A good illustration of Mark Hanna's
system of logic for the conversion of
editors is thus given by the Dayton
Courier: "We have received lot of
stuff from the Sound Currency Com
mittee,' of 81 William street, N. Y.
which offers to furnish ready set mat
ter in return for which insertions we
we're to receive what would be equiva-
lent to us of $1,000 per week. In addi-
ton to this offer the further PROPOSE
ton is made to furnish 'broadsides,' or
supplements, to the Courier free of ex-
pense, delivered in our Office. The
proposition to us has the appearance
of an attempt to bribe and it has been
placed in our capacious waste basket a"

The one pat sentence in all the
speeches Boss Hanna's man is making
to the deadhead excursionists to Can
ton is: "Open the mills, not the mints."
1t is a catchy sentiment and makes a
telling point every time. But if Mr.
Mckinley could only tell where the
buyers for the products of the mills
were to come from while the mints are
closed to silver and the gold of the
world is cornered, he would be enlight-
ening the people. The fact is, the mod
ern Napoleon is rapidly becoming
man with only one idea or line of
thought, and the basis of that one idea
a wrong premises.

The line via Denver and Kansas City
to Chicago in connection with the Chi

The Statesman, in an editorial upon
Owyhee county, first admits that the
miners in this county are unanimously
for Bryan and the free coinage ofsilver
and then proceeds to show them that
they would fare better under goldbug
rule. Its arguments are certainly quite
as clear as any of those of any goldbug
who tells the farmer that he is better
off while everything is cheapest and in
the same breath tells him how prices
of his products will rise under gold
bug regime. The few miners who read
the Statesman will laugh when they
see that editorial. But we can assure
them it is quite on par with the av-
erage sound money reasoning.

i been evil there can be DO comfort in med- itating over them. If they have been I good we must be joyful over them. We are all mortals and what can add to our
 comfort in old age unless we have done
 some good thing. Then why should it
 not be our great desire as we advance in years to increase in doing good. What
 on earth in our old age can give us con- fort unless we have done some good
 thing. This is a very simple matter to
 mediate upon and yet what can be more

 Allow me to say to you, my young friends, members of the high school, that 1 feel much interest in your success iR life and hope never to hear of improper conduct by one of it's graduates. You are all expecting to become active in life in the way of employment and one of the most important acts in life is to be hon est and always up to time in whatever you engage to do.

 Following Mir Staples address came the singing of the "Founder's day hymn"
 Rufus Wakeman gave practical ad- dress to the citizens, touching on the school building, the founder and the prin- cipals and teachers to the present day.
 Prof T. c. Stearns spoke for the insti- tuition of learning. He stated that one quarter of the population was engaged in work.
 Prof Pratt spoke for the alumni of Staples high school. He stated there was now a senior class of B, which if they remained five months longer would be the largest graduating class to go out of this school.
 Following the singing, My days are gliding swiftly by, a recitation was giv- en by Miss Susie C. Gorham entitled Kate shelby" which brought down the house. Miss Gorham, who is in the grad uating class, is fine elocutionist. Rev J. E. Coley read several letters of regret and reorganization from former resi- dents.
 nephew Uf Rev Mir Backus spoke briefly. He said that the honogcd life which Mir Staples las led must be q stim- ulas to the community. Character counts more than cash. Make your character count something. Character means lie. After the singing of the national hymn the benediction was offered by Rev Mr Coley.
 At the close of the exercises the senior class served dinner, which was gener- Ously patronized.

Benjamin Maynard of Taunton dis trict has in his possession one of the first numbers of the New York Daily Sun, dated September 3, 1888 It is 8 four pa ge sheet, three columns to a page, and the columns not over 10 inches in length. h a paragraph on the business of New
 York it is stated that considerable busi- ness was transacted during she past month, more than any month in August for several years. The city is nearly full of strangers from all parts of this coun- try and Europe. Many hotels are filled with strangers, and in one no less than l795 entries Of boarders were made on its register during the past month, mak- ing 54 per day. This interesting number also contains column of steamboat mo- tices. One of them is an "ad'' for the
 Hartford line, through by daylight and passage SI. A column is also devoted to the doings of the police office, and in l those days the whisky battle was promi- nent. John MeMan was brought up for
 whipping Juda McMan, his darling wife. His excuse was that his head was rather thick in consequence of taking a wee drop of whisky. Joseph Parish was brought up for exercising the muscles of his right arm by pounding John Nixon on the head with his fist. The absence of much general news is made up by giv- ing short stories and anecdotes. This number and copy of The Sun of to-day
 make an interesting comparison, and H.
 Iustrate well the advance in journalism.

Milton says Satan said All is not lost, the unconquerable will" Now the farmer requires that same will to COZ quer. The weeds grow as God ordered, the frosts cut down crops and flower; the tuberculosis wedges into the cattle and himself; the hog cholera and the pips in chickens attack frequently; the cod ding moth runs his javelin into his ap- pies and the bOrer cuts Off the young trees and make avenues up the older ones. The peach trees have "the yellowsH and storm of officers" are sent by the state to cut down his trees and kill his cattle. His vinegar is inspected and if not better than "sronewall cider" is con- demned His fences need constant re- pairs; his 'sheep are in the meadows and the cows are in the corn,' often in his own, and neighbOrs. He ships pro duce to commission merchants and often does not get pay for his boxes and bar rels He starts for market at hours be- fore sunrise when the city is in profound sleep, and finds that the city is full of potatoes, apples and meats.
