WINNING OVER AN AUDIENCE
A story Of the Presidential Campaign
In 1896.

A story OF the Presidential Campaign
A clever bit of campaign repartee is
accredited to Lee Fairchild, the Cali
fornia orator, who leaped into nation
al repute in 1896. He was sent into a
Southern state to advocate the gold
standard. At a certain place he was
informed by the committee that the
"rally" would begin and end about the
same time. and that not since 1888
had any republican speaker been per-
mitted to finish speech there.
Upon learning that the speakers, as
O rule, had been able to get out OF
town and fill their next appointments,
Fairchild determined to make the at
tempt as billed. He advised the chair
man to have no music, and to intro
duce him by saying to the audience:
"You are the people and here is the
speaker.'' The chairman followed in
structiors a little too literally. He
simply pointed at the audience and then
at the speaker. and disappeared behind
the scenes.
Fairchild began his speech at once
with one Of his famous stories. The
audience was separated, the colored
folk all being in the gallery. and only
white people below. In about five
minutes the speaker made pointed
thrust at the opponent party. when an
organized body of young men in the
center Of the thsater shouted in con-
cert, ''Ratsl"
Fairchild paused for moment. and
then, waving his hand at the gallery,
said: Waiter, come down and take
the Chinamen's oTders" The effecI
was electrical. The speaker, in relar.
ing the incident to the writer, said
'You should have seen that black hill

A PRIMITIVE FOLK.
some Queer Ways of the slow-7oing
Inhabitants Of the Georgia
MOunta

If these primitive folk cannot step to
the telephone and by supernatural
fiat ''order" whatever may be desired.
they can step into the forest and find
or fashion some rude substitute.
Though in truth the handmade prod
uct is not a substitute, but an archie
type.) Is the lamp chimney lacking?
The mountain potteries are still maxi
ing fiambeaux. lamps Of almost classic
pattern in which grease is burned with
floating wick. Is the sawmill re-
mote? In the high mountains where
streams are small and mills imprac-
ticable the wbipsaw is brought into
use, and two men will get out 300 or 400
feet of boards from the logs a day.
Handmills for grinding can still be
constructed by well-brought-up noun
tain men, and in some places they have
not yet lost the tradition of the fash
ioning of the old English crossbow!
And who does not have O. feeling akin
to reverence in the presence of hand
loom? When. a mountain maid speaks
of her wheel she does not refer to
bicycle, but to the spinningwhee of
our ancestors, her use of which here
in our mountains calls to mind the sud-
den and entire disappearance OF cloth
making from the list of household in
dustries. Not single member of the
Sorosis could card. spin, dye or weave.
Their mothers for the most part had
forgotten these arts, yet their grand
mothers. and their foremothers for a
hundred generations, have been spin
ners. Spinning, in fact, has helped to
form the character of our race. and it
is pleasant to find that here in APP
palachian America it still contributes
to the health and grace and skill of
womankind.-William Goodell Frost, in

was sent for by the king of Poland to
sing at court, but feeling disinclined
Abel evaded going and sent an ex-

by the king, who had heard of his in

he was placed in chair in the middle
of the spacious hail. and then drawn
up to a considerable height. the king
and his attendants appearing in the
gallery opposite him. Just at that
moment some bears were let into the

SINCERITY.

Oh. worker. whatever your fortune,
Wherever your lot be cast.
Look first that your efforts be honest,
And men will accept you, at last
The world may be heartless and stupid.
And its judgment Is often severe,
But sooner or later its favor
Goes out to him who is sincere.
The preacher may preach fine sermons
The poet write lofty lays,
But what IL the preacher travel
Along the forbidden ways?
And what II the gifted poet
Who tells US that virtue is sweet
Bring shame to the mother who bore hin
And the father who guided his feet?
The preacher OF fiowery sermons,
Who Is eloquent only for pay,
May charm with his flowing phrases,
But ne never scares satan away.
And the poet VINO sings Of the lover
Must die In the dust on the shelf.
No matter how lofty his measures,
If he be not lover himself.
