TO do with far more fundamental
things than the mere attempt 10 get
rid Of certain class Of dealers.
II is Of great importance, chat as
rapidly as possible, all sub-alliances
should become informed OF the full
scope and temper OF the great move
ment Of which they are a part Ow-
ing TO the fact that the Grange move
mont did so largely emphasize the
waste and the expense Of mercantile
methods, and sought TO relieve them
solves by the establishment Of their
own supply storesi thus mourning
VERY naturally the i'll will of the
merchants, il is all the more impor-
tant that there should be an early
understanding, that such measures
will not be repeated.
Let us SEQ what the result would
be Of an attempt TO start local alliance
stores, and also why it would be un-
wise TO pursue such a course
The result Of course would be,
first, the hostility Of the local mer-
chants and grocers men never take
Il kindly to be deprived Of their
means Of getting bread and butter for
their wives and little ones. Then
there would come the ninety-nine
failures out Of every hundred Of the
stores. For the farmer, IL he is any
sort OF n success as a farmer, has Civ.
on 30 much of his time TO his busi-
ness that he has had no time to learn
how to successfully manage NOR
camille business. The two businesses
are as little alike as one can possibly
imagine, and each requires separate
training. Following the failures,
would como loss, debt and discour-
agement, and a relapse into a condi-
tion worse than before the effort
But by far the largest reason for
the unwisdom Of such attempts rests
upon the nature Of Che measures
which the farmers and laborers of
America must press 10 successful is-
sue, il they would effect any radical
cure Of the depression Of agriculture
and the industries.
These changes which relate 10 f.
nance, TO transportation, and other
essential matters, are nearly all de-
pendent up Legislation, and this Leg
islation cannot be had without the
cooperation Of the tradesmon and
their sympathizers.
Now while il is true that all legis-
lation sought by the farmers would
eventually benefit the merchants also,
yet it would be by no means easy 10
secure their cooperation, after hav-
ing estrangod and angered them by
injuring their business.
Every wise alliance man will be
ready TO assure the business men OF
tho towns and villages, that our
movement is not hostile to his inter
est. And every iar-gghted sub-alli-
ance will think twice before under

Good Advice.

New York Sun Independent, Demo
crat and all sorts) gives the following
sensible advice with reference to the
conduct of the campaign:
Don't talk politics in loud tone of
voice in public places.
Don't get red and apoplectic over the
virtues OF your candidate or the failing
of one OIL the other side.
Don't abuse your opponent when you
get to discussing politics with him.
Don't fight him-particularly if h
looks able to lick you.
Don't think it necessary to hold up a
bar every night in your consideration
of the affairs of the nation. You don't

Don't kill the man who goes about
taking votes on the cars. Pity and spare
him. lie may vote for your man.
Don't bet. Give your wife the money
you think you can afford for wagers. ana
then you will be sure not to lose it.
There is only one thing to be added
to tins. That is to vote for the best
men, and those who you conscientiously
think will work for the interests of
your town, irrespective of party.

Evergreen Nurseries

We have been favored with the Cata-
logue of these Nurseries. 1t is the larg-
est and most complete list of Forest
Trees, Evergreens and Ornamental
Trees, ever issued in this country.
Their assortment of trees suited to Tree
Claims and Culture is by far the largest
we have ever seen, and on many things
their prices are much below any others.
They are making a speciality of Sugar
Maple and Yellow Cottonwood for this
purpose. and claim to be able to furnish
them in unlimited quantities. These
nurseries were established twenty years
ago, without dollar capital, and have
grown to mammoth proportions, which
result could not have been realized ex-
cept by fair and honorable dealing.
Every man wanting Trees should adj
dress postal card to Evergreen MUIR
series" Evergreen, Door County, Wis,
and ask for their Catalogue.

AN EXTRAORDINARY WILL.
How Polish Gentleman Prolonged the
Suspense Of His Heirs.

