A snEET.IROS HEN.

Charles Kuele. an ingenious fellow in
GAINESVILLE. Ohio, has constructed hen
of sheet-iron that promises to lay him
golden egg. It is finished mp to lite,
full size, cackles, clucks and looks with
one eye at time so naturally that 1t will
deceive the oldest hen-hawk in the
country. 1t is so arranged that when a
hawk, mink or polecat peunces on it.
the back springs open and the wings ny
up and force the assailant on to q raw
enous buzz-saw that makes l7OO revolu-
tions per minute. After moving half
minute the saw stops, the hen closes up,
folds its wings and begins to oackle as
though 1t had just laid an egg. Oae
winding mp answers for three massa
cres, providing the rather delicate ma
chinery does not get clogged up too much
with blood. bones and feath srs. The
inventor set freshly painted one out
in the sun to dry, and it attracted the
attention of a fine old cat belonging
to q doctor who had been poking a
great deal of fun at "the fool thing
The hen is there still, but the cat is
hence.

In 1882 the earnings In June we're IS
per cent. more than In April; in 1888,
16h per cent. more; this year 20 per
cent less.
This Is probably because the rush of
immigrants and miners has ceased. and
a. vet there 10 little to take its place,
while in previous years there was great
movements of spectators after early
spring, and, most of all. the immense
traffic in construction materials. which
the report for last year showed to have
averaged 1927 1000 per snonth, aud in
May and June probably was as much As
100000 per month. Tsus this year
this large amount has to be Offset by
commercial freight.
After harvest material increase in
the earnings may be expected, as the
acreage under cultivation IN Dakota has
been largely increased, and there is a
prospect of a better yield than last year
The immigration 10 Dakota was got as
large ~ last year, but the falling off was
more In land spectators and traders
than in farmers, and the land which
was broken last yesr bears the first crop
this year.

Col. GRAY comes to the front with
his keynote speech, made at Frankfort
on Thursday last. Mr.. Gray tried, at a
respectable distance, to follow Mr.
Hendricks in demanding change But
it troubled him greatly to point out any
good reason why change which would
make him Governor of Indiana would
be in the interest of good government.
He touched lightly on the tariff as a
question on which the Democratic posi-
ton was so uncertain it were better not
to say much about it. He was full and
clear however on the liquor question,
and took the strongest grounds again ST
any interference with the manufacture
or sale of liquors. He believes Cleve-
land is a great and good man and ought
to be made President, and that the
Democratic party since he joined it has
become purified and made respectable.
But as Col Gray is soon to speak in this
city we will allow him to be heard be-
fore We comment upon his views.

THE attempt of the Democratic pa
pers to boom Cleveland letter is dead
failure. They cannot point out anything
in it above the common place or quote
any strong or statesmanlike passages;
they can only. therefore, refer to it In
the most general terms. And to call it
an able document without exhibiting
any of its ability leaves the impression
that they are not sincere. Indeed it is
pretty evident that Mr.. Hendricks is
not the only leading Democrat who re-
CARDS the letter with a feeling of dis
gust. 1t is undoubtedly the weakest
letter OF acceptance ever presented by
candidate for the presidency.
Richmond daily palladium., 1884-08-23
The Fourth Party Movement.


Being one of the unfortunate sex that
is not permitted to vote, but viewing
the political parties from a disinterest-
ed standpoint, and being a firm sup
porter of the temperance position, | do
not hesitate in saying that the temper
ance people have made one great mis-
take in placing third ticket in the
field
The first reason is that the temper
ance voters are not numerous enough to
contend with either the Democratic or
Republican parties, let alone both
combined against us.
Second. That we are not united in
our effort. What can we hope to ac-
complish if we, from selfish motives,
sacrifice one of the grandest principles
that men ever lived for, fought for, or
even died to save?
Third. That by placing third ticket
in the field we can not hope that either
of the great parties will concede any
thing to US, but will both combine
against US and abolish even that which
they have already done.
Fourth. That it would take a great
many years to even get large enough
majority to send man to congress on
the prohibition ticket, and perhaps
never in my life time or yours see pro-
hibition president; and, besides, we
drive a great many from our support
that don't see it just as we do.
Fifth. If we can not trust any of the
candidates now in the field. could we
trust the Prohibition candidate either?
We know that when man runs for of
fee his motives are to get there" and
he will promise everything that will
suit the masses, but when he gets the
office he suits himself
Gentlemen, you have made a great
mistake in not uniting the temperance
people first. and if you keep this ticket
in the field it will be the final overthrow
of the temperance work in congress, o.
at least will so near extinguish it that it
will take many more hard years of labor
to get it again on the ground where it
now stands Either of the parties were
almost willing to coneede us our rights,
but to antagonize them will mean to al
most annihilate US. Gentlemen, don't
be stubborn Withdraw this ticket
from the field until the next four years,
and be willing to trust God and ask Him
to unite US and give US the right spirit
to guide US, and take away our selfish
nature and be willing that His will
shall reign supreme. Mrs. L.W. H
