IN This Statarnnr

In this statement, says Bill Nye in the Chi
cago Tribune, and l do not print it
because | regard it in the light
of scoop" But Il desire to go a
trifie further, and call the attention Of the
American youth to the fact that he must
begin at a much earlier date to prepare
himself for the Presidency than has been
generally taught. He must not only &C
quire all the knowledge within reach, and
guard his moral character night and day
through life, or at least up to the time of
his election, but he must be self-made
man, and he shoEId also use the utmost
care and discretion in the selection of his
birthplace.
In the first place a boy may thoughtlessly
select the wrong State, or even foreign
country, as a site for bis birthplace, and
then the most exemplary life will not avaz
him. But hardest of al perhaps, for ono
who aspires to the highest Office within tho
gift OF the people, is the selection of house
in which to be born. For this reason have
selected a few specimen birthplaces for the
guidance Of those who may be ignorant Of
the points which should be possessed by
birthplace.
Take, for instance, the residence of An
drew Jackson. No one has ever retained a
stronger hold upon the tendrils Of the Dem
ocratic heart than Andrew Jackson. His
lame appears more frequently to-day in
papers for which he never subscribed than
that of any other President who has passed
away.

corpse of a desperate, shot in attempted
burglary. And grotesque, ludicrous as the
expression may seem, she was right. She
knew that not in the robber, the law
breaker, the outcast, did the real man shine
forth, but in those rarer moods of kindness
and generosity when he was the true friend
and husband. Perhaps when two enemies,
who have refused to see any good IN each
other on this earth, meet hereafter in
another world, free from the muddy vesture
of decay which clogs their vision here, the
first thought of each will be: SIS this the

BELVA LOCKWOOD. q conversation Win
writer: "My theory as to the selection Of
a birthplace is first to be sure you are right
and Chen go ahead"
We should learn from the above that an
humble origin does not prevent success
full career. Had Abraham Lincoln been
wealthy he would have been taught per-
haps style of elocution and gestures that
would have taken first rate at parlor en-
tertainment, and yet he might never made
his Gettysburg speech. While he was
President he never looked at his own hard
hands and knotted knuckles that he was
not reminded of his toiling neighbors,
whose honest sweat and loyal blood had
made this mighty Republic source Of
glory and not of shame forever.
SO whether it be Grover, or Benjamin.
or Belva, may the President of the United
States be ever ready to remove the cotton
from his ears at the first cry of the op-
pressed and deserving poor. BILL NYE

Here he can rise to great height By his
own prowess. Little did Bonnie think at
one time that people would one day
come from all quarters of the United
States to see and take him kindly by
the hand, and say that they were well &C
quainted with his folks when they were
poor.
These various birthplaces prove to US

poverty is no drawback, and that frequently
it is a good stimulant for the right kind Of

the same way.

sly Work of ]

Sly Work of Democratic Politicians.
Considerable comment has been caused by
Democratic politicians slyIy taking part in the
election OF members of the State Board Of Agri-
culture. Politics has been altogether avoided
by those who have the interests of the board at
heart, but yesterday, L. B. Clusters party
friends especially were active In his behalf
because he Ia OF them. An cleo
tioneerer intimated that if the board
expected any appropriations the Democrats
ought to be largely represented on it. Not long
after this Governor Gray approached the en-
trance TO the room where the convention 10 held
and met four Of the delegates, three Of whom
were Republicans and one Democrat He
greeted the latter cordially, who, in turn, intro
duced him to his friends The Governor for q
minute or two chatted pleasantly on agricultur
al affairs and then referring to the election
that was about to take place. said he hoped all
OF the four would vote for Custer. as he was a
representative farmer and had proved an eff
cient member OF the board. The Democrats
delegate OF the group turned bis head 70 hide his
bushes of confusion, and as soon As possible
attended the Governor into tho convention,
where he was, no doubt told his zeal for Custer
The relation Of this incident by one who wit
messed it led to q general talk among the per-
tatlon in the two great political parties. One
said, sTwo-tnirds Of tho enterprising and we'll
TODD farmers of Indiana are Republicans. Tho
Democrats try TO make inroAds on them by cry
ing out the benefits of free trade, but it is only
the ignorant and unthinkng of their
own party who believe what is said
The average Indiana farmer, whose fields
are we'll titled and who believe in advancing
agriculture, is Republican. You will find the
same true concerning the enterprisinR cattle
men. There is q large and prosperous live stock
association in Noble county that has Demo
crat in it. In the same county some years ago
the Democrats tried to make political issue in
the election Of officers for the agricultural
society, but it was found that among the stock
holders there were three Republicans to one
Democrat. That occurred in q county where
the two parties are about equally divided In
Harrison county, also, the Democrats wanted
to throw the agricultural society into political
machine, and came near wrecking it,"
