NiggerIsm to the Front.

The third party managers in Upton
county have made IN open alliance
with the negroes and Republicans in
their fight for the county offices. In
their anxiety to get the benefit OF the
negro vote they put a negro Republi'
can on the ticket for the important Of
flee of county trustee. They are max
ing their campaign principally among
the negroes, and are busily organizing
them in secret night meetings after
the fashion of the unforgotton carpet.
Dagger in the days of reconstruction.
1t has become a part Of the creed OF
the Third party people that q niger
is as good as "A white man, and the
way they hug the odoriferous Numi-
dian to their palpitating bosoms must
make them very near and dear to the
heart Of their leader, John Henry.
We knew that the campaign would
sooner or later assume this phase.
With Mcdowell as the leader Of any
party it will drift into niggerism as
naturally as water will seek its level,
1t 10 in the niger night meeting that
John Henry's craftsmanship reaches
its climacteric point.
And what is now going on in Upton
will be conducted on a still larger scale
all through the Gubernatorial cam
paign. Just what form the comb
nation with Republicans will take we
do not know, but there is no doubt
that an understanding has already
been reached for a joint seizure and
fair divisions of the spoils. The negro
will be taken into full partnership by
the Third Larty crowd, and elevated
above the level of a white Democrat
in their estimation. Those who have
entered into this political partnership
with Negroes and Republicans are
sowing the wind, and they or the
white people of their communities
will reap the whirlwind. A proEi-
nent Democrat of Upton county was
recently subjected to a villainous as
sault with intent to murder by a crowd
of Third party rufians. His only Of

This causes an indiscriminate discus

The Laugh of a Child.

The laugh of a child will make the
hottest day more sacred still. Strike
with the hand of fire, 0 weird musi-
clan, thy harp strung with Apollo's
golden hair fill the vast cathedral
aisles within symphonies sweet and
dim, def TOUGHER of the organ keys ;
blow, bugler, blow, until thy silver
notes do touch and kiss the moonlit
waves and charm the lovers wandering
mid the vine-clad hills. But know
your sweetest strains are discords all,
compared with childhood's happy
laugh-the laugh that fills the eyes
with light and every heart with JOY.
o ripping river of laughter, thou art
the blessed boundary line between
beasts and men and every Maynard
wave OF thine doth drown some frttfuI
fiend Of care. 0 laughter, rose Tipped
daughter of jo', there are dimplts
enough in thy cheeks to catch and

WHAT THEY OWE TO AMERICA
liberation and Freedom Among the
Things for Which England Is
Thankful.

federation and Freedom Among the
Thankful.
The discovery OF America is one OF
those very few really big events which
occur in the history OF man. What
have we got from America? asks
Walter Besant in the London
Queen. Tobacco and potatoes. Any
thing else? As yet not much, be-
Eevs. What did we do with our big
discovery First, we converted it in
to n most magnificent battle eld Tor
the nations-English, French, Span
ish Then We gave up South America
to the Spaniard and took North
America for ourselves. This took
an extraordinary amount OF hShtlng.
Then we carefully created nation on
the other side which should he
brought up to hate us for no harm
that we had ever done them, except
to free their country from the French.
Then all the countries III Europe be
gan to shoot into this country
cargoes OF independent and rest
less spirits. There they oil are
English, SCOTCH, lTlSuf SCdiiulilt-
vians, Teutons, Italians, Spaniards,
Firms, Observation-Disclosures togeth-
err. told to talk English, and left to
amalgamate as best they can. It will
be amusing for a hundred years and
more to watch this mingling OF the
races, and to see what will be the out
come. Next, America offers us every
possible opportunity OF considering
the advantages and the disadvantages
of the republican form of government.
There are dozens OF republics, from
the great and stable United States
down to most miserably degraded and
corrupt republic OF South America.
Further, we have witnessed in Ameri-
ca the destruction of certainly two
very remarkable forms OF civilization:
these should have been preserved, at
least, until they had been properly in
vestigated and placed on record. We
have also witnessed the introduction
of the negro race. who threaten to
multiply and increase And when
we ackno wledge that North America is
the home of toleration and OF free
dom. we have, perhaps, recognized the
most important things that we owe
to Cbristoph ,r Columbus and his dis
cnyery.

Just whnt Eaitors Need.

A new counting machine for bronze coin
has been placed in the London mint. The
machine has four distinct sets Of counting ap-
pai Atus, each OF which can be worked indie
pendently of the others, and when all four
are in full work upward of 5000 pence can be
counted per minute. Two tables are placed
on platform, and the coin is raised to the
level of these by lift worked by an electric
motor, which also drives the counting ma
chimes A pair of the machines is fed from
each of the two tables, the coins passing from
the table down an inclined iron, the plate
forming a flat hopper, from which they Issue
In single file through a channel of suitable
width The next process is the graphing of
the coins by pair of rubber driving wheels
and their forcing past the rim or thin disc
provided with recesses in its circumference to
fit the circular edges OF the coins. As the
disc is thus made to revolve, the coins are
pushed forward falling into bag placed tc
receive them. When the bag is full the
counting wheel is stopped automatically and
the bag Is removed.

ALGisRS IRRIGATED.
Good Wrought by Artesian Wells In
Northern Africa


Northern Africa.
Arteslan wells have wroug ght wonders in
Algeria
Since 1856 in the provinces of Algicrs, oran
and Constantine over 1900 wells have been
bored, one-tenth of them at government ex-
pensc. These wells range from seventy-fve
feet to 400 feet in depth, and the low pressure
common to the majority of them forces the
water over the small board castings TO dis
tanco of only about two feet above the
ground.
The water is collected In small reservoirs,
from which it IS conveyed to vineyards, date
plantations and fields OF durra, millet and
wheat, which comprise the chief cereals OF
the colony About l., 100000 acres of desert
land have been reclaimed In this way.
Under this irrigation and reclamation
scheme Algeria has become a great wine
growing country. The total area under col
onlzation or settled occupation in Algeria in
1887 was 50,OOO,OO acres, and of this are,
over Il ,OoO, 900 acres were under cultivation
by irrigation for wheat, barley, oats, wine,
olives. dates, tobacco, etc.
Verify, the artesian well is grand inven-
tlon. In the ords OF Isaiah, ''The wider
ness and the solitary place shall be glad for
them; and the desert shall rejoice and bios
shall waters brea k out and streams in the
desert And the parched ground shall be-
come pool, and the land springs of water.''
