A Historic Homestead.

Says the Philadelphia Record:
"Among Germantown's many old
time residences one of the most not
able is the Morris homestead on
Main street, opposite Market square.
This old home was the residence of
General Howe and at the same time
the home of Prince William, then a
youth, who afterward became king
of England. Subsequently it was oc-
cupied by President Washington.
The old colonial house was built i'll
1872 by the ancestors of the family
now occupying it. The quaint in
terror of this stately mansion always
commands much attention. The
rooms are square and are finished in
solid walnut and rosewood cabinet
ware of a pattern in fashion at the
time of the Revolution. In one
room stands an old clock, at one
time the property of Marie Antoi-
nette, which licked away the hours
in it's same solemn meter in the
gorgeous palaces of Louis XVI.
There are quaint old sofas and tables,
none of them a day under so years
old. The parlor is also furnished in
the same antique style. In the bed
rooms there Are numerous relics OF
Revolutionary times. In n cham
Der is a bedstead IS years old, with
tall, carved rosewood posts, and the
tapestries and curtains, paintings
and bric-a- brac are all of an age long
past"

in successful operation, but we never
saw a Jack and bean stalk yarn come
true.

~ DIDN'T THINK"

If all the troubles in the world
We're traced back to their start.
We'd find not one in ten begun
From want of willing heart.
But there's a sly woe working elf
Who turks about youths brink;
And sure dismay he brings Away
The elf 81 didn't hink."
He seems so sorry when he's caught
His mien is all contrite;
He SO regrets the woe he's wrought
And wants to make things right.
But wishes do not heal Il wound
Or weld a broken link.
The heart aches on-the link is gone
All through 81 idn't think"
half believe that ugly sprite,
Bold. wicked Il don't care"
In life's long run less harm has done
Because he is so rare,
And one can be SO stern with him
Can make the monster shrink.
But lackaday! h can We say
To whining Didn't Think"
This most unpleasant imp of strife
Pursues us everywhere;
There's scarcely one whole day of life
He does not cause us care.
Small woes and great he brings the world,
Strong ships are forced to sink,
And trains from iron tracks are hurled
BY stupid "Didn think"
When brain is comrade to the heart,
And heart from soul draws grace,
81 didn't think" will quick depart
For lack of resting place.
If from that great unSelfish stream,
The golden rule, we drink,
Well keep Gods laws and have no cause
To say 81 didn't think"

1t is generally conceded that the
failure of fusion between peoples
party and democrats was due to
lack Of headship in the absence of
chairman Mitchell of the democratic
central committee. The Henry

and the democrats were demoraliz-
ed.

Free Coinage is Assured

err Than Ever Before,

Those Iowa democrats are made
OF the proper material. They break
down the idols of all that trust in
gold and build a glorious temple in
the cause of financial truth. The re-
publicans of Colorado are no less
clamorous for the humiliation of the
gold-bug hosts. For they have
turned down such able men as VOL
colt, Howbert and all who we're not
so staunch in their faith as Senator
Teller. From every hill and valley
comes the swelling chorus of those
who hoist the standard of independ-
ent bi-metallism. All the talk about
a fifty cent dollar gets the laugh
when the people learn that F. A.
Preston keeps everything in the line
OF staple groceries and that he still
takes the 50 cent dollar at face val
ne in exchange for anything to be
found in the market. Goods at
reasonable prices.

a representative of The Herald visi-
ted the Ogden Wooden mills Tuesday
last and was shown the various pro-
cesses and operations by when WOOL IS
converted into blankets, yarns and
other wooden goods. About twenty peo-
pie are employed at the mills, and the
plant is kept running up to its full
capacity. In fact, some of the ma
chimes all run extra time. About TWEEN
ty hands are employed there, but the
demand for the output exceeds the
supply. The John Scowcroft x
Sons company of Ogden has
put, which is confined mostly
to blankets, hosiery and linseys. The
mills are adapted TO the manufacture
of other goods, but the fame of the
goods of these mills in particular lines
has become so general that the mana
ger has of late devoted the plant al
most exclusively to the manufacture of
such goods.
AT the time of the reporters visit
blankets were being turned out and the
various processes in their manufacture
from the rooms in which the wool is
washed, dyed and dried and mixed,
where the woven blankets are bound
and finished by hand, were shown by
Manager Platt.
! The Platts, it will be remembered,
have asked nothing of Ogden except
patronage. They came here when boz
muses. were the order of the day. They
asked for no bonus, but went quietly
to work remodeling the old plant and
putting in machinery. They declared
| they would make the business pay
without bonus or they would aban-
don it. They have made it pay, and
have demonstrated, moreover, that a
great industry of that kind may be
built up in Ogden, from which city
there is now shipped each year to
eastern cities hundreds of thousands
of pounds of wool, and at the same
time many thousands of dollars worth
of WOODEN goods are brought into the
city.
One very interesting machine is the
one which puts the nap on goods This
is done by running the cloth through
a series of rollers studded with teasel
burrs.
A suggestion to farmers is in thai
machine. Mr.. Plat says the raising OF
teasels is an industry of great extent
and Importance in New York, and he
sees no reason why they should not
be cultivated successfully here AS
the wool of this region becomes more
and more TO be worked up into CLOTH
for this region, the demand for then
will grow and their cultivation will bt
profitable.

Republicans All Benrer.

BEAVER, Utah, Sept 23.-The most
sensational political meeting of the
season and significant with meaning as
to the present campaign was held here
last evening in the court house by the
county Republican committee.
The goldbugs and Mckinley element
of Beaver City, which seems TO have been
we'll known but kept in the background
till after the result of the county Re
publican convention at MinersNille Sat
urday last. were there last night declar-
ing their anti-siIVer antipathies and de-
sires, were well known to the goldbug
element present and were honored with
delegatehips to Mt. Pleasant or ogden
conventions.
A desire TO manifest the independence
of the front of the Republican party of
Beaver City as not being dependent on
Frisco longer for its old-time majority,
was one of the main features of the
meeting and the next the ignoring and
denouncing of the doings and senti-
ments of the Independent Republicans
in Salt Lake city and other places.
The county ticket nominated at Min
ersville on Saturday last is not salts
factory and a. fusion ticket picked from
the nominees of the two parties with
one or two changes, is reported as GER
tain in a, few days.
A certain disaffected faction of the
Republican party prominent in finances
ard influence and that was ound among
the mistaken quantities in this city,
failed to be represented on the ticket
and this, with too much Of a silver Re-
publican element on the ticket has caus-
