The Smallest Flowering Plant.

The smallest towering plant, accord,
ing to London Tid-Bits, Is wolffla
microscopica, a native OF India. It
belongs to the duck-weed family. II is
almost microscopic in size, destitute Of
proper stem, leaves and roots, but hav-
ing these organs merged in one, form
ing frond. There is prolongation Of
the lower surface, tho purpose OF which
seems to be to enable the plant to float
upright in the water. The fronds
multiply by sending out other fronds
from q slit or cavity and with such
rapidity does this take place that few
days often suffice to produce from q
few individuals enough similar ones to
cover many square rods Of pond sur.
face with the minute green granules.
Small as these plants are they bca :
flowers. Two are produced on plant,
each Of them very simple, one OF q
single stamen and tho other OF q single
pistil, both Of which burst through the
upper surface Of the frond.

Going to see the Goat.

Before the west bound freight train
pulled out last Thursday afternoon q
large crowd assembled on the Depot
platform, which on inquiry we learn
ed was q delegation Of twenty-five or
twenty-six Masons going to visit
Howard Lodge A. F. A. NJ. at Lime
Springs, in an acceptance of an in
vitation extended to them q short
time before. They got on the train,
filling all the reserved seats in the
handsome drawing room car attached
to the rear end of the train. After
the engineer and train hands had
enjoYed themselves to their hearts
content racing up and down the
several sidetracks they hitched on
to the other end of the train and
started for Lime Springs.
The Conductor came in pretty
soon and looked the crowd over and
very politely enquired for our guard.
Ian. bro. H. w. Young was pointed
out to him as the Grand Mogul who
had US in charge, and was responsible
for the necessary little piece of paste
board emitting us to ride on his ex.
press train. After passing through
the sublime, grand and magnificent
town of Bonair we arrived at our
destination where we dispersed, some
going to the Central House and
others elsewhere for supper.
At about 7:3O we repaired to the
Lodge room Of Howard Lodge, and
were very kindly invited to take
charge of the proceedings for the
evening.
Bro. L. E. A. Ling p. NJ. with p
w. NJ, G.. NJ. Van Leuven and w. NJ
Thos. Gates on his right and lef,
called the lodge to order. Other Off
cial positions being occupied by Off
GERS of Cresco Lodge.
Bro. Frank Burnes was introduced
and allowed to interview the goat, al
which said interview he was raised tt
the sublime degree Of a master Ma
son by his goatship.
We were then informed that it wa
the will and pleasure of Howard
Lodge that VIC return to the Contra
House and there consume the ban
uuet which we would there find
spread on the tables. Agreeably to
said invitation we returned to the
Central House and did ample justice
to the numerous good things which
we found in the dining room.
After which we returned to the
Office, smoked and enjoyed ourselves
as best We could while waiting for the
train.
At about train time we wendell oul
way to the depot escorted by seyera
members OF Howard Lodge.
The train finally arrived, we jump
sd aboard and were soon landed il
Cresco, all well pleased with thu
evenings work aud the reception
given them by Howard Lodge.

Howard Center Correspondence.

Having leisure last Saturday, after
. steady travelling OF three months,
! thought would spend the time in
your thriving little city, which all
must admit IL more than holding it's
own for business and improvements,
and which we all hope will always
continue, but in visiting many Of our
stores and Farmers Alliance, and
talking with friends, farmers and
merchants, find that very queer
feeling exists and one which If kept
up, will add no good, either to Cresco
or surrounding country. Now broth.
er farmers, assure you the more
evenly we and the merchants of Ores.
co pull together, the better it will be
for all concerned. We cannot get
along without the friends we have in
Cresco, one iota better than they can
get along without US, SO let us oil pull
together. ] am a true friend OF the
Farmers Alliance movement in every
respect, when we can make a move
in the right direction, but not at the
puny, weak merchants OF Cresco.
There Is no monopoly there, they
have nothing to do with our three
dollars . hundred for pork, or our low
price for beef. Let us not stop at
Cresco, but 60 on to Chicago and
then to Wall Street, N. Y, and see
how the gambling on the produce of
this country is carried on, and we
will shake hands with our Cresco
merchants and say come all hands,
let us get up petitions and send to
Washington which will represent our
cause, as did the farmers of kansa s
about six feet long, boots at one end
and brains at the other.
/ have farined in Howard Center
township since 1870, and have seen
some Of the ups and downs, and l
assure you. we will gain nothing for
the Farmers Alliance movement, If
we pull ourselves into little mis-
understanding with the merchants
and business men of Cresco, who
stood by US through thick and thin.
Let us, or great many of us, at
least, remember the fact that they
carried us over safely. From farmer
for the right and only cause that will
ever help us out of the grasp of mo-
nopoly. FARMER.

