should steer clear of anything that

A disposition is developing in the
East which is considered safe for gold,
to allow the Middle Western and
and doubtful border states to select the
candidates. A majority of Iowa, I'LL
nois, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee and
Alabama delegations seem to be for
Watterson and consequently the Blue
Grass editor and orator seems to have
an undoubted lead.
J. M. Falkner Of Alabama, who is
very firm in the opinion that the ticket
nominated here will carry his state, is
one Of the active Watterson advocates.
His argument is that Watterson would
take the stump and rally the gold Dem.

inclined to push Senator Villas forward.
1t is said by those in a position to
know that the latter does not want the

as a foil for the present Watterson SEN

a new candidate will be taken up.

Efforts are being made to induce
Senator George Gray of Delaware to
reconsider his f1at-footed decision not
to accept the nomination, but appar.

in some quarters a feeling Of resent.
ment against Senator Gray, because as
chairman Of the gold Democratic con.
ference at Chicago he did not appoint
the national committe which he was
empowered to name by that conference.
His critics say he hesitated too long to

Z. W. Davis met with a severe
accident last night. While he was
unsaddling a broncho at the livery
barn the animal kicked him twice
on the arm. 1t is thought by the
doctor that a small bone may be
broken; anyway his arm is very
sore and in all probability he will
be unable to roll a cigarette on a
bucking horse for some time to
come.

It is little use for the local edi

It is little use for the local edi-
tor to waste his lungs and sprain
his back in trying to boom his
town when the citizens ell stand
around with their hands in their
pockets and iDdifferently for
something to turn up. If the cap
italist and business men don't
put their shoulder to the wheel
and do little boosting, it is USE
less for the editor to try to boom
things. He can write "boom" arti-
cles till he gets hald-headed but
if the citizens themselves do not
take hold anti push, the town
will forever stick in the mud.
Of what use is it for the local
paper to suggest improvements
and new entArpriseaif the sugges.
tions are never acted upon? One
man cannot boom the town. 1t
requires the concerted action of
all the citizens. When one man
shoulders a town and attempts
to carry it, there are always a lot
Of cranky kickers who are always
ready to jump on top Of the load.
Unity of action is what counts.

Isl,'T it just wee bit queer
that while the export price of tea
(average for all grades) at the
places of export in Japan 43
cents per pound. American mon
ey, that Americans pay an
average Of ten times that much
for it? If you do not believe the
statement about the export price,
send to the secretary of state,
Washington D. c., for Consular
Report No 16S and look on page
130 and you will have official
evidence. If our government
did its duty, imported the tea,
sold it at cost, 1t should not cost
over six cents per pound in any
hamlet where the postal system
reaches. But then our govern
ment is not in the business of
serving its citizens and our peo-
pie pay spectators and peculator
seven prices for tea.

A Hot Neat her Tail.

It was a piglet's tail which
needed scratching that caused
considerable merriment to those
who were fortunate enough to
witness the pigastrophe. Place,
Pasco, Washington, where, Sec
ond only to The Yuma Desert,
old Sol concentrates his heat at
a ratio Of i8 to 1. A number of
piglets were sporting in pond
near the railroad track. One OF
them, desiring to scratch him
self in the locality of his caudal
appendage, attempted to do SO in
the water, but was unsuccessful.
Thinking, perhaps, he could
better perform the operation on
the railroad, he forthwith pro-
ceeded to do 80. Upon arriving
at the top of the grade. the
Pendleton Eaet- Oregohian says,
the water still dripping from
him, he placed the end OF him
which needed scratching on one
of those overheated rails, when
lol steam began to rise, and the
piglet jumped and squealed and
turned his head to find where
the mistake had been made, Wit
nesses state that the affair was
ludicrous in the extreme, and
that the last seen OF the piglct hi
was still sizsling.

A History of His Life.

Geo. Meyer was horn November, IL,
1923, at Felicity, Clermont county Ohio.
He died October, %, 1896, at Maple
wood, near Mitchell, South Dakota.
Brought up in Felicity Presbyterian
church, he became member by pro-
fession of faith at the age OF twenty.
On that memorable day, four other
brothers and sisters joined, and his
Oldest brother was ordained ruling
elder, to so remain in the same church
till his death ffty-two years afterward.
He was married May End, 1S4S, to
Sarah J. Graham of Marion, Ohio. She
was then teaching in Felicity Ladies'
Seminary, in which building the cere-
mony was performed.
He received diploma from the Bib
lical course OF Ohio Wesleyanuniversity
in 1851. After taking course in the
Hydropathic Institute, N. Y. City, he
he practiced as physician several
years..
In 1853 he moved to jackson county,
Iowa. Here we're born the three
youngest children and here he trans
ferred his church membership to the
Methodist denomination. He remain
ed there since, except tie Dakota
years before the founding of the M. E.
church at Mitchell. He moved again
in 1869. From his Black Hawk county
homestead, four years later, Mother
Mover went before to the better land.
The last residence was established in
Dakota. He was pioneer of 1879. ln
the midst of activities and experiences
known to all, for loved ones and for
Christ, ended life's race at the age OF
seventy three. Beyond father and
mother death has not entered the fam
lily circle. 1t consists of Wilbur and
his wife, Emma Taylor Meyer, of Napa
California: Flora and her husband
Rev. Nj. E. Chapin of Aberdeen; Ed
ward. Frank and Carlota of Mitchell.
In young manhood he was actively II
the forefront of abolition. He always
championed uncompromising prohibi
ton. HIS last utterance in public
assembly, was Friday evening pre-
ceding his death. 1t was pleading th'
temperance cause. For seventeen year
he did Christian work among tn
Floravale neighbors. He improves
every opportunity in Sabbath Schoo
and by his private life to win souls TO
Christ. A neighbor offering a fey
words of prayer after Mr.. Meyer ha
passed away, thanked the Lord for tn
good influence of this Christian brother
All the years he had lived among then
praying that all who had known hin
might follow his example. All hi
children, and even grand children {
age, have honored his example b
claiming the covenant, and publicl
uniting with the church of Christ.

Talked for the Democracy.

Democracy had it's inning at the
court house Saturday and W. o. Tenn
pie of Rapid City did the battery work

at the meeting, which had the regula-
tion court house number, and introduce
ed the speaker. Mr.. Temple was ad-
vertised 10 make a democratic speech
but wherein he differed from the usual
populist speeches was not apparent.
The gentleman presented much of the
same talk indulged in by previous
speakers.
