TESTIMONY OF LABOR AGAINST
THE SALOON.

1t damns everything it touches. I
have seen it in every city east of the
Mississippi river, and / know tho
most damning curse to the laborer is
that which gurgles from the neck of
the bottle.-Tcrencc V. Powderly. of
the Knights of Labor.
l have no sympathy with the state
mcnt so often made, that the manu-
facturc and sale of liquor has con-
tributed to the Industrial development
OF the nation. On the contrary, l
believe that liquor has contributed
more to the moral, intellectual and
national decoration of the people and
has brought more misery to the de-
fenseless women and children than
any other agency in the history of
mankind.-John Mitchell, American
Federation of Labor.
We object to the labor movement
being tied TO the tail of the brewers
kite. We must steer labor's bark
as far away from the saloon as posi-
BILE. Labor uplifts; liquor keeps down
We want to get up, see ?United Mine
Worke's Jorunal,.
We are absolutely opposed to the
saloon, and it is Incorporated in our
laws that a man cannot engage in
liquor traffic and remain a member
of this organization.-Ord of Rail-
way Conductors.
We oppose the saloon to the extent
that the Brotherhood will not tolerate
member being connected with the
sale of liquor. Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen.
If you want to know where the min
erss of America stand upon the tenn
perance question, I'll tell you. In our
constitution we have clause which
forbids any member to sell intoxicants
even at picnic. That's what we
think of the liquor traffic. Som
people say that the saloon is neces-
sary eveil. don't believe in that
kind of doctrine.--Thos. L. Lewis,
President United Mine Workers.
Wage-workers have been the main
stay of the liquor traffic on the NORTH
American continent, but, thank God
they are going to xneck it out. TIL,

ROAD MAINTENANCE.

"The secret of the countrf road
The secret of the country road
problem is maintenance. No matter
what kind of road is built it will go to
pieces unless properly maintained and
maintenance being continuous OPP
GRAFTON, appropriation therefor must
be continuous. The paint-coat meth
cd of carrying for roads cost about
DC a square yard per year"
The above is clipped from an arti-
Gle in a recent issue of the Philadel-
phia Public Ledger, a marked copy of
which was mailed us by Mr.. VIM.
Byrd Henry. The Philadelphia peo-
pie are using paint-coat, tar and
asphalt preparation on their thorough
fares very extensively. The cost is
some greater to begin with, but it is
claimed, cheapest in the end, as the
roads properly treated with it will
last many years Longer than when
treated by the old method.

Is benefit TO the human race. IL il
non-produccr and must be support
cd by those who work.
Every man and woman should DO
against the liquor traffic. from start
to finish. am speaking to the wage
workers but it may be applied to every
body.
After the saloon is put out of
business, figures show that the at
tendance Mt the public schools in
creased from five to twenty per cent
six days after the doors closed. There
is also greater regularity of atten-
dance.
Education is neglected when the
saloon is present The saloon wants
people to remain ignoratn. Ii Is
upon ignorance that the liquor traffic
thrives.
The workingman is beginning to
understand that when he patronizes
the saloon he is helping maintain an
institution which brings him in no
returns. There is nothing in the sa.
loon which tends toward better man
hood or better womanhood.
You say it hns been long in exjs-
tence. So has despotism, but that
does not make it right.
The influence of the saloon on the
government is bad. In some munic-
qualities dominated by saloons
there are some men in office who
could not be elected dog catcher I'M
der ordinary circumstances.-John
b. Lenton Treasurer Of the American
Federation of Labor.

FARM FACTS
By Peter Radford

Get the difficulties out OF the
farmers way and the farmers prob
lens will solve themselves.
The increase in prices OF farm
products has not kept pace with the
increased cost Of living.
The farmer can produce without
organization, but TO successfully
market he must unite with his
neighbor.
The farmer is the directing head
and operating hand Of his business.
He combines, directs and carries all
responsibilities.
The farmer cannot be helped IN
I'll he organizes and the government
cannot help the farmer except
through organization.
The farmer sells at prices fixed
in free trade markets and buys
everything he wears and uses in a
high protective market.
The value Of farm crops is de-
termined not only by the amount Of
labor necessary TO produce them
but by having them on the market
when needed.
