a political organization of such res
pectable antecedents as the federal
party was utterly destroyed by the
suspicion that in the hour of war its
sympathies were not actively on the
side of the country. How much more
deserving of reprOach and cOndemna-
tiOn is the Democratic party, which
thrO' its Southern wing, actually made
war upon the Government, while the
Northern wing was divided between
active sympathy with the rebels and
tardy support of the National luthOr-
tiles. It is not wise, L know, t. keep
alive animOsities or infame resent
ments, and do not recall these pain
ful facts with any such desire, or any
such purpose. But am persuaded
that great evils would result to this
country by restoring to power the
men who attempted to destroy il, and
/ believe it is an imperative and pa
triotie duty to keep the people arOus-
ed to the necessity of aveTting even
the possibility of such a disaster

NeKspapers for children.

The following gives a good hint to
parents about very important mat
ter:
"a child beginning to read becomes
delighted with newspapers because he
reads names which are very familiar,
and he will progress accordingly. A
newspaper one yOAF is worth a quar-
ters schooling 70 child, and every
father must consider that substantial
information is connected with this
advancement. The mother of the
family being one of the heads, and
having q more immediate charge of
the children, should herself be in
stTucted. A mind occupied becomes
fortified against the ills of life, and is
braeed for any emergency. Children
mused by reading or study are of
course more considerate and more
easily governed How many thought
less young men have spent their earn
ings in q tavern or grOg shop, who
ought TO have been reading! How
many parents who never spent twen-
ty dollars for books for their families
would gladly have given thousands to
reclaim a son or daughter who had ig-
nOrantly and thoughtlessly fallen in
to temptation.

The yearly meeting Of the Friends
i'm Iowa was held n few days ago at
OskalOosa. There are ten "qUarters"
in the State, all of which had dele
gates present. The reports show a
total of 1925 Friends in the State.
About 160 persons were received into
membership the past year. But two
quarters reported instances Of swear
ing; one quarter, members engaged
in batteries; one quarter, ga few not
quite clear of the Unnecessary use of
Intoxicating liquors, and aiding the
manufacture thereof" and in all the
quarters there is but "One case Of traf-
fie in intoxicating liquors as a beve-
rage" But in every quarter there are
from fifty to one hundred Friends who
use tobacco, a total of 704 in the en-
tire State indulging in the weed.
About 3, 500 was raised last year for
denominational purposes, and it is
proposed to increase the amount to
s, 800 this year.

The MaIne Eleefion

The complete official returns from
Maine, show a Republican majority
for Governor Of 1916. On the Con-
gressiOnal ticket the Republican ma
jOrity is larger, reaching probably 20
about 1000. All the Congressman
are Republican, with heavy Repub-
liean majOrities in both branches OF
the Legislature. This Is doing splen-
didly. The Republican majority last
year was 6,98l. This victory is a
glorious index Of the magnificent tTi-
umphs which await us this fall in
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, New

ssWhat / know about farming,

"What / know about farming, "
is pretty we'll illustrated by the fol-
lowing article, giving an insight in
Horace Greeley's success in practical
farming. 1t well shows that while a
man who has devoted his entire life
TO journalism may write well on agri-
culture theoretically, he had better
leave the practical part to men who
have made it the business Of their
lives.
Horace Greeley's knowledge OF
farming did not prevent him from
getting badly bit down in the Nutmeg
State. He bought farm down in
Hampden, paid five thousand dollars
for it, cultivated il at great expense
for several seasons, and sold it the
other day for three thousand five hun
dred dollars.

Trials.

We never get rain but from the
clouds, and though this may some
times fall when the sun shines, yet
never in sufficient quantities to make
the earth fruitful. Showers, which
are most beneficial, always come when
the sun is hidden from view in the
clouds. The storms of life are the in
struments God uses 70 bless man, and
make the Christian fruitful Of good
works. Earthly trials, like earthly
storms, always bring gloom, and If
rightly improved invariably bring
blessings to man.

From each one of the one hundred

frequent and urgent and most well

What One woman is Doing.

