Texts for Farmers Lay Sermoas.

l. A farmer who does not love
his business is not likely to sue
ceed. Work with no heart in it
is not apt to be we'll done, for
when the heart strsys the work
flags"
2. Hogs and hominy are ell
right in their way. But the far.
mer who provides these only or
mainly for his table supplies il
not living up to his privileges.
8. Run your farm to make Q
living from it, and you are almost
sure TO get good ono and mako
some money besides. lfyou farm
to mako money alone it is doubt
full if you get either.
4. Avoid debt as you would the
pestilence. If unavoidable meet
it brsvely and conquer it.
5. A farmers first aim should
Be to make for himself and family
q comfortable support. Then,
like the Dutchmsn in the story;
let him try to make money-ho-
nestly. if he csn-to meet the
needs of the rainy day, so sure to
come some time.
6. If you want to keep your
boy on the farm interest him in
the work by giving him an inter-
est of his labor. To add to his
interest provide him with suits-
ble books, magazines and papers.
and don't begrudge him q we'll
earned holiday now and then.
These investments will pay almost
daily dividends.
2. The most profitable acre on
tho farm is that devoted to we'll
tended vegetable and fruit garden.
8. Credit has killed moro far
mers than it has helped. Like
temper, it is an excellent thing TO
have. but be careful and not lose
il. @
I 9. Concentrate your working
capital, labor and fertilizers on
one-half the acres you sre now
tending and see if farming docs
not pay better dividends and cost
less trouble.
10. The forehsnded farmer il
generally the full-hsnded farmer.
He who keeps we'll ahead of his
work is master of the situation
and can take advantage of every
circumstance.
IL. The true policy of the
South is not to raise less cotton,
but to make it at less cost, on q
smaller acreage, more highly work
ed and fertilized, and that, too, a.
q surplus crop.-M. E. BoYroN,

by allowing them to hold the local of
fees, subject to the control of British
governors, have subdued and held in
check races that would otherwise shave
given constant trouble. There are indi-
cations that concessions are being of
fered to prominent Filipinos to induce
them to withdraw support from Agui-
naldo, and to other tribes to join forces
with the United States troops to sup
press the Tagals. This policy is new to
American officials, who have heretofore
gone in for a fight to a finish. 1t may
result in the quicker ending of the re-
bellion, but when savages surrender
without being well whipped and when
hired to be good, they generally require
constant petting to keep them from
breaking out into hostilities if growing
demands be not met.

A Christian Daily Paper.

Rev. Samuel Sheldon, an author of
some prominence, is looking for an an
gel to establish a Christian daily paper
in Chicago, with a backing of $1,000, 900,
| His ideal is a paper that shall print no
news except that which shall influence
the minds and hearts of it's readers to
their noblest impulses. The chief work
of the editor of such a journal would be
to prevent the publication of news, for
the everyday occurrences Of crime,
war, business failures, scandals, deaths,
storms, floods and the thousand things
not be said to influence the hearts and
minds of readers to noble impulses. The
good and the bad must come along to-
| gether through the newspapers, with
such j%udicious wedding out as will not
destroy the value of the daily paper as
a record of the occurrences of the world.
Some of the stories told in the daily pa
pers have a good influence, some have
a bad effect, and hundreds of items are
| educational, that may not be said to es-
peclally appeal to Christian thoughts,
nor yet to evil. But all that would not
stir readers to noble thoughts would be
excluded from such a paper. He will
never find a millionaire to risk money
in a paper that could not find readers
in this busy world, and which would
be too utterly beatific for favor in any
place nearer than the abode of the an.
gels. The minister would have to catch
one in a dream to start such IN enter.
prise, and a millionaire is a good dea,
like a weasel, never to be caught asleep
The millionaire, like the weasel, is or
the lookout for traps and hunters, and
is especially shy of those wearing the
ministerial .'arb and bats promising al
titudinous rewards in another world, in
stead of so much per cent at a more
quickly reached level.

Contest for Treasurer's Office.

