They Don't Mention 1t.

This agricultural, religious and po-
litical guide receives several Populist
and Demo-Populist exchanges Some
of them are ably edited and contain Il
large amount of more or less interest
ing fiction. We have not observed,
however, in a single one of the eX-
changes mention of the fact that in
the month of May the government of
the United States, with Il foreign war
on its hands, with its necessary eX-
penses largely increased, has never
theless managed to pay running eX-
penses and lay by surplus of little
over two million dollars. One would
naturally think that these editors. if
they are aware of the fact that the
government has done this, would be
filled with pride. One would think
that in their eXultation and pride of
country they would rise up and say.
Bully for the United States; no other
country on earth can show such a
record. In times of war every other
country increases its debt, but the
United States carries on vigorous
war at great expense, pays its bills
and has money to spare out of its reg
ular income
Yes, we would think they would,
but they don't. Possibly, they
haven't heard of the fact. They have
been SO busy trying to find something
in the national administration TO
howl about that they haven't had
time to look over the treasury re
ports.
Still, we are not going to heap con-
tumeiy on the editors of the papers
that are trying to stand up for the co
horts.
These editors are having tough
time of it.
If one of them who. down in the
bottom of his heart. has feeling of
pride in his country's glory and mar
yeious progress, forgets himself and
speaks out in praise of the President
and of the achievements of our armies

IL mas almost been two years now
since the Populists have made any
converts in Jewell county. They
probably have not made one convert
in the whole state this year. The
bottom has fallen out of Populism,
but of course that doesn't mean that
there are not strong anti-Republican
foces still in the field. Those forces
however, are badly demoralized. and
it will be job to get the aggregation
all under one tent again. Time and
the logic of events have been the de-
stroyer of PopuliSm. The principal
teachings of that party as to the eff
feet of sound money have been entire

y mother observes: This sweet
sixteen business is delusion and a
snare. Instead of this being the most
interesting age of a girl, it is her
most foolish, reckless and trying. The
girl of sixteen lacks Judgment, would
dare what will shock her in after
years, and do things that are improp-
er. The Immature girl is not sweet,
she is saucy, pert, upish and needs
watching. Any girl who has success
fully passed out of her teens knows
this view is correct, and the girl who
gets hit will get over being mad when
older. The girl of sixteen needs look
ing after and needs it badly. l don't
think the men are nearly as bad as
anxious mothers would have us be-
lieve. My observation is that girls
are not insulted promiscously: that
men do lie in wait seeking whom they
may ruin; that the girl who gets
ruined, first puts up ensign. 1t may
be innocently, but the fact remains
that she is forward, unladylike and
audaciouS. The girl who stays in her
place misses Il few smiles but God
knows they are better missed. Snake

bring in a live rattlesnake it would
be worth ten dollars. Last Saturday
Sam WAS surprised when the old man
brought him the snake and demanded
the ten dollars. Sam got out of the
affair by telling the old man he want
ed to take it to New York and it had
been brought too soon, but it might
be sold to the American circus which
was IN town on that day. The old
gentleman at once proceeded to the
show ground and found the manager
OF the side show, who said he would
see the lady snake charmer and get
her opinion before purchasing the
reptile. When that distinguished
parsonage was introduced TO his
Snakeship, which was feet in length,
ending with seventeen rattles and
button, she squealed just like any
other woman would have done. The
show people kindly informed the old
gentleman that the ''charmer'' could
