repeatedly expressed in the col

be men of sound political judg-

lican party at Chicago. that il

A Change for the Better.

There are more temperance organiza-
tions and societies in the country to-day,
more men who are total abstainers, than
at any time in its history. There are
three or four States where the sentiment
against the use of Intoxicating drinks is
so strong that their Legislatures have
been compelled to adopt stringent legi-
Station on the subject. The memory of
most men living can recall the time when
the National Congress, the Senate as
well as the House of Representatives,
witnessed scenes of intoxication that
shocked and disgraced the whole coun-
try. Strong drink was openly sold in
both wings of the Capitol at Washing
ton, and it was an ordinary occurrence
to see drunken Senators and Representa-
tives staggering through the corridors to
their seats in the two branches of the
National Legislature. 1t is true that
liquor is still sold there; but it is in vio-
lation of the rules. The Congressional
revelry has come to an end, and no man
who is known as habitual drunkard,
no matter how great his ability or how
excellent in other respects, can retain
his seat in either body. This is true of
nearly all the State Legislatures. Ninety
per cent. of the oficeholders of the
country, State and Federal, are men of
temperate habits. They cannot, in fact,
be elected or appointed if their lives are,
in this respect, scandal. In private

OIeomargarine in the Legislature.

Artificial butter was discussed by the
Assembly recently, and the evils as
cribed to it are deserved by some of the
combinations of grease and milk that are
sold as products of the dairy; but the
Legislature might as well go slow as to
have it's conclusions set aside within a
year or two Genuine oleomargarine is
an imitation butter that experts have
pronounced almost identical with the
original product of the churn, and it is
much cheaper than butter made from
cream; consequently it appeals to the
pockets of consumers, who outnumber
producers at least ten to one. It's imita-
tions, made of materials that cannot bear

few days be offensive to taste, smell and
health, should either be suppressed or
sold under their proper names. The

the population of the United States
should not be specially taxed to support
dairy farms, neither should they be sub
jected to unhealthful limitations. Com

tected and punished. The law as it is can
effect this end with but little additional

this be done. For the rest, the interests

old mothers apron strings, and is of no

of course he will. A girl whozwould
make such a remark is not worthy to
blacken the shoes of boy who is kind
to his old mother. Such a girl has got
no more heart in her than a turnip. 1t

meanest men in the world are those who
have allowed themselves to drift away
from their mothers and forget all about
them. The best and bravest men in the
world are those who have never been so
proud as when doing something pleasant

Beet Sugar Making in England.

The London ITneeS notes the recon-
mencement of beet sugar making in
England. The works at Lavenham in
Suffolk, where beet sugar was manu-
factured from 1869 to 1878, have been
acquired by private company for the
purpose of recommending the industry
with the advantage of recent and more
economical processes. The company
has an authorized capital of 81, 900, 900
and includes many gentlemen of high
standing. The purpose of the company,
as explained at large gathering of agri-
culturists, is to start the new industry
so that sugar factories may soon be
dotted about many parts of the kingdom.
Lavenham is chosen for the beginning,
because the beet crop is new to farmers
in that neighborhood. The projectors
of the company, after four years of study
and experiment, have reached the con-
clusion that recently invented methods
of extracting sugar from the beet are
simpler and less expensive than those
formerly employed, and they are conf
dent that the industry will be remunera-
tive if only a sufficient supply of beet
is forthcoming. Not only has there been
Improvement in processes, but in the
qualities of the beets themselves, the
experiments of the Sugar Association of
the Zollverein having resulted in the
development of roots richest in sugar.
The plant has been so improved as to
grow the heaviest weight per acre COM
patible with the most sirupy quality of
juice. The present agricultural depres-
sion in England specially invites to any
experiment which offers reasonable
chance for profit. About one-half the
l 900, 900 tons of sugar consumed in the
United Kingdom last year was made
from beet in countries OF Europe no more
favorably situated than England. There
are thought to be suitable tracts of land
in England on which the beet sugar
industry may bring wealth OF produc-
ton similar to that seen in France and
parts of Belgium, of North Germany
and Prussia. Germany has increased its
beet crop in ten years from 5000, 900 to
8,5OO,OOO tons. The company offers
twenty shillings per ton, delivered, as
their price for the roots. The yield per
acre may be safely estimated atfrom Is to
20 tons, and the total cost of cultivation
per acre is estimated at $55. A yield OF
Is tons would make the market value OF
the crop about $75, or yield of 20 tons
about 800. The Times suggests that
the company might proftably go shares
with the farmers in growing the beet,
the occupier finding land and horses and
the company finding manures and
manual labor. American farmers will
watch with interest the results of the
English experiment.

