enthusiastically argued by the Repub-
licans that the result in Ohio is Il rous-
ing endorsement OF Mckinley, as is the
result in Kentucky, where it appears
the Republicans are likewise victorious.
His friends are jubilantover the result,
and claim that he is the logical candi-
date for reelection next year. Mr.
Bryan, whose personality has doubtless
lent the contest as much significance
as that Of the President, comes out
with flying colors victorious in his own
State against the most methodlcal,
systematic, and harmonious organlza-
ton possible for political party.
And here the issues were sQuarely
drawn, the Republicans fearing to
drag the personality of Mr.. Bryan and
Mr. Mckinley into the fight. The Re-
publicans claim the endorsement Of
Mckinley, the resultindicates ahealthy
BRYAN sentiment, and the next race,
viewed from popular criterion, will
be between these two leaders, with
chances greatly in favor of Bryan,
provided the 16 to plank in the Clica-
60 platform is dropped.

This years experience is the most
convincing proof that a small crop OF
cottonlfs more profitable than large
crop, and if the cotton growers would
only be wise enough and far-sighted
enough to plant only one-half the
acreage in cotton that they have been
accustomed to devote to that crop, the
Price next year would be higher than
sit has been In ten years.

The department. of agriculture at
J Washington, insits report issued on the
10th inst, says that on the basis of
highest estimates Of the area under
cultivation in cotton, 2S;50O, 900 acres,
the crop cannot exceed 9,5OO,0OO bales.
This estimate, it is claimed by the de-
partment, is based on most complete
information. 1.-THE departmenthasno
been misinformed, the price of cotton
must go higher. Every farmer who
can possibly do SO should hold his cot
ton awhile longer.

The proposition to convert the vast
sed yield Of watermelons into sugar and
molasses commends itself to the melon
farmer, whose annual losses on North
ern shipments are no inconsiderable
tax. It viii be remembered that we
were a long time recognizing the value
of cotton seed for anything. In com-
parison what bonanza must there be

that wasn't by any means the worst.
The apex of Jones' vein was in this

it was a strong vein and the only one

The apex of the vein is the point
where it comes nearest the surface.

Little Jack was quiet until his father
raised his voice, when he broke in:

What is that, Jack?" asked his father.

man put his hand protectingly on

resumed: Il reckon the courts would

But, seriously, Mr.. Walker, let's
settle it on some kind of a basis. What
do you say to leaving it to some one
in the Campo" That's fair" was the
quick reply. Leave it to my wife, but
she don't go with the ground, under

appointed look, he put his hand on the
young miners shoulder, and the tears
stood in his eyes as he said: Ben,

little half acre of dirt, that's a good

with a new idea. I'll make you one
more proposition, and if you don't take
that I'll quit you; lets consolidate"
Walker looked into the frank face of
the young miner a moment and saw
how earnestly anxious he was about it,
and extending his hand said: "All

only in Egypt. The inhabitants of the
districts in which they are found have
little love for them, and the shepherds
are often startled to see them leaping
and dancing in the moonlight of a
bright summer night. Some of these
people think that there is a special vir-
tue in their tails. When one is killed
or found dead, the tail is cut off, dried
and pounded up, when it is given to
any horse that appears to be aiIing. In
ancient times the leaping mouse was
well known, being called mures bipedes
(two-footed mice.) The city of Cyrene
had picture Of one Of them on its
coins.