Suspense of His Heirs.
Hope deferred maketh the heart sick;
and rich men we'll stricken in years so
often cause during their lives the fond
est hopes of their prospective heirs to
be indefinitely deferred, that there is
positively no excuse for their continu-
ing to do so after death, like late in
habitant of Warsaw, NJ. S. This
gentleman died six years ago He had
cOnfded his last will and testament to
M. B, his executor, at whose house
the friends and relatives gathered to-
gether after the funeral to learn their
fate; but they only heard the inscrip-
ton on the envelope read, which was to
the effect that the seal was to be broken
on that day twelve-month. This was
sad news to many Of them whose cred
itors were FESTIVE and threatening; but
possessing their souls, their interjec-
tons and I'D ectives in patience and in
silence, they went their several ways,
In 1885 they we're all punctually at the
trysting place once more. Breathless
was the silen0e-like unto that de-
scribed in the second book of the Eneid,
when Venus son was about to tell
silence and the seal solemnly and ten
derby, and found inside Of the en-
velope a somewhat smaller Enclosure
sealed with an identical seal, and
bearing an identical superscription:
This seal is to be broken this day
twelVemonth; not before" II Is 10 be
hoped that the spirit of that departed
citizen, if lowering at ell near the spot,
was not within earshot of the uneourtly
calculations which that announcement
ELECTED, as the disappointed audience
rose up and Dispersed; nor was the dis
covery of the year following of a nature
to soothe the angry feelings of the inn
| patient relatives, who met once more un-
der NJ. BIS hOspitable roof. Briefly,
year after year, the kith and kin of that
rich man gathered together and quoted
scripture at the practical joker of the
other world, heartily wishing him back
again in this one for the noAee.
The will proved to have seven seals,
the last of which was broken few days
ago, when it was found that the rich
mans property was divided into four
] equal parts, one of which was to be
equally distributed between bis nieces
and nepheWs, another vas left to the
| children of former wet nurse, a LII .rd
was given TO his friend and executor,
NJ. B, and the fourth was directed
to be invested till the year 1910, when
! it is to be handed over to that one of the
nephews who is blessed with the most
| numerous progeny.-St. Petersburg Cor.

Flnely-RaIanced Doors.

The Bank of England's doors are now
so finely balanced that the clerk, by
pressing a knob under his desk, can
close the outer doors instantly, and they
can not be opened again except by spe-
cial process. This is done to prevent
the daring and ingenious unemployed
of the great metropolis from robbing
this famous institution. The bullion
departments of this and other great
English banking establishments are
nightly submerged in several feet of
water by the action of the machinery.
in some of the London banks the bull
ion departments are connected with the
managers leeping-roUns and an en-
trance can not be affected without
setting off an alarm near that persons
head If dishonest official, during
either day or night, should take even
as much as one from pile of thou
sand sovereigns the whole pile would
instantly sink and pool of wateF take
its place, besides letting every person
in the establishment know of the theft.

THE TEXAN COWBOY.
He Is Bold. Fearless and Generous, with
Nothing Small About Him.

He Is Bold. Fearless and Generous, with
Nothing Small About Him.
Cowboy life has in the last few years
lost much of its roughness. The cattle
barons have discharged most of the men
who drank, and have frowned so per-
sistently upon gambling that little of it
is done. Cards and whisky boing put
away, there is small temptation TO dis
orderly conduct; so it is only when they
roach some large city, and are not on
duty, that they indulge in genuine
spree. On the ranches kept under fence
they have little to do when not on the
drive or in brand ing time, the cattle
being all safely inclosed. But they
must take their turns at line
riding, which means a close in
spection Of the fences, and the
repair of all breaks and damages.
Where night oyertakes them, there
they sleep, stalking their horses, and
rolling themselves in their blankets.
These rides OF inspection take days to
accomplish, for there are ranches in
Texas which extend in a straight line
over soventy-five miles. Those ranches
which are not kept under fence neccs-
states more work, The boys must
then keep their cattle in sight, and
while allowing them to Craze in every
direction, must see that none in tho
many thousands stray beyond the limits
OF tbeir own particular pastures. They
go then in parties, scattering over
the territory, for thoy must cover hun
dreis of thousands OF acres in q day.
1t is not life Of hardship, and pays
well enough. Every thing is fuFRished
TO them free and Of tho very best, ana
they are paid besides thirty dollars per
month. Each party stays our from two
90 three weeks at time; but they take
with them tho finest Of camp wagons
with beds and bedding, cooking uten-
sis, the best OF groceries Of all kinds,
and as excellent a cook as money can
employ. Tho prairios are full Of game,
and their rifles are ever handy. The
life is free, fascinating, and peculiarly
healthy.
These men are exceedingly chivalrous
20 all women; this seems TO be a trait
born in them, as much a part of their
moral nature as it is OF their physical
tohave small feet. for II is seldom that a
genuine Texas cowboy can be found who
has not the distinguishing mark Of
a handsome foot, and his boots are t.
him Ali that the sombrero lie TO Mex
lean. He will deny himself many
pleasures. he will go without a coat
and be seen in most dilapidated attire,
but his boots mist be Of the best and
most beautiful make that tho country
can afford; high in heel aud curved Of
instep, a fine upper and thin sole, fitting
like glove, and showing the handsome
foot to perfection.
Take tho cowboys as class, they arg
bold. fearless and generous. q warmi
hearted and manly set with nothing
small. vicious nor mean about them,
and Texas need not be ashamed ofst The
brave and skillful riders who traverse
the length and breadth Of her expansive
prairies. Leo G. Hardy, in HarpsF'a
