tits an old and usually truthful ad,
age that uneasy lies the head Of the
politician" but we have discovered,
and is our pleasure to chronicle an
exception to this rule. Maj. Levi
Ferguson was elected to the office Of
probate judge in the fall oflS94 and
has ably discharged the duties
thereof 10 this time. Under ordinary
circumstances it would be expected
that he would be candidate for a
second term. But for several months
rumors have been aAoat that Judge
Ferguson would be a candidate for
governor of Kansas. Then again
rumors has it that he wants to
succeed Hon. Chester l. Long in
congress, and that also he would be
pleased to sit in the district judges
bench succeeding Judge Brunette;
and also that he would very much
like to succeed himself as probate
judge. Like all mankind, Judge
Ferguson naturally desires the best
plum offered. The query is with
Judge Ferguson just new, which of
these plums will take7 With most
men, the query would be, which one
of them can l get2 Thus we say he
is an exception to the rule stated in
the quotation made above. Judge
Ferguson should feel himself highly
honored at being given the first
place at the office pie counter with
the injunction to "take what thou
wilt" and leave US "what thou doth
not want" Few men, We say, are
favored. but we congratulate our
selves on the fact that the man so
honored is a Sumner county man.
They are very scarce and far between.

Whitelaw Reid, late minister to
France, editor Of the New York Tri-
bune and running mate of Benz. Har-
rison in 1892, once said: Americans
should dignity, not degrade, politics.
They should realize that to 60 into
politics Is to deal with the highest
objects Of human concern; and that
the pretended feeling Of contempt for
those who do. merely because they
do, Is the sure mark of snOb. Let
US learn that, next to the ministry of
God, the highest career open to hu-
man ambition is the service OF the
people," The chief difficulty with
our politics is that too many Of the
best citizens, ministers and others.
have kept hands off. They have
turned the whole public welfare over
to professional politicians who are
chiefly lawyers and bankers. The
best men Of the country have literally
been scared away from politics by the
professional politicians, aided by
their dupes In and out of the churches,
who stand ready at the beck and nod
Of their masters to cry, politician,

A fossilized preacher who recently

In this age Of progressive civiliza-
tion the world has become so accus-
toned to the existence Of the new
woman" that it has ceased to eithe
oensure, criticize or jeer at her as she
resOlutely holds the reinS and guides
her craft along the storm-tossed sea
Of self-reliance in competition with
her older brothers. But IL is our
pleasant duty to chronicle the advent
Of another and somewhat different
addition to our already favorably re-
ceived innovation.
We refer to that class Of young men
who have adopted as their style Of
dressing the hair that commonly
known as parting the hair in the
middle" and, have decided to hence
forth christen them as our New
Sissy"
If the New Sissy" succeeds in
making her impress on the future as
well as the "New Woman" has on
the past and present, and we believe
will on the future, 'she" will not
have lived in vain.
We extend hearty welcome to our
"New Sissy" and assure her of our
good wishes for the achievement in
the race for "bread AMI butter" of
that degree Of success which her
merits deserve. Like the New To-
man. the "New Sissy" cannot ex-
pect more.

an ordinance giving citizens power to

designate where the path shall be
built.
When a path is established none but

a fine of from one to $25, or imprison-

There can be no question but what
1t pays we'll to grade fruit before pack
ing and shipping to market. miseel-
laneous variety of sizes dumped hap
hazard into box will bring only low
price throughout, but the same fruit
properly sorted and graded into at
least two grades, neatly wrapped in
paper and Systematically packed, will
bring very much better returns. The
first grade will bring higher price
and the second grade will sell at about
the same price as could be realized for
the enetire lot if ungraded and pro-
miscuously packed. What is more, the
poorest grade is likely to sell to GER
tain class of customers not able to buy
the best, since they would be able to see
just what they are getting for their
money.
Choice fruit we'll graded and regu-
1arly packed will always bring the
highest market price and outsell any
other class of fruit on the market. AS
