HARMONY.

Happiness is the result of harmony
with our environments. Out of water
fish die, the lark would perish in the
ocean, the ignorant would be unhappy
amid the learned, and the sinner miser-
able in Heaven, because IN each case
they would be out of harmony with
their environments.-Rev. j. r. West

How TO Correct tho EVIL.


Senator Sherman, of Ohio, recently
wrote a letter to Emmett Rittenhouse,
of Ashland, O., in which he says: ''The
only way in which republican admin
istration can correct the evils OF the
past is by increasing the revenue by
new tariff law. and this, fear. is not
practicable" This is, to say the least.
not very encouraging. Mr.. Sherman
declares that the only way to correct
the evil is to increase taxation. That be-
ing the correction of one evil by another
is q very doubtful expedient- Better.
probably, be content with the evils We
have rather than to resort to other evils
we know not of for theircorrection. But

by increasing taxation Is not calcu-

The Peoria Herald (boltocrat) never
was more mistaken in its life than
when il suys there 'was not q cor.

state or country until something over
q year ago. referring to the incjpiency
of the movement in this state for q
democratic state convention in 1895.
The tidal wave of 1894 which swept
the democrats out of congress was an
emphatic protest from the rank and
file Of the party against the uncondi-
tional repeal of the Sherman cowardly
makeslift for free coinage. and the
reputation by Cleveland and his cucI-
oos of the national democratic platform
of 1892. This platform pledged tho
democratic party to hold to the use
and free coinage of silver and gold
as the standard money of the coun-
try. Free coinage has been doctrine
of the democratic party since 1877. and

A GOLD FIND.
Excitement in Southern Hand County
Over Discovery Of Gold.

Through the recording of deeds
and transfer of land, it leaked out
yesterday that John parmelcy and
father, NJ. \. Parmeley OF Pleasant
Valley township, had discovered
what they thought to be a deposit
of free gold. The discovery was
made three or four weeks ago, while
they were digging postholes. 1t is
stated upon good authority that
John Parmeley went to Chicago with
some of this dirt, and had it assay
ed, declaring the result to show over
$40 to the ton, of placer dirt. Ares
ident examiner named ThOs. Barrett,
also pronounces it pay dirt. The
ore is said to be found near the sur
face, and after considerable pros
pecting the district Is said to cover
an area of some FIVE or six miles on
the southern line Of Hand county in
Pleasant Valley township, where it
is very billy ground. Mr.. Parmeley
has associated with him a capitalist
named Whitmore, OF Iowa, in the
purchase OF land.
Whether there is anything in this
discovery OF not remains to be seen.
The PRESS gives the reports Just as
found floating about, because too
late this week to be cOrrObOrated.
In all probability before another is
