THE CLEVELAND BADGE.

1t was the convention that nomi-
mated Bryan that kicked Wall street
out in the cold, and sat down on the
Grover Cleveland gold bond policy.
1t was the Republican national con-
vention that got down on its knees to
the Wall street crowd and made its
platform conform to the most ap-
proved ideas of British gold mono
metallism that is making our farmers
wear Ithe patches on their overalls.
When the Heritage quartet exhibit
their Cleveland badges in the faces of
intelligent country audiences, they
display their ignorance more than
their bad breeding. If it were possi-
BILE to get them to understand any
thing, they should see that, while the
Bryan platform, which the States
man will not print, condemns the tinan-
cial policy of theCleveland administra-
tion under which the country suffers,
the Republican platform endorses the
wholeu Cleveland financial system,
badges and all.

CHRISTIANITY AND ANARCHY.

OF course, IL is well known that the
national Republican convention was
opened with prayer by u Jewish rabbi
but this is infinitely worse:
The great Mark Hanna has lately
been making appeals to the clergy Of
the land TO support Mckinley for the
reason that should Bryan be elected.
ANARCHY and disorder would prevail.
while lC says his candidate and party
represents all that is moral and relig-
iOus. In the face Of this let the min
listers Of Albany, aud also all the
christian people, notice what is being
advertised to occur at Newport on
Sunday, a grand public meeting, clam
bake, etc, in honor Of Governor Lord,
Senators Mitchell and Mcbride and
Congressman Hermann, Ellis and
Tongue. How does this appear by
the side of the claims put forth by
Hanna? Consistency thou art a jewel
but you are not altogether in the pos
session Of the Republican party, just
at the present time.-Saturday Al
bany Democrat.
Political clambakes, hurrahS, eXcur-
sions and ratifications on Sunday are
all right, when conducted in the in
terest of the gold standard, of "sound
etc, etc.
Isn't it about time all those who
the golden calf quit calling
Bryan and his friends anarchists?

HILL NOT A SUICIDE.

While Senator Hill has been lag
gard in coming to the support of Bryan,
the people will be glad to know he has
not committed political suicide, but
has at last come out and declared he
will support Bryan and the Chicago
platform.
Hill has always declared himself a
Democrat and bimetallst. He de-
clares himself now a bimetallist,
though not exactly of the kind de-
fined in the Chicago platform. He
rescues himself from political oblivion
in half hearted manner, which may
be atoned for by spirited participa-
tion in the campaign in New York.
The politician who now hestiates to
espouse the course of the people is
hardly worthy the name even in it's
more acceptable sense.

We, the undersigned, eye witnesses
to The difficulty between II. B. Jones
and Chinaman Sing, which occurred at
Mr.. Jones' hop yard in this county on
the 11th inst, desire to say to the
public that Mr.. Jones acted only in

WooDsuRN, Sept. 20, 1896.
EmroR JOURNAL: We notice in
the Statesman of September Il a
communication of ''B Consistent ''who
under the disguise ola non de plume
seek to hide his identity and thus
conceal from the public the real
character and personality OF cow
ardly cur, and the real source from
which malice, perfidy and tilthily dis.
tOrted truth eminateS "B. Con-
sstent" shows his treacherous malig-
naty and cowardly propensities by
concealing his identity and by this
very act brands himself in the eyes of
all fair minded men of all parties,
creeds and professions or callings as a
sneaking, hireling who would betray
truth, friendship or a nation for a
petty Office or a petty sum in coin.
This "B. Consistent" writes like IA
hired assassin who stabs his victim in
the night and seeks to hide his crime
in the criminal filth of his own dast-
ardly heart.
Now to this scholastic skunk l have
few more things to say: have
labored with Hon. II. L. Barkley in
the field, on the farm, at the shop,
and in the pulpit, and know whereof
1 speak. If this skulking hireling will
make himself known 1 will arrange a
series of contests for him to meet H.
L. Barkley on any of the following
lines of labor: In the harvest field, at
the carpenters bench on any class of
work known to the trade. If "B.
Consistent" claims to be scholar and
desires to test our champion along
that line he shall be accommodated
from a parson g discourse to political
discussion upon the declarations of
principles as enunciated by the st.
Louis convention as to whether they
are Republican principals, or Grover
Cleveland Democracy or upon the
Chicago platform, upon which w. j.
Bryan stands, is not better Republic
anism than the st. Louis platform,
upon which stands VIM. Mckinley.
And further, if this scape-goat of the
of socalled Republicanism
will furnish his real name so that his
disreputable family connection n'be
aired to the public, we will give him
ample opportunity to prove his
assertions as to whether Hon. H. L.
Barkley has been east to "sell himself |
to the silver syndlcates for what
there is in it,"
In conclusion "Mr. b. Consistent"
if you want to be more widely ad- |
vertised as a dastardly prevaricator to
be known under your own name,
arrange conference with me and l |
will promise you fulhllment of your
desire. G. w. CoRBY.