Then l looked at him rather closely

improving under the skillful treat
ment of DR.. Freemire.
Oscar Blade, who went to Rose
land, ILL.,, with his parents last fall,
has returned to Chester, and he
thinks that Iowa and Howard Coun-
ty is good enough for him. So think
most of the people who leave Howard
County to better their condition. All
are glad to return where there is
plenty and to spare. We are ready
to welcome the prodigals back even if
we do have the best robe to put upon
them, or the fatted calf to kill.
1t looks to a man at a distance that
the resolutions passed by some of our
alliance brethren and published in
the county papers that they will not
purchase any goods of the Cresco
Merchants. whom they claim used
their influence with the jobbers not
to sell any goods to the new Alliance
store, smacks largely Of boy
cotting and is forbidden by our courts
and is classed as misdeMeanors and
punishable as such under the law.
Our friends have legal right to start
as many stores as they please but
they have no legal or moral right to
dictate to any man or set of men
where they shall purchase their goods
and merchandise. We say that it is
a good policy to stand by the men
who have helped to build up our
county and have their money invest
ed in the county. We concede that
men and community have a legal
right to associate themselves together
for their protection: but have no
legal right to use their influence to
the injury of others, Competition is
the life of trade, and there it should
rest. MULTUM IN PARyO.

Family In This Way.
One OF the foremost women artists Of
New York Is emphatic in insisting that
majority of studio models are modest,
clever women, says writer In the II
Illustrated American. She says the ordi-
nary price paid is one dollar morning,
or thirty-thrce and one-half cents an
hour, posing thirty end resting fifteen
minutes. It is tremendously trying
work, necessitating considerable train
ing to make subject available for an
artists purposes. Prettiness OF form
and feature are strong recommended
tions to favor, but women of heroic
mold with characteristic and marked
faces are PRICED above beauties. and are
often able to command very high rates.
As an instance of the possibility Of the
profession, she told Of two little Italian
boys, brothers, who support family Of
nine members solely with money carne d
in this way. They are charmingly
handsome chaps, with lustrous south
ern eyes. They sit for pictures Of fruit
vendors, acolytes, boy princes, etc. So

don common to their race, both parents
have resigned labor, and with Eve other
children subsist upon the studio profits
of their two eldest sons.

Why the Alliance?

Confronted by q condition as uni
versal as civilization, and as sweep
ing in its line of disaster as the in
dustries of the world. called into
existence the farmers alliance ant
industrial union. Its purpose like
that of all labor organizations is tx
find and apply n remedy. It's frs
means to an end is to educate ant
elevate those upon whom it must de
pend for results. When it is awaken
ing thought and arousing to action
along important lines, it is doing
valuable and effective work. Ii men
carr be got together and induced to
exchange thought on questions OF
doctrine and methods Of legislation,
and the tenor and scope of law, the
rest may be safely left to time and
the growth of intelligence. This will
teach them to abhor a government
in the hands Of few for the Cypress
ion of the many. 1t will encourage
them in the work of bringing to the
people the blessing of good govern
ment; of giving them liberty
under the law: law under constitu-
tional restraints, and freedom with
out injustice oroppression. Thought
full and intelligent men realize the
truth that state and national legisla-
ton for the past twenty-five years
has been in the interest of rings, cor
ners, combines, trusts aud nonopo-
lies, and against the masses and at
the cost of the people. The Alliance
demands that the favors Of law and
legislation flow to all alike, without
special privileges to any section or
class. The object, end and aim of
the farmers alliance as we under
stand it, is to restore the administra-
ton of the government to decent
and economical basis; to secure and
preserve liberty under the law; to re-
store constitutional freedom without
oppression, to all the people. Crude
ideas and absurd demands will take
reasonable shape in the red hot forge
Of public debate and education. The
farmers are conscious of their needs
and with their capacities as n lever,
they are tugging away at the very
foundations of social. economic and
and political life, and the civilization
of the world quiyers from foundation
to Keystone from what seems to be
the advancing wave Of new and
better civilization. q civilization that
will frown upon the accused thirst
for gold and the devil gospel of
every man for himself" which of
late years has sent upon our country
q deluge Of moral desolation for the
better assertion that IAN injury to
one IS the concern of ALL Under its
benign influence the sectionalism
between the north and the south will
be entirely effaced. The grip of the
money lenders Of the East on the
borrowing West and South must be
loosened that capital may become
more plentiful in every section of our
country. More money is as needful
to national prosperity as robber tax
es. The west and south demand
mcre Of the former, aud less of the
latter.

The Robber System.

A Louisiana sugar producer sells an
Iowa corn producer twenty pounds
of sugar for S1.00. The government
is to give him at these figures 40 cents
on every dollars worth. SO he gets
81 40 for every one dollars worth
of sugar he produces. He raises ii
hundred dollars worth of sugar aad
gets $40 for il. 1t is different with
the corn raiser. He sells 800 worth
OF corn for that much money. Thel
ne pays $40 of that amount in the
way of taxes 10 the government 70,
the benefit of the sugar raiser
thus leaving him 500 for his $lot
worth OF corn. That is why thu
Iowa farmer grows rich.-Waterlot

American Dentists In England.

American dentists arc very popular In

American dentists arc greatly favored
with French patronage, and several OF
them have made fortunes by their skill.
