THERE are more lnnocents IN the
country than is generally supposed.
There are people who believe the price
of hay and barley is governed solely by
legislation. There is no use in referring
people of this kind to statistics because
they will not believe them. They believe
and ask not why.

IL seems that Debs uses railroad pass

es over roads which are N the General

the head men of labor organizations have

for the best. But their leaders use them
for their own selfish purposes.

DEMOCRATS should understand that d
great deal depends upon the election
this fall. The new tariff bill has not had
much over months trial yet. The bust
ness of the country is reviying and this
IS due to a large extent to its provisions.
Give it trial for two years more and
then if it does not fulfill expectations we
will get rid Of II.

M. EUGENE ICKPIN- french war ONCE
treated him so abominably that he pub
lished a pamphlet which contained Sc
we're reflections upon government Off
Gals, and Turpin was imprisoned Tie
government, however, allowed Turpin
to continue work upon his schemes, and
the result Of his prison labor was a nys-
FERROUS engine of war that the inventor
claimed would wipe out an entire army
in / ) minutes and destroy such a city
as Paris in an hour. Turpin was releas-
ed and offered to give the machine to
France if the government would remove
from his character the stain inflicted by
imprisonment and restore his cross Of
the Legion of Honor The officials were
hard hearted and refused. In moment
Of anger Turpin went to Belgium and
began negotiating for the sale of his in
vention to frances enemy, Germany.
When this rumor was published, France
went wild, and there arose such a howl
of execration at the war Office that the
government hurriedly asked Turpin to
return to France. He is now there, and
Franco is to enjoy the murderous bene-
fits Of his engine Of destruction. There
is still haze Of mystery surrounding
the invention, but it is a monster can
non that works like machine guns Of
the maxim and gatling principle The
cannon is provided with an automatic
loading apparatus and may be fred
about once in three minutes. At each
fire it discharges 25, 600 shells, which
will explode with terrific effect upon the
enemy. By methodically turning the
gun its line of fire forms an arc cover
ing IL kilometers and wiping out every
living thing in its path. The gun, &C
cording to Turpin, is a veritable glut-
ton for ammunition and must always be
accompanied by enough shells to load q
railroad train of many cars. Whether
the gun viii do in practice what Tur-
pin claims for it in theory remains to
be seen

Suffered.

Shelby Thought He Meant It ana the HOGS
Suffered.
The following is to take the place of the
George Washington Ratchet story. It is
sent in with the assurance that it can be au-
thenticated if Senator Cullom denies it;
When he was a young man, before be
dreamed of listening senates or looked like
Lincoln, he was farmer boy. One day ia
August when the blsterlng heat WAS
parching the crops, and even the dog fennel
hung its head, young Cullom was on the
porch Of the farmhouse trying TO keep cool
and Kill flies. The boss of the farm sat
on the far end Of the porch doing. He was
aroused by passing neighbor, who called
out to him that drove of hogs had broken
into the watermelon patch back of the
barn. The watermelon crop was about all
that was left. The old farmer had had
some trouble with his hogs before, and this
information aroused his religious nature
and shattered it
shelby he roared at the young man.
Yes, sir, - was the respectful reply.
Take the shotgun and 20 down to that
melon patch and shoot every ID hog You
find. Pm getting tired Of this. They have
ruined everything on the farm. and now
they are into the melon patcn. Hurry up
The young man moved away, and the old
man resumed his seat and again fell asleep.
The city reader probably needs to be inn
formed that in the country. where there is
no such thing as cold storage, the killing Of
a hog Ia August or at any time in bot
weather Is like throwing away money. In
those days particularly there was no way
of curing pork Ia summer.
An hour later young Shelby returned to
the house, put up the gun and resumed bis
place on the porch. The old man, half
asleep. opened one eye on linn and asked 10
a lazy manner.
well, Kill 'em2"
"Kiiled seven. and two got away" was the
equally quiet response.
WHAT shriehed the old man, jumping
from his chair and standing before young
Shelby in u rage. you don't mean to tell
Poland ChinAs-this time Of year when they
are uselessg You young sapheadf'
Yes, sir" responded young Shelby with
a meek obedience that reminds one OF the
Washington Ratchet story; Il did as you
told me. sir: only let two get away"
The old man looked at him AS he would
at a curiosity. His rage quieted, and be sat
down on the floor of the porch and nuIsed
his head for some time After awhile lac
called out quietly:
''Shelby MI
Eyes, sir was the response.
"Come here. You say you killed seven
of them shoats in the melon patch-seven
shot 'em-killed 'em deadt'
KILLED 'em dead, - responded Shelby
The old man looked at him, took of bis
big straw hat. famed himself for mo-
ment and then said, with some solemn de-
liberation:
well, Shelby NJ, / wish / may be id
If YOU amt the d--dest, most obedientest,
id obliging farmland that i ever had
around. If you keep on mindin this way,
you'll be president some day"
THANK you, sir" replied Shelby, who
went in the house to hide his bushes. The
old man looked after him and said TO him
self:
Il reckon he thinks mean it. Still this
