LINCOLN TO sCHURZ.

In view of Carl Schurz' return to the
democratic party and his vicious attack
upon the president of the United States
and the policy which under the constitu-
ton and the law the executive is putting
into effect in the Philippines for the BEN
eft of the Filipinos and the protection Of
American honor, it may De well to recall
President Lincoln wrote to the New York
t~urn-coat. 1t was as follows: -

Schurz has spent nearly all his life in
this country trying to stir up trouble for
the government whose protection h
sought when he left Germany for Ger
many's good. He is an Unsafe guide and
his example is vicious. Such men as
he and Bourke Cockhan are political
m~ercenaries, and their support of Bryan.

most dangerous man in American poli-
ties, only serves to prove that the worst

The campaign in Montana this year
does not turn on personal issues. The
best interests Of the wool growers,
cattlemen and farmers demand that the
state and the country shall &C repub-
iican. The same is true of the mining
interests, for though the copper tariff
cuts no figure, the activity of those in
dustries which consume copper is indis-
pensable in the matter of keeping up the
demand for the yellow metal. 1t is be-
yond dispute, therefore, that every inn
portant industr in Montana depends for
continued prosperity upon republican
success. Intelligent voters will refuse
to be swerved from their patriotic duty
by democratic appeals to their passions
and prejudices on personal or local ques-
.tions.
The first duty of every man is to him.
self and his family, next to his state.
The mar who allows demagogues to
allure him from political duty and to in
duce him to abandon principles which
relate to his substantial and permanent
welfare will live to repent his folly in
poverty and idleness.
Once before in the history of Montana
during a period Of general prosperity
they were cajoled into voting for a
change in national policies because Pres
ident Harrison was a cold and unsym-
pathetic man and hadn't distributed the
Offices to suit a few republicans. The
result was four years of Grover Cleve-
land, eight-cent wool, dollar-and-a-halt
sheep, t~hirty-dollar cattle, forty-cent
wheat, inherent copper, three-cent lead
and f1fty-six-cent silver. Silver is moi
much better now, because. both parties
are opposed to it, though it was the de.
mocracy alone that destroyed the gov
eminent market for silver and closed the

brought about In 1893.
It is strange that damocaetic leaders
can SO confidently rely on the wage earn
er's creduhtty as to suggest such a pro
ceedure. 1t will be still more strange II
the producers of the country are so de-
cedved as to give any serious support to
a party that medttates such an assault
upon their means Of livelihood.

THE PHILIPPINES AND III
CONSTITUTION. .ifsl

The democratic party. which numReGssIi
millions of our citizens and has had ga \
place in national politics for so manvs1
years, has ever shown such a pershtent1
and mischievous disposition to placed it
self on the wrong sid of every import
ant subject that it is a pleasure to find
any thing in it's record that can be COM
mended. Thus only praise can be given
to it's alleged devotion to the constitution.
For this devotion may be sc sincere and
so outspoken thai when democrats have
read and studied it there is some hope
THAT they will De ruled by it's precepts.
The unfortunate consideration is that the {,
party is afflicted with such an unbridled
imagination hat it too often assumes
what the constitution says before an ex-
animation of it.
If democrats will take the trouble to
examine the document they would find
the following to be the exact words of
Article ", section 8, clause 2.
THE congress shall nave power to dis
pose of and make all needful Jules and
regulations respecting the territory. or
other property belonging to the United.
States; and nothing in this constitution
shall be SO construed as to prejudice any,
claims of the United States, or of any
particular state" :,
If that extract from the constitution
does not give congress full power to aeylf
islate over the territories. and If congress
lis not distinctly charged hat such legfs-
lation shall not injure the interests of the
states there is no meaning in language!i
In respect to the tariff, it is clear, thatr
the extension of the same schedule over
both the new territory and the original
states. would be a wrong to both. It
would be a wrong to the inhabitants of
the Philippines as too abrupt a change
from existing conditions would only re-
suit in a benefit to a few Adventures
who would reap a harvest from the mass
of THE population. 1t would be. a wrong
to the labordng classes of the United
States for it wou flood the country with
the products of the cheap labor OF the
Orient n produce a worse condition

GENERAL CARR FOR SENATOR.
A Voice From Out of the West Calls
for His Election.

