THE LEADING NEWSPAPER.
A Single Column Devoted to the Repor
of the Inauguration.

A Single Column Devoted 10 the Report
of the Inauguration.
The leading newspaper in New York City
in 1859 was the Gazette of the United States.
1t contained four pages of three columns
each and was published semi-weekly. 1t is
amusing to compare the issues announcing
John Adams arrival and taking the oath
and Washington's arrival, weeks sojourn
and impressive inauguration with the re-
ports of similar events in the leading news
papers of the present day In the Gazette
of May > 1889, the first page is devoted to
political essay by "Americanus" and COM
munication ON general affairs The second
page gives the regular proceedings of Con-
gress. Two-thirds of the way down the
first column of the third page, under the
simple headline, City of New York" be-
gins the report of one of the greatest events
in the life of this Nation or of the world.
But little more than two columns is devoted
to the august proceedings, and exactly one
half of that limited space is taken up by
Washington's inaugural address And yet
the Gazette was thoroughly patriotic and
seemed to be imbued with the spirit of the
times
The arrival of Washington in the city is
thus announced, the typographical style
being followed closely, except as to the old
time So:
"THURSDAY last, between 9 and 3
o'clock Z. NJ the Most Illustrious PRESI-
DENT OF THE UNITED STATES arrived in
this city
| AT Ell zabethODn he was received by a
deputation of three SENATOR'S and five REP

TIoN-with whom he embarked on board the

across the bay Thirteen Pilots in white
uniform rowed this Barge-THoMAs KIM

The most sensational paragraph In the re-
port of the Inauguration proceedings was
| the following:
1.-The Scene on Thursday last was sublime

! "WELL HE DESERVES 1T ALL"
The Gazette of date April %, 1889, thus
describes the arrival of John Adams from
| his home in Boston:
"On Monday last arrived In this city,
amidst acclamations of all ranks OF citizens,

THE TWlNE MONOPOLY.
A Combination That Has Proved Itself
Thorn In tho Enrmcrs SIde.

The honest farmer is beginning to
assemble in indignation meetings,
where he discusses his wrongs and
passes resolutions expressive of his
outraged feelings. The twine monop-
oily is great thorn in the honest
farmers side. 1t is not the only one,
but it is the one that he is the most
conscious of, and he is getting ready
to vigorously protest against ii. lie
is not less the victim of the steel trust,
the barbed-wire trust, the oil trust,
the impending salt trust, the coal ring
and the rest of the robbers who are en-
trenched behind our blessed high-tarih
wall, but he is used TO their eXactions
and rather likes them; in fact, he
doesn' see how his grain could grow
and his nocks multiply without the
glorious stimulus of protection to the
infant industries of Pennsylvania. But
this twine trust in some mysterious
way has chafed his scnsibilities; it has
CALLED him until he winces; it has got
him as mad as a wet hen, and he is
indignating and resoluting with fire
and copiousness which show that his
spirit is not wholly broken, however
much it may have been cowed by long
standing abuses not the less effective
because they were unperceived by the
deluded victim. For wonder he has
discovered that high-priced twine
doesn't mean high-priced wheati
no, not by jugful He might have
found out some time ago, if he had
pleased to inquire, that high-priced
lumber, iron, steel, woolens and cot
tons were equally Intellectual in max
ing high priced grain, but he has been
so busy preserving his country from
the hated rebel and the accursed Brit
isher that he really hasn't time to en-
anime the facts. He has just voted to
keep up his "home market" and to
'enable" Mr.. Carnegie to pay high
wages, sweetly trustful in the gildcd
promise of the prophets of high taxes.
1t is hopeful sign that he has at last
opened his eyes and thrown off his
lethargy. 1t BODIES no good to the
kings and barons. The enemy in sight
is the twine trust, but the honest farm
er will presently see behind that the
serried ranks OF the other trusts and
combines and protects; and then will
ccme the deluge. Meanwhile the hon
est farmer is doing some thinking on
his own account. He Is putting two
and two together and finding out that
the sum of the addition is four. When
he has got far enough along in his
practical arithmetic to determine that
if he gives $1,000 worth of wheat for
5000 worth of goods he is out of pocket
the whole difference, whether that
difference be collected by the Govern
ment for revenue or by Mr.. Carnegie
for protection, it will be just as well
for statesmen of the Mckinley and
Randall school to take to the woods.
The corn-felds will be too hot to hold

A ROTTEN BOROUGH.
Has Rhode Island IL Republican Form of
Government Not?


