Farmers Institutes.

We published last week in the MID.
LAND JOURNAL notice of the Institute
which will be held at Rising Sun OH the
first and second of February. The selec.
tion of Rising Sun for holding the Inst.
tute next year is of more than ordinary
interest to the farmers in the upper dis.
tricts of the county, where the live, pro-
gressive farmers of the county reside.
The Institute should give stimulus to
the farmers of this section to improve the
opportunity by forming all organization
which would assist in promoting Institute
work and increasing the benefits which
the annual Institutes offer
A farmers association might be formed
to hold monthly meetings with program
for each meeting, which might be made
to advance the interests of the farmers in
several directions. The meetings would
of course be open to the public as the
Institute meetings are, and lecturers could
be secured for some of the meetings,
which would add greatly to their public
interest and usefulness.
We throw out these hints for farmers to
consider before the Institute meetings are
held which would be an suspicious time
to form an organization, when advice and
assistance in the way of suggestions could
be had from Director Amoss and other
workers in the Institute.

Fatal to Grip Germs.

Apropos of the prevalence of the
grip in this as well as others of the
larger cities of the North, President
George Il. Angel, of the American
Humane Education Society, offers
what he claims is a panacea for the
evil. Sulphur is the preventive he
suggests.
at has been shown" he saws.
chow wearing sulphur in the cloth
ing has prevented yellow fever,
cholera and other diseases. Half a
teaspoonful of powdered sulphur in
each shoe or stocking is considered
to be sufficient. | find in the Lon
don Lancet that no less authority
than the president of the Institute
of Civil Engineers of London de-
clares that the sulphurous vapor
produced by the combustion of
coal in that city kills the disease
germs in the atmosphere. Sulphur
is very cheap, and whether it de.
stroys or keeps out germs of disease
from the body or only acts upon
the imagination it cannot do much
harm to try it. "-PhiladeIphia

number of Demorest's Magazine, is
one of unusual general interest.
An article that will be of equal
interest to scientists and house.
keepers is electricity in the
Household" by Theodore Dresser.
Mr.. Dresser gives an account, never
before published, of an invention
that will make electric power cheap
enough for economical domestic use.
"Pet Dogs and Their Owners" is
the title of a very sprightly article
on the Pet Dog Club of New York.
One of the most readable features
of this number of Demorest's is
undoubtedly the first installment of
a series of clay Sermons for
Women" of semi-humorous
nature, yet with serious intent.
There are an unusual number of
most delightful short stories, pages
of fashion that speak of Paris in
every line and word.

Senator rlOrriIi Dead.

Senator Justin Smith Morrill,, of
Vermont, died in Washington at
1:25 O'Clock Wednesday morning
from pneumonia, following an
attack of grip. Mr.. Morrill, was in
his S9th year and preserved his
mental vigor to the last.
In the death of Mr.. Morrill, the
Senate lost its senior member in
point of service and it's oldest in
age. He had served continuously
in the Senate for more than thirty
one years and he was eighty eight
years old on April IA last. With
the single exception of Hon.
Galusha Grow, of the House of
Representatives, he was the only
man in Congress whose congress
sional career began prior to the
beginning of the civil war, and he
had the honor over Mr.. Grow, in
that his congressional service had
been continuous, covering in the
Senate and House combined almost
forty four years.

State Grange held in Baltimore OF
Dec. q, the following resolutions
were unanimously adopted:
owe recommend that this body
express itself as favorable to the
extension of rural mail delivery
now being agitated for by the

"As to the pending question OF
the disposition, government and
regulation of the commerce of oul
newly acquired dependencies in the
Pacific, we recommend that this

The New Voice.

The Nes0 Voice is very great trans
formation from the old New York Voice,
which was always the stanch, uncompro-
missing organ of the political Prohibition
party, that hopeless prohibition dream
for dream it was-of prohibition with a
party behind it." With the passing of
the old Voice that political organization
is left without national organ.
No doubt the proprietors of the old
Voice saw long ago that national polit-
ical party resting only on prohibition Of
the liquor traffic, was political mistake,
but how to let go was problem not easy
of solution. The Nea0 Voiee has solved
the problem by rising out of the ashes of
the old political organization into the
field of art and literature. In makeup
and letter press the Wea0 Voice stands
abreast of the best magazine class Of the
day.
1t is to be hoped that the new paper
will devote its best efforts in drawing the
party it so long and faithfully championed
to copy its example and take new de-
parture from the mistaken theory that the
way to successfully fight the liquor enemy
was prohibition with party behind it,
Twenty-Five years of unceasing effort has
proven that method was mistake.
Prohibition thought seems to be shap.
ing itself towards prohibition Union,
which divest of cumbersome and expen.
sive party machinery can direct its blows
by solid phalanx against the enemy
wherever found
There is a sumptuary element about
prohibition law which separates it from a
question of pure political economy which
untitled it as basis on which to build E
separate and distinct political party.

Banker Gage.

The Secretary is a banker and was ap-
pointed to the position to assure the
banks that the administration proposed to
reward them for the liberal campaign
funds furnished by these institutions. He
pleads for special privileges for the banks
that will enable them TO reap enormous
gains unjustly and at the expense of the
balance of society. To him the banks
are the people. He is unable to consider
any other. If he can manage to bring
greater prosderity to the banks he is sat
isfed. To him there is nothing beyond.

Declines With Thanks.

The grog element in place of a public
and formal acknowledgment of the able
aud successful work done for their cause
in the name of better morals, sobriety
and the cause of temperance by the Dem
ocrat in the late campaign of G. og against
Nog'og, have the base ingratitude to COM
plain and censure the editor for not con,
tinuing to defend them against the revil-
ing of the temperance element who count
the DRINKS and compare the increasing
numbers with the speakeasy turnout
under the local option law.
This base ingratitude the editor resents
by telling them he has done enough and
will champion their wabbling, unsteady
cause no longer They have been granted
their license to show the public what a
fine thing high license is to restrict
drunkenness, and they must in future
paddle their own canoe.

The increase of the spirituous liquor
trade last year is shown by the Report OF
the Commissioner of Internal Revenue to
be $40, 900, 900 over the year previous, and
of the beer business to be $1,000, 900.
This is bad showing for the cause OF
prohibition. The prohibition party which
claims to have the cause under its special
care is evidently losing ground. The
movement seems to have lost its moral
suasion influence. Its political influence
is entirely nil. We think that everything
goes to prove that wrong methods have
been used by the prohibition;sts. Their
force is entirely dissipated. But they
refuse to take any advice, and like
Ephraim must be let alone.

had gone out to prepare a dinner
for them. She was in the kitchen
cooking the meal while little LLOYD
was in an adjoining room about
eighteen feet distant examining a
50 Caliber rifle to see if it was
loaded. Like many accidents OF
that kind the gun that's not loaded
always goes off. The door was open
between the rooms and Lloyd's Gu

had happened until he saw his
mother fall to the floor. The bull
