Could Not See For Dust.

The enormous amount of dust which
we have experienced within the last
week has made US envy our neighbor-
ing towns who have oiled their streets,
and has set US to wondering if it
would not be possible to oil at least the
the Public Square in Lancaster. OF
course this would be impracticable
while the sidewalks are in course of
construction, but after they are down
it does seem that something along this
line might be accomplished. Oiling is
not very expensive, and it does seem
that merchants would be more than
recompensed for their outlay by the
saving experienced to their stocks from
the flying dust. Not only is the dust
a nuisance to the merchants and the
people but it is dangerous, it is laden
with all manner of germs. and it
would be well to couple the slogan
''stop the dust" along with "swat the
f1y".

Maupin Trial At Richmond Results In

understood that the jury stood nine fol-
acquittal and three for conviction.
Maupin has been on bond since the
tragedy and was again released on bond
after the jury failed to agree.
A splendid array of legal talent was
engaged in the trial, which included
Hon. Tevis Cobb, leading attorney TO,
the defense, assisted by John Boland,
Judge Sullivan's law partner, and
Messrs William and C. C. Wallace,
while Commemorative Attorney B. A.

an adjustment of working hours,

others. In the meantime Cincinnatians
are walking to and from their places of
business or utilizing taxicabs, omnibuses,
delivery wagons or whatever means of
conveyance they are able to secure.
Every effort is being made to settle the
strike and the efforts will doubtless
prove successful within a short time.

Money Going Out OF Lancaster Which w
Believe Could Be Kept AT Home.

There are two industries which We
believe could be established in Lancas-
ter upon a paying basis, laundry and
a green house. It is true that we
have in the past had both of these in
dustries, and both proved failured, but
the surroundings were nothing like as
favorable at that time as now. Mr..
Heberling who is now in Georgetown
established a greenhouse here before
we had a system of water works and
it proved unsuccessful financially, and
Mr.. Chrisman later established one up
on a smaller scale which was also un-
successful; however, we believe, and
we are prompted to this belief by the
enormous demand for flowers, that q
greenhouse, one that would supply the
demand for cut flowers as well as pot.
ted plants would prove a paying ven.
ture here nov under more favorable
surroundings than those which sur.
rounded former efforts. As for the
laundry, we had a good laundry, but
the condition and inadequate supply OF
water necessitated it shutting down,
but since our water capacity has beer
materially increased and we are assur'
ed that in time, let US hope a short
time, we are to have a modern filter.
ing system, which will materially i'm
prove the quality of our water supply
the year round, and we are now con.
strained to the belief that good laun.
dry would also prove a paying invest
ment in Lancaster.
It surely does not seem just right
that town of Lancaster's size and
progressiveness should have to depend
upon their neighbors to furnish every
boquet that goes to our best girls. OIL
that our neighbors should have to be
called upon to do our washing.
| Let us do our own washing and raise
our own flowers.