Warm for the Soldiers.

The heat which has destroyed so many

British instead of Hindu troops

where it was forced to turn back-it
encountered heat varying from 125 to
139, and lost upward of 4, 800 horses and

more than once over two days without
water, an officer attached to the expedi-
ton has recorded that of the many men
who fell out of their ranks only four
actually died.

"That Lass o. LOWrie's.o

The Pocahontas mine disaster revealed
a situation which reminds one of Mrs.
Burnetts novel. The story is told as
follows:--
"About sundown hardy lass, with a
tall and fine physique, sprang upon
stump and exclaimed: i have father
in that mine, boys. He is dead, and I
know it, but loved him and L want to
bury his body decently. I will marry any
man in this crowd who will lead party
into the mine This singular appeal
met with no response, although the
girl, whose name is Mollie Merris, is the
object of admiration among the young
men,"
1t would be little becoming to ques-
ton the courage of men situated under
such circumstances, or to weigh the in
fuence of such a motive for daring act
as was offered by NEollie Merris. There
is one thing to be said for her, though:
she offered all she had to give. To her
filial devotion the recovery of her dead
fathers remains demanded from her that
complete self-abnegation which is signi-
fed by such an offer. She seems to
have been a girl above the common or
der of miners wives and daughters, and
the offering of herself, her life and her
hopes-for competition, would appear a
foolhardy thing, but for one fact. View
ing the question from the standpoint of
Darwin's theory of "the survival of the
fittest" the man who would elect to risk
his life in the dangerous pursuit to
which she invited him, would be pre-
cisely that one of those present who
would probably best deserve and be
most worthy of her. For he must needs
appreciate the nobility of the girls self
sacrifice, and her worthy respect for her
dead fathers memory-as well as be in
possession of the merely physical cour
age required. None such appeared, and
it is evident the standard of heroism,
moral or physical, in that locality, was
not equal to Mollie Merris'S demand
This fact does not detract, however,
from the dramatic value of the situation.

Gen, Mackenzie's Fiancee.

A San Antonio letter says 1t is prob
ably known to but few that Mackenzie
was to have married within few months
when his mind failed him. His be-
trothed is a Mrs. Sharp, of Antonio,
Texas, a lady to whom he was deyotedly
attached. Some Of his friends think
that the emotions in view of his prospec-
tive happiness were too much for the
soldier, and when the whole story is told
there is probability about this theory.
Years ago Mackenzie was stationed here
for time and lived in the family of
Mrs. Tunstall, who is the mother of
Mrs. Sharp. The young girl, just ma
turing into womanhood, was great IA
vorite with the young officer, and there
grew up between them a great friend
ship, amounting to passion on the part
of the then Lieutenaas, his friends say.
The lady was of fneTfaIniiy; Mackenzie
had his stars to win. They drifted
apart, Miss Tunstall became Mrs. Sharp,
and the excitement of border warfare
helped relieve the tension on the rising
officers heart-strings. A few months ago
Mackenzie came back here, no longer
subordinate, but to take Gen. Ord's
place. Frontier fighting was thing of
the past, and before the officer was the
last half of lifetime of garrison quiet
and ease. He came here to find Mrs.
Sharp a widow, and the old feeling re-
vived with increased strength. 1t was
not long before Mackenzie learned that
his ardent love was returned. The
course of courtship ran smooth and even
as the cement promenade around the
parade ground. The day had been set
for the nuptials. But the cup of happi-
ness was too full The strain on heart
and mind had been severe one through
all the lonely years and the camp hard
ships. The relief and the rebound were
too much. His friends say the General
seemed to let go all restraint with the
sudden change in his fortunes. Stronger
grew the delirium and the excesses un-
til all became alarmed, and finally the
last incident made plain that the asylum
claimed 'poor Mackenzie"
