What with the Increase and Improvement OF the
breed of horses and the introduction Of the pneu
matte sulky in harness racing there has been a
wonderful reduction in the standard time for trot.

the speed Of the average of to-day in these
times a 2:5) horse is fit only for the county fairs
and the minor meetings of the provinces. The
trotter that cannot do his mile in 2:2O is of pre-
cious little account as campagner, and some
horsemen whose field Of operations is in the Grand
and Western Southern circuits want to see three
miles in the neghborhood of 2:l5 before they

by-less than iify-ive horses all told has now been
attained 10y something like 200 trotters. The in.
iuence Of the pneumatic sulky aid to in
creased speed is made apparent by the fact that
since il first came into use at the beginning of
the Grand Circuit of 1892 the number Of
horses having records OF 200 better has been
more than doubled. In other words more trotters

Teach the Boys About 1t.

AT home and at school the
boys should be taught the natur-
al effect of alcohol upon the pro-
cess of human life; first, they
should be taught that. it can add
nothing whatever to the vital
forces or to the vital tissues-that
it never enters into the elements
of structure; second, that it dis
turbs the operation of the brain,
and that the mind can get no help
from it that is to be relied upon;
third, that alcohol infames the
baser passions, and debases the
feelings; fourth, that an appetite
for drink is certainly formed in
those that use it, which destroys
the health, Injuries the character,
and in millions of instances be-
comes ruinous to fortunes, and to
all the high interests of the soul;
fifth that crime and pauperism
are directly caused by alcohol.

Gently in Music Hall, Boston,
Miss Willard said, 1.-The saloon
keeper has not on the face of the
earth a more genial, lovable, i'm
placable foe than Col. George
Washington Balm, of Kentucky.
His motto like his character, has
always said, Il do not question
the motives of men; l try to ar
que the merits of the case" His
boyhood illustrated the difference
between good and goody-goody.
Vigorous and manly, a stalwart
for the right, the little fellow
was wont to walk from the conu-
try home, where Christian par
ents nurtured him in the love of
God and humanity, a round dis
lance of twelve miles to attend
the regular monthly meeting of
the temperance society. He is a
knight of the new chivalry, not
carpet knight of meaningless
conventionalties. He might not
crook the pregnant hinges of
the knee that thrift might follow
fawning, as he picked up lady's
handkerchief, but for twenty
years he has bent himself sturdi-
ly to the task of picking up and
placing in her hand pure white
ballot. Every utterance of his
comes from lips that have never
once profaned the name of God
or spoken lightly of woman. If
all men lived as he has always
lived each home in the nation
would illustrate our white ribbon
creed of white life for two.
He is fore-gleam of the future,
a prophecy of what shall be, and
as woman l bring my tribute to
him here and now and thank him
from a grateful heart in the name
of good women everywhere
throughout the land he loves :

LOOK OUT FOR THE BLUE CROSS MARK ON YOUR PAPER

inent authority that municipal misrule
is 1.-The one conspicuous failure OF
American politics" follows as a natur-
sl-conseduence of such degeneracy,
and is true alike Of cities under Re
publican and Democratic control Each
accuses the other Of extravaganza in
Congressional appropriations, and both
are alike guilty. Each protests, when
out of power. against infractions of the
civil service laws, and each when in
power violates those laws in letter and
in spirit. Each processes fealty to the
interests of the toiling masses, but both
covertly truckle to the money power in
their administration of public affairs.
Even the tariff issue, as represented in
the Democratic Mills bill and the Re-
publican Mckinley bill, is no longer
treated by them as an issue between
great and divergent principles of gov
ernment. but is mere catering to diff
ferent sectional and class interests.
The attempt in many States to wrest
the Australian ballot system from its
true purpose. and so to deform it as to
render it extremely difficult for new
parties TO exercise the right of suffrage,
is an outrage upon popular govern
ment. The competition of both old
parties for the vote of the slums, and
their assiduous counting of the liquor
power and subservency to the money
power. have resulted in placing those
powers in the position of practical arbi-
tiers of the destinies of the nation. We
renew our protests against these peril
Gus tendencies, and invite all citizens to
join US in the upbuilding of a party
that has shown, in five national cam
paigns, that it prefers temporary de-
feat to an abandonment of the claims
of justice, sobriety, personal rights and
the protection of American homes.
15) Recognizing and declaring that
Prohibition of the liquor traffic has be-
come the dominant issue in national
politics, we invite to full party fellow
ship all those who, on this one domi-
nant issue, are with us agreed, in the
full belief that this party can and will
remove sectional differences, promote
national unity, and insure the best well
fare of our entire land.

buggy, FIVE miles into the coun-
try on an unknown road, to car
ry the same cheer to the county
poor-house.
This Thanksgiving dinner is
an established custom with our
Kings Daughters, as is also a
gift of fruit and Christmas cards
on the birthday of the Kings Son.
The men who Joined us, and
about fifty put on the white rib
bon, we organized as Miss Will
lard recommended, iuto a Home
Protection Club. / do not know
if we caught Miss Wizards idea,
but ours is to be a sort of total
abstinence political club. Their
present business is, to keep the
pledge, to extend their member
ship, and to read, study and de-
bate the great reform questions
of the day; with special reference
to the drink problem, and the eff
feet of prohibitory laws on trade,
on morals, on health; and to dis
tribute Temperance literature.
Our INTERIOR OBJECT is to
have them educate themselves in
to the Prohibition party. They
are all practical men of sound,
good sense, and need only study
and thought to make them step
boldly into the ranks where all
Home Defenders belong. AT
present they are auxiliary to the
W. G. T. U.
Last, but not least, more hope
full than all, large Loyal Tenn
perance Legion has been formed,
and our Union is no longer child
less. Bros. Culpepper and Kill
gere held special meetings for
the children, and numbers have
become church members.
While we acknowledge we owe
to the "revival, we know that
that it was not born full grown.
A Union of twenty faithful mem
bers, with devoted President,
has held together for years, sowing
seed, which has suddenly quick
ened.
Now, dear Mrs. Luckie, this is,
l know, too long, but you have
not before heard from Vicksburg.
The LEADER is an important
factor in linking together the
State Unions, and if our Home
Protection Club does not sub
scribe for it, to a man, l shall
feel almost like leaving them to
"mother' themselves.

The Texas Christian Advocate
says: Zone of the arguments!
constantly used by liquor trade
politicians is that prohibition
does not prohibit. If not, why
notl Simply because liquor
dealers are not, as class, law
abiding citizens. Yet this is the
class whose personal freedom"
to work ruin is so preciousin the
eyes of great statesmen. When
ever this argument is used, score
it as a threat. Where prohibit
ton is voted let its friends see
to it that prohibition shall pro-
hibit in spite of liquor dealers
and politicians"
