JOHN,s LETTER.

Saturday, the sd, West Minot Grange
was the guest Of East Hebron Grange.
Tue question up for discussion Was the
Trust. Mlnot opposed, Hebron. sus-
tanned. We were not there, and cannot
report the result. Doubtless the Trust
remains about the same as before the
discussion, and all previous discussions
everywhere. Is II legitimate growth,
or Is Il n species OF fungus TO sap the
LIE Of the people? IL legitimate, what
can be done about IL but TO keep IL so?
II II Il an abnormal growth there ought
20 be thinking material enough under
the .sgilded dome" TO hatch out scheme
to make IL wither like Jonsh's gourd,
and about as quickly. However, Il
would amount TO nothing, As the acts Of
congress agsinst such would be snnulled
as the Law against the canteen IL an
nulled. II Is extremely hard to bring big
scoundrels to Judgment. IL you would
feel the bolts Of justice and Of judgment
make use Of postage stamp that has
once been licked, or spear sucker In
close time.
NeiRhbor Eliza has been made happy
by all sorts of useful Christmas gifts

might be called organized charity. II Ia

And now they are smiling because
Die-elock Cy got up one moonlight mid
night, or half-past midnight, and MIXED
the old COW. That Is all right and
scriptural: A merciful man considereth
the life Of his beast, and the comfort Of
the old COW. We wouldn't make prsc-
tice, however, Cy, OF getting up At mid
night for that express purpose. The
hour and minute hand got mixed,
that's why. Things win get mixed
sometimes, you know, and much worse
than that, and with worse result than
an hours loss Of sleep. JOHN.

OF SOUTH PARIS, WINNER OF THE
QUAKER RANGE CONTEST.

We take pleasure 10 presenting 10 the
readers OF the Democrat this week the
picture of Young lady In whom they
have recently become interested: Mas
Blanche G. Dean Of South Paris, whose
popularity and hustle have won her the
fiffy dollar Grand Quaker Range offered
by the Democrat. Miss Dean asks the
Democrat TO prepare letter OF thanks
to the friends who have so generously
aided her. We know Of nothing that
will answer the purpose better than the
reQuest that Miss Dean sends 70 as, 10
which she says:
'srhere are so many kind friends who
have helped me during the contest that
nnd IL will be absolutely impossible TO
thank them all personally, therefore l
desire to extend my thanks through the
Democrat. Nay I trespsss upon your
good nature by asking you to write
something that you think would serve
the purpose? The people have been so
very generous with me that would like
TO thank them all a. graciously ~ pos
sible. BLANCHE q. DEAN"
