A BREEZY LETTER
FROM CARPENTERS
Regular Correspondent of Topics of
Live Interest to the Working Men of
Charleston and Vicinity.
EDITOR LABOR ARGUS.

Please allow us space in this
issue of your valuable paper to
state few facts to the public and
little talk that may be of benefit
to our carpenters and others. Few
realize the good No. 1907 is doing
in our city, in the way of helping
those who are in trouble or in need
OF financial aid when sickness
comes upon them. We have ex-
pended in the past year in cases of
sickness the sum of $1O55.OO; on
top of that we have paid about
$500 in death claims to our mem
bers or their wives. We are proud
OF the good work done in this way
among all our deserving members.
1t is sad to note, however, that
there is still one now and then who
can go so far and stoop SO low rs
to ask remunerations under false
pretense of having rendered our
body service, or for an allowance
Tor sickness that was feigned.
Of such we can only saw the
Lord pity, for we cannot find
words to express our utter disgust
of such a character.
Oh, well, ever since the traitor
OF Revolutionary fame came to
light the American people have
looked for them in every good
cause, and alas, have not failed to
find them; but let us console our
selves, brothers, in the hope that
the son may learn a lesson from
the fathers misdeeds and in gener.
atoms to come that the base name
may be only memory Of the past
III our country. While we are
hoping for better things, let us
work for better things. Brothers.
we are entering upon new year;
let us work this year as we never
worked before to eliminate all that
is bad in our body, and bring into
action all that is good. Attend our
meetings and see to it that Justice,
and justice only, is done in all our
business affairs.
Remember, upon united and
harmonious action the welfare of
one and all depends; and remem-
Der, II another brothers. opinion
on an important question is differ
emit from your own, that if you are
both striving for the good of the
common cause, that you will both
come to an agreement (by discus
slon) that will be for the good of
all. Sharp criticism of sincere
man by sincere man does not
hurt, either. Criticism given and
received in the right spirit will fit
us better for the work that lies be-
fore us. May we enter this new
year with the determination to do
all that our obligations require of
US toward our cause When we
do that we will come to the begin
ming of the next year with a con-
seriousness of having lived one year
for a purpose. May we all have a
happy and prosperous year, is the
wish of your humble writer,

RECORD BREAKING RACE
 BY THE DOGS IN ALASKA

From the New Orleans Picayune.
 The recent Wyoming Colorado broncho endurance race which caused consider able excitement in the yellow journals was not in it with the dog endurance race recently held in Alaska, If the Mo- me correspondent of the Republican is to be believed. Several weeks ago the Republican published letter from this correspondent in which he stated that there was to be a test of dogs attached to sleds in a race run from Nome to Candle. In the following letter written April "A to a Denver man received here yesterday he describes the finish of the race which seems to have divided excite ment in Nome with murder trial:
 Nome, April 24.-Since the event of the big dog race, of which I told you in a former letter, there has been nothing of note to break the monotony. The weather has continued along in a spring like manner with plenty of thaw to keep it continually wet under foot and cold enough to kill the microbes. The early warm weather has caused many to think and state that we would have late break up. The first weather to warrant such opinion is upon us today. There is every indication of snow and decided wintry aspect generally
 "The dog race to Candle and return was not finished, I believe, when wrote It was great test of endurance. both for dogs and men, and the first money went to team that made the run in days. 23 hours and 15 minutes. The distance is approximately 430 miles and no such time was ever made by dogs before or looked for upon this occasion. A very severe blizzard was encountered. which much delayed the teams, but it is a question whether or not the time would have been lowered any If weather conditions had been more favorable
 '"rhe rest the dogs got during the
