HOW A FARMER SLAVES.
A Realistic Description of the Wonderful
Operation.

A Realistic Description of the Wonderful
Operation.
One who has watched the operation
thus describes the way a farmer shaves:
To witness a farmer shave Ia one OF
the most painful operations ever wit
messed outside of downright butchery.
For some reason away beyond the depth
of present knowledge, the man who
breads the country always has beard
like a new hair brush, and he never
could learn how to sharpen a razor. -
He gets on the back stoOp with his
shaving utensils, and after rubbing the
razor over the strap in an awkward
fashion, until whatever trace OF edge 1t
may have had has been destroyed, he
hangs up his broken glass and takes q
position alongside the kitchen door,
where the old lady will be sure to jostle
his arm when she goes to empty her
dish water.
With brush that has but little han
die remaining, he manages somehow to
stir up a lot of lather from soap that
would raise blister on the bottom OF
boys foot in dog days, with which he
coats his face till nothing but his ey 8
aud the back OF his nead are visible
With cob dipped In warm water be
goes over the stubble with VlgOr that
makes the flesh creep, until he feels that
all the reasonable precautions for COM
fort in the subsequent operations have
been taken. StsSa, l--Jesa&sQa
Taking up the razor and looking at 1t
suspicio1sly over the top Of his glasses,
he runs his thumb along the edge, fails
to draw blood as he had hoped, and then
with sigh like leaving town in a
hurry, be grabs himself by the nose,
shuts his eyes, and gives scrsDe that
makes his hair stand on end as bunch
of beard seems to come out by the roots.
But once at 1t q terrible desperation
seems to;nerVe him, and with teeth set
he goes right on with determination
to get the agony over as soon as possible.
HOWls Of woe break from him now and
then, as an expression that pOlsOns life
steals over his face and stays there till
the last nerve has been pulled out OF
socket by that terrible TGz1r, and the
last bit of stubble has been laid low,
when with sigh Of relief, he strikes
up a hymn of Thanksgiving, and jOyfully
throws his shaving paper into the swill
barrel near by.

FOSTER, ex Minister to Mexico and to
Spain, is the American politician (Of
course he Is one of Blaine's adherents),
who has been counseling the Mexican
Government in the Cutting case, and of
course doing 1t more effectively by in
formation gained while in the condden-
tial service Of our Government. Foster
has made himself amenable to some
pretty severe penalties. 1t Is believed
he deliberately set himself to work to
embsrass negotiations between our
Government and Mexico, and frustrate
the ends sought to be attained by the
State Department. This involves $10,-
900 fine and imprisonment.

A STRUGGLE FOR sPOILs.

What r curious fact 1t Ia that the office
Of Chief Examiner of the Civil Service
is not one of the Offices awarded on the
so-called merit system.
This place Is worth $1,000 year. 1t
is the single piece Of patronage Of any
consequence at the disposal Of the Com
missioners. Under the philosophy Of
civil service reform by competitive lit
erary and mathematical examination,
you would suppose that the first and
most important step would be to subject
to rigid and searching tests the compar.
stive qualifications of the candidates
for the post of Chief Examiner. If any
body ought to be selected by competi-
tive examination, 1t Is certainly the
man whose duty will be to examine
others.
Yet this office goes by favor, not by
fitness as ascertained by the accepted
methods Of the civil service refOrmers.
The gentleman who Is to
ask candidates for other offices
how many pints there are In quart, is
not even examined as to his knowledge
Of the number Of quarts In q gallon. No
step Is taken to discover whether the
gentleman who will be paid $1,000 a
year for appraising the syntax of would
be clerks and letter carriers, Is himself
aware of the difference between q prepo-
sitiOn and an adverb. This Is funny,
but 1t Is true. The Cffice Of Chief Ex-
aminer Of the Civil Service Commission
is spoils, pure and simple.
Since Mr.. Lyman's appointment as a
member of the Commission, the ofice
which he formerly held has been vacant,
and there has been an interesting strng-
gle for the possession thereof. We learn
from the Washington Capital that each
of the three Commissioners had his own
candidate for Chief Examiner. Mr..
0berly's candidate was a Mr.. Abrahams,
Of Virginia, who was also backed by the
Virginia and Tennessee delega ions In
Congress and by that veteran spokesman,
Hon. Dick Bright, OF Indiana, formerly
Sergeant-at-Arm OF the Senate. MI.
EdgertOn's candidate was q Mr.. Free.
man, of New Jersey, who enjoyed the
support Of Senator Mcpherson. Mr..
Lyman had his candidate, too, q Mr..
Tindle, of New York.
According to the Capital there has
been hot triangular fight, Involving
considerable bitterness on the part Of
the three Commissioners. Each COinmis-
sioner stood up for his own candidate
for the $1,000 spoils, and refused to come
which would settle the difficulty. All
the passions Of offensive psrtisanship
ragged In the white souls Of the three re-
formers. There was q deadlock In the
CIVIL Service Commission, so far
as the selection Of q Chief Examiner
was concerned. Then the President
took q hand In the struggle and
remarked, Substantially, "You can't
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1886-08-26

AN Illinois statlstician presents very
plausible theory about the cause Of in
dustrial depression. He produces CEN
sus figures to show that while our sgri-
cultural products, like others, Increased
very largely between 1860 and 1880, they
did not increase abreast Of the demand
for them, as indicated by the Increased
export demand and the growing volume
of the country's manufacturing, mining
aud railroad interests. The result OF
this difference was that the agricultural
products per capita decreased instead of
increased; and although in speculative
markets the price Of. wheat, for instance,
has Auctuated with downward ten
dency, the average cost Of living has In
creased. His remedy, which is certain
ly not revolutionary, is an increase In
the farming population, which must be
combined with an increased diversity Of
agricultural production and the adop'
tion of more scientific methods OF fertil'
izing and reclaiming wOrn-Out lands
In this connection the breaking up Of
large farms into small ones would be
desirable.

IN seeking to avoid the trOubIegom!

In seeking to avoid the troublesome
question Of prohibition by holding no
convention this year, the New York Re-
publicans have made a bad matter
worse, inssmuch as they have aroused
the scorn and sntsgOnism Of the Prohi-
bitionlsts to dreadful pitch. The Voice,
the Prohibitory organ, declares that
"this piece of insanity has consum-
mated the work of destruction of a
party that has outllved Its usefulness" "
The Anti-saloon League, through Its
managers. gives out the opinion that
this Is "a sad error" and that 1t may
cost the Republicans the State" The
head Of the New York State Temperance
Assembly calls 1t "a terrible mistake,
which will cost the Republican, party
the State" In fact the policy Of double
dealing on this question, which Is very
delicate, from the politicians stand
point, has produced even worse results
in New York than elsewhere, although
the verdict Of Pennsylvania promises to
be decisive.

that Grouse had the Cleveland Leader on
the string, and that matter beneficial to
Mcclure was excluded from Its columns
and Grouse boomlets substituted. In
fact 1t is big row and may defeat
Grouse. Summit county Republicans
defeated Mcclure and elected Paige In
1882. Two years ago Mckinley took the
