LOST TRACK OF FAMILY.
Gen. Wheeler's Misfortune When He
First Went to Congress.

Gen. Wheeler's Misfortune When He
First Went to Congress.
Once during his memorable life Gen.
eral Joe Wheeler, now commander of
the department of the lakes, with
headquarters in Chicago, found him
self without a local habitation or a
family, although he had both a few
hours earlier in the day. When he
was first elected to congress he lodged
in fashionable section of Washing
ton, but in the course Of few days
Mrs. Wheeler became dissatisfied and
one evening when her husband re-
turned from congress, she said: "Fa-
Their, do not like this place at all and
really think we had better move, IL
you don't object" Certainly not,
mother" returned the eyer-gallant
general; "just please yourself-any-
thing suits me-" Nothing more was
said on the subject, but couple of
days later on seeking the society of
his family after the official duties Of
the day were over the congressman
found the apartment deserted and on
inquiry that his family had moved
during the day. No one knew where
they had gone. Mrs. Wheeler had
merely neglected to inform her hus-
band that they were to move that day
and where the new residence was. He
went to various hotels, but didn't find
them, so. finally spent the night at
once, and next day his colleagues were
highly diverted and interested at the
engaging candor with which the great
little man related how he had lost his
family and asked their advice as to
where they supposed he could find
them. In the course of the day one
of the children came to the capitol to
find out why their father hadn't been
home the night before, and then the
omission of letting him know the Sc
cret of where they had moved was
rectified, and he went gayly to the new
quarters, where, with Mrs. Wheeler, ne
had hearty laugh over their tempo
rary separation.

These figures are very interesting.
Note the high prices paid for Ohio WOOL
during the Republican administration
of President Harrison from 1890 to
1893.
Then note the decline of 10 to IL
cents per pound between 1898 and 1897
January prices during the free trade
administration OF Grover Cleveland.
Note once more the sharp advance
in wool values in 1898 to 1900. 1t is,
needless to say that this was under q
protective tariff and Republican adj
misunderstanding Mckinley pros
perity.
Western farmers will see to 1t that
the high price of wool is maintained
for another four years by voting for
Mckinley and electing only Republican
congressman.
Every farmer should cut this out and
paste 1t up by his Preside for reference
in the first few days of November.

164S. and has 1870 inhabitants. The

Iowa School Libraries.

A new law in Iowa provides that ev-
cry school district must annually set
aside from to 10 cents for every child
of school age, the money to go for the
purchase of books for the school lib
rary. During the school year the
books are to be kept in the school
room, but in vacation time they will
be kept for the use of the pupils in
some private house or store selected
by the board. The books to be pur-
chased are limited to list which the
state board OF education is to make
out. Already most OF the Iowa cities
have ayailed themselves of the law
permitting school directors to spend
s25 a year on books.-Pathfinder.

aUnited States government report
for 1899 not yet published.
In the history of industrial and eco
nomic conditions no more wonderful
result of the benefit of protection can
be shown.
Prosperity for the Farmers.
And yet the candidate nominated by
the Populists by the Democrats and by
the Silver Republicans voted in 1894
for the Wilson tariff law with its free
wool clause. and today stands where
he stood then, in favor of free wool.
Is not this reason enough for bringing
to notice at this time the facts and
figures relating to American Tariffs
and American Sheep" II ever time
was when these eloquent statistics
should be made known to the people
of the United States, this is the
time.
Instances without number could be
cited bearing out this marvellous pros
perity of the sheep raisers. Not long
ago. the Fairfield Qowa) Register
printed an anecdote that goes straight
to the point Of illustrating the great
increase that has taken place in the
productive value and market value Of
sheep. II appears that last fall, in
making a sale of bunch OF sheep at

