A great curiosity in the way OF
watches was recently exhibited in Ge-
neva. This wonder is nothing less
than a watch with one wheel, manu-.
factured in Paris in the last century.
This wheel which gives the watch its
name occupies the bottom of the case
and the center of the plate; 1t has six.
ty teeth, and Is SO mn in diameter.
It's axis carries two pinions, one Of
which receives the motive force from q

Cousin Mark az didn't think /
should feel so bad about leaving.
Jennie: "He is the wreck, you re-
member"
A long pause.
Miss Kent; ~ think I hear the
baby"
Cousin Mark; "Oh, no. You arefond
Of babies are you not, Miss Kent2
No answer from Miss Kent.
Cousin Mark: II have been a very
lonely man, Miss Kent, but l never
| realized how lonely the rest OF my life
must be until | came to this house"
Jennie: ooh, how lonely"
Cousin Mark: "Now / must return to
my business and my boarding-house-
clearinghouse for a man SO fond Of
domestic life as | am, Miss Kent"
Just then we very distinctly heard a
little kind of a purr, which sounded
very like a note of intense sympathy
from Miss Kent.
Cousin Mark: II have friends in San
Francisco Of course, but no tireslde
like this, nobody to care forme if lam
ill, nobody to feel very badly if / die"
Jennie: "Thatu fetch her"
Miss Kent voice a little %quivering;)
II wish | lived in San Francisco. You
could always call upOnme if you need
ed anything"
(Jennie in convulsiOns).
Cousin Mark abruptly: eff you
will 60 to California with me, Miss
Kent, III wait another week"
Miss Kent; "Why, Mr.. Lansing,
what do you mean? What would
folks say?'
Cousin Mark: 1--WE don't care for
folks, Miss Kent. If you'll go, we will
have a house as pleasant as money
can make it. You shall have birds
and flowers and horses, and all the
scientific monthlies you want-deuCed
if you shan't-and you shall never sew
another stitch for anybody but me.
Will you be my wife,"
Just then Jennie and | stepped up
another peg, and there was that little
old maid, who wouldn't marry the
best man that ever lived, Rugged close
to the mans breast, who wouldn't
marry the best woman that everlived,
not even to save her life. We came
away then, but it's my opinion that
they remained in just that position
till we rang the bell half an hour later.
Glow did you know" | asked Of
Jennie.
MY dear" she answered, Tiny whole
reliance was upon human nature; and
let me tell you goosie, whatever else
may fail, that never does"
"Why, Miss Kent, what makes your
face SO red?" inquired Jennie, upon en-
tering; land Cousin Mark, how
strangely you look! your hair is all
mussed up"
"And l hope to have it mussed
often" said Cousin Mark boldly.
Mise Kent and / are to be married
this week"
Jennie laughed till her face was pur-
pie. and when | went 10 stairs. Miss
Kent was pounding her back.

A New Issue in Politics.

The Republicans say that the Pro
hibitionists have only one issue. If so,
let us have another and call it ''POliti-
cal Intolerance
This trait Of character is fatal to lib
erty. 4 free Government cannot live
where it is tolerated. Its history is
bloody. The human heart grows sick
at recalling its cruelty and inhumanity
in the years long gone by 1t seems
strange that it should have become the
policy of the party which used to pose
before the world as the only and eXclu-
sive friend of liberty and equal rights.
But nevertheless it is so. In this
Commonwealth there are men who have
certain political opinions and are afraid
30 sustain them publicly. Often, those
who do assert their manhood and indie
pendence of action in politics are made
to feel the weight of this damnable in
tolerance.
They have burned men in effigy and
rotten-egged women. They have gone
TO those who hold opinions of their own,
aud said, IF you vote your convictions
of right at the ballotboX we will work
against you, and We will ruin or injure
your business. You shall be called a
'erank, a swiRdler, villain. Your
reputation shall be blackened, your
place in socity torn down, and the very
boys in the street shall ieer at you and
call you vile names"
Is it it any wonder that men are i'll
Inundated, and that they are afraid to
publicly maintain the great rights guar
anteed to them by the supreme law of
the nation?
The Republicans are crying about
the intimidation of the black men in the
South. If such thing exists there it
should be stamped out. But right here
in Kansas and also in other places,
they are guilty of the very thing they
say should be crushed out in the South.
If one should be crushed then the other
should also.
The threat of ruined character, a
blackened name and blighted prospects
in business, is just as terrible to sen
sitive mind in this State as the coarser
threat is to the ignorant, uncultivated
one in Mississippi.
There is something dangerous about
this. 1t is antagonistic to the very
spirit of our institutions. 1t is the en-
envy of free Government. y Prohibi-
zionist is the equal of a Republican
before the law. He has the same right
to express his opinions politically with
out danger to his person, property or
reputation as a Democrat or Republic
csn. If he has political opinions he is
no more of ''crank'' than any other
man who holds political opinions.
The days of martyrdOm are gone by.
The party that tries to revive the spirit
of the Inquisition is doomed. There
are enough haters of intolerance in this
country to damn the party forever that
plants itself ON that platform. All that
is necessary to do is to draw their at
tention to its existence. The people
are hardly aware to what extremity this
thing has crept into the Republican
party. The only hope of this party this
fall is to smother and stamp out free
thought and expression. Shall it be
done? Those Republicans who are in
favor of giving to their Prohibition
brothers as many rights as they them
The Abilene reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1883-1888, 1885-10-15

selves enjoy should rebel, and help
stamp out this infamous, damuable
spirit.
Let intolerance be crushed, and the
party that dares nouriSh it in its bosom.
Let the watchword be ''DeGth to the
liquor traffic and death to intolerance. "
Let this be one of the great issues of
the campaign. Add this to the one the
political chieftans say We have, and we
will sound the death-knell to their
hopes.
