ONE Of the things most people can
not understand, and one too that is
amongst the producing classes, is:
Why does butcher stock sell here fol
three cents pound, is shipped ia

pie at fifteen cents a pound? The
DEMOCRAT believes it will not be man,
until most of the people will have solved
that problem, and will change that or
der of things by placing men in the po-
sitions of law makers who will see to il
that such monopnlistic robbery may not
be carried on in this free American

a constitutional convention for the re-

Such convention ought certainly to be
held. and every voter who desires to see

already began to oppose the convention.

AS we never before heard of show by

vouch for its being any good. The idea
of naming play Uncle Tom 8 Cabin!''
Now if these fellows who are starting
out with some newfangled show which
they want To perpetrate upon All un-

Zeke's DugOut, or Aunt Susan's Hen

TINS is great country for weather.
Saturday evening between nine and
ten o'clock dozen or so kinds of
weather were experienced. First, the
wind was blowing steady from the
northeast and the air was full of damp
ness. Then it switched around to the
northwest and spit out fakes of crystal
snow. This lasted about ten minutes,
when sudden fop was made. aud a
regular infant tornado was hustling up
from the south, filling the air with sand
and other movable things. After
about fifteen minutes Of such Obstrep-
erous weather the wind slid half around
the compaf, ria the west, and came cold
and cutting from the northwest. AT
this time the stars we're shining bright

folds came the ruHbling Of distant
