the People Who do the Work y 1 THE IRISH IN AMERICA Ono hot evening m July last 1 stood oq the brink of a little canal that skirts a row of noble build ings constituting the largest textile mill in New England and perhaps in the world and watched hun dreds and thousands of mill hands pour over the bridge that connects the mills with the town of which they arc the chief support and pride As the great bell clanged forth its siX peals one could hear the cessation of toil for the day The mighty turbines fed by this canal from the mernmac ceased to revolve the great Corliss en genes that in recent years have come to the aid of water power in all Jig mills came to a stop the three hundied thousand spindles the eight thousand looms and the thousands of other ponderous ma chines ingenious and effective almost past belief for picking cleaning roving bleaching print ing drying and finishing the ono hundred million yards cf cotton and woolen goods turned out from these mills every yearall this vast mass of machinery scattered over sixty acres of flooring came to a stop Belltime as six oclock in the afternoon is called in all New England milltowns had come In place of the hum in and clatter of machinery the pat ter of innumerable feet made itself heard Then the first of the of five thousand operatives beganI to come first by driblets compris ing those who did not need to wash or care to then the larger streams as the doors of some great room lar were thrown open each operative having to go and come by a special staircase in order to avoid the gorging of any particular exit in case of fire and finally the dense stream of humanity male and fee male big and little until the broad iron bridgcwas packed and shook under the strain Brownf ings description of the rats as It came in answer to the three shrill notes of the Pied Piper came to up my mind- I Is hope that should any of the mill hands of this particular mill ever read these lines they will take no offence at the comparison The picture was not an unpleasant one it had just the diversity suggested be by the poet There were men and is women boys and girls of allages and colorseven green and blue to and yellow and stripedfor the operatives in the printing and dyeing shops arc as apt to be cov be ered with color as the miller is of powdered with flower here were to the fat and the lean the tall and the short pretty women and womenless pretty dark and fairt neat and sloven And it should be said here that no such squalid poverty saddens the visitor to these mills as can be seen in every Manufacturing town in England Every woman and girl wore shoes in the poor slattern barefooted and with a ragged shawl thrown over her head that one finds by the thousand coming from the cotton mills of Ebgland was conspicuous by her ab enceThe women and girls of our manufacturing towns especially where the native Ameri can stock still holds its own re c tain a vivid appreciation of pretty things in dress and adornment In some of the cotton towns such as Fall River where the French Canadian and the Irish have driven the Yankee girl from the spindles and the loom there is less concert for personal appearance than in Lynn for instance with its American shoe operatives or in ManI chestewith its American thread makers Among the more recent recruits to the mills are the Ar1 menians and Polish Jews of whom there are some in almost all the New England manufacturing townsWatching the privates of this army of workers pour forth from the mills where they have been atI work since half past six in the morning with an hours test at noon and bearing in mind the fact that these mills have been hi steady and profitable operation for nearly half a century the Manage mentoftbis vast machine for turning

processes of manufacture them selvesOne feature of the manufacture ing industries of a country that I makes them of perhaps more in terest than the agricultural indus tries is the constant change in the character of the product as weUast the methods of manufacture The farmers products seldom or never change The wheat scaled in Egyptian tombs fifteen hunt years before the birth of Christ is found to be identical with that grown inEgypt today and upon being planted yields a simi crop to that note grown Not only do manufactured objects change every few years but theS field is constantly enlarged by thet appearance oi new things to maket things not dreamed of a few years ago Electricity now gives employment tondreds of Wous = suds of persons whose great grand Fathers never heard of a telegraph telephone an electric light or a motor While new farms spring every day in the wilderness it always the same old wheat or corn that results But every dayt some new factory begins out a product the like ofwhich was never seen before and in some cases let us hope may notI seen again More than this it not reasonable to suppose thatI this stream of novelty which began flow with the printing press the steamengine and the electric spark will ever cease It would strange if we happy possessors these wonderful tools unknown our forefathers should fail to profit by them apd turn out still more wonderful things in the fu une The next century ought certainly to give the world giftsas valuable as steam and electricity The factories of 1997 will make wonders ol which we have no con ception

