Initiation, Ms il is now preached ly the
modern Democracy, is fifty lustrated by
the able Grosvenor, OF Missouri, whose
able speech is only answered by the oppo-
sition by filthy abuse. He says:
The lender laughs as he forecloses his
mortgages, and trusts that our great Amer
lean fnanciers, the invaluable friends of
the poor man, may give us one more trial
of cheap money. He likes to lend in tius h
times, with gold at $50, and to call in his
loans in hard times, with guld ut 40. He
prays for more money and another fool 3
paradise. Yes, let US vote down specie
payments, as England did in 1911. Nio-
lent changes followed; paper rose and fell
20 per cent, and that land is not yet free
from the terrible concentration and tyran-
ny of wealth then produced. Eight years

nese did more than a thousand years ago.
Let us try more money, ms our fathers did,
In 1850 the thrifty barber of Philade phil

A Kentucky Bridal Tour.

There came one day to little inland
town in Kentucky, "A young rural couple
who had lust been bound by the "silken
bonds" Their destination was the depot,
and the bridegroom was evidently quite
impatient for fear the train should arrive
before he could reach the Office Buying
one ticket, they stood on the platform until
the train had stopped.
When they entered the car the bride
groom found his bride seat, kissed her
most atfeclionately, babe her goodbye"
and going out, seated himself on n box and
lwhittling most vigorously, He
watched the train out Of sight, regret de-
picted on his face, when a oystader,
thinking the whole proceeding rather
strange, resolved 10 interview him. APP
preaching him Carelessly, and chewing q
straw to Keep up his courage, he said:
Been gettin married latelyy'
Yes said he. me and Sallie col

"Yes," with a sigh.

Castor Oil.
From the Detroit Free Press. !


She had had her mind made up for two or
three days that the boy needed some castor
oil, but she knew that she must approach
him gently. She placed the bottle where he
could see it, and when he turned up his nose
she said

He seemed to doubt her word, and she
continued
"Ifyou'n take some / Il let you go to the
circus"

Florida Oranges.

In various parts of Florida, south of lat.
800, especially along the st. Johns and In
dian Rivers, there are immense groves Of
wild oranges Bartram, in his Travels"
mentions having seen in 1863, near Mos
quito Inlet, ridge about half mile wide
and forty miles long, which was one dense
orange-gruve, interpreted with magnolias
and few other trees. So thoroughly es-
tabished is the tree, and so generally is it
distributed, that many have supposed it to
be Indigenous but bOtanists who have in
vestigaGcd the matter regard it as an in
stance of remarkable naturalization, and the
trees as having descended from those which
are known to have been introduced by the
early Spanish colonists. This wild orange
is bitter, often called in Florida the bitter
sweet, and 50 exceedingly fruitful that a
tree in full bearing is an object of great
beauty the wild orange furnishes stocks
on which to bud other varieties, and the
fruit is used to make marmalade. In
Florida there are three methods of estab-
fishing an orange-grove; to clear up wild
grove, removing all trees not needed, and
budding with sweet fruit those that remain
to take up young wild trees and set them
in prepared ground, and there bud them
and to raise stocks from seed, bud them in
nursery rows, and when of sufficient size
set them in the plantation, as is practised
with other fruit. Each method has its adj
vocates, but it is probable that the las
named, though apparently slower, give
ultimately better neutrality-suspicious.

And fulfill each great design.

The general market remains very quiet

any magnitude even in leading articles, but
the ieelingin business circles begin to man

Careless farmers continue TO bring in wet
and filthy wheat, and of course are forced
to sell at ruinous prices We know of such

THE SONG OF STEAM.

The following fine poem, which Black
goods Magazine has pronounced to be the
best lyric of the century, is by George w.
Cutter, Of CoviI gton, kentucky
Harness me down with your iron bands,
BE sure of your curb and rein,
For | scorn the power of your puny hands
AS q tempest scorns chain.
How / laughed rs | lay concealed from
sight
For many countless hour,
At the childish boasts of human might,
And the pride OF human power
When | saw an army upon the land,
A navy upon the seas,
Creeping along, n snail-like band,
Or watinga Maynard breeze:
When saw the peasant reel
With the toll that he family bore,
As he turned at the tardy wheel,
Or toiled at the weary oar
When measured the painting courser's
speed,
The fight of the carrier-dove,
As they bore a law the king decreed,
Or the lines Of impatient love,
l could but think how the world would feel
AS these were outstripped affair,
When should be bound to the rushing
keel,

A d. 1911

The income tax of A. II. Stewart, dur
ing the eight years that tax was in
force, was something over $4,000;
and his individual taxes for the four
years ending with 1874 his personal
taxes amounted to $SS9, 229.S0. Aud
sam. Cary habitually singles out poor
man with large families, in his Ohio
audiences, aud tells them they pay
more taxes than Mr.. Stawart does
This is the sort of vulgar and menda-
cious lying resorted to by "A candidate
for Lieutenant Governor of the third
State in the Union. And these are the
fellows who affect to believe that the
Republicans have been worsted on,
and are anxious to be rid of, the finan-
cial, and tax, and kindred issues, in
the Ohio campaign
Commenting on Cary's performances
in the line we have alluded to, the Gin
cinnatti Commercial says:
Ii is plainly true that the assertion
that General Cary, has made that Mr..
Stewart does not pay dollar of gov~
eminent tax, is IA vulgar Justification
made up in the course of a deliberate
effort to arouse the prejudices of the ig-
nOrant, and inflame the passions of the
LnOuR llieSS anu the VICIOUS, III may
not be inapt to say in this connection
that the foundation of Mr.. stewards

how humble or ill-informed pur-
chaser may be, there is no deception
