Lawrence JenersOnian (POp).
The most disgusting piece Of so-called
smart alec" journalism was perpetrated
by the Lawrence Journal. On last Tues
day evening this sheet, claiming to be a
great newspaper, contained the silliest
lot Of rot ever penned, II slandered the
town, maligned many Of our best citi.
zens and lied about Mr.. Bryan and his
enthusiastic admirers. When the Jour-
nal roasted him for speaking for pay
(the amount he received being $176),
1t thought it had made political hit, but
before the article appeared Mr.. Bryan
had made a proposition to Chancellor
Snow to give $3.50 for the benefit Of the
university. One would have thought
that the Journal would certainly feel
cheap now and make Mr.. Bryan an
apology, but the Journal has sunk so
deep into slime and corporation toady-
ism that it can't even be decent. When
Chancellor Snow, who entered into the
affair with spirit, learned that Mr.. Bryan
would address the students at the opera
house on yesterday morning at 10 o'clock
he asked the Journal to announce the
fact on their bulletin board, but was
fatty refused. Mr.. BOWersOck donated
the use of the opera house and did all in
his power, as every public citizen should
to make Mr.. Bryan's visit a pleasant
one.
While we are on the subject we want
to say that the Lawrence World and all
the leading, broad-gauged Republicans Of
the city treated Mr.. Bryan with the cour-
tesy due such distinguished guest. AL
OF the liberal merchants decorated their
business houses and by so doing showed
themselves to be true patriots and good
citizens. The Journal has not helped its
business prospects by its narrow course

The Walking Horse.

We hear a great deal about the running
horse and nearly as much about the trot-
ting horse, but very little about the
walking horse The first two are valu-
able in their way, but neither Of them
is as much needed in this country as the
last.
A slow-walking team makes work drag
in spite of every effort Of the driver,
Farm work must be done with the horses
at walk, and a slight difference in the
rate at which the team gets over ground
makes a great difference in the amount
of work accomplished.
The great trouble with most farm
teams is that they are allowed to get
into the habit Of dragging along at the
rate of about two miles an hour, even
when going unloaded, and this habit be-
comes fixed and impossible to remedy,
for the farm horse that gets in the no.
tion Of going slowly will poke along in
spite Of any urging that may be used.
There is much farm work that is very
light on the team. Cultiyating Is not
heavy work, and drawing moving ma
chine does not call for more than small
fraction Of the power horse may exert
without injury. Hauling loads to mar
ket is not heavy work, when the roads
are good, and all these kinds Of work
should be done with the team walking
at rate that would keep man on
comfortable dog-trot all the time.
The fast-walking horse is made in
breaking the colt He usually wants to
go too fast, and Is held down until he
comes to believe that his gait Is to be
a dragging walk. If the colt is trained
to walk up briskly, but not trot; If he is
never allowed to trOt until he is thor
oughly trained to walk as fast as he
can without trOtting, there will be no
trouble about his walking in after life.
When the colt that is being trained be-
gins to lag, touch him gently with the
whip to let him know that he must
move up a little more briskly, but do
not strike him hard enough to hurt and
excite him. Make him keep on walking
as fast as he can, and the habit will soon
become fixed one, and his value will be
increased about rs per cent. as far as
farm work is concerned, and when ready
for market will bring price consider
ably in excess of another animal of the
same breeding that can not be made to
walk briskly.-Farmer' Voice.

Few bodily affIicGons are more terrible
than heart disease. To live in constant

Is for most people more awful to coNtem-

about twice as fast as the ordinary machine,
