AND WOODLESFORD, OULTON, CARLTON, AND LOFTHOUSE CHRONICLE.
THE ROTHWELL TIMES
SATURDAY, NOV. 1, 1873.
OUR OPENING ADDRESS.
The starting of a weekly newspaper in Rothwell serves to indicate the great advance the town has made, and its onward progressive spirit. Only a few years ago the demand for literature was so small, that neither printing-office nor bookseller’s shop could be found. Within the last six years a marked change has taken place, and, as a consequence, we abound in resources for supplying the new literary spirit.
The time seems to have arrived when the general thirst for knowledge, and the laudable desire of acquaintance with what is doing in the busy world around, should be met by a local newspaper, and the facilities at hand for supplying such paper, at a cheap rate, has induced the proprietor of the Rothwell Times to supply this want. From the arrangements he has made, he trusts that he shall be able to compete with journals of a larger size and more expensive character, in supplying articles of latest intelligence, news of general interest in both town and country, and the state of the markets and the funds. He has also made special provision for recording in his columns everything of local interest, including Public and Local Board Meetings, &c., Railway Time Table, Police News, Mining Intelligence, and all other items likely to please and inform the various classes of readers.
In addition to these many attractions, arrangements have been made for the supply of a thrilling copyright tale entitled
“THE SECRET MARRIAGE.”
The columns of the Rothwell Times will be open to communications of private correspondents on any subject bearing on the interests of the neighborhood. Secretaries of friendly and other societies are assured that reports respecting the societies they represent will be carefully attended to and as fully as possible inserted. Those who wish to express their opinions on passing events will have full liberty to do so, so long as they write in a spirit of fairness and honesty; and contributions of a literary character will be thankfully received; and it is hoped by all these varied means to make the journal not only popular, but essentially useful.
That a paper at so cheap a rate, in a small district, should be made to pay even its expenses, will require a large circulation; the proprietor, therefore, respectfully and earnestly solicits the co-operation of all parties to gain for it a standing which shall insure its continuance; and when circumstances justify it, he pledges himself to enlarge its size, and increase its columns.
To the tradesmen of the towns in which it may circulate, who may make use of its pages as a medium of advertising, the Rothwell Times cannot but be of great service, since it is a generally admitted fact, that no means of increasing a business, or the sale of any specific article, can be employed so efficient at the columns of a newspaper.
It may be asked, whether the Rothwell Times will advocate any specific party, political, or ecclesiastical sentiments; the answer is, none whatever; all parties will be fairly represented, whatever their political views or their ecclesiastical convictions. In a journal circulating through a locality of so limited a character, where parties are so equally balanced, it is obvious that no peculiar sentiments can be prominently and exclusively upheld with any hope of success. The proprietor pledges himself to give no offence to any, but remain neutral on these points on which his readers may differ, and by a candid, impartial, liberal spirit, to gain the favour of all. With these preliminary statements, and specification of objects, he sends forth his first number, and trusts he may, from time to time, be enabledto report progress, and ere long to tell his readers that the Rothwell Times has a prosperous career among the journals of the day.

