dread of exposure, and these con-
constraints are worth to any county
many times the cost of all its news
papers. If a revival of religion is
started the newspapers spread the
good story and aid in bringing in the
multitudes. If railroad is being
built the first place the promoters
visit is the newspaper office. Ii a
political campaign comes up the peo-
pie look in the papers for guidance in
exercising even the high duty Of yot-
ing. If a new kind of cattle, or
horses, or chickens, or potatoes, or
corn has proved of special value, the
people learn of it through the news
papers. If school is started the
principal burden is on the papers for
carrying the enterprise through, In
fact, no subject of real public cor
Germ can exist without the newspaper.
And it is often valuable to com
munity, not by what it publishes, but
by what it refuses to publish. 1t is
not to much to say that the man whc
does not read the newspapers is set
down as bloc-khead and an ignor-
ant dullard whenever he attempts tc
| converse with his neighbors. Take
| all the newspapers out of the country
| and all kinds of business would be IL
confusion in five years and the profits
of all would be lessened more than
ten per. cent. annually. No mar
would know the worth of his pro
| ducts, no merchant could hope tx
| quickly unload stock of goods, nc
intelligent citizen would risk investing
money in the county or doing bust
ness with its citizens. Whenever yoI
have good newspaper in you
county it is property in your Owl
pockets to see that it is made pros
porous and extensively circulated

Remarkable Experiments when sh1N

remarkable experiments Which sh0N
row Easily the Eye IL Deceived.
some very remarkable experiments
which any one, with a little care, may
repeat for himself, have recently beer
made on the perspective effects Of coior.
If on q screen Of black velvet placed
about 10 feet away large letters arg
nasted some blue and some red, the let.
tiers will not appear to be at an equa'
distance from the eyes. To some per-
sons the red letters will seem nearer
than the blue letters, while 70 others
the contrary effect will be manifested
the blue letters appearing nearer tnan
the red ones.
To produce this curious effect poth
ewes must be used. When one eye ls
closed, the letters are all seen az the
same distance On opening the other
eye one set of letters Immediately ap..
pears to take a position in advance OF
the others.
The explanation offered is that sort
of stereoscopic effect is produced IN lne
eye itself depending on color. Inc I'M
age of a blue object is shifted by the
eve toward one side, and that OF a red
object toward the other side, the cause
of the shifting being the eccentrlclty OF
the pupil of the eye.
This eccentricity may be increased by
holding a black screen close to the eye
SO as to cover one-half of the pupil.
| The effect is best viewed by screening
both pupils at the same time. II on
looking at blue and red letters on black
background placed 10 or II feet away
YOU see the red letters nearer than the
blue ones, screen off one-haf OF the pu-
pill of each eye, on the outside, ard you
| will then see the red letters retire be-
hind the blue ones.
If you screen the pupils on the side
toward the nose, you will see the req
letters advance apparently still farther
ahead OF the blue letters.
If, on the other hand, you naturally
see the blue in advance, screen the IN
ner side of your pupils, and the red vii
come to the front.
1t has lately been shown by DR.. A
J D. Waller that very beautiful effects
can be produced with one eye alon'
/ when, instead of letters, red or blue
rings are pasted on a background o.
the opposite color. Placing red rings
on blue paper and using the right ey'
with the inner side of the pupil GOV
cred, the appearance is that of circula
red hillocks resting upon blue ground
To produce this effect in its highes
degree the paper should be held to tn
left and sloping in that direction. Whel
the outer side of the pupil is screened
the red ring become circular trenches Il

1t is very funny to note how the
lawyers of the last Legislature are
explaining their connection with laws
declared unconstitutional. Some
poor granger is fathered with them.
But question the people would like
answered is-was there not judic-
iary committee in either house.
These committees are composed en-
tirely of lawyers. They passed upon
the constitutionality of all bills.
How we'll they we're versed in their
work is exemplifed by the fact that
up to date, no law tested in the courts
has come out with flying colors.

The Moorhead Weekly News very
unjustly attacks Brother Pease, of the
Anoka Union, in a recent issue. Ii
says:
Bro. Pease could not wait for the
banquet that Minneapolis is to give
the editors at the expense of the may
ors contingent fund, but hastens te
st. Paul and feeds and drinks with
Col. Monfort. Pease is becoming
such nabob and connoisseur that
we doubt whether he will recognize
the common run of editors at the
time of their annual meeting.
This slush and blubber will carry
very little impression except to show
how much some people can talk from
the depths of silk tile and how
little they really say after all.

With JOY we welcome the prodigal
son back into the old home of Re
publicanism. In returning, the editor
makes this confession: This paper
will as heretofore, be published in the
interest of Kenyon and the farmers in
this vicinity. 1t will be strongly Re
publican. A few years ago we be-
came estranged from the grand old
party, and joined the Farmers ALI
ance. We caught the political fever,
our pulse ran high and our mind
wandered. But unto us have been
administered four bitter pills. Dom
nelly's egotism, Democratic doctrine,
Cleyeland's despotism and Kansas
anarchy, and we are perfectly cured.
With this declaration we leave our
selves in the hands of our friends.
