give more rapid effect than ours to the
will Of the people, and it is evident
that he believes liberty, upon the
whole, to be surer Of steadily pro-
gressive development under the polit-
zeal forms of England. His offense,
therefore, is not that he prefers Amer
lean institutions to those of his own
country. but that he sees economical
and commercial reasons which will
enable America at some time to Wrest
the commercial primacy Of the world
from England.
MI. Gladstone's position is singular
and noble. Without Office or patron
age, he is the great leader of the best
opinion OF England, and he leads with
out the slightest tlattery of popular Ell
ror or pandering to popular prejudice.
His paper upon "England's Mission, %
and this Of "Kin beyond the Sea- are
so full of the suggestions of wise and
patriotic mind that they must neces-
sarily command the attention of Eng
lish intelligence, and WELD great in
fluence. Institutions that train such
a public character as his are not un-
! worthy even of our careful considera.
ton. How many Of our leaders, in
the same relative position to a great
party as he, would dare to speak OF
their country, it's mistakes and it's ten
denotes, as boldly and truthfully as he
has spoken OF his country in these al
ticles? Mr.. Gladstone is, as We might
say, the certain executive head Of his
party if it came into power, and if he
would accept the position. Now

Inc result has emphatically proved the
wealthy bankers sagacity. Besides
having much wider and more prom
lslng field to operate in, heis known to
nave been in several stock combina-
tlons that paid immense profits. By the
combination method of operating in

100000 can be used with great success
IN these pools. 1926 would pay 800

SOMERS.

The two snow storms of late have
extended over the entire western coun-
try at depth from one to two and
one-half feet. Being accompanied with
high winds, considerable portion of it
has found it's way into the highways,
which makes north anu south roads al
most impossible without the aid of the
shovel. Mercury falling as low as fif-
teen degrees below zero, making it the
seVeresl weather that has been known
fer a n lumber of years in this vicinity
at this time of year. Previous to the
last fall of snow the sleighing was ex.
cellent and universally enjoyed by all
And it seemed to add vitality to all
branches Of trade. The last storm and
cold weather and extremely low prices
offered for all kinds of farm produce,
has caused a great depression upon all
classes who are delinquent of funds
sufficient to meet the early wants of
the Tax Collector. And the want of
activity among buyers to purchase the
farm cereals, produces a gloom over
the entire community. And people
are at stand to know the wisest and
best course to pursue. However low
produce may be, farmers must forward
it, and receive prices that will warrant
in handling and forwarding to points
where it is most needed. The demand
for all articles of consumption being
limited, no great advance can be ex-
pected in prices at present. Being a
resident of the county for number of
years, [ have yet to witness a more Sc
rious depression of all classes of bust
ness then now presents itself before
the masses. Many are advocating bet
ter times and prices. That class of
advocators are of professional stripe
Their soft, delicate hands have never
been placed in the ranks, and on an
equal footing with the farmers, if so,
they would advance the same doctrine.
Hard times and low prices. Farm Ia
borers complain of extremely low
prices offered them for their service.
But prices offered for winter service
are more than will warrant in paying.
Therefore farmers must do without
help, depending upon their own labor
to carry them through.

Grove the past week, l found business

ENGLISH CRITICISM OF GLAGsTONE'S
" KIN BEYOND THE SEA" The offense
of Mr.. Gladstone is very simple. He
is abiding to what he calls the special
interest of England in this country,
and he says that he does not speak
"of the menace which, in the prospec-
tive development of her resources,
America offers to the commercial pre-
eminence Of England. On this sub
ject [ will only say that it is she alone
who, at a coming time, can, and proba-
bly, will, wrest from us that CONNER
cial primary. We have no title, I have
no inclination, to murmur at the pros
poets. 1t she acquires it, she will
make the acquisition by the right of
the strongest; but in this instance the
strongest means the best. She will
probably become what we are now
the head servant in the great house
hold of the world, the employer of all
employed, because her services will be

more title against her than Venice or
Genoa or Holland has had against us. -
These are not improbable conclusions.
No man Of the English race, of very
great sagacity and familiarity with
history and the springs and course of
civilization, can contemplate the char

Of this country without perceiying at
least the extreme probability of such
a result. The announcement OF the
probability could be regarded as dis
trust or betrayal of the students own
country only by smaller sagacity and
q pinchbeck patriotism.
The criticism upon Mr.. Gladstone is

MARVEL and Philip Sidney in mind,
Milton and Falkland, men who differ
but who are Of large souls and gener-
Gus hearts, and to such men he saws
plainly what he thinks, and thinks as
an Englishman and an honest man.
1t is evident that political England
and America represent, as he says, the
two greater branches of a race born
to command, and that, while interested
in the way in which we are working
out the common destiny, his sympa-

branch. Indeed, he points out the
ways in which English institutions
