THE miners of Tennessee are not to be

keep the cast-off rabble of Europe from

Tar Carleton (Neb.) Reportor man (2)
no doubt thought he was playing a win-
ning card when he allowed the columns
of his paper to be used by one of our
enemies to abuse us. But he is probably
wiser by this time, as a number of people |
| hére who would have become patrons of
his have: since refused” to lift his paper
from the postoffice. © Following is what
one of the Reporter's own correspondents
has to say about the matter, which is
sufficient to show that every man has his
‘| friends, and the man who wrote the fol
lowing is, as the editor of the Reporter
will not even attempt to dispute, one of
the most, popular and highly. respected
‘{ men in Fillmore county, Neb. ; The said
correspondent, under date of Jan. 1st,
talks to the Reporter man, through his
own columns, in this wise:
“I read the last issue of the Reporter
| through, even to the tirade against Pete
Livengood. Now Ido not ‘pretend to
say that Pete was infallible, or that he
has no faults, but Ido think he got out a
good paper and think also that his going
back to his native home and starting a
paper among his old friends: who knew
him is evidence enough to show that he
was not so utterly depraved. © Of course
Ido not say this to indicate that I am
going to fight Pete's battles for him, for
I think him . perfestly able to ake care
of himself.”
Eprror SunrIE, of Meyersdsle, writes
tous as follows:
“If you have any back numbers of Taz
Star, will you kindly send us numbers 1}
I would like to keep the files of
your paper, but some fellow gotaway

with the first numbers. That's compli-
mentary to you, but a little annoying to
me.
As to the little controversy between us,
go fur us 1 am concerned it will not be
allowed to-interfere” with the feeling of
good will ‘wkich I personally entertain
for you, though the charge brought
against me through your columns hasn't
an atom of truth to rest on. My experi-
ence us a newspaper man has taught me
to expect hard blows and to give them.”
Everybody about this den feels all right,
Mr. Buhrie, and we can assure yon that
there is neither any ill will on our part.
If we have been wrongly informed con-
cerning yon we can’t help it. but some:
body has evidetnly lied in order to make
trouble, if you are innocent, but of course
we don’t know whether you are innocent
or not, as we have no more reason to be-
lieve or.dishelieve you than anybody else
in the muddle.
But remember that we are in no way
apologizing for anything we have said in
regard tothe matter, for we made no
charge against vou whatever, hut only
stated what we were told and neither said
nor intimated that you are guilty of the
charge that others made. Therefore you
should not make a spectacle of yourself
again as you did in this week’s Register.
and blow about how you floored another
victim, ete, when in fact you came near-
er flooring yourself than anybody else.
But what's the use to talk, for you say
you are satisfied. Your rot is too wide
of the mark to pay any attention to, any-
way. “Nuf ced” about this. and as no
one seems to be very much hurt, all we
have 10 say is this: Whenever you come
up this way: drop in to see us, put your
No. 14 feet on our office desk, swap varns
with us, be sociable and rest assured that
you are a welcome guest.
SOME PRAUTIVCAL CHRISTIANITY.
A little practical Christianity was in-
dulged in by a good many of our people,
yesterday. Tt came about in this way:
Archie Hamilton, who has long been a
citizen of this town, moved to West Sal-
isbury, and being a very poor man, he
moved his household goods himself, as
best he could, carryiog some of them and
wheeling some through the deep snow on
a wheelbarrow.
and made many trips through the snow,
but the people who are more favorably
situated in life than Archie could see
nothing in his hard lot other than some-
thing to laugh about. At last, however,
a pitying eye fell upon: him, and Sam
He worked hard all day |
‘ought to be raised to make Archie Som:
fortable by buying him a pair of good
‘boots. And the way the money was
banded out by the big-hearted fellows
who work in the woods beat a church
collection all hollow. It wasonly a short
time until money enough was raised fo ye
buy not only a pair of good new boots,
but numerous other articles of wearing
apparel as well. Archie was soon togged
up from head to foot, anda mote grate:
ful man you never saw.
Now there is food for reflecting in all
this, for when some poor fellow mortal
is in need, who are the first and most
willing men to help him? The laboring :
men, every time—men who can {ll afford
to part with their earnings.
In these days there are two distinet
kinds of Christianity, the professional
and the practical. The former is fo
policy, the latter for the good of m
kind. We will leave our readers to judge
which is the more, acceptable in the’ eyes
of a merciful God. :
We hate to say it, but it is a laments le
fact, all the same, that thereare too ma
people in the churches who live eomfor
ably and know no want who are entirely
devoid of practical Christianity, w
they go to church regularly, offer up los
prayers and. are literally loaded dow
with the professional article. Ani
of practical Cliristianity is worth
than a thousand yards of a long praye:
unless the prayer is backed up by
works.
Now we don’t mean to say that ther
are no goof people in the churches,
there are meuuy good peuple and pract
Christisns in all denominations. Bu
what we want to get at is that prayer
alone will admit no one into the
dom. Good works is what counts;
when it comes to going to Heaven, th
fellows who wear long stockings and rul
ber shoes and work in the woods -b
“in it.” Bo will sll other peoplt who ar

seen, wasstanding before them, compuct-

through which a real chimney arose in :
an old-fashioned and natural manner.
The sides of the house were covered with
a beautiful shade of pink cambric, while
the windows were painted to represent
light blue blinds behind them. Altogeth-
er, with the tasty Spruce trimming, made
a pretty effect. To the great delight of
the children, Santa Claus himself made
his appearance, up, instead of down, the
chimney. After many a witty remark
and good-humored advice, Santa hande :
‘down the bricks to the children. These
bricks were filled with candy. = After they
had all been distributed other presents
