Mr.. B. q. warder. in writing to his

Mr.. B. q. warder, In writing to his
brother. Mr.. ]. T. warder. makes some
statements that will be found TO have an
important beariEg on one of the leading
issues in the present political campaign. It
has been suspected here that Mr.. Warder
was not a very enthusiastic protectionist,
but 1t appears that this suspicion was un-
Just, and as Mr.. Warder Is a very clear
headed man, who gives to all questions .
keen, thorough and most intelligent inves-
tigation, what he says in this letter will
have great weight. Mr.. Warder is at
Carlsbad, Bohemia, and writes: 1--WE have
been driven to some OF the porcelain manu-
factories and expect to visit others. Bohe-
mia is noted for its fine china and glass
ware. The time iotlI come iphen the finest
apdres of these sorts ,ril be made In Amer.
icd. was never more than am now con-
vinced of the necessity of protection, to
enable our people to get start In various
branches Of manufacturing, in competition
with the low wages that prevail here. HUI
man labor and human life seem Of little
value here. The donkey that took us to
the mountain was expected only to pull q
light cart, with one person, but we meet
women carrying great loads on their
backs. In fact, life seems to have few
attractions for the peasantry of France. or, so
far as have seen. in this country. We see
none of the gaity ascribed to the people of
the former country, or the comfortable
home life associated In our minds with the
German people. In the fields, the men
and women commence their hard work at
daylight, about o'clock. and continue un-
til dark, about o'clock In the evening,
rarely looking up as trains pass. The viii
lages of stone houses, without gardens, af-
ford but comfortless homes for the few
hours, each night, left for sleep. We ask
ourselves, What ambition can these
people have9 what pleasure in life? They
can never expect to own the land they till,
and toll on, from one generation to another,
simply for food and clothing" The admin
istration policy, II fully carried out would
place American workingmen and working
women on level with those described by
Mr.. Warder. The republicans propose to
guard and protect them from such fate.

The Rev. John A. Brooks constitutes the
tail of the prohibition presidential ticket.
Not much is known about the man, but the
fallowing utterance from his own lips
paints his portrait so completely as TO leave
nothing more to be desired:
have been q rebel, a Shareholder and q
fre-eating democrat but thank God / have
never been republican and have not that
sin to answer for.
Republicans also have reason to thank
God that Brooks has never been in their
ranks, and greater reason to thank him for
the probability that he never will be.

The many ladies and gentlemen who saw
the exhibit Of the work of our public school
pupils IN free-hand drawing and in writing,
in the new Bookwalter building on High
street. were fully satisfied of the utility of
the policy OF having these branches taught,
and well taught, to the children Of the peo-
ples' college. The work of the small boys
and girls In the primary department was
really wonderful and 1t is difficult for one
to believe (what is fact, however,) that
the geometrical figures ehown were made
without the use of rule, and the original
designs of the older scholars are really ar
tistic and would be creditable to expert
enced and professional designers. The eye
and the hand are both trained, in our pub
lie schools, by the drawing and writing
teachers-Miss Brain and Miss Knott-in
so Intelligent and efficient a way as to be
of great practical use to the children in
after life. There are few men in business
or professional life who would not feel
that 1t would be greatly to their advantage
to be able to put on paper such diagrams
and figures, or pictures, as are executed by
the quite young pupils Of our schools. This
exhibit is to be taken to Columbus and
shown as part Of Clark county's contribu-
ton TO the Ohio Centennial Exposition.

That alleged republican paper, the
Providence Or. L) Journal, which is
SO rank free trade organ that 1t supports
the democratic candidates. works off this
ingenious falsehood:
II ls noticeable. at any rate. that in the
recent labor troubles in the Pennsylvania
iron mills Mr.. B. F. Jones. late chairman
of the national republican committee. and
also the representative Of Mr.. Carnegie,
threatened to procure Italian and Hugarian
laborers to fill the places of men who were
opposing q reduction of wages, which, ii
has now transpired, was quite uncalled for.
The Pittsburg Dispatch, an independent
paper. in reply to the foregoing. declares
~ that Italian and Hungarian labor could
not perform the work in the mills about
which the recent dispute in Pittsburg was
concerned; and (sl that the Carnegie estsb.
lishments conceded the wages asked by the
men without dispute, while the Jones
Laughlin mills followed that example with.
in two weeks.

GRAINS OF GOLD.

ASK thy purse what thou shouldst buy.
What is not needed is dear al farth-
ing.
He who avoids temptation avoids the
sin.
\ wicked man is afraid of his own
memory.
\ silent mans words are not brought
into court
The way to avoid great faults is to be
ware Of less.
One always has time enough if one
will apply it.
Let your anger set with the sun, but
not rise with it.
Apply the Golden Rule to your every
act and thought.
The road to destruction is paved with
good intentions.
a man that breaks his word bids 9th
erS be false to him.
The maintaining of one vice costeth
more than ten virtues,
In order to Judge of fanother'S feelings,
remember your own.
The most manifest sigh of wisdom is
continued cheerfulness,
The great rule of moral conduct is,
next to God, to respect time.
Many there be who buy nothing with
their money but repentance.
He shat Iabors is tempted by the devil:
he that is idle, by thousand.
He that knows nothing knows enough,
if he knows enough to he silent.
He who builds according to every
mans advice will have crooked house.
Flatter not thyself in thy faith to God,
if thou wanteth charity for thy neighbor.
The more any one speaks OF himself,
the less he likes to hear another talked of.
As to the pure all things are pure, even
so to the impure all things are impure.
Inclination never wants foran excuse;
if one won't do, there are dozen others
at hand.
Be content to Go the things you can,
and fret not because YOU cannot do ev-
erything.
Time well employed is Sltan's deadli-
est foe; it leaves no opening for the
lurking iend.
The seeds of repentance are sown in
youth by pleasure, bat the harvest is
reaped in old age by pain.

SEASONABLE HINTS.

/ PlOughman
LAYING hens must be given variety
of feed at this season. if they are expect
ed to furnish any eggs. Do not forget
to give them both gravel and oyster
shells, also little charcoal and ground
bone; in fact these four articles should
be kept in the poultry-hoUse during the
entire winter Hens also need consider
able quantities of green vegetables. like
cabbage: when nothing better is found
feed every day Il little roWen chopped up
and mOistened with warm water: lit
tie meat every day is also very import
ant. For grain, give corn, wheat, rye,
oats, barley, buckWheat and millet. Not
feeding all of each every day, but chang
ing; giving one day corn, wheat and
oats; next day corn, barley and buck
wheat, etc. Be sure to give warm water
to drink.
As SPRING approaches, the farm stock
requires more care. The sheep that drop
early lambs must be constantly looked
after and well cared for, or there will be
but little profit from the lambs. No
farmer should attempt to raise very ear
ly lambs unless he has ample room and
good, warm quarters. Breeding sows
must receive good care for a month OF
two before they drop their pigs, and
should be given good, warm, dry quar-
ters. Do not keep them in damp Gel
lar on pile OF steaming manure, over
which a current OF cold air is constantly
passing. Warm the water for the milch
cows, for if they are compelled to drink
ice water, it viii not only require more
hay and grain to keep them, but they
will give less milk.
DURING stormy days farmers should
look over their farm implements to see
that they are in good order. If any are
broken they should be mended by the
farmer if he is skillful enough to do it;
if not, take them at once to the black
smith or wheelwright and have the
work done now, when work is not SO
driving as it often is in the spring.
Then every farmer who neglects to ex-
anime his tools in the winter, finds they
need mending, and rushes them off to
to the blacksmith or wheelwright with
orders to mend Immediately.
