Recently something In tho nature OF
an epidemic OF diphtheria broke out In
our neig b boring town OF johnston. Ii
was bad enough, the epidemic, but 1t was
not nearly so Tad az II was talked and
printed about for the reason that there
was motive behind the printing and the
telling other than to record and trace the
progress OF what might come to be
serious thing TO the town and the city it
sdjoin'.
The motive was politics. In the out
break OF dreadful dIphtheria was discov-
cred fine chance to make political cap
ital and to attack and, IL possible, drive
from office an official who had the conf
dence OF the people but who, like most
public officials. had opponents. So the
diphtheria was exploited. 1t made no
difference how much exaggoration OF the
situation might alarm n community and
give disturbance 10 innocent people who
would never suspect so mean n motive as
personal politics to be behind pretended
reports OF so serious a situation. BUT
malice and personal grievance in politics
do not stop short OF the grave when en-
gagged in the work OF pursuing an oppo-
nent. The sanitary condition OF our
neigh boring town OF Johnston y in no
| such shape as sensational reports, using
| diphtheria as an instrument OF politics,
and entirely regardless OF the interests OF
the community, would have us believe.
The politicaf attack on the health OFF,
Ger OF the town has failed, dismally,
as II deserved to, and the diphtherla has
subsided. Johnston is all right, in a
sanitary way as in i'm every other way; as
fine q town ss there is in New England.
| The recent burst OF half-shot politics
would seem ridiculous had the tools not
done so serious injustice to the communi-
~ and given 50 much unnecessary and
cruel alarm TO It's people.

Thus says the New York Tribune on
 the bicycle and its uses: "A while ago il
 was asserted that the investment in
 bicycles reduced that in diamondF, spreading a cold wave over the latter trade in contrast with the warm and fructifyiDg one which descended upon the former. It IS now proclaimed that the statistical average of marriage is threatened with diminution from the same cause. It will require better tes timony than is yet offered to convince anybody of this. Bicycling is favorable 10 romance and promotes courtship;
 many q youth has proposed Cn his wheel who would not have had the courage to dc so on foot or skates or horseback. For the cuncta:iors and chicken-hearted there is the leisurely up grade favorable to deliberation; for the impetuous the down-hill scoot inviting precipitation. The process in the former case is rather slow, but in the latter moro exciting than shooting at pigeons cn the wing, and generally more successful. Dimin- ish marriage, fOreooth! The wheel promotes 1t, and encourages the senti- ment which leads up to it. But the pre- viousness of some Etatisticians runs Into eubsequency. A turn on the bicycle now and then would symmetrize tbeir personal and correct their srithmeticaI figures without reducing the matrimo- nisl chance Of any Of them"

 "An accomplished lady friend sends Gs tGe folIowIu2 brief but touching tribute to tie excellent and very prom isIug young clergyman. Rev, M. J. Me Juarnay. pastor Of McEwen's, Hum- 3hrey's county, who died on Tuesday last, and was buried on Thursday:
 h the morning of life, Iii the first flush of manhood, when the hand of science had placed on his brow, like soma fair chaplet the crown of genius, death snetcheG from among us one whose brief career in the sacred ministry endeared him to Gll who knew him. Too good for earth, yet we would have him liDgor here while we pray that hls gentle spirit has passed into the brighter realms of the angels.
 Having determined to devote his life to the service of God, he left at an early age hcme and kindred and all the ties that bound him to his native land to seek beyond tha broad Atlantic wider field for his missionary labors.
 His aged father and mother, while they weep in the distante Isle of the Sea as his requiem is borne to them by the winds of the ocean, will find peace in the hope that he has passed from death to life to enjoy the beatific vision of his Father in Heayen.".

De sailed over, the heats to be run on alternate days and continued until the ownership of the cup is decided. So far as can be determined by dispatches the actual measurements of Defender and the estimated measurements of Valkyrie, the allowance given by the challenger to the defender is about 28 seconds on a 30 mile course. As Walk yrie may be trifie less than 90 feet on the load water line, it is probable that the allowance may not exceed 9 sec onds. There is provision ln the agree neDt that any changes of load water line shall be counted double in estimat- ing time allowance, but as both boats are more than the length, they are about equal in that respect, Vigilant by the same time gets minute 20 seconds, and therefore does not win any race in which Defender started.

IRRIGATED REGIONS.

EVERY thinking man knows that the nations farms gre becoming exhausted. Tine area on which crops may bc grown without artificial irrigation Is already pretty we'll occupied. Dry farming Is a lottery. Irrigation meaDs maximum crops year after year, and no failures. The great empires Of earlier ages have been founded on irrigation agriculture, but Americans have hesitated and doubted until 6 crowded population now forces them to it, and these people who are now reaping marvellous profits from small tracts are beginning 10 re- aliz9 how much better of the would have been a decade ago if .hey had known what necessity has finally taught them.
 In the next thirty years, 70,G00.O9O people must be located somewhere. as the population doubles every thirty years. Possibly the farms of the older settled states may be subdivided ana irrigated, so making each smaller farm more valuable than the original one, but as 2 rule new people seek new pastures Moreover, agriculture always is i 1T greater success in an arid region for within the limits of the water condi-

And the Valkyrie Crosses
 the Line in the
FIRST GREAT RACE
The Defender 0utfooting the Val kyrie and reaching
 for the Lead.

At 2:0S the Vaikyrie is well ahead; both yachts on the stsrboat track near ly three quarters of mile apart. At 2a5 the yachts appeared likely to return the outer mark within 15 minutes. The Defender seemed to be reaching for it with sheets eased. The shift of the wind more to the south is q gres-a5 vantage to the Valkyrie.
 At 3:36 p. m. the boats were both o5- scured in mist. The wind vas cnly four knots and it is doubtful whether the yachts will tinish within the time limit of six hours
 At 4:4j the ValSyrie WAS leading, car T, ing her balloon jib, topsail and per- ceptibly increasing her lead.
 The ValkyrIe always ir front, though she has made two unsuccessful attempts to cress the Defenders bows. The off, cal starting times are: Valkprie I2h 20m 46s; Defender 12h 20m sos.
 The Defender crossed tue line at 5:2l; the Valkyrie followed al 5.29.
 HIGHLAND, Sept. 7-At II 56 the preparatory signal was hoisted; the course was east by south from Norman die by the seq. The Valkris crossed the line 12 ,2O5. Defender five second later. HIGHLAND, Sept. 7-Ths Valkyrie passed outside the Hole at 36 AM and as she did so put ont her jib. The defender followed suit minute later both yachts were about thlrd of the Way out te the Scotland light ship. They had hardly got away when were recalled the start, having been false. The uG9es boat then hoisted blue peter and yachts prepared for fresh start.
 They crossed the line unoffcially as follows; Valkyris 122O95; Defender I2.- 2G.l0. The wind at the start was east, blowing four miles; sky cloudy; moderate sea running. The two yachts held on to canvass under which they crossed the line, and when the tack wss made, the cup challenger wGs not more than a half length ahead and to windward of the Defender, while the Amer icGn boat seeemed to be outfooiiug the Britisber.
 The two racers at noon were heading towards the line close together. The rses at this point was extremely close but it seemed as if the British yacht had the best of it, and was apparently crawling away from the Defender. kt l2.43 the Vaikyris seems to be eutfoot- irg and out-poi0tiBg the Defender. The Valkyrie is now leading by two and quarter lengths. At l2.50 the Vslkyrie went about on a port tack ahead and to windward and compelled the Defender to go about under her lee. The Defan- der apparently outfcoted the ValkYrie after going around.