Page, preached two Sermons in the Wesleyan Chapel, Woodlesford. Collections were made during the service in aid of the Chapel fund. On the Wednesday following, a public Tea was provided in the school-room, after which, a public Meeting took place in the Chapel, Mr. Batty, of Rothwell, presiding. After singing and prayer, a vote of thanks was passed to the ladies for their kindness in providing at the tea. The Chairman then spoke of the necessity of improving the comfort and appearance of the Chapel, and urging the Woodlesford people to make an effort in that direction. The Rev. J. Rhodes, eulogized the tea, and only wished the Chapel was beautiful accordingly. If they were not going to have a new Chapel, he would turn the old one in side out, and make a beautiful little place of it. He only wished some one would give us a new site, then how soon we should have a chapel suitable for a village like Woodlesford. He deprecated the idea of some christians who were wishing and asking for uninformity. Unity was the thing needed. The Rev. I. E. Page, likened the christian life to a fruitful vine bringing forth grapes without the slightest exertion; and so the man who brought forth the fruits of good living, naturally and without effort, was the highest type of christian. He spoke strong- ly but friendly on the duty of speaking for Jesus, showing how a word fitly spoken has been the means of much good. A collection was then made in aid of the chapel fund, and after a vote of thanks to the chairman, the benediction was pronounced. CONCERT AT METHLEY. On Monday night, a concert was given at the Methley Library and Reading room, to a very large audience, by a party of vocalists from Leeds. The Hon. and Rev. P. Y. Savile presided, and amongst the speakers were the Rev. J. Armitage (Whitwood,) Messrs.Thos. Embleton, T W. Embleton, and Bnoch Kaye, secretary. The part singing went off in admirable style. Mr. Thos. Lawton gave The happy Muleteer" in a very effective manner, and was encored. Master Willie Waring sang the difficult song by Smart, "The birds are telling one another," and was well received. He also sang the Sol-Fa Duet with Mr. Lawton, which was loudly applauded. Mr. Hartley Thompson (who was in good voice) gave My sweetheart when a boy" in excellent style, and in responce to a hearty encore gave" Barbara Allen." Mr. Walter Woodcock presided with ability at the piano- forte, and also played Mendelssohn's Leider Op. 19 with great taste. A vote of thanks to the chairman brought a very pleasant even- ing's entertainment to a close. "THE ROTHWELL TIMES." To the Editor of the Rothwell Times) DEAR SIR,-I was exceedingly glad when I had your hand-bill-placed in my hand last week, informing me that we were to have a Weekly Paper printed in our midst, contain- ing our local news, for I am sure our district is neglected by our Leeds contemporary, for if we have a social, political, or any kind of meeting and we are absent by business or sickness we hear no more of it, whereas, if we subscribe to our own paper, we shall have an opportunity of seeing a truthful record of what takes place in the locality. I was struck by the compreheniveness of your subjects. and 1 feel sure if you deal with the matters in a truithful, friendly, and independent spirit, you will fill a long felt want, and I have every reason to believe you will. Weshall expect to see our Sanitary and Highway movements inspected, for I feel sure they stand in need of it. I hope to hear of the Rothwell Times having a very extensive circulation, for I am sure the progress of the district deserves special attention, and the responsibility you take upon yourself deserves commendation and every success that can be wished. I must now congratulate you on your speculation, for it is a great one when one takes into consideration the, enomous cost of printing machinery, and the high price of every material you will require. I once more wish the Rothwell Times. Yours, &c., every success, and remain Oct. 27th, 1873. AN OBSERVER. MINERS' ANNIVERSARY (To the Editor of the Rothwell Times.) SI,-I desire, with your permission, to speak to the Miners of the Rothwell Lodge through your issue of November 1st. The Miners of this locality received great praise for their sobriety and general good conduct at their recent demonstration, and I hope that the coming anniversary will be characterized by those essential elements of success, thus giving the public to under- stand that we are not the "drunken, disso- lute, uncivilized class" that we are so com- monly represented to be. It hath also been hinted that we shall not be content with one day's play, therefore let us have no pits stand- ing idle on Thursday next, but one and all, abe at our post, and thus by sobriety and at- tention to duty, show to the libellers of our class that we respect ourselves and our em- fployers. W. D. A HINT TO THE MINERS. (To the Editor of the Rothwell Times.) SIR,-Will you permit me through your paper to say a word to the Miners of Roth- well Haigh, in regard to the Meeting that is to take place on November 5th. I suppose they are to go to the Primitive Methodist Chapel. Well, there will be some go, and some will not. I think they ought to select some place in the route to make the collection towards the new school, and then it would give those a chance to pay who never went near a place of worship. Yours truly, M. W.
