Tempest in a Teapot.


The tr.uiblc over the r.nting Of til. Met IN
"'iist church f"r school purposes was sri-
tied last week at "a meeting of the church
trustees. Presiding Elder Mills and Rev
Bennett of the Methodist church met the
trustees aud made a protest against their
action, hut IL Was too late to remedy What
had been done. The school board held !,
l.ase from the church trustees, and were
not disposed to surrender their rights ia the
premises. So the matter came to an end.
So lar as known, III. only grounds for oh
jectiou to the action ri the trustees WAS
that they did not get money eno,,gl, for its
rental. the price for the school term being
SiWb. lna-nuch as there was u debit hang
ing over the church. whirh the TRUSTEES felt
under o,'ligati"ns la ii.,uniat-, they thought
hest IL take this sum rather than not rent
the eiitice, as the school board would not
have pnid more. To II man up II tree, the
trnste,s acted wisely. They eau ut lr,st
keep up the interest ON the debt. aud il is
always better to raise money i.gitim,trly
than resort To the begging process. M
blame can attach to the school hpar, for
it's action in the matter. Even il the rent
agreed upon may not m quite rs large as
might have been expected under some cir
eun'stances. ar for some purposes, il should
l'e remembered that for years the school
board freely gave the use of the school
house for church purposes. and in winter
furnished fuel to heat il without asking or
expecting cent of compensation. Besides
this il may be remarked that had it not
been for the contributions II on-churcl,
g"ers. the church people would not have
50 fine an esliiice to worship in, to say the
least. Hut the trouble is not made by the
people who built and paid Tor the church
but by out tsitlcrp.

About Northern Seed Corn.

Mr.. E. D. Haney,, of Republican
county, this state. writes concerning
northern seed corn, to the Kansas
Farmer of recent date. As Barton
county farmers are all anxious to know
what is the best corn to raise, we re-
produce the letter:
81 notice in your issue of August 9,
a request for the testimony of the breth-
rem in regard to northern seed corn. I
arise to say that I have had quite lit
tie experience in this line. 1 came to
Kansas IN 1871, took the farm that I
now live on as homestead on the 4th
day Of May, 1871, and Of course was
here when the hoppers laid waste our
our corn crop in 1874. AS had lived
privious to coming here in Minnesota,
concluded to get some seed corn that
would mature before the hoppers made
their devastation. He sent one bushel

it was right here in the state of Maine
that all the dreadful effects ought to

find party Lines drawn where they were
in the corresponding election of 1884.
There M " have been changes, but the
defections upon enc side have been
equalized by gains from the other. No
"cyclone fear' has stampeded the mi

from the liberal pa. -ade of the free trade

pitched over against each other iR

What Ben Butler Once Thought.

81 am one of the largest woolen man
ufacturers in the United States. 7 do
not say this boastingly, but to show
that am not selfish in the views
hold. The cloth wear is OF my own
manufacture, and notice several gen.
tlemen who wear the same. On these
goods there is tariff of sixty per cent
Republican orators tell you this tariff
is to protect the mill laborers. Twenty
per cent. will pay our entire labor ex-
penses. What do you suppose becomes
of the other forty per cent. These same
republican orators and newspapers
tell you it goes into the United States
Treasury. Not dollar reaches there.
Every cent goes into my pocket. And
every one of you is paying this bounty
to the wo0len manufacturers. The
whole tariff scheme is an imposition
and fraud on the American people. y

back her corps to his arms, but I have
seen women with their white arms lift
man from the mire of degradation and
hold him to her beeom as if he were an
angel!''
. There is a controversy going on ia
the columns of our agricultural con-
temporaries with reference to the best
method Of telling the age of hog. The
man who takes up two seats In "a rail-
road car could probably tell the age Of
a hog by locking in his family bible.
A noted and thoughtful American au-
thor says: :. If a man builds. nature
straightway sets to work to undo his
building. Rust eats into the iron, and
decay into the wood, and, little by little,
time ravages and destroys. But if q
man plants, nature proceeds to complete
his unfinished work. He sows a seed,
and behold wheat; he plants q cutting,
and behold a tree ora vine. Such is
the difference between working alone
aud working with God.

Give the Child an Answer.

The husband of lady in Oklahoma
has theory. He was always quite sure.
Now" he said to his wife one day, Il
don't like your appearing ignorant be-
fore the child: Inever do. 1t is not
well not to have an answer to anything
the child asks. IF you say L don't
know you simply kill your child's
faith in you. 1t does not matter what
she asks, you musthave an answer, and
positive answer for her." And he
went down and brought her one Of
those box alphabets that lie all over the
floor, and fall under the sofa, and get
into the crack of the door, and finally
render it unsafe to walk anywhere in
the house. She sat down and selected
the word ''hen" to illustrate the mean
ing and value of the alphabet. She
looked at the three letters lying on the
carpet, and to the guileless father thus
she spoke:

No NATTER where you go, you will
always find those who obstruct your
pathway, always find those who belittle
your endevors. who prove great stum-
bling blocks to your progress; who are
continually predicting your failure;
those who magnify your indiscretion;
who lie about you; those who put up
jobs on you; discourage the efforts you
make, and rejoice over your failures;
those who are envious, Jealous and
cruel. You can not escape those people;
they lurk in every town and city; in
every community, and knowing this
there is then but one way to thrive and
hustle. IF you find not that which you
seek in one spot seek elsewhere. If
clouds hang low and black, wait till
they roll by and for the shining of the
beautiful sun that is behind.

In SEVEN Of our western states there
are mortgages aggregating the enor-
NOUS total Of four billion five hundred
million Of dollars, and in Kansas the
mortgage Indebtedness amounts to
nearly two hundred and fifty million of
dollars; now If protection is response
BILE for the prosperity of the manufac-
turer, it is also responsible for the debt
Of the farmers in Kansas. For you cam
not enrich one, by robbing another,
without making the one robbed the
sufferer, and these mortgages are what
the Kansas farmers have contributed
towards protection. We pay each year
in Kansas in the EXCHANGED price of
our goods caused by protection, more
than twenty millions Of dollars.
