Is 10 merely the fact Of keeping
in the public mind? Is its basis the
saying or doing something to keep
ones self in evidence? If the latter,
then Elias Howe ought to be one of
the most famous men the world
has ever produced; for no civilized
person is ever without present re-
minders of his genius. From head
to foot, one is always covered with
them. He invented the sewing ma
chine, and wherever shoes, clothing
or hats are worn, there are to be
found the evidences of his contri-
button to human progress. Every
stitch that is machine-made is a
witness in his behalf. 1t is worthy
of remark, by the way, that when
Howe invented the sewing machine
the people refused to have anything
to do with it. Tailors and dress
makers declared it would ruin their
business and reduce worthy work
ing people to starvation. Being a
labor-saving machine they believed
it would deprive many honest Ia
borers of their means of support.
Nevertheless, thousands of workers
are earning their living by the ma
chine needle today, where tens for
merly gained a livelihood with the
hand needle. So far from proving
an evil thing, the sewing machine
has proved one of the greatest con-
veniences and no modern house
hold is considered complete with
out one.
Can fame be smothered between
the leaves of a volume? In the cy-
clopoedias of American biography
Elias Howe is given full credit for
his invention and love for country
for he was soldier as well as an
inventor. But how many persons
ever heard of him? How many of
those who earn living at the sew
ing machine know the name of the
man who invented it? 1t is safe to
say that the percentage is very
low. Still Elias Howe was not sep
arated from the present generation
by a long vista of years. When he
was born the present century was
well advanced, and he died subse-
quent TO the war between the states.
He was, indeed, contemporary with
the inventor of the electric tele-
graph and some of the statesmen
and soldiers whose names havs
gone into the Temple of Fame.
Not one of them did more than he
to improve domestic conditions,
tighten labor and add to the sum
of human cOntentment.
Elias Howe was a genius. His
invention was one of the greatest
and most beneficial of the century.
Still he is not famous, for the rea-
son that he lacked four votes in the
senate of judges.
What a narrow margin there is
between fame and obscurity.

The following telegram has not
been sent out from Republican head
quarters but it might be sent and il
would be closer to the truth than
many of the cock and bull stories of
industrial enterprises which will not
start in case of Bryan's election:
Wide spread CONSERVATION among
the leading corporate thieves of the
country is being caused by the
threatened election of w. ]. Bryan.
1t is an absolute certainty that IN
case he is elected many of the plans
at present on foot will have to be
abandoned. The Armor plate trust
Is fearfulthat it will not be able to
charge the U. S. more than six hun.
dred dollars a ton as it has been do.

selling the same plate to the Russian
government for Sass a ton.
The officials in Cuba VINO have
been amassing millions at the
expense of the Cubans will be re-
duced to beggary in the event of the
election of Bryan.
Brother Abner will be prevented
from taking many of the fat con
tracts which will be his in case Mr..
Bryan be defeated.
Secretary Alger will be ruined
and will not be able to dispose Of
thousands of cases Of canned beef
which he has in stock.
One thousand trusts to control
everything including the air and the
sunlight will not be organized.
Men like Bynum will be forced to
seek an honest livelihood instead of
being retained in office constantly
IN return for having changed their
politics.
The plans for corporations to de-
spoil Porto Rico, Cuba and the
philippines under guse of extending
our commerce will be foiled.
England will be compelled to re-
linquish the territory ceded to her
by Mckinley in Alaska and will
sever the alliance which she has so
benignantly bestowed upon us leav
ing us to drift to our fate.
None of the deals made with the
trusts and other combinations for
plundering the government will be
carried out.

BADLY SCARED.

