Hon. Holmes Conrad, Of Winchester,
is highly spoken Of for the United
States Senate, from Virginia. We
know Of no better 81 more deserving
selection that could possibly be
made. Mr.. Conrad il conceded gen
orally as an able man, and an unswerv-
ing Democrat in advocating the doc
trines Of his party. His reputation is
national, and it is recognized in a man
ner thht he can Justly feel proud Of.
He possesses fine manly bearing, and
the essential dignity that would add
credit to the national government. As
a lawyer he is without q peer, Is q
politician he is unequalled, as a bust
ness man generally he is looked upon
as being shrewd, cautious, and Of prac-
teal Judgment. What better selection
conld be made 7 This, in our opinion,
represents the true type Of man, that
should guide and assist in the admins
tration Of the governments affairs.
Mr.. Conrad is in every sense Of the
word a typical Virginian, and possess
es those social and agreeable traits
hat 60 toward making n popular
with his constituency.
During the last campaign be gave
himself up entirely to the Democratic
cause, and lostno opportunity to nd
vance the interest Of his party. All
though the State Of Virginia he re-
sponded to the various calls for his
services. and in many other States, and
all admit his energy and effort to make
his party successful. Then why not
recognize his services and ability by
electing him to the national councilR
This would be but an humble tribute,
and one that might lead to greater
achievements and recognition in the
future. Thecommonwealth Of the grand
old State Of Virginia in time past has
never allowed her deserving sons
to be passed unnoticed and without
some fitting tribute, and doubtless
they viii see fit to reward Mr.. Conrad
with the highest possible gift in their
power, by sending him as their repre-
sentative to the halls of our national
government. Such a selection will
keep the old State up to her usual
standard, and viii bring forth the
loudest praise from all sections. Mr..
Conrad will make record that will
not only add credit to his constituent
cy, but to the administration and the
public at large as we'll.

Following is the speesh Of Senator
Faulkner after the aucus-nominations:
Representatives Of Democracy Of
West Virginia, ] desire in brief words
to acknowledge your generous action
in naming me to be my own successor.
The proudest moment of my life was
when through the voice of Democrats of
West Virginia, Republican falsehoods
were nailed by the votes of the people
and my actions endorsed and now seal
ed Ny this action. Those who reoccn
Ply public position find many trials and
make many sacrifices, 1 am not UNI
mindful of the fact that there is a sil
yer lining in every cloud, and the high
est honor which ever came to me was,
when ! received the endorsement of
those whose humble servant | am.
You have placed upon me the
grayest responsibility which has rest
ed upon the representatives of the
Democratic party for thirty years. For
the first time, thanks to the sovereign
voice Of the people, the Democratic
party is placed incontrol Of the nation.
For the first time in thirty years that
grave responsibility rests upon the
representatives Of the Democratic par
ty to formulate the legislation Of the
country. and to direct the destiny Of
the millions Of people in our magnii-
cent republic, | hope there will be no.
faltering in the great work of reform.
But, my fellow countrymen, when that
is done, when that grave responsibility is
placed upon the shoulders of represen-
tatlveS Of Democracy in the federal
government. you must lend your aid
and assistance, because the response
bility is exceedingly great.
'0ne Of the most important meas
ures to which the Democratic party is
committed is the reform Of the system
OF taxation which takes from the peck
cts Of man and transfers the hard
earned substance into the pockets Of a
favored few. All Democrats in the
National Congress are in full accord
with that noble and grand leader, who
IN 1887, regardless of his interests
IN the approaching campaign, did not
hesitate TO assert the right Of people
to demand Of their epresentatlvesthat
the onerous system Of taxation which
imposed unequal burdens should be at
once changed.
"To-daySthere is a great struggle on
the subject Of whether the Senators
shall be chosen BY the people or BY
their representatives. lam pleased to
say with pride, springing from a West
Virginia heart, that the Representatives
Of the people in the Legislature OF this
State have always honestly voiced the
sentiment Of their constituents. But
it is not true of many other Legisla.
lures. Ihope the people Of West Vir
ginia will vote for the amendment j
submitted by the national Congress. 7

You Can't do it Again.

