The Democratic party. however, has
sedulously sought and il still seeking
to establish an antagonlsm of interest
between grades Of labor whose inter
ests are identical. II would have the
worker in the mill believe that the
| mill owner is his enemy. It would
| have employer and employee constant
" at war. though each knows that
neither can prosper unless both ara
content.
Wherever or whenever a difference
arises between n group Of laborers,
who may be the immediate producers OF
a given community, and another group,
| charged with the equally important
task of finding markets and consumers
for the product, the Democratic party
uses the event as the pretext for a
further appeal to the spirit of preju-
dice and passion, always attempting tc
excite hostility between employer and
employee.
In all such cases the principle and
practice Of the Republican party are ex.
actly the reverse. It holds that con
~troversies between employer and EN-.
ployee are almost Invariably due to 9

~terests and that a frank appeal to the
reason and fair m~indedness of those
concerned is all that is needed to effect
an agreement honorable to both sides
The Democratic party reJoices in dis
cord among the makers Of nationa,
greatness. It fattens on public mis-
fortune. It finds in every misunder
standine between employer and EN-
Iployee an excuse for the sinister hint
that those who are in the market t.
buy labor are the natural enemies O
those who have labor to sell.
On the other hand, the Republican
party recognizes any serious disagree
ment between the sellers and the buy
.lers Of labor-between the employee anc
the employer-as a matter Of grave
,iconcern to the general welfare, requir
ling careful nonpartisan scrutiny ant

CANDY MAKING.

Last Thursday evening the compos-
itors in the News Office, all young la
sRes, conceived the idea of making
some real home made fancy candy.
The office gladly furnished the sugar.
A committee went out and secured ket.
ties, while others busted themselves in
taking the kernels from English wal
nuts, peanuts. etc. About 9 O'Clock
the sugar had boiled to proper consist
ency, and the entire assembly got busy.
Uneasy expressions were soon visible,
and quickly followed the announcement
that the sugar had grained. The
writer did not know this until next
morning when he was handed a plate
Of candy, and if you had been here and
seen the dainty cakes, favored with
nuts, etc., you would have seen what
the he did not see. However, the girls
and few gentlemen friends spent a
very enjoyable evening.

KENTUCKY GEORCIA.
Miss Lena Hurt, An Adair County
Young Lady, Married in
New Mexico.
THE GROOM IS A NATIVE OF GEORGIA.

Sunday, the 18th of January, Miss
Lena Hurt, one of Adair county's best
young ladies. a daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. w. Hurt, who resides few
miles from Columbia, was married to
MIR. R. H. Moss, a native of Georgia,
but who has been located in New
Mexico for several years. The ceremony
took place at the residence of DR.. c.
M. Murrell in Elida. Only a few
intimate friends witnessed the GER
emory, which was said by local min
lister in beautiful and impressive
manner.
It is our understanding that the
couple will visit Columbia about the
last of this month, at which time the
bride, who is quite popular here, will
introduce her husband to large circle
of relatives and friends.
The groom has never been here, but
the parents of the bride have been ad-
vised that he is a gentleman of
sterling character and high standing.

Miss Maud Dawson, who was highly
respected young lady of Thurlow, Green

became frightened and ran at full speed.
The young lady managed to keep in
her saddle for some time, but finally
she was dashed out, her head striking
tree, killing her instantly. The news
of the sad occurrence soon spread over
the neighborhood, and there was one
universal expression of sorrow for the

JUDGMENT vs.. GREEN COUNTY.

Judgment was entered in Judge Ev-
ans court this morning on the much
tried and much discussed case of Quin-
Ian VS. Green county on bonds that were
issued some twenty years ago for the
construction of the Cumberland and
Ohio railroad. The opinion of Judge
Evans confirms the State Court of APP
peals.
The bond issue amounted to about
$3.50, 600 and the consideration was
that the railroad was to extend entirely
across the county. On the contrary on
ly about four miles of the road was
built and the bonds were repudiated.
Suit was then instituted for the re-
covery of money that had been paid the
county for bonds. The case that was
settled this morning was in the name of
Mary A. Quinlan, and a finding was
made in the court of Appeals sometime
ago granting her 500, 1852. The man.
date was then filed in this District Court
and the judgment entered this morning.
The case has been before the Supreme
Court of the United States, where a
finding for the plaintiff was made on
one question and another overruled on
the ground that it was too broad.
The settlement of this case decides
the question as to whether or not mon
ey invested in these bonds can be recov-
cred, and it is said that proceedings will
be taken at once to recover the money,
although just how it is to be done is not
yet known. Times Feb. 08.

built in olden times. Mr.. j. v. Laps

has no idea how long it has been stand

resolved to raze it, but when the time

would fail him, saying it was built by
my grandfather and will let it stand.
