happiness aad good out OF life but does
not know enough about the world to for
mulate original philosophy. Without ira
dition, CUSTOM and all the safeguards
which society throws about its members
the great mass of humanity would be badly
off indeed. Anarchy is instinctively felt,
by most people, TO be an undesirable state
of things And why? Because the average
mind is not capable of going down to the
foundation OF things and constructing new
systems. The moral and social conventions
of the world are like paving IN streets;
they make travel easier and safer for the
multitude
But it does not follow that the whole
world shall be paved, or that nobody shall
be allowed off the sidewalks. There must
be room fer the exercise of individuality,
and social traditions, to be perfect, must
be flexible enough to allow this. In bring
ing up child it is useless to try to mold
the child into something which ii was
never meant 10 be. If Of strong character,
Ich treatment will simply arouse its
self will and opposition, possibly drive it
to underhand ways of getting things: if
the character is not strong enough 10 stand
up against the pressure We have one OF
those indeterminate personalities which
are like Reuben, unstable water, want
ing one thing and doing another never
to be counted on, at odds with themselves
and everyone else.

SWEET POTATOES ABROAD.
Experimental Shipment Meets With
Favor in London and Paris

COLLEGE PARK. Nd, Aug 13-At the
regular monthly meeting of the Evansville
Farmers Club. held Saturday evening at
the residence of a, ]. Bennett, Contee Sta
ton. Prince Georges County, the seere-
tary, D. NJ. Nesbitt, was called upon for
report on the sweet potato export enquiry
Initiated by the Evansville Farmers Club.
Mr.. Nesbi1t stated that the Secretary of
Agriculture had authorized the sending Of
ten barrels of sweet potatoes to London and
az many TO Paris. He read abstracts from
letters of the department S agents in those
cities. The potatoes sent to Paris were
put on exhibition at the Worlds Fair and
attracted much attention. Those sent to
London were put on the market and reports
received encouraged Secretary Wilson to
continue his efforts to have American sweet
potatoes regularly installed in the markets
Of Europe It is not expected that the
exports of sweet potatoes will be Limited to
the tubers in their natural form, out will
include the canned and desiccated products
of the sweet potato. concerning which the
secretary of the club has received many
letters. There Is reason to hope that the
demand for American sweet potatoes in
Europe will in a few years come to be. as
the demand for American fruits has al
ready become. of very great Importance.
A resolution was passed thanking Secre-
tary Wilson for his courtesy in giving this
report to the Evansville Farmers' Club in
ADVANCE Of its official publications and for
the vigorous action he has taken in push
ing this promising enquiry.
The members Of the club regard the
sweet potato experiment as the most i'm
portant move made for many years in the
interest of the farmers and truckers of
this State and in fact of the greatest in
terest TO the whole country. The potatoes
not only met with favor, but were regarded
by all who tried them the greatest and
most attractive of any of the vegetables,
and they really sold at a very large price,
enough to realize nearly double the amount
10 be got for them in this country, clear of
ali eXpenses.

Mistaken Culture.

An agricultural journal sagaciously re-
marks:

There is an analogy here which is worth
consideration in a brief homiIy The civil
lzation and Improvement OF the human
race is very much like fruit culture. When

Some months ago a contract was let for

The Golfer Candidacy.

Political news from New York today
offers consi -era5le evidence that the Re-
publican hope of a Democratic family row
in that State is doomed to disappointment.
The impression is now strong in the me-
tropolis and at Saratoga that, although
Mr.. Croker might prefer ano-lac candt-
date for the Governorship, if the popular
Comptroller Golfer should go into the con-
vertion with Kings county behind him, ard
develop strength IL the up State" coUn-
ties. Tammany viii accept him cheeTflily
as the choice OF the party, and give him
united ard hearty support.
Mr.. Croker ard former Senator Hill may
have their differences, but neither is prob
ably short-sighted enough TO let them en-
danger the success of the State Or the na-
tional ticket in year when t1e.r co op "a
ton or otherwise might east y tu-1 the sale
toward victory or defeat in both instan e..
At the present time il is entirely evident
that Mr.. Hanna and his machine coafeder-
ates are pan!c-stricken and on the run.
Their principal hope now is that SisssI-
sioBs and blunders may hit the Democratic
camp, and demoralize its organization. \
cy this year are forewarned on that score,
and are forearmed by the unanimity OF
their leaders and rank and file concerning
the paramount car etb4g imperialism, trust,
and miIitarism issues of the campaign.
Disorganization is Republican danger in
1900, as it was a Democratic disaster in
1896, Deliberate and fragrant violation Of
the Constitution in the tariff and crown
colonial oppression of Porto Rico, and Al
gerism Eaganism, Abnerism, SaHpsonism.
the return to the spoils system, and pro-
motion of trust and monopoly exploitation
and loot, have combined to drive a hun
dred Republicans out of their party where
one Democrat broke away from his in the
previous Presidential campaign.
If Mr.. Hanna looks for political comfort
from fight between the Tammany and
Hill elements in New York of kind 10
jeopardize the results in November. he
would better turn his eyes in some other
direction. There is no more probability
that such a thing Will happen than there
is that the important German American
vote of the Middle West Will be cast for
the ticket OF the trusts and Imperialism