Little Girls Wonderful Nerve.

A. wonderful exhibition of nerve and
GOODNESS in the face of deadly peril was
shown by Jennie Sheets. aged eight
years, recently near Kansas City. A
heavily loaded passenger train left Ca
bool, Mo. A small trestle terminates
a sharp curve few miles cast of the
town. and the train was making 40
miles an hour when the curve was
reached. AS the train approached the
trestle, the engineer saw two women
and two little girls on the trestle. To
stop was impossible. The women
jumped to the dry bed of the creek be-
low; the children remained on the
trestle. Jennie Sheets was. one, and
she seized her companion, threw her
on the extreme edge of the bridge
sleeper and there held her until the
train had passed. The train vas
stopped and ell the passengers ran

SEED DISTRIBUTION.
One of Natures Most Wonderful and
Mysterious Operations.

One of Natures Most Wonderful and
Mysterious Operations.
In the hedgerows and along the coun-
try highways, so infinitely varied in
their peaceful beauty, what wonder
full and diverse operations and designs
are taking place to secure the distribu-
ton of the ripened seed-winged seeds
of suitable shapes for the wind to car
~ and let drop here and there in cleared
space; seeds that hook themselves to
the passer-by, so that perchance they
may be conveyed TO bit of ground
not overcrowded.
The wild geranium that grows here
and there so abundantly, when its pink
petals have fallen and the seed within
its seed-case are ripe, by a simple me-
chanism shoots its seeds some little dis
lance.
The capsule of the common poppy
has little doors in the top, and when it is
agitated by the wind, the seeds are
elected one by one through these small
apertures. The little doors are pro-
tected from rain by an overhanging
roof, and close themselves in wet
weather.
In the autumn, dry, bristly, round
ism thing about the size of large mar
BILE (the burr of the burdock) gets at
tached to our clothes or entangled in
the long hair of our dog, and can be
only got rid of with some difficulty.
The burdock, wild parsley and en-
chanter's nlghtshade, so common to our
woodlands, by means of hooks cling to
any passer-by who may chance toknock
against them, using this method of dis
trlbuting their seed.
Seeds by adhering to the wool of
sheep have been conveyed in the fleece
10 other countries, and new and vigor-
Gus growth has resulted therefrom. In
the plants have named the hooks are
so arranged as to provide for the remov-
al of the seed, and, although beautiful
ly formed, are small, but in some for
eign species they are truly formidable.
If the fruits of the martynia, found in
Louisiana, get hold of an animal they
are most difficult to remove.
A kind of grass grows in Australia, in
which the mass of inhoresence forms
a large round head, and is thus driven
for miles over the dry sands till it comes
to a damp place, when it expands and
soon takes root.
A small annual, with rounded pods,
is met with in the sandy places in
Egypt, Syria and Arabia, which, when
dry, curls itself up into ball or round
cushion, and is then driven by the wind
till it finds damp place, when it I'M
curls the pods open and the seeds drop
out.-Golden Days.

BERT'S BIRD HOUSE.
He Drew All the Plans Himself and Did
Every Bit of the Work.

Every Bit of the Work.
Bert Wallace has been building a
bird house. He drew the plans all him
self and did every bit of the work, even
to setting up the house in the corner of
the yard, where some wrens have since
taken possession of it. 1t is very easily
made, and you can, if you care to follow
his example. For the bottom of the
house he used stout board, sawed two
inches larger each way than the house
was to be. The sides he made very sim
ply, of Stats about the size of lath-lath
would do very well if you haven't any
thing better. They are securely nailed
to a strip Of wood at both bottom and
top, those for the front and back being
slanted off SO as to form the caves, as
you see in the cut. When the four sides
are made they may be fastened securely
to the bottom and slat roof put on,

with good. liberal projecting caves. Or
if you have some large shingles, they
Will do very well for roofing. At the
top you will have to put ON some ridge
caps so that the house will not leak.
Now cut a hole in front for the bird to
enter, put little porch over it and a
perching stick or two for the birds to
rest upon and your house is complete,
The best support for the house is a
small stout limb Of tree with project
ing branches, and you can. obtain it In
any woods. The branches should be
sawed OFF ss shown in the cut SO as to
form base for the house. You may
paint the house almost any color and
plant vines around it. In a year or two
it will be en- attractive addition to al
most any yard.-Chicago Record.
