fortune Of attending the tw~enty.frst
annual commencement OF the Concord
normal school. For one to have attend

equivalent to saying that ho did not

he. latest was her best. Such was the
verdict OF the thousand hearers. Both
normal and musical departments have
by their good work at this commence

regulations.

"Senator Brice, of Ohio" says the
St Louis Republic, "now holds the po-
litical caucuses of the Ohio Democracy
at the Waldorf Hotel in New York."
and it asks, ''is Ohio political Annex

the Democracy of Ohio permits its
leaders to be bought by those whose
interest lies in having it SO. The cir
cumstance is a reminder that our plu-
tocracy has imported, along with the
British Gold standard, a bit of the
great canker that gnaws at the vitals
of the Omitted" Kingdom. "Absen-
tee landlordism" is at the bottom OF
all the woes of Ireland-and many oil
those of England, which houses the

BROAD TIRE WAGONS.
There Is No Reason Why They Should
Not Be Used Everywhere.

(American Farmer and Farm News.I
While the subject of good roads is
being agitated in every part Of the
country those most interested in the
subject are doing their best to make
bad roads still worse by using narrow
tires on their wagons. Heavy loads
are drawn over our mud roads on these
narrow tired wagons and deep ruts cut
into them, that in wet weather make
them almost, and some times entirely,
impossible. l have sort of a pity
for man who urges his team along
muddy road, all the time grumblipg
about the badness of it, when he might
reduce the labor of his team from one
third to one-half by using wide tires
at very little additional cost to himself
and to the great saving of team and
temper. 1t is to be hoped that the
first legislation looking to the improve
ment of the roads OF the country will
be in the way of encouraging the use
of wide tires, for one narrow-tired
wagon will do more damage than
dozen with wide tires if the roads are
at all soft. No one disputes the
philosophy Of wide tires, and no one
seems to have any good reason to offer
why they should not be used. Our
farmers simply follow precedent and
60 on using narrow tires because their
fathers did before them. Lumbermen
and freighters use wide tires almost
universally and save money by doing
so, but it seems that farmers do not
care to economic in this direction.
The condition of our roads costs us
more than any other single item of
waste in this country, and the common
use of wide tires would reduce this
waste Of energy to large extent.
