bread as cheap clothes. No doubt our
friend, Mr.. Robert Beverly, would like
to get So bushel for his wheat, as he
did during the Crimean war; but those
who have to buy their bread prefer the
present prices. As a protective tariff
is the breath of life to American manu-
factures, if the manufactures are de-
stroyed of what use will the foreign
markets be, and what benefit would it
be to the farmers for the people engag-
ed in manufacturing to go to farming :?
Now they furnish home market to
the products of agriculture. In ex-
change for the home market Wilson
offers the Virginia farmers the markets
of the world (Which they always had)
where they are brought into competi-
ton with Indian wheat produced III a
country where the wages of labor are
about FIVE cents day.
1t is true that the United States are
not the ocean carriers they were fifty
years pgo; and the reason is that our
capital has been diverted to manutac-
lures and railroad enterprises. Instead
of ploughing the waves we have turned
our attention to internal development
and the building up of the West; sea
coast has been practically given to
Montana and Dakota. If Americans
don't 90 to sea it is because they can
do better at home and can't compete
with Norwegian and Italian sailors
who live on tallow candle day.
Ships are simply the vehicle of COM
merce. Our shipping has decreased
but our commerce is now thousand
fold greater than it was when the
prows of our vessels veXeG every sea,
and their sails were woven on an
English loom. We were then the poor
est nation in the world-now We are
the richest. Then we furnished ships
and foreigners the cargoes-now we
furnish cargoes and hire foreign ships.
There is no more reason for our own
ing the vessels that carry our products
abroad than for Virginia farmer to
own the railroad that hauls his corn to
Alexandria. There is nothing 50 de-
ceptive as an index of wealth and COM
mercial power as shipping. At any
time in Hong Kong harbor you can see
five or six Norwegian vessels to one
French or American. The reason is
their country is so poor the Norwegians
have to go to sea for a living.
The democrats have just nominated
for Governor of New York the only dem
ocrat in the Senate who voted against
the new tariff act. He will of course
be buried out of sight in the coming
election; not as punishment to Hill,
but TO his party. Mckinley is to be
the next President of the United States,
and now is the time to join the process

One self-regulating Thompson
Houston alternating current DYNAMO
with instruments for maintaining 1000
lamps of 16 c. P.
Two compound Edison dynamos of
low pressure with capacity of MAIN
tanning $50 lamps each.
One Edison dynamo of low pressure
for maintaining $50 lamps, or 80 horse
power for motors.
Two Thompson-Houston low pres
sure compound dynamos, each for
maintaining 200 lamps or Is horse
power for motors.
The lighting capacity of the plant is
therefore 1850 lamps of Is candle
power burning at one time, while the
total number of lamps connected with
the system, calculated for casual and
Intermittent use, may safely extend
to several times the above number.
The alternating current machine is
belted to the larger Ball engine, and
when doing full duty requires 200
horse power to drive. The two larger
Edison machines are belted to the
smaller Ball engine, and together
operate the three-wire system to which
all lamps within a radius of three
fourths OF mile from the works are
connected. More distant lighting is
supplied by the alternating current
machine.
Power for day use is furnished from
the three smaller dynamos operated
by the engine formerly used at the
Palace, though this set of machines
may be relieved or reinforced at a mo-
ment's notice, since the output for
lights and power is of the same char
acter.
The low pressure current is in all
cases carried first to centers of distri-
button, which arrangement when
completed guarantees uniform candle
power at all lamps, irrespective of dis
lance from source of supply.
The dynamos and other electric ap-
paratus were installed under the
of w. 1. Warmer, the
company's superintendent.

we would wake up from our sleep, rub
Oar eyes, and let the people know that
most everybody in this neighborhood
are wide awake and ready to begin the

energy than ever before. Our school
has been closed during the holidays but

everybody seems to be taking renewed

be grand prospects for it in the future.
The Alliance met last Saturday but
rs there were SO few present the debate
was postponed for two weeks when we
have An open meeting. The question
for debate on Jan. 18th is, Reselv ed,
''That the reform advocated by the
prohibition party is greater than all of
the reforms advocated by the Peoples
party" As this is question that taxes
up ali tine lives issues of the day, and
as the program consists of presentations
essays ard other things, we think that
everybody will be amply repaid by at
tending this meeting at the Church
schoolhouse.
Andrew Boutwell, was down near
Helena attending dance last Friday
night. He reports good time but a
small crowd.

DEAR EDITOR
A Happy New Year to all
This is the time for turning over new
leaves. Let us do it quickly for we may
not have long to stay.
Oar hearts are undoubtedly tender,
We mean to he good aud do right;
But the vows that are made in the M morling
Too often are br ken ere night.
We sqlander the present in making
New vows for some far future day;
Forgetting that life is but loaned us
And we may not have long to stay.
Oh, let us make use of the hours,
1t may be the opportune time:
That God, in his wisdom has sent us
To aid In this life work sublime.
We cannot be sure of tomorrow,
So let us make sure of today;
Fill it's moments with grand noble actions,
For We may not have long here to stay.
Let US cheer the ia int hearted aid fallen,
Help them onward and upward toward heaven
Let us scorn not the crrIng but tell them
The joys of soul that's forgiven.
Let us use every God giving talent
To smooth down lifes rough ragged way;
Then the word will be blessed by our coming,
Whetherlengthy or short be our.stay.
DON'T
Live single hour of your life without doing
exactly what is 20 be done. Go straight throulh h
it from beginning t. end. Work. play, study
or rest whatever it is take hold at once and
finish it up, then to the next thing without
letting any moments drop between. 1t is
wonderful to see how many hours these
prompt people contrive to make of & day, 1t
is as II they picked up the moments that the
careless one lost. and If ever You fnd yourself
where you have SO many things pressing upon
you that you hardly know how to begin let me
tell you the secret! Take hold of the very first
one that comes to your hand and ou will find
the rest fall in line like company OF soldiers
and though work may be hard to meet when
it changes into a squad 1t is easily vanquis1cd
if you can bring it into line, and don't forget
tnat when you have anything to do to go and
doit. Count that day lost when low descend
