platform upon which all could con.
sistently stand and thus bring all our
combined strength into harmonious CO.
operation. The great conference has
been held, held at our suggestion; at
our invitation. Harmony prevailed, a
platform was adopted embodying more
OF our demands than of the demands of
any other order there represented.
Some little compromises were expected,
but our order virtually shaped the plat
form. And all the organizations there
represented, without dissenting voice,
voted for it. By voting for it thew
pledged the honor of their organization
as well as their individual honor to its
support. Now, brethren, to fail to
stand for, speak for, contend earnestly
for, and by all means vote for the car
rying the principles of the st. Louis
platform into the laws of the land
would be a reproach and disgrace
upon us. We called the conference, we
framed the platform; to desert it, or
even to lag now In supporting it would
cause our confederates and friends to
lose confidence in us and respect for us.
Ii we do our duty we will vote for no
man or party which in any degree
shows disposition to check our prog
ress in this direction. We declare: I'm
things essential, unity" and it is evil
dent that unity upon this platform
is essential to the success of our
cause. If there be any little chickering's
or strife, or personal preferences,
or any political party affiliations, or any
other thing in the way, let it not once
be named among US; let us as one man,
with one mind, bury the whole past,
and as we value liberty for ourselves
and wish to leave it to our offspring,
let us accept the st. Louis platform,
plant ourselves squarely upon it and
show to the world that this is not
matter of mere child's play with US, but
a principle from which nothing can
drive US. In so far as we deviate from
this course, either to the right hand or
to the left, we weaken our cause and
strengthen the cause of the opposition.
We must stand together, work together
If we would succeed, or even hope to
see our demands respected. II we will
do this we will show our power and
gain the respect of our enemies and
those who continually prophesy evil Of

6tOp and Think.

Some people have an idea that a re-
duction in the price of what they buy Is
the great thing to be sought after in the
reform movement If these people will
only stop and think moment they will
realize that low prices is the one thing
they are protesting against. Low prices
for products of labor mean low wages
for the producer of that product, wheth-
er he is in the shop. factory or on the
farm. Put this in your pipe and smoke
1T, remembering that the effect which
low prices on farm products has on the
prosperity of the country is the same
as that OF low prices on products g
other labor, whether in the mine, shop
or factory. Reformer.

Grand indeed is the spectacle which
Georgia farmers are presenting To the
world to-day. From every county, from
every militia district comes up the same
never varying report, ''We are standing
solid; the common people, the men on
the farms are for the st. Louis platform
and the peoples party
Politicians may speak lightly of the
movement, may fiatter themselves that
their hold on the people cannot be
broken; that fealty to name will hold
the voters in their old parties, but they
are mistaken. They will awake to
their error by and by but too late to re-
gain the confidence of the people.
Let it be so. Perhaps it is well that
1t is so.
Men whom the people have trusted 10
lead them, yet who, because they were
themselves comfortably fed and housed
and clad, have neither seen nor cared TO
see the awful burdens beneath which
the people staggered, who denied even
that the burdens were greater than
the people should bear. 1t is better
that these men continue blind to the
uprising of the people, and being blind
and useless that they be set aside while
other men from among the people take
their place and become the mouthpiece
OF the people.

Wall with Bullets.

Wall with Bullets.
As you stand on the front portico Of
the white house and look east along
the iron railing protecting the edge of
the grand drive and sidewalk. there is
seen pair Of stone steps leading down
to the brick-foored area before the
laundry windows, says the Washington
Post. The stairs are built on solid
stone masonry that is whitewashed
now. If you look at the west side
of the masonry you see three dents close
together, and might wonder hundred
times without guessing how they were
made.
among the callers at the white
house recently was Robert Schenck, of
Meriden. Conn Mr.. Schenck went at
once and looked at those steps. When
he saw the dents, he said: "You see
those depressions? Well, stood one
morning In 1852 at the window at the
foot of the stairs leading to the presi-
dents Office. when President Lincoln
and Robert came through the iron
CRATE under the front porch. He had
. new short ride that had Just been
sent to him to try. Guns and rifles
were always being sent to him In those
days
"a barrel stood right by those steps.
Lincoln put several bullets through the
barrel, striking the wall. Finally one
shot struck the wall above the barrel
head The bullet bounded back toward
Lincoln, and just passed over his head
1t struck me as getting dangerous, and
evidently the r,rasideuf concluded So
too, for he said: Getting close. heyi
Tad?' and the pair went down into the
grounds, where Lincoln continued his
practice I see the dents have been
whitewaahed over" -

We will presume that the government
first exercises its undoubted prerogative
of eminent domain and condemns for
public use the national highways of the
country now used by private individuals
for private gain. What is the next
step? Compensation for property taken.
How and in what manner? First. by
direct offer of fair and reasonable com
pensation. If the offer is refused. the
second step is to appoint appraisers and
have them affix valuation or damages
to be paid the owner of the property
thus condemned for public use.
What then would be the fairest. sur
est and most appropriate thing Tor a
commission of arbitration a7d ap-
praisement" appointed by the people, to
do, in order to arrive at just va nation
of the railroads of the United States?
The question should be easily answered.
They should go to the records of the
New York stock exchange and see what
their market value is. That is, by an
examination of the record of the past
sales, they should see what private in
diyiduals are in the habit of paying for
railroads when they buy them. For
the owners of the stock shares of a rail-
road company are the owners of the
railroad, subject TO the mortgage
upon it.
Let as then take a glance at the
record and see IL we can find out what
railroads were selling at during the

to urge upon you any conflicting with this sent
ment, but believe the time has arrived when the ques-
ton of improved roads should receive measure OF atten
ton hitherto accorded to it. Our sister states have
deemed the subject of highways of sufficient Importance
to warrant the expense of state engineer whose duty
it is counsel with and advise the road commissioners
of the different towns upon this important topic. think
justified in saying that the needless waste of the

you will think it wise to appoint supervising engineer

your good judgment will dictate. But whatever
you may deem it wise pursue earnestly advise
that you take decisive action at this session, looking
toward an improved condition of our roads.
1t is evident that the prosperity of our State is retarded
by the lax and unsatisfactory system which now prevails
in large majority of the Nearly all of sister

three or four notes which one sings most

the pupil get one note clear cut, round,
