We have bashful young man
over at our house who invariably
lost the use of his tongue when he
came into the presence of his chest
girl" Last week he discovered that
he could talk through the telephone
without blushing, and has since been
getting along nicely until to-day.
The old man did not leave for the
store this morning at the usual hour,
fact of which the young man was
not appraised. Having called up the
proper number, he whispered into
the receiver a few soft, sweet words
and paused for a reply. The reply
came, but instead of being in Miss
Lula's silvery notes, deep bass
inquired, "What's that ?" Just then
strong electric current must have
come in contact with the telephone
wire, Judging from the effect upon
our young mans nerves. He is now
resting easy and we have strong
hopes of his final recovery.

Rip Van Wrinkle.

Rip Van Wrinkle is a very fair
sample of the average farmer and
laborer of the United States. After
his sleep of twenty years he has
arisen to his feet, brushed the dust
and cob-webs from his eyes, and is
rapidly learning the true conditions
that surround him. Prejudice and
hate, brewed by the rebellion, is the
liquor which the geni of organized
capital gave him to drink. The
frosts and damp of monopoly have
stiffened his limbs and financial mil
dew has rotted his clothes, and his
once trusty weapon, the ballot, has
been rendered well-nigh worthless.
But he is again on his feet, his eyes
wide open, and although dumb
founded, amazed, dazed by the
changes that have taken place
during his long sleep, he is donning
new garments, repairing and modern
ling his old fint-lock and will drive
the gent back into the defles of the
mountains and smother them in their

Listen to these words of wisdom
from L. L. Polk, president of the
National Farmers Alliance sSThe
agricultural states of the south, the
west and the northwest must come
together and stand together. | know
there are men in the south-some
through the force of association, some
through patriotic motives, and some
through lust for spoils-who would
still crouch at the feet of Wall street
With me this is the alternative pre-
sented. Should the south continue
to lie supinely in the octopus arms
Of great the autocratic money power
with it's tentacles fastened in he1
very vitals, until it sucks the last
drop of her life blood; or should
she accept the outstretched, fraternal
hand of the great northwest, whose
interests are her interests and making
common cause, wrest the government
from the hands of plutocratic power
and place it in the hands of the peo-
ple?"

1t costs from 5000 to 800 to send
a car load of strawberries from Flor
ida to New York; a freight car cost
about $500. When we consider that
the road is only out of the car about
five days and gets nearly first cost
for one load of freight, it looks like
an argument in favor of government
ownership. But never mind about
that. The fool who raises strawber-
ries, corn, wheat, oats, cotton and
such things ought to be fined for it,
anyhow. We expect it will become
penitentiary offense after awhile.

Are you? -The politicians say the

Are you beginning to fear that posi-
bly, it is? God have mercy on your
poor, deluded soul! Suppose some
one had said that free coinage was
dangerous prior to 1873. What a
fool he would have been considered.
Washington signed the first free
coinage bill. Jefferson and Madison
supported it. Jackson, Calhoun,
Clay, Benton, Webster, Lincoln, and
all the statesmen back of 1873 sus-
tanned it. London bankers first found
