SAY HOST COMING.
Local Industrial Workers of the
World claim there will be between
1000 and 5000 members of the or
ganization in Omaha next week.
Notwithstanding that the circular
which has jus tbeen sent out bears the
name of the Construction Workers
Industrial union, it is known that this
is one of the various names used by
the Industrial Workers of the World
and that it is the same organization
which has been driven out of Min
neapolis, Kansas City and Chicago.
URGE RUSSIAN METHODS.
Federal authorities, Chief of Police
Dunn and the Commercial club are
fully Informed of this project to make
Omaha the national headquarters OF
the Industrial Workers of the World
Notwithstanding that the circular
which has been sent out bears the
name of the Construction Workers
Industrial union, it is known that this
is one of the various names used by
the Industrial Workers of the World
and is one and the same as the Or
ganization which has been driven out
of Minneapolis, Kansas City and Chi
cago.
The circular is dated November 5
and is addressed to fellow workers"
1t reads in part: 1--WE must pre-
pare to use methods not unlike those
used by the Russian labor, for they
are surely / eing forced upon US. If
we are not allowed to do our business
openly, we will do it otherwise, for
we will never lay down"
Reports sent in from all over the
country a.e indeed encouraging.
Everywhere we find that the efforts
to wipe US out are having the
opposite effect, the members have
redoubled their efforts with the
result that everyone is busy. 1t is
quite likely that when labor speaks
democracy will make efforts to democ-
ratize itself. Omaha will seel a
smoker and entertainment on the eve
of the convention. The proceeds are
to 60 for the defense"
"Tvcryone must do all ir his
power 10 aid the defense committee.
Feel Iron Heel.
Another paragraph: Labor has
again felt the iron heel. We have
been informed that our papers have
been suppressed. What will the next
act be- First, the raiding of Our halls
and offices; then the arrest of our
most active members, and now the
suppression of the press. What does
it mean? 1t means that unless we do
as we never did before capital will be
successful in its efforts to crush us.
TO meet this reign of suppression
labor must awaken to the magnitude
of the situation. 1t must arise so that
liberty will not be further crushed.
American labor must fight even
harder than Russian labor has fought.
Are we awakened to the fullest de-
gree? If we are we will never have
better opportunity to show it. Our
every effort must now be made to
count We must act without waiting
for instructions, for the papers can
no longer inform us. We can even
expect the bulletins to be stopped,
and we must base our every act on
these expectations.
american labor has been raped,
but they shall not foully murder US.
The militant labor will fight and all
other labor will aid in that fight. Our
members will be released and all la
Dor will help release them"

World headquarters are at Thirteenth

The border counties of the two
Virginias are vitally interested in

Saturday, the 25th. 1t is in the
interests of the Cumberland-Hot
Springs highway, and is called for
the purpose of consolidating and
uniting the efforts of the group of
counties to be traversed, such Co
operation being required and essen
tial in securing national aid now
available for this route,
The Highland board at its last
meeting appointed one of its mem
bers, MIR. Terry, and E. B, Jones,
delegates to represent Highland at

that both will be able to attend.
The meeting has been largely ad-
vertised and big, enthusiastic
delegation is expected.
Highland is deeply interested in
the project. Monterey, at the
crossing of two big interstate high
ways would get.on the map to stay
and tourists would forever sing the
praises of little Highland, "The
Gem of the Alleg hanies,"

Samuel C. Eagle Dead

| hdAi uSA ~
Mr.. S. C. Eagle was born at Doe
Hill Va, January %, 1857, died
August Is, 1917. He was the
youngest son of Samuel c. and
| Martha NJ. Eagle. His elder broth
er. Harmon Fl. died at Camp Chase
Ohio, in 1864.
His death was due to acute
b,ieht's disease which developed in
an alarming manner on Saturday,
a week previous to his death. He
attended lawn party on Saturday
night at his home church and
seemed to be in his usual health.
About ten o. m. he told his daugh-
ter he was going home. An hour
later when she went home she
found him at the gate very i'll. He
said, II believe | am paralyzed, .
then lost consciousness and never
regained it except momentarily.
Mr.. Eagle lived in Doe Hill all
his life. His father was pioneer
merchant and extensive land owner.
Of the family, only three sisters
survive him: Mesdames D. v.
Ruckman, formerly of Augusta,
Mrs. E. L. Berlin, of Bridgewater,
and Mrs. A. Fl. Jones, of Nc
Dowell, all of whom were with him
during his brief illness,
On Dec. 10, 1879, he was united
in marriage to Miss Martha J.
Kiracofe, who with seven of the
eight children born to them, sur
vive him. The children are Mrs.
r. S. Cecil, of Baltimore, Md,
Leroy and Rembert, of Pocono,
Penn. Russell NJ, of Bemis, w.
Va, Martha, Randolph, Josiah and
Alfred, all of whom were present
during the last few days of their
fathers illness, and during NOM
ents of consciousness he was able
able to recognize them.
Mr.. Eagle was a man held in
high esteem, young and old were
attached to him by his wit and
humor, and by his cordial, warm
hearted greeting, he won the hearts
of all with whom be came in con-
tact. He was a devoted husband, |
a loving, indulgent father. He was
member of the School Board of
Stonewall District for twenty. eight
years, first as chairman, then as
clerk. He served as Justice of the
Peace for nearly thirty years.
He had been a member of the
M. E. Church, South, for two years.
About year ago feeling that he
had not been as faithful as he
should, he voluntarily renewed his
church vows at the morning service
and has since lived faithful
christian.
The funeral Sunday afternoon
in charge of his pastor, Rev. Wen
dali Allen, assisted by Rev. j. c.
Thrasher, of Monterey, drew the
largest crowd ever assembled IN
Doe Hill. The presence and par
ticipation of the Hildebrand Bur
nette Quartette, of Brandon ms
titute added much to the beauty
and solennity of the service.
They sang "I'm Nearing My Faith
er's Home" as the family and
friends entered the church, Mr.
Allen read the ritual service, the
uuartette sang Zone Sweetly
Solemn Thought, " followed by a
few brief remarks by the pastor
and Mr.. Thrasher. The choir sang
Nearer My God To Thee" The
hymns sung at the grave were
''Safe in the Arms of Jesus" and
"Sweet By and By"
The six sons of the deceased,
who had so tenderly ministered to |
him in his illness, acted as pail
bearers. The honorary pail. bearers
were cousins of Mr.. and Mrs
Eagles: Messrs Jno. o., E. W,
and o. G. Armstrong, A. R. u. M.
and Jno. J. Hiner, E. D. Swecker,
and H H. Seybert.
The floral tribute was beautiful.

Why Society Women
Wash Their Own Hair

They do, not because it is fad,
but because they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty and be
sure they are not using anything
harmful. They have found that in
washing the hair it Is never wise to
use a makeshift but is always advis-
able to use a preparation made for
shampooing only. Many Of our friends
say they get the best results from a
simple homemade canthrox mixture.
You can use this at a cost Of about
three cents shampoo by getting some
canthrox from your druggist, and dis
solving teaspoonful. in cup of hot
water. This makes enough shampoo
liquid to apply to all the hair instead
of just the top and the head, as with
most preparations. Dandruff, excess
oil and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear in the rinsing water. Your
hair will be SO fluffy that it will look
much heavier than 1t is. Its lustre
and softness will also delight you.
