The striking machinists at Spencer have published a paper which they say they intend to send out daily. Its name is The Broad Axe, and it is de voted to the interests of the strikers. In its editorial columns, Sunder - the caption of "First Wrords," it says? In the face of the most bitter oppo- sition the Daily Broad-Axe makes its appearance. No tongue nor pen can tioscr.oe tne many miseranie metnocis lnat nave been used by the enemies of organized labor to head off the pub- lication of a newspaper that wage- earners can call their friend. The Broad-Axe banners were un banners furled to the breezes, and soon the bowling winds of opposition raged, and the raged rascals ranged their lusty muskets, and now we see the goose that stood behind the gun, dead ?" The policy of this paper is under the control of a committee appointed by ThP Salisbury Central Labor Union. committee is composed of repre setntatives from each trade union of Salisbury and are men of sound judg ment and good sense. It Is their pur pose to have the paper conducted on a broad guage basis. They believe that all men are born equal and that eo belong in the ranks of organized labor is not a crime. ttt v,n v,o triarT tn livp in neace TVe shall be giaa to ne m peace ith all men. If we cannot, then we with all men shall be glad to live. The paper will speak out against the oppressor, but shall speak kindly of the friendly manufacturer. Its policy shall be to build us, and not break down deserv ing men and measures. The question of education shall be disucssed con tinuously in these columns. . Many a man who is open to con viction manages to escape it by hang ing tjhe jury. At,-the age of sweet sixteen a wo man's rights are several lengths ahead of a man's. COUNTER PETITION PRESENTED.

The Board of Aldermen met last night in adjourned session, with the following aldermen present: Merri mon, Helms, Bain, Denny, Sefgeant, Glascock, Phipps, Elam and Sherwood. This being an adjourned meeting no minutes were read. Dr. W. L. Grissom presented a petition from citizens residing on West Market street, and streets lying adjacent thereto, asking that the said street be graded, and put in condition for the operation thereon of a street railway, and asking further that no amendment be made to the franchise already granted the Greensboro Elec tric Company, prohibiting their operat ing street cars on the said street. Th?s petition was signed by 90 persons. It was maved that the petition be re ferred to the Street Committee. Car ried. Mr. G. C. Hampton presented a peti tion signed by. a number of citizens living on Lithia street and streets ad jacent thereto, asking that Lithia street be graded so that the car line could be run on said street. Moved that this petition be referred to the Street Committee. Carried. Mr. Z. V. Taylor appeared and asked that the Board pass an ordinance that no person or persons shall engage in the business of baggage transfer with out a license,and without having depos ited with city a certified bond of $500 to indemnify any person whose bag gage is lost or damaged. Not less than three wagons shall be operated by any firm or individual, and the drivers of each and every wajjon shall wear a uniform, to wit, a cap, bearing th2 name of the party owning the line, and underneath the word, bonded. Alderman Bain thought that the or dinance was a monopoly and that per son who was a responsible person and could give the necessary bond but who could operate but one wagon, should be kept out. Alderman Merrimon moved that the clause relating to the number of wa gons be changed to one. Motion lost by a vote of 6 to S, and the ordinance was adopted by a similar vote. Mr. Taylor asked that an inspector be appointed, whose business it shall be to inspect the wiring of every house before turning electricity in said house, said inspector to file a report of each house wired with the city clerk, before the current is turned in. Said inspect or's fee for inspecting a house to be 51.00. Moved that the office of electric ins pector be created. Carried. Alderman Glascock moved that Mr. F. A. Barr be elected electric inspector Carried. Mr. P. D. Gold, Jr., asked that the Board make some arrangements where by the meeting of the Press Associa tion may be held in the now uncom pleted auditorium in the City Hall, whether the building has been received by the city or not. Alderman Glascock moved that the matter be referred to the building committee and that the city attorney with power to act. Car ried. Alderman Denny moved that a war rant be ordered drawn in favor of Ab bott & Hobbs in payment of their working setting curbing. Carried. The settling committee, which is composed of the Finance Committee, made their report. This report, is in a large measure a reproduction of the renort of the city treasurer, publish- ed in The Telegram about the first of Mav- , , L " . -anaiveA nnrr ordered sureaci O.

Mr. Merrimon stated that the Fi- nance Committee had waited upon the ff t banks in the city asking them to Bubmitaa proposition to loan the Mtv a sum of mony necessary to meet the current indebtedness of th citg .

Alderman Sherwood thought that the money remaining over from the electric bonds could be loaned the city and used to pay warrants until the tax money came in. The City Attorney said that the loan -ing of the money in that manner would be contrary to the provisions of the bill, which specifically stated that the money was to be used in the maaner specified, and none other. He also thought that the city could not ap point any bank as a depository unless the treasurer agreed, as the official had charter privileges which would have to be changed before the city could designate a depository without his consent. Alderman Merrimon moved that the proposition submitted by the Southern Loan & Trust Company be accepted by the Board, and that the city treas urer be requested to give his consent thereto. (A detailed account of this matter appears in another column.) Alderman Helms moved that the Fi nance Committee and the Mayor be empowered to borrow an amount not to exceed $25,000 to pay all indebtedness of the city until August. Carried. Alderman Helms introduced an or- dinace to the effect that any person convicted of defacing or destrying bill board advertisements or signs be fined not less than $1 nor more than $20. Carried. The question of a license tax being charged to manufacturers was brought up, and it was moved and carried that all manufacturers be charged no spe cial license tax. Board adjourned. A Dangerou Place, Ashevilie Citizen. The death of Marvin Crowell by drowning in Montiford park yesterday is the second misfortune which has be fallen a member of the family of Jo seph Crowell with in the last few weeks. Another son, as told in The Citizen recently, had his leg sprained by a horse falling on him, and he ha not yet recovered. The Montford park pond is an ex ceedingly dangerous place to go swim ming for one like young Crowell, who could not swim. The pond is only about 15 feet across, but it is 10 feet deep in the center and the banks are very shelving. Boys have been in swimming there very frequently lately, and could not be kept out. Capt. C. H. Camp bell of the park has made every effort to keep the boys out. He drove1 them away whenever he knew of their being there, and intended to have the next boy he caught there arrested to make an example of him. The interment of young Crowell will take place today at Hendersonville. where his parents have relatives buri ed. The body was taken there on the afternoon train south. There was a service here, held at 1 o'clock at th'j residence on Seney street. At the Baptist Church. The Children's Day exercises at the First Baptist church last night was well attended, and those who went were amply repaid for their presence. The little tots acquitted themselves weli. Their songs and recitations were fresh and sweet, and were pleasing to the listeners. The recitations of eight of the tots, four of them costumed as Chinese, and four as Americans, was a pleasing fea ture of the evening. One of the prettiest features of the evening, a solo by Miss Ula Adams,was omitted because of the misplacement of the music. Took the Wrong Medicine.
