FOR BRYAN.
EX-ATTORNEY GENERAL MONETTE,
OF OHIO.

Last Friday Frank S. Monette, who
won distinction as prosecutor Of
trusts while a Republican office holder
in Ohio, announces his purpose To
vote for Bryan and Stevenson. In
doing so, Mr.. Monette said:
'It has become my privilege and
duty to institute upward Of fourteen
suits ag ainst these combinations, mo-
nopolies and trusts, as your sworn Of
Acer OF the Law, calling upon the high.
est officers OF tlfe State to electrocute
these violators of the law that pillage
your sugar bowl, your oil can, your
tobacco bag, and to protect you in
your rights ofps(nte property under
the constitution aud laws of the State.
We labored to accomplish this. and it
was our duty to do so. We were hin.
dered and obstructed by Republican
Legislators. The monopolists sent
their briber with his seduction OF gold
and with promises OF position and sal
ary, and procured the leading govern
mental official to defend them, and
last, but not least, driven from pillar
to post, they came into court and with
uplifted hands swOre that they did
not and could not answer the inter-
royatories or produce their books, for
il they did it would subject their cor.
porations to civil deaths for violating
the law of their creation; and, lastly,
that it would incriminate the college
fostering, churcherecting, campaign
contributing monopolists. A like ex-
perience was encountered against the
salt trust at Pomeroy, o. The same
lodging and sculking from the aveng
ing law was adopted there"

In speaking OF the shifting OF States
in national elections the Boston Post
says: "The most remarkable instance
Of change is that of New York and
Indiana. With absolute and unvary'
ing regularity these two States, since
the second election OF Lincoln In 1864,
have given their vote alternately TO
one and then to the other party candi- :
date for President. Both of these
States went Republican in 1895. it Is
their turn to go Democratic this
year. Another point is to be noted.
Since the time of Grant and bayo'
net elections in the South the candl'
date who has received the vote OF In
diana aud New York has been elected
II Bryan gets the votes OF these
States, which are due to come to the
Democracy this year, he will be elect
ed beyond peradventure."

A few OF the more intelligent peO-
pie Of the North have come tOrealize,
and to confess, that a stupid, nay a
criminal blunder was commttted by
the Republican party In clothing the
negro with the right of suffrage. Prof.
W. S. Scarborough, of Wilberforce Uni.
versity, Ohio, Is quoted as saying:
'The great trouble with the colored
people In the South has been their in.
ordinate desire to 60 into politics. 1t
is my opinion that too many political
privileges were given to the colored
people at the close OF the war. I am
convinced now that 1t was q most un.
wise thing to do to have allowed the
colored people to vote. That privilege
should have been given only after the
colorcd man had complied with GER
tain wise provisions and been able to
meet certain requirements"

WAS BOUND TO HAVE HIS FEE.

Judge Philips, of the United States
district court, tells this one on GER
tain Topeka lawyer, says the Kansas
City World:
A man was brought into the judges
court charged with violation OF the
United States revenue law. He was
evidently a poor, ignorant man, who
had concluded that when he was yank-
ed up before the United States court
it was nearly equal to being condemn
ed to be hanged without trial. lie
had employed the Topeka lawyer to
defend him, and when his case was
called and he was brought before the
bar OF the court the judge noticed
that he wore a long linen duster but
toned from the throat down. A breeze
blowing in through the courtroom
window lifted the tail of the prisoners
duster and the court observed that the
prisoners legs were bare.
"IIave you no pants on?" asked the
court, somewhat sternly.
II have not, your honor" answered
the prisoner, shamfacedly.
"What do you mean by coming into
the court attired that way:"
swell, your honor, | hadn't an!
money and had to give those pants
to my attorney to apply on his fee."
TO say Judge Philips was hot ex
presses it mildly. Turning to the at
torney he said sharply:
"Either give that man back hi!
pants at once or get him another pair
II you don't do this Immediately yol
will meyer be allowed to come int
this court again as long as am Of
the bench"
The lawyer gave up the pants.

