A hushel of corn, costing forty cents, makes

which cost only twenty eight cents.

She was the only daughter Of wealthy, but
worldly, parents. Brought up in the lap of
luxury, it was her lot to know nothing Of the

out in the carriage one day, her attention
was drawn to plain, unpretentious chapel,
the singing in which caught her attention.

Lesson the fourth: The Importance Of talk
ing good aim. There is Joshua, but how are
these people in ambush up yonder to know
how are these men around Joshua to know
when they are to stop their flight and ad.
vance? There must be some signal-a signal
to stop the one division and to start the
other. Joshua, with spear on which were
ordinarily hung the colors Of battle, points
toward the city. He stands in such con-
sp!cuous position. and there is so much of the
morning light dripping from that spear tip,
that all around the horizon they sec it, 1t was
as much as to say: "There is the city. Take
it. Take it now. Roll down from the west.
Surge up from the north. 1t is ours, the city of
All" God knows and we know that great
deal of Christian attack amounts to nothing
simply because we do not take good aim.
Nobody knows and we do not know our
selves which point we want to take, when
we ought to make up our minds what God
will have US to do. and point our spear in
that direction and then hurl our body, mind,
soul, time, eternity at that one target; In

our spear toward the flowers; or we want
a reputation for saying sublime things,
and we point our spear toward the stars: or
we want to get reputation for historical
knowledge, and we point our spear toward
the past: or we want to get a reputation for
great liberality. so we swing our spear all
around; and it strikes all points OF the
horizon, ami you can make out OF it what
ever you please: while there is the old world;
proud. rebellious and armed against all

further away from its pursuit, we ought to

THE universal sympathy which is felt by his brother senators for John Sherman in his defeated political aspirations was illus trated by little episode in the senate yes terday. The river and harbor bill was being considered, and several senators had opposed the amendments brought forward by the appropriation committee, and had submitted their protest to vote of the senate. In every case but one the com mittee was sustained. That exception was the protest of senator Sherman against the amendment striking from the bill the appropriation of 5000 for the improve msnt of the small stream that furnishes the commerce for the town of Port Clin- ton, Ohio. The army engineers had re- ported against the appropriation, and so tho committee had struck it out. MT. Sherman protested, and, after making a little speech, vote was taken. MT. Sher man won, and the item was restored.

THE New Haven News is the first mug wunp sheet in the state to define it's posi- in regard to the present campaign, and has the courage to say t.4at it will support Cleveland. The Waterbury American likes Cleveland none the less, but evidently loves the republican party more, and is undecided whether it will shout for Cleve land, Harrison, neither, or both. At present it is attempting to tickle the palates of both democrats and republicans with poor success, judging from the mut- terings and fault-fnding of those who have all along been its warm friends. If the American is to live up to it's principles of independence it must come out flat footed and support either Cleveland or Harrison, but if it is to be neutral fence straddler, the public should know it. Come now, American, speak up, which shall it be

THE magnanimity with which the re- publican press offer to let bygones be bygones in regard to the excommunicated mugwumps is 'amoosin," as the late Ia mented Josh Billings would say For over three years the mugwumps have been abused and vilifed by the republicans. They bore it all in patience, knowing that sooner or later they would have the laugh on their side, and they are having the fun now. Come home and all will be forgiven is the cry of the republicans, but the mug wumps won't come. --.

ANOTHER EVIL OF PROTECTION.

Another evil of protection, says Prof
 A. L. Perry, ''is the absolute loss of for
 eign markets to home producers to the
 same extent that the home market is re fused to foreign producers. If man will not buy, then he cannot sell, because in buying, he has to pay for what he buys, and that is selling, and, because, in selling, he has to take his pay for what he sells, and that is buying. Buying and selling are one and inseparable. When, then, United States citizens are prohibited by tariff taxes, from buying OO,0OO, ,OQ0 worth of foreign goods, they are by the very same terms prohibited from selling 0O,OOO, 900 worthl of their own products longing for foreign market. The United States is great country, and offers an excellent market to home pro ducers so far as it goes but with our natural facilities for manufacturing the world-it does not take long to glut the home market in any particular pro duct. "We are smothered i'll our own grease, says Professor Perry. The supply is greater than .he demand, and tho mar ket is soon clogged, production ceases ol goes slow, and thousands are thrown out of employment. The paper industry of the country explains this point. The mills make, in eight months, all the paper the company requires, and not having a foreign market, they must remain idle fol the remaining four months of the year. So of twenty other products. The people in the agricultural districts art also effected by the evils of protection. They are compelled to buy all that the. buy for more than is right. and to sell al. that they sell for less than is right. The, have to pay prices artifcially raised bs protection for everything that comes into their houses in the way of supplies or upon
 heir farms in the way of tools, such as clothes, cutlery, carpets, screws, nails, hammers, blows, and dozens of other things, while on the other hand no product of the farm, not even wool, sells for any: thing like it would if the market of the world were open'to them. Europe would take double the wheat she now takes if we would take some of her goods in exchange. Thus the farmer would be benefited At the same time our mills and foundries would run full handed all the year round, and the men who work in them would have what they do not have now, steady and re- employment.

The first teachers institute Of AL
turas county was recently held at
Haley. The meeting was presided
over by our worthy superintendent,
Mrs. Frances Butler. The session
was grand success from beginning to
ending, and the teachers enthusiastic.
The citizens of HALEY and neighbor-
ing towns were present, and gave
careful attention, showing clearly that
they were interested in the cause of
education. Gen. Geo. II. Roberts
delivered an able, eloquent, and in
structive lecture on Tuesday evening
selecting as his subject "Stephen
Girard." On Wednesday evening a
miscellaneous program was rendered
by the teachers and friends of educa-
ton. Thursday evening Hon. Silas
w. Moody, Territorial Superinten-
dent, gave lecture on "Growls at
our Public Schools" in which he pu,
before his audience picture of oul
school system painted in all its bril-,
liancy, then reversing it, clearly illus
trated the defects, etc. Idaho is just
ly proud of her public schools. He'
buildings and accommodations are
excellent, and the salaries paid bring
to her children the very best teacher:
in the land. Alturas county, form
ing almost an empire Containing
$4,000 square miles) with her ex
haustless mines of gold, silver. anc
lead, is not forgetting the wants o
the little ones.

the distance run was II feet, but the

The management is more con6den
than ever over the outlook for the

from the mouth Of the shaft is evi
dence that the deeper you 60 the NOR
