Another Warning.

Nothing is stronger than public
opinion. The press often creates,
Oftener directs public opinion. But
if the press be not strong enough
to overcome the inertia, the indif-
ference of the public and direct
public opinion, who then shall! act !?
We care not, if it but DO that ac-
ton is TAKEN The glory may al:
10 another's. The True Democrats
motto is "Ich dicn," and when our
efforts fail, let another try.
IN this instance, we refer to our
warnings to, our pleadinss with the
Board Of Health to institute such
means aS will stay the ravagcs Of
scarlatina. Despite our prateSts,
nothing has been done, which
shows, We must admit that the pub
lie has not yet been fully aroused,
Or it would arise, IN might, and
demand TINT something be done.
Pray, then, what will arouse the
public ? Will not tho aM. ctions Of
little children, tho cry of innnce., CO
be heardi One child dead, another
with its hearing impaired, another
suffering loss of voice, are not these
results sufficiently serious to alarm
the public to make every effort to
stay the disease ore otEerlittle ones
suffer !! Yes, u thansand tines,
yes.
ScarlatinR, or rather scarlet fever
for the former Is but the name for
a mild typo of the latter disease,
is far more serious than the QFdi-
nary diseases of childhood, ranking
withdinhtherlaia mortality,and now
in some respects, worse, since tho
discovery of antl.taTIne asaspeciac
for diptheria, Its presence here
is Of grave import to every parent,
and how the matter can be treated
with such GalmnsSs when a word
about yellow fever or small pox
arouseS like 2 cry to arms. Shall
We do less for our helpless little
ones I?
And what can be done In addition
to isolation, nursing and the skilled
care of physicians for the illi Moth,
ing more that wp know of, except
the points previously suggested,
Tagging of houses so tho public
may be correctly informed as to
where the disease exists is one pre-

The Industrial Convention.

The Southern Industrial Con.
yentiOn which will meet in New
Orleans in December, is one of the
most important meetings that has
taken place in the South in recent
years. There arc MANY questions
of industrial development which
ought to be considered and analysed
by the thoughtful men of the South
to the end that the great opportuni~
ties now pressing upon us may be
fully utilized. Concert Of action,
which can only be brought about by
unanimity of opinion and o thorough
appreciation upon the part of all
the possibilities by which we are
confronted, can bring about the
most 4parvelous changes in the con-
dictiOn of our section, and to this
end every true friend Of Southern
progress should earnestly strive.
In the SOnth We allow politics to
absorb too much of our energy and
interest to the exclusion of more
material concerns, and the time
has arrived when our people sEOu d
understand that one half Of the en-
ergy they exert in political matters,
il expended in the direction of ma.
Aerial improvements would show
vastly better results, OF course,
We dO not desire to dlspaage the
importance of our beople keeping
alive always to the political ques.
lions by which they are confronted,
for that is the duty of the patriot
and the citizen: what we mean that
after doing this We should not per-
nit cur interest to die ont until the
next election comes around. After
the elections are over let us then
devote the same energy and the
same intelligent zeal to the canse
of material improvement and the
development of our resources and
we shall then soon see vast INF
provement in our condition. If
the Southern Industrial Convention

business when intelligently pur-
sued. There is more ptofit in farm
ing in the Lewiston valley than in
other sections of the country, be-
cause a good yield can be regularly
grown and harvested at smaller
cost than in any other section of
Tire United States that is devoted
to wheat as general crop. This
uniform yield is the result, how.
ever, good farming and the obser.
vance Of peculiar conditions of soil
and climate.
The disasters that have attended
the wheat farmers have, on the
other hand, been due generally to
the disregard Of local conditions.
In some instances very large yields
and large profits have been gained
from haphazard methods. The
same conditions are observable in
all branches of business. Often
reckless deals return great profits;
but only conservative methods are
safe.
Stimulated by success the farmer
is often impelled to do poor work
and to sow out of season, and then
invite disaster. The only safe bus.
mess method is the one that pro-
duces regular crops, even under
unfavorable conditions.
The farmer who becomes excited
and neglects his horses, his cows,
his hogs, his chickens, his hay, his
fruit and his vegetables for exclu.
sive wheat culture is in danger of
loss. The farmer, as other bust
ness men, should avoid hazardous
investments, such as exclusive
crops planted as is necessary, per-
force Of conditions, in badly titled
grounds, and out Of season. The
wise farmer will not be di-
verted from his safe method OF crop
diversion by the excitement caused

Seeing Things.

The stock in trade Of democratic
argument is "pity the woes of the
poor farmer" In the whole cate.
CORY of American Industries MOTH
ing is left to illustrate a tale of
woe but the low price of wheat and
the democratic bunco steerer is
harping upon that alone, hoping
to delude the farmers OF the coun.
try. The farmer is asked to ig.
more the fact that flax and corn,
and oats and hay are a good price
and easily marketed; that cattle
and hogs and sheep are at top
notch prices and the farmer is
making money raising and selling
them. He is asked to ignore the
fact that money is easier and mar.
kets better. He must close his
eyes to this aud open them only to
VISIONS OF the trust octopus.
But the farmers of the country
are seeing things, not bugaboos,
but realities. There is no depress.
ion in the country as there was in
1896. If wheat happens to be
low. fax is not, but ON the other
hand the highest price ever known.
Cattle are at a high price. and
hogs, sheep. oats and hay were
never in letter demand or more
easily marketed. The condition
that confronts the farmer is better
than the theory which the spell
binder and the space writer ad.
vance to brighten him. "a bird
In hand in hand is worth two in

is very applicable to present con.

characters as these is. dog-man. There is.
no doubt. many characters running at large
