The pre-New Years cotton mar
ket was mainly undecided and the
prices fluctuated. Liverpool ad-
vices conveyed assurance. Strength
in the stock market and the peace
outlook were offset by tight money
and declines in sterling. Cotton fu-
lures advanced Friday, encouraged
by the big advance at Liverpool and
bullish export trade advices. January
set a new high record at $3S.S5.

gave way beneath his weight or had
deteriated to such an extent that it
had fallen apart and the young
man stepped off into space, falling a
distance of about forty feet to the
pavement Of the mine
At the time of the occurrence DR..
Melody, young Foley's brother and
other employees were present and
sensing that something had befallen
Foley search was made and he was
found and brought to the surface, and
after receiving first aid at the Oakland
Sanatorium he was taken to the Cum
berland Hospital in the Bolden am
buiance where, it was stated this morn
ing. the patient has a chance for re-
coyery~- provided no complications

YOugh Manor Coal Sold.

On Monday of this week, Mr.. Ed
ward H. Sincell and Mr.. Charles Mil
ton Sincell, his son, who held an option
on the coal underlying the tract of
land called Yough Manor, containing
about 1906 acres, located on both
sides of the Youghiogheny River be-
tween Sang Run and Friendsville, in
this county, closed a sale of the coal
to Mr.. Warner G. Earnshaw, of Phila-
delphia, Pa. Mr.. Earnshaw intends
to start the development of the prop
erty at once and hopes to begin shipp-
ing coal within few weeks. The
plant will be located at or near Ken
dali, the southern terminus of the
Confluence & Oakland Railroad, and
as rapidly as place can be made for
them, large number of miners will
be given employment. This means
much for Friendsville and the sur
rounding section of the county, and
the good effects to result from this
purchase and the development of the
property on large scale will be gen.
eral throughout the county.

CANNERY CLOSED FOR YEAR
Management Extremely Well Pleased
With This Seasons Business

The Mount Airy Canning Company
closed its plant at Loeb Lynn last
Friday, having finished the canning
season for peas, this year The grow
ers were highly pleased with the yield,
and the canning company was more
than pleased with the quality of the
peas.
Thirty acres of peas were delivered,
representing twenty-one growers, with
a net average yield of 1902 pounds
per acre. The highest net yield per
acre was 3,408 pounds. These were
Horseford Garden peas and were
grown by Mr.. S. W. Slabaugh, of
Gortner.
The average yield per acre net, in
dollars and cents was $3.50 on all
peas delivered. The highest yield, net,
was Sl05.S4 per acre.
The average yield, as noted, was
good in spite of the fact that the ma
jority of the peas sown this year were
a mixed variety and did not yield as
they should have. With good seed and
a properly prepared and properly fer
tilted seed bed there is no reason
why the growers should not get at
least 5000 pounds of peas per acre.
Mr.. Fooks, the president of the
canning company, is we'll pleased with
the prospects here and is willing to
put up a permanent plant if the peo-
pie want it.
Mr.. Fooks will be in the office Of
the County Agent, Saturday, August
14th, from 1000 to 1900 o'clock, to
meet with those who grew peas this
year and any others who may be in.
terested in the proposition and want
to make the cannery a permanent
thing. Come to the meeting Saturday
and give him an idea about how many
peas you are willing to put out next
year. The interest shown Saturday
will determine whether you will have
a cannery on not. Remember the
hour-10:00 o'clock.

A Correspondent Makes Timely Sug-
gestiOn Regarding Lighting and
Electric Power.

Electric POWer.
To the Editor of The Republican.
Why not have a new electric light
ing system in Oakland? We have been
in the dark several nights this week as
a sample of what we may expect
this winter and many more summers
and winters yet to come, unless the
business men of the town awaken to
the fact that no lights mean no bust
ness. Can we as residents and bust
ness men of the community afford to
have this state of affairs continue?
Would it not be well to go to work
now and create company or corpo-
ration made up of individuals, buy
a site and erect plant and not wait
until winter comes when if conditions
continue as they have for some weeks
past, we will be so in the dark that we
will not even be able to reason our
way out.
Every town should be we'll lighted.
Wickedness in every form thrives in
the dark, while prosperity, health and
happiness lives and grows only in the
light. We can afford a good electric
lighting system. Every small village
is now equipped with electric lights
with day and night current. Why can't
we? All the housewives want the
current so that work will be made
easier in this day of no help.
Many more people will come to Oak
land to live if we can assure them
these conveniences. They go where
they can get them.
would suggest that company be
made up of the business men. Let
each one be interested to the extent of
at least one share of stock. This is

Federal Food Administrator
Williams informs us that if a
family destitute of clothing Nov.
% had waited until February,
they could have saved 1881 in
getting outfitted. The mans
outfit dropped from $3.50 to
$82.95 and the woman's from
$4,000 to $112.55. We suspect
that Williams is talking for
psychological effect" rather
than on the basis of any real
data. But the sad thought oc-
ours, if many people had not
bought clothing last November
they would have no need now
for either the clothing or the
1881.

AN HONEST DAYS WORK.


When labor organizes for the
purpose of obtaining a fair wage
and proper working conditions
it is entitled to the support of all
right thinking people.
When it organizes or uses it's
organizations to restrict produc-
ton, it becomes menace to the
public welfare and merits uni
versal opposition and condemna-
ton.
The eight-hour day met with
popular approval on the assump-
ton that with the incentive of a
shorter day labor would work
faithfully and diligently.
1t was not intended that labor
should at the same time either
actually or relatively become less
efficient OF less productive.
Had the public realized the
product of days labor would
thereby be actually and relative
ly reduced, the eight-hour day
would never have been establish
ed except for female labor.
Labor is fed by the products of
the ranch and farm. The ranch
er and farmer have no eight
hour day. Crops are neither
sown, cultivated nor harvested on
an eight-hour scale; nor do they
grow and ripen by any artificial
formula, scale or rule, promulat-
ed by man.
Why, as was aptly asked by q
farmers organization, should a
farmer be compelled to work 88
hours a week to feed city chap
receiving higher wages who
works but ID? Is it the divine
duty of the farmer because he is
not organized to feed the latter
because he is?
| Organized labor will do well to
change its course. If it con-
tinues to abuse the eight-hour
day by Stacking on the lob while
labor in other countries with
which we compete is producing
to full capacity either our indus
tries must topple and fall or the
eight-hour day must GO.
| In other words no arrange
ment can long prevail which
does not maintain reciprocal re-
lations between volume and cost
OF production, OF which does not
contemplate and insure that for
a full days pay there shall be
rendered an honest days work.
| We can succeed neither as an
industrial nation or people if we
are going to spend one-third of
our time in sleep, another in a
rocking chair or limousine, and
the remaining third trying to OBJ
tain the greatest amount of pay
for the least amount of work.
No industry, no country and no
people can long endure or sur
vive the blighting effect of such
an economic antithesis.
