Fires, murder and sudden death have
so engrossed the public mind for the past
few weeks that many have forgotten to
read the Sphinx announcement OF the fall
display, TO commence on September IL,
hardly two weeks off.
The Caliph is too much interested in the
project to let the public mind wander
IRON it.
Originating with number OF live and
progressive men, whose sole aim is the
welfare OF the city, it deserves all the sup
port possible.
The Caliph learned that the painting
was progressing most lavorably, and that
hands were at work ON the costumes, and
the libretto was in the hands OF the
printer.
The progress to date was very encourag
ing, and Memphians will be treated to "a
spectacular display never before equalled
in the south.

THE NGslriHe Banner makes the strong
point that the candidates for Governor
Taylor and Hawkins not any
longer concern themselves about national
politics, but leave the tariff and fish
cries questions TO be discussed by the
Electors for the State at large. 1t suggests
that they discuss (l the public school
system OF the State, which is but little UNI
dcrstood by the general public (2l the
assessment and revenue laws, which arc
also, IL says, imperfectly understood; (3) the
interest aud collection laws, which affect
the commercial and manufacturing classes
30 uniavorably; (i) the propriety Of call
ing Constitutional Convention, as urged
by tho lar Association; and (5) the ques-
ton Of the registration Of voters These
are all OF them pertinent questions, and
must not he lost sight Of in the excite.
ment Of a Presidential! campaign. The man
agement OF the States politics are Of far
moro importance to the people Of Tennes-
see than the fisheries question, and they
ought to be instructed by all Of our public
speakers on home Affair. Tue APPKAL
agrees with The Banner that State ques.
tons should engross the candidates for
Governor almost TO tho exclusion Of every.
| thinp else.

From every part Of the Union there
comes the most satisfactory and crafty
ing appreciation by Democrats of the
speech of Judge Thurman as the greatest
statesman in the Union. His clear, plain
and original statement OF the value OF free
trade TO the workingman is accepted as
the best OF all campaign documents yet
given to the party. 1t is unansworable.
No man, he said, haL ever heard OF q
workingman being made rich beyond his
daily pay by tariff, and every one echoes
il rs truth. No man ever heard OF a
workingman growing rich or OF any Of
them dividing profits. Whereas the
Carnegies, who 'toil not, neither do
they spin," were able to form trusts
and combines by which that gentle
man was able to draw out 81, 5O0,-
900 as his share of one years profits and
Others in like proportion. Everywhere the
trusts are cutting down the hours OF work Of
the laboringmen. Cutting downtheir wages
for these hours and at the same time are
increasing the cost Of living-the price OF
food and of clothing, furniture and tools,
10 that at the end Of year the toiler finds
himself bankrupt, paupcr, deeper in
the tolls OF the 'store" where his employer
compels him to buy all the neccssares Of

Death of George Baker.

George Baker, one of the best KIN own
farmers 10 this vicinity, died suddenly of
heart disc ase at his home in the town OF
Hustsford, Dodge county, Monday, Nov
26, 1888 His death was great shock to
bis family rs be was in apparent good
health aud going about doing his work
when stricken down. He had been fight
ing fire Oh the marsh near his residence
and was seen TO fall by one of his sons,
who, when he approached his father, dis
covered that he was dead. A physician
was at once summoned from Hustisford,
who gave it as his opinion that death had
occurred from Mr. Bakers over-exertion
in the field which brought on heart all
ment that had troubled him more or less
for some years past.
AS breeder of blooded Devon cattle
and fine breeds Of sheep, Mr.. Baker, in
company with his oldest son Aaron Baker,
had become widely known, their cele-
brated herds being exhibited for some
wears past at the Wisconsin and Mime
sofa state and other fairs. Mr.. Baker
was man of strongly marked character
istics and popular with all who knew him.
He was open and frank and the very
sense of honor in all his dealings. In the
circle in which he moved he will be greatly
missed and his death makes another
space in the old settlers ranks which
never can be filled.
Mr.. Baker was born in Erie county,
New York, June II, 1922, and he was
therefore in his 67th year at the time of
his decease. He emigrated to Wisconsin
in 1916 when he bought 200 acres of gov
eminent land in the town of Hustisford
on which he settled in 1916, and which
continued to be his home up to his death.
Iu 1848 he married Miss Deborah Van
Blaricom, who died July "a. 1866. He
leaves three sons, Aaron, James and
George and two daughters, Mrs. D.
Fletcher and Mrs. Edgar Boeing, all
residents of Hustisford. Mr.. Bakers
funeral is appointed for Friday morning
from his late home.

Do Locomotives Cause Rain?

A correspondent Of The Northwestern
Railroad Gazette advances a curious
theory for the increasing prevalence OF
foods and transforms. He says that there
are over 10000 locomotives in use in
North America, and estimates that from
them alone over $4,000, 100000 cubic
yards of vapor are sent into the atmos-
phere every week, to be returned in the
form of rain, or over 1000, 600, 900 cubic
yards a day-"quite enough" he says,
''to produce good rainfall" every TWEEN
ty-four hours. Estimating the number oil
other non-cnndensing engines 10 use az
eight times the number of locomotives.
the total vapor thus projected into the ali
everv week in this country amounts to
over 100000, 100000 cubic yards, "Is
this not he asks, Sufficient for the floods
of terror? Is there any reason to wonder
why our storms are so damaging? ?"
