All friends of bumanity.should sym
pathize with labor in any honorable
effort to rid themselves of oppression,
and the cruel tyranny of corporations
and hungry greed of money cormor
ants. The attempt to secure fewer
hourf nf labor is certainly a commend
able one, and recommends itself to all
philanthropists. We are not Inclined
to belie vo that eight hours ought to be
a full days work, but certainly fourteen
hours a day should never be demanded
cf any human being. There are a
preat many private corporations, such
a railroad.-, strwt ear lines and facto
ries, that exact too much of their ser
vants. This is sheer brutality; the men are
forced to endure hardships which tWe
rich owners would not endure for a
moment.
If the employers desire the good will
of tilth servants, they should treat
tlicm as human beings,. and not embit
ter labor against capital by grinding
labor in the dust and heaping wrong
.upon injury. "The smart of a poor
mail's sweat is the power of the
w orld." and is more of a factor in the
world than money, and should not fee
dirLU'.'d to by money.
Ccplbal is blind to its own true inter
est when It pushes labor down to the
life limit; when labor is obtained at the
! of blood, it is a custly article. He
idono is the true friend of humanity
v ho dignities labor and makes it hon
orable. Tln-e who persist in wronging fu'oor

of them, will you allow me to glv
somo ftieta. Mr. Morgan Kees lea bV,

keep that cemetery, and the balance to
the academy. A largo majority of the
cltixens of Lebanoa and vlelulty be
lieve that the present cemetery will
have to be moved, and they do not care
to spend money fixing It up. I know
itlsamarkofclviliiatlon for the llv
Ing to care for the resting place of the
dead, but It is no mark of cIvHizaslon
nor good taste for people to have a
grave yard right iu town. 1 t all go
to work to get a suitable place or else

means let us clean up the old grave
yard, but let us no longer mock decen

A Baker City girl, signing her name
ns Daisy, gives the Bevellle man a few
iMilntcrs on kissing. Wo would recom
mend the adoption of the rules by
somo of the Union boys, salth the
Oregon Bcout, and thinking It may be
ot snmo benefit to somo of our Lena,
non boys we give it also. Palsy says:
I am getting tired of having my hair
all UDset and my cosago bouquet all
torn to pieces by beginners, and I be
lieve If the dear boys were only told
how to go about it, they would not
muke sneli a mess of it. Tell them,
please, that there is no necessity for
grubbing a girl as if she had stolen a
I ocket book, and making a lurch at
her as though they had accidentally
stepped foot In a coalhole whilst walk
ing rapidly along the street- There Is
no actual necessity to get a clutch on
her dress and try to tear It off, or turn
her over hiBide of It There Is no ne
cessity of pulling her head forward
with such Intensity that her eyes are
endangered by scarf pins and long
pencils protruding from upper vest
pockets. Thore is no use of firing a
kiss promiscuously at her eyes, her ear
or her neck. To begin with, the girl is
not trying to get away. Keep cool,
bear In mind that you htve her soul
ful sympathy, and your aims are iden
ticalthat she has as much at stake as
you have. Keep perfectly cool and
collected, gently insert your right coat
sleeve about her directoire costume
and turn her gently toward your man
ly form. Place your other and yet un
occupied arm in such a position as the
exigences cf the occasion seem to de
mand, and give n gentle and soulful
pull, as Amelia 1'tlvcs Chandler calls it.
By this time the "Uosebuir Mouth," n.s
you see fit to call it, is turned toward
you. Lean over gently and let na
ture do her work.
The whole of the New Vork Ti-iUime
is now fret by a type-setting machine
which dovs the work of ihrec nien.
The njre t,f improvement is making
great inroadson theold trades and pro
fussions. The type-setter has held on
to his calling since the days of (iutteu
l.iirg with little or no apprehension
that his business would ever be taken
from him. There have been marvel
ous changes in presss-work, but men
believed that no machine would c vet
bo nl.l'f t set type, but now at lat, af
ter years of experimenting, the work
hns been accomplished, and several of
the greatest daily iie-wspnpurH -of the
country are using .the "lintotype" to
dotlifi work of the typo. If any one
thinks' that these machines are not
practical let him look at a copy of tho
New Vork Tribune, and ho will wu
that' the days of the type-setter are
about at nn end. Tho machine is a
complicated one, and was invented by
a man by the namo of Mcrganthaler,
of Baltimore. The typo sits at the ma
chine, which somewhat resembles. a
piano, and plays upon a key. board
which looks exactly like that of a type
writer. 'The machine nwcs the trouble
of distributing the typo mid d.es Us
own correcting. Truly we arc living
in an age of wonders.
