PROPHECY BY with OF
SALEM"
And She Says Bryan And
Sewall Will be Elected,
But By a Close Shave.
Special Dispatch to The Enquirer.

North Tonawanda, N. Y,
Sept. 27.-At midnight last
night Nine. Milne tn, the Witch
of Salem, predicted that Will
lam J. Bryan would be the
next President Of the United
States. For Is years the mad
am has predicted the result of
the Presidential elections sew
eral weeks, sometimes months
before polling day. Not one,
according to newspaper clip
pings, has she failed to choose
the winner. She predicted Gar
fields assassination some time
before it occurred. At CIV
Point, South Boston, July L :
1884, 10 the presence OF $4,000
people, she predicted - Cleve-
lands election. In 1888 she
told Of HaIrison's success, and
in 1892 prophesied Growers sec
ond term. Last night, in the
presence Of a group of repor-
ters at 222, Oliver street, she
predicted Bryan's election, so
Mark Hanna and the rest OF
the Republican campaigners
had as well throw up the
sponge.
And she speaketh not with a
crooked tongue. Interrogated,
madam passed her hand over
her eyes, contracted her brow
and with a mighty mental
effort, and proceeded thusly:
"Yes, Mr. Bryan will win, but
the election will be close. Mr..
Mckinley cannot win, but, even
if be did, his time in the Pres.
idential chair would be short.
He has not long to live"
"How about the Vice Pres.
idency2" asked the News man,
"Sewall will win, but Hobart
will be ahead of Watson. The
latter will be far in the rear
replied madam.
Has Bryan any chance tc
carry New York;"
His chances for doing so are
good"
"Will Mckinley carry Ohio?'
was the next question.

a MEMORIAL MEETING.

pursuant to former rulings or Or
leans County Court, bar meeting
was held at the court room Tuesday
evening to pay tribute to the memory
! of the late John L. Edwards, in eulo-
| CYSTIC speeches upon the valuable life
and services of the eminent lawyer,
by prominent representatives of three
county bars.
Hon. L. H. Thompson, chief judge
presiding, occupied the bench. Resolu-
tions upon the death of Mr.. Edwards,
which had been compiled by a COM
mittee from Orleans County bar, con-
sistlng of Messrs. John Young, w. w.
Miles and F. E. Alfred, were read and
adopted by the court in due form,
which We publish in their proper
place in this article.
The principal address was made by
@. A. Prouty, president of the Yer
mont Bar association. Other eulog-
istic speeches were made by Hon. L.
FL. Thompson, Gov. Geo. N. Dale, re-
presenting Essex County bar, Henry
Bates, Esq, representing Caledonia
County bar.
The encomiums made by the speak
ers upon Mr.. Edwards legal attain
ments were strongly put. He was es-
pecially proficient in Chancery cases,
and excellent as special pleader and
in formulating legal propositions; had
great skill and aptness in stating a
case in clear and comprehensive Ian
guage, eloquent and convincing.
John L. Edwards, an esteemed and
beloved brother, after an active prac-
tice of the law for more than so years
in this county, as a member of this
bar, and as an example worthy of
imitation by every member OF our
fraternity, with the falling of the au :
tumn leaves on that October day, low
ing and beloved, passed from the
semi darkness of this life into the
eternal light and glory of the life
hereafter.
"He struggled in the worlds rough race,
And won at last oftv place;
And then he died; behold before we
Humanity IS brief sum and story
Life, Death. and all there is of glory"
Therefore:
RESOLVED, That in his death we have
lost brother Of more than ordinary
worth, a friend and support to every
young lawyer, an able and wise coun-
sellor, noble public spirited citizen;
whose wish and desire to the last, was
Ito promote honorable and fair dealing
among the legal fraternity; to place
the profession above reproach; to
elevate society and to improve our
methods of education.
RESOLVED, That as an advocate be-
fore a jury, debater before the
Courts, an examiner of witnesses and
as clear, far sighted practitioner he
had few equals; AS LAWYER his m tn
DDS were marked by the strictest hon.
esty, his standing among his brothers
was such as to leave the impress of
his noble life an inheritance to the
profession.
Resolued, That of him it may we'll be
said:
"Death makes no conquest of this conqueror.
For now he lives in fame, though not ia life"
ResOlUed, That we tender 70 the
friends and relatives of our deceased
brother our earnest sympathy and
encouragement in this hour Of grief,
and then point them to his noble
deeds and exemplary life and remind
them that:
He will be forever RENE m bered for
The best portion of a go 4 mans life;
His little nameless and numbered acts
or kindness and of love."-Erpress.

Why I Am. . Sand Bug.

L < n
Ever since the Fall Of Man, sand
and sugar, duly mixed at the holy
green grocers' ratio of Is to l, have
been concurrently used as dual
standard food producer.
But now the Pure Sugar Bugs, by
striking down sand, are trying insidi-
ously to enslave the people an eco
nomic crime Of gigantic, I may say Of
gigantissimic proportions.
Every spade full of sand dug, if
mixed with the sugar at the Is ratio,
will help to fill a score of hungry
mouths, and has constant tendency
to decrease the demand for spoon
full of pure sugar. Result sand ris-
es; sugar drops. Grasp this idea, for
it is the pivotal point of the automat-
ic sand-and sugar system.
Brand sand by statute as legal
and full-standard food equal to sugar
and you establish at once the parity
between sugar. and sand. See!
Is it fair, then; is it just; is it con-
stitutional to eliminate from the sugar
of the classes the sand of the masses?
1876, O21 times No! The spirit Of '76
revolts at the suggestion.
If every man, woman, new woman
and child in the United States would
go out with wheelbarrow and pick
up sixteen pounds of sand and legal
ly branded as pure sugar, how many
a burden would be lightened or sweet
ened7 Thereby according to Pro-
fessor Gotcogski over $4,000 .2l
pounds of the plain peoples idol
would be introduced into the human
system. So things would be easier
all round or all round easier. Un-
like most "Plutes' the Sand Bank
Owners love the Brow of Labor.)
| The Pure Sugar Bugs must know
in their own hearts that the nutritive
value of the food is properly based on
weight. Sixteen barrels of American
Sand, each 100 pounds, will weigh
just sixteen times as much as 100
pound barrel of sugar and that, too,
independent of the action of any ma
ton on earth. Over 80 per cent of the
Shouting Strength of the country lies
west of the Sand Bank river. Sand
no longer bsgs.; it defies &C. w.