A Greek discovered electricity by
rubbing a piece of Amber hundred
years before Christ, but he could do
nothing with it but name 1t. Benja-
min Franklin made more use OF It,.
Morse did still more, and Edison goes
them several better. BY and by some
one will construct an electric railway
in the form OF tube and call 1t an
electro.scoot. Passengers will enter
it in New York, touch button and
arrive in San Francisco two hours be-
fore they started. That is beating
time. Another discovery will be made
by which the young man Of the future
may stand at his kiss.a.phone In New
York and kiss his sweetheart in Chi
cago, with all the delights thereunto
appertaining, and the same um-yum'
yum. That will be saving time. A
dude will have his rations stored 10

AT THE GATE.
BY MRS. j. X. LAWLON.

The gates Of heaven stood ajar, and
long shafts of dazzling radiance shot
down into the illimitable violet gulf
where float the stars. Far below IA
bell tollcd slowly, and dim, white
cloud, floating up beyond the atmos-
phere of the earth, sailed into the
brightness, and as it became lambent
in the light that fell from the open
gates it took form, and 10! it was a
human soul-the soul of man!
Up and up, with wide, wondering
eyes, he floated until, catching a
glimpse Of the inner glory, where an
gels, who rest not day or night, soar
through an empyrean having no light
OF the sun, neither Of the moon, being
filled with the presence of the Eter-
nal, he hesitated and drew back like

to a strange and unknown place.
"This grand place Gamma be for the

And he looked around him, on this

descry some humber entrance to
heaven, but each shining gate was
more brilliant than the other, and
from all there poured forth such music
as never on earth ravished the ear Of
man.

A NEW FEED PLANT.

A bulletin just issued by the Flori-
da Experiment Station, describing the
experiments of feeding beef cattle on
cassava, is of interest and very I'M
portant to southern farmers. The
cassava fed beef is declared to be the
finest known to the marketmeu where
it has been tried. 1t grows best on
light shady soil--such as is common
all over the South, and which will
produce little else.
The cassaya grows under ground,
and springs up every year without re-
planting. 1t can be dug summer or
winter without injury to the plant,
the many small roots remaining IN
the ground springing into life almost
Immediately, thus reproducing itself
year after year.

'The great mistake was in giving the

to them was their elimination from

through the Australian ballot. Prior
to that time they were in politics and
they became worthless. Just as soon
as they got out of politics, they began
to turn their attention to agriculture

SOME TINE.
BY MRS. MAY RILEY SMITH.

Some time, when all life's lessons have
been learned.
And sun and stars forevermore have
set,
The things which our weak judgment
here has spurned-
The things DER which we grieved with
lashes wet
Will flash before us out of life's dark
night,
AS stars shine most in deeper tints of
blue;
And we shall see how all Gods plans
were right,
And now what seemed reproof was
love most true.
And we shall see that, while we frown
and sigh,
Gods plans 60 on as best for you and
me;
How, when we called, He needed not
our cry,
Because His wisdom to the end could
see;
And e'en as prudent parents disallow
Too much of sweet to craving baby
hood,
So God, perhaps, is keeping from us now
Life's sweetest things, because it seem
eth good.
And if, some time, commingled with
life's wine,
We find the wormwood, and rebel ant
shrink,
Be sure wiser hand than yours or min'
Pours out this potion for our lips t.
drink;
And if some friend we love is lying low
Where human kisses cannot reach hi
| face.
Oh, do not blame the loving Father Sc
But bear your sorrow with obedien
grace.
And you shall shortly know that length
ened bIeath
Is not the sweetest gift God sends Hi
friend,
And that sometimes the sable pail {
II death
Conceals the fairest boon His love ca
II send.
If we could push ajar the gates of life,
And stand within, and all Gods worl
ings sec,
! We could interpret all this doubt ar
strife,
And for each mystery could find a Ike
But not to-day. Then be content, POI
heart!
, Gods plans, like lilies pure and whit
, unfold;
We must not tear the close-shut leav
apart;
Time will reveal the calyxes of gol
And if, through patient toll, we rea'
the land
Where tired feet, with sandals loose
may rest.
When we shall clearly know and undt

sISSIpPI, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1900.