The Press, of Franklin. Macon
county, noting the fact that Gen.
Carr had announced himself can
didate for United States Senator,
pays that gentleman the following
handsome and merited tribute:
..As a private citizen Gen. Carr has
done more than any other man in
North Carolina to promote the States
most material interests. He has
given literally to help the cause of
education, and has done more for
Confederate veterans of the State than
any one else. 1t was only last week
at Raleigh that he proposed to fur
nish the new building at the Soldiers
Home, as soon as it is completed, at
his own expense.
AT the recent Kansas City Ma
tional Democratic convention, Gen.
Julian 5. Carr was not only con-
spicuous and prominent member, but
received the unanimous vote of the
North Carolina delegation and votes
from other States for the vice-presi-
dency.
"Of all the men who have wrought
| we'll for our State it is but simple
justice to say that Gen. Carr has ex-
celled all others. Now that he has
made known his aspirations, we are
frank to say it will only be showing
proper gratitude for the good people
of our Commonwealth to give him
the political position he wants. There
is no honor that the Democratic party
could bestow upon him that would
not be worthilv bestowed"

COULD HAVE SUNK THE NEW YORK.
A Successful Night Attack Upon the
Cruiser by the Holland Submarine
Boat.

NEWPORT, X. L., August 31.-The
big cruiser New York, the flagship OF
the North Atlantic squadron, could
have been sunk tonight as she lay at
anchor in the waters of Narragansett
Bay, from torpedo fired at her by
the submarine boat Holland. Not
only would the New York have suffer
ed but the tug Leyden would have
gone ~ the bottom also.
But it was all practice, a night at
tack, and it was most successful,
proving that the Holland boat is a
valuable part Of the United States
navy.
After dark the torpedo boats Nor,

the Holland it was different matter,
and after she had plunged under the
water she was not seen again until
she was found at her dock when the
Leyden went in.

below by leaving out the side rails.
Sufficient straw or grass hay is used
for covering, and it must be made to
project over the edges of the first
wide shelf so as to turn all water off
the sides of the frame. The dimen-
sions are as follows:
Width. 10 feet.
Length, three fence rails, II feet
each.
Shelves, ? feet apart.
Rails, II inches apart on the hori-
zontal support.
Capacity, about four tons dry hay.
The height can be increased until
inconvenient to put hay on the top
! shelf. 1t would doubtless be cheaper
and better to use stout. dry poles of
greater length than rails, the frame
would be sufficiently strong, and a
! less number of cross frames would be
required. Small rails or poles would
be better to use than large ones, as
they would occupy less space, but the
! frame material must not be green.
/ 1t should be observed that free yenti-
lation is allowed in all directions.
The cost is very small, two ordinary
farm hands can get the material in
the woods and erect it. A permanent
roof of boards could be used to cover
the frame. and in that case, instead oi
using the diagonal braces, posts could
be used and the ends of the horizontal
supports nailed to them. The middle
line of posts could be dispensed with
or made taller than those on side tc
support the comb of the roof, while
the caves would be supported by tht

Curing Peavine Hay.
PRACTICAL METHOD OF SECURING BEST
RESULTS At SMALL COST.
Bulletin Issued by the Arkansas Ex-
pertinent Station Which is of Value
to Farmers-No Difficulty in Curing
the Vines When Directions Here
Given are Followed - OF Especial
Value In Rainy Weather.

The following is from recent pub
lication of the Arkansas Experiment
Station. and is of value to fc",1ers
generally:
Formerly farmers complained CT
the difficulty in curing the pea vines
for hay, but now the manner of cur
ing is better understood and that
complaint is seldom heard There is
no difficulty in curing the vines in the
field when the weather is dry, at the
moving, but frequent rains at that
time make curing very difficult. |
printed in Bulletin 27 description of
a stock frame which had tested with
uLcured vines and it was entirely sue
cessfnl. Every farmer should have
such frame to save his hay when
rains occur at moving time. Follow
ing is description of the frame as it
appeared in Bulletin 27. The cost of
the frame is practically nothing, and
lasts several years:
Constructions: The plan of con-
structlon is a series of open shelves
made of rails or poles placed about
twelve inches apart with their ends
resting on horizontal supports. The
supports are nailed two feet apart to
upright posts with one end securely
in the ground. Strips 1x4 with ends
resting on the ground are nailed dag
onally to the horizontal supports for
braces. They are to prevent the
frame inclining and for supporting
and holding in place the ends of the
horizontal pieces.
The length of the stock frame can
be increased indefinitely by erecting
frames distant from each other the
length of a fence rail, or whatever is
used. These cross frames can be
made on the ground and then set in
place. The sides of the stack must
be perpendicular, since pea vines will
not turn water. To give the top a
proper pitch to turn water. the top
shelf is made narrower than the shelf

SOUTHERN A PRIZE WINNER.
The Enterprise of the Company Re
warded at Paris.

