An event in which the whole nation
will be interested is announced for
April 27, 1892, when President Harri
son will lay the corner stone of the
Grant tomb to be erected in Riverside
park, New York. The structure will
rise to height of about 10 feet, and
be conspicuous object from long
defiance. It's interior will contain a
hall capable of holding a thousand
people, and from gallery about so
feet below the top, visitors will com
mand fine views through the. windows
to be made for their accommodation.
The sarcophagus of General Grant will
rest in the crypt, which will be reach
ed by marble staircase leading from
the hall. In this part of the monument,
which will probably be known as Me-
mortal hall, will be displayed memen-
toes and emblems associated with or
related to the achievements of the
great soldier in honor of whom the
monument will be erected.

OUR ADA APTABILTTY TO SHEEP
RAISING.

In some of the states, as Texas and
California, and in some of the terrific
riss, there are vast areas of land which
can not be used for any purpose but
grazing sheep or goats. These are the
regions for the so called carpet woods.
But we are now dealing with Ohio. 1t
is not possible to obtain accurate sta
tistics as to the condition of Ohio
lands, but it is safe to say that in the
Southeastern tiers of counties, with
some elsewhere, a full half million of
acres is almost worthless for any 9TH
er purpose than sheep husbandry.
Some of it is fertile, some partially
sterile, but capable of fertilization by
sheep husbandry. It's steep hillsides
in many places can not be cultivated;
in others they can be only for brief
periods, because otherwise the rains
would soon wash away the soil, but
all can be used for grazing sheep, and
the valleys can be made to produce
the needed hay and corn. Sheep can
craze where cattle and horses can not,
and in some localities the water sup
ply will support sheep, but it is not
sufficient for cattle and horses. Sheep
husbandry can be made to utilize these
lands, impart to them a value they
would not otherwise possess, and thus
add to the wealth, capacity and re-
sources of the state.

BLAINE SPEAKS OUT.

The Fittsburg Times paints the fol-
lowing from correspondent in Wash
ington: In the course of conversation
with the writer and one Of the leading
physicians OF the country, who has
lately attended the secretary, the ply
sician remarked: "I see some of the
newspapers continue to connect your
name with the presidency, Mr.. Secre-
tary. Promptly, as one answers a
question upon which he has done de-
iberating, Mr.. Blaine responded
'tThe presidential office is a most la
borious and exhausting one. He has
no vice, no alternate, no substitute
upon whose shoulders he can share
responsibility. There is vice presi
dent, but our scheme Of government
does not permit him to assume the
powers and duties of the president
except in case of the death, removal,
resignation or disability of the presi
dent. It does not contemplate the
vice president as an occasional acting
president for day or two or a week
or two when the man who has been
elected to that Office may need rest
and recreation.
"The presidency is an office without
sleep. I am now 50 years old, and al
though you have told me and [ be-
Heve that in heart, lungs, kidneys and
otherwise am free from organic dis
ease, suffering only from torpidity of
the liver, I do not believe that if I
were to be inaugurated tomorrow [
would live out my term. I find life
too full of congenial work and too full
Of happiness to feel called upon or in
clined to throw it away. If Iwere as
sured, therefore, of a nomination and
election to the presidency I could not
accept it. At my age and with my
temperament, and knowing what the
effect long life of exhausting labor
has been upon my vitality, it would
be constructive suicide.''
The secretary spoke with the en-
phasis ofperfect candor md with an
apparent desire only to make himself
definitely understood.

QUESTIONS.

Dir. Editor, - What is all this talk
about a Farmers Candidate?n Is
Lieut.. Governor Fletcher in the field,
and do they think, after killing off
Col. woodbury. OF a plea of non pro
motion, that they can ignore that plea
in Mr. Fletcher?
In this region, and among leading
men of the state, Col Fuller has the
track. We have many factions over
this way but we are pretty unanimous
ly in favor Of Col. Fuller for governor.
Truly, 3. J. RANsLoW.
ANSWERS.
So far as we can learn, and we
speak from knowledge obtained from
personal inquiry with some Of the
leading farmers of the county and the
state, the whole cry for "farmer's
candidate is hypocrisy and fraud It
originates in this section from party
or parties who are not farmers, and
who talk this tWaddle to create a
boom for somebody claimed to be a
special representative of the farmer
class.
In the vicinity of ST. Albans, we i'm
agine that it all originates IN the brain
of an editor who knows nothing in
particular about farming, and who
cares almost as little about farmers
as he knows about farming. We judge
that his pretended interest in farmers
is either to get little prestige among
farmers for his journal, or a little
boost for coveted political position.
In the vicinity OF Rutland the far
mers' boom is simply a subterfuge to
kill off one candidate in the interests
Of another, or to crafty the caprice
and the malice of man who has no
special regard for any man or class.
For the atmosphere of Ludlow the cry
for the farmer is for the purpose of
doing harm to Col Fuller
and to help a personal friend and
supposed candidate of neighbor-
ing town. When the farmers want
something politically or otherwise let
them speak. Until then let those who
know nothing about their desires
cease to voice their wishes.

the Poor Heiiow was Really Hungry and
Spoke His Mind Too Frankly.
Tom De witt, Jack Ford and Ed Still,
man had been living on cigars and hope
for two days and were nearly starved to
death.
They had decided to honor some of
their Vassar friends with visit, at the
time Of the commencement, when the
college discipline is somewhat relaxed;
but short stay in the place had con-
WINGED them that the fare of the Pough-
keepsie boarding house was inadequate
to satisfy Murray Hill appetites.
So when, after a morning drive, the
girls announced that they intended to
eHectaally silence the current feeble
sheer at the cooking abilities of fair col
iegians by giving the party lunch pre-
pared by themselves, there was JOY in
the hearts of the men. At the word
lunch" Tom looked at Ed and Ed look
ed at Tom, and Jack looked straight
into the face of the prettiest girl and
said most felicitously, sob, thank you'll"
1t was to be served in one of the rooms
at 2 o'clock; Sin the meantime they
would stroll about the grounds and get
up an appetite"
AT last the lunch came. 1t was a
"pink" one. The table was artistically
and tastefully decorated. Big pink bows
and punches of roses covered the cloth,
and deliberately painted dinner cards
directed the guests to their seats.
As course succeeded course the men
began to wonder where the substan-
tials were coming in, and to realize that
third disappointment had fallen to
their lot.
The little tubs of deviled salmon, the
impalpable croquettes with tender as
paragus tips, the tiny dabs of shrimp
salad in the center of cool, green lettuce
leaves, the sailed almonds, the olives.
the meringues glace and the strawberry
sherbet were all very dainty and deli
cate, but not particularly satisfying to
earthly mortals whose thoughts were
running on thick, juicy English chops
and big pewter mugs the size of an in !
fant's bathtub.
And when as a finishing touch cute !
little packages Of tutti frutti, cunningly !
tied up in pink ribbons, were passed |
around on silver plate, the men felt |
unequal to further conversational effort. |
A few hours after the feast Tom De |
Witt remarked that it was time for
them to be starting, as they expected to |
catch the 7:50 train for New York.

TO it.

straight to hotel and get something to
eat, for we haven't had a square meal
since we have been in this town."
For moment three girls stared /
blankly at each other, and then the
young men gathered their hats and
canes together and, saying hurried "good
nights" sped, with horizontal coat tails.
