45 yards of it yesterday. The grand stand
also needs considerable repair.

Interesting Letter From an
Occasional Correspondent.
FARMERS AND POLITICS |
Distinguishing Characteristic Of the Man
who Harvests the Grain and the One
who Seeks to Harvest the yotes-some
Falacies of Writers.
Special HERALD correspondence.

PorTsvlLLE, June This is the begin
ming of the merry month when hay-mak.
ing and politics begin in earnest, 1t
seems these two industries go hand in
hand. The festive farmer will now be
very busy, if the sun shines, and the i'm.
perturbable and persistent politician will
60 around from bar to bar and from field
to field and tell Munchausen lies You
can only tell the farmer from the politi.
cal worker sometimes by the latter's car
rying an umbrella and wearing a laun-
dried collar, but usually he looks so much
ike the honest farmer in the assumed
honest expression of Countenance that If
it were not for the clothe, he wears and
his make up in political raphernalia,
especially small change (and very little of
1t now days. the two would be mistaken
for brothers, particularly when the man
with the umbrella gets the man with the
rake around the neck and whispers sweet
nonsense to him. and the litter is too
shrewd to mistake the false notes of the
former for expressions of love.
OLD TIMERS on DECK.
As the minstrel interlocutor would say.
I'VE have with us this evening for your
entertainment some of the old time
taYorites." The fact is there is nothing
entlclng in the outlook on the Democratic
side to bring mel out for office and we
have to deal mostly with the men who
have been so long on the boards that they
cannot do anything else and live Every
once in while the old Sam Sharplesses
and Sanfords will re appear and get off
their wormy chestnuts and then take a
sneak into obscure life again. In politics
there are few like them; they re-appear
perennially and rake off few ducats and
then draw their long necks into their
shells and pass into comatose state
THE CONGRESSIONAL FIGHT.
So, like the poor, we always have with
us the same material for the highest
honors There is nothing fresh in the
candidacy OF such men as Reilly, Brumm
and Shoener for Congressional honors
The two former have been honored bv
seats in the lower house at the National
Capital and the latter has long been
willing to have the honors thrust upon
him: They now re appear for the paudits
or hlsses OF an approving or disappearing
audience and when we say that we have
told 1t all For despite all the efforts of
political penny a liners to make news
paper readers believe that new activity
has sprung up and all that | am COM
PEELED to tell you that they prevaricate,
It's the same old fight. Reilly is sure of
his nomination from the Democracy and
Brumm and ShOener are { sing for the
lead. Whoever tells you that either of |
the latter has the best of his antagonist
only speculates; he merely shows his !
preference | have said in a former letter
that Brumm from a tariff-discussiOn
standpoint is the strongest candidate and |
Shoener with the rank and file of the !
people is ahead. Now that is the case in |
a nutshell.

Do the N ext Thing.

Don't live single hour of yonr life without doing exactly what is to be done in it, and going straight through 1t from beginning to end.
 Work, play, study, whatever it is, take hold at once and finish it up squar- ly; then the next thing, without letting any moments drop between. It is won derful to see how many hours these prompt people contrive to make of a day It is as if they picked up the moments the Invaders lost. And if you find yourself where you have so many things pressing upon you that you hardly know where to begin. let me tell you secret: Take hold of the very one that comes to hand, and you will find the rest will all fall into line and follow after like company of cr He'd soldiers; and, though work may be hard to meet when it charges in a squad. it is easily vanqnshed if you eau bring it into line.-EX.
