Practical JOkers.

A number OF smart young men in
Stockton, California, induced a half
witted fellow to drink himself to death
by the exceedingly humorous ruse OF
asking him to drink seventeen times
In rapid succession and persuading
him to fll his glass each time. The
poor fool drank ten glasses OF whisky
and seven Of beer and then fell sense
less to the floor, dying a few hours
later. Each one OF these clever prac-
teal jokers should be whipped through
town at a carts tail and be given ten
years at hard labor.

HIS MIND,

The press all over the land is filled
with just and indignat criticisms upon
the course of Speaker Reed in deciding
that he can make a quorum whether the
roll call shows one or not. That the
Speaker did not always feel this way is
demonstrated by the st. Paul Globe,
which has the following,brief but pointed
article:
The last Congress in which the Re
publicans had a majority was elected in
1880. The present indications are that
ii will be another decade before the ex-
perience is repeated after the rule Of the
Reed now operating a similar House. A
little earlier than 1880 he was an active
minority man, and took occasion TO de-
fine his views On the main point he hal
under consideration Of late. He saidi

A noted artist is credited with saying
that no one woman that he has ever had
pose as a model for a nude figure was
perfect. The only way a perfect nude
figure is o~btainable is to have one woman
pose for the head, another for the feet,
another for the body and still another
for the limbs. Those who pose as nude
models are careful to conceal their iden.
tity, and consent from a desire to see
their outlines on canvas.

4 must tell you something OF our glori-
GUS victory in Butte county. We have
had hard fight, but all honor to the
alliance and our independent journals
we have now a complete and decisive
victory for our entire state and legisla-
tive ticket and only lost one man on
our county ticket. Although every art
known to the whips OF both old parties
was vigorously applied, the alliance men
stood the test like men worthy the name
OF American citizens. They marched up
to the work i'll almost solid orders and
voted for their principles despite the
free use OF bribes and threats, whisky
and cigars. The democrats put nc
ticket in the field, but organized into
clubs and selected their men from botf
parties and voted solid either one way
or the other as suited them, thus VIZ
lost one man, but we are happy.

President Polk of the national farmers
alliance is very jubilant over the result of
the elections. In an interview today he
said: :sThe democrats and republicans are
claiming everything just now, but when
they come to sift the chaff from the wheat
they will find that the farmers alliance
had something to do with electing fair
proportion of good men who will haye
seats in the next congress, Up to the
present time II 10 eertaip that congress will
contain thirty-sight straight ont alliance
men and there are twelve or fifteen more
from the south and northwest, the two sec.
tions in which most of our work wac done.
The alliance in Nebraska, Minnesota and
Iowa is not our organization and is not
amalgamaied with rs, but it made the
mefght and will join rs this winter.
Our alliance co-operated with them, and
we will cooperate with any farmers asso-
citation, and in little while we will have

Advertising.


Few merchants are good advertisers
and yet a successful study Of the art is
necessary to success in business in this
age Of close competition. How often
the printer in soliciting advertising is
met with the old story. Times are dull,
we are barely paying legitimate exv
penses and cannot afford to add to
them" Such merchants generally ex-
perience hard times. The live dealer
advertises most extensively when times
are dullest. To advertise nothing,
draws nothing. The wise advertiser
has special lines for all seasons. He is
not penny wise and pouni foolish. He
| is not afraid to advertise special prices
and he bucks his advertisement; thus
the people learn to place confidence IN
what he says and watch Tor his an
nouncements.

E After the fight and when It was under.

be bought cheap. II u not strangewhen
the people in our midst are bought ID
groups, that the legislature should be
considered purchaseable. IN factit has
been to often the case and there is little
doubt but much Of this kind Of work
was done last year. The delegation
that went to Pierre from this city to
defeat Moody met with proof OF this
thing. A representative, who apparent
" feared that be was gsttns left in the
deal, Was looking for the buyers and
boldly offered himself to the wrong
crowd. We have also the uncontra-
elicted assertion that the bankers asso-
cfation, for very small figure pur-
chased the defeat, in tho senate, 81 GER

While there p no denying tho deplorable

controlled than The rich. It's the prin-
|ciple Of the man rather than the size Of
his pocket book that bears on this ques-
taon. Hitis true, as il often asserted,
that farmers are more easily fooled and
controlled than other classes, the reason
is evident. The farmers generally
elected to the legislature through the old
parties are chosen by our local politi-
clans and not by the farmers them
selves, they are not genuine farmers,
but speculators or petty politicians, men
whom party leaders know can be
bought, if they are not already bought
before elected. 1t is this class OF farm
ers combined with our professional pol,
iticians who throw sops in the shape ol
questionable legislation to the laborlne
classes in hopes to thus hold their votes,
and then when it proves curse tits
called granger legislation. OF an entire.
ly different class are tho legislators
whom the farmers and laborers them
selves choose to serve them. They are
men who know what the people need
and whom the Doodle politicians will
find cannot be bought. At the same
date OF the Huron convention, the bank.
ers' association was in session in an.
other city. A message Of greeting was
introduced and endorsed by the alliance
convention amid loud applause and
sent by wire to the bankers association.
It read, "We send greeting to the Bank.

that this convention will SEQ to 1T that
