The conversation turned upon the transmigratien of souls. Mr. Choate was asked if he eonldn't be him self in the other world who he would rather be. "Well." he said, If in the other world there must be reincarna- ton, and couldn't be myself. believe I would rather be Mrs. Choate's second husband. LEX.

In the midst of our concern about distant islands of the sea, the defective government which Spain has given the Philippines, and the incompetency of the Cubans and the natives of the Philippines to govern themselves, parochial politics in this country are lively, and in our view, important. Race wars are going on in North Caro- lima, Alabama and Mississippi. In Mississippi eleven negroes have been killed, and the whites in the neighbor- hood of Forest seem to be out gunning for blacks as if they were game. The reign of law was suspended for several days, until Sheriff Stephenson came to aid her outraged majesty, and with the aid of fifty good citizens carried five of the negroes in safety to jail at Meridian. In North Carolina the fighting be- tween the whites and the blacks seems to spring from politics. Owing to MT. McKinley's appointment of black poli- ticians to office, the whites there ep- pear to dread the return of negro rule. Now, although Sheriff Stephenson is engaged in the vindication of the right of the blacks to live, and is also vindi- eating the majesty of the law, he is, according to the expansionists, simply performing narrow duties in the sphere of parochial politics We nevertheless. for our part, regard his conduct in the performance of his duty as heroic and useful us was the conduct Of any of 9uT heroes Ut Santiago or at Manila, In fact, we are inclined to think hia com duet essentially more heroic thau the bravery Of the soldiers iu battle, be- cause he stood up against public opin- ion in his own community, and invited persecution, and perhaps ostracism, while the soldiers who fought in the war were sure of praise and honors.- [Harper's Weekly.

Farmers who have been holding back their wheat in tie hope of getting bet
 ter prices than those which have pre- vailed since the collapse of the Letter deal at Chicago. win probably not be disappointed. The outlook is certainly encouraging according to tho latest issue of Clews' Financial Review. s'The European wheat trade, ? it says, "has come to understand that, notwithstand- ing the moderate increase in the worlds crop of this year over that of 1897, the supply from new stock and
 crop on hand will not be up to the average standard, and they are conse- quently advancing their bids for krner- ican wheat. The extent of the current
 foreign demand may be inferred from the fact that, within the last ten days, engagements have been made for the export of l0,000,000 bushels of wheat.

MT. Dooley (created by Mir. Peter Dunne of the Chicago JournaI is 3 most delightful person, with whom we have become acquainted since the outbreak of the war. He watches well all that goes on and forms his own opinions, and others can enjoy them to a good purpose.

Handbook of the Tariff.

The understanding of the complicated provisions of the new tariff has been greatly simplifed by the issuance of this manual. To digest the tariff law is no easy task, but to digest the food taken into the gastric receptacle is rendered easy by the use of that thorough stomachie, Hostetter's Sto- mach Bitters. It prevents and cures malarial, kidney and rheumatic troub- le, remedies nervousness and in- somnia, and removes constipation and bil1ooaness. Appetite, as well as the ability to satisfy it without subsequent abdominal disturbance is restored by sisis iiue ssonlachie, winch also ac- eeleratts convalescence. Persons in the decline of life, and the infirm of every age and sex, find it of material assistance.

The work of removing the bodies of all government soldiers buried in Cuba, Porto Rico and Manila, will begin in a few weeks. The expenses of the un- dertaking will be borne entirely by the Government. It appears that notwith- standing strict orders and the extraor- dinary precautions taken, many bodies occupy unknown graves before Santia- go. In cases where the names of the dead are unknown, the bodies will be buried in national cemeteries unless the States which the dead represented in the service demand them.

The County Fair.

The directors of the Caledonia county
fair met recently and decided upon some
of the attractions for the fair, Sept. 13,
IA and Is. The premium list will be
distributed early next month and it will
be seen that in many instances there has
been a notable increase in the premiums
offered with the intention OF getting
a larger exhibit of live stock than ever
before. Prof. c. c. Bonette will make a
balloon ascension on the last two days
OF the fair. He will use hot air balloon
and give startling parachute descents
each day. Bicyclists will receive especial
attention this year and prizes to the
amount OF $50 have been offered for the
best trimmed wheels. A bicycle parade
will be held the second day of the fair
and prizes OF So, SO and So offered gen
tlemen for the best decorated wheels and
the same amount Tor the ladies' wheels.
In addition $40 will begiven to the town
sending the best decorated wheels ridden
by five ladies and FIVE gentlemen, and So
Tor the second best exhibit of five ladies
and five gentlemen from any one town.
The arrangements for this parade are all
in the hands of a large committee, of
which Carl H. Turner is chairman. Other
attractions will be announced later and
the prospects for good fair are better
than ever.

After the Storm.

The village has not recovered from the
effects OF the heavy storm of last week
Tuesday, when by actual measurement
495 inches of rain fell in about two
hours. This is probably the heaviest
rainfall ever recorded in one shower and
some summers no more rain falls in a
month than fell last week in one after
noon. Our estimate Of the loss was alto
gether too low and $4,000 will hardly
cover the loss to the village streets, side.
walks, etc. Supt. Russell increased his
force of men threefold and has since been
busily at work repairing the damages.
l. will be impossible to put the streets
in as good condition as they were before
without making more permanent inn
provements than the taxpayers would
care to pay for this year.
Among the private losses one OF the
most unfortunate was that which befell
Judge Henry c. Ide. His furniture,
books, Samoan souvenirs, ETC., were
