War the Republicans of the Sew

WHAT the Republicans of the Sew
enth district need for their candidate
for Congress in order TO be successful,
is some active, progressive Republican
who is in touch with the people and
there are plenty of such men who can
win in this District this year. We
think we know the sentiment of the
Republicans Of this section when we
say that they will deeply resent any
attempt to palm off on them any worn
out professional politician who has
held lucrative Federal Office for 20
years.

BOOKS.


The first thing to be considered un-
der this topic is "What are booksY'
In answer we would say that any
literary production of bulk, partlcu-
larly referring to printed matter form
ing volume, is book. But Is this
all there is to be said about books?
What is more pleasing on entering a
neighbours house, than to find the
library we'll stocked with good books.
We readily conclude that the occu-
some degree of intelligence, and are
educated 10 some extent
But suppose, on the other hand, we
were to enter II house and find no
library, no books, could we credit
those people with having intelligence?
Books were originally used only for
recording past events, deeds of daring,
ETC., and were not published to any
extent before the beginning of the
fourteenth century, but since that
creased especially since the art of
printing became known, and they are
now used not only as storages for past
records, but as means for instruction.
In fact almost all theory may now be
obtained from books.
The most common books, and the
most important in my estimation are
the Bible, the textbooks used in our
schools and Webster's Dictionary.
These are some of the many books
which are indispensable and should he
found III every home.
laying said only few of the many
things which might be said, | shall
conclude my talk on books.