THE minority majority in Rhode
Island still holds its grip on that
State, and the candidate for Governor
who received the largest number OF
votes is now about to be defeated by
the Legislature. Governor Davis re-
ceived Il large plurality of the popular
vote, but in that ligarchy-ridden
commonwealth this fact is of no inn
porrance. He must have n majority,
or more than one-half of all the votes
cast, and if no candidate receives that
number, then it becomes the duty OF
the Legislature, representing much
smaller minority, to elect the Gov
ernor and such other State officers as
have not received a majority vote.
Besides the fact that the State is
districted in such a way as to give the
manufacturing lords complete control
of majority of the districts, it is
necessary that each legislative can
didate should be elected by majority
vote of his district, and in case no
candidate in any district receives
majority, then the incumbents whose
terms were about to expire hold over
and continue as Legislators until the
next election.
One can easily see how, under such
circumstances, the whole law-making
power can be held in the grip Of "A
few wealthy and unscrupulous men.

opinions that the mass Of the people
reject. The legislative districts are

small that it can be more easily man.
aged and controlled than Cook Coun-
ty. 1t is safe to say that if political
matters were conducted in Cook
County, or in any Western State or
county, with the same reckless disre-
gard of popular rights as is done in
Rhode Island there would be such II
popular uprising as would drive the
''ringsters" from power forever. 1t
was II much less threatening show of
| power on the part of 1.-The machine
in Chicago that caused the people to
rise at the recent election and crush at
one blow all its pretensions. Such
ring methods are not in consonance
with Western ideas of popular free
dom. But the Rhode Islanders do not
seem to know how to get rid of theil
devil fish, and so continue under the
rule of 1.-The machine.
1t looks as if Congress would have
to take hand in the matter sooner or
later, and investigate the question
whether the State OF Rhode Island has
IL republican form of government OF
not. The minority, and not the ma
jority, of the people appear to rule in
that State Chicago Herald.

Female Farmers.

Will the coming young woman be
farmer!
Scattered over all the broad prairies OF
the Northwest are hundreds of self-reliant,
true blue young heroines, living in small,
isolated cabins called shacks, proving up
claims, entering homestcads and making
money.
1t is lonesome, drcary business, this liv'
ing alone on wild, unsettled prairie, with
out Il face or human form to welcome one or
cheer ones sonuude, but there seems TO be
good many young women who have the
grit to hang to this solitary life long
enough to prove up "a claim at least.
Four Young ladies in Dakota last year put
their heads together and hit upon an ingen-
ious plan, whereby they could each secure
claim and yet all live comfortably together
in one house and each be upon herown land.
Instead of building four shacks with one
room each, they constructed one shack with
four rooms, but so nicely planned that each
room of the square building was on dtfer-
ent quarter section. Each had her own bed
in her own room and III that way each claim
ant at night slept upon her own land.
Society ladies of the city will wonder, not
so much how these young lady settlers got
along without social privileges, as how they
dared live so far away from the doctors.
Why, bless you! they never thought OF be-
ing sick Doctors are not half so much OF
household necessity as city people are in the
habit of thinking.
For all the ordinary ills of life, the old
fashioned roots and herbs remedies are
more effective, and much safer in results,
than modern doctors pills and potions.
These latter are so radical in their effects
that, while they may better meet the
modern desire for quick results, they
frequently permanently injure the system,
nature rebelling against the unnatural
methods employed.
1t is always safest TO follow natural
methods in treating disease. The old time
roots and herbs remedies, which our good
old log-cabn grandmothers knew so well
how to prepare, were the best medicines
the world ever knew, because they were
NATURES remedies

BEER AS A BEVERAGE.
Its Great Antiquity and Modern Use
 All Over the World.

I have heard thirsty man, drinking a
 glass of beer on hot day compare it to
 tar.and pronounce.it lift for the gods" !"
 but few people really know that beer
 was really drank in Egypt in the days
 when mythology tells the gods held
 high revel on Mount Olympus; but such
 is the fact. Beer made from grains of
 various kinds is spoken of by nearly all
 the writers of antiquity. Herodotus,
 who wrote nearly five hundred years be-
 fore Christ, speaks of the swine of bar
 ley" drank by the Egyptians, and an
 ancient book gives details of the pro-
 cess of manufacture, showing the beve
 rage to be indentical with the beer of
 this age. Aristotle speaks of it, as does
 Theophrastus, who calls it wine of bar
 lev. Pliny refers to beer drank by the
 Spaniards and the Gauls. Tacitus says
 it was in common use among the Ger mans in his time. All these writers in conmendation of the Edrink, as dis tinguished from different decoctions of an intoxicating and harmful character. All peoples, history tells us, have intoxi- cants of some kind to which those of de- prayed tastes and vitiated appetites re- sort. These intoxicants differ in differ ent climates and different quarters of the world, but where beer is drank the use of these intoxi- cants is rapidly decreasing. And it may seem strange, but is nevertheless true, that beer made in St. Louis is drank by people in nearly every nation that has a written language. Travellers in the most remote parts of the earth tell of seeing the familiar trademark and label of the Brewing Association. The reason for this is quite easily arrived at. It is simply that good beer is the and most beneficial beverage man can drink, and the famous St Louis manufactures the very best of good beer. The very small per centage of alchohol and the large per centage of gum, sugar and starch in 1t make it the most nourishing drink ever the people. Physicians know this hence they all prescribe it for deli ,ate people who especially need 'build- ng up" venture to say there is not a reputable physician in St. Louis who las not at some time or other instructed . patient to drink beer. Surely men with brains enough to obtain standing n the medical profession would not tell hose whose health and life are in their keeping to do a harmful thing. One hing they complain about IS that the | inheuser-B Busch bottled beer, now so l adopted for household use, las made sad inroads on the incomes of | many of them by taking from them | many of their patients. The old saw avs "a child is a well-spring of joy in a |, household" It is equally true that ,ox of the Anhuser-Busch bottled beer s well-spring of health.-Globe-Dem 'crat, May 4.
