"KEEp IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD
Editor Daily Co-Operator:

Editor Daiy CoOperator
It is too late to lock the stable door after the
horse is stolen.
vention founded new political church on
three cardinal principles of reform--land, trans
portation and fnance-and that if it had any
single idea about it, that idea was "to keep i'll
the middle of the road"
Our natioua committee had technical right
to do what has been done, and if there has been
such change in political sentiments and con-
ditiens that the Peoples party desires to follow
the lead of the national committee, supplement-
ed by the action of the silver convention, then
instead of censure, our committee is entitled to
credit for wisdom and craftsmanship.
By the Joint action of our committee and the
bimetallists, two national conventions are to
meet in ST. Louis, Mo-, July 22, 1896. The
silver convention is to have larger delegation
than the Populsts. Colorado is to have As del
epates to the Peoples party convention, and
about double that number to the silver conven-
tion The number of delegates TO the latter
convention has been arbitrarily fixed so that
the silver producing states and those represent
ed by the managers of the silver movement
have entire control of its platform and ticket.
States representing about one fifth of the peo-
ple of the United States will dictate the policy
of the silver national convention. At st. Louis,
the Peoples party convention will doubtless
be called upon, in the name of harmony and
success, to appoint joint committee with the
silver convention to report for the adoption of
Joint platform and ticket. Such was the pol
cy of the St. Louis conference in 1892, in max
ing the platform of the Peoples party, but to
that conference all reform organizations were
invited to send delegates; but now the case is
entirely different On the other hand is the
Peoples party, political organization more
or less perfect in every state of the Union
nolinp at last falls election about one and one
half million votes; and this, notwithstanding
in many states Populist votes were fraudulent
" "counted out" On the other hand is a
self-constituted body, like chamber of COM
merce, no party record and no vote behind it
close corporation, dictated almost entirely by
corporation and ex corporation attorneys, and
in the interest of corporations, as is evident
from the fact that this silver party demands, as
preliminary to its support, that every part of

TACKS.
Made In Great Variety and For Many DIFF
ferent Uses.


ferent Uses
The best tacks are made of imported
Swedish iron, the next grade of Ameri-
can soft steel and the cheapest of com
mon American iron. Tacks are also
made of copper. Some tacks are timed,
and for ship use tacks are galvanized.
Tacks are made of sizes ranging from
half ounce TO 24 ounces. The tack COM
monty used as a carpet tack is an eight
ounce tack. A "a ounce tack is about
"A inch in length.
There are many kinds of tacks, made
for a great variety Of uses, and they are
put up in many different forms. There
are gimp tacks, looking glass tacks, up
holsterer's tacks, trunk tacks, lace
tacks, basket tacks, brush tacks coffin
tacks, shank tacks, lasting tacks, min
er's tacks, cheesebox tacks and tacks for
many other uses. Within the past dozen
years the sale of double pointed tacks
has increased tenfold with the greatly
increased use of electrical wires. Dou-
Bile pointed tacks are also used for tack
ing down straw mating and for other
purposes.
Tacks that are sold in papers are put
up LII 1OAI NC1ShUo1 4AuA4 NClShISS 1Ilo
quarter weights, the weight indicating
the size of the package. Almost ali
kinds of tacks are also sold in bulk in
% pound and so pound boxes and in
100 pound kegs
A one ounce tack machine will make
in a day about 100, 900 tacks altogether
The iron is fed into the machine in
plate which is of width little great
er than the length Of the finished tack,
so as to allow of material to be upset
for the head An eight ounce machine
will make about 900 pounds of tacks
day, $50 to the pound, about $50, 900
tacks. Tacks that are put up in papers
are weighed out and the papers filed
by hand. Comparatively few tacks are
put up nowadays in tied up papers
They are put up mostly in little paste
board boxes. These boxes are packed in
larger boxes and i'll turn in cases for
shipment. A common tack package is a
case weighing about 100 pounds.
The annual tack product of the cOun-
try is estimated at about 20, 900 tons.
If these tacks were all put up in papers
of the usual assortments of sizes and
weights, the papers would number about
800, 900, 900, or something more than
four papers per capita of the population.

