Ihe Blade is unable to see any neces-

to meet at Huron in July. Siuce this
convention was fret talked of great
changes have occurred. Then north Da-
kota was opposed to division of the ter

1t is plain, then, that there is nothing
to he gained by this convention, but
there is danger lurking in it. Ii seems
to be prompted by radical spirit which
seeks to put State government in
operation IN defiance OF congress. This
step would destroy the harmony now
prevailing In our ranks, for it would not
be supported With anything like una.
nimlty at home or abroad, and it would
furnish our enemies an excuse for their
opposition. That is TO say it would
weaken our supporters and strengthen
our opponents, and this is not generally
considered good policy, To our mind il
would be wiser and more profitable to
use the money which this convention
will cost to send speakers to democratic
districts in the states and fight the men
at home who are fighting ma in congress.

In Andalusia the norias or Moorish
wells are sure tc Glitch your eye. They are
worth examining by the curious in such
matters; the construction is very simple,
but they do effective work. A broad
wheel is turned round by an old mule,
who is past other work, and attached to
this wheel are earthen jars; as it revolves
tho empty jars pass into the water and
come up full, then as they turn over they
empty their contents into a reservoir,
whence q trough or aqueduct of some
simple kind provides for household use,
conveys the rest of the water into the
fruit or vegetable garden and irrigates it
by means of channels dug In rows in the

is generally caught from the jars, for the

Grit as We'll rs Pluck.

1t is desirable that we should ave grit
as well as pluck-a power to endure, re-
sist, take the blows and still persist and
press forward. Pluck is the quality of
pitching in; grit is the quality of not
backing out. Now, we do not expect
every one to have both grit and pluck;
but every one ought to have one or the
other; and SO the community, or the So
ciety, or, as we have u habit of saying,
the commonwealth, shall have both. |
am inclined to think that, personally, l
am decidedly lacking in pluck. / am q
natural coward. have the pluck simply
to W up my plucklessness. When
you set before me a new enterprise, / am
always afraid to embark in it. But once
in, have grit. l can stick to a job of
work; and when l fight l always intend to
win. But l wish l were also plucky. Do
we not generally admire what we have
not, and rather depreciate what we have2
admire pluck, and don't know whether
| admire grit or not. l have q little friend
who is a little over four feet tall, and he
has a little head and little TEXTURES, but
he bristles up at u touch, or q word, or an
imagination. If he fancies q slight, in q
moment he snarls. and jumps, and shows
he isn't afraid of all creation. So he is
not. lie is brimful of pluck. But he
lacks grit. He pitches in and then sneaks
out. Of two generals you will be sure to
find one good at On assault, the other
good at q siege. Sometimes one is most
useful, sometimes the other.-M. Mau-
rice, NJ. D., in Globe Democrat.
