In tho Cascade Mountains, about
seventy-hye miles northeast of Jack
sonville, Ore, the seeker for the cur
ious will find the Great Sunken Lake,
the deepest lake in the world. This
lake rivals tho famous valley of Sind
bad the Sailor. 1t is said to average
1000 feet down 10 the water on all its
sides. The depth Of the water is un-
known, and its surface is as smooth
and unruffied as q mammoth sheet of
glass, it being so far below the noun
tain rim as to be unaffected by the
strongest winds. 1t is about fifteen
miles in length, and about four and
one-half wide. For unknown ages
it has lain still, silent and mysterious
in the bosom of the great mountain
range, like gigantic trench scooped
out by the hands of giant genie.

CLEVELAND SCORED.
Rev. DR.. Morrison, Well Known
in Kentucky, Gives the presi-
dent a Roast.

Some days since DR.. H. G. Morrison,
Secretary of the Methodist Mission
Board, and who is well-known in
Kentucky, was criticized by the At
lanta Evening Journal for some strict
ures he was reported to have made on
the Administration, and the Doctor
comes back after the following fash
ion. He says:
"In addition to the fact of dieap-
pointed people, there are three other
facts which take hold, a deep hold,
upon the consciences ofthe people.
"First-No man since Washington
ever had the influence on national
Legislation that Mr.. Cleveland had in
the beginning of his present term of
office. This fact the editor OF the
Journal will doubtless be ready to ad-
init. The peoplesgave him an ovation
which was unprecedented and we'll
nigh idolatrous. Opportunity was
before him TO place his name beside
that of the immortal father of his
country, and to lire in the American
heart for all coming time. But the
multitudes most interested have wait
ed for words of encouragement until
hope deferred has made the heart
sick.
"Second-The trend of that mighty
influence has been almost entirely to-
ward such legislation as would make
the gold shark richer and the laboring
man poorer. That influence has been
SO welded as to meet the appreciation
and never once provoke a criticism
from the representatives, of the OPP
pressive gold powers. They can COM I.
placently review his whole official
course and say: "Well DONE"
"Third-Amid the widespread desA,
titution and want amongst the laboring
poor, with $1,000 in his own city de-
pendant upon charity, with 100000
unemployed men in the United States.
whose wives :and children speak out
from their hollow eyes that consuming
hunger which no language can depict.
Still that mighty influence goes to.
ward such measures as must neces-.
sarily increase the powers of the op-
pressor and decrease the chances of

formed, the measure espoused, the.
word uttered to bring hope to the
heart of the husband and father
among the penniless millions, when
wife and little ones ask in hunger for
bread? Echo answers. "WhsYe rfe.
We do not censure the Journal for the
noble efforts to exercise and put the
best possible coloring upon the sad
failure. Of course that paper and its
honored proprietor have had recogni-
ton which we will in common appre-
ciate, recognition well deserved and
justly bestowed for true and faithful
service to the party. But after all
and over and above all stands out the
same fact in painful prominence-a
suffering and disappointed people.

Petty veXatiOns may at times be

Hints to HOusekeepers.

