MORE MISSION WORK FOR Mr.. SEIZURE.


The Hon. Carl Schurz and those who like
him. argue that Colonel Bryan's election will
involve no possible shock TO National credit or
business confidence will find 10 countenance
for their fantastic logic in the sober and prac
teal addresses which marked the opening yes
ferday at Richmond of the annual convention
of the American Bankers Association. Mr.
Schmz infused an unexpected element Of humOr
into the National campaign some time ago by
maintaining that the country had nothing to
Gear from the election of Free Silver Coinage
President since q Republican hOldover Congress
stood ready TO respond TO the appeal of the
President-elect himself, and of the party which
elected him, to "tie his hands" by additional
Sound money" legislation. Later Mr.. SchurZ
WIS brought TO the point of conceding that per
haps the general consent in Congress neces-
sary TO the hand tying process could not be
negotiated, because of the unwillingness of Colo
mel Bryan and the other radical free silver
leaders 10 submit to good behavior bonds. Yet
he has kept insisting as paradoxicay as ever
that the financial honor Of the United States
could suffer no visible tarnish from the triumph
OF a political party which in two successive
platforms has proclaimed its belief in a de-
based and dishonest currency. Only last Fri
day night at Cooper Union he declared that in
his view the voters Of the country might freely
act upon the question of Imperialism THAT is,
elect Bryan and Stevenson without serious
peril 10 our standard Of value"
Mr. Schurz's judgment on this point fails TO

Irish Potatoes.

Perhaps no plant appreciates good
rich soil nor pays for it better than
the "Irish," or common potato, says q
writer in the Farmers Advocate
Then take the best soil and make it as
rich as you can, if it is not already so
Care should be taken in selection oil
seed; some claim that the crown OF
seed.end eyes are the best. Other.
say the stem only should be planted
l think can explain this difference
of opinion, although l have but little
experience in raising them. The eyes
on the seed end are more numerous
than on the stem end, and when cut
off and put two pieces in the hill, will
produce several stalks to the hill
while the stem end, taking two with
one eye each. the stalks will be less in
number to the hill. 1 know hill oil
potatoes with few stalks gives larger
potato. 1 would say where there are
several stalks to the hill, pull out the
weaker ones. az you would pull weeds
out of the hill. A great secret in pc.
tato yields is not to have too many
eyes in one piece. Cut large potatoes
for seed, and plant deep in the soil
When potatoes are planted in dry
rich soil, it is best to cultivate without
killing, which allows the rainfall to
settle about the roots and insures also
larger, better and more potatoes than
when chilled up" which certainly
turns the water away.

Fear in High Places.
Boston Transcript.

A famous steeple climber was asked
If he ever felt fear in his business.
"Of course feel fear at times" he
answered. "Fear is common to all
mankind. Not to feel fear is not
courage. To overcome fear is the
true quality of courage. I divide the
nerve force of man into two parts
the impelling force and the restrain
ing force-the same impelling force
that causes body of recruits at first
to run under fire and the restraining
force that causes them to overcome for

TELEGRAMS GET TO MANILA.
They Travel Thrse-Fifths Of the Distance
Around the World
Ainslee's Magazin

To pay practically $2j for brief
ten word message to the Philippines
may seem rXtravagant. but when one
reflects that it travels thrce-ffths of
the distance around the globe in COM
plotting the journey, passing under the
direction Of half a dozen companies
the cost seems far from exOrbitant.
The ordinary course of such a mes
sage would be from New York to Cape
Breton, n. S., thence to Hearts Con-
tent, n. F., where it dives under the
Atlantic, to reappear on the coast OF
Ireland. From here it is forwarded to
London, which is the great center and
clearing house for the cable business
OF the whole world. From London
the message will be forwarded either
across the English channel and over
land to Marseilles or by the Eastern
Telegraph Company's line around the
Spanish peninsular, stopping at Lis
bon. Through the Mediterranean the
route leads to Alexandria, across
Egypt by land, down the Red Sea to
Alden, through the Arabian Sea to
Bombay, over India by land, across
the Bay Bay of Bengal to Singapore,
along the coast to Hongkong and
across the China sea to Manila. Not.
outstanding the many hands and
many lands through which it passes,
the message is forwarded with reason
able promptness, with perfect secrecy
and all the way in English.
The increase in the use of the tele-
graph for business purposes has been
accompanied by steady reduction in
the cost of messages. When the first
Atlantic cable was laid the price OF a
twenty-word message between London
and New York was 500, or S. per
word. Now the commercial rate be.
tween the two cities is % cents per
word. To telegraph ten words from
Chicago to New York in 1866 cost
$2.O5. Now it costs 40 cents. Tele-
graphing to distant parts of the world
is still an expensive business. The
rate per word for a message from San
Francisco to N. H., for example is
$2.S7. The New York to Manila rate
is $2.45. The charge is not always in
ratio to the distance. The rate from
New York to some South American or
West Indian port is nearly 50 per
word, but in reaching these points the
messages travel twice across the At.
lantic.
