AS TO INFLUENZA MfCRoBEs.-It
would seem that the Influenza mi.
crobes go about in vast swarms.
A cloud is seen at sea. 1t settles
down on ship, and as the cloud
is the habitat of these microbes, the
ship becomes infected. Warm
weather will not free lis from this
besl, but after having made itself
lively for about six weeks it will
gradually disappear. The scient-
isis tell us that every one ought 10
take about one grain of quinine
morning and evening while this
interesting creature is about. One
scientist gives this dose every day
to himself, his family, and his SER
wants. Although his nelghbors on
both sides have been down with
influenza, no one has taken il in
his house. For those who do not
like pills, there isl mixture sold
of orange qulnine, which is pleas
ant TO the taste. If the influenza,
Notwithstanding this regime, is
caught, then the patient should go
10 bed and take every hour a spoon
iul of ammoniacal quinine. Prob
ably he will send for doctor, but
if he does the doctor can do no
more for him than give him this
and tell him to remain in
bed.-LoRdon Truth.

Judge j. b. Chrisman, W no is Il
very plain spoken man, either on
or off The bench, has expressed his
opinion of the Louisiana lottery
while reservIng sentence upon
certain parties who plead guilty TO
selling lottery tickets, in the fol-
loving emphatic style:
"This organized political iniqui-
ty Is threatening to take possession
of the executive, legislative ard
judicial departments of The gov
ernment of that State. No such
vile insirumeniality for evil could
be licensed or would dare to pre-
cipiiate such a struggle in any 9th
er State of the Union. The result
is not because the people of that
State are worse than other com
munities, but because this poliIi-
cal villiany got a foOthold IN The
State when The carpet -baggers had
possession and has invaded with
its money aud inundated with
its thugs and overshadowe1 with
its influence men in every depart
ment ol the State government.
Let us take warning and not allow
it to gel foot hold here, and The
time will never come when this
people will fall so low in The scale
Of civilization to make such con-
test as is being waged in Louisiana
doubtful here"

THE NEGRO'S DESTINY.

llasiy generalization concerning
the future numerical strength of
The negro in this country. based on
his proporlionate high birlIr rate.
and the misleading reports of the
census of 1S7c, have done more
than anything else 10 render the
negro problem a question for man
ipuiaiion. Only two years ago the
presiding officer OF political con
vention stated that at no distant
future The colored population
would reach fifty millions. State
ments such as this are regarded
with different degrees Of satisiac
ton, and if true the negro would
himself soon Overrun this cont.
nent.
The cruGitv of statements such
as this, which can be used so dis
astrnusly for political purposes, is
shown by generl Francis A. Walk
er in the July Forum, in an article
Skelching the future of The negro,
based on the statistics Of the race
back 10 1910, when the slave trade
was abolished. At that time, or
from the census of 1910, he negro
numbered 100000, or 10 per cent.
Of the entire population. In The
recent census he is but 11.9 Of The
entire population, or, while the
white population has increased six
teen fold, the negro has increased
ten fold. Taking these statistics
by ten and twenty year periods
since 1S10,Gen. Walker shows that
the increase per cent. has declined
steadily, and asserts that in all
probability this steady reduction
in the negro'S relative importance
in the population will never be re-
versed. To recapitulatc, the negro
in 1870 was one-filih the popula-
tion; in 1S40, but one-sixth; in
1860, one-seventh in 1890, less
than one eighth. Industrial rea-
ons and natural Tenderness are
draining hlm off toward the low
lands Of the Gulf of Mexico, and
there his greatest rate of increase
will be felt, which in the nature of
things will be constantly decreas-
ing in lis relation to The total pop
ulation.
Facts such as these indicate that
the negro problem will become
less and less rather than more and
more political problem, and that
the solution may reasonably be
left 10 the operation of physlologi-
cal and economic laws.

Bra w LOVE.

He'd nothing bnt his violin,
I'd nothing but my song,
But we were we'd when skies were blue
And summer days were long.
And when we reste by the hedge
The robins came and told
How they had dared to WOO and win
While early spring was cold.
We somctms supped on dewbcrr'es
Or slept among the hay;
But oft the farmers wives at eve
Came ont to hear us play
The rare old Tunes, f4lo dear old tunes
We could not stalvc for long,
While my man had his violin,
And my sweet love song.
The world has aye gyne well with us,
Old man, since we were one;
Our homeless wandering down the lanes,
1t long ago was done.
Bnt those who wait for gold or gear,
For houses and for kline,
Till youths sweet spring grows brown and
And love and beauty tine,
Will never know the joy of hearts
That met Without fear,
When you had but your violin
And song, my dear.

To the questions how many tin
mines are there in America I
Where are they located? f? What is
their annual yield! About what
number Of hands do they employ
an exchange makes The following
reply: There are three or four
known workable deposiIs-one in
The Black Hills region in South
Dakota; one in Temascal, in San
Bernardino county, Cal, and one
at Savernake. Rockbridse county,
Va. The South Dakota ore beds
employ 300 men and there is a mil
at Glendale, but we have seen no
reports OF its sending tin regularly
to market. The Temascal mines
have very lately begun shipping;
we believe they have only shipped
about twenty tons so far. The
Virginia Tin mines are not yet pro-
ducIng. AS the industry is new
one there is no annual YIELD, nor
are there any statistics of the total
number of employees"

THE INDEPENDENT VoTE OF 1892.
Democratic success will der end, as
it did IN 1884, upon votes which are
not properly not Democratic. The
friends of moderate tariff are un-
questionably a larger body than
the advocates Of the Mckinley bill.
But they are not tradltionally
Democrats. Indeed, many of The
strongest opponents of high pro-
lection are independents in poll
tics, because party lines do not
now define political sympathies.
They may call themselves Repub-
lican with the protesting Republi-
cans in Pennsylvania, or Demo
Gratis as President Eliot and other
Massachusetts men call them
selves. But the former cling to
the traditions OF the party with
which lhey act, and the latter re-
pudiate them. The former dis
claim The present drift of the Re
publican party, but il is only the
present DRIFT of the Democratic
party which reconciles ihe latter
10 the name.-Harper's Weekly.

The censns statistics show that
of the l2,5O0,OOO families in the
United States 2,250,000 of them
have mortgages ON their homes.
That Is over a sixth of The homes
of the nation are bnrdened with
mortgages. The statistics do not
show how many of the families
own their homes. OF the 1880, 600
families no doubt several millions
are renters. There are 12, 100000
families in The nation, but not that
many who own the homes they oc-
cupy. However there is a snffi-
cheney Of mortgaged homes.
