pure to live longer in this uncon-
genial poIiticsl atmosphere, and seek
ing retreat where, undisturbed they
may by their examples OF honesty
and righteousness lead the country
in paths Of pIeasantness and peace.
And with this declaration we see
them straightway fastening toward
some convenient cheese TO preach
from.
Look at these reformers. See how
many OF them have been weighed in
the Republican balances and found
wanting; how many Of them wear
the word sex" prefxed to titles con-
ferred upon them by the Republican
party; read the disastrous history Of
the numerous new parties organized
by unfaithful politicians, and 1t is
easy 10 conjecture what are the aims
and aspirations Of this latest muffin
ominaI reform party. 1t is only
necessary to breathe the atmosphere
in which these reformers live and
move and have their being, i'm order
to detect the aroma Of the distant

A Democratic correspondent Of the
st. Louis Republican who has been
travelling through Iowa has this to
say of the people ard the party In
this State: "The strongest ilIustra-
tion that | can think of to set forth
the sonndness of the popular mind
i'm Iowa is the fact that the Republi-
can party even with majority of
sixty thousand to harden its cheek
has not been able to debauch its adj
ministration nor deaden the con-
science OF its people. There have
been indeed, steals. Thatthere have
been as not wonderful. But that in
all these years OF unchecked and ex-
ultant Republican supremacy the
steals should be so pitiably small
and few is phenomenon that can be
explained only upon the theory just
advanced. There Is not much dam
ger of great political or social cor
ruption or decentralization among a
people who live in white frame cot
tages with green blinds, with maple
trees and rose bushes in the front
yards, and with back gardens full of
cherries and singing BIRDS"

A Plea for the Boys.


A boy from town bounded into
the office yesterday with bright,
sparkling eye, and joyous look
and saucy expression on his face,
and much as he needed spanking,
there was a great deal to admire in
the robust fellow, and his independ-
ence was so much in keeping with
the Den,ocraethat the fellow feeling
made US "wondrous kind" TO each
other.
1t was not long after that boy
from the country came in. He was
a good boy, as the word goes; he had
a patient, weary, and exhausted APP
pearance, suggestive Of long wrestles
with the pillow, the hoe, and other
agricultural implements. His form
was already bent, and his limbs
moved in constrained, stiff sort Of
a way as If the bearer Of them were
suffering with rheumatism.
There is moral to all this, and
we want TO apply it:
The country boys are worked too
hard. Now we don't want the an
cry parent to get up on his hind legs
and say that we encourage idleness,
for we do not. But we still insist
that the country boy works too
much. You must remember that
his bones are soft; he requires
great deal Of sleep and considerable
play his young heart does not yearn
after gold galore and pigs and cattle,
but more after bats and balls and
marbles. Let him grow up then,
and give his bones time to grow, his
chest to expand, his muscles to de-
velop. Heaven knows he will have
a hard enough time when he gets to
mans estate, and why not let him
hunt and fish little more, and give
your hired man few more days O!
Let your son grow up
to be full developed strong man,
educated not only in books, but in
and he can take better care
Of you when you are old.
Town boys are better able to stand
privation than the boys from the
and the reason Is that they
are not geaerally compelled to use all
their groWing force in doing labor.
They have more liberty, land though
they are perhaps wilder fellows, yet
they are healthier.
During the war we noticed these
peculiarities. Where the country
boy would wither and pine under
the privations, the boys from the
town--the clerks, the light opera
tives-even the idler, would fatten
and wallow in the splendor of
health.
There is lesson to be learned in
these observations, and farmers
should at least be as careful of their
own progeny as Of their fiocks and
herds. Take care of the boys and in
your old age they can take care Of
you.- Ott,tnicd Democrat.
