EDITOR TIMES ::

The crisis has come at last. Shall
we be represented do theC Congress of
the United States by man whose
only ambition is to he a Congress-
man or by one who desires to be a
servant of the people: Shall we be
represented by oae who desires our
votes because of our love for his la
meEted father, or by one who mer-
its our support because of his untir-
ing zeal for good government and
the perpetuation of Republican
principles? Are we to be repre-
sented0y man who holds up before
the people Of this congressional dis
trict the bones of his father as the
sole argument why he should be
elected to fill the vancancy, or by a
man who Glands upon a broad and
liberal platform, the embodiment
Of which Is " Justice to all and mall
ice toward none" Which will we
vote for, the colder, philanthropist,
christian gentleman or q mere pol.
itietan who seeks only aggrandize-
ment by sacrificing the true aims
andmotives Of q common people ?
Men who stop to think can readily
answer these questions.
A few reasons why We should
elect Capt. w. w. Woodruff to all
the vacancy caused by the untimely
death of the Hon. L. G. Houk:

First. He bas been in line with
the principles and policies Of the
Republican party all his lifetime.
Secondly. His success as . busi-
ness man, his integrity and sobriety
endear him to those who come In
contact with him; hence his associ.
ates In Congress will Of necessity
be influential with business men.
Thirdly. His intense feeling Of
love and patriotism for his fellow.
man and for his country, and this
coupled with his liberality and gen.
erosity cannot fail to receive the
plaudits of friend or foe.
Fourthly. His devotion to God
and for the right.
Is not this enough: How Is Il
with the other aspirant?,
Has Mr.. Houk lived in harmony
with the principles Of the Repubii-
can party, (Who edits the Knox
Vile Republican; a Democrat or a
Republican?) Upon what grounds
does he base his canvas? Are we to
believe the Republican, or, are we
to believe those conducting affairs

The Poor Mans Friend.

The Poor Mans Friend.
Mr. EDITOR
How much the politician loves
the poor man! Because he himself
is poor, he calls himself the poor
mans friend! Is not this logic
political humbug? Who helps the
poor man: Who gives hin employ
ment? Who feeds the starving? ?
Who clothes the naked? Who
sends coal to warm the shlvering
children? Who builds them
churches and schools? Who erects
the magnificent hospitals and Or
phan asylums and the homes for the
aged and thus provides for the PEN
niless? Dopoor politiciansdo this ?
No, no, Mr.. Editor, poor people
can't do such things. The people
of means-many who we're once
poor-are the ones whose hearts are
touched with human cares, and are
now doingsso Msch to relieve them
these aresthepoor mans friends.
Noclas of people in the world have
as deep sympathy for the poor man
as the rich have, and it Is a shame
to any politicsa opponent to seek to
injure him because he is rich. At
the same time he is doing this, every
poor lnan knews this whining poll.
tician wishes he had just such a
home and store as his opponent
owns. Yes, he would be glad to be
a millionaire. Knowing all this,
how much confidence can the peo-
pie have In one who Is warning them
10 beware of;all these SnucK UPS"
Why he wishes he was a q 4STUCK
Up" himself. That Is the'truth and
everybody knowsi it. Then how can
anyone be soshortsighted as to warn
such sensible voters as Tennesseans
are, to beware lest his opponent
PURCHASES them. Tennesseans:are
not in the market to sell their votes,
nor have we an editor ia our county
tobe bought as was of latesttempt-
ed.

No, tits no disgrace to any man to

him any sooner than l would for
another who sssails his competitor
because he iis rich. A mans char
acter and worth is not measured by
his purse, the laboring man of the
same virtues, is as deserving. of our
esteem, as is'the man in the palace.
Had Igone to the honared and la
mented L.. C.. C.sHouk, as I repeatedly
did to Capt. w. w. Woodruff, and
asked sid to help poor struggling
student, I Iam-srre his big.gensrous
heart would have prompted him to
do had he possessed the means that
Capt. Woodruff did. Some of these
poor boys will never forget the
timely aid that saved them from
going home doomed to ever ren,ain
unedueated and comparatively
speaking, unknown.
Give Ms aen who conquors power
ty and then distribute all about
them, as Capt. W'oodruff is dding,

his name Is HOuk or Woodruff the
people will riseunend do him honor.

One beast of our American insti-

find an attempt in this congression-
al Confess to array Gle masses
against an imaginary Aristocracy.
HJ.C. Hoax wants it and will make
the best congressman, by all means

send him, but don't conjure up a
scare crow in the air in order to
secure the excess Of either.

as to what was the right course for
the Republicans of this district to
pursue. Because we could not be
bull-dozed into supporting Hovk,
does not prove that we have been
bought by Capt woodruff.
There is just one question to de-
eide Capt. Woodruff began life q
poor boy, and an orphan. He has re-
ceived no salary, aave that ofa SOL

by industry, application and frugal
ity has gathered a small fortune,
which is a blessing to every good

Honey dew is a sweet ssccharine sub
stance found on the leaves of trees and
other plants in small drops like dew.
Two substances have been called by the
name honey dew-one secreted from the
plants, and the other deposited by the
aphis.
Bees known as the "Holy Land" bees
are race from the Holy Land. These
bees are prolific, and gather and store
honey well. but they are quarrelsome,
and have not come into favor. The
Italians are general favorites.
The term "Albino" in bee culture re-
fers to variety of Italian bees with
white rings. AS high authority as Pro-
fessor Cook says that the Albinos are
not distinct race Hedoes not consider
them superior, if equal, to the average
Italian bee.

There are no cheap mills that will
grind large quantity Of bones econom-
ically, says Rural New Yorker. Grind
ing bones in large quantities is serious
job even ia the case of fertilizer manu-
facturers who have every appliance.
Burning or ''softening" with lye or wood
ashes is about the only practical plan for
the farmer. When the bones are smash
ed up with sledge hammer and packed
in alternate layers of wood ashes or pot
ash salts and the whole is kept moist
with water or urine the bones become
softened. The same is true of bones
packed in the manure heap, but both of
these processes are slow and unsatlsfac-
tory. Where wood is cheap the bones
may be burned by making pile of wood
and bones with kindliny enough to make
it blaze. These bone and wood ashes
make good mixture of potash and phos-
phoric acid, but rs 1t contains no nitrogen
it will not give the best results on soils
where nitrogen is needed, unless this is
added in the shape of blood, fish scrap,
nitrate of soda or some other form.

Will Freezing Hurt ,E'eundatLon9

In reply to this question, "Win freez-
ing hurt foundation" A. /. Root Gays in
his A'Gleanings" in Bee Culture that the
freezing will do no harm at all, provid-
ing some iuconsiderate person does not
attempt to handle it while it is cold.
Persons who ought to know better un-
dertabe to move foundation when it is
almost icy cold. Of course it tlieg to
pieces like thin glass, and then after
they have done q let of mischief they
sometimes undertake to repair it, and in
doing 80 they break lot more of it.
Never touch foundation nor even hard
ly look at it when it is in aecold room.
Air and light have the effect of bleach
ing and hardening thiE foundation, and
as this makes it little more difficult for
the bees to work. it is generally consid
cred better to have your foundation shut
up in a box, protected from air and
light as much as possible during the
winter time.
