The South Must be Democratic.

The Democratic party gained a
great victory last year in the various
Congressional elections. It will gain
another next year unless we have too
much third party talk. Every vote
gained in the South for the third
party is also gain for the Republi-
cans. The South should be nothing
but Democratic.-Ne,cbe'Ty Herald

A Believer in Small Fees.

Cyrus w. Field thinks fee should be in
exact proportion TO the services rendered
A friend of his tells the following story: II
was riding with Mr.. Field and he stopped
at wayside trough to give his horse a
drink. Twas about to jump out and loosen
the neck rein when Mr. Field beckoned to
ragged boy, who ran up and performed
the service, replacing the rein when the
horse had slaked his thirst.
Then Mr.. Field took off one Of his gloves
and brought out a handful of loose change,
which he extended to me. "Will You pick
out three pennies, if you pleased" he asked.
II never give more than that for a small
service. think the reckless way of throw
ing ten cents and quarter to poor boys is
harmful, as it leads them to expect more
than their work is worth, and they do not
value what they earn SO easily. A penny
for such service would pay the boy; then
why should l give him such large sunni"

Story of a contented Girl.

This story is told of an eastern king He
wanted wife, but he wanted one with q
contented disposition. He had been told
that a complaining woman was anything
but joy in the household. and he sought
to avoid marrying any such. He set out on
a journey through his kingdom, and trav-
eled far before he found the object of his
search. Finally he met humble peas
ants daughter who was said to be woman
entirely contented with her surroundings.
The king assured himself that she had
no complaint whatever to make concern
ing her lot in life, and at once proposed to
make her his bride, when she replied, II
am sorry to have to refuse the king my
hand, but since l am contented with my
present lot in life will not consent to
change it." And the king was compelled
to find some one tride less content.-Chi-

Big Belts Made of Paper.

The Sun calls attention to the paper belts
that have the reputation of being superior
in many respects to those of leather. These
belts are male from pure linen stock, and
are of any desired thickness, width or
length. having also driving power equal
to any other from an equal surface, and
while it is not claimed for them that they
are adapted TO all kinds of work, they are
found to serve well as straight driving
belts of not less than five inches in width
Where they have been tested side by side
with leather belts for strength and dura-
bility they are alleged to have proved
equally satisfactory, adhering very closely
to the pulley, generating no electricity
while running being also flexible and I'm

limits, though there is one place in which
they cannot De used, and that is where
they have to run in water, or where they

Good Roads For Farmer $ i.


1t is somewhat singular that in all the
numerous conventions of farmers, in
which almost every other subject on
earth and the waters beneath the earth
has been discussed, little if anything has
been said in regard to matter that is OF
vital importance to the prosperity of the
farmer good roads. Is has remained
for the bicycle riders of the country to
take up this matter and present it in its
true light. OF course bicyclists are inter-
ested in good roads. but in pamphlet
recently issued by Isaac B. Potter. en-
titled. The Gospel of Good Roads. il is
shown that good roads will benefit the
farmers more than any other class
of citizens. The business losses
Of every kind due to bad roads
in winter and spring especially,
and throughout the year are enor-
NOUS. 1t is but short time
since citizen of Indiana estimated
that bad roads cost the farmer SIS year
for each horse and mule in his service
In 1890 there were IS .544. 1854 horses and
mules in service on the farms Of this
country, and 36 $40 ,024 oxen snd other
draft animals, all valued at Sl.721 $780,
798. Every day that these animals are
idle on account of bad roads means an
enormous loss; every load that must be
hauled by two horses when but one
would be necessary il the roais were
good incurs loss. A loss of SIS year
for each horse and mule on the farms
means an aggregate loss of S24S. 172, $50
year, besides the wear and tear on wag-
ons and harness, which is almost half as
much. The farmers of the country are
complaining OF hard times. Can they
afford TO pocket this loss every Year,
1t is a fact, and any one can verify it,
that the farm products of this country are
moved off the farms at the expense of
about twice as much power as is actually
necessary. A team that will pull 5000
pounds easily over dirt road will pull
$500 pounds on good hard roads. such
as are to be found all over England.
F.ance and Germany and in q very few
places In some of our eastern states. 1t
will pay any farmer in Illinois to go to
Union county. New Jersey, look at the
rosds and thriving farms and villages,
and then find out that the increase in
land values brought about in Uuion
county alone would pay twice the cost of
every foot of stone road put down In the
whole state of New Jersey. Or they
might go TO Parke county, Indiana, in
which few years ago there was but one
mile of good road. and that built at pri-
vste expense as an argument in favor of
better roads. Now all over the country
there are splendid gravel pixies and roads.
and teams can pull as much on them in
winter as in summer.
Bad roads are tax on the fsrmer-a
heavy tax. Farmers can put stop to
this tax if they try. Their farms will be
worth more money. with less running ex
