TALMAGE ON SCANDALS.

"The largest school in the world said
he, "is not to be found in this city, nor
in any city. The school of scandal thrives
the world over. Some are yet freshmen
in II others are seniors, about to gradu-
ate, while many have already taken out
their diplomas, adorned with the black
seal of the devil. and are to-day profess
ing with remarkable success.
There are scandals todav, about lawyers
merchants. physicians, everybody. But
all these wrongs will in time be righted.
What position shall good men take as to
attacks upon their characters / would
reject them oil until the guilt is proven.
I will believe nothing against anybody
until the wrong is proven. II is a great
art TO think well rather than evil Of any
one. but It is as easy for some people to
attack character as il is for hound to
chase hare. A he, the biggest, most
uncouth, filthiest, most abominable
creature extant, stalks unrestrained at all
times all over this broad land. Its tooth
knocks out the tooth of time, and for
longevity it has no equal. It travels SO
fast that 10, 100000 Of people see 1t on the
same morning; 1t is ubiquitous. This
parasite ihrives chiefly in small villages,
though cities are not exempt from it.
And the people who are its slaves are SO
small that even the fine tooth Of the law
can not flnd them"

COUNTY FAIR,

And now with the 4th safely passed,
and perhaps good crop IN sight, how
about the fair Is there any celebration
or gathering OF as much benefit alike to
the business men of Miller and people of
the county rs the Hand County Fair 2 We
believe not-in fact during the agricultur-
al society's existence, this has never been
disputed. Every man who lives In Miller
is benefited by fair, Notwithstanding
the fact that some esch year insist they
are not. The fair is absolutely certain
to bring from 81 900 to $4,000 into the
town in one way and another. While
every man may not make money on fair
days, nevertheless this money enters the
business channels and eirculates about
the entire town, to the hotel people, the
merchant, the professional man, the
mechanic, the laborer. OF course there
are many other benefits besides the mere
financial result, but that always seems to
be the motive power necessary to start
the machinery of ENTERPRISE So we be-
leye that every man obtaining his living
within the incorporation of Miller is di.
rectly interested to such extent that he
can afford TO devote some time and con-
tribute some money to make the county
fair what 1t should be under harmonious.
liberal and energetic action.
The people of Hand county are largely
interested in this manner and method of
gathering together for friendly greeting
and comparison of products raised on the
farm, but the main work incident to the
fair must be performed by the citizens of
Miller, every one of whom by virtue Of
the inherent responsil ility Of citizenship,
owes some thought and effort to the en-
terprises that benefit the town he claims
his home.
In the past these duties have been
shirked by several, who apparently pre-
ferred to subsist in the shadow of other
peoples enterprise, while portion of
the citizens succeeded by contributing
time and money to the fair. As Miller
las been this was possible. As Miller is.

not care to do share Of the work nee.
essary, should freely contribute the equiv
alent in cash,
The PRESS hopes that the leading bust
ness men will step forward and make an
energetic effort to haye fair, because we
believe it is of more direct benefit to the
town and county than any other gather
ing of the year.

ANCIENT HISTORY.

One year ago tomorrow was a time
marker. July 10th the atmosphere be.
came so hot in Hand county that q roar of
anguish went up from the wheat and peo-
pie alike. We believe there was also a re-
publican county convention held in St.
Lawrence that day, where it is said the
atmosphere was even warmer than that
which cooked the wheat We still insist
the convention was held "too early" but
as we couldn't help 1t" there is no reason
why Baldwin and Keeler should be es-
tranged because Keeler canvassed the
county against Baldwin with the latter :
horse.