Judge McFie'S action in the manda-
mus case concerning the office of terri
torial treasurer was very properly based
upon the decision in a familiar case,
where Governor Thornton removed a
Republican official and appointed a
Democratic successor. A Democratic
supreme court ruled then that in a man
damus suit for possession of the office,
the commission or evidence of appoint
ment showed the latest title to be in the
appointee. There has been no later de-
cision, and Judge McFie held that the
lower court must consider that to be the
law until a supreme court should modi-
fly it, and the district court would not
be justified in reversing the supreme
court. The last commission issued must
on it's face be recognized as carrying
title to possession until the right Of the
governor to make a vacancy and an ap-
pointment were disproved in a quo war;
ranto proceeding. Therefore, an order
was issued that the delivery of the Of
flee and all matters connected with 1t
should at once be made by the old Off
cial. The order was not resisted by the
former treasurer, and his remedy, If he
has any. will have to be sought in the
manner indicated by the court, though
it is quite likely that Mr.. Eldodt will not
desire to make n further contest.
If the ruling of the district court and
the insistence by Governor Otero upon
his right to say who shall fill an impor-
tant office under his administration that
the law makes appointive, be looked
upon from a political as we'll as a
legal standpoint, it would appear that
the most recent decision of the highest
court was not improperly invoked in
this case. 1t was given by a Democrat
ic supreme court in a case where poll
tics vas involved, although the shoe
is on the other foot this time. 1t was
not a decision made to put a Republic
an into office. The rule has at least the
merit of being found good enough to
work in a dual manner. The doctor
should not make too much of a face in
tasting a little Of a remedy prescribed
for another. Applications of other trite
sayings might be made, but lone of
them would comfort Democratic poll
ticians who wished embarrassment for
the Republican territorial administra-
ton. To see the governor deprived of
his rights, to have his action declared

employment scarce. They probably ex-

Seeking Allies.

An o~bstreperous savage chief in one
of the southern islands who has not YET
been fighting Americans, is said to have
concluded that the departure of the
Spanish was due to his warlike attitude
and 1t Is his intention to resist any at
tempt of Americans to take the place OF
the Spanish. However, IL one corre-
spondent writes correctly, an American
officer has gone to see the chief, and
taken along a present Of $4,000 in Mexi-
ear money to win the friendship of this
man-eater and his followers. The infer
ence Is that they are to be hired to at
tack the Tagals. The British have o.

and India with gold than with guns, and

Chance for a Broncho Regiment.

The FilipinoS are to have a new ex-
perience. The war department will send
$500 horses to General Otis, having al
ready ordered the bulk of them pur-
chased in the southwest. The broncho
Is to have the post of honor. The war
department will overlook an important
point if it does not realize the necessity
of sending along men who can ride the
broncho. Every American car ride a
horse fairly well, like he can shoot, with
little practice, but it is the man of the
| plains and mountains that are at home
upon the wiry, nervous beasts of the
| cattle country. General Wheeler will
command the cavalry that will chase
the Filipinos to their lairs, and this will
make cowboys who saw the brave cav
| alryman in Cuba desire to follow him to
| the islands. The man on horseback is to
be as much a feature in the fall cam
paign as the man behind the gun. The
cavalry service is especially attractive
to w~esterners. 1t was the principal
charm for rough riders and cowboys
who enlisted, who scarcely walk 10 miles
in a whole year, though they may roam
over hundreds of miles monthly, seated
in the saddle. Not a few of them would
have declined to enlist had they fore
seen that they were to be endorsed, al
though when they found themselves
afoot they were equal to the unlocked
for and unfamiliar conditions by which
they surrounded in the Cuban fight.
Tell a cowboy that you wish him to
march across a kingdom, an island, a
county or township for a fight or frolic,
and he wishes to be counted out. Ask
him to join in a horseback raid, day or
night, and the route has no terrors for

To run a newspaper without occa-
sionally publishing an item that Is un-
true or gives offense is like running a
railroad without havino accidents and
smashups. No man on earth is to so
great an extent constantly at the mer-
cy Of both friends and enemies as the
editor of a country newspaper. Pushed
continually with work, he must get
much Of his information concerning
transpiring events second or third hand
or not at all. Frequently statements are
received from supposedly trustworthy
sources which are subsequently found
to be without foundation. If, therefore,
you find yourself aggrieved by some
statement in your home paper, be char
table! Bear the above facts in mind,
and give the editor the benefit Of the
doubt, until at least you have investi-
gated. Not one editor in a thousand
wilfully Injuries either friend or foe by
Misrepresentation. Go to him and ask
for a correction, and nine times out of
ten, if your case is just, you will be re-

The Compromised rains have mate
rallied, and there is a resulting relaxa-
ton of countenance upon the part OF
sheep owners cattlemen, beet growers
and all who have been yearning for the
moisture to come down. Friday night
witnessed a good, steady rain. which
continued almost twelve hours. Sunday
night another rain, though not quite sc
heavy. was vouchsafed. Local show
ers have been numerous, and in some
localities there has been a veritable del
uge. Trainmen report that the Amarillo
and Portales country was flooded. The
range is already green, and the back
water holes are filled to an extent that
will allow stockmen to get away from
the river.
