COUNTRY WEEKLY PAPERs-They
are important factors, not only in
the intelligence, but in the business
prosperity and general progress
of the respective communities where
they circulate. No matter how
humble the newspaper of town or
village may be, it is always worth
more than its cost to its business
community. 1t constitutes bond
of union and strengthens a com
munity of interest that cannot be
affected by the city papers. There
are items of personal or local inter
est transpiring every week that are
not sufficiently of general interest to
occupy space of journals of more ex-
tended circulation and influence,
but which, intelligently and Impair
TALLY reported, add interest to it's
columns, while as local advertising
medium its value cannot be meas
ured by the number of copies
issued, the presumption being that
it Is read by the most intelligent
and thrifty class within its baili-
wick. 1t is certainly to the inter
est of such a community to patron
ize their local papers literally and
thus move the publishers to still
greater enterprise in catering to the
common prosperity.

THE SOLDIERS FRIEND,

OF the one hundred and thirty-nine
impromptu speeches made by President
Harrison while on his recent trip across
the continent and return, not one was
delivered but was most happy in its ap-
propriateness to the occasion. But of all
the fitting responses not one compares
with his little talk to the G. A. r. boys
at Denver in grandeur of thought and
eloquence of sentiment. Here is what
he said:
Comrades of the Grand Army of the
Republic, survivors of the great war,
whose success preserved all that our
fathers had devised and established;
whose success brought back this flag in
honor and established it again, the I'M
disputed emblem of an indissoluble
union: TCheers God hath bountifully
heightened out your days, that you
might have some glimpse of the glory
that has come from the achievements in
which you bore an honorable part. But
only the vision Of the prophet
reaching out over centuries to
come, can catch the full glory of
what your deeds have wrought.
give you today most affectionate greet
ing. Cries of God bless you" give
you regretful goodbye.
May you hold in the community where
you live that respect and honor to which
You are entitled. Let no Grand Army
man ever dishonor in civil life that
noble record he made in the war.
ICheers. May every blessing follow
you; and, if it shall not be in Gods dis
pension to give you riches, at least COM
rades. you shall die with the glorious
satisfaction of having contributed TO the
greatest work that man ever wrought
for humanity and God; and wrapt in
the flag you followed, your comrades
VIII one by ore see that in honored
graves your bodies rest until resurrec-
ton. and that on each returning day of
decoration flowers are strewn upon your
graves"

PRESIDENT HARRIsON'S SPEECHES.

The presidents admirable speeches
will be powerful addition to the forces
which are working to disintegrate the
rock-bound fortress of prejudice, sec
tionalism. and old fogyism in which the
southerners have so long ensconced
themselves The National Tribune says:
To the portion which allow themselves
to reason, the presidents fitly-spoken
words We're seeds falling in fertile
ground, to terminate and bear rich fruit.
There was no partisanship In what he
said. 1t was everywhere an expression
of the best and highest Americanism-a
genuine desire for the greatest good of
the whole country, and the enunciation
of policy which must appeal to their
patriotism and common sense as the best
and most practical way of securing the
ends which they. in common with all
Americans, must desire. So long accus-
toned TO have their mental vision OBJ
scured by appeals to their passions and
preiudices, it must have been a startling
revelation 10 very many OF them TO have
the converse of their lifelong belief laid
down before them in a mastery way.
and the memorable logic of common
sense. Those OF them who have any dis
position to reason clearly must be doing
great deal of it since they listened TO
the presidents words.

Hutchins' and Henrie's testimony was

As against the Alliance members finding
that Henrie sin disguise delivered the
supposed package of dynamite, is the
testimony of employees of the Capital and

time. Henrie's alibi was complete, and
no evidence was produced to conflict

At MIDNIGHT.
BY JOHN JAMES INGALLS,

wandered a. midnight in the graveyard:
The smell OF damp grass WAS in my nostriis;
heard my heart throb in the awful silence
As headIong diver, plunging in the ocean.
Sees dlnliy gimmering through the green darkness
The swinging surges pulsating above him;
Sees the Shiny keels Of diligent vessels
With bubbling wakes OF ghostly foam in burrows,
And a duh shine of sails swollen by tempests;
Sees lidless eyed monsters leering past him.
And wrecks and drowned men constantly sinking,
While the mufied kneli Of the surf IS tolling;
So as heard the sad lapse of the mill stream.
Down, down. quickly my spirit descended
To the residence OF dead men and women
In unearthly sepuchral twilight
The grassy armament was visible
Flecked with white clouds OF motioniess daisies
The craggy roots of the headstones protruded
tncomfortaby from the low ceilings OF the
Iortuous obscure damp cavern.
Suddenly from ten thousand eyeless sockets
A mid but awful glare of light giowed bluely
Lighting the streets OF that benevolent city
A hospitable city. whose gates were always open;
With low priced tenements for Gods poor people;
h cheap resort Tor desolate age IN winter
The neghborhood was orderly and quiet
As from each coffin window skull was grinning
In Idle mockery Of life's foolish satire
There was wonderful sameness in costume
Worn by rich ladies and their poor servants,
And no bills presented to embarrassed husbands.
Side by side lay the spendthrift and the miser,
The maid and her rejected lover,
The prodigal and his unrelentlug father
Noises there were of feet in sad procession,
And CLEANS OF eyes with curious sadness,
Peering into the daf they or late must tenant
Ny SOUL moved with an irresistible impulse,
Like the thistiedown before the east wind,
Went through many anonymous avenues
heard a sound OF deep perpetual thunder,
Like lies flood tide throbbing in monotonous
pulses
Upon the shore that has no road or harbor.
Was it ! reality, or was it a vision merely
saw underground as my spirit descended into
The land OF the mole and the gopher

A Chicago woman discovered six

CHURCH UNITY.

70 the Eagle.
There is something radically wrong in
the formation of new church or political
organizations instead of reforming the
old. Il must come from the self shness
OF the leaders. II is one of the deplora-
bic blunders Of history, detrac;ing and
hindering the progress Of mankind in the
upward scale OF advancement as man
gradually progresses IN the knowledge
Of religion Or civil government the old
divisions, if there be any, ought TO be
blended and united instead of being
again divided. The same force exerted
in harmony with and for the old church
or party that Is subsequently used against
il through selhshneSs, rivalry and jeal-
ouSv Of both divisions would advance il,
whereas in division both are weakened.
There Is but one true religion and one
true principle in the government OF man
and every time you divide the church or
state YOU weaken Il.
Ii the church or states were one il
would be as much stronger Is there are
now divisions.
United we stand. divided we fall"

or government as il does 10 anything

Mr.. Edison occupied nearly an acre
with his exhibit at the Paris exposition.
As he wished to show at Chicago all that
he exhibited at Paris, and numerous
other things besides, he is DESTROYS of
being accorded greater space IN 1888.
The electrical exhibit is expected to be
the wonder of the exposition.
