Ninth, That a thousand dollars
kept in active circulation from
hand to hand-at home does more
t. make money plenty and our
people prosperous than millions
sent abroad, to purchase what we
can and ought to make at home;
and that the erection of furnaces
and factories in farming regions,
like an soil strike" often adds a
hundred fold to the value of farm
ing lands, as well as millions to
the general wealth, and thOus 'nds

Tenth, The great contest is
therefore between foreign ami
American farmers, mechanics, and

How Daniel Boone Died.

The Paris, Kentucky, Citizen
reproduces from the same paper
of September s, 1909, the follow
ing:
AS he lived, so he died-with
his gun in his hand. We are
informed by a gentleman direct
from Boone's, on the Missouri
coast, that early last month Colo
mel Daniel Boone went to the deer
lick and seated himself within a
blind raised to conceal him from
the game; that while sitting thus
concealed with his old trusty rifle
in his hand, pointed towards the
lick, the muzZle resting on a log,
his face to the breech of the gun,
his rife cooked, his finger on the
trigger, one eye shut, the other
looking along the barrel through
the sight-in this position, with
out a struggle or motion, and of
course without pain, he breathed
out his life so gently that when
he was found The next day by his
friends, although stiff and cold, he
looked Us if alive, with his gun in
hand, just in the act of firing. Il
is not altogether certain if buck
had come in range of his gun,
which had been the death of thou
sands, but it might intuitively
have followed its old employers
mind and discharged itself. The
hypothesis being novel We leave
its solution to the curious.
