Here is q list of figures reaching up to
$l54,2OO, as one years visible expense
for the care Of q presidential household,
and how much more has been Sdroltly
covered up in the supply bills" for the
White House is somewhat q matter Of
conjecture.
During the presidency Of Abraham
Llncoln-thst man Of the people-with
q civil war fiercely raging through most
Of his administration, the outlay for the
objects above named was about onef fifth
Of the above current expenditures, while
it is q potent fact that the demands Of
the chief executive and the actual ne
cesslties Of the White House were many
fold greater and immensely more exact
ing than they now are. But since the
close Of the war between the states there
has been developed reckless extrava-
gsnce, organized jObbery, incalculable
plunder and unparalleled extravagance.
These artificial burdens have been laid
upon the shoulders Of tho many for the
benefit and profit Of the favored few, who
have virtually "stoOd In" as government
beneaciaries, and who have been loud
mouthed advocates Of the leading prin-
clples of the Republican party which
champloned "a billion dollar Congress" "
But, as labor is more and more under
thralldOm, these White House expenses
90 on, as it were, in geometriCal ratio,
and the simple and honorable methods
Of the fathers, and their successors, that
prevailed until after Mr.. Lincoln's term
Of Office ceased, have been most widely
departed from, because, forsooth, the
main strikers of this national admins
tration tell the people of the land that
they have "a billion country"

WASHINGTON, D, c., Jan. 6, 1892.
To the Honorable, the House Of Representatives
and Senate of the United States, In Congress
| assembled:
Your memoralists, committee elected
by the Supreme Council Of the National
Farmers Alliance and Industrial Union,
under it's instruction and on its behalf,
would most respectfully represent:
That the universal and unparalleled de-
preston in all departments Of our great
agricultural industry has impressed the
farmers of the United States with the great
est concern and alarm. That despite their
fruitful soils, the favoring conditions of
climate, their faithful application and
courageous industry, and irrespective of
seasons or harvests, their farms and the
products of their labor are constantly and
steadily decreasing in value. That the in
spiriting hope Of competency and comfort,
as q reward for their toll, is vanishing in
their earnest struggle for sustenanCe and
the preservation of home That patient,
honest, and earnest investigation of this
anomalous condition of affairs, has i'm
pressed the farmers Of the country with the
solemn conviction that the evils that are
thus ologging and paralyEying their ener-
gies are largely due to discriminating ine-
qualities in our governmental policy, and
which are the legitimate outgrowth Of par
tial and unfriendly legislation.
Your memOrialists would further respect
fully represent:
That in their organized capacity, the
farmers of thirty light states and territories
of the union, after long and earnest delib-
Grafton and remarkable unanimity, formu-
lated and adopted declaration Of princl-
ples (an official copy Of which is hereto
4ppended), which they believe, if enacted
into law, would restore agriculture to its
true and just position among the great in
dustries of the country, and would conserve
the highest and best intereet of the public
good. That they respectfully but earnestly
commend TO the patriotic consideration and
favor of your honorable bodies, the justice
and wisdom of enaoting such laws as will
embody the principles enumerated in the
declaration referred to.
Your memorialsts would further respect
fully represent:
That they are specially charged to ask the
attention Of your honorable bodies TO the
great and urgent necessity for immediate
legislative action sfOr the financial relief

one among them whose wildness cannot
understand, and that is the common water
turtle. Why is this creature so fearful?
What are its enemies? know of nothing
that preys upon it. Yet see how watchful
and suspicious these turtles are as they sun
themselves upor log or rock. Before
you are fairly in gunshot of them they slide
down into the water and are gone.
Difference in Turtles.
The land turtle, or terrapin, on the other
hand. shows scarcely a trace uf fear. He
very near him, but he will not retreat into
his shell until you have poked him with
your foot or cane. He appears to have no
enemies; but the little spotted water turtle
is as shy as if he was the delicate tid-bit that
every creature was searching for. ] did
once find one which a fox had dug out of the
mud in winter and carried few rods and
dropped on the snow as il he had found no
use for it.
One can understand the fearlessness Of the
skunk. Nearly every creature but the farm
dog yields to him the right of way. All
dread his terrible weapon. If you meet one
In your walk in the twilight fields, the
chances are that you will turn out for him,
not he for you. He may even pursue you
Jus- for the fun of seeing you run. He
comes waltzing toward you, apparently In
the most hilarious spirits.
The coon is probably the most courageous
creature among our familiar wild animals.
Who ever saw a coon show the white
feather? He will face any odds with per-
feet composure. I have seen coon upon
the ground, beset by four men and two dogs
and never for moment lose his presence Of
mind, or show sign of fear. We were try
ing to capture him alive, and after much
maneuyeriup succeeded T seized him nv
the tail while he was occupied with the
dogs in his front and carried him to barrel
which had been got ready. The raccoon is
clear grit.
The Fox Gets Ashamed.
The fox is very wild and suspicious
creature, but curiously enough, when you
suddenly come face to face with him, when
he is held by q trap, or driven by the
hound, his expression is not that of fear,
but of shame and guilt He seems to di-
minish in size and to be overwhelmed with
humiliation. Does he know himself to be
an old thief, and is that the reason of his
embarrassment? The fox has no enemies
but man, and when he is fairly outwitted,
be looks the shame he evidently feels.
In the heart of the rabbit fear constantly
abides. How her eyes protrudei She can
see back and front and on all sides equal to a
bird. The fox is after her, the owls are
after her, the gunners are after her, and she
has no defense but her speed. She always
keeps well to cover. The Northern hare
keeps in the thickest brush. If the hare or
rabbit crosses broad open exposure it does
SO hurriedly, like a mouse when it crosses
the road. The mouse is liable to be pounced
upon by hawk. and the hare or rabbit by
the snowy owl, or else the great horned owl

Technical Language OF the Poacher.

Among the elegant terms in the vocabul-
ary of the semi-poacher are these, according
to q writer in Forest and Stream: "Sniggling"
Is method Of catching cells by means of a
needle passed into worm. ''Trimmering' is
set line with one or two hooks for fish of
of prey. 'Teistering" is form of spearing.
Tickling" or in Scotland "guddling," is
the taking of trout from beneath bank by
tickling the belly with the fingers and then
suddenly clasping the fish and throwing it
out. "Bobbing" is catching eels with o
clot of worms threaded on worsted.
"Dibbling," ''daping." doping" are
convertible expressions for the use of the
real insect instead of the artificial in fly
fishing. "Lobbing" refers to the use Of a
bunch of the ordinary garden worms on the
hook,