that time I in tended writing of my experience in in this line as I think it must be unusual I neglected to do so but lately our boy has made such anI advance that I would lilts to know any other mothers have loft a like experienceWhen boy was only a fewI months old he could be quieted by singing If unusually fretful his father would sing second and the two voices would soon soothe him When less than two years old he showed great interest and fondness for music played by an orchestra at a summer hotel He was always quiet while the music was performed and during intervals would in sist in his baby way for more At this time he learned the first eight notes of Manhattan Beach At sixteen months when I would begin to sing him to sleep if I did not sing the tune he wanted he would sayIINol and when asked what mother must sing he would sing in a descending scale gala laII and would never be sat isficd until I found the songs he wanted Often I would try a great many before the right one was found At twenty months he would keep perfect time to bright lively music by pounding with his hand on a table or chair He is twentyseven months old now and for the past months has been able to tell me the names of many tunes I would hum or play on the piano He knows upwards bl two dozen airs and will not ale low me to sing the words of one song to the tune of another Every few days a new tune will strike his fancy and he will remember it an ask for it For some time he ha been humming parts of songs an now sings quite a number He knows the words and music to some of these songs to other- d only the chorus and to America Marching Through Georgia and a few more heonly hums the air He is very correct and keeps perfect time Ho often asks mil to sing about things which have happened tc him and 1 do so to the tune o- s fOld Kentucky Home the one y one he will allow for that purpose And now he sings his experience and other narratives to the sam c tune and manages to make tin a ofL t 5 fr meter right repeating words if there are too few for the line I sing i large variety of songs to himI andjif I stop suddenly he will p p 1 ply he proper word and note We 1 vlot tried to teach him but he is very quick and his memory is surprising Some of his songs are uMfY Hada Little LambI Crows Hark I hear a Voice Three Blind Mice Noble Duke of York etc College Gngs are his favorites There is np special musical abil ity ip the family though we are all fondjof music His father and I sing ducts and he always asks for certain ones One evening about a moithago I was playing a va iclyf hucs for him He was loscby and much interested 1 wanted to play Marching through Gcorgia tto se if he would recog tr Theother = tunes were ringing in my head and I could not remember how the air started His father was also at a loss so I asked the boy Pic thought a mo I mcnt then began to hum stopping with No Again he tried andI with the same result but the third time he tried and hesang the air perfectly using lalala for his wordsM A M in Babyhood The Irish In America Irishmen have rarely ever received a finer tribute than that which fell from the lips of Hon- G F Hoar the venerable United States senator from Massachu settsSpeaking at the banquet to Dr Conaty in Worcester Mass Senator Hoar delivered himself of the following noble sentiments liThe single event most impor tant to Massachusetts after the Rev olution ended until the rebellion broke out was the Irish immigra tion which began 18o We had good reason to bid them welcome The relation of Ireland to Massachusetts and to American liberty has been quite close from the be ginning In 1676 when Massa chusctts was suffering from the terrible effects ol King Phillips warthe generous people of Ire lad sent over a contribution for our reliefThey played no unimportant part inthe Revolutionary service One of the most striking and noble figures in that military history is the brave Irishman Montgomery The greatest