William Jennings Bryan.
The wool growers of the United
States know what to expect II William
Jennings Bryan is by any chance elect
ed to the presidency. He has nailed
his colors plainly to the masthead. he
who runs may read. There is no quail
ification whatever in his declaration
He is for free wool now and all the
time.
Progress and Prosperity.
The condition of the sheep is an ac-
curate barometer of the progress and
prosperity of the entire country. Tell
me how stands your sheep in respect
to value and productiveness, saio
Congressman Grosvenor of Ohio, and
| will tell you how the country stands
in the same respect.
At the time of the election OF Presi-
dent Mckinley in 1896 there were IN
the United States 36,S1S,643 sheep,
which at an average of $1.S2 per head
were worth $67, O2O,942. Four years OF
protection under the Dingley law has
resulted in an increase of the Hooks
to 63.121,SS1, which at an average value
of $3.50 has brought the value to $z4o'-
1885.
Four Years of Protection Has
NEARLY DOUBLED THE FLOCKS,
MORE THAN DOUBLED THE
AVERAGE PRICE PER HEAD.
NEARLY QUADRUPLED THE
VALUE OF ALL SHEEP.
1t is for the sheep owners to decide by
their votes whether they want return
of the free trade days under the Will
son law or a continuance of prosperity
under the Dingley law. 1t is for them
to say whether they want to be PAID
for their wool and their mutton IN 40
cent dollars or in dollars worth l00
cents each.
If they want free wool, let them vote
for the advocate of free wool, william
Jennings Bryan. If they want protec-
ton and prosperity, let them vote 1or
President William Mckinley. If they
want to be paid in Ascent dollars. let
them vote for Mr. Bryan; If they wish
to be paid in 1OO-cent dollars, as good
as anybody's money on earth, let them
vote for Mr.. Mckinley.
There is no middle course. 1t is LOT
the sheep raisers, great and small TO
vote decisively on this issue.
Some Prosperity Figures.
There is world of material Tor
study and reflection among the produc-
ing classes in the study of the statistics
of sheep raising in the United States
in the last twenty-five years. Inc
government reports, which cannot be
questioned by anybody, show this state
of affairs for the years since 1878:

quiet and orderly in this region tonight.
President MITCHELL Of the United Mine
Workers of America, tonight issued q
statement giving his views on the CALI
ing out of the troops at Shenandoah and
the killing of member of a mob by the
deputies at Shenandoah yesterday. The
statement is as follows:
From information l have received
from those who have Investigated the
situation, 1t appears that the shooting
on the part of the sheriff and his depu-
ties was entirely uncalled for, inasmuch
as the strikers had not injured a single
member Of the sheriff's posse, and the
circumstances forcibly illustrate the
ruthless disregard the sheriff and his
deputies have for the lives of persons
whom 1t was their place to put under
arrest, if they had violated any Of the
laws of the state of Pennsylvania.
''The governor, in calling out the state
troops has, in my judgment, acted in
considerably and without a thorough
investigation. l am confident that the
miners who are on strike are fully i'm
pressed with the necessity Of observing
the law and conducting themselves in
peaceful manner at all times''
Father Phillips, of st. Gabriels Cath
edral. who has worked diligently for
strike, tonight issued a statement in
which he comes out fatty on the side
of the strikers. He said:
'If the executive officials of the big
coal carrying companies have been cor
rectly quoted by today's papers, arbi-
tration is no longer means to the end
desired by the general public, namely,
a discontinuance of the conflict between
labor and capital. There is now no al
tentative but fight to the finish be-
tween organized labor and organized
capital. Honest efforts for peace have
been throttled and since arbitration and
justice and mercy will not be heard the
operator must either arrogate to himself
the title Of coal king and sway his
scepter over unwilling subjects, or the
miners must meet the issue by renewing
efforts to deplete the markets by the
complete prevention of production

1t is reported at strike headquarters
that one of the next places to be occu-
pied by the soldiers is McAdoo, half a
dozen miles from Hazleton, but in
Schuylkill county. The soldiers could
be stationed here without further or
ders from the governor The strikers
are very strong here and the operators
want to break their organization
If it was only necessary to preserve
peace in Shenandoah, a thousand or
less troops would have been sufficient.
The calling of 5000 troops means that
that city is to be used as base of oper-
ations for large territory.

pointed out, which they could-and I
can speak for hundreds Of teachers when
say that they would gladly do So
hand to the heads of their schools, it
would practically mean readjustment
of the entire system of study. This
may be better understood when it IL
realized that the entire system of study
during school hours in many of the
schools is so arranged as to allow for
some of the work to be done by the
pupils at home. Let this taken-for-
granted home study be stopped and a
change would at once have to be made.
The studies at school cannot be increas-
ed in number, for already there are too
many. The school hours cannot be
heightened because the tide has set in
to shorten them. Hence some studies
would have to be thrown out, if home
study was eliminated. And this is the
result desired"

threw several aside with merely glance
at their contents.

though you'll consider me overpa rticu-
Var. Those letters which ! have thrown

present employed. One man has even
gone, so far. as to inclose 10 his letter a
stamped envelope of the firm for his
private reply. ! have my business paper,
