CORRESPONDENCE.
TammAny Junior.

The good people of SALISBURY were
treated to an agreeable surprise on Tues
dav last The oneruus and really bur-
densome Offices in the gift of the people,
such as selectmen, road commissioners,
collector. auditors, and the like, were
very generously accepted by our kind
hearted friends of the incorporate viii
lage of South SALISBURY, while the less
responsible ones, pound keeper, fence
viewers. etc., were kindly dispensed
north, east and west. "Sich is life."
''For he played upon harp of thousand
strings, spirits of just men made per-
feet" Really this wonderful IncOrpOr-
ate Village of South Salisbury with an
area of nine square miles,, is vieing with
Tammany and it's machine corps. Truly,
Tammany and South Salisbury have
become synonymous terms, and David
b. is coming up with all eagle eye to the
interests of David b., Doodle and DAVID
b. Yes, fellow townsmen, as much as
we may regretit, dame Rumor" has it
that this generous spirit of Tammany
Junior is somewhat beclouded by the
prospect in the near future of highway,
street or boulevard to be laid and con-
structed for the purpose of enhancing
the barren waste of two or three individ
uals. But says one, the public good de-
mands it. Yes, in the minds eye we
can already dimly trace the stately and
graceful floats of the Eagle Square Co.,
anil other business interests Chicago
Columbian Exposition likeJ, grandly
passing down the battery, thence with
all its pomp and splendor moving out on
the boulevard with its massive granite
blocks and stately edifces, thence up
Church street, thence through laby-
rinth of streets, avenues bIoadways, ETC..
giving world wide advertisement to
their wares and merchandise. Verify,
this is an age of progress, and one holds
bis breath in contemplation. In the
mean time fellow taxpayers, it is well to
watch the tiger jump, and let things
develop. x.Y,z,

Strength and Health.

II you are not feeling strong and
healthy, try Electric Bitters. If la
Grippe has left you weak and weary,
use Electric Bitters. This remedy acts
directly on liver, stomach and kidneys,
gently aiding those organs to perform
their functions. If you are afflicted with
sick headache, you will find speedy and
permanent relief by taking Electric Bit
ters. One trial will convince you that
this remedy you need. Large bottles

The argument is being used by some
Of Hills adherents that he can control
the vote of the State of New York, if
nominated for President, without trust
ing to vote of the people, because he
can control the Legislature, and that
body can decide to elect the electors it
self. OF course that is a constitutional
possibility. But il the Presidential
electors of this State should be selected
by Legislature organized in fraud, it
would be aquestion for the federal courts
to decide whether or not the action Of
such Legislature is valid. Neither Hill
nor any other Democratic candidate
would care to risk his chances of cleo
ton as President to the decision of the
United States courts as to whether or not
the present New York Legislature is
legal body.

EVIDENCE OF ANCIENT HIsroRv


From a lecture on "The Antiquity of
the Human Race" by Prof. Wright be-
fore the Lowell, Mass. institute, we COPY
a few paragraphs of general interest, as
follows:
Oral tradition can now be depended
upon for period of about one hundred
and thirty years. Before the invention
of writing, such evidence may have been
worthy of being depended upon for a
longer period. At che utmost it would
have lost its value after few genera.
tions. Trustworthy history of Rome
begins no earlier than about $50 B. C. ::
while that of Greece is all subsequ ent to
the seige of Troy, which occurred abo ut
1900 &. g. Chinese history runs furGh er
back, but soon ends in vague mythulu gi-
cal periods. The earliest historical re-
cords are from the valleys of the Nile
and Euphrates. Erech, or Warka, in the
valley of the Euphrates, was a great lit
erary centre as early as 20JO B. q. The
great pyramids of Gizeh were probably
constructed about 300 b. c. Kufu, the
builder of the largest one, extended his
conquests to the Sinaitic Desert, and left
inscriptions there ON rock tablet in
Wady Wagharah. This was in the fourth
dynasty. A granite pyramid was dis
covered buried in the sand in the time of
Kufu, the builder of the Great Pyramid,
and the Sphinx had probably already
been carved before that time.
The "Oldest Book in the World" was
papyrus manuscript discovered in a
tomb at Thebes in lS47 by Monsieur
Prisse of Paris. This contained treat
Use upon morals by Ptah- Hotep of the
fifth dynasty, and treatise on manners
by Kakimna, written during the reign of
Senoferu according to Brugseh, $500 b.
CO., according to Marietie, 400 B. C.
These treatises show lofty conceptions of
the Deity, and high standard of family
and social life.
The progress of mankind has been an
exceedingly variable quantity. The
fellahs of Egypt have made none in a
period Of 5000 years. The civilization of
northern Europe has come about with a
period of 1000 years. Every civilized
Nation has borrowed intellectual capital
from some Nation before it. Genealogi-
cal tables in DO Ii the Old and New Tes
taments were never put to chronological
use by the writers, and were probably
not intended to give chronology.

"A million at lick! This is what an
enormous fortune enables a man to con-
tribute to the cause of humanity. 1t is
the amount that John d. Rockefeller has
just donated to the University of Chi
cago. Mr. Rockefeller had already given
$1,000, 900 to endow this great institution
of learning, making more than two and
half millions i'll the aggregate. The
last gilt was as unexpected as it was
weicom". While comparisons may be
odious, the public can hardly help con-
trasting Mr.. Rockefellrr's liberality with
the ten-thOusand-dOllar donation of Jay
Gould to religious purposes.