and Statements From Five of the Election Officers of the VP Mill Precinct L SUBSTANTIATE THE CHARGE w That Walter M Young ttempted to Cast a Fraudulent Vote at the ElectionLate WAS IT MEANT FOR BRYAN The Character of These Gentlemen Above Assault Even Through the Latest and Vilest Aye nue of Anonymous s Letters heLas week THE DEE gave pub licity to a piece of Boodle liter ature in the form of an explicit and detailed affidavit from W L Cun ningham an honest small farmer of the Nebo country which carried with it the conviction of its truthfulness and disturbed the Popo cratic demagogues and the unscru pulous Mail as they have not been disturbed since the morning after the late election which culminates today in the inauguration ceremon ies at Washington eThey and the Mail have been given swing at the alleged boodler agent of the Republican party The Mail has rung the changes constantly on this theme and THE BEE has kept its own counsel and let them rave All forces possible have been mar shalldd in the attempt to prejudice public sentiment into the belief that a crime had been committed at Nortonville because forsooth as TilE BEE stated last week a sum of money was left with a Norton ville man to be handed to the Republican precinct committeeman to be used for legitimate campaign purposes which money was neither delivered nor returned All pressure possible has been brought to bear by the Mail and the popocratic demagogues behind it to force an indictment as a matter of politics without reference to the facts in the case They have played their hand without scruple and charin forcaltpushed with all ardor before the grand jury who after thorough investigation dismissed the matter without returning an indictment as an unbiased grand jury must in the very nature of the case have doneIn his affidavit Mr Cunningham told what he knew of genuine ras cahty on the part of the Demo crats in their attempts to buy votes at Nebo TilE BEE although for some time in possession of the facts in the Nebo case has not interposed these facts in the way of the complete and thorough investigation of the Nortonville matter which seemed to be demanded by many of the honest but misinformed people of the county It is best that the grand jury should have investigated JWat case which has been so continuously exploited and misrepresented since its occurrence and that they should have been allowed to do so without the interposition of any countercharges They have done this and have deI clarqd by their actions that they do not see cause to indict Fol lowing this the Mail has grossly betrayed its indiscreet friendor friends on that jury and defamed and maligned certain jurors whomi with the combined aid of office seeking popocratic ring politi cians it was unable to influence against their sense of right and usticeIn with the Cunningham affidavit Tits BEE published two other items which have been quietly kept on tap for use at the proper time One of these items was with regard to the misappro priation of the money left with the I Nortonville free silver man to be delivered to the Republican pre cinct committeeman to be used legitimate campaign purposes which moneythe famous twentyfiveseems to have re mained in the hands of that am- itious free silver aspirant for- ounty officeat least as THE BEE the money was never delivered nor returned The other item was with reference to the attempt of Mr Walter Young the Mails senior pro rictof to cast a vote at the late- lection to which he was not entitled Here is the exact language used by TUB BEE upon this point One of the many straws that Indicate the onesty and high motives whIch actuate management of the Mall is the record the attempt by the man who Is known its senior proprietor to cast a fraudulent vote for Bryan When challenged ho instated on voting t admitted that be had not been In tbd unty tbo proper length of time He not have Ignorant of the law d persisted In attempting to violate the t law Mr J D Martin was the challenger Mr Dayton Cooke and others witnessed the attempt The gooJ name and reputation of Iho gentleman who composed tha reported minority of tbo grand jury Is enough to defend them against defamation at the hands of the journyman editor oapaper with such a record The Mail and its senior pro pretor get wicked over this bit of election news which they hoped was gone and forgotten and play- a big bluff by denying the whole matter and demanding the proof After quoting TilE BEES comments upon this point as produced above the Mail in its usual delicate and tasty manner speaks thus 5 It is false from beginning to end and would not be noticed save for the fact that the editor of the TUB DEB brings in the names of two honorable gentlemen of Madisonvillc The senior proprietor of the Mail challenges the editor of TUB Bex to produce the proof of hJs assertions Messrj WW Showers J D Martin Dayton Cooke A W Denny and other election officers were present and TUB BBS contemptible stand convicted of malicious and willful falsehood Dare is a good word In thu S- matter TilE BEE sustains its past recordof proving all its assertions and it may ever be expected to prove what it says The following affidavit from three honorable gentlemen of Mad isonville covers the case fully and briefly and will probably be conS sideted proof even by Tin MAILWe the undersigned late officers of election for the election held on November 3 1896 in and for the Mill Precloct in Hopkins county Ky hereby certify tbs t during the hours in the polls were open for voting on said day in said pre duct Mr Walter M Young of Madison uijle Ky appeared before the officers of Uponbeingnot been in the county six months and was told that be could not vote but In sisted that he was born and raised in the State and ought to be allowed to vote Witness our hands this 27th day of Pcb mary 1897 JudgeIChallengerSubscribed s February 27 1897 J C BACON J P I1C The affidavit of these gentlemen substantiates THE BEES charges that Mr Walter M Young did attempt to cast a fraudalent vote that he was challenged that he admitted that he had no properlengtltvoting saying that he was born oughttohe was refused a vote The only point of THE BEES assertions not covered by this affidavit is that the vote that Mr Young attempted to cast was in tended for Bryan If Mr Young will make affidavit that he in tended to vote for McKinley or Palmer THE BEE will takepleasure n retracting that part of its state mentAfter securing this affidavit TilE BEE saw Mr Ernest Nisbet at the

