EDITOR ADyoCATE:-T There has been
but little rnlniall in this vicinity during
the past six weeks and in consequence
thereof all vegetables are whitening away.
Any amount Of rain now would not make
half crop OF corn. The hay crop ia
very short and pastures are almost desti-
tute Of grass, and many farmers are be-
ginning to feed their cattle. Vegetables
are very scarce and demand a high price,
Small grain is OF very good quality, but
the yield Is lighter than usual. Wheat
is worth 20 cents, oats ~ cents, corn 81
cents, potatoes $l.OO, onions $3.50 per
bushel, and all other vegetables In pro-
portion. ..l
Judge PETER, Of the Kansas Farmer,
addressed quite conCourse OF alliance
people and others at A and at o'clock p.
m. on the 25th, Had II not been for a
mistake in advertising, the gathering
would have been much larger Mr. Pef-
fer discussed the issues Of vital import
ance TO the masses Of people In a clear
and lhoffensive manner, demonstrating
the principles Of the alliance as fully as
the most fastldlous radical could require;
also the causes OF oppression and the
remedy OF relief. He advocates in strong
terms the advlsability and also the prac-
ticablity Of the scheme for the govern
ment TO loan money direct to the people
instead Of loaning through national
banks, and thus impoverlshing the Dor
rover and enriching the banker. His
theory meets with the concurrence OF all
alliance people and many others who are
not too radical TO accept any theory
which will relieve the toiler It being con-
trary to his party ideas. We are sorry to
state that there Is yet a few of this sort,
but hope that their better judgment will
finally prevail and that they will decide
on the side Of justice and home, against
monopoly and ruin. All farmers should
come together in unity for the advance
ment Of their common interests
We notice that some of the republican
papers censure Bro Baker, our candi-
date for Congress from the Sixth district,
because he does not make q great ado
and employ his valuable time in discuss
ing the tariff question wherever he goes.
Now, il should be understood that the
tariff question is a minor one at this
time, as the tariff duties imposed by the
government on foreign commodities do
not very materially affect the farmers Of
Kansas, There are other questions Of
far more Importance which must be kept
before the people by our candidates for
office. Bro. Baker is working In the in
terests Of his constituents, and will use
his best efforts to suppress the vices
which are debasing his brother farmers.
We do not care whether or not he frees
his mind in regard to the tariff, or free
trade, during this campaign, We have
implicit faith in his probltY, and our con
hdence is such that we believe he will
do nought against our best interests, and
when the proper time comes to act upon
the tariff question Bro. William Baker
can be relied upon to do his duty as laid
down by the alliance, and no amount Of
ill-gotten gold will allure him from his
conviction of right and truth. We can
rely upon him to strike the blow for ins-
tice and freedom, at the proper time, on

Speaking of Bachelors.

Here is something for the bache-
lors direct from the fountain-head
Of authority, the Woman's Cycle:
"AIl women are in league against
the charlottesville married women
from sympathy with their unmar-
ried sisters and the unmarried from
desire to lessen the number Of
spinsters. With this league against
him, offensive and defensive, the
unmarried man may find peace in
heaven, but he can scarce hope to
find happiness on cartll-this side
Of marriage. However, once mar
ried all the bachelors troubles are
over. He is no longer the subject
of interest or designing attention
except the attentions which proceed
from love.
"True, the bachelor becomes on
his marriage, if not an object Of
commisseration to the knowing
ones, an object Of comparative in
difference to all women but one;
but the superior love Of that ono
! atones for all, and his added dig
nifty and completeness as a man
and citizen make him wonder how
he previously existed as one-half
of pair Of scissors without the
othcr half"

How Pins Are Made,


In olden doys pins were valuable
articles in a lady's toilet box. They
were Of gold and silver, aud as
long and cumbersome as skewers.
In those days there was no qucs-
ton about :'1Vhcre do all the pins
go?' because they were too valua-
bic to lose. Nowadays, when we
can buy a hundred for cent, they
are SO little walked that millions
are lost every day. Not SO very
long ago it tool, twelve to fourteen
men to make pin-that is, there
were twelve to fourteen processes
in it's manufacture, each performed
separately and by different hand
Now single machine turns out a
stream of pins at the rate Of 200 a
minute.
The wire is prepared by drawing
it from a large coil on a revolving
drum through hole the size Of
the pin wanted. The coil, wound

M0r,,l,ine Route.

When Frank Scott, of Butte,
woke up on Saturday at Z o'clock
in room on the second floor of the
Garrison house, on the corner Of
Wyoming and Galena, he shook
his wife by the shoulder and told
her it was time to get up if they
were going to Missoula this morn
ing. 1t only took him a minute TO
discover that he had been lying in
bed with a corpse. His wife was
quite dead and there was white
froth on her lips. On the table
was some paper in which little
morphine remained still which
made evident the cause Of her
death. She was addicted to drink.

on another drum, is then suspended
at the end Of the machine.

On another drum, is then suspended
at the end Of the machine.
The wire passes into the machine
through hole and series Of iror
pegs, which keep it in place anc
streighten it. A pair of pinchers
moving back and forth, pull il
along, and thrust the end through
a hole in a small iron plate, on the
further side Of which little ham.
mer beats tattoo Oh the end oi
wire, and so forms the head OF
the pin.
Next a knife decends and cuts
off the pin to the proper length
The pin falls into a groove or slot
through which the head cannot
pass. and thus suspended so that
the lower or point end is exposed
to the action Of a cylindrical file,
which has both q revolving and
a lateral motion. BY the time
the pin has passed this file it has a
smoth, Sharp point, and is COM
plete pin so far as shape is con-
cerncd.
These processes are all performed
with such rapidity that the pins
fall in constant stream from the
end of the machine.
They are next put in quantities
into revolving barrels, which arc
turned till the nins are secured and
cleaned. Next they are boiled in
an acid in which a fine powder oi
tin has been put, and they emerge
from this bath white and shining
with their new tin coat. They arc
then dried in sawdust: again sha-
ken in barrels and busted.
The machine which sticks the
pins upon the papers on which
they ere sold is very ingenious and
simple in it's details, but too com
plicatcd for brief description. The
machine crimps the paper and
holds it while they are brought up
in long rows, a whole row being
stuck at one push of a lever.
