THE TIMES WE LIVE IN.

On all hands the cause of the recent
stagnation is assigned, by business
men, to overproduction. 1t has been
said that Overproduction means SIM
ply the clogging of the markets by too
much wealth. 1t is meant that there
is too much wheat, too much corn, too
much iron, too much coal, too much
cotton, too much of the great staples
of wealth generally, preventing those
who complain from getting as much
for what they have for sale as they ex-
pected to get, or to sell as much to
Others as they expected to SELL, or to
make prices fuctuate in a manner
profitable to modern speculation. In
short, such an abundance OF any of
the staples that SPECTATORS Can not
create corner i'm the market, and
thereby Cypress the poor laborers liz
the interests of questionable methods,
to say the least, in speculation.
If we look over the world, we will
find that there never was time in
the history of the race when the lux
uries of life were so widely dissent
mated and enjoyed by so large por-
ton of the commonality of mankind
as now. The ability to afford the lux
uries and pleasures of life is increas-
ing very rapidly among the working
classes, and most IA idly among the
most Industrious and hardest work
ing classes.
It has been pertinently remarked
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1886-02-03

There are many substantial reasons
for predicting more prosperous year
for the agricultural interests of this
country during 1885 than for several
years. Manufacturing is on a sound
er basis. railroad building has revived,
public confidence is restored, capital
lists are more willing to invest in new
enterprises, the population of the
country has increased and everyone
is more hopeful of the future. It is
scarcely possible that the prices of
any staple product can remain long at
present low quotations.
At all seasons of the year a good
deal of skill should be observed in
milking. This is particularly true in
the winter, when the cows are slow to
give down their milk. The process at
best may be said to be "stripping."
But very few crave the job Of milking
cows at any time; in the winter time
it Is still less desirable. The udders
of some cows il more easily drained
than others. but in ali cases long strip
ping must not be neglected if necessa-
ry to completely empty the udder.
Cows which are not MIXED clean di-
minish in quantity and soon dry up.
The process of stripping may ne con-
tlnued so long as to be a waste of time
but we have never known case of
this kind; not one mixer III twenty
does his work thoroughly enough. 1t
requires great deal more patience to
milk in the winter than it does i'm the
summer. Sometimes we have doubt
ed whether it was good policy to sui
fer quick tempered person to milk
at all; but in any event it is necessary
that the utmost kindness to cows be
observed while milking In "giving
down" mix the cow is, for the time
being. "master of the situation," and
coaxing or extra feeding during the
process of milking has wonderful
effect on her temper.

HIS REST DISTURBED,
BECAUSE HIS LITTLE SON is IN AN
ORPHAN ASYLUM.
municatiOn with Her Dead Uncle
Manifestations of the Departed Spirit
Not Charged to Human Agency.

BUCYRUs. Ohio FEB Sat the present
our people are surprised over the spiritual
istic seances which occur at all hours Of the
day and night at the house Of Thomas
Copcutt, on South Spring street, appropri-
ately contiguous to lakewood cemetery.
The Copcutt family were formerly among
the most happy and contented and all run
On smoothly until the visit Of Mr.. Copcutt's
sister, Mrs Gardner, Of Columbus Mrs
Gardner told Ida Copcutt that she had
reason to believe she G4ida) was spi! itual
medium, and that they would talk to their
uncle, Robert Copcutt, who was killed in .
railroad accident at Columbus fast fall
For several days the Copcutt family has
zen in almost nightly communication with
the deceased brother and uncle and at
length the matter has leaked out, and friends
and neighbors have been present to witness
these manifestations of the departed spirit
Ida, the suppo ed medium, is = child of
perhaps IA years of age, and is bright and
healthy girl Through her the CON ersa-
tons are carried ON, and the following facts
have been obtained: That the uncle, Rob
ert Cop;utt, is uneasy in his present condi
ton, and that the rea:on Of his being unable
to rest is that his little son, Bel tie is in the
orphan asylum at Columbus, and he can
NOT % thoroughly n6pPy Until buls SUI 10
taken care Of Mr.. Copcutt has therefore
gone to Columbus for the boy, and it is pre-
sumed that as soon as the boy arrives his
spiritship will cease his visits.
Many people have visited the Copcutt resi-
dence, and all acknow. edge that it is unex-
plainable. Few who have been present wheE
these mysterious incidents transpire have the
temerity to assert that the affair can bs
charged to human agency. As yet the rest
less spirit has been seen by no others except
Mr.. Copcutt and his daughter Ida, and
Mrs Copcutt says that on one occasion she
distinctly heard his voice calling Mamie
Mrs Copcutt is very sensible lady, and
says she can not account for the strange Pro
ceedings, and that she does not believe il
spiritualism Many have been present at
these spirit talks" who not only disbelieve
the doctrine of spiritualism, but also ridicule
the same, and all admit that there is some
thing strange in the whole thing. What the
termination will be is not known, although
it is cause for congratulation that the spirit
is of a gentle turn of mind
The military guard about the vault will
be continued until the latter part of next
June

than at the present time. Aud it is
safe to say that, as a rule, these class
es take advantage of the opportunities
offered. 1t is also equally true that
there is great deal of extreme power
ty existing throughout the country in
connection with crime and ignorance
and Incidence in many places and
employments; but this is the excep-
ton to the general rule of widespread
prosperity in the middle and lower
classes of humanity generally.
That there is general tendency all
over the world to an increase in the
production of the luxuries and COM
mon comforts of life cannot be doubt
ed and if this overproduction is all
evil, it is Enthusiastically an increasing
evil. This is necessarily the case.
The constant progress in the inven-
ton and manufacture of labor saying
processes, the increase of the produc-
tiveness of labor, with increasing in
telligence, cannot result otherwise
than IN all increase i'm the surplus pro-
duction. This may in one sense be
ali evil, but it certainly is not an evil
when you regard it i'm the light Of the
comfort and progress of the race; for
whatever increases the facilities for
making home more comfortable and
attractive increases the pleasures OF
home and home lite, ennObles work,
and makes the ties to government
aid All upright living tenfold strong
er. It Will also tend to shorten the
hours of labor and increase those of
recreation and pleasure. This cannot
be regarded as an evil by any save
those who regard labOring man as
simply a drudge, and his every hour
of recreation and pleasure, above those
actually required for sleep, as so much
precious time wasted.-Jas. NJ. Kerr,

DAYTON, Ohio, Feb. 6.-Inquiry made here
as to the two men killed at Knoxville juno
ton, Tenn, last Tuesday, and who were at
first supposed to be members OF a gang of
burglars who have been working" Chatta-
nooga and who, it was consequently alleged,
were the Taylor brothers, Of Midway, but
well known here, shows that the latter re
port was unfounded and was probably
started by Tommy White and a man named
Kelly, who went down to Chattanooga to
identify the dead men. It Is now positively
asserted that the dead men are crooks"
known here as "Kid" Kelly and "Shamus"
O'Brien. Kid is brother of the man
Kelly who with White went down and iden-
titled them as Taylor, probably in the hope
Of fastening q charge Of murder on the
posse Of officers who killed the men.
