kindly rendered TO the ladies. Refresh
ments were served in a room at the end
of the hail, which had been handsomely
and appropriately decorated for the occa-
sion. The ladies who so energetically and
successfully manage everything connected

The Crime Of 1873.

1t is only claimed now by anti
Democrats that we are Just recover
ing from a frightful depression
which eliminated i'll 1896. But
even if this recovery will be all that
is claimed or pretended the original
evils still persist in all their magni-
tude and venomosity. The silver
metal is unrestored; the currency is
contracted by all the silver it has
been despoiled Of, since and includ-
ing 1873; lost work, wages, &C.,
can never be restored. The gold
monopoly, the banks consolida-
ton, the money trust which made
the act of 1873 and by which the
present plague of trusts blights the
land is still the dictator in all our
affairs; public and private; and if
there is a temporary prosperity any
where it is not among the people,
but the self-preferred creators of the
situation and is as insecure even to
its holders as it is Fictitious, like
the millions and billions made out
Of nothing by capitalizing a combine
overvalued at $40, ,ooo, 900 to $780,
900, 900.

fact, a bubble itself: and the entire

THEN AND NOW.

The harvest is past, the summer
is not quite ended, at least the
warm weather is still with us. But T,
the sound of the steam thresher is
abroad in the land. Some of us
can remember when the old thresh-
ing machine we knew ANYTHING
about was the poverty club, the
music of which could be heard far
and near from the time harvest was
gathered until late the following
winter.
The first threshing machine that
1 knew anything about was brought
into the neighborhood where I
lived by couple of strangers,
about sixty-fve years ago. They
did TIP the threshing in a hurry for
the farmers. 1t was regarded as a
very dangerous thing for women
and children to be about. l was
only allowed to view il from a dis
tance. For the neighboring farm
ers formed syndicate and bought
the concern, and for a time had a
monopoly of the threshing.
Some may be under the impress
sion that syndicates and monopo-
lies are a modern invention, but
such is not the case; they are nearly
as old as history. Most Of your
readers can remember hearing or
reading of one Alexander, who at
tempted to monopolize the world,
and thought he had done so. If
he were living now, he would out
build Vanderbilt and outrock Rock
efeller.
The threshing monopoly was of
short duration. Soon almost every
farmer had a machine standing in
his barn. The increase in the num-
Der Of machines and the various I'M
provements took the wind out
of the monopolistic sails. The
steamers are at present the cham
pion threshers, but they are too nu-
merous to form monopoly.
The difference in our mode Of
threshing then and now, is not the
only thing in which great changes
have taken place. When l was a
boy, grain was always cut by hand,
the grain cradle. or what has some
times been styled the Armstrong
reaper. There was few old men
who did not take kindly to new
fashions, that still cut some of their
grain with the sickle. The changes
that have taken place between then
and now, have come about gradu-
ally. Had they come suddenly,
they would almost have taken Our
breath. If the old man bending
over his sickle, had seen a self
binder coming into his field, i,
would not have been necessary to
tell him to get out of the way. He
would very hastily have put at least
one fence between him and that
huge monster.
Harvesting has been made much
easier by the introduction of ma.
chinery. but it has lost some of the
charm Of ye olden time.
Then it was a very common
thing to see from three to six mer
with cradles cutting down the grain
and goodly number of boys and
girls following with rakes, rakine
up and binding the sheaves ready
for shocking.
Racing was then in order, to SEE
which could rake ard bind the
sheaf the quickest, the boys not un
frequently coming in second best.
A stout, healthy girl, with plenty
Of bone and muscle, was then re
garded as prize worth looking af
ter. But things have changed
The large girl is rather at dis
count now, as she cam OF play th
organ or piano, or engage in an,
other fashionable frivolty, bette
than her smaller sister or neighbor

The price OF beet is steadily ad-

it will go still higher. Purchasers of
porter house, or surloin steak, have
to pay ISc per pound, round steak,
I6c., rib roasts, Isc., veal steak,
2oc., veal chops, I5c., and ham,
sliced, IS and zoe. There is an
old fable, which says, the COW
jumped over the moon," and these
prices lead us to believe that the
bovine will attempt to go over the
earth's satellite the second time.
