The razor strop.

A great many men who find that their
razors cannot be kept in order by a
common leather strop buy the sort Of
strop used by BARRIERS, imagining that
with this the razor can be kept in per-
feet condition. They are generally
greatly disappointed to find that their
razors cut no better than before
The fault is not with the razor
nor with the strop, but in their
not knowing how to use a barber's
strop. To sharpen razor with bar
ber's strop requires not only consider
able strength but also a peculiar swing
of the wrist. Unless this be learned
the more you strop a razor the less it
will cut.

CHICAGO, Feb. 12.--There is now in this
CITY young man, Carl Petersen by name,
who was an intimate friend of
Carlyle w. Harris, convicted OF murder
in New York city. Mr.. Petersen is en-
gagged to Miss Mollie Meeker Of Asbury
Park, N. j. Miss Meeker and Helen
Potts were inseparable friends, and thus
the four young people passed a great
deal of their time together. Six weeks
before Helen Potts death Petersen, Har-
ris and Miss Potts were all at Asbury
Park together. The rest of the story is
told in Petersen's own words. He says

My God, Helen, I said, what are
you going to do with that? "Why, you
have enough poison there to kill dozen
men,.
"Don't be a goose, she replied, I

''She then wrapped the morphine up,

What was the meaning OF this spon-

method that the people took Of expressing

hateful reconstruction period. Through
the great public spirit Of two Of her GILL

source Of untold advantages to 1t. Major
Ginter has emphatically declared since the
election that he would not have embarked

not been elected. This is the strongest
possible evidence of the way our people
thought and felt about the Force bill.
We knew that It made progress and de-
velopment impossible here; but remove
its shadow and our people are prepared
to grapple with the problems Of life with
a hearty good will.
As this great demonstration by Rich
mond has shown the pentup feelings OF
the people here. so a move should be set
on foot to give formal expression Of the
feeling of all the people of the South on
the subject. The world should be made

NO ALLIANCE WITH THE THIRD
PARTY.

Chairman Taubeneck, Of the National
Populist Campaign Committee, aired his
views last week upon the political situa-
ton as the recent election has left It.
He said that his party would reOrganiza
at Cnce and prepare for the next con-
test. Candidate Weaver has since then
issued his pronunciamento. and he makes
declaration of the same purpose. The
country, therefore. may reasonably sup
pose that these cranks and agitators and
their accomplices are going to do what
they can TO incite turmoil throughout the
country in the future. one thing we most
earnestly hope, and that is that the
Democratic party will hold totally and
entirely aloof from them and allow them
to go their own way.
The only consequence which has at
tended union with them during the recent
contest is that which overtakes all those
who touch pitch. Where the Democratic
party affiliated with them no good, but
only harm. came to it; and when it scorn-
fully refused to have any part or lot with
them Democratic principles triumphantly
prevailed.
In Illinois, Indiana. Wisconsin and the
whole South Democratic triumphs of the
most extraordinary character attended
our exertions, and in no one State Of
these was there any union or association
between the Democrats and the Third
party The Democratic party in the three
Western States named and in the South
knew the Third partyites only as enemies;
it thereby appealed 10 the conservative
sentiment of all men having a stake in
life and its triumphs wherever it did
this were extraordinary and complete.
Mr.. Taubeneck declares: I'VE are right,
and will not turn our backs on the prin-
ciples we have advocated about money.
land and transportation, before which
the tariff question sinks into insignif-
canoe" And Candidate Weaver declares:
1.-THE new administration will ignore the
three great questions of modern times,
relating to land money and transporta-
tion," which shows that the candidate and
the chairman of the new party are in
entire accord in respect to the aims that
their party will continue to have.
This means that it will still strive TO
force this Government to issue unlimited
quantities Of legal tender notes, TO be
loaned to farmers on land and farm pro-
ducts and that it will still endeayor to
force the Government to take possession
of all the railroads in the country.
We have not the patience TO discuss
either Of these propositions, nor do we
believe that either needs any discussion
before the American people. We believe
the body Of the American people are per-
fectly cognizant of the absurdity of both.
We bring them forward. however, and
emphasize them In order that Democrats
may know that these broken down, spav-
ined political hacks are going to limp
out before the people again with their
pitiable adsurdities. We call attention to
them that Democrats may take warning
in advance and prepare their lines of
battle on ground that will diverge as far
as possible from all contact with these
people. whose leaders are simply dis
turbers Of the public peace, and neither
more nor less than that.
