GIVE BOTH SIDES.

The GoIdsboro Caucasian also holds
that the newspapers should give both
sides. Read what it says:
us it not noticeable that the news
papers and the men who harp about
the contributors of the State Business
Agency not getting back the full
amount contributed, should be so silent
about the ~depositors of banks that
have broken, and who have lost heav-
lily. The men who invested in the
State Business Agency did SO not as an
investment to pay cash dividends, but
to pay dividends in the shape of i'm
proved trade arrangements. In fact
the contributors instructed the State
Business Agency not to run the bust
ness for a profit, but at cost, so as to
save as much as possible for the rank
and file of the people. No man con-
tributing expected the return of the
money. He gave it as a free gift. The
men who deposited or invested their
hard earnings in banks did so for the
security and interest or cash dividends.
They have lost all and secured no bene-
fits in the meantime. If these partisan
papers continue their lying misrepre-
sensations, they need not be surprised
If men even of their own party lose
confidence in them"

with pleasure at the drops Of water,
When in the course of the ceremony the

devil and all his works." Jackson stiff
ened himself grimly ana replied in his
most emphatic tones:
Il do, sir, | renounce them ALI"
bringing smile to the face of those
who knew what was The more Iitualistic
reply. A lady who was present said,
after the ceremony, "The President re-
nounces the devil for the baby but not

ded laughingly:

me devil if my friends find me the re-
verse;"

WASHINGTON CITY, Dec. 17.-There is
one little protected industry which the
government has of it's very own and in
which as vet it has no competition
that is the importation aud propagation

domestic purposes. One Miner W,
Bruce, formerly news gatherer on tie
Omaha Bee, gifted with fertile mag
ination and author Of a marvellous story
of an ice covered city discovered by him
in the interior of Alaska, first conceived
the idea. He succeeded in getting an
appropriation from the government for
the urpose of going to Siberia and buy
ing a herd of reindeer. There we're
philantrophlsts in the interior depart
ment IN those days, and $4,000 year
las appropriated for the mail tenance
Of these animals and especially of their
keepers. The following Endorsement of
the work accompanies suggestion OF an
increase in the amount of the annual APP
preparation to $4,000:
