A Scared Editor,

A rugged farmer stalked into the sanctum
with big whip under his arm.
''Be you the e6itor?" he asked. II am"
was the half apprehensive reply.
Here's two dollars send me your paper,

"You see,n he went on, ''our daughter
was sick and liked to die; she dropped and
grew weak and pale, had headaches, no ap-
petite, back ached, feet aud hands like ice,
couldn't sleep, hacked with cough, and we
thought she had consumption No medl-
elmo helped her till we tried that DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription mentioned in
your paper, when she began to mend in no
lime, and is now well and handsome as a
rose. Put me down as life subscriber"
Now the editor is looking for another
scare. The medicine has cured scores af-

The action Of the League of American
Wheelmen in passing the resolution pro-
hibiting cyclists from receiving expenses
from athletic clubs of which they may be

"The Blupder OF q Racing Board-A small
cloud, no larger than the traditional mans

scrutiny on the cycling horizon. That the

Everybody is sorry that the Baltimore
Club is In the Atlantic Association, and yet
few would have II return to the American
Association and pass once more under
the dominion of mau like Won der Ahe,n
says the Baltimore Stm.
The New York Press sizes the League
situation up tersely as follows. "Long-
headed Mr.. Brush evidently holds the key
TO the baseball situation. The father OF
the classification rule aud incidentally the
father OF the Brotherhood insurrection,
docs not mean to get left"
A. G. spaldipg takes this view of the re.
bcllion: "This Thing had to come. II was
only question Of time. You know no
man can start up business and make a
success Of IL without having his employees
lake 1t into their heads, at some time or
other, to run things for him. We've just

In discussing the political situation
the Kenslngton. Mirror, which is for
McNall for Congress, says: Gas we
have remarked before, the Hanback,
campaign IS being run and managed
not by the friends of Hanback, but by
the enemies of somebody else. In
Phillips county BIcNay was a strong
Turner man until another man was
appointed postmaster. and then Mac
discovered that Turner was not the
man. = = In Phillips county every
indication is that Bissell will get the
delegation and they are a set of min
compoops if they don't give 1t to him.
The county ought to get a black eye
for good if it don't stand up for It's
own home candidate. And so our
county will doubtless elect delegates
favorable to McNall, and if we fail to
! do it we shall be laughed at for lot
of greenies who are not worthy to be
represented at all Hanback's back
ers are making a great ado about his
being such a friend to the soldier.
AS if he Is the only candidate who is
! friendly to the soldier! He has writ
ten a great many letters, we are told,
to people in Smith county about his
candidacy, but not one to any man
who has ever smelIed rebel powder
/ He visited Smith Centre In the inter
/ est of his candidacy, but did not call
upon a single veteran, we are reliably
informed, but put in his time hob
nobbing with a little squirt who has
come out IN his paper against the
Ingalls, service pension bill. Not one
| genuine republican paper in this coun-
/ 6y is for Hanback,, and not one demo
cratic or Union labor paper IN this
district, but what is for him. Why is
this so? Because they think they
can easily beat him on the record he
made while in Congress. Personally
we like Hanback,, but we are Iu -suad-
ed that it would be the greatest mis-
take this district ever made to nomi-
nate him, and the most unfortunate
thing that could happen Hanback,
himself to be nominated or elected as
as a member of Congress. Some
churches have a very wise probation

only we're these two agencies need
ed. but there was also needed
paper money to the maximum amount
outstanding at any time. The busl-
ness of the country was languishing.
New enterprises were withheld, old
enterprises were struggling to keep
on their feet, and there. was dread
and terror and apprehension, where
there ought to be hopefulness, help
fitness and enterprise That con
dition of things would continue IN
til the remedy was attained: and that
remedy. could only come by Iegisla-
tiOn; because legislation combined
with executive action had brought
the country to where it was now.
Congress would legisIate some day
on the silver question; but 10 one
knew when and no one knew how.
Whatever was done would result in a
great addition to the money of the
country; but this measure of his, Tor
something like it, would give an ad-
dition at once, and the money could
be disbursed within sixty days. He
had ventured thus publicly and thus
briefly to call the matter to the at
tention Of the finance committee;
and he hoped that it would report
this bill or something like it after its
next meeting. He did not care
whether the committee reported it
favorably or adversely so long as the
senate would have a chance to vote
on the retention of that large sum Of
money in the treasury for no useful
/ purpose.
The bill was referred to the finance
! committee.

The senate and house republican
committees on the silver question
were in joint session two hours Tues
day morning. Very radical differ
enees were disclosed by the discus
sion, but an earnest purpose was
shown to harmonic the differences
if possible. One of the chief points
upon which the committees could not
agree was the proposed increase OF
national bank circulation. Such a
proposition, it is said, could not Sc
cure majority vote IN the house. Tt
was finally decided to commit the
subject to a subcommittee of five
senators and five representatives, who

From the Leon Indicator.
Hogs are worth fifty cents per
hundred more than they were at the
beginning of the year.
Cattle have advanced from fifty
cents to one dollar per hundred and
young cattle are in better demand
than for three years.
Sheep are higher.
Hogs have advanced from fifteen
to twenty-five per cent.
Corn is steadily advancing. Wheat
also, is advancing and the wheat and
Oat crops are in excellent condition.
The ground is in excellent condi-
ton and the farmers are pushing
their spring work with unusual vigor.
The fruit prospects are excellent.
Congress is getting down to work
in good shape, and will undoubtedly
pass an antitrust bill that will bene-
fit the masses.
More mortgages are being paid of
than ever before, and comparatively
few men are being squeezed by more
than the legal rate of interest. By
these, and other signs, are future
prospects greatly frightened.
