there were 80. l55.7S3, and now il is es-

a changed Then there were no canals or
railroads, electric telegraphs. telephones
or monographs, and no one dreamed of
photography. The postal service was in
its infancy, the first one in your town be-

rived once a week. Newspapers were but
small affairs then and contained bu. lit
tie. When you look back over the long
era that you can recall to mind, what
wonderful improvements have been
wrought out Then, and for many years
after 1890, your mother and the women
carded and spun the wool yarn that was
used to make the cloth and when woven
the boys had TO take it to the fuling mill

be worn by tile women was pressed and
cOlored .Lunnon brown" or some equal

ready then came the tailoress, and such
fits as they gave the young men and
boys wouldn't excite the envy of the
stylish young man'of to-day. at least we
don't think so. Yet they were good hon

Now all these things are changed.
The educational world too has taken
quite a long step in advance. Aunt Jul
dy White could teach only a few of the
common branches but no one thought of
learning anything except reading, writ

Grammar, physiology, chemistry, and
the higher mathematics were not consid-

in the New England primer and the cat

two weeks by Parson Wells who wanted
to know how our spiritual education
was cared for.
In the agricultural world great prog
ress has been made. The old wooden
pillow has gwen place to cast iron, then
to steel, cast steel and then
mounted on sulky so that the plow-
man can ride and take great comfort do
ing the work and the same is true of cut
ting the grass and grass crops. Still we
have TO churn and rock the cradle, ac-

but little hard work.

the long list of improvements that sa-
Lutte us at every turn, yet old friendships |

sixty-five years have known you and
for all that time, have only known you
as an honest, upright and noble specimen
OF our noble Graves family. Allow me |

age and send you my sincere wishes for
your health and long continuance here
to bless us all by the AZ cumulated expe-

ONE hundred years ago yesterday the
organization of the government Of the
United States was projected and George
Washington inangurated president. 1t
has been IA favorite theory with political
economists Of monarchical proclivities
that no government "of the people by
the people" could stand the butfetings
of IA century-that the very strength Of
n republic was perpetual menace To
its life. Such vaporings should no longer
he heard. There is no nation on earth
of 60, 900, 900 of people so strong in the
strength Of its own laws-laws enacted
by the governed themselves; with an
army and navy so numerically small,
whose flag is more universally respected
than is that of the United States.

MANY hundreds of people who went
10 Oklahoma to take mp lands or specu-

class asserting that the territory is not
what is claimed for it as an agricultural
region. An intelligent lowan, who had
been over IA large portion of the country,
said to IA KaQsas City reporter the other
day that about one fifth Of the land was
excellent, one fifth of it was fair, while
three fifths of it was little better than
worthless. So much for Oklahoma.

Wanamaker has no more use for the

entertained by the politicians that his

ahead, wedding out from the mail SER