Clothes carefully folded and sprink-
led are half ironed.
Sprinkle the inside of damp gloves
with violet powder.
Much of the heavy cake and bread
is the result of the oven door being
banged when closed. Close the oven
as gently as possible. Nearly every
one opens ii gently enough.
The colored Japanese straw mattings
which are so generally used as floor
coverings are best kept sweet and
clean by washing them with a solu-
ton of salt and aud water after the
weekly sweeping.
Never allow meat to be placed di-
rectly on the ice, as the water draws
out the juices il is even worse TO lay il
there wrapped in paper. 1t should
always be laid in clean porcelain
vessel or on plate.
To clean old lamp burners, wash
and boil them in ashes and water, then
rub them with oxalic acid, then dry
and polish with fine coal ashes and
they will be clean and bright. Wash
the wicks and dry. Many times the
burners are condemned when only the
wicks are at fault.
A common mistake made in mend.
ing gloves is that of using silk to do it
with. AS the desire is undoubtedly to
make the glove look exactly as it did
before the unfortunate ripping took
place, the work should be done with
linen thread in the same shade as that
used in the original stitching.
Common alum In an iron spoon
over hot Goals forms very strong &C.
ment for joining glass and metal to-
gether. 1t is the best thing for hold
ing glass lamps to their stands or for
stopping cracks about their bases, as
kerosene does not penetrate it.
Housekeepers ought TO keep this in
remembrance, for sad accidents may
be prevented bv its use.
To color stockings light delicate
blue use bluing. Put into warm
water till the right shade, dip the
stockings in and set with salt and
water. Very handsome pink of a
delicate shade may be made by using
rose aniline in bottle and shade by
adding till the right shade is obtained.
Those are pretty set with warm alum
water.
The following drifts over from En-
gland. 1t will be appreciated by
every housekeeper who has ever en-
countered one of the "according-to
judgment" cooking authorities. A
woman visiting il Ireland was de-
lighted with certain hot cake served
at breakfast. From the native cook
of her hostess she duly got the receipt ::
"You must take more than you'd
think of flour, Ma'am, just what you'd
know of butter, the slightest taste in
life of baking powder, and then the
fill of the small jug of milk"
Girls who want to improve their
compilations are advised by an expers
to exercise ten minutes day with the
highest weight dumbbells they can
find. There are well known ath-
lete's system for physical culture X
teen different exercises for the leg and
six for. the arm, of which he takes
daily from ten to fifty, AS they send
the blood dancing through the veins
and accelerate the action of the diges-
tive and respiratory organs they can
not fail to brighten the eyes and skin
and improve the health ofthe body.

Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1894-10-05

THE Topeka State Journal of the Ist, inst.
contained dispatch from Kansas City to the
effect that the Democratic central committee of
the Second congressional district met at Olathe
on the goth ult., and that it is believed that.
fusion was the object of the meeting, and the
presence of Col. H. L. Moore, the Democratic
nominee for congress, added to the belief that
efforts will be made to get Willard, the Popu1ist
nominee, to retire. Chairman Breidenthal says
Willard cannot be pulled off, and Mr.. Breiden-
thai is eminently correct. The Populists of the
Second district owe Col. Moore nothing, but, on
the contrary, Col. Moore owes it to the Popu-'
lists to gracefully retire and give Mr.. Willard a
clear field. Two years ago, the Populist nomi-.
nee retired and the committee endorsed Col.
Moore If the Populists gained anything by
it we fail to see it. Let him now step aside,
and Frank A. Willard will lick Lawyer Miller
out of his boots But, let come what may, Mr..
Willard will remain in the race, and he will be
elected, though his majority will be smaller
than it would be with Moore on the track.

JUSTICE HARLAN, of the United States cir
cult court Of appeals, has reversed Judge Jenk-
ms notorious decision against striking work
men. Justice Harlan declares that the court
had no authority to restrain men from quitting
work. Several other points are taken up and
discussed in the decision and opinions given,
which are of as much interest to labor organic
atoms as the question of the right Of men to
quit. The opinion is given that workingmen
have the right to combine to better their con-
dition and to 90 on a strike for that purpose,
even though such a strike might interfere with
or wholly prevent the carrying OH of all employ
er,s business, provided it was not the object or
iuteutof the combination to so paralyze the bus
mess of the employer. But on the other hand,
if it appear that the object or intent of such
combination was the interference with the bust
ness of another through intimidation of its EN-
ployes, or destruction of its property, then such
combination became conspiracy, and as such
was proper subject for restraint by injunction,
even though no overt act has been committed
by the conspirators.

