Van Allen was nominated for
office simply because he was a rich
man, and Cleveland has thus intro
duced in our American Republic the
system of an official aristocracy
based upon inherited wealth.
The present policy of the ruling
parties is free trade to old world
pauper laborers, and a prohbitive
tariff on their goods. How would it
do to reverse the system, and place
the prohibitiVe tariff upon the pau
per- iaborers and free trade on their
goods 1t does seen that it would
cost the industrial class of this
country less to take care of their sur
plus goods than the surplus "pauper"
laborers, which the manufactures and

take the places Of American laborers

Fifty Dollars Per Capita not
Enough.

The demand that $50 per capita of cur
rency should be put in circulation by the
government was frs; made public by the
Farmer's Alliance, and was afterwards
adopted as a plank in the Peoples Party
platform, which qualities the demand by
adding "not less" than that amount. Thie
amount was arrived at by computing the
amount per capita in 1865, at the close OF
the war. by dividing The amount of all kinds
of money then in circulation as nearly as
the sum could be arrived at, when divided
by the population of the whole country.
This was rot fair estimate of the money in
actual circulation per capita at the most
prosperous period of the country, excluding
the States in rebellion. The calculation
which gave $50 per capita included ten
millions of the population of the States in
rebellion. The sum of money at that time
in circulation was almost exclusively con-
fined TO the population of the loyal States
and spread over the South very slowly, the
impoverished people of that region haying
but small means with which to buy money
until they had created some wealth by
peaceful industry, which required the great
er part Of the years 1865 and 1866.
The per capita circulation confined to tb,

How I Became an Odd Fellow.

or THE MIDLAND JOURNAL.
The goat, the goat, the bearded goat,
With horns and hoofs and hairy coat;
In my diary made heightened note,
How one night in May rode the goat.
He was beast of wondrous size,
With long limbs and CLASSY eyes,
And beard down to the very floor,
With horn some two feet long, or more.
Ye Gods if there's a time to try our mettle,
And misgivings in our minds to settle,
'Tis when through the mysteries we float,
Astride the old Odd Fellows goat
Three times 1 was compelled to ride
The ugly beast round the lodge room, wide,
And when 1 made the fearful mount,
My hearts pusations all could count.
Twice did make the circuit fair,
With hold on tail and horns and hair,
Till in the third attempt, and last,
When had thought all danger past,
He pitched me clear. over horns and head,
And left me on the floor for dead.
But when 1 revived, with courage frail,
The old he hoat had vanished, head, horn
and TAIL
And was applauded by the brethren all,
As the pluckiest Odd Fellow ever in the hall

Condemns Gambling at The Fair.

~S~4S%~A-AS -
At the last meeting of Cecil Farm
ers Club held at Woodlands, the farm
of Mr.. Joseph Coudon, near Perry
vile the following resolutions offered
by Mr., Henry S. Coudon were adopt
ed by a unanimous vote of the club :
WHEREAS, the so called Agricultu
raj Society of this county, is the out
growth of a movement made some
time ago by this club, for the pur-
pose of advancing the interests of its
members and others engaged in
agriculture,
AND WHEREAS, several meetings
composed fer the most part of neigh
boring farmers were held on private
grounds, which meetings although
not largely attended proved to be of
considerable interest and advantage
to those for whose especial benefit
they were instituted.
AND WHEREAS, in order to extend
and enlarge the opportunities for the
beneficial effects likely to flow to the
community from such assemblages,
it was deemed wise to secure per-
manent place of meeting.
AND WHEREAS. since the change
was made, radical innovations
having no relation whatever to the
fundamental objects of the original
organization have been instituted
which without the least semblance of
justification on the score of useful
ness to the cause of agriculture. are
without doubt calculated to work a
decided injury to the entire COM
munity in a moral point of view.
Therefore Resolved, That the
present method of conducting the
fairs or shows is not in accord with
our views, is not calculated to sub
serve the true interests of the farm
ing community, and that as interest
ed parties, we enter our protest
against the practice of instituting
and encouraging the varied species
of gambling that are openly and con.
spicuously conducted on the grounds,
that we believe it to be an undeniable
fact that gambling is one Of the chief
sins Of the age, and that instead of
allowing it to be fostered and en-
couraged in the name of agriculture,
we as representative men should
publicly express our views, and we
further believe that our Legislature
made grave error in giving it the
sanction of law. And we ask our
representatives who are to assemble
at Annapolis next winter to have the
act legalzing pool selling repealed,
at least as applicable to this county,
and failing in that to have the sup
port given the Fair from the State
Treasury Withdrawn, and if those fail
of accomplishment, we in the name
of the Cecil Farmers Club ask the
managers of the Fair TO have the
word agricultural" erased from the
catalogues.
Every farmer in the county should
heartily endorse these resolutions
and express their approval. by sign,
ing petitions condemning the gambl
ing end horse racing institution mis-
called the Elkton Agricultural fair
and the $4,000 which is appropriated
from the state treasury to the ten
fairs which have a capital of $40 200
should be turned over as a Farmers
Institution fund, or Withdrawn from
the fairs. These horse raging. gambl
ing, balloon sailing and other circus
performances under the cloak OF
agriculture cannot be too strongly
condemned by farmers

BY Eating Sweet Cake Taken From n Load
of Stops and Refuse.
PITTSBURGH, May la family named
Sauter, residing at West Liberty, Pa, q
few miles out of Pittsburgh, were pois-
oned Saturday by eating sweet cake.
One boy is dead, another child cannot
recover, while the remaining members
of the family, seven in number, are in
critical condition. Sauter keeps a
dairy and raises pigs and poultry for
market. On Thursday he gathered a
large load Of slops and refuse from
stores and houses on the south side Of
the city with which TO feed his stock.
Among the stuff was found several
stale sponge cakes. Part Of the cakes
were given to his family to eat and the
rest were fed TO the chickens. Soon
after all of his chickens were dead.
This, however, did not warn him that
the cakes contained poison and his five
children ate the remainder. The chill.
dren were seized with convulsions. A
doctor was summoned, but fve-year-
old boy was dead before he arrived.
The life of three-old-girl is despaired
of. The physician thinks that the
other members Of the family will re-
cover, although they are very i'll. The
coroner is conducting an investigation.