Gently, ''to hear Mr.. Edison rolling of
story after story, and demanding of all

we might have received from him.
finally asked him how he got to be such Il
story teller. We'll, he replied, when
was quite young man was telegraph
operator during the war. 1 was station
ed at st. Louis, which was a sort of dis
tributing point for a large district, and
when we would get our batch of stuff off
and we still had several hours to put in,
1 used to get pretty tired. Then we
would begin to call up the operator at
the other end of the line and gossip with
him. I always liked stories, and if Chi
cago had a good one, he would wire it
to me. Then / would send that off to
Louisville and New York and Cincin-
natl, and hear them laugh over it by
wiring back, "Ha, ha, over the wire.
In this way we would get all the best
stories there were going, and we would
always write them out for the day men.
1t got to be a sort of passion after
awhile, and has stuck to me ever since. .

ed his men to take a halter from his horse and
hang me from the limb of a tree. The halter
was adjusted around my neck and over the
limb. Seeing that he was in rage over his
disappointment and desperately in earnest, !

WITH He dropped his head minute, then
said, Boys, he is right-let him alone.''
Hines ruse saved Morgan, and he got
away TO the Confederate camps. Hines
himself had further adventures. His cap
tor placed him under strict guard at first
but finally treated him with great courtesy
and kindness. An opportunity was once
given him for escape from the custody of
the major in person, but Hines refused to
take advantage of it, being under a parole
of honor at the time. He soon learned
sides camp at Knoxville, where he would
be recognized. This he feared because the
fact of his having once escaped would
count against him. He resolved to escape
on the march and succeeded at the risk of
his life. One night he was left with other
prisoners in a wayside cabin, with three
guards. 1t was cold, and all of the party
gathered around the blazing hearth. Watch
ing his opportunity, while all were alb
sorbed in the details of q campfire story,
Hines edged his way to the door, opened it
quickly and rushed out. There were guards
in front of the door, who fred as soon as
they recovered from surprise, but without
effect. He passed close TO an outer SEN
tinel, who also fired, with the musket so
close to the runaway that the flash scorched
his cheek.
The whole camp was in confusion in
stantly. Horses ready saddled were mount
ed and hot chase given the fleeing cap
tain, who dashed for the timber, and by
the time the bOrsemen reached there was
well up the mountain side. On the sum
NIT of the mountain he lay down In some
tall sedge grass. Next day searching par
ties passed within 80 steps of his hiding
plaza At night he once more ventured
abroad, and assuming the role Of a horse
buyer was passed on from place to place
until he reached the Confederate lines in
Georgia Dec. 81, just a month after tbs
bold jail break at Columbus. For bis in
genuity in planning and his wonderful
nerve IN the execution OF she details of she
escape, Morgan nicknamed Captain Hines
the Count of Monte ChEisso.''

GROWTH.

Blow, windsl Your rage but shakes the ire,
And roots it surer in its place.
Scatter your rain, ye cloud and free
The buds that wait your frowning grace
Roll down, O river, to the sea
And widen in your onward racei
Peace through sunny span may keep
his garden in some quiet glen
Whilst others sow for him and reap
And tend his focks on moor and fen.
The flowers Of peace are death and sleep.
The strife of living makes Us men.
All, Joy il is to win the goal
By tireless work and dauntless will,
Yet may the life rise orbed and whole
From cIouded hopes and loss and i'll,
Our baffied tolls upbuild the soul,
And failure so is victory still.

A Model Plant is not complete with
out Electric Power, thus dispensing
with small engines.
Why not generate your power from
one CENTRAL Station? One gener-
ator can furnish power to your Pump,
Centrifugals, Elevators, Plows, Rail-
ways and HOSTS; also furnish light
and power for a radius of from 10 to &c
miles.
Electric power being used saves the
labor of hauling coal in your field, also
water, and does away with high-priced
engineers, and only have one engine to
look after in your mill.
Where water power is available ii
costs nothing to generate Electric