Mr Nisbet saul Yes I was challenger for the Democratic party in the Mill precinct at the rate elec tion Mr Walter Young came to the polls to vote and I turned him back He came there to vote and would have voted if we had al lowed it Upon being asked whether Mr Young had argued his case after being told he could not vote Mr Nisbet saidttYes that Mr Young had continued by offering the argument to the effect that ha was born and raised in the State and ought to be allowed to vote TirE BEE called the same day to see Mr Dayton Cooke who was also one of the election officers in the Mill precinct but Mr Cooke was out However Mr Cooke re members and has so stated that Mr Young did attempt to vote in that precinct THE BEE was unable to see Mr Wash Rhea that day He came to town just after the editor left But on Monday he was seen and gave to THE liEu the following statement in writing which so far as it goes is directly corroborative of the affidavit of Messrs Utterback Mar tin and Showers and the interview with Mr Nisbet Here is Mr Rheas statement As I remember the occurreace Mr Walter Young appeared before the election officers in the at Madisor ville Kyi on November 3 1896 for the purpose of voting and made a statement butwasrefused a vote I do not remember who challenged him nor just what passed in the discussion This March t 1897WASH M RIIKA He remembers that Mr Young came to the polls to vote that a general discussion of the case en sued and that Mr Young was de nied a vote As he states he docs not remember who challenged him nor the details of the discussion Mr Rhea also remarked that he believed the board of officers that served in the Mill precinct were all thoroughly conscientious and only wanted to see justice done In this opinion THE BEll heartily concurs Thus Mr Walter Young of the Mail stands convicted of the charge against him upon the testimony of Messrs R B Utterback W W Showers J D Martin Wash Rhea and Earnest Nisbet all honorable gentlemen of the highest character and citizenship whose statements the Mail will not dare to question even in its latest and vilest manner of attacking the char acter of honest men through the dutylowflung DOWN IN

Frankfurt has this to say about Inspector Norwood State Inspector of Mines Norwoods commission expires tomorrow but no successor to him will be appointed before April x and it begins to be probable that ho will holds on indefinitely And we will add that we hope after a careful considera ion of the matter that Governor Bradley can see his way clear to reappoint him We say this because the operators and 1niners alike regard him as a man will adapted for the position be bold andagain the records will show that under him such a thing as an accident from improper ventilation when his orders are carried tout has become a thing of the past When the Governor selects men to fill post lions under him it is natural to believe be aims to select those qualified for the positions and we do hope he will keep a one who has been tried and not found wanting The sad news reached here last Friday that Carl Humphrey a nephew of Mrs McCarley of this place had met with an accident in the Scbree

spent as the best field on the farm But it will be a poor investment if it is neglected and suffered to go to ruin Cultivation is indispensable to enable the soi to contribute its fertility to the trees The surface must not be left untouched to become covered with rank weeds or moss to lie bare and barren There is noth ing better than a crop of clover and this should be permitted to die down and decay on the sur face j A plow should never be suffered in an orchard Only the sarfao should be stirred lest the fine feeding roots may be injured and the trees checked in their growth Agocd

bees It is so rarely that bees are found upon the farm now adaysthat inquiries were made as to the farmers experience He said he keeps bees at all times and always had a supply of honey for his own table and a surplus to sell exciptin the poorest honey years Hgets as much as 80 pounds of surplus honey from a colony an4 this sells very readily at his comeffor 1234C a pound The in home from this docs not seem large but When there arc twenty or more colonies and each of them returns from JG to 10 a season it adds to tho revenue of the farm and is almost clear proht as the labor o- ftakinare of bees is hardly worth considering Honey will always be one of the luxuries and there will never come a lime when pure honey can not be sold at a good price The cities are full of ranks imitations of honey that sell at honey prices and any one who is able to furnish a supply of pure comb honey and get it to market in good shape may be sure of getting from 150 to 20C a pound for it DISEASES OF

