John q. Springer. secretary Of the

their own interests. These interests
are Of such importance that too much
attention cannot be given them. In no
better way can the proper attention be
given than by an organization through
which thoughts and systems may be
presented and discussed. and a united
effort be made to restrict causes for

Another common method Of fraud
consists in mixing old or dead" seeds
with fresh material. In some cases
seeds Of an entirely different variety or
species are thus mixed with good seed.
Care is generally taken, Of course. to
employ seeds that are: 90 similar in
shape and appearance as to make de-
lection dificult to the ordinary OBJ
server. To prevent the fraudulent seed
from growing, and thus disclosing the
fraud, it is first killed by heating or
chemicals. In this way the seeds Of
black medic are mixed with those Of
red clover. KILLED" seeds Of charlock
are frequently mixed with those Of
rutabaga and turnip. which it re-
.sembles very closely. A certain fam
lily in London made q business Of sup
plying seedsmen with "killed" seeds Of
charlock for twenty years. Similar
practices are known to exist in America
at the present time.

Weeds and Frost.-1t Is common
mistake to suppose that all weeds are
killed by frost, and when good freeze
has come they give the weeds in gar
dens and among hoed crops no further
attention. The truth is that some Of
the worst weeds are not injured by
light frosts, but are thereby melted to
produce few seeds to perpetuate their
species the following season. Very
small weeds, only two ar three inches
high. viii do this Thsfsafest way Il
to plow or cultivate them under the

perpetual Motion BY protection.


The California argument for higher
fruit duties is a sort Of perpetual mo-
ton. The only disadvantage the Cali
fornian fruit raiser is at is TO be found
in the cost of his land, but tho only
thing that palSes his land expensive is
the profitableness Of fruit culture.
So the matter works out in this way;
The great profits of fruit raising sent
the value of land up to hundreds of dol
lars an acre. The interest on the value
of the land makes a large item i'll q
fruit raiser's balance sheet, and he feels
the need of high price for his fruit.
This Senator Jones procures for him by
letting ii be known that be will not
vote for the tariff bill unless it contains
duties on hides and increased duties ON
fruit and the cheapest sorts of wool.
The increased duty adds to the profits
of fruit culture, and the price of land
takes another rise, whereupon the fruit
grower complains that the interest on
his land investment is SO great or the
rental he has to pay for his land is so
high that there is an insufficient profit
in the business for him. and the only
thing that will save him from disaster
is more duty.
Logically this process can be carried
on indefinitely. Practically it cannot,
because with the increase in the price
of fruit the consumption Of fruit will
decline. The consumer will be worse
off for the change. The grower, SO far

The newspapers that are discussing
the bicycle question seem to be un-
aware Of the fact that the late calami-
tous legislature passed a law depriving
cities entirely of the right to legislate
for the regulation Of bicycle riding
within their limits. Whether such a
law would stand the judicial test is
very doubtful but the fact remains
that the law exists. Whether it was
corruption or stupidity that promoted
the law IS not known, nor the reasons
for it, but there was some unexplainss
able force pushing the law along to
success. The law is really iniquitous.
1t deprives cities of the right to ex-
ercise the authority grandchildren by
their charter, and in direct terms pro-
hibits any municipal bicycle legisla-
tion that is not ia perfect harmony
with the provisions of the State law.
But whatever may have induced the
passage Of such an iniquitous PROPOSE
ton the fact remains that it is an out
rage upon the cities that they are de-
priyed of this right to legislate for
their ownright and safety. 1t is now
contrary to the statute Of this State
for this city to provide any regula-
tions concerning the riding of bicycles
except such as allowed by the statute
itself. 1t is contrary to the law of
the state for the city to require the
use of lamps on wheels at night, or
bells in day time unless in accord with
this statute. This state law in re-
gard to bicycles is only one Of the in
Vulnerable crude, imperfect, foolish
and iniquitous acts of the last legisla-
ture. = Parkersburg Sentinel.

Opinions Received.

izent of the state giving their views
on the proposed amendments in an
swer to the circular letter contain
ing interrogatories respecting amend
ments to be discussed sent out be-
fore the adjournment of the Consti-
tutional committee at the last SEES
sion. They were from lawyers, judges
and representatives of various Pro-
fessions and occupations and the
views embodied were almost as
varied as numerous,in the main, but
on particular points the preponder-
ance of opinion was against the dis
tribution of the irreducible school
fund, in favor Of the abolishing the
independent school districts, in ia
vor of leaving all salaries to legisla-
tive action and strongly opposed to
female suffrage.

Mr.. Isaac Horner, proprietor of the
Burton House, Burton, w. Va, one Of
the best known men in the state
was cured OF rheumatism after three
years of suffering. He says: II have
not sufficient command of language to

my physicians told me that nothing
could be done for me; and my friends
were fully convinced that nothing but
death would relieve me of my suffer-
ing. In June, 1894, Mr.. Evans, then
salesman for the Wheeling Drug Co.
recommended Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. At this time my foot and limb
were swollen to more than double
their normal size and it seemed to me

New Way to Get Rid of once Seekers.

A Texas Congressman is detailing
the following incident. A colored
gentleman from his state very de-
sirous to obtain the position of Con-
sui at Jamaica, or Dahomey, or. any
where else, called to see the Presi-
dent at the White House for about
the 25th time; when the President
informed him, that there was no use
in him remaining here any longer,
that these consular positions could
not be filled for some time yet, and
advised him to go home and wait.
The Texas aspirant looked very
crestfallen at the words of the Pres
ident, but said he would be glad to
go home, but he did not have "a cent
to go on, whereupon, so the story
goes, the President gave him $40
1t is supposed that when this story
becomes thoroughly known, that the
President will have several appli-
cants under like conditions, as
Washington has about 100000
colored people in it who will all
want to. take trip, the President
will have room for all his spare
ten dollar bills.

Reflections of q Bachelor.

Sooner or later the world comes to
respect the man who never takes the
trouble to give a reason for anything.
The liberty which man hates most
to give up when he gets married is the
liberty Of loving other women.
When the devil got into the Garden
of Eden he probably told Eve he had
been sent to fix the gas meter. u
The average women would good
deal rather see her husband bitten by
mad dog than kissed by another
women.
A girls idea Of being unhappy is to
be at pathetic play and find she has
only got an old hemstitched pocket
handkerchief.
Very few married ministers ever
preach from the text that says there
is no marriage in heaven without
trying to explain around it in some
way.
