The six wet alderman Of Char
lotte have inaugurated a deadlock
in council, remaining away and
breaking quorum, fearing that
the mayor and "dry" alderman
will take harsher measures against
the liquor interest. 1t is probable
that the cast iron prohibition Or
dinance, which now forbids q man
to keep liquor in his own house
for his own use, will be greatly
modified.

our ordinary blessings. Every
autumn the President and Cover
nors issue proclamations of thank
fulness, and we are brought to-
gother in our churches to join in
thanks. Every, day ought to be
d day of thankfulness. We must
see a blind man led by.adog be-
fore we learn to, know what a
grand thing it! isto have our eye
sight. We see a soldier on a
crutch and we1 realize what a
grand thing it IS to.have the use of
our physical powers. We are so
stupid that nothing but the mis-
fortunes Of others awaken us to
the thankfulness for our blessings.
We are on a train which goes
through the drawbridge and many
perish; we call together our friends
to give thanks that we escaped;
but to morrow, if we go and come
back without accident, wo give
no thanks: In other words, we
are moro thankful if fifty perish
than if all are safe. In ono case
the thankfulness comes from self
ishn ness, but in the other it would
be more what it ought to be-. If
you are thirsty and ask me for a
drink and give you this glass Of
water, common instinct would
cause you to thank me. Yet every
hour we got chalices Of water
from God and never think of
thanking Him for it. We are
moro thankful to men than to
God. Who thinks Of, thanking
God for air, sunbearns, wind, our
physical organism, eyes, cars, etc.?
Yet if they were withdrawn, sick
ness, desolation and death would
befall us and this beautiful world
would become a place Of skulls.
Let us wake up to thanlSfulness for
common mercies.

A careful observer of Ohio
politics predicts that the temper

in the State next autumn, instead
OF 10000, which is the usual num-

SOLOMON AND THE BLAoKsMrTn.-The
story goes that during the building of Sol.
omon's temple, tho wise ruler decided to
trent tho artisans employed on his famous
cdifice to banquet. While tho men were
enjoying the good things his bounty had
provided, King Solomon moved about from
table to table, endeavorng to become better
acquainted with his workmen. TO one he
said:
"My friend. what's your trader"
"a carpenter"
"And who makes your tools2"
'!The blacksmith"
TO another Solomon said:
"What is your trader"
GA mason"
"And who makes your tools7'
"The blacksmith"
Tho third stated that he was stopo
cutter, and that the blacksmith also made
his tools. The fourth man that King Solo
mon addressed was the blacksmith himself.
He was powerful man with barred arms,
on which the muscles stood out in bold 70.
lief, seemingly almost as hard as the metal
he worked. Il,
"And what is your trade, my good man?"
sald the king.
"Blacksmith," laconically replied the
man Of the anvil and sledge.
"And who makes your tools2"
"Make 'em myself"
Whereupon King Solomon Immediately
proclaimed him the king of mechanics, be
cause he could no only make his own tools,
but all other artisans were forced to 20 to
him to have their tools made.

There is one phase of this Malone
business. that the republicans of the north
little thought of, when they closed up their
bargain. It is best stated by q prominent
democrat in Virginia, 'Virginia's bonds
are not owned in the state. they are held
mostly in the north, and when we were
fighting Malone, we were not doing it for
our own pockets but in order to save the
credit of our state" How long does Vir-
ginia's creditions in the north expect the
party that they malign and abuse with all
their breath, to fight for them their bat
ties, when they extend helping hand and
welcoming voice to the representative Of
Reputation. when he puts his foot in the
Senate? Can you blame the Virginian
from becoming tired of the unequal strife 7
and thinking to himself. if the man whose
pocket was striving to see should not be
picked, is friendly to the open thief why
should interferef
