MISS IRWIN HUNTINGTON.
Read before the Mississippi Press Associa-
tion at Greenwood, May 10, 1894.
Soft the Master speaketh by the Lake Of
Galilee:
"Go for>h and teach all nations the charge
give to thee"
Editors, dear brothers, builders Of the univer-
sal thought,
Leaders Of the age, Knights Templar Of Rel-
gion, Commerce, Art;
Thus the Holy One did speak in old unto the
Twelve around,
Through reyerberating eras, 10! His accents
still resound
Still the high mandate is given, still the mis-
sion broad and true
Unto new apostles wating-pressmen to each
ofyou.
You, the unanointed preachers in the sane
tum's holy place;
You, the uncrowned Lords of Kings, seers,
prophets of your race,
To every man who wields the pow'r of journal
istic sway,
In all lands that link the sunset with the
maiden dawn of day,
To each of you associates in our own State
Press-attend---
To preach the wide Eyangel of Peace and
Love to men.
To purify the nation in the fire of the Word,
To purify its counsel with the Gospel madeth
heard,
Make clean the lands home altars, and lead
Alright its youth,
To nourish aspiration with the mama of the
Truth.
To purify the hearthstone, Oh ! God your Office
bless,
Is, Mississippi Editors, the mission of the
Press.
Associated workers, It's yours the sacred
might
To lead your time and breth rem from darkness
into light,
Der the gateway of your temples to place
Opinions bar,
That never Priests may enter save such as
Priestly are;
To guard your legislative halls and courts
without a fear,
Demanding of who'd enter, "Dost bring dear
honor here ?"
To purge the homeland ballot of filthy crime
and stain,
To make the polls one watchword-Integrity
not gain
To clise the hue and cry far sounding as yor
can,
He who would rule the nation must be &
Christ-hke man.
And If in this convention there's man of Coo
to bless,
Let him rise and pray among us for the Mis-
sion of the Press.
Then scorned be the brother whose righteous
ness is sold
To political ntriguers for petty lust of gold
Scorned be the brother whose holy columns
lend
Themselves unto pollution, the labor of til,
pen
To what is vile, ungodlv, being servile slave
away,
Alike with the unclean, and who only serve fol
pay.
Woe! Woe! cried jeremiah, and desolatior
Upon guilty people who honored not The
| pure;
And woe unto the editor, accursed let him be
Who guardcth not as jewels his journals
chastity.
Oh friends, be men and kingly men; unto
the ocean tide
OF vice that sweeps athwart the times blacl
tumultuous tide,
Lift up your voices on high, make felt your
| sovereign will,
Speak now unto the waters, speak and bio
| the waves "Be STILL"
0 purge the days of what soccer Of evil rot
ting lies,
Walk amid the Social tombs, say TO the deat
| "Arisc!'
Associates well met tonight, may the Re
| dcemer bless
And make more strong each one to fill tn,

The Candidate.


Roanoke IN. C0 News.
Once in life, at least, every man
should be a candidate for q town, city
or a county Office. 1t would be bene-
fetal to him. When man is a candi-
date his heart becomes filled with the
milk of human kindness which makes
him a friend to every man. He be-
comes so deeply interested in your
welfare, in the health of your family,
and in the progress your twin babies
are making in cutting teeth, that you
voluntarily wish every man a candi-
date and that elections were held
every time the moon fulls. II every
body were candidate what happy
world we would have.

crowd.
They experience age, don't they?
Not unless they marry.
Then why marry, il they have cter-
nal youth unmarried?
give it up.
Is an old maid more desirable
quantity in human economy than an
old bachelor
Infinitely, more or less.
Why?
Because an old maid is handy to
have around the house.
In what way?
She's Il woman.
But she has neither husband or
children.
That makes no difference.
Why doesn't it?'
Because, having no special claim on
anybody, everybody claims her as
present help in every kind of trouble.
Does she recognize the claim?
Ninety-nne times in hundred.
How do you know9
I've seen families-father, mother
and children-dominated, consoli-
dated and regulated by the benign in
huence Of an old maid.
How does she effect it?
BY having sense enough to know
what to do and energy enough to do
it.
Then she ought to make a good
wife?
Not necessarily, she is the missing
link which the family needs.
Is the old bachelor any good in that
line?
Once in a million times; by acci-
dent
Aren't some old maids sour and
ugly?
Yes, just as some wives are.
Then 1t isn't because they are old
maids?
Not as a rule.
Doesn't the Bible say it is better to
marry?
Yes, but marry" in that instance
doesn't mean the mere legal associa-
tion Of man and woman.
What does it mean?
1t means marriage of heart and soul
and mind and all perfect union.
Then the woman does right in not
marrying merely because other people
think she ought?
She does, indeed.
The old maid may be happy, then
Quite so.
But what OF the ties of love and
family and all that we hear about
among the married?
She doesn't have them.
But shouldn't she?
Not more than hundreds OF other
things she thinks she'd like to have
and doesn't, and still she gets along
very comfortably and cOntentedly
without them.
Does her nature cry for it?
Not so much In pactice as in theory.
Do old maids like men?
The right kind do.
What are the right kind?
Those who are cheerful and compan-
iOnable.
The sour ones don't, do they?
No: nor anybody else much.
Why is this?
They were born that way.
They wouldn't have been pleasant
wives and mothers, then, il they had
married
All the chances are they would not.
Doesn't disappointment in love sour
one?
1t does sometimes, but it should
not.
How can she prevent It.?
II the disappointment is the result
of a mans duplicity she should be
thankful that one disappointment has
freed her from a whole life Of it; and
II is the result OF a visitation OF Prov
idencc she should accept her sorrow
rcsignedly and let time do the rest.
Can a woman do this?
Millions have done 1t.
And been happy?
They have lived many years and
have been a Joy and comfort TO all
who knew them. -
Disappointment IN love is not, then,
the worst thing that can happen to u

