T|LDEN'S SH|NPLASTERS,
"a Good Enough Morgan
Until After the Election"
The Dirty Falsehood Expos
ed with Emphasis.

The Cleveland Leader, an unscupulous
sheet, having revived the SANDER which
has more than once been exploded, that
Gov. TILpEN issued large amount Of
Shinplsster currency to circulate in the
iron regions Michigan, running through
q series Of years, and in contravenition OF
law, the Piaindealer obtained an inter-
view with the Hon. PETER WHITE, q
gentleman who has resided in Marquette
for twenty-seven years and has had the
most intimate relations with Gov. TIL
DEN. Mr.. WHITE gave the most posi-
tive proof that Gov. TILpxN's connec-
ton with the issue of the drafts were on
~ TO meet an emergency of the times,
when currency could not be paid. But
these same drafts we're all paid their face
value, before the date they were due, and
by the Governors express orders no de-
duction was made for interest. Mr..
WHITE says, ~ have always found Gov.
TIIDEN most upright business man, full
of integrity, and most prompt and re'is-
Bile in all his business transactions. And
this is the reputation that he bears by all
who know him at Lake Superior" What
are people to think when the editor of
the leading Republican paper OF the
Northwest (tbe Chicago Ttbuas6 when
convinced of the fslsity Of his statements,
replies that TILpEN is q "hsrd man to
beat, but this is good enough Morgan
until after election"
Tho interview Of the Piaindeaier re.
porter with Mr.WHIrE is quite lengthy,
but we make extracts upon few OF the
principle points:
Reporter Please to tell me the amount
of tax due To the government upon this
so-cslled currency.
Mr.. W.-$450 was the whole amount
of taxes ever claimed BY the government
which was Immediately paid.
SRep.-When the books OF the company
was seized, what amount Of currency did
those books show had been issued?
Mr.. W.-The books were never seized;
moreover, no one ever asked 10 look at

Stick TO Your Bush.

A rich man, in answer to the question how
he became so successful, recited the follow
ing story:
! will tell you how twas. One day when
| was lad, party Of boys and girls were
going TO pick blackberries wanted to 90
with them, but was afraid father would not
let me. When | told him what was going on,
he at once gave me permission to go with
them, and could hardly contain myself.
rushed into the kitchen, got big basket,
and asked mother for a luncheon. | had
the basket on my arm, and was just going
out at the gate, when my father called me
back. lie took my hand, and said in a very
gentle voice:
"Joseph, what are you trying to do O.
TO pick berries" | replied.
"Then Joseph, want to tell you one
thing. 1t is this when you find pretty
good bush, do not leave it TO seek better
one. The other boys and girls will run
about, picking little here and a little there
wasting good deal of time and getting but
few blackberries."
| went and had a capital time. But it
was just as my father said. No sooner had
one found good bush than he called all the
rest, and they left their several places, and
all ran eagerly off to their newly-found
treasure. Not content more than a minute
or two in place, they rambled over the
whole pasture, got very tired, and at night
had very few berries. My fathers words
kept running in my ears, and "stuck to
my bush" When | had done with one
found another, and finished that then
took another. When night came | had a
basket full of berries, more than all the others
put together, and was not half so tired as
they were. went home happy. But when
| entered found my father had been taken
i'll. lie looked at my basketful of ripe black
berries and said
Well done, Joseph. Was | not right
when | told you to always stick to your
bush 2"
lie died few days after and | had to
make my way in the world as best could.
But my fathers words sank deep into my
mind, and | never forgot this experience Of
that blackberry party. stuck to my
bush"
When had a fair place and was doing
tolerably well, did not leave it and spend
weeks and months seeking one | thought
might be little better. When other Young
men said "Come with us, and we will make
fortune in few weeks" shook my head,
and stuck to my bush"
Presently my employers offered to take me
into business with them. | stayed with the
old house until the principals died and then
| had everything | wanted. The habit of
sticking to my business led people to trust
me, and gave me character. | owe all
have and am to this motto Stick to your
bush - Examiner and Chronicle.

I" Making q Fuss.o


Our recent address upon Agricultural Ed
ucation, at the Board of Agriculture's meet
ings in lrasburgh and Franklin (Which was
printed in the Orleans County Montor), has
brought us quite number Of letters, mostly
OF complimentary nature, and all written
in friendly spirit, for which we heartily
thank the writers. One of them, a reader Of
the WArcHMAs, asks why we did not have
1t printed in this paper. In reply, we can
only say that as We have embodied the same
thoughts in various articles printed in these
columns, from time to time, We did not think
1t useful to reiterate them again so soon, at
the sacrifice of space that might be made
more interesting TO many Of our readers.
Another, who seems 10 have been very much
pleased at the advice we gave the farmers to
"make fuss and keep making fuss "
about our educational system, until we got a
better one, sends us the following anecdote
from Western paper, as illustrative of the
Vermont watchman and State journal. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1836-1883, 1876-03-08

low, and refer him also 10 an instance in the
New Testament, where the Saviour Himself
gives an illustration Of the power Of i'm
portunity
Six or seven days ago, an old man entered the
store Of Detroit hardware man, who also deals
in seeds, and, inquiring for the proprietor, soon
stood face TO face with him.
"want to sec me p asked the dealer.
Yes, sir; | dol Seven years ago this coming
spring bought paper Of seeds Of you''

