HANCOCK AND ENGLISH,


The news came last Thursday, after
our edition was nearly off, that the
Democratic Convention had nominated
General Winfield Scott Hancock for
President and VIM. II. English for
Vice President. Hancock was born in
Pennsylvania, but has belonged to the
country for twenty years and his home
is emphatically in the hearts of the
people. English is rich indianapolis
banker, who was famous over twenty
years ago during the Kansas-Nebraska
excitement. When we were learning
the printers trade, we remember the
"English bill'' was as famous as the
Missouri compromise.
Hancock's record as a soldier need
not be discussed, it is so familiar. lie
had the luck to be present at Antietam
and Gettysburg, really the two decisive
battles Of the war, and to 10 the fighting
which won, though he was not the chief
in command. Hancock became the ideal
of the Democracy during the reconstruct
ton period and while in command of
louisiana and Texas by his insisting al
ways upon the subordination of the
military to the civil authority in time
of peace.
Both parties this time have shown re-
markable tact at least in selecting their
candidates. Voters will alternate be-
tween Garfield and Hancock for weeks
and say, chow happy could l be with
either" etc.

The above is part of an article head
ed ''yvhat the Duty?" It is brief but
just arraignment Of. the tendencies OF
the Republican party. But the Globe
should remember that it was Repub-
lican delegates backed by the protests of
Republicans which defeated the Third
Term aristocrats at Chicago. The
Grant wing is to the Republican party
what the Breckenridge wing was to the
Democratic party in 1850. In both ca
ses the aristocratlc element was over
thrown by the people.
If the Southern question could now
be eliminated from our politics, it the
people could be assured that the results
of the war are secure and that the ma

overthrown at the coming election

the Republican party is to have select

select heaven and a select hell"

The New Copying Process.

The enormous price usually asked for
such instruments as the electric pen, and
the numerous graphs" so frequently ad-
vertised, has practically excluded these
great laborsaving appliances from all except
the largest graded school rooms, and many
teachers have felt that If they possessed
some cheaper and simpler means Of produ-
cling duplicate copies of question lists, the
task of rewriting would not only be abol-
ished, but the burden once lifted, written
examinations would be much more easily

Things to Tell Scholars.

THE artesian well at Pesth, Hungary, is
now completed Its depth is three thousand
two hundred feet, and the temperature of
the issuing water 1852 Fahrenheit.
The four electric lights which illuminate
the reading rooms of the British Museum
in London at evening have each a power
equal to five thousand candles, and cost a
shilling an hour.
THE first stone of the Cologne cathedral
was laid in 1913, and it is thought that it
will be completed in another year. Gigantic
foliated crosses, almost thirty feet high, will
crown the towers.
EVEN the number Of letters written dur
ing year is known, so perfect is the post
office work managed. In 1873 the people OF
this world exchanged 3,300,000,0O0 letters,
and in 1877 they sent l300000OO kilograms
MORE than one-half of the glass used in
the United States is produced in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania, where over five thousand
hands are employed twelve thousand one
hundred and ten tons of soda ash were used
during last year, and the value of the glass
ware amounted to nearly S7,000,0O0.
"SoLANo," the biggest ferry boat in the
world, recently made a trial trip in Cali
fornia, and was built for the transportation
of passenger and freight cars across the
Straits of Carquinez, from Port Costa to
Benicia. 1t will carry forty.eight loaded
freight cars, or twenty-four passenger coaches
of the largest class.
THE audiphone is an instrument for the
practical application Of the idea of hearing
with ones teeth. A simple and interesting
experiment can be made with clock en-
closed in nickel. Place the clock upon the
mantel in the parlor, the one end of a minute
copper wire, sixty or eighty feet long, to the
ring at the top, and carry the other into the
ball. up three or four flights Of stairs, and into
any upper room that may be accessible, shut
ting every door on the way after you, and
letting the wire pass through the crack be-
tween the bottom of each and the threshold.
Arrived at your destination, put the free end
of the sixty or eighty feet OF minute cable
between the teeth, close both ears com.
pletely with the fingers, and the ticking of
the clock will be heard with nearly the same
distinctness as though the distant time-piece
were placed directly in contact with the ear.

Regular Good Cheer.

What fine thing it would be if the holi.
day mood could stay with us In the happy
season just passed the world was full of good
wishes and good will. Men and women were
generous, amiable, considerate, courteous,
and happy in that highest way-in the hap
piness of others. The blessedness of giving
was felt as it is not at other times. Ser
vice was no longer duty, but delight. The
customs of the holiday observances brought
new atmosphere to the world. A person
must have cultivated talent or positive
genius for misery and meanness who can
Withstand everybody's good wishes for his
happiness. New Years day is foe to the
sulKs, to dependency, doubts and fears.
Selfshness is ashamed of itself-or ought to
be when the very air is full of love and
thoughtfulness for others. 1t is q mile-post
for memory, but it stands on a mount Of
promise for the future. Those who were sad
yesterday to-day may rejoice. 1t is the
resurrection day of hope the point of de-
parture for new and high resolves; the
birthday of better purposes. 1t is these
moods, habits and customs that make
the holidays memorable. They reveal the
possibilities of goodness, of noble unselfsh-
ness and tender thoughtfulness for others,
and of individual happiness that are within
this human nature of ours And if they are
so blessed for week, why are they not good
for year and for all time ? 1t would make
good many people Christian before they
knew it if they should adopt this occasional
fine mood and divine spirit of life as their
rule of conduct. Aud why not Christmas

man who, in his day, sought the happiness
of his fellow-men rather than glory, and
linked his memory to some great work OF
national utility or benevolence. This is the
true glory which outlives all others, and
shines with undyng lustre from generation
to generation, imparting to works some of

Heart-POwer,

Some men of but ordinary intellectual
ability have great heartpower They glow
with warmth, aud cheer, and brighten and
attract all around them. They make sun.
shine wherever they go. So far as infuen-
cling men is concerned, there is no greater
power than this. 1t cannot be resisted, it
caunot be overcome. An intellectual, heart
less man may perceive clearly, reason logic
ally, and be able TO demonstrate his posi-
tions, but he is cold and repelent, and while
he is respected by those who admire his
genius, he cannot be loved. He is like an
iceberg that glows and sparkles in the sun
light, but at the same time chills and freezes
and fills with fear those who behold it. Such
men are never fit for leaders, especially
when they are brought into personal contact
with those whom they desire to control
Slaves may be governed by fear, but free
men, possessing proper independence and
self-respect, must be influenced in another
way. Here is where men of heart, men of
noble soul, exert their power, and gently
move, influence and control those around
them. God has not made religion to consist
in the perfection of our knowledge, but in
the perfection of our love. Religion has its
seat in the heart rather than in the intellect.
Brain-power is great thing, but heart
power is greater. When both are united,
man appears in his noblest form. Give us
men of heart, of noble soul, of generous i'm
pulses, and if possessed of intellectual power,
so much the better. But above all things
deliver us from heartless men.-Meihodia
