The wage Of so cents per hour was

that wage.
So far, no definite trouble has been
experienced from wopld-be agitators,
who urge the ,laborers to 4demandl
bigger wages, Mr.. Norris said today,
and anyA"agitating'' that may be
done will not materially, affect tho

Ed Alexander was born Septem-
Der 10, 1872, died May 29, 1920,
age At years, eight months and
10 days.
He professed faith in Christ at
a revival meeting at New Salem, in
August 1901, but did not unite
with any church, though he ex-
pressed himself as intending to join
the church.
He was a splendid citizen, a safe
business man, a successful farmer.
He was devoted to his afflicted and
widowed mother, widow of the late
Myers Alexander, who died Nov,
20, 1909. Baxter Alexander, Eds
only brother, died Nov. Ia, 1906.
Thus leaving only two of the fami-
", and it became the delightful du-
ty Of Brother Ed to care for Sister
Alexander, showing her every kind
ness and love as q faithful son..
More than. a year ago Ed was
stricken with disease Of the heart
and made a heroic effort to get
we'll, but without avail, and on
May 29, went home to heaven, we
trust to join father and brother
there, and await the coming Of
mother, who is left in this old world
to battle with the storms of life
little longer.
The funeral was conducted in
his fathers and mothers church,

rian church) by the pastor, in the
presence of very large congrega-
ton of sorrOwing friends and rela-

will never forsake nor leave you
alone" adv.
