A FEW hours between trains in
P hillipsburg on Monday, says John
Conway IN the Norton Champion,
we're agreeably past with Frank
Means who exercised us past the fine
homes of its citizens. Will Granger
we discovered in blue jeans irrigating
his mixer, garden and trees. Mrs.
Ollie /, Royce, her pretty niece
Whose name is forgotten) and two
small boys were discovered few
steps beyond in that sublime insur-
rection known as croquet. Later at
the Blssell hotel uncle John recount
ed some very interesting early county
history and political intrigues lnvolv-
ing Justices Of the peace, postmasters
and congressman. He is fund of
dry humor when IN reminiscent
mood. We met also an ancient
friend, }. w. Page. lie was q
harnessmaker at Lansing, Iowa, in
the latter sixties when we paved
with our bare feet his leather heaps
for sweeplngs. Calls himself only
&C, is proud Of a horse yet and rides
one for a hobby; black brows and
gray hair as if, when soused into the
fountain of perpetual youth, the en-
vious waternymphs sponged him dry
again excepting the eyebrows which
will remain black to the end of time.
He is the father of Ed. A. Page and
Mrs. Gus. Cook both Of whom were
born under the shadow of Mt
Hosmer named because the sculp-
tress beat a Mississippi steamboat
crew in race to it's summit.

JOIN WANAMAKER has created a
sensation in Philadelphia by speech
which he made at the banquet of the
business mems league of Philadel-
phia. Wanamaker criticised the Nc
Rinley administration, saying;
THE country is not prosperous.
Since the outset Of the last Presi-
dental campaign the party press and
political leaders generally fixed the
November election of 1896 as the date
of the beginning Of good times. A
full half of the year has expired since
the will of the republican party was
declared. Thus far but one of the
important issues Of the campaign is
nearing settlement and hardly any
noticeable improvement Of the wretch
ed times is manifest. The tide will
soon set in strongly against the re-
publican party udless the depression
of business is altered, Idleness and
want breed bitter discomfort, which
will never be overcome till there are
ample employments.
"The foes America has to fear are
not the Sultan of Turkey, nor the in
surgents of Cuba, nor the territory
grasping British, but they are our
patient and heart-tired people, our
own suffering, much promised peo-
pie, who, betrayed and disheartened,
no longer have faith in their party
and will turn to any leadership that
offers promise of better times, believ-
ing that worse times can never come
than those now existing. 1t is a ter
rible thing to observe public senti-
ment adrift and unexplained, the
people sweeping away from the af-
lection to the old party"
1.-THE young men are growing up
indifferent to the republican prlnci-
pies, with no respect for parties of
broken platforms who use national
and state patronage in payment OF
election contracts. The political re-
ligion of the nation is falling lower
and lower under insults to intelli-
gence, violation of law and reckless
daring of INSCRIPTIONS bosses.
"There will most assuredly come a
day when there will be a mighty re-
volt and resistance, resulting in a
revolution that will give birth to a
new political party. Laws continual
ly despised and disregarded, legisla-
ton conceived for Matchmaking pnr-
poses, speculation by public officials
in trust and other stocks, while tariffs
aud other financial bills are pending,
must surely and irrevocably ALLEVIATE
the people from their party and
awaken a disposition and despers-
ton to substitute almost any wild
and untried leadership with the hope
OF possible relief"
The reference to bosses liz taken az
covert attack on Quay and Hanna.
The speech is all the more SEN
sational because of President Nc
Kinley's presence in the city at the
time.

Elder 0, L. Smith received last
week call from the Christian
church at Lincoln, Kansas, at sal
airy above that which he was receiv-
ing here. Evangelist Sims realized
that the church in Wellington would
suffer severe loss by his removal
and without consulting Ed. Smith
he went before the official board
realizing the value Of their PASTORS
services unanimously expressed them
selves favorable to raising his salary
5000 beginning the first OF May, II
the church was willing and could
raise the money. ED. Smiths abb
sence at Belle PLANE Sunday was
taken advantage OF by Evangelist
Sims and the church, and additional
pledges to the amount OF 1896 Was
quickly raised for the purpose and it
is hoped that Ed. Smith will decline
the call from Lincoln, which we are
advised is very urgent, but the matter
has not yet been definitely determin-
ed. Ed. Smith Is very popular with
his congregation and with the people
of Wellington and Sumner county.
He has done excellent work for the
church here, IS a splendid, scholarly
preacher and we sincerely hope he
will remain with US. wellington

The Drift in AgricuIture

The bulletins from the experimental
stations throughout the country, so far
as they have recently come into our
hands, almost without exception show
that the subject Of fertilization Is de-
manding and receiving increased atten-
ton. The sleepy, easy-going method of
soil analysis and mechanical supply
or Economy of plant food as the
chemists may determine, all this has
been proved to be disastrous failure,
and to a great extent has been abandon
ed Practical men, therefore, at the sta
tions are busy in finding out the best
way to improve crops by giving the
soil such available supplies of nitrogen,
phosphoric acid and potash as may be
determined after trial with test plots.
These bulletins largely agree in the con-
clusion that experiments alone can be
relied on to tell the wants Of the fields:
and they seem also to be nearly unani-
nous in the opinion that all the main
elements of plant food, in every case,
should enter into the composition of the
fertilizer. The proportion Of these ele-
ments this made the chief question to
be answered in the experiments. In
vestigation has thus been turned from
the soils to the applications which the
soils require to secure the varied prod
ucts most richly and abundantly. In
the process of these most promising
Investigations many questions arise Of
the greatest interest to all tilIers Of the
ground, and the readers Of the Herald
may expect to receive the benefit Of
these researches a. rapidly as they ma4
