THE Bloomfield correspondent Of
the Bardstown Record writes to that
paper as follows; 81 have just heard
of a novel way in which one Of our
esteemed citizens who lives but a
short distance from town catches all
the rabbits be wants. In a woods
pasture near his home lies a hollow
log, and be noticed how quick the
cottontails made for this log when his
dog got after them. A bright idea
struck him, as 1t was a deal of trouble
to get them, the log being some twen>
ty feet long and hollow nearly all the
way. He rolled the log away
and put instead a solid one, with
large black spot painted on the end,
and all he had 10 do was to take his
dogs out, when the rabbits would
make for the log, and taking the black
spot for the hollow, would but his
brains against it. Then all he would
have to do was to shove the dead one
aside and start the dogs again and
again until he had enough"

GOOD Tln,ea Cominn.

A recent advertisement OF a Cleve-
land merchant published in The I.eas
der began with this announcement:
There's good time coming just as
sure as you are foot high"
There is a merchant who believes
in assisting the return of prosperity,
and he has adopted the best possible
way to do it, There is a good time
coming. That is certain. Prosperity
is on the wav. Some OF it is here al
ready, and the merchants are begins
ming to feel it. They will feel it more
with the revival of industrial activity
in the spring. Now is the time to
take advantage Of the improved con-
dition Of affairs The merchant must
do it by letting the public know
what he has to sell. He can do that
by advertising.
Times are perhaps better than the
people realiz Many workmen who
have been idle during the greater
part of the past two or three years are
regainiug lost employment. Many of
them are paying debts that have ac-
eumulated, but they are rapidly get
ting on their feet and will soon be in
a position to share with the merchants
the renewed prosperity they are en-
joying.
It was not to have been expected
that prosperity would return at a
bound. Three years of enforced econ
omy must have had a depressing
effect. 1t took months to reduce the
people to the condition 10 which they
found themselves after the recent
election. 1t must necessarily take
time to bring them back to prosperity
again. Men and women who have
been ecOnomizing are not inclined to
change their habits all at once.
But there is a good time coming,
and the people will not have long to
wait for it either. The future is full
OF hope for e verybody, and the more
that hopefulness finds expression the
better it will be for all. --[Clevelau1

A FEW years ago the Hartford

proud to let the name of the Hartford

Before the Ways aud Means Com
mittee on January II, Mr.. w. Colder
Of Chicago. a manufacturer OF "moss
peat" when asking for Protection
for his industry, stated that before do
nestle competition began under a
Protective Tariff the foreign price Of
moss peat was $50 per ton. but when
the home supply appeared the price
dropped to sia per ton This is only
one in long list fsimilar instances.
Such cases could be multiplied a hun
bred times; where the price OF a pto.
duct has taken sudden drop as soon
as a Protective Tariff has been put
upon it and a domestic industry has
been established. Under Free Trade
the foreign manufacturer, with his
cheap labor. has monopoly. and he
makes the most Of his opportunity to
line his pocket we'll. A Protective
Tariff puts and end to his monopoly
by permitting the American producer
to compete, and competition inevita>
bly, results in cutting down cxorbi.

for products. The ultimate result,
in every case. OF the imposition Of a
Protective Tariff and the consequent
springiug mp OF a domestic industry
and Of domestic competition has been
lowering Of prices. as experience
has shown. And yet Mr.. Cleveland

PoPULIsTs throughout the country
are becoming thoroughly disguised
with the Democratic party and are
standing boldly up for their prihci-
Piles and stunning their enemies
the Democrats on every hand
About all the Populist papers are op>
posed to fusion for spoils and are loud
in their Remuneration ofsuch methods.
The rank and file of the PopulIst par
ty have come to the conclusion that
they are being traded of like slaves
and they are kicking out Of the fusion
business. Bryan has gone entirely
back on the Populists who supported
him in the last campaign, and the
Free Republic, one of the leading
Populist papers of the United States,
says:
organs new book is dedicated to
r. P. Bland and Jas. B. Weaver aud
Henry NJ. Teller. The Hon Tom
Watson and the true blue Popul lists
who supported Bryan and Watson are
thus again insulted by this great
Democratic hero Bryan. We should
think that Bryan himself for decen-
cy's sake would have shown his ap.
probation Of Populists enoughto have
dedicated his book to his recent run
ming mate. He should know that it
is Watson and not Weaver who rep
resents tde element that nominated
Bryan at st. Louis. Bryan's book
bids fair to tall as fat as his lecture
fake. In fact there was no occasion
for his writing a book. The people
don't care to read a book written by
defeated candidate whose party was
too cowardly to assert the whole
truth on the money question, after
twenty years Of silence aud having
had full political power to right the
silver wrongs they howled about,
Bryan is a policy Democrat and the
people repudiated him because of that
fact and the fact that they knew his
party is no reform party "

NEW Works. POOR ROADS.
Important Reasons For Highway Improve
ment Throughout the State.

ment Throughout the State.
That New York is behind the times
in the matter Of good roads is recognized
by all who have given the subject any
thought. The New York Tribune,
which has long been a warm advocate
Of highway improvement, offers sug-
gestions which are worthy of the highest
consideration. 1t says:
First class roads, if not built by the
state, can be afforded only in regions
inhabited by persons of more wealth
than the average farmer. Near the large
cities are great areas tenanted by those
who have business in the city, but pre-
fer to live i'll the country. Here the
property values are much higher than
in regions exclusively devoted to farm
ing interests, and, the taxes being pro
portionately higher, it is possible to
spend more money on the roads.
Under our present law the people Of
the state work out their road taxes
without intelligent supervision, and
often not only is the labor wasted, but
the roads are spoiled. The faults of the
roads which could be remedied without
extra expense in labor are mainly these:
First. The roads are too narrow and
too high in the center. On account Of
the narrOwness the wheels all run in
the same track, and the extreme curva-
ture of the roadbed cOmpels the wheels
to run on the edge instead Of the surface
of the tires, the combination Of the two
faults causing the formation Of deep
ruts.
Second. Loose stones are allowed to
remain in the roads, and the work is
not directed toward keeping the roads
smooth.
The Legislation hitherto proposed has
only aimed at few state roads. This
is insufficient. Trained supervision is
needed over all roads.
The important reasons for road i'm
provement throughout the state are
three-first, the desirability of reducing
the cost of hauling; second, the impor-
lance of making most of the roads fit
for pleasure driving, thereby attracting
to the rural districts in summer thou
sands of people who create a local mar
ket for various farm products; third, the
economic principle Of preventing the
great waste of labor which is now fruit
lessly expended in making bad roads.
