Free silver viii Weaken.

The free silvar hurrah will inevitably
weaken during the campaign. All the
talk about a free silver cyclone is mere
talk. There is going to be some think
ing by many hundreds of thousands of
men before November. and many who
have been beguiled into believing that
free silver will be the salvation of the
country will take the sober second
thought and determine to act with the
conservative elements who are opposed
to such q revolutionary policy.
To start a campaign in a hurrah of
e%xcitation is to set a pace that kills,
and then must come reaction. This
reaction will be felt in national and
State politics. Too much steam is not
good. People must have a chance to
reflect. This is a year for serious
thought. The hurrah business and the
telling of anecdotes will entertain for
awhile, but will become stale, fiat and
Improbable before the campaign is
ended. We tell you that the people
are already beginning to think more
and more, and when the people get to
thinking in earnest their common
sense will guide them.
This is a year when all parties should
lay aside prejudice and think. The
people are beginning to think seriously

users. These stumps are the strongest
and contain more nicotine than any
other part of the cigar.
Chewing tobacco sometimes causes
sores on the mouth, and even cancers.
Besides it discolors the teeth and the
gums become soft and spungy.
The habit of splitting is a very i'm
polite one. 1t makes floors and side
walks filthy. and they are not fit for
clean people to walk on.
Tobacco affects the stomach in three
different ways. 1t Injuries the lining Of
the stomach, hinders the flow of the
gastric juice and therefore interferes
with digestion.
The effect of tobacco on the heart is
much the same as that of alcohol. The
beat is quickened but the power is
weakened. Severe pain around the
heart sometimes results from smoking.
Sometimes ringing sounds are heard i IN
the ears. This results from the use of
tobacco.
In Germany all the children under
sixteen years of age are forbidden to
use it. Sometimes specks of light seem
to be dancing before the eyes and il
usually results from the use of tobacco
and is cured by stopping its use.
Tobacco used in any form destroys
the ability to apply ones self to study
and prevents one from remembering
things.
In a word, we might say tobacco and
alcohol disappoint all except those who
seek death for body and mind. -Erma

LIFE OF AN EDITOR.

Its Lights and Shadows, Its Ups and Downs.
The following reply was made to the
toast Of "The Editor" at the meeting
Of the New York State Democratic
editors, held in New York:
Fellow toilers in the journalistic
vineyard-the life of an editor is not
one of unalloyed happiness. 1t has its
lights and shadows, its ups and downs,
with downs in hopeless majority. The
present occasion is an oasis in the
desert of Sahara.
occasionally you hear of a rich
country editor. An editor who started
out forty years ago with a cent, is now
worth 100000 Misfortune is all owing
to his energy, industry and frugality,
and the fact that a rich uncle died and
left him 900. 995. OF course there is a
mint of money is journalism. There
must be, as SO little has ever been got
ten out of it. In Burmah editors re.
ceive elephants in payment for sub
scription. In this country the paper
itself is about all the elephant the
editor cares to keep in stock. l read
the other day that a man had gone
twenty eight days without eating. The
name of the paper he was editor of was
not stated.
We are all Democrats editors here
tonight, but looking at it one way it
does not make much difference wheth-
err Congress is Democratic or Republi-
can. In either event the editor gets
the usual amount of public documents
with which to light the fire in the
sanctum stove.
Eyes editors have much to bother
them, but Mr.. Talmage is wrong where
he says all editors are miserable. Some
are dead. Occasionally there is a good
deal of competition in our business.
We have noticed several instances
where a newspaper in a small town
had n hard time making a living; an
other was started to help it starve to
death.
ut has been charged that there are
a great many old jokes in newspapers,
but that CAM be helped. Newspaper
men are good and die young and the
newcomers in the business don't know
what has already been published.

There is only one way in which the
riot of high prices which free silveris
expected to inaugurate~ could even
leave the workingman as well off as he
Is at present, and that is by raising his
wages just as fast and as high as the
prices are raised on all the things which
he has to go to market and buy. But
the experience of all initiation periods
has been that, while wages have even
tually risen as well as other things,
they have not risen nearly as quickly
nor as high. In other words, the price

out the solid rock they hit a series of

found a live lizard. They were taken

exposed to the air. They were of a
peculiar copper color. Although there
were places for eyes, there were no
orbs. biologists state, and 1t is an
evident fact. that the lizards were liy.

could get any nourishment. One OF
two were taken out of the Lux & Tai.
