Benjamin n. Harrison was offered
$4,000 by a certain New York paper
to write for it a gossipy letter OF not
less than 100 words each day from the
reporters gallery in the republican
national convention. There are thou

Put these two facts together and then
consider some other things in onnec-

the same as those promulgated at
Omaha in the second declaration of in
dependence, July 4, 1892. | hold in
my hand a Photographic copy of the
ticket voted in Ohio in 1928. 1t is
headed peoples mot democratic ticket.
1t has for it's motto, "Gratitude, glory,
patriotism" and it's candidates, for
president, Andrew Jackson; Tor vice
president, John G.. Calhoun. And I
affirm. fellow citizens, here and how.
that up to that time there was no or
ganlzed party IN this country known
as the democratic party. Ir this cam
paign of 1928 the name of Locofoco
democrats was given in ,erision to
Jackson's followers, jus, as the name
populist or populite has been given to
the members of the peoples party by
OUR enemies. Afterwards the name
democrat was accepted and adopted by
the Jackson party, just as we have ac-
copied the name populist, but "Old
Hickory was first elected as a peoples
party man under precisely the same
conditions and for precisely the same
purposes hat inspired honest, patriotic
members of both the old parties to as
semhle at Omaha, Neb., on independ-
ence day. 1892.
Our opponents Of both the old PAL ties,
while virtually admitting the identity
OF our position with that of Jefferson
and Jackson on the financial question,
usually ignore the land plank and pour
out their walls of wrath upon govern
ment ownership of the means Of trans
portation and communication. That
they have little or nothing to say in
criticism of the populist on the land
question | attribute in part to the fact
that the doctrine we preach was first
proclaimed by Jefferson and is there
fore older than the democratic party,
and because of its popularity with the
masses, was championed by demo-
cratic press and orators whenever there
was a chance to secure political adj
vantage in their contention with the re-
publican party from '6S to '84, and in
part to the fear that the party's record
on this subject vital to the homeless
majority Of our people, would not bear
close inspection.
Answering the assertion, ridicule
and abuse of the tools of plutocracy
who d%enounce the transportation plank
OF u platform, populists maintain
that the principle is as old as the gov
eminent itself.
1t may be found in the declaration
of the founders of the republic, that
public highways are and shall be the
property of the people. Navigable
streams could not be owned in whole
or in part by individuals, corpora
lions, or by states even, but should for
ever remain the property of the gen
eral government.
Railroads are nothing more nor less
than public highways, and to permit
private ownership is a dangerous in
%novation on the doctrine so clearly. as
conceive, laid down in the cast of
dirt roads and navigable streams.

An Irrigation Experiment.

The great drouth from which 80 many
parts of the State are suffering render an
experiment, probably the fret in Mlssis-
sippi, with irrigation peculiarly interes
ting. 1t is being made In Clay county,
near West Point, by farmer on ton acres
or land. Tho waste water Of an artesisn
we'll is used The drouth prevails in that
section, but these ten acres look up like
an oRsia In the desert. He planted cotton
and corn and used moderate amount OF
fertilizer, and the result is marvellous.
Conservative estimates place the yield at
considerably oyer bale Of cotton and
over one hundred bushels Of corn to the
acre This, too, is on ordinary land, aud
not on prairie land. So pleased is he with
the result that he proposes 70 make reser-
voirs ofeeveral valleys by damm'ng them
and store up the spring rains, with which
to irrigate about two hundred acres OF
cotton land next year. With much Of the
land in Mississippi irrigation would be
impracticsble, but there are many streams
that could be utilized, and valleys tha,
O ,uld be converted into reservoirs, which
would render the lands contiguous indie
pendent Of the seasons This trial Of
irrigation, which has gone beyond th-
sage Of experiment, may r-volutionize
rmipg in many parts Of Mississippi.

for seventeen presidents. What q
world of memories the old man has.
You can't alarm him with fears Of the
nation going to ruin through the cur
rency question. He has heard the
cry Of ruin too long and too often. It
makes him smile to hear the Buys talk
ruin now. It's the same old tocsin
that pealed the alarn in Jacks ms
day, when the United STATES bank
was delnonetized, and he remembers
that. 1t was a bigger fuss than this,
he rays, though there wasn't so many
people n'r 81 many newspapers t."
make it. The old man came South in
his early manhood and rode ON tn
first ard only railroad Of any length

dan, e, a chronology, an antiquity.
There are some older men, but MOI
many who are as bright, as genial, as
con'ented. His long life of industry
is an object lesson tn the rising gene
ration, and I hope they will sere it
and think Of it. He has done no b'g
thing to Civ him tame or fortune, but
ne has fought goud fight and ret II
good example. Peace to you, my old