BENEFiCENT ICHTHYCLOGlSTS.

Men Who Make Two Fishes Grow Where
None Grew Before.
The recent convention of the Amer
lean Fisheries society in Philadelphia
was of more than ordinary importance
to the people at large. 1t was not mere
ly gathering Of anglers to discuss the
fisheries question from sportsman 8
standpoint, but meeting Of the leading
authorities in ichthyology, fish cultur-
lists and fish commissioners from all over
the United States to consider the best
methods of propagating fish for the in
crease of the food supply.
The good accomplished by this or
ganization is very great and the possi-
bilities of its future incalculable As a
body and as individuals its members
have formulated and secured the passage
of beneficent laws for the protection Of
fishes and fisheries. But for them it Is
entirely probable that the rivers and
lakes east of the Mississippi would to-
day be entirely depopulated Of their fin
ny inhabitants, and even in the waters
Of the more sparsely settled west the
same danger was not unknown.
Before the formation of the American
Fisheries society laws for fish protection
were few and practically unenforced.
The whiteflsh industry of the great lakes
was practically abandoned, and the shad
fisheries Of the eastern coast had become
almost worthless. Now, owing to the
untiring and unselfish work of the vari-
GUS fish commissions and to the great
skill which they have acquired in the
artificial propagation of almost every
species of fish, the lakes, rivers and
smaller streams are becoming once more
fairly we'll inhabited.
From the hatcheries of Pennsylvania
alone within the past three months So,
900, 900 whitefish and so, 900, 900 pike

" Without a head" the literally de-
rived definition Of this terrible word
gives the casual thinker no AIDE
quate idea Of its real meaning An
archy, like . deadly and stalking dis
ease, manifests itself under various
phases. In France, Italy and Russia
it means the coully devised, cold.
FLOODED assassination OF rulers and
others hearing exalted political re-
n0wn. Ia the United States, at this
moment, it means the incendiary

cutting OF the arteries and thews oil

This is anarchy, and whether seen
under the guise of railroad strikes
boycotts. walk-outs," or the unwar-
ranted license and efirontery assumed
by the various trades-unions, it is all
the same. Socialism. in its present
political acceptation and widely ex.
tended use. is only q morally white.
washed sobriquet OF present day an
aroh,. fopulism is kind OF sugar
coated socialism, lacking nothing but
numerical strength and political pres

anarchism.
Thus it will be seen that a name
means something after all, and the
time has come when it behooves law
abiding people to have q name for
every form of crime and to give every
crime its proper name. Let nobody
be deceived. The signs OF the times
are written so plainly that the way

There Are Only Two Sides.

The present exigency tries the true
nature OF men quite as effectively as
did the war OF rebellion. Then it Was
q question of peaceable secession. or
fight. Now it is a matter OF utter sub
version OF law, or fight. Then, had
the demands of the south been recog-
nized, a remnant of the old govern
ment would have remained with rights
abridged only by the concession made.
If now the Government had taken no
steps to maintain its dignity and the
life and property of the people, the
very essence of free government would
have departed, and the nation become
q byword of reproach wherever law
abiding people dwell. But even now
may be seen rift in the clouds. Dan
ger to free institutions is passing away.
The crisis has passed. True citizen
ship has asserted itself on the side of
the Administration, irrespective OF
party, and every movement of the
Government has been attended with
the most signal results.
1t is probably as we'll that the issue
was thus clearly defined, and that the
contest came at . time when the re-
suit could be speedily attained. Des.
perate diseases require heroic rene.
dies, and the fiery ordeal through
which our nation is passing will DEM
onstrate that the boycott is an un.
American method; that the nation is
strong enough to deal with the an.
archial spirit imported from beyond
the seas, and that it can find no con-
genial growth on American soil. 1t
will show who, in each community, it
is safe to trust, and what combinations
should be avoided. 1t will clear the
atmosphere of the miasmatic and ma.
lsrious growths which have we'll nigh
stified Freedom before her defenders
had grasped the magnitude of the evil
sway. 1t will make true Americans
love their country more and guard it
better from harm.
The founders of the government
had little fear of invasion from other
powers. Their misgivings were that
1t might not be able to Withstand in
ternal dissension, but the war of the
rebellion, and the present momentous
epoch when safely passed, will demon.
strate that a form of government
which governs the least, may become
The strongest On earth when its pria-
ciples are enshrined in the hearts of
she people.

Some of these organizations think

cut down the support just that much.
