Owing TO the early harvest, farmers will
have ample time to do their fall work and
prepare for winter. \ large crop of fodder
was well cured for stock. Corn was an
extra crop in many places. Wheat not
half crop. Potatoes and other roots are
not an average crop owing to the drouth.

Worldly Wisdom.

That the men Of this world are wise
In their generation is well demonstrated by
the adroitness with which lottery adver-
Using agent turns to good account one Of
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher's free tits in the
pulpit He says: "On Saturday, January
18th last, Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, in
Plymouth church, Brooklyn, preached to a
crowd. The text was from |. Timothy vi
10, For the love of money is the root of all
evil" Men may say what they please
about despising money, but no rational man
does despse it. The most rigorous saint to
whom million is left is quite willing to
assume the stewardship of it. While deal
ing in stocks is as legitimate when stocks
represent actual property as is the dealing
in wool or the product of the farm, yet gam.
bling in stocks is not legitimate, and yet it
takes place unblushingly, almost unre-
bukedly and increasingly. Why should not
lotteries exist when churches are full of
them, when cathedrals are opened and filled
with the most ingenious schemes, when
church fairs are carried on with the most
unbushing games of chance, when a regi-
ment is swelling its funds by the most no.

The Lesson OF 1t,

The killing of Thomas Hoar at Holyoke,
Massachusetts, recently, is a SOLDERING trag-
edy Of common life. Brutal and revolving
in the extreme, there is nothing surprising
in the event or novel in the causes that led
to it. Yet it should command present pub
lie attention to good purpose A laborer
who had gathered $50 by many days of
digging started from his home after dinner
to find his boy, Willie, and buy him a pair
OF boots Hoar never came back to his
family. The husband, naturally amiable,
could be transformed by liquor into an often
sive bully, ready "to whip any man in
South Holyoke, we have all heard this
sort of rum-fghting talk. There were plenty
of liquor saloons established by warrant OF
the law along Thomas Hoars path when he
started out to fluid Willie, and they appealed
with irresistible fascination to nature al
ready brutalized by drink. Hoar had /" liq-
uored up" several times before he entered
NJ. c. Kings saloon spelling for a row. He
was unreasonably offensive, somebody lost
his temper, there was blow, a brief scuffie,
and the saloon keeper and his bartender
dragged out the PROSTATE Hoar. He was
found dead on the snow not many minutes
later, and King and Downing the latter but
twenty years old, are held for examination
on charge of murder. Nobody need be
surprised at this tragedy. The conditions
for it exist in Holyoke and Springfield as
they have existed for years. The death of
lloar simply calls attention to the lax regu-
lation of traffic which begets poverty, fos-
ters insanity and inspires violence and muir
der. The money for shoes goes into the till
of the rum dealer, and the liquor turns the
father into one of the brutes that perish.
Ioar might have found his liquor in any
case; but the nearly hundred licensed
liquor sellers of Holyoke made it far too
easy for him to get the fighting glass Why
should that community spread so wide
snare for the laborer who walks her streets
with scant earnings in his pocket, every
dollar of which is needed at home Is it to
invite shocking events like this, too, that
Springfield grants her over hundred liquor
licenses Here is text for the aldermen
of two cities The license law was framed
to restrict a dangerous business, and not to
open a source of easy and constituencies

ALL WRoNG.-Public attention is being
called to the gross injustice of making the
number Of delegates to the national conven.
ton from the various states TO depend upon
each states representation in congress rather
than upon the number of its Republican
voters. According to the present arrange
ment two states having the same number Of
congressional districts are equally repre-
sented in the convention, though one may
be overwhelmingly Republican aud the other
overwhelmingly Democratic. The eleven re-
bellious southern states will have one hun.
dred and ninety in the Republican conven
ton, though probably not one of them will be
permitted to show Republican majority at
the election. Nevertheless they have nearly
two-fifths as much power in deciding upon a
candidate as all the Republican states. The
party, therefore, in some states has an un
due advantage. A Republican in Georgia
for instance, has three times the power in
the convention that Republican of Iowa
possesses. To give each individual of the
party his due influence it would seem that
the basis of the convention should be- as
in our state conventions, the number of Re.
publican voters exercising the right at a
previous election. The Republican party
in each state then would have its due inhu
ence and no more.

VICTORIA was SO thoroughly afraid to
pass through the streets OF London publicly,
on her way to perform the ceremony of
opening parliament, that the streets on the
route were literally lined with policemen in
citizens clothes, and every conceivable pre-
caution taken against any possible violence

timidity.

SPEAKER at the Wisconsin Dairymen's
Convention, talking of the differences in the
cost of transporting dairy products and
grain from that state to New York, said
that carload of butter in New York
would bring $1,000, and it would cost to
get it there by rail s2Ss. A carload of
good cheese would bring $4,000, and it
would cost to get it carried s24O. A car
load Of wheat would sell for 5000, and it
would cost 800 to carry it, A carload of
corn would bring 1915, costing in transit
the same as wheat. If we send wheat enough
to bring as much money as the carload OF
butter, we have to send 1905 bushels, and
the freight upon it would be si,ll9-a
difference In favor Of the butter Of 1881.

THk latest method devised in the south
for checking the exodus is to make emigra-
ton agents pay heavy license fee. Georgia
has law to that effect, which has been en-
forced in some recent cases, and Mississippi
aud Louisiana propose to follow the exam
pie. The bill offered in Louisiana requires
the agent to pay five hundred dollars for
each parish visited.