and again that strange cry OF Goo
o.oal!" sounded like one of the sad un-
dertones OF earth through the music
OF heaven.
Now there was group OF cherubs
assembled round an angel, whose be-
nign countenance shone as he ex.
planned to them how the worlds were
hung in space, and how in the crea-
tion they all sang together, and still
continue singing il earth dulled ears
would only listen and hear, when that
strange dolorous cry of "Co-o-o oal!"
reached them, bringing a sudden
pause. But at the repetition OF the
sound a cherub, remarkable for his
beauty of face and form, rose swiftly
and spreadingAis wings, shouted JOY
fully:
sit is my father" and made straight
for the gate.
"Father." he cried, shading his eyes
with the tips of his wings as he look
ed down, sis it you?"
SAY, Davie; is it you, my Ladder"
cried the coalman gladly, for he heard
the voice and recognize it; but his
eyes were dazzled by the glory, and all
he could discern was radiant form,
O erarched by a pair of rainbow-tinted
wings that quivered and scintillated
with intensity of joy.
"I've keepit my promise to ye,
Davie, lad; it was lang sair warsle
TO break off, but l dit it. I've never
tasted sin promised ye, Davie an
I've aye dune what was RIGHT, though
| MIGHT be oot o. pouch for it. An
! moo, laddie, dye think III win in be.
side ye?"
The answer was a silvern flash OF
t wings, and the next moment the beau
tiful being with Davies face and
: Davies eyes floated down the shaft OF
light and folded the soul of the weary
s coalman in his warm young arms.
"Eh, man, Davie, it was hard, hare
u doom bye there. My back was ben
an my heart strained carryin' coal VI
a thae weary pairs O. stairs; but, Oh
my laddie. this mak's up for it a,
< keepit my word to ye, Davie lad;
keepit my word l never tasted
d drap frae the day ye left u.s."
The cherub with Davies eyes smile
y. and said gently:
,r Come, father" and led the way u
toward "a glowing opal gate. But tn
e, soul of the coalman drew back.
INA, Davie; that door maun be 10
es the Draw an well-aff. Haze ye ma
cannie side door for the like OF me-"
!. ~ The seraph smiled and held up hi
finger: "Listen, father"
Il 1t was the song of the angels
they marshaled to welcome the SOL
r. OF the newcomer, and the words the
chanted seemed strangely familiar
od the listener:
"To him that overcometh will l give
To sit on my right hand,
And will be his Father,
And he shall be my son."
But as the cherub took his hand
lead him in, 10! the man awoke ana
nd was again in the dingy little room
ct the slums of the great gray city, an
III his wife was weeping by the bedsld
and the neighbors stood around
te sympathetic silance. He tried
)s. speak but could not, for Davies mar
he was still in his. and was drawing hi
Mt on toward the opel gate.

THE GULF STREAM.
New York Sun.

New York Sun.
Professor Nansen has been making
some interesting statements with re-
gard to the results of the scientific ex-
periments conducted during his latest
expedition on the Michael Sara, which
returned to Norway. The Gulf
Stream, he says, is subject to great
changes, and very little is yet known
as to its strength in winter. 1t was
much weaker on the Norwegian coast
this year than usually is the case, and
the temperature was consequently
lower. At the same time very warm
summer was experienced in the west
of Iceland, and the current that pas
ses there was warmer this summer
than usual. In general, the warm
water coming from the Atlantic into
the northern regions this summer ap.
pears to have had a different distribu-
tion from that which has commonly
prevailed, ard the climatic conditions
on the coast, which the stream passes,
have been affected correspondingly'
He thinks that it ought to be pos
sible to foretell the distribution Of
warmth by simultaneous observations
in different partr of the sea, and thai
international marine explorations
should be organized to this end. Al
accurate prediction Of the character
of the coming summer, he points out
would be OF inestimable benefit to az
ricultists. He expresses the opinion
that the periodical changes Of the cul
rents OF the sea have much create
influence upon climatic conditions il
various countries than anybody hitt
erto has supposed.