When the great financial results attained by policyholder
in the Mutual life are shown to the confused agents of rival
companies they exclaim: Yes; but they can't do it again.
They are willing to admit that the dividends paid by the Mr
tual Life Insurance Company of New York on all its earlier
policies are the largest ever paid by any company on similar
forms of insurance, but it is claimed that the Mutual Life can
not duplicate its former dividend results on policies issued
now. Let us see:
On Policy No. l15, 62S, issued November I, 1870, at age
twenty-five, for 5000, annual premium $99.45, ordinary le'
plan, at the end Of first twenty years the dividend additions
amounted to 81, 10000, making the insurance value $6,9O5O0 as
a death claim, which is 634.40 more than the amount of prem
iums paid improved at 10 per cent. compound interest.
On Policy No. 124, 638, issued September 2, 1871, at age
twentysix, for $4,000, annual premium $1o2.0 90, ordinary life
plan, the dividend additions in 1891, at the end of the first.
twenty years, amounted to ~$1,8L7.0O, raising the policy to ST.
|847.Oo and being $420.7 rs better than all the premiums paid i'm
proved at 10 per cent. compound interest per annum for twenty
years.
ThGs it appears from the records Of The Mutual Life In
dividends, ending in 1890 and ls94ydeclared on policies issued
in 1870 and 1871 have been as favorable as those declared in the
first twenty years on policies issued in 1843. 1t is, therefore
quite reasonable to assume that the future dividends of this
Company on policies issued now, on the 'stwenty-year distribuaI
ton PLAN Il will be as good as those realized in the first twenty
years by the holders of policies issued in the early years Of the|
Company on the old tsreversionary addition plan,' on which
dividends were declared every five years and addict to the policy
at their insurance value.

YnE OLD ALGONQUIN MIAL
Will Be Started to Work Tomorrow
(Friday) Morning.
The Mill Will Run on Ore From the
Puritan Mine and Will Re Oper-
ated by That Company-Under-
stood to Have Plenty OF Ore.

Manager John McKechney, of the Puri-
tan company, was in town yesterday and
informed The MAIL representative that
the Algonquin mill at Hasmark would
be put IN operation on Puritan ore to-
morrow morning. He also states that
the company have sufficient ore taken
out at the mine to fully justify them in
starting the mill, and that the recent
discovery on the 400-foot leyel guaran-
tees them season OF greater prosperity
than has been enjoyed at any previous
time.
The starting up of the. mill will not
only give employment to number of
men but will 60 quite a way toward
stimulating many branches of business
in Phillpsburg. Mr.. McKechney has
always bought his supplies from home
merchants whenever he could, and IN
this way mutual benefit is derived.
Everybody admires the pluck and
stability Of this company in not only
keeping their regular force of miners at
work throughout the panlcky season but
also from the fact that they are now to
start their mill with silver at such a
ridiculously low price.
The operation of this mill, though
small in comparison with that of the
Granite or Bi-Metallic, will greatly as
sist in tlding over the hard winter now
upon us, and it is the sincere wish of
everybody that there will be no limit to
the success of the Puritan from now on

Cultural Notes on Tomatoes.

In a bulletin from Cornell station
Professors Bailey and Corbett announce
additional items in the treatment of to-
matoes or confirm previous ones. EARLY
setting is important, giving the plants a
longer season in bearing before frost.
Leggy or long stem plants should be set
out nearly fat, half the stem being Gov
cred. Killing plants is Of no advantage,
nor is trimming. Single stem training
gives more and earlier fruit. EARLY SOW
ings gave earliest fruit, but the heaviest
crops came from late sowings. Nitrate
of soda is a good partial fertilizer. but it
is Of To benefit in very poor soils.

Burning For Centuries.

Here is an instance Oft fire that has
been burning for centuries. According to
the testimony Of the Duchess of Cleve-

Raby castle has never been suffered to
expire. This castle is perhaps the noblest
and most perfect specimen of feudal
architecture in England. It was IN the

When Queen Bee Is introduced,

A correspondent in American Bee
Journal writes:
Here is way to tell whether a queen
is safely introduced when released
among the bees. In fifteen or twenty
minutes after you release her disturb
the bees in some way by smoking, jar
ring the hive, etc., and if they do not
pounce upon her at once shut up the
hive and go on and give it no further at
tention regarding the introduction Of
that queen. A queen is never safely in
troduced until the bees show her royalty
or feed her, and / might say she is only
safe in summer when she begins to lay.
