights do not necessarily mean
low lights, as poorly lighted room is
equally bad TASTE 1t remains for the
clever woman to arrange her lighting
so that it leans to neither extreme.

DEATH OF DEMOCRACY'S LEADER.

|. Freeman Rasin is dead. He was
democracy's leader, and it will be a
long time before Maryland sees his like
again. He was power in Baltimore,
especially, an astute politician, and for
So years held sway among Maryland
Democrats, and in his death the democ-
racy of the State is like an army bereft
of its Commander. He was remarka-
BILE reader of human nature, good
listener, but a man who seldom express
ed himself. He knew the State politi-
cally, knew the working democrats in
every county, made few promises, but
fulfilled those he did make, and whether
in victory or defeat, ruled with an iron
hand. He was shrewd, reticent, and
all-powerful among his political follow
ers. His home life is said to have been
of the ideal sort, devoted to his children
and they to him. His party will miss
him, and in Mr.. Rasin's death Baltimore
loses one of its aggressl,e, prominent
and energetic personalities.

OUR TRUST.

The use of the legend I'm God We
Trust" on some of the coins of the Unit
ed States grew out of letter written
by a Maryland farmer to Salmon P,
Chase when he was Secretary of the
Treasury. The letter was written in
November, 1861, the writer urging that
we should, as Christian people, make
some recognition of the Deity on our
coins. Mr.. Chase referred the letter to
Director Pollock of the Mint, who ar-
proved the suggestion and proposed one
of the legends, "Our Country, Our
God" or God Our Trust" Mr.. Chase
then referred the matter to Congress,
and again in 1862 and in 1853 he urged
that the matter be acted on. Finally,
on April %, 1864, Congress authorized
the coinage of a two-cent bronze piece
and on it was stamped the legend In
God We Trust, instead of ''E Pluribus
Unum." Subsequently, on March 8,
1865, the Director of the Mint, with the
approval of the Secretary of the Treas
ury, was authorized to place the legend
on all gold and silver coins susceptible
of that addition thereafter to be issued.
The legend is taken from the following
line in "The Star Spangled Banner"
"And this be our motto: In God is our
trust.

GOVERNOR FAV0RS INHERITANCE
TAX.
TAX.

While the majority of the voters of
Maryland will probably disagree with
the plea for lower taxes for corporations
made by Governor Edwin Warfeld at
the banquet of the Old Town Merchants
and Manufacturers Association last
Wednesday night, very many of them
will applaud his conversion to the ranks
of advocates of the inheritance tax idea
promulgated by President Roosevelt.
The Governor pointed out that the col
lateral inheritance tax in this State is
but two and one-half per cent, while
in other States it is as high as five and
ten per cent. He also advocated that
the tax be applied to direct inheritances,
as we'll as to those derived from colat-
eral relatives.
We find in legal treatises that there
was time when the right of man to
designate the disposal of his property
after his death was not recognized at
ALL AS measure of public order, it
was at first arranged that the State
should control the disposition of the
estates of decedents, and the heirs were
only allowed to come into possession
after the payment of heavy fine which
was nothing more or less than the origi-
nal of the present inheritance tax. 1t
will be seen that the heir has no natur
al or inherent right in the property of
an ancestor or other relative, the rule
of decedents having been adopted for
reason of public policy. The man who
is left fortune, then, should not con-
slider it hardship ito yield up to the
State, which means the general public.
that which really never belonged to
him and which he is only permitted to
retain by courtesy of the law in order
to prevent disorder. and to perpetuate
modification of an old feudal custom.
He will also get portion of his money
back, in the way of lower taxes on the
yemainder of his property.

AUSTRIAN MI RDERED
WHILE He WAS ASLEEP
ROwIesbuTg the Scene of Cold Blood
ed Crime.

There was very cold-blooded murder
at Rowlesburg, west of Oakland, Sat
urday night about $50 O'Clock and the
murderer is now at large in the noun
tains of Preston county, W. Va.
Two Austrians, employed on the Nor
gantown and Kingwood Railroad COM
pany's tracks, got into a quarrel on
Saturday afternoon over some work
that was to be done that evening but
the foreman of the gang quelled the
trouble, for the time being at least.
That night, after the shanty camp of
the Austrians was wrapped in slumber,
one Of the aggrieved parties went to
the sleeping bunk of the other, pulled
the bed clothing off of him and without
word of warning shot him five times
IN the breast with SO calibre. revolver.
Death came to the poor fellow instantly.
A fellow countryman of the two was
awakened by the noise and perceived
what the man had done he caught hold
OF him to detain him, but the murderer
reached his revolver back over his
shoulder and discharged the remaining
two chambers of the seven-shooter
almost in the captor's face.
The murderer then broke away and
escaped TO the mountains. Sheriff VIM.
M. Schaeffer, of Preston county, and
posse are after him, but it is doubtful
if they ever find him.
The murdered man was Thos. Gaul,
and he was quite popular and much of
leader with his fellow countrymen.
This is the second murder of the kind
that has occurred in Rowlesburg within
a year.
