End the Strike.
From the Philadelphia Press.

Yesterday closed the tenth day of a
strike most inconvenient and disturbing
to the people Of Philadelphia. The pub
lie is the chief party in interest and the
chief sufferer from a strike of this char
acter, yet it has borne the Inconvenience
and hardship which 1T involved with great
patience and forbearance. There has
been some rioting, but it has occurred
for the most part in remote districts. and
even there the rioting has not been OF
extremely violent character. For the last
twenty-four hours it has been absolutely
quiet. The public Is deeply concerned
with the situation. 1t is really the most
interested party and it wants peace es-
tablished. 1t has right to demand, and
ii does demand. that there shall be a
settlement of this strike at the earliest
opportunity.

Maryland's Flower.

From the Baltimore American.
Now that the Black-eyed Susan has
been adopted as the state flower through
the vote of 10000 schoolchildren, ratified
by the formal vote of the state board OF
education. why not have a Black-eyed
Susan day when the flower is in its
glory? Surely. such a signal choice
should be celebrated. and the flower
should have it's day, when any one ap-
pearing on any street, lane or avenue
OF the cities of Maryland or in the high
ways or byways of the counties, In any
public assemblage or in any home circle
without the adornment of the chosen
flower would be hailed as unpatriotic

Variety.

You can take your choice Of weather
You can have it cold or warm;
You may take 1t all together,
From a sunstroke to a storm.
The frost is lightly falling
The buds begin to sprout-
The robins gently calling
And the snowbird hops about.
There's freezing for a minute.
And there's thawing for an hour;
There's a dash of thunder in 1t,
Like a tickle April shower.
So swift you cannot time it.
Each mood will slip away:
You can have all kinds Of climate
In one eventful day!

Mayor Setter May Close up
all Lines of Business
pITTSBURG IS A SAMPLE
DR.. Setter Thinks Closing
is Necessary.
Tobacco Houses, Ice Cream Parlors
and Even the Livery Stables May
be Required to Quit Business on
Sunday.

| There Is strong probability tina
Mayor J. G.. Setter will take step
within the near future, to close al
cigar stores on Sundays. The res
taurants will be allowed to keeJ
open but will not be permitted to sci
anything but eatables. The great re
form wave which is sweeping tn,
great city of Plttsburg has inspired
the local mayor to think along tn,
same line.
what do you think of that q
queried the mayor Tuesday. when ht
handed a fellow official a newspaper
! clipping describing the action of the
lPittsburg mayor. The substance OF
the article was to the effect that the
mayor of the smoky city had issued
orders to close all cigar stores. ice
cream parlors and other stores where
luxuries are handled exclusively. II
also stated that the restaurants would
he allowed to keep open, but would
be prohibited from selling tobacco
"If they can accomplish acts of re.
form like that in a large city, what
should we accomlish here?" duerled
the chief executive.
Are you going to close the cigar
stores and ice cream parlors?" quer-
led man who heard the converse
tion.
81 am not saying at this time: we
must go slow; II is certain that there
are many things to be accomplished
here in the way of reform, but we
feel that it is not policy to go too
fast" remarked the mayor.
Mayor Setter has some very un-
usual ideas about enforcing the Sun
day laws. When the italian grocers
on North Main street were instruct
ed to close their doors last Sunday
they raised n terrible howl because
the cigar stores are allowed to keep
open.
"Is It not more important to sell
bread than tobacco? Why should
you prohibit MS from selling the
necessities of life on Sunday and al
low other stores to carry on a bis
Sunday business, dealing in tobacco?
exclaimed one of the grocerymen.
At that time Mayor Setter in
formed them that he was dealing
with them and would look after other
Sabbath breakers at later date.
If the Mayor starts to close up the
town on Sunday, he will find 1t re-
form not easy to institute. The liv-
cry barns enjoy the largest business
OF the week on Sundays and the ice
cream parlors are in the same class
The butcher shops upply hundreds
of homes with fresh meats on sun
day mornings. And taking all these
things into consideration, it looks
like almost an impossible thing to
accomplish. Yet Mayor Setter be-
lieves that If it Is done in Pittsburg
Il can be done in Marion.
