STRIKING Sentiments of Sam Homes

Do you notice that when we talk
about people we never use the cop
ulative conjunction? We use the
distinctive conjunction? We use
the distinctive "but." You ask
about Brother A, and the answer
is: "Well, he's good, but he don +
pray in his family" "How about
Brother B.?' "Well, he's good
man, a very good man, but seems to
like his dram" You can take this
distinctive conjunction "but" and
chip character all to pieces with it
in a minute. You can just take
any fellow in this town and say all
about him. "He's good and kind. :"
Then commence to but him, and
the first thing you know they butt
him off the bridge, and that's the
last of him.
If have anything special in ref
erence to my wife and children to
be thankful for it is this: have no
child that ever looked into my face
when 1 was not a consecrated
christian man. God gave US one
when l was wrecked and hayward
and goddess. That little child
lived and looked in my face when
1 was goddess and profane and
wretched, and God took her to
heaven. l shall live christian as
long as God gives me a child to
look in my face, and when 1 get
there [ will fall down and beg par

Another Grand Old Sunset.

Did you see that sunset Monday
evening? The phenomenon was
surprisingly beautiful, and its ro-
seate glory only lacked the heav-
emily chariot and an angel and trump
to complete foreshadowing of the
morning of the last. day, when the
final fires shall glow in the east
and lift their flames to the skies.
An electric sea drifted slowly adown
the eastern horizon and the golden
rays from the SUMS goodnight kiss
bathed in its prismatic glories,
painting a scene above all art, and
exhibiting colors that only a God
can produce from the rarest tints of
infinite beauty on the lightning's
easel.-Glenrose, Texas, Citizen.

a SONG of GrotItu,Jn

In olden times, Bethosda's pool
Was famed for healing ali diseases;
Once plunged beneath its waters cool,
Each evil, stain and sickness ceasos
In modern days we find a cure,
Of worth a. rare, is much deserving:
remedy safe, quick and sure,
DR.. Richmnnd's SAMARITAN NERvINE,
For Epilepsy, Spasms, Feverr, Coles, Cramps
Coughs, Colds, or any kind of Phthysic;
Its merit as O leader stamps
1t far above all other physics.
1t goes at once right to the spot
Where turks the danger, never swervinR
In all the world perhaps there's not
A cure like DIR. Richmond's NERv1NE.
As in the blood diseases lie;
Each artery, each vein, each curve in;
There's nothing makes i'll humor fly,
Like the SAMARITAN NERvINE.
For old or young, for rich or poor,
Whatever class of lifo you serve in,
To health wide open is the door,
From the SAMARITAN NERv1NE.
Then, do you value strength and health,
And think these blessings worth preserving
Better than all Golconda's wealth,
is DR. Richmond's SAMARITAN NERvINE,

The Oregon Horse Co., whose
ranches are in Baker county, Ore
gon, and Fremont, Nebraska, are
the most extensive horse deal
ers on the American continent.
They branded over 5000 horses last
summer, and will brand 1900
this. Mr.. Blewitt, the company's
manager, said in a recent interview:
"Our horses are turned loose on
government lands. We never feed
them. We have five large ranches
which are owned by US. We have
about $50 corrals scattered over
the government land. We shall
turn many of cur newly imported
stations right out with the herds.
The way We do is to put about for
ty mares and one stallion in a cor
raj, where they are kept for two or
three weeks. They are then turned
out, the stallion cares for them the
following year, protecting them in
every way, foals and all. Through
the winter we have scarcely any
hired help, but in summer a large
number of men are employed in
rounding up and branding, and sep
arating the mares into new herds"

Do not let US disguise the fact
that the result in Ohio is an admon-
ishment. The republicans are de-
termined to regain control of the
government if possible. When they
had it the army and navy and al
the departments. were used to bully
and overawe and carry elections at
all hazards. Now it is a question
who the president is for in his own
state. The administration positive
ly declines to help the democratic
party. 1t must fight great odds to
hold on. In Tennessee we are IN a
fearful way.

New Hair ON Bald Heads.

A reputation which Increases with

people, on account of the real intrinsic
merit of the articles it represents, must
be founded upon some theory better
than mere flattery. Such. in brief, is
the reputation of 'Mansfield's La, Gre

New York politicians have been
trying for the past two weeks to
connect Roscoe Conkling's name in
some way with the political canvass
in New York state. He declined to
be interviewed, saying he had moth
ing to communicate to the public.
He said his legal business was very
large and all his time was occupied
in attending to that. He would not
speak on the political situation.
There is no evidence that Conkling
is training to enter the political
field, as the politicians say. He
never goes near the political head
quarters, and he is making 100000
year, which is certainly more
than he ever made in Washington.

No Rennrts for the Press.

WASHINGTON, October 19.-All
the bureaus and department officers
are engaged in the preparation of
their annual reports, and the presi-
dent has sent word around that he
wants everything completed and in
his hands before the first day in
November, when he will commence
the work upon his message. This
is accompanied by an order prohib-
iting the communication of tho con-
tents of any of the reports to the
press until they shall first be read
and approved by the president.
This is something new. Hereto
fore all the heads of bureaus have
given out abstracts of their reports
a month or six weeks before they
were submitted to congress, and the
president has never wanted to see
the documents either IN manuscript
or print, unless there happened to
be something out of usual impor-
lance or significance in them, re-
curing attention in his message.
When the Republican party was
formed it aVOWed its intention to
make war on the twin relics sla-
very and polygamy. 1t did it's
duty well against slavery. But po-
lygamy got rich, went to Washing
ton with money and influence, and
that one of the twins was saved.
The war against it was altogether
fictitious, and it not only continued
to live, but grew and fourished I'M
der republican rule. Now democ-
racy is at the helm and polygamy is
doomed. Many too-much-married
Mormons are already in Jail, and
the United States jury has brought
in twenty nine other true bills
against offenders for unlawful CO.
habitation. United States Judge
Noyes, on discharging and thank
ing the jury, predicted that the days
Of polygamy were numbered.