THE Illustrated American, of New York and
Chicago, for Oct 9th, contains an excellent pic
ture of Governor Lewelling and family, with
short history of the Governors life.
GOVERNOR LEwELLINC, Mrs. Mary T.. Lease
and Congressman Harris will speak at Ottawa
OH Wednesday of next week. 1t will be a ''red
letter day" for Populisn in Franklin county.
THE fact not single old party paper has Civ
ell a report of the tlree-cornered debate at
Graham, Mo-, between Mrs. Mary L. Lease,
Gov. Stone, Dick Bland and Attorney General
Bradford, is proof positive that Mrs. Lease
mopped the earth with her opponents.
IT is amusing to see the Kansas Republican
papers publishing the views of Boston papers
on political affairs in Kansas. These papers
won't publish the views of the thousands of eX-
Republicans in the state who have left the old
party The fact is, the Republicans ''aren't i'll
it" and they know it.
Mrs. LENA ELDER FULLER, of Quenemo,
writes us, on the ed inst. owe sang at Lacy
Crossing yesterday Saturday afternoon, and
at Scranton in the evening. There was a ter
rible rain, and Jesse Harper's clothes actually
dripped while speaking, for we drove twenty
five miles in the rain to make the appointment.
We were greeted by packed house"
The only charitable institution where there
has not been a scandal is the Orphans Home at
Atchison and it is in charge of Republican.
Lawrence World. And, strange to say, Mrs.
Lease is responsible ior its being i'll charge of
an honest man.-LeavenworthT Times.
That Lewelling has suffered Republican to
have charge of the Orphans Home at Atchison
is the only reason why some hellion of a Re-
publican has not dazed Ananias with a column
or two of falsehood about it.
WHEN will western farmers mechanics and
1aborers learn that it is not wisdom-that there's
not the first element of common sense-in their
sustaining political organizations whose sole
purpose is to tax the West for the benefit of the
East-to levy tribute on the fertile fields OF
Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and all the great West
New England and other eastern states? When
will the people awake to their own interest by
arraving themselves as one man against the cor
porate greed and power that has been fostered
by such men as Mckinley and Reed
COLORADO farmers have devoted so much of
their time to Governor Waite and Populism that
the Russian thistle is about to chase them out OF
house and home.-Le avenworth Times
Another lie out of whole cloth. If Kansas
Republican editors would devote less time to
malicious lying about the farmers OF Colorado
and Kansas, they would have little honor III
their own country. Lying has become second
nature to some of them, and when they have
not subject in Kansas, auch chaps as Anthony
invade Colorado. A few more weeks, and they
get such a fall that they will think the frament
has fallen.

THE CAMPAIGN.

The campaign in Kansas is one Of unusual
importance There are five tickets. Two sets
of candidates are working in the interest of the
Republican party, and, since the Prohibitionists
are few in number, it is virtually the Populists
against the field If the Populists win (and
they will), it will be the greatest victory yet
won by that party. 1t can, and will win II
every voter will do his duty The opposition
has opened and is conducting one of the most
dirty and INSCRIPTIONS campaigns that has ever
disgraced the annals of this or any other state.
If it were possible, shotguns and ballot-boX
stuffing would be resorted to, to down the Pop
ulist party. If the Populist party was compos-
ed of the worst elements of society, or even
aliens the warfare could not be less bitter or
less full of Islander. The best 1rien-the Drawn
and brain of the farms and workshops-have
been classed as idiots, anarchists and thieves by
the opposition.
Republican papers overflow with matter cal
culated to engender the most bitter hatred be-
tween neighbors, and, were it not that the men
of Kansas love fair play, Saint Bartholomew
massacre would not be among the things that
are impossible. There is something terribly
wrong with party whose leaders are capable OF
such atrocious treatment Of political opponents.
If Populist leaders were not all they. ought to
be, they are still infinitely better than the men
who so wantonly traduce their characters. Pop
ulisn is passing through an ordeal that calls for
wisdom and frmness. SANDER and abuse are
no part of the Populist campaign. That party
has not speaker on the stump who fails to dis
cuss the issues of the day in spirit Of fairness
Manliness and good will toward opponents are
everywhere apparent in the Populists ranks, and
these facts coupled with the clearness with
which the aims of Populism are presented ought
to win us hosts of friends, and doubtless will
in due time but we want to win NOW We
want to elect our state ticket, from top to bot
tom. We want, and we need the control of the
next legislature in the interest of all the people.
We want eight congressman.
Now, the candidates cannot do all the work
neither is it fair to require it of them. Every
Populist should be worker with his neighbor,
who, perhaps, is honest but mised. He needs
good laws and just administration as much as
do the Popnlists Show up his leaders and
their principles in the cornfeld or workshop.
Remember, we are all fighting the rings and
monopolies, and not our poor neighbors, who,
like ourselves, are involved in the same great
calamity. Do this in spirit of kindness, and
the victory is ours beyond peradventure.

HAVE you heard of the big Populist gains in
Georgia. The Democrats elected their state
ticket, but by greatly-reduced majority. Tom
Watson's congressional district went Populist by
a good majority, and he will be elected to con-
eress next month. Over forty members Of the
legislature were elected to the Legislature by the
Populists. 'Rah for Georgia
