1t requires only a few minutes

nothing else, to rub off the
stove. When used first on a
newly BACKED stove the cloth
becomes filled with the surplus
polish, which rubs off so easily,
and it is then ready to impart a
glcss whenever it is needed.
Another plan is to use old
newspapers to rub off the stove,
instead Of a brush. In mixing
stove polish use vinegar and a
teaspoonful of sugar. Strong
soap.suds are recommended for
the same purpose. Ifit is used

course you do. You pay for it
promptly in advance with good
hard cash every year or ofteper.
That is dollar given to the paper
"A donation, as it were-and YOU
are . stockholder to that amount.
of course it is a donation. Every
one who knows anything
knows that it costs moth.
ing to publish paper, and if pub
fishers were more generous and free
er hearted, and not so penurious and
selfish they would send You the pa
per from yeas-lo-year free, just for
the matter Of your friendship, in.
fnence and the importance of the
thing.
Having thus donated freely and
frequently to the paper, and, there
by become a stakeholder, it be-
comes, by SIMPLE parity Of reason
ing, your indisputable prcrosative
to dictate what shall or shall
not b. published. The pub
usher who neglects to carefully con-
suit your opinion on all manuscript
is derelict in duty and wanting in
proper courtesy. He needs a good
lesson and you should teach him
one. Such a publisher is ever and
anon brought to his proper focus by
just saying, "you may stop my pa.
per-" Of course that squelches him
and he is at his ropes end. He can
not exist any longer and must give
up the business. He can not pub
lish the paper after that sentence
has been passed upon him. AS Sam
Jones says, at busts the bizncss."
To be sure 1t seems little severe
to thus "bust the bizness," without
timely warning, but you are like
all good men, and sometimes LIT
your risibilities elope with your
judgement, and are not to blame for
thus 'bust'n the bizness." Besides,
it is no matter for the unruly pub
fisher. lie should have been more
subject and humber. lie ought to
have more sense than to try to run
paper to suit himself and without
your advice and patronage. No
publisher ever amounted to much
who has attempted it, and none ev-
er will. The idea of publisher
thinking and acting for himself is
nothing but the rankest kind Of
self-concelt and every whit of it
ought to be squeezed out of him.
He has no more right to exercise an
opinion of his own than he has to
takes some mans horse. He should
only have the opinion of those who
take his sheet. If he wants an
opinion it is his duty to 60 to them
tor one. A successful publisher al
ways does this and never publishes
anything that does not just exactly
suit every one who takes his
poor paper. A publisher has no
more use for an opinion of his own
than hog has for hairbrush, and
it is only a big-headed, egotlstical
one who will have one of his own.
There is no medicine which takes
the conceit out of such pompous
publishers like that of ''stop my pa
per" coming from man Of great
Importance. Publishers who insist on
having opinions of their own are
fast passing away, and before many
cycles of Old Father Time they
will have been gathered into the
confused realms of the long forgot
ten, and this big, old mundane
sphere which Noah once discovered
will be blest by their docile and
ductile successors, who will spurn

| "A country newspaper is getting
down to very small and childisl
matters when it "jumps on" con
temporaries, without cause, for some
slight false syntax.
The Charleston Democrat went
INTO ecstasies last week over tn,
discovery that the Press had, in q
single instance, used a plural, in.
stead of a singular, pronoun-unes,
tlonably wrong. The party who
writes copy for the Press is com.
pellcd to do so in hurry, rs he has
every kind of work to do that is
done in printing-oifice-from get.
ting up copy to sweeping, and some
questionable mistake is certainly
eNcusable by all, except by those
who only know enough to make
fools of them.
Let us look & little further: The
Charleston Democrat is owned bv a
company-good men-men who
nave plenty of time to carefully
compose and correct the copy which
they furnish the Democrat. The
lawyer, the doctor and the mer-
chant each has the quiet of his Office
and his own time to prepare copy
for his organ. How different from
the constrained condition of the
PRESS Office. Mistakes should be
very rare in the Company Democrat
If 1t sets itself up rs q critic. Yet, in
the same paragraph III which it crit
icizes the PRESS, the G. D. uses the
sentence, 'Ihe convention at Which
the resolution WAS passed WAS con-
posed LARGE Of f%rme.a." In an-
other column the c. y. has It, -
race was then arranged between
HE and Joe Shoiby's .Mee-horsa."
These errors, SO glaring and egre.
glous, are only two, the like Of which
appears in great numbers IN every
issue of the Company Democrat,
and which any Fourth Reader class
in BoIlinger County would blush to
write, Stick pin here, Dr., or
Atty.
But this article would fail in its
purpose were it to not let all its
readers into the secret which caus-
ed the Company Democrat to paw
the ground and larrup the alr with
Its tail while believing at the
PRESS. 1t is this: The captain of
the Company has for sometime Lad
a bee in his bonnet which buzzes
over quite a number of counties
and which had intended to lead a
swarm when the clover blossomcd,
but the imprudent Press outlined
the course to be taken so correctly.
and at such time, that the said
bee beat hasty retreat and folded
its busy, buzzing wings. This ac-
tion Of the Press has never been
forgiven, and the Company Demo.
crat has ever since been squealing
like pig in a fence. To be sure
such voclferations only amuse the
PRESS and this notice of the G. D.
will swell it up with self-impor-
tance until it will strut about like a
crout-fed fec. The G. DIS idiosvn-
crasies are every day weakening its
captains future prospects.
The condescension of the PRESS
to thus notice the boo-hooes of the
Company Democrat is only for the
good of the c. DIS captain. In
conclusion the PRESS adjures the
gentlemen who write the editorials
for their organ to refrain from hid
ing behind a big-mouthed boy who
has had his head turned by being
permitted to retain an advanced
'slt" longer than ever before.

A MINE OF GARNETS,
Extensive Lodges of This Stone Located
Near Fort Wrangell.

Extensive Lodges of This Stone Located
Near Fort Wrangell.
The extensive garnet lodges at Fort
Wrangell are an inexhaustible source Of
beautiful and ornamental curiosities. The
cropping of the lodges is about ten feet
wide, standing perpendicularly and run
ming northeast and southwest several
miles in length; the depth Of it no man
has ever found out. The rock is of a
mioa slate formation and contains from
two to four dozen garnets to the cubic
foot. The gems are regular polygons,
beautiful in color, and, when fresh from
the mines, have dashing and brilliant
luster, but when exposed for a time they
become dull and Opaque. The crystal
varies In dimensions from the size of q
pea to that Of hens egg, and to the
novice are quito fascinating and have
the appearance Of much value for orna-
mental and other purposes.
The lapidaries, however, have failed
to utilize them for any purpose what
ever, except as curio and to demon
strate the certainty of tho unerrinp law
of nature which governs every phe-
nomenon. Every plane of the polygon is
OF the same form, every angle is of the
same degree, and every gem is the
equal and like of its fellow. The min
ing and the shipment Of this rock has
become quite n business. 1t is worth
twenty dollars per ton on the wharf at
Fort Wrangell. and Is shipped to all
parts Of the country to fill the cabinets
of the wealthy aud the collections in
public institutions. - Detroit Free Press.
