THE protests of the GA r. against
the selection of Decoration day as the
date for holding their annual picnic
by the Grocers' associations of Spring
field and Carthage has borne fruit.
The arrangements Of the grocers had
progressed too far to admit Of change
for this year, but they agreed to as
sist the G. A. RPS in decoration SER
vices from IL until $50 o'clock. Fur
ther, they passed a resolution that
hereafter they would select some
other date for their picnic. This is
as it should be, and is very gratifying
to the many who have observed with
regret the recent tendency to make a
gala day of day which should be
held sacred to the memory Of the
thousands who gave up their lives on
their country's altar. The action Of
the grocers is to be heartily COM
mended.

WANTED---MEN.

The Marengo, Iowa, Democrat de-
scribes as below the kind Of men who
are wanted and for whom there Will
always he room on earth, for the cup
ply is not likely to exceed the de-
mand:
The great want of this age is men.
Men who are not for sale. Men who
arc honest, sound from the centre to
circumference, true to the hearts
core. Men who will condemn wrong
in friend or foe, in themselves as well
as in others. Men whose consciences
arc steady as the needle to the pole.
Men who will stand for the right, if
the heavens totter and the earth reels.
Men who can tell the truth, and look
the truth, and look the world and the
devil in the eye. Men that neither
brag nor run. Men that neither flag
nor finch. Men who can have cour-
age without whistling for it, and joy
without shouting to bring it. Mon
in whom the current Of everlasting
life runs still and deep aud strong.
Men too large for sectarian limits,
and too strong for sectarian bonds.
Men who do not strive, nor cry, nor
cause their voices to be heard in the
streets, but who will not fail nor be
discouraged, till judgment be set in
the earth. Men who know their mes
sage and tell it. Men who know
their duty and do it. Men who know
their place and fill it. Men who mind
their own business. Men who will
not lie. Men who are not too lasy to
work, nor too proud to be poor. Men
who are willing to eat what they
have earned, and wear what they
have paid for.

IT IS stated that the Minneapolis
mills will compete with the United
States Flour Milling company just as
they have hitherto with the mills
now composing it. Numerous at
tempts were made to secure the Min
neapolis mills, but no offer large
enough to be even temptation was
made. Representatives of the milling
interests intimate that Minneapolis
has the long end of it and will be
able to hold its own against the in
dividual milling companies compos-
ing the trusts. This illustrates one
of the weaknesses Of the trust system.
One man or set of men, properly
situated can frustrate the prettiest
scheme it is possible to organize. In
this fact, and not in lower, or no tariff
rates, lies the most effective safeguard
against trusts.

The Terrific MauSer.

Says the Fort Scott Tribune: "In
the rear of Arch Davenport's store
this morning the penetrating force of
a Mauser rifle, used by the Spanish
soldier in Cuba, was put to . test
wisN most astonishing results. One
cartridge ball fred from it at close
range at tho flat side of q iatiron,
went through the iron leaving a hole
almost as smooth as an ordinary bull
let would leave in a pine board. On
On the opposite side OF the iron,
where it came out, piece was scaled
off as if 1t were splintered board.
Then the force of the rifle was tried
on hard steel axe blade. Two balls
gouged great holes in the steel, and
ono, striking over the handle-hole
penetrated one side of the steel and
lodged in the other side, bulging the
steel out. The shots were fired by
Mr.. Davenport in the presence OF
Capt. Wilson and number OF others" !"

1t appears that until 1895 there was
an increase in the Nebraska real estate
mortgage debt; since then there has
been q decrease, most marked in 1898.
If evidence were needed that the far
mers of Nebraska are making and
saving money. the above showing
would furnish 1t. The period of debt
creation is being followed by one of
debt extinction, aud in view of the
greatly improved conditions of 1899
over those Of 1898, doubtless this
year the gross amount of releases will
yet more greatly exceed the new
flinEs.
But let It not be thought that even
If the mortgage debt on land were il-
creasing it would be sign of distress.
The experience Of individuals con-
stantly teaches that to 60 into debt
wisely is one of the best ways to lay
the foundations for future accumula-
tions. The researches of the pension
bureau proved what had long been
ly 80 per cent of land mortgages re-
present deferred purchase price, and
only an infnitesimal fraction actual
loss in farm transactions. The farm
ing history of the west is that of an
energetic and Industrious young man
buying land, paying part down and
giving a mortgage for the balance,
and where good judgment is shown
within few years being able to meet
his obligations. Perhaps as he grows
older he sells his farm to q young
man, taking in turn a mortgage for
part of the purchase price and retires
to some town to educate his children
and to spend the remaining years in
weli-earned rest.
The giver of a mortgage, instead of
being al object of pity or victim Of
the money power, is usually better off
than the man who has sQuandered his
income for extravagant living, In
fact, the much-berated mortgage Of
the west, instead of being a behemoth
whose dreadful breath is death, has
been stepping stone to financial in
dependence.
