The friends of the late Judge Grace
will remember with grateful feelings
that it was Henderson county that
broke the long deadlock at Princeton
and cast the IL votes that gave Judge
Grace the bare majority by which he
was nominated. The counties of his
district now have an opportunity to
show their appreciation of what Hen
derson did for them by supporting
Hendersor's candidate, Judge Yea
man, in the present contest. In this
county especially, where Judge Grace
is held in loving remembrance, this
will be a strong issue in the race now
in progress.

The bond money Democrats had a
conference in Louisville Wednesday
to discuss plans for organization. The
meeting was called by Mr.. Wilbur F.
Browder, who refused to support Har-
din for Governor and Moore for
State Senator lat year, because they
declined to change their views as free
coinage Democrats. The Park City
Times very pertinently says in this
connections:
democrats who agree with Mr..
Browder on the financial question will
hesitate before they enlist under his
leadership, not knowing where he will
take them"

What is Shredded wheat?

This question is so often asked and
as the product is quite new, some ex.
PLANTATION is necessary. The wheat is
first washed thereby denuding it of
its rough outer coat, then boiled one
hour, after which it goes through the
shreuding machine and comes out in
the form of the biscuits seen in our
ST. res. They are then baked in an owe n
and evaporated to extreme dryness-
this latter to insure keeping qualities
as it is claimed that in twelve months
they will be as fresh as to-day. This is
OF course too dry to use, and it is nee
essary they be soften before using.
They are mechanically light without
the use of fermentation Of any kind.
Nothing added to the wheat but lit.
tie salt and nothing taken from it, so
that it contains all the elements of
nutrition, which is many times that of
superfine flour, and in about the right
proportion, making it very desirable
food for either the sick or the we'll.
The fact that few or no slaves ever
died of consumption. or were insane
tells volumes of the effect of healthy
diet of bacon and unbolted corn meal.

Shelby county, in which Memphis
is situated, went for the single gold
standard in primary election, in
which about 5000 votes were polled.
This is about the only important
county in Tennessee that has been
captured by the goldbugs so far and
the indications are that the district of
which it is part will elect silver
delegates to Chicago next week.

GATHER THEM IN,

The Christian Endeavor Local
Union of Hopkinsville, KY, has been
more than usually aggressive in work
for Christ and the church Its latest
endeavor is one one of far-reaching
influence, and a good example of 10y
atty to the individual church. Its
work has been nothing less than a
house-to- house canvass of the entire
city by the Christian Endeavorers.
The town was divided into districts,
and the task of visiting every home
was assigned to selected workers.
The object was to find out what
persons are not in the habit of attend
ing church or Sunday school, and to
give to all such direct and personal
invitation to these services. These
invitations thus given are to be fol-
lowed up until the persons are
brought under the influence of the
church. The information gathered
by this religious census will be clas-
sified and given to the ministers of
the various churches. The visiting
had the approval Of all Christian
people, and was complete success
The work proved to the Endeavor-
ers how ready and willing persons are
to talk on religious subjects, and how
much they appreciate personal in
terest in their spiritual welfare. The
claims of the home-mission field, so
near to home as ones next-door neigh
Dor, were forced strongly upon the
hearts of the Christian Endeavorers,
and the lessons they have learned in
this school of experience will not soou
be forgotten or neglected.

A village Rising Bell.

For more than twenty years Bow
Evansville, Pa, has had what is known
as village bell. 1t is swung between
two high upright poles and was paid for
by public subscription. Every day the
bell is rung three times-at $50 o'clock
a. M, IL o'clock a. m, and 4 o'clock in
the afternoon. The leading object Of
it's ringing is to announce to farmers
nd other working people the time Of
Jay. The first bell in the morning
at Bowmansville is the signal for the
people to arise and in the summer most
Of the residents are out that early.
The II o'clock bell announces that it
is time to leave the fields and prepare
for dinner. At o'clock in the after
noon they prepare for supper.-Corre-

Promoters Of strikes argue to thel
comrades that unsuccessful efforts are
nevertheless ultimately beneficial: but
study of the subject has led me to
take the opposite view, viz: that all
strikes Of skilled workmen are, in the
end, harmful to the participants. No
one single cause has done more, in my
opinion, to hasten the introduction of
entirely automatic machinery in opera
lions where a certain degree Of skilled
labor was considered indispensable
than strikes on the part of such skill
ed employees Numerous instances
might be recalled where large manu-
faCturers have, on account Of strikes,
cheerfully expended immense sums Of
money in perfecting automatic machin-
cry, not primarily to effect economy in
wages, but as an assurance against
future danger from such causes. A
notable instance of this nature oc-
Cured few years ago at one Of the
largest iron and steel works in the
world. In certain department speci-
ally skilled men were able to make
wages which now seem incredible.
They we're, however, paid a percentage
upon the tonnage and, owing to enorm-
GUS output, the profits Of these opera
tives exceeded in some years that Of
many successful manufacturers having
large capital at stake. These men con-
sidered themselves indispensable and
struck, not for higher wages or shorter
hours, but at the dictation of outsiders.
When work was resumed they found
their occupations gone forever. Auto
matte machinery had supplanted the
former skilled labor.-Popular Science

Before the French revolution 10000
men owned all the land of France.
Now she numbers 3,222,OOO free hold
ers. In England 100000 persons own
all the land, and the proportion of pau
pers is % for England to one in
France. If our people desire to save
themselves from the fate of English
pauperism they will have to begin the
work of salvation by adopting the
New Zealand graduated land tax laws,
which will speedily emanclpate them
from extortionate land rents, and give
every industrious prudent man a
chance to secure a holding somewhat
larger than a cemetery lot-a home

1t is getting to be difficult, however,
to bride voters owing to the great i'm.
prOvement Of late years in our election
laws. Consequently most Of the money
goes to individuals who control voters
to saloon keepers. to stump orators and
to the general run Of shady characters
so numerous during presidential year
The papers are heavy subsidies. This
money is never paid out openly as a
bride. 1t takes the form Of payment
for advertisements, of purchasing stock
Of purchases Of whole campaign edi-
tons and Of the bills contracted in col

der is that many newspapers have any
influence at all upon voters, but for
some unfathomable reason they do.
In round numbers the political par
ties spend about twenty million dollars,
directly or Indirectly, in electing the
