John Lind seems to be somewhat
of a chopper" himself. First he said
he wouldn't, and then he said he
would. Probably John has had
vision since his first declaration, of a
decidedly silver tint. John Lind is a
smart man, and we dare say if he had
come forward in an honorable way he
would have stood some chance of be-
ing elected. But when a man like
Lind tries to take advantage of his
popularity to divide the Scandinavian
vote for the express purpose of aiding
the Democratic of Populist party he
will find out that the voters are not
all fools, and will not be fooled by
any such schemes.

WHICH IS YOUR WAY?

The man who is satisfied to let
somebody else do the thinking for
him will read but one or two papers.
He will gulp down what the editor OF
his party paper tells him, go to the
polls and vote the party ticket, and
then retire within himself, quite sure
that he has done his duty. But the
man who wants to know the 'other
side" and to be able to make up his
mind for himself will not be content
with this plan, least of all during
great political campaign like the
present. He will read Public Opin
ion published at New York; get all
sides of every important public ques-
ton, political, social, religious, edu-
catlonal and others. And then he
will form his own conclusions and
act upon them, Specimen copy free.

Free Trade Bryan.

If the farmers, stockmen and sheep
growers think they will desire any
benefit from the election of Bryan as
president they will be doomed to dis
appointment, as according to his
speeches delivered in the fifty-third
congress he has set himself down as a
free trader, especially soon all articles
on which tariff would be benefit
to the farmer. He treats with disdain
the welfare of the sheep growers.
He certainly could have had no idea
then Of running for president, as he
actually spurned aside with scorn the
welfare of the farmer, the king of the
land, and the laboring class. The
following is an extract of his speech
which is on the records of the fifty
third congress:
"Wool, for instance, is the chief raw
material in the wooden industry, and
it has been placed upon the free list,
Whether the tariff on wool has raised
the price Of wool to the sheep grower
above the point it would have reached
without a tariff, is question which
has been discussed rather than set
tied. Speaking for myself, it is i'm
material in my judgment whether the
sheep grower receives any benefit
from the tariff or not. Whether he
does or does not, whether the wool

The prettiest of them all was pin- wheel cushion, painted with roses and forget-me-nots, and stuck full of bright, shining pins. This was for the miner, who, she privately believed. used pins occasionally in making his toilet, hay ing no one to sew on his buttons. Per haps it was for that reason she gave him the choicest of her little collection; or, perhaps, she had other reasons. It is so hard to tell why woman does cer- tain things. @
 With her presents in little basket, she stole out into the hall where, by the great roomy fireplace, the stockings were already suspended. As she was a trifie late, hers was last in the row.

Heading the row was the hose that protected Mrs. Malloy's stout extremities from the chilly blasts, of thick, heavy yarn of mottled blue and white. Next was one of soft, fine cashmere, which fitted the No. 5 foot of the Ohio lawyer. Four small stockings of varying sizes owned by the young Malloys intervened be- tween it and the one belonging to the widow in the second floor front.
 Those of the two school-teachers came next-one severe black one be- longing to the elder, the other. with CO., quettish clocks of red, the younger pre- ceptress owned.

 All that day he thought about her and the brave fight she was making to support the boy and herself, and the more he thought the more he longed to take her into his arms and tell her that henceforth his strong arms and willing hands would fight the battles of life for her. In order to do this the miner would have to overcome his natural timidity and fear of the gentler sex, and it was doubtful if he could ever get up sufficient courage.

 "That will never do," she declared, half aloud, and, slipping it down from the mantel, with murmured poor fellow" she rushed off to her room with the big sock in her little hands, and, getting out her work-basket, darned the great hole neatly and swiftly.
 "Now he won't lose all of his toys" she said laughingly to herself as she started to replace it.
 The mine owner had happened to en- ter the hall just as the young woman disappeared with his property and gave a low whistle of amazement. He wait ed, considerably mystified, in a dark corner, until she reappeared and hung it up in its place again.

 How One Wife Managed in Christmss
 Presents for Her Husband

 "Why not?" asked her companion.

 ''why, what do you mean9"
 "wen, gave him a half dozen fine handkerchiefs one Christmas. He ad- mired them very much, but thought they were altogether too good for everyday use, so he asked me to put them away for him. Next Christmas. when was wondering what could get for him, I happened to think of those handkerchiefs. There they were. at the bottom of the drawer. took them out and put them Into a differ ent kind of a box and gave them to him on Christmas morning"
 And he didn't know the dlfference2"
 "Bless you, mol He was perfectly delighted. After he had shown them around he asked me to put them away for him. and, of course, he never asked for them again"
 "So you've given him the same hand- kerchiefs every seasonP"
 "Yes, and it's been a great scheme, because I've never had as much shop ping money ae I wanted, and these handkerchiefs have been quite saving. I suppose he thinks he has two or three dozen handkerchiefs put away some where, but he'd never think to ask for them. They're too fancy for him"
 "Well, think it's shameful to treat man that way. You're almost as bad as Cynthia Merritt's husband. Last Christmas he bought her n sofa for Christmas present, and she declares that he's the only person that ever used it."-Chicago Record.

I've noticed. as I've looked about on Christ mas days gone by, "A lot of little children who have failed to catch his eye, Who when the Yule was at its height had not O single toy Or bit of peppermint to fill their little souls with joy. And there have been some persons who have ventured to remark Of credence in his being they had not the slightest spark, For had there been a person of his kind twas very sure There'd be some signs of presents in the novels of the poor. Which is a point he'll have to meet, with many of that sort, If ever he shall find himself haled up be- fore the court. But I, who've always found him most at tentive unto me, Am certain that he does exist and works most faithfully. But certain too am that in these Christ masses of late He's found his work, unaided, for his strength by far too great; sf And hence think that he'd do we'll to form a company, And everywhere throughout the land to place an agency. And all who love him for his labors in the days now past Can put their names down in his books-the stock should go right fast. It doesn't seem that it could meet with failure, just because They must be few who would not take stock in old Santa Claus. Carlyle Smith, in Harper's Magazine.

 The two schoolma'ams from the east were especially mirthful; the young lawyer from Ohio unbent and smiled broadly; the owner of the Sue cess mine laughed aloud, big, hearty laugh, and even the little stenographer smiled. It was the first time she had done so for week, for she had lost her position.