situated only a mile cast of Bardstown It was here that one of the most touching and famous songs of the century was composed sung This old Kentucky home has been in the posses ion d the Rowan family for nearly a century Judge John Rowan once a United States Sen ator from Kentucky and during his day one of the most famous jurists of the West resided here for years His son the Hon John Rowan Jr who was a man of splenkid intellect and who held high official position during his lifetime lived here until his death Since then his widow once a lady of great beauty and renowned popularity and who even in her old age retains much of these splendid gifts has resided Yes it was here that My Old Kentucky Home was composed and sung One beautiful morning while the darkies were at work in the corn fields and the sun shone with mighty splendor upon the waving grainfirst giving it a color of light red then changing it to a golden huethere was sated upon an old bench in front of this his toric mansion two young people- a brother and a sister High up in a treetop was a mocking bird warbling its sweet notes Over in the hidden recesses of a small bush the thrushs mellow song could be heard A number of small darkies were playing near the not far away cabin door The air was refreshingjust one of those May mornings when all nature seems so beautiful and the feelings of everyone so comfort able The young man was of me dium size with a strong and pleasant face Beside him was seated a young woman of great beauty Her hair hung over her shoulders in long golden tresses her form was sym metrical and her face was unus ually beautiful- When the brother had finished the first verse the fair girl took the paper from his hand and sang in a oft sweet voice The sun shines bright on my old Kentacky borneTis the darkies are all gay The corn tops ripe and the meadows in the bloom While the birds are making music al the day- boyotmg folks roll on the little cabin floor All merry all happy all bright ym by bard times comes aknocking at the door Then myoId Kentucky home good nigbtl On finishing the first verse the mocking bird descended to a lower bough The feathery songster rcw his head to one side and appeared to be completely enrap uredat the wonderful voice of the young singer When the last sweet note had died away upon the air her fond brother who had just finished the chorus sang in a deep bass voice Weep no more my lady 0 weep no more todaytWe11 you one song for the old Ken tucky home lor our old Kentucky home far away The darkics had laid down the hoe and the rake the little tots had placed themselves behind the large sheltering trees while the old black women were peeping around the corner of the mansion The faithful old house dog which lay basking in the sun never took his eye off of the young singers Everything was still not even the stirring of the leaves seemed to break the wonderful silence Again the brother and sister took hold of the remaining notes and both sang in sweet accents another verse They hunt no more for the possum and the coou On tbe meadow the hill and the shore They ting no more by the glimmer of the moon On the bench by the old cabin door The days go by like a shadow oer the heartWith where all was delight The lime has come when the darkies have to part Then my old Kentucky home good night The thrush and the mockingbird drew closer and closer to he singers as theycontinued The head must bow and the back will have to bend Wherevor the darkles may go A few more days and the trouble all will end In the field where the sugar canes grow A few days more to tote the weary load No matter it will never be light A few more days till we totter on the road Then myoid Kentucky home good night As the singers finished tears flowed down the old darkies cheeks The very little children emerged from their hiding place with broad smiles upon their faces The mocking bird and the thrush took wings to their homes while the old coon dog still lay basking in the sun at the feet of the beau tiful young maiden The young people were Stephen Collins Foster and Eliza C Foster Both were residents of Pennsyl vania but upon this occasion had come to Kentucky upon the pres sing invitation of Judge Rowan to pay him an extended visit Foster was the composer of many beauti ful songs but none of them the equal ofliMy Old Kentucky Home U ur Joloted

Come out to the reading room tonight What do you think of the crowd they bad out from Madisonville Sunday night to the dance It is hoped that the trustees will some day learn the duty of trustee They employ a strange teacher and turn him in at the school house door without knowing the manner of his ruling and when any thing occurs between the teacher and the pupils they do not wait until they get the understanding of the matter but they reach up and catch it asit passes by and carry It before the public and put both feet on it and begin to cut and gnash until they excite the organs of speech and overwork their heart and lungs and then gives up in despair because it cannot afford air enough to run hIs tongue They make it appear to the people as if a volcano had exploded but when we begin
