A remarkable boycott is in progress

that city, a member, of the printers
union, married a non-union epwposit-
or and then tried to get him to join
him to join the order. He refused,
Tandtoe union voted a boycott in which
the wife participated, having left her
husband and begun proceedings foT a
divorce.
We are reliably informed that a few
years ago a man living in this county
went home about 10 o’ clock at mghj
while about three-sheets in the wind
and feasted upon a buzzard, Wb cc: his
good wife had.cooked for the oil that
was in the fowl. It is said this man ate
all of this bird, thinking it was a
chicken, and when he was told of
what he feasted upon he then and
there “sWore off” and went to preach

says: “ A newspaper generally is a
picture of toe place in which it is
published, It is received by the outside
worl d as the photograph of the place.
People that say that “it will do no
good, 11 should remember- Every,
business, no matter if large or small,
should*be represented in the home
paper. It is a home institution^ and
should honestly receive all due it, for
the road of the newspaper man is a
tough one at best.” _
see
A good town is that where you
the farmers patronize the home mer
chants laborers spending the money
they earn with their own tradsmen,
and all aimed by a spirit that will not
buy articles abroad if they
bought at home. The spirit
procity between business
mechanics, tradesman and laborer,
,-ffCriiier and manufacturer, results
every time in making the town a
perfect one to live in.
Cleveland, Ohio, January
James Calbaleke is a well-to-do carpen
ter. His wife was out of tem per at the
breakfast table this morning and
refused io talk to her husband. Afte:
he and his oldest son went to work, the
correctly I mother sent two s.ons,. aged fourteei^
andfifteen, no err as. When they come;
not get into the house. In the bad:
yard they found a younger brothei
bleeding from many wounds, Thej
speedily called help and broke into the
house and found their two little sisters,
I a »ed five and three, and a brother, aged
three months, dead from many stabs
A girl of eight was seriously hurt, and
she with the boy found in toe back
yard will probably die! A bloody pair
of shears t( Id the story. A hunt was
made for the mother. She was found
in the cellar hanging from a rafter,
dead. She had killed her three children
mortally injured two others and had
then suicided. The two children who
were still alive were removed to t*
neighbor’s bouse. No cause for the
terrible deed is given. The husband
does npt'think thathis wife was insane.

The venerable James Jackson, who
was the Nector of the medical pr o
fession for so long a time in Boston,
used to say that a man came to toe
prime of his effective faculties when
he was 65 years old. He said that it
was true that the curve of physical
strength was then declining. u ex
perience and the ability to act which
comes from experience, are, of course,
, constantly improving while memory
holds. According to Dr. Jackson, toe
curve of experience and the curve o
physical life cross each other at the
age of 65. ■ .

There is always a sharp competition

The Baltimore American has discov
ed a man who seems to have a great
many qualifications for the place. He
is a clerk in the pension office atWash

ployes have been absent of late owing
to illness. On their return to duty the
clerk obliged them to take oath as
the truthfulness of their statements
before a notary public. He himself
holds that office, and he charged them
60cents apiece.

Cheap Money-SouthemFarmefS.
Southern farmers are frequently ad
vised to plant-more grain and less cot
ton; or, in other words, to ' raise thcii
own Supplies. ,
This is ali very well as far as the ad
vice goes, but how are t hey to do it?
How can they act upon this advice
so tong as they are compelled to bor
row money at ruinously high rates on
growing crops, from factors and mer
chants who refuse to give credit only
on a pledge that sufficient cotton shall
be planted to meet the loan when due,
Merchonts; cotton factors and bank
ers will not credit the farmer on any
thing but cotton. To* this It may be
replied it is toe farmer’s fault that he
is iii debt. i
True, the high price of cotton years
ago tempted the farmer to plant
cotton, borrow money and buy*
supplies—or to purchase them at
enormous profit to too merchant. 1
Admitting that it was a grave e
on the part of the farmer, the fact
mains the same, and the farmer
only get out of debt with cheaper mon
ey, or reasonable credits.
If toe merchant and 'cotton , factor
would be satisfied with, a
per cent, the farm'er could soon I
out of debt, but at the rate be now
pays he cannot. He cannot pay 50 per
cent, and his debts.
The farmer who is in debt cannot, as
a rule, raise his supplies. The| ~
chant and cotton factor will no|
mit him to do so; they practically
compel him to rai«e all cotton.
He “kill the goose that lays toe gol
den egg,” and then in our wisdom
wonder why toe Southern farmer is
not more prosperous. '
If the farmer prospers all other in
terest are in a healthy condition?*"*
While there is apparent present
urosperity to the merchant and cotton
factor, in the enormous rates 4 charged
the farmer, it is only skin deep', and
must eventually result in heavy losses
to all concerned.
We would let up on the former, give
him a chance to live, pay his debts
and make his supplies. A policy that
grinds the farmer injures all interest
alike. ; ..