Are Dispensers Barkeepers2

The Winnsbnro Ne,Ds and Herald gives
the following account of the action OF th'
first Presbytery ofthe Associate Reformed
Presbyterian Church, at its recent meet
ing in Fairfield:
The most interesting discussion during
the meeting was on the temperance ques.
ton, called out by the following resolu
ton offered b, the Rev J. S. Moffett, tb.
last one presented by Judge Jones as ali
amendment:
Resolved. That this Presbyterv direc,
all the sessions under its call to proceed
in q constitutional way against those w be-
are at present connected with the diapen-
sary of South Carolina, in its p esant
form, whether they be connected with il
~ dispensers or clerks or renters Of prop
srty tor dispensaries or AZ hnndslDen for
dispensers or as members Of the board OF
cont. oil, county or state, to the end thai
the Church may be purg-d of this evil.
Resolvcd, That it is the dnty Of every
session at once to proceed in constitu,
tional way to discip inc every member OF
its congregation who buys whiskey at
dispensary HI a beverage, no matter how
moderately he may mean to use 1t, and
also to discip Inc every member whn
drinks Intoxicating liquor as beverage,
be it ever a, moderately.
Messrs NJ 't-tt, Chalmers, kirkpatrick,
Belts aud others defended these resolu-
lions. the principal SPEECH in opposition
was by Judge Ira B Jones. He presented
every argument that possibly could have
been adduced on bis side OF the question
in very able manner, and the Judg-
ulsy have the cnn-olation of knowing
that be failed to carry bis audiences tu
conviction only because be bad very
bad case. The res ,itiOns were adapted
ny vote of 81 to 10, d snlne of the
negative votes were given because of the
Iast reso utiop.

Can You Count q Billion 2

The following remarkable calculation
on the length of time which 1t would tai Q
G person to count 1000. 900 900 recently
appeared in an issue of the English Math-
emetician
What Is billion? The reply ia very
simple. In England billion Is million
simes O million This is quickly written
and quicker still pronounced. Blu: no
man is able to count 1t. You will count
100 or 40 minute. But let us suppose
that you go up ss high as 200 minute
hour after hour. At that rate you would
count l2 600 an hour; 2ss,000 day, or
los, ,l2O.0 600 in year. Let US suppose now
that Adam, at the beginning of his ex-
iatencs, had begun to count, had contin
ued to do 80 and was counting still. Had
such thing been possible he would not
yet have finished the task OF counting
9 billion.
To count billion would require per-
son to count 200 minute for period OF
9,5l2 years, 542 days, 5 hours and 20 min
utes, providing he should count contin-
uously. But suppose we allow the
counter IL hours daily for rest, eating and
aleepiug. Then he would need lS,O25
yeara, 3le DAYS, 10 hours and As minutes
In which to CON plete the task

Another Cure for Consumption.

We have noted recently the reported
discovery of two simple'and certain cures
for consumption Another Is now report
ed from Paris, where 1t is regarded as Of
sufficient importance to command the at
tention of the French Academy otScien-
ces, which has appointed com mission OF
experts TO examine and report upon the
c'ains made for it by its discoverer, DR..
Fraucisque Crotte.
The curative agent which DR.. Crotte
employs, as stated, is "formo!dehyde,
,etter known as formol," a strong AMI =
septic. The treatment is very simple, and
consists in administering the formol in
gaseous form by inhalation, which is aid
ed in its action by current OF static cleo
tricity passed through the chest.
"rhe treatment was suggested to Dr..
Crotte by the fact that post-mortems ha' 9
many times shown that nai ure itsetf
so,7etimes cures tuberculosis in its early
! sa:.ag.ss. These tell-tale scars in the lung
tissue have been found In persons who,
at some times in their lives, had suffered
from incipient consumption with ut
Knowing it. DR.. Crotte, therefore, 3
tempted to find some agent which woulh
assist nature in the process Of cure. He
tried formol because 1t was first used very
successfully for thu preservation Of meat.
Il is now largely employed in therapeut-
les.
DR.. Crotte, it is explained, has for
some months been testing his cure among
tbs poor of Paris, whom be treated graf
uitously at his laboratory. He has ad'
mi istered his remedy in more than eight
hurdred cases of ph.hisis, nearly all, he
says, cases which had been given up b.
other physicians. And he claims that in
six hupured cases the advance of the
disease has not only been arrested, but
practical cure effected" He does not
claim, of urse, to restore tissue which
has already been destroyed.
It is a little remarkable, perhaps, that
90 mapy "certain" cures of the dread di.
ease should have been made In so rapid
succ.ssiop, hut it is to be remem bered
thst their certainty remains to be we'll
established. The profession and the pub
lie are not over ssnguine about any OF
them since the apparent failure of DR..
Knck's great discovery after all that was
promised concerning it.
