FRIDAY, JUNE 7. 1901.
THE Democratic papers continue to wail concerning the constitution following the flag, but they sigh mighty low concerning the many thousands of citizens in the southern states from whom Democratic legislatures have withdrawn both the constitution and the flag.
ISN'T it about time the newspapers were giving the unspeakable Prof. Herron a rest? If anyone has earned oblivion for himself, this distinguished brute certainly has, and the sooner he is swallowed by It the better it will be for society. Such men and the Ideas they parade are dangerous to public decency. AMERICA'S INDUSTRIAL SUPREM
ACY.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat: A fine tribute to the industrial pre-eminence of the United States has just been given by a man in high station in the British government. A Tory member of the house of commons, Sir Alfred Hickman, attacked the ministry because a certain member of it was responsible for the purchase of American-built locomotives and bridges for India. To this assault Lord George Hamilton, the secretary of state for India, has just made a very minute and effective reply. That official says no practical engineer who has ever visited American workshops and inspected their methods of production and manufacture would hold the ideas which Hickman entertains. "Their competition is dangerous," says the secretary, "be cause they are yearly improving their products, both in quality and price." He stated that it had always been the practice of the managerb of the railroads in India to give their contracts to British manufacturers, but recently they were compelled to place some orders for locomotives in America, and now the companies which got the American engines want more of them. For many years past the United States has had the largest locomotive works in the world, the Baldwin. Many hundreds of American-built locomotives are exported every year. They go to all parts of the world. In India and other parts of Asia, in Africa, in South America and throughout Europe the whistle of the American railroad engine is heard. In the building of railroad bridges, too, as the secretary for India and other foreign authorities have said, the Americans have an easy superiority over the rest of the world. The chief reason, as Lord George Hamilton testifies, why the contract for building bridges on the railroads in his section of the world were given to Americans was that the work could thus be done quicker, cheaper and better. These are tributes which mean something. Taken in connection with the indorsements given by other foreign authorities in most of the great lines of manufactures, they account for the immense expansion which has taken place in recent years in the volume of American-made goods which are being sold abroad. They account also for the warnings from Europe's statesmen and diplomats that the Old World is in danger of industrial and commercial subjugation by the New. They are also responsible for the suggestions—wildly absurd and impossible —for a tariff alliance by all the importing countries of Europe to shut out American products from their ports.

Little Nora, daughter of Mrs. Chas. Kellison, formerly of this place, but now of Denver, Colorado, died May 30th of scarlet fever, aged four years, five months and nine days.
Dearest little Nora, thy loss we deeply mourn In our home so lonely now. But 'tis God's will that thou has gone
To dwell with angels above. One more little flower from earth hrs gone One more little jewel bound in heaven. But we heard the Master calling "Come tome." Thy will be done.

Miss Anna Skeith, who has been visiting at the home of her brother and sister, Mr. and Mrs Walter Scott, for several months, returned to her home at Cornwall, Ontario, Canada, on last Tuesday. The evening before Miss Skeith's departure a farewell party was given in her honor by Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Love at their pretty country home. A sociable evening was pleasantly passed in conversation with a liberal sprinkling of fascinating games and refreshments. The rare social qualities of Miss Skeith have won for her a warm place in the hearts of our young people, and her delicate, kind and liberal manner has won our esteem. Such pleasures do greatly sustain life, and may friendship gather yet more fragrant blossoms from the dew bathed meadows of social intercourse to spend their perfume along the path of life.
Although our citizens had been expecting the worst for several days, yet they were inexpressibly shocked Saturday morning upon learning the sad news of the death of James Swearingen, at the home of his father-in-law, Benton Snyder. While expecting the worst, yet his relatives and friends were hoping that a change for the better might take place. But it was hoping against hope, for on Saturday morning, June 1st. 1901, the summons came, and his spirit took its flight from the body racked with pain to its Heavenly home and the recording angel announced his name to the Heavenly hosts as he was ushered into the presence of'his Master, whom he faithfully served, and in whom he always placed implicit faith. The deceased was one of Yountsville's most highly esteemed and amiable young men. His sweet, kind and gentle disposition made him warm friends of all whp came into his presence. He was a loving father, a devoted husband, and a dutiful and obedient son, and in his death a noble young man has gone from among us, but the influence of his Christian life will live on and inspsre those who knew him to emulate his many good qualities. He had been a sufferer from that dread disease, consumption, for almost three years, but prtiently bore his sufferings and trials with Christian fortitude, and when death finally came he was prepared. James G. Swearingen, son of Frances M. and Henrietta Gilkey Swearingen, was born Dec. 13, 1881, and died June 1, 1901, aged 29 years, 5 months and 18 days. He was united in marriage to Miss Myrtle Snyder Oct. 11th, 1898, and to this union waa born one child, baby Henrietta. About three years ago he gave his heart to God and united with the Methodist church, and has remained a zealous and faithful member thereof. The funeral was conducted at the Methodist church at Yountsville Monday morning, June 3d, at 10:30 o'clock, Rev. Daugherty officiating. The large concourse of friends and acquaintances assembled there showed the esteem in which ho was held. The body was laid to rest in the Waynetown cemetery.
