A man must reap as he sows. If he sows
ill-health he will reap ill-health: If he
neglects his health the weeds OF disease

they are counting death. 1t lies in most
every mans power to live to green olo

When a man owns hundred dollar horse,
and it gets sick, he does not waste any time
about doctoring him up. When his garden
gets full of weeds, he doesn't delay about
roofing them ont, for he knows they will
choke out his vegetables. When he Is out

All this ELUSIVE cordially between
the German Emperor and the Sultan of
Turkey means something. So much
money would not be spent on the re-
ception of a Christian sovereign merely
passing through Constantinople on his
way to the Holy Land, unless the Mos
lem entertainer expected to profit by
it. The reported desire of the kaiser
to secure land for colonizing purposes
in Asia Minor may offer some explana-
ton, but scarcely sufficient one. The
important meaning of it to the world
at large, however, is that Turkey and
Germany are on the most friendly
terms. and while these relations con-
tinue the position of the Turk en-
camped in Europe" is secure.

glue which he has discovered. He says
that this material exists In a certain
Maine plant which is grown very
abundantly and which can be collected
for almost nothing above the cost Of
hauling it to the mills. This material
is then not so very unlike wood pulp,
only 1t is not as costly to produce. It
is one half clay and one half saw dust
while the leavening quantity is the
vegetable glue. The stuff is rolled out
into sheets and dried, after being
pressed betweenimmense rollers, tillitis
as hard as "a board" 1t is then ready
for use on the walls of the buildings.
Nails are driven through 1t as easy as
through maple board, and it is about
as heavy. Its ability to stand the
weight of heavy substances Is said by
the owner to be very great. 1t will
only be used. however, for the walls
of houses. and to it will be nailed the

Senator Simon, the new senator from
Oregon, is not only Hebrew, but he
is single man and has been referred
to as one of the few who have risen
high in politics. He is not, however,
singular as a bachelor among polite
ians who have risen to high RESPONSE
bility. Thaddeus Stevens, James
Buchanan, Charles Sumner, Samuel j.
Tilden and David B. Hill We're all
bachelor statesmen. So was Washing
ton Irving, one of our ministers to
Spain. Sumner, when his political
fame was all won and his political ca
reer nearly over, married at fifty five
years of age, but soon was divorced.
During their whole Washington politi-
cal life, Martin Van Buren,, Aaron
Burr, Andrew Jackson, Andrew John
son, Senator Bayard, George S. Bout
well, President Arthur and Salmon p.
Chase were widowers. Cleveland,
when first elected President, was un-
married.

These figures from the New York
Times are interesting: Hawaii, which
we annexed last summer has popu-
lation of 100000. Porto Rico, which has
just become United States territory,
Philippines have a population of T.
100000. The United States, exclusive
of new possessions, has fully 75,000,00O
people at this time. The census OF
1900 will show a total population OF
$4,000, 900, provided we take all the
Philippine Islands" This is certainly
getting to be a big country, and can
be justly proud of it's marvellous
growth"

The general consensus OF opinion
seems to be that Admiral Dewey
should not only be kept on the active
Secretary Long, but that he should be
kept on the active list for life. 1t
would always be a source of gratifica-
ton to the American people to know
that If any trouble should come up our
old hero Dewey might be on hand for
active service. and in addition it is
likely that it would have a great moral
effect in any threatened war to merely
start Dewey on the way to the country
showing hoStilities.

mountain which bears it's name, over
looking the ocean and Frenchman's

Dashes on rocks and shore
Dealing a common fate.

And then, the shades withdrawn,
This awful sight must meet
The pale, weird face of morn.

may be surmised from it's figures on
Massachusetts,. In that state there are
13 districts of which IL are safely Re-

doing some tall hustling to save his
head. Yet the New York Journal
has IA districts of which three are

Gold oemocr,.. and the Coming Election.


President John X. Cowen. Of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. sound
money Democrat, is convinced that his
party is ..hopelessly committed to the
free silver and greenback heresy," and
believes that it Is the duty of every
sound money Democrat to vote for Re-
publican candidates for Congress. In
an interview. last week, Mr.. Cowen
expressed his belief that the country is
on the upward path and that an un-
usually prosperous period is directly
before us, If present political condf-
tions are unchanged. But he gives this
solemn warning: II happen to be
brought into close contact with large
financial operations. l do not hesitate
to say that the election Of a Democratic
House by the present Democratic or
ganization would have a strong ten
dency to depreciate every American
security, both on the exchanges of this
country and abroad. The f1nanciers OF
Europe would regard such an election
as a step backward, and the timid cap
italist would fear to invest in our Sc
curities. Capital at home would like
wise hesitate to make new invest
ments. and many enterprises would be
delayed and restricted while capital
was waiting to see what would be
done''
The. menace of Democratic House
of Representatives during the next two
years is one SO serious that it over
shadows local issues in every state.
There is now every probability that
there will be. for the first time since
free silver became national issue, a
sound money majority in the Senate
after March 4 next. With a. similar
majority in the House it will be pos
sible TO enact a currency measure in
line with the St. Louis platform, and
assurance will be given to the bust
ness interests of the country that no
assault upon the currency by it's
enemies can possibly succeed. But a
Democratic majority of single vote
in the House of Representatives would
suffice to inaugurate another era of de-
preston and loss. A Democratic
speaker would appoint committees on
coinage, on banking and the currency
which would formulate into bills
the widest kind of financial heresies,
and the House would be able to pass
them. Such bills would probably be
killed in the Senate, or certainly in the
White House. but their effect, in our
own and other countries, would be
disastrous to business interests. A
Democratic House would also veto any
wise measure of currency reform which
a sound money Senate might adopt
There is but one safe, consistent,
effective course for sound money Dem
ocrats to adopt in this campaign, and
that is the one President Cowen recon-
mends, to vote only for Republican
candidates for Congress who will stand
by the President on the currency as
well as on all other matters.
