tended maket for some of their pro-,
ducts across the river. Hover needs
and should have the ferry.
Sly hit the nail on the head when ne
said the commercial club had plunged
ahead without duly considering the eff
fects of their, action. They made
sad blunder and the Hover people were
justified in feeling peeved.
So much for the past-now for the
future. The commercial club went to
Hover to assure the people of their
friendship and desire to cooperate
with them. We trust they learned
something. The Hover people didn't
warm up to them bit, tho Sly adj
mitted their blunders and pledged the
clubs efforts to make right any harm
done. Now it is plainly up to the COM
mercial club to get busy and use their
best efforts to have the ferry installed
at Hover, and it is up to the Hover
people to accept the explanations and
apologies of the commercial club unre-
servedly, to forget their crouch, and
to join with them in an effort to es-
tablish first class ferry service at Ho-
yer, to secure first class road to Fin
ley, and to do anything else for the
good of the whole valley.
Now, there are two morals to this
episode.
First, everyone should read the Live
Wire Column to learn wisdom.
Second, the people of Hover should
belong to some organization where
they could meet and discuss their in
terests and take the concerted action
to look after their rights. In short
they should join the Grange. AS it is
it is the Grange that has been doing
most of the talking for them.
Another thought that occurs to us
is that this would never have come uI
at all under township organization
Under this system we would levy oul
own taxes, collect and spend our owr
money on our roads and be satisfied
And, and, and,-you know we know 9
lot about some things, but we get tx
thinking about them and writing then
down and our mind works faster thar
we can write, and we get excited anc

you, come out of the parlor. Wha
are you doing in there?" "I'm jus

and go at it again. Some job, this
for farmer, and-w we don't wan
to be chucked out of the paper en-
tirely, so we'll leave the township or
ganization till later issue.

House of Representatives at

Der. 1t requires two-thirds vote

congressman Kettner of your
district voted against submitting
this amendment. He is now seek
ing reelection from a constituent
cy which is strongly in favor Of
prohibition. He cannot be elect
ed unless the dry vote is divided.
Unfortunately there is danger of
such a division, as there are two
dry candidates in the field.
"At the primary election, Mr..
J. S. Edwards sought the nominal
tons of both the Prohibition and
Republican parties. He obtained
the nomination of the Prohibition
party only, and Mr.. Robert c.
HARRISON was nominated by the
Republicans. For twenty years
Mr.. Harbison's paper the "San
Bernardino Sum-" has been a loyal
supporter of the dry cause. He
has never wavered in his advo-
cacy of prohibition for city, coun-
ty and state, and he now stands
four-square in favor of national
prohibition.
"The eleventh district is strong
ly Republican in its political affil-
iation. 1t has comparatively few
Party Prohibitionists. Under the
circumstances We are sure that
Mr.. HARRISON is the dry candidate
who has the best chance to be
elected. Therefore, we ask all
who believe that national prohibi-
ton is more important than a
party victory to vote for Mr.. Har-
bison. He will serve our cause eff
ficiently if we send him to Con-
gress, and in our judgment he is
the only dry candidate in that Dis
trict whom we have any chance to
elect"

Women Used In earrisons.

Women are now being employed in
garrisons in France in the place of
soldiers of the auxiliary service. The
experiment, just begun at the head
quarters of the Thirty-sixth infantry
at Caen, has proved so successful that
the minister of war has suggested
that the commanders of other garri-
sons use the services of women wher-
ever it is possible. Thus the drafts
of the 1888 military class will be linn
tied, which will permit professional
men TO continue to attend to their
regular duties and will give employ
ment to the widows, mothers and
sisters of soldiers killed.
All the women used in the garri.
sons are to be classified under the di.
rection of various chiefs of the service
and will be placed according to their
qualifications.

SOME EXPLANATION.
Bitter Complaint That "Moonshine"
Had Been Tempered With Reflect
ed Somewhat on PubIie-Spirit-

Moonshine whisky was being made
by someone somewhere in the neigh
borhood OF Twin Fork creek of the
Cumberland mountains in Kentucky,
but there was no more definite knowl-
edge than that-someone somewhere
in the neighborhood Of Twin Fork.
1t was exceedingly good whisky, too.

of it tasted 1t, and that night, telling
of 1t in the Twin Fork store, he an.
nounced AN she's old. boys; she's
downright plum old; reckon that
liquor was made at least a month
ago"
The first Jug had been found in a
hollow tree. Then the jug was empty
and beneath 1t was a bright silver dol
lar. The finder did not disturb either
jug or money. Returning the next
morning. he found the jug, but there
was no money beneath it, and the jug
itself, instead of being empty was
half filled with liquor. Half an hour
later, on investigation, the jug had
disappeared.
Twin Fork is in a dry" county.
and there was good deal of excite
ment. The hollow tree was watched
day and night by a man stationed in
the crotch of a big elm, but nothing
happened. Then a half-gallon bottle
was found in a cluster of bushes two
miles farther down Twin Forks. Be
meath it was half a dollar in small
change, pennies, nickes and dimes.
1t was when a third jug was discOv-
cred in some bushes halfway up a
mountainside that "Hog-bite" Taylor
came out and announced his willing
ness to aid in apprehending the moon
sinner. Previously "Hog-bite" had
been declaring himself in favor of a
little moonshining. The homemade
| liquor, he declared, was better and
purer than the stuff bought from mail
order houses, and half again as cheap.
Why should q man be compelled to
order by mail and then wait several
days for an inferior article?
"Hog-bite's" proposal was simple.
He would, without pay, go out and
watch the newly discovered hiding
place and see if he could not catch
the moonshiner in the act of filling the
| jug. So that he would not have to
neglect his post for supper, Hog bite"
took along a package of chicken sand
wiches and jug of clear, cold water.
| He would not have to leave the vi
cinity of the jug for even drink. He
was to report next morning. Morn
| ing came and no ".Hog-bite." Nine
oclock-ten o'clock-eleven o'clock.

He found neither jug nor "Hog-bite.' -
