The Jericho Debatin society was

over to the postoffice and made a
speech and started the ball rollin. A
week later the society had It's frst

awhile, and by putin In two votes fur
himself. the squar was duly elected.

Joslyn made a speech OF acceptance
which raised the price OF butter in
Jericho 10 cents pound. After sayln
that he wouldn't exchange places with
the president of the United States he
began with the year 750 j. O.. and the
way he come whIrlin along down to

as he hit Nero, brought applause as he
touched on Columbus, and when he

Not e Party of Lincoln.
fKanSae Cttv Times.


The platform clsims that the republi.
can party under McKinley's guidance is
actuated by the same inspiration and
motives that it drew from the states.
manship and example of Lincoln.
Lincoln waged war to free the slaves;
Mckinley to rivet the shackles upon
human beings. Lincoln insisted on
equality before the law of every man
under the flag. Mckinley authorizes
slavery and polygamy IN the Sulus, i'm
poses discriminating and onerous tax
upon Porto Ricans without their con-
sent and carries on war of criminal
aggression against the inhabitants OF
Asiatic islands to force upon them q
government they do not want and to
deprive them of the right of governing
themselves.
All parallels between Lincoln and
Mckinley in which the latter is likened
to the former, as far as his sdminiatra-
ton acts go, is proclamation, which
nearly approaches sacrilege. The re-
publican party of today has nothing
left of the party that triumphed under
Lincoln except the name.

Seed Potatoes.

The Consular Report for January,
1900, contains the following Interesting
note from Consul Hughes, Coburg: IA
simple method of preveneing rot and
other diseased conditions of winter seed
potatoes is in use BY the peasants of
Thuringla. Those potatoes that rot
easily in the cellar in winter are made
better able to resist diseased conditions
and cold by being laid in sunny place
as far apart from each other as possible,
They areturned over morning and night
until they are thoroughly green, and
are then placed In the cellar for the
winter. Potatoes treated in this man
ner do not rot and can Withstand
great amount of cold weather without
freezing. Early potatoes thus treated
do not sprout in the cellar, and 80 re.
tain their full strength. In February,
the potatoes are taken from the cellar
and put in partially warmed room
until planting time. When planted,
they will sprout stronger and quicker
than potatoes not so treated, and the
crop will be larger and better"

Changes Brought IN Four Years.

-Four years ago we had q declaration
of independence-it is now an evan.
escent dream of youth. We had a con-
stitution-it is curious bit of yellow
paper. We had trsdltions-we have
the Philippines. We had republic
we have almost thrown off such swad-
ding clothes for the glittering gar
ments of empire. We declared thai
governments derive their just power
from the consent of the governed
know better now. We held taxation
without representation to be tyranny
we have revised our governmental die
tionary. The farewell address of Wash
ington was reverenced then-it is old
and musty now. We had repudlated
slayery-we now embrace it. We had
denounced wholesale bigamy-we have
in our Sulu treaty, formed coalition
with 1t now.
Oh, what queer, fantastic fancie
emanate from youth-so foolishly
poetic like the poetry of Ossian! Well
we have let that portion of our exist
ence-now for a broader field, NOR,
dignified plane. "Let the dead pas
bury its dead.' Hip, hip, hurrah TO

The Nations Dead.

Some sleep beneath southern sun;
Some meath northern sky;
Some dreamless rest In oceans breast;
Some in far countries lie.
But wheresoe'er our..l ..lleroes sleep
Within our hearts they live,
And bloom Of spring today we bring
And to their men,'rie give.
Some fought their fight and gained their res
A century ago;
Their crumblng bones, unmarked by stones
Their names we do not know.
But though unknown to us their names,
We hold their mem'ries dear.
And we today our homage pay,
And drop the silent tear.
Some fought their fight but yesterday;
Some back in sixty-one.
Itmatters not where'er they fought;
Their fighting now is done.
When Freedoms cause was jeopardized
And she for succor cried,
They did not say their country nay.
But nobly fought-and died
So now we bring our garlands fair
To lay on each dear grave.
And plant With love, each breast above,
The flag that "long shall wave,'
We bow the head above the dead
Whose deeds will ever live,
And bloom of spring today we bring
And to their mem'ries give.

The Banks TAKE the Cake.

Under the bill, now law, If an Or
dinary man buys government bond
he is out the use of his money and
draws interest on the bond; but under
this law, if national bank buys the
same bond, it can deposit the bond, get
tie face value of the bond in bank
notes, thus getting its money back, and
then it can draw interest on the bond
besides. The ordinary man can eat
his cake or keep it; the bank can eat
Its cake and keep lit, too.
And why? Because the republican
party is putting the state above the
man; because the republican party is
legislating in the interests of aggre
gated wealth and neglecting the rights
of the great majority of the people.
Republicans, you never heard q man

The principles of Jefferson are the
definitions and sxioms of free society.
And yet they are denied and cvaded
with no small show of success. One
dashingly calls them "gllttering gener-
alities;" another bluntly calls them
"self-evldent iies.' Others insiduously
argue that they apply to superior
races' These expressions, differing in
forms, are identified in object and
effect. in supplauting the principles of
free government and restoring those of
class, caste, and legitimacy. They
would delight convocation ofcrowned
heads, plotting against the people.
They are the van guard, the miners and
sappers of returning despotism. We
must repulse,them or they will subju-
gate US. This is world of compen-
sation, and he who would be no slave
must consent,to have no slave. Those
who deny freedom to others, deserve it
not themselves, and under a just God
cannot long retain it.-From a letter
by Abraham Lincoln, April 6, 1859.

While the Iowa local newspapers are
filled with items showing the exchange
of comparatively unimproved farms at
constantly higher prices, the eastern
local newspapers are telling quite diff
ferent stories concerning agricultural
values. For example, near Bethlehem,
Conn, last week farm of sixty acres,
with good buildings, sold at auction for
$1,000, price which would not replace
the barns. Another farm of twenty
acres in the same town, bought twenty
years ago for 1000 was sold at auction
for $85. The omnivorous west, as Mr..
Reese called 1t, is supreme in sgricul-
ture now, and in the next generation 1t
will be supreme in manufacture
