Prof. George Root, the Meteorolo
gist, gives warning that great event
in meteorology Will take place be
tween September II to Is, 1889, and
is destined to be the greatest storm
period that has occurred in the last
hundred years or during the last cen
tury. This storm will be universal,
covering every meteorological district
Of the globe. The main part of the
storm will in all probability take its
course along the Gulf and Atlantic
coasts, producing terrific hurricanes,
tidal waves and possibly earthquakes.
The interior portion of the United
States will be severely affected also
by eddies or "spurs" from the main
storm, which will spread over the
in high gales and terrific
storms during the passage of the
main storm.

the negro question. They desire to
keep this question uppermost in the
southern mind and thereby prevent
investigation and discussion of the

time Mrs. Canfeld's utterance set
them wild and they insist that south

Capital, labor, land. This is the
order in which the three factors in
production occur to-day. While it
is true that nothing can be produced
without land. Land is valueless
without the application of labor, but
the grip of capital upon labor, which
brings forth fruit from capitals land,
is drawing tighter and tighter every
day. Thus it is seen that tho law of
nature is reversed by the selfshness
of men. How people of intelligence
can treat with indifference this gloomy
spectacle is beyond human ken. Time
works it's own changes, however,
and though they will not awaken
themselves, its steady march will
ultimately awaken them. Then look
for reform.-Craftsm an.
