We are now being overwhelmed. We
admit that in the last year the famine
that has prevailed in India and the
famine conditions that have prevailed
in Europe have sent up the price OF
wheat, and as we pointed out some
time ago, the increased price of wheat
tended to increase the price of other
food products. But normal crops the
world over have caused wheat to ap-
proach its normal price, which is
about the price of an ounce of silver,

The Republicans admit now that the
gold standard is impossible by endeav-

the present money of the country. II
there is any hope that by permitting
the present campaign to drag, and per-
hitting the Republican party to win
this fall without serious fight, that
the silver question will be put out of
sight forever, that hope may as well
be cast aside; for the financial ques-

Obituary.

Died-At her home in Arcadia VAL
ley. Suly q. 1898, Mrs. Minerva Huff.
beloved wife of Stephen Hut, aged IS
years, 9 months and IA days.
She was the loving mother of nine
children. eight OF which she left to
mourn her departure, while the ninth
one having proceeded her but short
time.
The angel Of death has again visited
our earthly household and taken
from our midst our precious mother.
Many happy hours have we spent with
her. Oh, how we miss her sweet voice
and loving smiles and known that none
can fill her vacant chair. But now her
sufferings are over; she has reached
the eternal home where there is no
more pain or sickness.
She had been a member of the Meth
odist church some 80 years, and she
left US with the assurance that she was
glad to go home to Jesus. Loved ones,
in your sorrow remember our loss is
her eternal gain, and heaven is richer
for presence. Then think of her as an
immortal flower taken from earth to
bloom in the sweet fields of Eden.
Oh softly wave..the silver hair
From off that aged brow,
That crown of glory worn so long
A fitting crown is now,
Fold reverently the weary hands
That toiled SO long and well,
And while your tears of sorrow fall
Let sweet thanksgiving SWELL
How bright she always made her home
1t seemed as if the floor
Was always fecked with spots of sun,
And barred with brightness Ger.
Oh, gently fold the weary hands
That toiled SO long and well
The spirit rose to angel bands
When off earth's mantel fell.
She's safe within her fathers house,
Where many mansions be;
o, pray that thus such rest may come,
Dear hearts, to thee and me!
A DAUGHTER.

AS we roam over parts of Reynolds,
Iron, Dent and Washington counties
we find great diversity of country, peo-
pie, and opinion.
The heavy rains of recent date have
done much damage to growing crops,
and haye completely erased every YES
tige of roads in some places. Many
fertile fields are now an arid waste of
sand and gravel, and to continue the
present assessment upon such farms
would be gross injustice to the farm
ers whose farms are thus destroyed
forever.

In Memory OF Mamie Hitzmann,

Little Mamie, thou art gone,
Empty is thy bed;
And thy parents now do mourn
For their darling girl that's dead.
She persisted like the flowers,
Quietly she passed away,
Leaving this sinful world of ours,
Safe in the arms of Jesus lay!
For weeks we watched you languish,
But when you were called to 60
Hear the mothers wall of anguish,
See the fathers head bent low.
And watched thy frail clay
Struggle then in the arms of death:
Saw thy face grow ashen gray,
Heard the last faint quivering breath.
And without sigh or tear,
They arrayed thee for the tomb;
For / knew this flower so dear
On fairer shore must bloom.
She is numbered with the blest,
Why should we her loss deplore?
There is on earth one child less,
In heaven one angel more.
She was so frail flower,
All her life was full of pain;
Parents, had you the power
Would you call to earth again?
Though God thy child has taken,
Thy sorrowing cry He's heard;
Let thy faith be not shaken
Seek ye comfort in His word!

10 have Robbie hear his father call
names and exploit his ill-temper. but
Mr.. Jones was in that very common,
very human. yet very cruel frame Of
mind that finds a satisfaction in vent
ing it's discomfort and ill-temper on
some other human being; and although
he loved his wife and was in the main
n kind husband. yet when he was in one
Of his Irritable spells" she was usually
the victim.
II was good half mile TO the station,
and when Mr.. Jones reached II he was
in a glow of perspiration, besides be-
ing almost exhausted with his walk
through the deep unbroken snow. Ar
irving there, he learned what he had
not suspected before. that the storm
was one Of the heaviest and most dis
astrous of the season; that wires were
down In all directions and that no
trainE had passed or were likely 10 pass
for some hours. The alternative
seemed TO be either 10 stay in the cold
and dismal station or 20 return home.
The idea Of morning at home was not
very alluring TO Mr.. Jones. He was at
home so little except Oh Sundays that
he really felt quite awkward and out OF
place there at any time but evenings
and Sundays. Then he had not forgot
ten the encounter with Robbie, nor for
given the household management for
the poor breakfast and the cold house.
Just at this juncture n neighbor
drove up TO the station in beautiful
cutter, filled with furs. His horses
were full Of life and spirit and their sill

air. He was accompanied by his wife,

merry smile told Of her enjoyment OF
the ride. On learning the state of af-
fairs regarding the trains, he said:
"Well, wife, it's no use fretting; there
maynt be a train till noon. Let's GO
home and get the children and have
jolly sleigh-ride. 1t will be n real lark
to have an extra morning with them.
Here, Jones. jump In and We'll take you
home"
Mr.. Jones climbed into the sleigh,
we'll pleased to be saved the laborious
walk home. But what affected him
most was the unaffected good humor
OF his friend and his friends wife.
Both were enthusiastically remarl0ing
on the beauty Of the morning, the trees
covered with icicles 10 the tip OF every
slender. leahess branch; on the bright
ness and intense blue Of the sky; on
the feathery snowdrifts piled on every
side. Mr.. Jones had noticed none OF
these things; he had been affected only
by the inconvenience Of the walking
and the loss OF his day In the city. But
such good humor rs that shown by his
neighbors was contagious, and, since
his attention was directed to II, he real
lied that the snow-covered landscape
was truly magnificent. mo artist
could ever begin TO represent its beau
ty." said his neighbours wife. "What
were ali the art galleries of the world
compared TO this?"
BY the time Mr. Jones was set down
- IL L. 10
dergone an entire change. He felt
ashamed OF his petulance, and especial
ly OF the slap he had given Robbie. He
determined TO find the little fellow and
make the best amends he could. He
also felt glow Of kindly sympathy for
his wife In her care for the babies that
was somewhat unusual TO the hurried
business man. Yet he shrank from
meeting his wife directly; he was not
quite ready 10 acknowledge the mean
ness OF his irritability and language OF
the morning, so he decided 10 go
through the dining-room, which was
still very cold, and make a detour
through the basement and kitchen TO
look ut the furnace.
In the kitchen Bridget, who had long
been the faithful maid OF all work
stood gazing into the cooking stove,
where smouldered few black dying
Goals. Her countenance wore an ex-
preston that was a mixture OF distress
and anger. An hour before Mr.. Jones
would have begun at once 10 rate her
sharply for her badly prepared break
fast, but now he only said:
"why. Bridget. what's the matter
with the stoveP"
"Wcll. sir. sure there's no dhraft AT all
at all. and whin thry 10 make quick
fire there's the way II serves me. Sure
It's the CRATE that's broken and dropped
down that chokes the fire. A poor CELL
can't do any cooking on that stove"
Mr.. Jones conscience pricked him.
Ills wife had told him several times
about the broken CRATE; had written
down the name and number OF the
stove and begged him send IL from the
city. but he had forgotten IL. He saw
the impossibility of doing any good
work with such a poor instrument rs
this. and then he said,