The gold bug Executive Commit
tee, headed by II. II. Hanna,
chairman is writing letters to every
one supposed to be doubtful, to get
them lined up to work for the Re-
publican party. We have read
several of these letters that had
been sent to parties who resented
receiving them and sent them to us.
They show the desperation of the
Republican cause ar this time.
Every person who receives one of
these letters can rest assured that he
is on the doubtful list and that his
name has been sent in to Hanna on
that account. Here are some ex-
tracts from one of these letters:
Dear Sir -
There is very great danger that
the Bryanite free silver advocates
will, by the November election,
gain control of the lower House of
the Fifty-seventh Congress.
If they gain representatives from
eight districts and keep what they
now have, they will be in the
majority.
There is little doubt but they will
gain three in North Carolina.
They will probably gain one in
Kentucky. two in Indiana, one in
Missouri and one in Texas.
1t will be very difficult for the
Sound money people to prevent the
Bryanites gaining the districts
mentioned, and it will be very
difficult for the Sound money people
to gain any new districts.
In every Congressional district in
the country the friends of sound
money should put forth every pos
sible honorable effort to secure
votes favorable to candidates com
mitted to sound money laws.
1t is absolutely necessary to gain
some new districts and a struggle
is necessary to save many that are
represented by sound money mem
bers.
The sound money candidate in
your district must be supported by
all possible cooperation. You can
help to save the people from the
disaster that threatens them by pro-
noting the election of Hon. A. G..
Dayton.
Bring these facts to the attention
of every man who is willing to
listen.
Can we depend upon you II
so PLEASE SEND Us THE NAMES OF
TLN INrORTANT MEN IN YOUR
town OR COUNTY who arc wavering
and whom you believe we could
influence by personal letters, and
oblige, Faithfully yours,
u. II. HAEvA, Chairman.

EDUCATION DERIVED
FROM THE BALLOT.

One of our great metropolitan
newspapers recently said editorially !:
ga Presidential election is a
greater education of the people than
all the schools and universities All
other schools are preparatory to
its universal and transcendent eff
cheney. All merely literary and
scientific cnthusiasima are feeble
and secluded in comparison with
the great awakening of intellectual
ardor it provokes and cultivates.
OF all special educations, it is the
most practical the most general.
the most effective"
This same paper is opposed to
women's taking partin Presidential
or any other election and would bar
them out from this "greater educat-
ion than all the schools aud universi
ties. 1t would confnc them wholly
to the feeble and secluded literary
and scientific enthusiasma. and
forbid them this great awakening
OF intellectual ardor." 1t would
deprive them entirely of this "most
practical, most general and most
effective Of all special cducations &"
Exactly the same spirit few gen.
erauons ago debarred women from
the high schools and colleges.
1t may be said that campaign
instead Of an election is meant and
that women share in its educational
I advantages by reading the papers
and attending the public meetings.
But Of what avail is the knowledge
thus gained if it can not be made
effective on election day?
Another paper commenting on
this paragraph says
"This is quite right. A great
cause is tried before a jury Of The
people, and the best thought Of the
best minds is applied to The problem
Of setting forth the facts and con.
yincing the people"
Imagine The lawyers in a case

then allowing only six " them 90

matter of no consequence "Our
examiners cannot be expected 10
discover an old defalcation when
the bank officers themselves have
not found or suspected it. The
First National Bank can stand II
easily, with surplus of SO, 900,
600" These few words of Secrc
tary Gage arc strong indictment
of the National bank system, as it
is now run. IL the bank examiners
"cannot be expected" to find
crookedness until II is pointed out
to them by the bank officers, pray,
how do they earn their salaries ? If
the people elect Mr. Bryan Presi-
dent, he will let Secretary of the
Treasury who will expect more of
the bank examiners, and will see TO
it that they are men with knowledge
and skill enough to meet his ex.
pectations. This particular bank
has been such pet of Republican
Secrctarys of the Treasury, since
1877, when it jumped into promin-
ence as one OF the most successful
New York banks, through favors
given 1t by the Treasury Depart
ment, that the bank examiners may
have been afraid 10 look too closely
into its books.

Shall destiny doom this republic like Rome,
And the barter of lite bring bereavement at
home
Aud leave the far ISLANDERS home in
dismay,
For which he meets death in his du,iful
way
Home, home Sad, sad home
Tho the gain may be millions, they're
not worth one home.
