The Elder Funston.

Washington Correspondence of the Louis-
 vile Courier-Journal.
 General Funston's father was for twelve years a member of Congress. He was emphatically the farmer in statesmanship. For four years he served his constituents in the army, and it was not until the war was over that he laid down his arms and returned to the farm. The event in American history that commands the most admiration was the disband- ment of the armies, North and South, in 1865, and their return to the peace full walks. It was an example for all the world, warning to Caesars and Napoleons yet unborn. After a while we see the elder Funston in the State Legislature and Speaker in 1875. In 1880 he was State Senator, and two years later he was elected to Con gress. He was chairman of the com mittee of agriculture, and he and Farmer Hatch of Missouri devoted much statesmanship to the advance ment of the farmer. They drove a coach and four through the constitu- tion of the United States every ses- sion. They were the original oleomar-  garine chasers. They promoted the ''Horse-book," that had a run like Dickens most popular novel. They exploited a Japan fig that was war ranted to stand a Montana blizzard and which proved to be very inferior North Carolina persimmon. When the last Bland silver bill was killed in Congress the opposition was led by Tom Reed, Republican; George Fred Williams, Mugwump; John Dewitt Warner, Cleveland Democrat; Bourke Cochran, Tammany Democrat; Amos Cummings, Hill Democrat. Reed la bored long and faithfully with Farmer Funston. It was without avail Farmer Funston was for silver, and he and the unspeakable Pickler headed squad of nearly score of Republicans who stood by Bland as the Tenth Legion stood by Caesar.

Two State Officials Inspect Booker
 Washington's Institution.

sioner Poole of the State Department of Agriculture accompanied by Chief Clerk Adams of the department, came to Tus- kegee yesterday to visit Booker T. Wash ington's institution, the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute. This school re- ceives an annual appropriation from the State for an agricultural experiment sta tion, and the commissioner desired to per sonally inspect the work being done. He expressed himself as being well pleased with the extent and progress of the work being done by this school It is giving the most thorough instruction along ag- ricultural lines and is fitting young negro men, and women, too, in the lighter forms to go out and do farming after the most approved methods.

IS 1T AN EPIDEMIC?


AT no time In the history of disease
has there been such an alarming In
crease in the number of cases of any
particular malady as in that of kidney
and bladder troubles now preying
upon the people Of this country.
Today we see a relative, friend or
an acquaintance apparently well, and
In few days we may be grieved to
learn Of their serious illness or sud-
den death, caused by that fatal type
of kidney trouble-Bright's disease.
Kidney trouble often becomes ad-
vanced into acute stages before the
afflicted is aware Of its presence; that
Is why we read of so many sudden
deaths of prominent business and pro-
fessional men, physicians and others.
They have neglected to stop the leak
in time.
While scientists are puzzling their
brains to find out the cause, each in
dividual can, by a little precaution,
avoid the chances of contracting dread
ed and dangerous kidney trouble, or
eradicate it completely from their sys-
tenn IL already afflicted. Many precious
lives might have been, and many more
can yet be saved, by paying attention
to the kidneys.
1t is the mission of the Democrat
to benefit its readers at every oppor-
turity and therefore we advise all who
have any symptoms of kidney or blad-
der trouble to write today to DIR. Kill
mer d Co., Binghamton, n. Y, for
free sample bottle of Swamp. Root, the
celebrated specific which Is having
such a great demand and remarkable
success in the cure of the most dis
tressing kidney and bladder troubles
With the sample bottle of Swamp Root
will also be sent free a pamphlet and
treastise of valuable information.

program will be given. Many ex-res-
idents of the township are now living

HAY MAKERS
TROUBLES.
Many Farmers Worked Half the
Night This Year.

Talk about making hay while the
sun shines,'' said a we'll known Ak
roman Thursday, Il saw many farm
er this year who made his hay by
moonlight. He had to do it or his
crops would not have been harvested.
Wheat, oats and hay seemed to pile
in on each other with a rapidity that
startled the farmer He could not get
help enough to harvest the crop, by
working in the daytime, so he had to
do the best he could, and many farm
er hauled hay, wheat and oats half the
night, in order to save it from rain
and get it out of the way in time to
permit him to work at something
else.'

BUSY MAN.
There Are Very Few Buster Than
Squire Coleman.

One of the busiest men in Akron is
Justice w. +. Coleman, of Wooster
ave. Very few are the mornings which
do not find him In his office by $50
o'clock and many are the evenings that
he is there until after o o'clock. Squire
Colemans work also keeps a clerk,
Mrs. Carrie Koplin, steadily busy. A
new docket was opened by Squire Cole
man July IL. Since that time 80
pages have been filed, representing
half as many cases, and there are still
others to be docketed.
In the four years of Squire Coleman's
official career number of cases have
been appealed from his court to Com
mon Pleas, but not one of his decis-
ions has been reversed.

Z. 'SCANT
Progress Since
1869
In Method Of Treating
COnvicts
After Their Discharge
From Prison.
Quotation From an Old Report
on the Subject.

The editor of the ONO Bulletin or
Charities and Correction quotes from
the annual report of the Ohio Board
of State Charities for 1869, in re-
gard to the treatment of discharged
convicts, and says that conditions are
still the same in this year of 1901"
The report follows:
The State owes it to him as well as
to society that he, if he desires to re-
turn to the enjoyment of the rights of
the citizen, and the observance of the
duties of good citizenship, should have
at least such encouragement as tem-
porary aid would afford in establish
ing the sincerity of his desires and the
performance of his obligations.
Few know the difficulties; none but
the discharged convict himself can
appreciate the peculiar trials and
temptations that lie at the very thres-
hold of his return to society. Every
step from the prison outward is filled
with fear; overcast with doubt, beset
by temptation, and not unfrequently
overcome by diftiulty. Why wonder
that one so weak should fall, where
many so strong may perish?
The Board would respectfully urge
the necessity for some special pro-
vision in behalf of such discharged
convicts from our penitentiary, as
will enable them, If they have the
purpose so to do, to regain confidence
and re-establish character among men,
The paltry pittance which enables
the prisoner barely to reach his home,
to lind (as in most cases is the fact
that his family is destitute and he
without means to supply their least
want, without credit, by which these
supplies could be temporarily supplied,
and without reputation even by which
to secure employment to justify, does
in measure mitigate the offense when
he returns to crime.
Some s-Massachusetts as an
instance-has its state agent and its
fund for relief of such discharged
prisoners. By this means employment
is secured Immediately on the dis
charge of the prisoner, his immediate
wants and those of his family Gf he
has one) are supplied, tools, if needed
are furnished, or such other helps are
afforded him as enables him to show
himself a man.
This provision has proved, in its
operation in that State, not merely
a personal blessing to the individual
but its influence upon society general
ly has been most benefcent. The re-
port of the directors and warden Of
the Ohio penitentiary will doubtless
show what has been done, and what
is doing in this regard for discharged
convicts from that institution. With
out special knowledge of the operations
of the past year, the Board feels as
sured, from the high character of
these officers, that to the utmost of
their discretion they have been liber-
al toward these men; and yet, when
the aggregate is made and the dividend
is struck, it will indicate that this
provision is wholly inadequate to the
actual necessities of such cases.