The question as to what women car
do is best answered by showing what
they have done. Dubuque, Iowa, j:
an eHteFprisilg city Of $4,000 inhabi
tants, with perhaps o larger proper
tiOn Of intelligent and thoughtful peO
pie than most western cities. Some
years ago a library was started in {
lawyers Office in this town. 1t was
small affair, not much used, anC
of no gTeat account any way. But il
met a want, found friends, and grew
Presently it was put into 9 couple Oh
large, quiet rooms, and placed in
charge of Miss Martha ChaddOck, a
young woman of singular taOt, intel
ligenee aud energy, who deVOtes her
self to Its interests, and with Femarka-
BILE success. 1t now numbers about
S, 900 volumes of well selected books,
has some thirty or forty magazines
on its reading table, and few of the
best papers on it's rack. 1t is the popu-
lar institution of the city, is visited
by hundreds every week, is the rem
devious of the most intelligent and
cultivated people In the afternoon,
and its reading-rOOm is constantly
occupied by readers of both sexes and
all ages. There may be seen dozen
boys and girls quietly reading side by
side, and generally hooks selected by
the discriminating librarian. 4 boy
brings in q book for exchange, and
Miss ChaddOck is overheard saying :
You have read fiction enough for
the present, johns here is a book
about birds, that will interest you, and
/ want you to take this this time. &"
1t is impossible for John to say "nO"
TO anything that sweet, kind, moth
erly woman asks; and he deVOurs the
birds, feathers and all. Young ladies
are constantly invited to read the best
books, and to talk about their con
tents, until they are rather ashamed
to take even the best novels all the
time. Professional men go to the IL
brarian for the facts that bear directly
on the case they have in hand; and
she refers them to the volume, if not
to the chapter and page, where they
may find what they want. And so,
in the quietest manner, without q
particle of noise or ostentatiOn, this
young woman Is using these volumes
as a means of culture, refinement, and
virtue, and making what IS generally
allowed to be a mere pool of stagnant
literary entertainment a fountain
spring of the best intellectual and
moral influence. And this library
has been made what it is through the
tact and energy of its keeper. 1t is
q great thing for a woman to order
her home and train her children well,
and help her husband in heart and
life; but it is a nobler thing for a wO-
man who has neither home, nor chill
dren, nor husband, to turn away from
the glitter and destinations of fash
ionable society, and devote herself to
a worthy object, and so live herself
into the hearts and lives of hundreds.
Aud among the things that an intel
ligent and accomplished woman can
do better than most men is the taking
charge of library. Exchange.

REDUCTION OF TAXATION.

While maintaining the integrity OF
the national debt against all forms OF
repudiatiOn and all classes of repudia-
ton, the Republican party do not be-
lieve in keeping up a high rate OF
taxation for the purpose of paying II
off with undue rapidity. The rate at
which the debt has been paid since the
Inauguration of PRESIDENT Grant, would
leave none of the burden upon the
next generation. Aside from the in
Justice of laying the whole pecuniary
cost of maintaining the Union upon
the generation that was called upon
to make the exclusive sacrifice Of blood
and life, it would be a misfortune if
the succeeding generations should not
be reminded in some palpable form of
the price of liberty and of Union. Had
the Internal Revenue laws, as they
existed at the close of the war, re-
mained in force until the present time,
there can be little doubt that the ag-
gregate annual product would have
exceeded five hundred millions, and
this in addition to the two hundred
millions in gold derived from the duty
on imports. At this rate the entire
debt would have been extinguished
during the Presidency of Gen. Grant.
/ But in the judgment of the Republi-
can party this would have been liz
tolerably oppressive to the present
generation, and hence at every ses-
sion of Congress since the suppression
of the rebellion, taxation has been re-
duced by the tens Of millions. At the
session Just closed eighty millions Of
taxes were remOved-twenty millions
from the tariff on imports, and sixty
millions of internal taxes. The duties
on tea, coffee and sugar have been
largely reduced, the free list greatly
extended, and the internal taxes
bswept away so clean that of thesenor-
nous list imposed by the necessities
of the war only the following remain
Tax on spiritous, yinous and malt
| liquors.
Tax on tobacco and cigars.
Tax on incomes.
