Obituary..

Death holds high carnival, carrying
away our dear ones to the far off shore.
Isaac w. Landess was born April l5,
1927, and died Nov. IL, 1895, aged SO
years, months and 27 davs.
He was married to Anna F. Newton,
January Is, 1852.
To them were born one son and five
daughters, all of whom are still living
and have families.
Brother Landess became disciple of
Christ in early life, under the labors of
Elder Peter Holm, and lived a consist.
ent Christian the remainder of his days.
He was seldom absent fIom church
services, until affliction in his family de-.
manded his presence at his home. His
wife was stricken with paralysis some
five or six years ago, and has been an
invalid ever since
II Brother Landess did a wrong he was
ever ready to make amends, as far es
possible. He was highly esteemed in
neighborhood and church. He was a
lover of good and all good people. His
house was ever open to the ministry
that labored for the church OF which he
was was member. He was a careful
business man. By industry and econ
omy he rose from poor boy to affluence
in the world. He has left an example
OF honesty, industry, economy, benii
cence and piety, worthy of imitation.
A few years ago. he received kich
from horse that seriously affected his
health, and evidently hastened his dis
solution.
But, he is gone and I'VE will not de
plore" him, but hope to meet him, ir
the not distant future, where pain is un
known and sorrow never comes.
Jesus will deal lovingly with us al
and give US more than our due. Int
his hands we commit our brother, be
lieving that he will do right. May hi
blessings be upon the sorrowing family

Accident Stories.

It L. characteristic Of the perversity
Of human intelligence to find the most
amusing things in the midst of the
most serious circumstances-such as
railroad accidents, for instance. It is
related that solemn-faced Yankee
woman was once riding on the train
from Brookfield to Stamford, Conn.
Somewhere between the two stations
the track spread, and the train rolled
down an embankment,
The solemn.faced lady crawled from
beneath the wreckage, and asked Of a
bGolsen-legged man who was near:
SIS this Stamford?"
"No, ma'am," the man gasped, ''this
10 a catastrophe!"
"Oh, dearl" she answered, .'then
hadn't oughter got OF here, had II"
This anecdote 10 much like still
older one which, in it's original and
proper form, came from Scotland. An
old Scottish woman was taking heI
! first Journey. to the very next station, on
. railroad train. On the way q switch
was left open, and the train went into
the ditch with . craih.
A soon as the old woman could re.
gain her senses and her tongue, she
called out TO the guard, who happened
| to be on the same wrecked car:

Errors In matters which either are

political meetings q hectic gentleman
who seemed to be right in the conf.

It isn't anything like the army Of Valley
Forge and Bunker Hill, bnt that it has
dwindled TO sort Of select dancing

there IRE no campaigns any more. He
alluded 10 certain occasions when he,
charged that the army had set out to
conquer two dollars worth of coffee

give several regiments outing vaca-

speaker kept on At this rate and was

WOOL PRICES UNDER TWO TAR
IFS.

A correspondent writes us concern
ing a matter that is sure to be near TO
the top during the campaign-for, after
all, tariff. and not currency, is to be the
Issue. He says:
"a noisy democrat is asserting where
l am now staying that the Inter Ocean
claimed that the price of wool fell
greatly Immediately after the passage
Of the Mckinley bill and challenged
me to refute it. Can you give me any
points on this subject?"
The fervent democrat does not state
the case correctly. Fervent democrats
seldom do.
Excepting as to sugar, tin plate and
some articles covered by the recipro-
city clause, the Mckinley tariff went
into effect October 6, 1890. The aver
age of wool prices in October, 1890,
stood thus in eastern markets, in which
the price rules highest. and the statis-
ttcal abstract of the United States
treasury department. being quoted:
Fine, SO cents per pound: medium. 81
cents; coarse, 81 cents.
In, October, 1891, the price fell slight
ly-not greatly" as the fervent demo-
crat says-prices being: Fine. 81 cents
per pound; medium, 35 cents; coarse.
80 cents.
But in April. 1891, the prices were
higher by an average of l cent per
pound than in April. 1891. Taking the
year around. prices in 1891 were as
good as in 1890. So that the democrat
Is wrong in saying that prices fell i'm
mediately after the passage of the Nc
Kiuley BILL"
But in 1892 there was a further fall,
and 1t was caused by an unprecedented
yield Of wool. The wool crop Of the
Australian colony of New South Wales
for 1891 was 10, 0OO, 900 pounds in ex-
cess OF that in 1890; that OF South Aus
tralia, which is a very small factor in
the wool market, was greater by nearly
H. 900 pounds; the colonies of Vic
toria and Queensland increased their
outputs by about so per cent. The news
of this large crop tended toward lower
prices in 1891; but the Mckinley tariff
held them nearly up to the mark in the
United States. But in 1892 these great
crops came into market, and the onse-
queuce was q fall in prices all owe the
