IT may seem somewhat premature TO
discuss election possibilities Of next fall,
but II Is well i'm time of peace TO prepare for
war. There Is great deal of Democratic
blossom In the several state contests which
the conservative administration Of President
Cleveland Is doing much 10 ripen. Virginia
elects governor, lieutenant governor, at
torney general, half the Senate and the entire
House of Delegates. Malone will make a
desperate effort TO hold the legislature which
chooses his successor, but all signs point to
an overwhelming expression Of desire for his
return TO private life. The state now rejoices
In most efficient Democratic organization
and those who gamble on Democratic success
are certain to win. Ohio elects all her state
officers, and II she can hold her present
Democratic legislature, Senator Sherman
must bite the political dust The chances
favor the Democracy for the reason that they
are always most successful in the Buckeye
state in "ofi7' years. New York also elects
state officials as well as Legislature that will
choose Warner Miller's successor. Cleve-
lands state will see to 1t that he is furnished
with an additional bulwark in the chair of
the chief executive by Democratic victory.
Iowa likewise offers promising field. There
Garfield's plurality Of 7S,059 i'm 1880 was
changed TO Blaine plurality of 1875; and
| a solid Republican congressional delegation
| in the same time was broken into by the
Democrats carrying four out of the eleven
districts. Altogether the situations TEEN with
Democratic promise.

The Genuine Tar-Heel Kiss.

From the Wilson IN. CO. Mirror.
Up the perfume-swept avenue of love and
under the roseate archway of Hymen they
had passed into the ioy-lit realms of that
higher and holier existence where soul meets
soul on limpid waves of ecstatic feeling, and
hearts touch hearts through the blended
channel OF lips in rapture linked. They
had just been made man and wife, and their
souls must meet and "swap swap of labial
that osculatory performance? 1t was not
spasmodic kiss, like stopper flying out of
a champagne bottle; or a suctfonary kiss,
like COW pulling her foot out of the mire;
neither was it one of those long lingering,
languishing kisses, which lovers give when
hid by clustering vines from the glance of
the moonbeams. No, none of these, but it
was, to be alliteratiye kind of slunchwise,
siantlng-dlcular, soup-supping, sop-sipping
meeting of the lips, which went for the whole
hog of endearment or none and that is the
way two hearts began to beat as one.

The United States as Wine Growing
Natfon

There are statisticians who believe
that the United States will become in
time the greatest wine growing coun-
try on the globe. We now manuiac-
ture some 30O00.000 gallons annually,
and the increase is so rapid that in ten
years il is estimated we will produce
l00D00O00. France has turned outa
much as 1,176OOO,O0O gallons in a year.
California alone is proven to have
more vine growing soil than all
France. There are three natural vine
growing centres in this country; the
Pacific slope is one, the Piedmontese
slope, (that is the table land between
the Allegheny and Blue Ridge, which
include the States OF Virginia, North
and South Carolina, Georgia, and parts
of Kentucky and Tennessee) is an
other, and the third is the Indian Ter
ritory, with parts of New Mexico, Ari-
zona, Arkansas and Kansas. Texas
also is vine growing State. Altogether
we are said to have over 100 acres
adapted to the vine for every one acre
in France. The 30,OO0OO0 gallons Of
our wine now produced is consumed
mainly as foreign wine. 1t is put up
in bottles with foreign labels and call
Hook, or Rhine wine. Much Of the
80 called cheap French clarets are
really grown in California. Fortunate
ly for our country, the great bulk Of
the grape crop is consumed in its fruit
form, and is as healthful and useful as
il is pernicious in the fermenled state.
The grape crop is one OF the greatest
blessings OF nature. 1t is man who
makes il a curse. In California they
have learned the art of making rasins,
which is simply dried gnpes. 1t is a
curious fact that we do not consume
any more foreign wines now than we
did in 1S40. The following table gives
the annual vine product OF the world:

Two Temperance Writers.
Memphis Avalanche

1t is significant OF a growing power
tha5 each of the presidential candidates
in the last election has female rela-
tive who is devoting herself to the SUBJ
ject Of temperance. The brilliant and
witty Gail Hamilton, close kin to Blaine
OF Maine, attacked the subject the 9TH
er day in the Atlantic Review with. all
the sfrewdness and clevernes ofan old
politician OF the male persuasion oil
persons. She approached the subject
rather from the standpoint of the re-
publican party and of her distinguished
relative than from the temperance
standpoint of view She is not oppos-
ell to temperance provided temperance
will serve the republican party and Mr..
Blaine. Her object was to show the
temperance people. the folly of any
movementiin which the prime object
is not the good of the republics.. party,
to which temperance may bean unim-
portant addendum.
The Presidents sister launches into
the subject with a contempt for policy,
a sincerity of belief, faith in her own
opinions and careless disregard for
any possible political consequences to
her big brother, which must excite ad
miration. An old politician on read
ing her letter would be inclined to re-
call an illustration in Punch in which
a Frenchman, reading an English
newspaper, is made to say: by gar,

Blaine household One cannot read
the article of Gail Hamilton and the
reply of Miss Cleveland to Dr. Crosby
without condemning, especially in
woman, the insincerity and shrewd-
ness of the one and the evident ear

Whether the worldly or more spiritual
view is the wiser, must depend upon
the readers opinion as to the folly or
wisdom of the movement

False Teeth With a History.

other day. While amusing himself
with the aforesaid grinders large
Newfoundland dog walked into the
room. All at once it struck the little
boy that it would look funny to. see
the dog with set of false teeth in his
mouth. He opened the dogs mouth
and inserted the teeth, and then closed
it up again. Not noticing any change
in the dogs personal appearance, he
opened the dogs mouth again, when to
his horror he discovered that they had

Fruit Growing.

The following extract from paper
read at grange meeting in Ohio, will
furnish food for reflection for many of
our farmers who have paid no atten-
ton to the culture of fruit:
The fruit-grower is an employer, and
each plant set out is an employe which
can accomplish much or little, accord.
ing TO the masters knowledge Of its
needs and his faithfulness in providing
for them. Each plant set out is an in
dependent establishment, and if not
hindered will 60 steadily on doing the
work appointed to it by nature, gath
ering its food and changing the raw
material, by means OF the rain, the sun
shine and the atmosphere into delicious
fruit. 1t is pleasant thought that the
plants which we set out and care for
are SO many little helpers engaged in
our service, and whether we sleep or
wake, whether we are sick or well, they
still go on with their silent. busy work
1t is the fruit-grower's province to see
that all the conditions are favorable, so
that there may be no interruption OF
this work. His returns will be in ex-
act proportion to his judgment and
thoroughnes in this respect. This is
point where knowledge is power.

Salt River.

An imaginary stream up which a
defeated candidate is supposed to be
sent, whence he is not expected TO come
back. The origin of the expression is
AS follows: Salt River geographically,
is a tributary of the Ohio Its source
is in Kentucky and, and being very
crooked and difficult of navigation, it
was in the early days favorite strong
hold for river pirates. These highway
men were in the habit OF preylng upon
the commerce of the Ohio and rowing
their pIunder up Salt River, whence it
was never recovered. Hence it came
to be said of anything that was irreyo-
cably lost, ats rowed up Salt, River"

to unsuccessful candidates. "He has

An Old Virginia Gentleman says: l

England; or hay from Illinois, not on

KEEP NOTHING FROM MOTHER.

And they spun the fine white thread;

For her joy was most complete.

And with Ii thou must not part.

Which her mother may not hear.
