The gold party convention at Indian
apols is too much of blue stocking
affair to appeal at all to the masses of
the voters. The gentlemen of this
division are not practical politicians.
Their efforts Will be without much re-
suit The way for the disgruntled to
fracture the backbone of a party is
not to leave it and sulk and organize
and reorganize. Boiling has never
counted for much. The man who
''knows the ropes" in the game of
gaining ballots and managing parties
will stay within his own organization
through thick and thin. The bolter is
a mugwump and the mugwump has
yet to accomplish any real work.

Comment on the Vermont Republi
can majority and the 10000 audience
Bryan had for his first speech in Ohio
seems to quite balance in it's own pc
culiar way. The Democrats declare
the Vermonters are bloated bondhold-
ers and the Republicans scorn the
mass meeting members as anarchists
and enemies of the country After all
face is nothing more than willy and
desperate struggle for mere party
supremacy.

RECLAIMING SQUARE MILES.

According to recent article in the
New York Herald, 1.-THE Egyptian Gov
eminent will shortly proceed to eNca-
waite the Raiyan Canal on plans pro-
posed by Mr.. Cope Whitehouse, of New
York City. The Raiyan canal is to be
10 miles long, and will connect the
Nile river with a tract of $50 square
miles of land a few miles southeast of
Cairo and 100 feet below the level of
the Nile. BY draining the surplus
flood waters of the Nile into this tract
it is estimated that crops worth $7O,-
100000 can be raised on what is now
desert, and that better control will
be given of the Nile floods with favor
able effects on the sanitary conditions
of the Lower Nile. Mr.. Whitehouse
discovered this tract while travelling in
Egypt, and having bought the tract
has had plans for its development be-
fore the Egyptian authorities since
1891. 1t is estimated that the canal
will cost S3,O0O.0OO.

The Government and the citizenship
at large of the Islands should spare no
effort in the direction of settling
Americans and Europeans upon the
coffee lands of the group. The rice in
dustry of the country is in the hands
of the Chinese. They gained possession
honestly and maintain it by work
close to endurance of hardship. But
in the south in the United States, cit
liens of the land grow the white grain.
They have machinery and methods UNI
known to the industry here. In this
fact is perhaps found the secret of the
absence of white proprietorship of Ha-
waiian rice patches. The Chinese have
not gone into coffee to any extent, but
may turn their hands to it almost any
time. In this new industry the jap
anese have already arrived" They
own land in fee simple and are culci-
waiting it after their tireless and mex
pensive plans. This means that coffee
will be cheapened. But it is not so
much that matter and it is not at all
race preference or discrimination that
should be considered excepting on a
plane far beyond the common pre-
judices and arguments. American and
European settlers should be afforded
advantages and inducements because
they will make and produce the cit
izenship that the Islands must have.

Ripans
TabuleS

Mr.. l.. A. ROcher is a farmer re-
siding about three miles out of
Colon, n. c.. His home is some
what in the back woods. In an
interview with Mr.. S. T. Godfrey,
a correspond mt of the Telegram
and Sunday Times, Mr.. Rocher
on the 18th of June, 1895, said:
81 am 81 years of age, and until
l was nigh onto fifty years old,
1 was always well and peart,
then for long while and until
last February, 1 suffered with
indigestion and could not eat
anything hardly at all. My
daughter, who lives in the city,
sent me some of Ripans Tabules,
told me how to take them, and
and they have completely cured
me. My wife is now troubled
with the same complaint, and
has written daughter to send
some more of Mr.. Ripan's med
icine. I want you to tell every
body how got cured, for it is a
blessing to humanity.

whose declaration Of Independence was
the first thing of the kind known to civ
ilization, for help. While assisting the
Irish chief Strongbow noticed royal
wink on the features of Henry, and act
ing upon it proceeded to gather in the
other precincts Of Ireland Thus in 1172
the island was placed under the rule Of
a viceroy sent there by England
Henry now had trouble with three Of
his SONS, Henry, Richard and Godfrey,
who threatened that if the old gentle
man did not divide up his kingdom
among them they would go to Paris and
go into the roue business. Henry him
self was greatly talked about and his
name coupled with that of fair. Rosa
mond Clifford, arrival Of Queen Eleanor:
The king refused to grant the request of
his sons and babe them go ahead with
their roue enterprises so long as they
did not enter into competition with him.
So they went to Paris, where their
cuttings up were not noticed. The queen
took their side, as did Louis Of France
and William, king of Scotland With
the Beckett difficulty still keeping him
awake of nights also, the king was in
constant hot water and for a time it
seemed that he would have to seek other
employment, but his mastery hit in
making barefooted pilgrimage to the
tomb of Beckett, thus securing absolution
from the archbishop of Canterbury,
turned the tide.
William of Scotland was made a pris-
oner in, 1174 and the confederacy
against the king broken up. Thus in
1175 the castle at Edinburgh came into
the hands Of the English, and roast beef
was substituted for oats Irish and
Scotch whisky was now introduced into
the national policy, and bits of bright
English humor, with footnotes for the
use Of the Scots, were shipped to Edin-
burgh.
Henry had more trouble with hig
sous, however, and they imbittered his
life, az the sons Of too frolicsome father
are apt to do. Henry, Jr., died repentant,
but Geofrey persisted in his sins in a
tournament, although generally the tour

At this dramatic moment Richard, hav-

arena, and the jig was up. John was
obliged to ask pardon, and Richard gen

is indeed gratifying when one reads of
the brief lives of these old reigners, for

Richard died from the effects of an
arrow wound, and all his foes in this
engagement were hanged except the

He cursed his sons and died misera-

Richard Kyur duh le ong, as the
French have it, or Richard I Of the
lion heart, reigned In his fathers stead
from 1889 to 1899. His reign opened
with disagreeable massacre. The Jews
who had brought him some presents to

the king favored massacre, and so
many were put to death.

In the most desolate spot upon
earth, where delegation of women is
to arrive almost any day, the
matrcns of the town are determined
that there shall be romance in their
city and enough courtship to make
matters spicy gossip. The married
men are likewise inclined to this ar
rangement, as part of the cost of
transportation comes out of their peck
cts as tax payers.
The matrons propose to open the
amusement halls every night and give
sociables, fairs, and tea drinkings.
They have planned an amateur dra-
matte company, and as for dances,
each is to have dancing class under
her own chaperonage. The girls up
on the day of their arrival are to be
given reception, and all will become
acquainted speedily. The. greatest

sent to the cities for 100 women. And
poor girls, out of fun and curiosity
and willingness to have a home, went

shyly. By evening all the girls had
found boarding places in the wooden
shauties of the ''town." And by Sun
day the parson was kept busy tying
the numptial' knots. The prettiest