"rll swear to it, sir Seven years ago, sir, and
not one OF those seeds came up"
well, that's funny" laughed the dealer
"You may think II was, said the old man,
"but I'll make It cost you ten thousand dollars.
When you sold me those seeds, sir, you did not
know that you were dealing with lionv'
owen, you stop your blowing and get out Of
here"
"Giye me n package Of cabbage seeds, sir!''
81 WON'T"
The old man went away, but in an hour re-
turned, and said, in loud voice;
"Seven years ago this coming spring bought a
package Of seeds at this store. Not one Of those
seeds arose from the silel''
lie was ordered out, and went out. lie was
there the next morning as soon as the proprietor
was, and he said
Seven years ago this coming spring you sold
me package Of seeds, Not one single seed ma
tured TO manhood
lie was put out that time, bu, he returned In the
afternoon when the store was full Of customers,
and exclaimed
Seven years ago this coming spring ! was

When he went out, something hit him three or
four times In the back lie went down the street
for awhile and then returned, and stood in front
OF the store, and said to the people who passed:
"seven years ago this coming spring this store
here sold me garden seeds that never sproutedl'
He repeated the words over and over until a
crowd began to gather, when he was called In and
given dozen papers OF seed and told to forgive
and forget.

They were given him, and when slowed away,
he remarked Six papers Of cucumber seed, tc

A Suggestive Complaint.

The Massachusetts Agricultural College,
the following complaint and protest;
Eight years is brief period In the life OF an
institution, and especially Of one which, from It's
novel and peculiar character has been forced 10
struggle for its very existence against the preju-
dices OF the ignorant and the jealousy Of the edu-
Gated among its opponents, and has often in times
OF need found its nominal friends greatly lacking
in hopefulness courage and enthusiasm. Another
practical difficulty in the way Of the rapid deyel-
opment Of such u college lies in the impossibility
Of educating the people to correct apprehension
OF the real objects and methods Of the OF in
struction, 30 long as the newspapers continually
scatter broadcast dspdrdging and false statements
concerning H.
Here is an agricultural college, that seems
to be honestly trying to do its duty under
the law OF its establishment, complaining of
the jealousy Of the educated" and that
the newspapers continually scatter broad
cast disparaging and false statements CON
cerning it," The Massachusetts college has
a large and well-managed farm, and among
its faculty are professors Of agriculture, hor-
ticulture and veterinary medicine and sur
gerry. And yet it has to encounter the jsal.
ousy Of the educated, aud the hostility of
the press On the other hand, in states
where institutions endowed by the same
grant have no farm, and no teachers in
any branch directly relating to agriculture,
the newspapers are ever ready in their de-
fence, the only complaints originate among
the illiterate farmers and the" educated do
not seem to be distressed at all by jealousy"
Why is il so 7 Can il be that the jeal.
ousy Of the educated class, and the hostility
OF the political press, are only directed
against such institutions when they really
furnish chance for the diffusion of knowl-
edge among the working people

The children screamed to hear IL, and
grandpa, smiling, said it was pretty good.
At which Jimmie looked very proud
" Now Willie" said grandpa, " It is your
turn"
Willie took some time TO think of what he
should say, and then he broke out
There was bad boy named Jink
who drank hi. Eandpapa', nl
Just swallow aqul,
Aud then can write ihink'"
The children thought this was very funny I;
but Willie was particular 10 tell them that it
was not true, but was only rhyme, at which
his grandpa laughed. Then grandpa called
upon Alice, who hesitated good deal but
after looking into the fire quite awhile, she
spoke
- caught little nsh,
And Put HIN 20 a gish,
But fuss came In the door
xn S cPi q he dS ~ s he TOOK him"
Grandpa said he thought that was very
fine, and all the children praised it but Alice
sat sobcry looking at the fire.
"That isn't true either" said she. " But
IL might have been so couldn'tit grandpa ?"
Yes, my dear" replied he. "And very
few rhymers come so near the truth as that.
Now, Mary, it is your turn"
She was funny little thing, and full of
all sorts of queer fancies but she hcsitated.
At last her eyes briehteaed up, laugh
spread all over her face, and she said
Little Jimmie Brown.
Without cent in his pocket
'Gansi a tree that was froze.
And fearfully did knock H."
Was it the nose or the tree that was
knocked 2" asked Jimmie.
~ guess it was both" said she, laughing.
" But it hurt Jimmie Brown the worst,
guess or would, if it was true"
q" Now, Willie" said grandpa, cant you
say something about your little sister Ma
rian, who is too young to rhyme but not too
young to be rhymed about %
I" she was named after her two grandmoth-
ers," said Willie, "Mary aud Ann and so
they called her Mariana sort of grand
mothers mixed you know"
"Well, Willie" said grandpa, "try what
you can do"
After little thinking about it, Willie said
Marian NY baby one,
You cannot nnd beneath The sun
sweeter one, you bet"
They all praised Willie but Alice, who
looked as ii she were about questioning the
truth of the rhyme.
Wei, Alice" said grandpa, " out with
it. Don't you like Willie's rhyme ?"
Yes" replied Alice, the rhyme is good
But his pet isn't so sweet as my little baby
brother, Summer"
Oh, no That's the matter, is it ? Wel
your brother may be full as sweet for boy,
you know"
This cheered the little girl up and grandpa