The enterprise of the Southern
Railway is shown in the enormous ex-
pense the system has gone to in order
to advertise the South at the Paris
Exposition. In connection with this.
it is gratifying to know that the
Southern's enterprise has been recog-
nized and rewarded, the grand prizes
having been awarded the Southern.
That the exhibits of Southern prod
ucts which the Southern Railway is
now making at the Paris Exposition
are attractive and typical of the en-
terprise of that progressive system is
fully shown by the awards given.
These include two grand prizes, the
highest award given at the Exposi-
tion, and two silver medals.
The grand prizes were given to the
Southern Railway. one for its exhibit
of Southern products in the United
States Agricultural Department, and
| one for the Forestry Annex, probably
the most unique structure in the
Paris Exposition. The building is oi
the log-cabin style. made of long,
straight. symmetrical yellow pine
logs from along the Southern Rail
way. All OF its material is an adver-
tisement of Southern tim bers. In
side is the office of the Southern Rail
way, the front and sides of which
consist OF eight doric columns o

above the place for the next shelf;
then the rails or poles for it are
placed. The hay is then put on that
floor in the same way as on the first,
and so on with each floor, until the
top is reached, when the cover Of
straw or boards is put on
In removing the hay for feeding it
is taken first from the lower floors
and then from those above. The
cover being the last removed, pro-
tects the hay until all of it has been
fed out. Beginning on one side of
one section, the hay can be drawn out
of the sides of the two first floors and
the rails or poles removed from these
, floors as they become in the way; the
same is done with the remaining ones.
To remove all the hay at once, work
should begin at the top of the stack.
The vines cure entirely in the shade
and retain the flavor, aroma and a
bright green color. all very desirable
qualities. When hay of any kind is
cured by being spread to the hot sun
these desirable qualities are almost
| entirely lost.
The vines can be stacked as soon as
willie if cut in the morning and ex-
posed to the sun they can be stacked
that evening. By stacking the vines
| when wilted no loss of leaves occur
and the very best hay is made. \
very important advantage is gained
by the use of the frame in that hay
can be made independently of the
weather. Cow pea hay is bulky and
much barn room can be saved by cur
ing and storing in the frame than
baling.
By having the pea crop ready to
cut at different times, and by the use
of the stack frame in the event of
rain, pea hay could be grown extern
sively and baled for the market.
To properly cure cow pea hay in
| the sun or open air the moving must
be done after the dew has evaporated
from the vines; then as soon as the
leaves appear to be dying the vines
must be raked in windows, then into
cocks and finally into cover The
best stage to cut COW peas for the
most and best hay with least trouble
in curing and loss of leaves is when
the oldest pods have turned yellow.

belle until she has several rings.

Well, you are welded. and around your

Twine two great joys; for some one calls
you wife.
And the child-lips murmur Mother, 3"
and you smile
After long years of sorrow and heart-strife
Smile up into the eyes that meet your own
Feel the strong, sheltering arms around
you thrown.
And say, My husband" and with love
words while
Away the hours, no longer dark and lone
You feel the clinging of your child; you
feel
His arms about your neck; his kisses steal
Away the sigh which trembles to your
lips
When faithful Memory doth some face re.
From out the fading past! but tears
Are not for your sweet lips-for such sweet
eyes,
What earthly Joy can now your Joy
For, choosing we'll, your love could be but
V.
And yet, fancy that upon your brow
There Is falnt-fOrmed shadow resting now.
The bended head drops lower, till at last
1our weeping face in your pale hands you
bow
And give yourself to grief. Is it not so?
A voice calls to you from the long ago
hand is stretched toward you from the
past
And Joy is lost in bitterness and woe.
You wonder " by the tears your eyes should
fill;
You whisper to your breaking heart: BE
still"'
But the heart means with yearnings un-
Sutficed-
Vague ycarnings which the world can
never fill,
For women love but once; and if denied
That hist, sweet love, they live unSatisfied,
And cling to it as to the cross of Christ
Whereon their bleeding hearts are crucified

And this is life. Heavens mercy ON
us, sweet!

Until the grass is green above the breast
And Gods white daisies grow at head and
