HoNoRINc THE FOURTH.

In honoring the Fourth of JULY
the famous letter written by John
Adams from Philadelphia on the
day following the signing of the
Declaration of Independence should
be remembered, as it practically
sho US his approval of what many
have called the more boisterous
methods of celebrating the day.
The most notable portion of this
letter, written July 5. 1776, is:
Yesterday the greatest question:
was decided which was ever de-
bated in America, and greater,
perhaps, never was or will be de-
cided among men. A resolution
was passed, without one dissentingI
colony, That these colonies are|
and of right ought to be free and|
independent states
1.-THE dav is past. The Fourth
of Juy. 1776, will be memorable
epoch in the history of America.
l am led believe it will be cele-
brated by succeeding generations
as the great anniversary festival.
'It ought to be commemorated
as the day of deliverance by solemn
acts o. devotion to Almighty God.
1t ought to be solemnized with
pomp, shows, games, sports, ring
ing of bells, bonhres and illumina-
tions from one end of the continent
to the other from this time forward
and forever.
"Youwill think me translated
with enthusiasm. but l am not. /
am well, aware of the toll and blood
and treasure that it will cost us to
maintain this declaration and sup
port and defend these states. Yet
through all the gloom / can see the
ray of light and glory. | can see
that the end is worth more than all
the means and that posterity will
triumph -

THE GLORIOUS FoUTH.

Saturday is the Fourth of July
the National Holiday set apart t
commemorate the independence o.
xbe n..tion aud the birth Of politicaI
and religious freedom, which
Sneaus SO much 10 us today
Ii is custom well grounded in
che patriotic breast 10 celebrate the
day in a noisy, boisterous fashion
the more noise the better. The
small boy with The cannon cracker
who HES him forth at early dawn
10 wake the dead" the older
boys, in whose bosom lies the
memories of other days; the
struggles upon a battle field in
freedom S cause, rejoice together
on this day of days to all Ameri-
cans.
To the thoughtful man the day
means more. The passing plant
oms of the years gone by, pass be-
fore him as, with closed eyes, he
recalls the past. The trails and
hardships of Washington and his
brave soldiers who suffered all
horrors of bloody warfare at Val
ley Forge; Bunker Hill with its
streams of blood, and Lexington,
and Boston Harbor, and Harpers'
Ferry, are mile stones which mark
the advancement of the nation.
1t is not the day alone that we
should celebrate. We should not
forget the martyrs, and the hard
ships they endured for the cause
they thought was right. The day
means more than the recollection
of war. 1t is more properly re-
collection of the end of strife, the
advent of peace and the establish
ment of good, substantial govern
ment, of the people, by the people,
and for the people.
The old flag, unfurled to the
breezes guarantees to us the right
of life, liberty and the pursuit Of
AMI that is what the day
should mean to all.

Many a man is lonesome because
other men are particular about
their associates.
Over Thirty-Fiy Year,.

In 1872 there was a great deal Of
diarrhoea. dysentery and cholera
infantum. 1t was at this time
that Chamberlain Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy was first
brought into use. 1t proved more
successful than any other remedy
or treatment and has for thirty FIVE
years maintained that record.
From small beginning its sale
and use has extended to every part
of the United States and TO many
foreign countries. Nine druggist
out of ten will recommend it when
their opinion is asked, although
they have other medicine that pay
them a greater profit. 1t can al
ways be depended upon, even in
the most severe and dangerous
cases. For sale by H. T. Davis.

declare himself, he was about tc
pass when he felt couple of warn
ing taps on the shins. "Ah ] Ha !"
thought Jake, as he sized up the
"rubbers", evidently two aces
down and someone is giving me a
friendly hunch", and he announc-
ed solo. He took the first trick
and pulled out the ace of trumps 10
lead it when another tap OIL the
shins induced him to change his
mind. He fumbled the cards for a
moment, selecting a small trump
only to receive a third warning.
Selecting one of his tens, Jake
waited for another tap and feeling
nothing he led the ten. One of
his opponents took it with the ace
and the other put on the king.
Jake thought this was rather
kNpuge, but when the next trick
Issl to him he led the other ten,
which also drew the ace and king.
When Jake counted up he had just
23 points. Just as he was about to
say something forciole, he felt a
wtack on the shins and looked |
down at his feet Standing beneath !
the table was dog, wagging his
tail as cheerful as a basket of chips.

Living Rates Demanded.

Although the Independents and the
Bell ia many places are competitors,
there is no sound business reason why
both should not have living rate for
service. If there is room and need for
two telephone plants in city, both de-
serve and should have fair price for
service. If they do not get a living rate
it is most likely the iault of the COM
panies themselves.
CONF petition, as a principal of bust
ness. is not for the purpose of destroy
ing someone who opposes, but is to
keep the price of a commodity within
reason and assure good material or SER
rice, Why should two telephone com
'anies. operating in the same commun-
ity, reduce prices below cost and donate
other valuable service to the public in
their desperate attempt to drive each
other out of business2 Such a policy
uncalled for. The courts have ruled
that even competitors have a right to
,gree upon aud maintain uniform
price for common commodity or ser
vice, providing the price is reasonable.
Because both the Independents and
the Bell have made mistakes in times
past Is no reason why they should con-
tnue in policy that is destructive of
the best interests of both. The financial
showing made by some competing COM
panies indicates that it is time to gel
do n TO business. For one company TO
attempt to embarrass another company
which is seeking to raise its rates to a
living basis. by cutting rates below the
actual cost of service, is an Anticipated
method no longer practiced by large
business concerns, like department
stores, manufactures, railways or tele-
graph companies. The cut rate policy
not only demoralizes the general buai-
ness, butreactain a baneful manner up
on the company iuaugurating it.
For telephone ompanies the day of
destructive competitive warfare should
be past, and each system, whether In
dependent or Bell should be making
proper return upon its Investment
There is business enough, at equitable
rates. for all first-class exchange and
toll equipment now in the field. Are

A BUSY DAY.

We seem to think tomorrow
Win last a week or two,
Just judging from the many things
That day we mean to do.
The tasks that we will finish,
The ones that we will start,
Would keep a dozen busy,
Each doing but a part.
We're going to write those letters
That have been on our mind
Since when before last Christmas
We Jagged and fell behind.
We're going to take the clippings
Cut out from here and there
And paste them in our scrap book
With diligence and care.
And that is just q starter.
Around about the place
Were going to mend the fences
That now are a disgrace;
Were going to clean the basement
And oil the kitchen floor
And. just to keep things tidy,
To paint the sink once more.
And still we cannot figure
A very busy day.
We ought to. mixed in somewhere,
Have time enough to play.
Just wait until tomorrow
Comes In by through express.
And then we will do business
Much like q whirlwind. Yes2
