Six Tickets In the Field and Much
Scratching Done.

night not a single polling place had turned
in figures on to-day's election. Owing to

amount of scratching, definite figures as
to which candidate has been victorious

cussed both influences have been at work
to a remarkable degree. The Washington
Methodist preacher who has grown white
resembles a Caucasian not only in outward
appearance, but also in language, manners
and learning. though he be personally n x
ious TO be taken for a representative OF
his race. Even casual observers will adj
nit that the average Northern and Eastern
Afro-Amerfcan of the day is very much
unlike the type Of negro formerly seen in
the United States.
One of the reasons is undoubtedly the
fact that the Afro-American population is
no longer reinforced by accessions from
Africa, but as more potent ones the friends
Of the human race will recognize the facts
that Of the 100000 negroes in America
nearly 2,250,00O can read and write-not a
bad showing when it is remembered that
slavery forced its victims to an alphabet
ism and general ignorance-and that Afro
Americans maintain over 5000 schools,
with 1.500.G00 pupils and 5000 colored teach
ers. in addition to 15O training schools. His
love for religion, music and poetry is an
other element generating and furthering
the process Of assimilation and absorption,
and this is reinforced by the negro's imi-
tative tendencies, that lead him to the
adoption Of his neighbours traits and habits.

The question he set himself 10 answer
was. How best TO work for the coming
of the kingdom Of God in London" OF
the mastery answer only an outline can
be given. Nothing mOlds the world like
character: therefore be in yourself what
you would like everybody in London TO be.
Make your home what you would like all
the other homes 10 be. With the beer
bottle on your own table. how can you ever
expect TO see London sober? Then let the
kingdom of God into the churches. This is
a big undertaking.. he said. for there is al
most as much that is anti-Chritsian in the
churches as in business life. Only make
our churches Christian churches in the
fullest sense, and we could revolutionize
London in ten years. So he went on, urg-
ing then the application of Christian prin-
ciple to the housing question and to in
dustrial conditions.
Multitudes might properly claim that
having to work so many hours a day they
could give no thought to municipal prob
lens. He excused such as these. The best
thing these oppressed toilers could do when
they get home at night was to toast their
toes. hold a newspaper before them, so it
wouldn't seem as though they were doing
nothing, and so 10 sleep But" he said,
with fierce earnestness, I'VE must change
these hard conditions and give workmen
more time to rest and think" A very tell
ing point was the question, when Will the
kingdom of God be admitted to the British
Parliament" The way he asked this ques-
ton caused a smile TO spread over all
faces, but a look of seriousness followed,
for his next utterance was, IF 1 should
undertake to tell you at one time all the
expressions and inequalities that the Brit

ToIstoi rs He Is.

". Z. Curtis, in Record-Herald.
Tolstoi is a good deal Of a humbug. He
is a great advertiser. He goes around
barefooted in the garments of a peasant
il order to give people something 10 talk
about. In the winter he wears sheepskin
clothing and a big fur cap. and those who
know him well tell me that he is not famil~
lar with the ordinary uses Of water. He
initiates the Russian peasants in that re-
spect, as in others. They never battle.
and, like the Laplanders, seldom remove
their clothing until it is outgrown or worn
out. Tolstoi belongs to a noble family OF
high rank and distinguished in history.

it is an hOnored name also. He is the first
Tolstoi, they say, that was ever a crank,
but he is one Of the first water. There is
no question that he has done a great deal
OF good by his writings; that by exposing
the wrongs of the peasants he has COM
PEELED the government 10 adopt important
reforms, but men have been great philan-
thropists and served their country and
mankind. and still used tubs and dressed
in civilized clothing. TolstoIs early books
are brilliant; his pictures of Russian life
are graphic and accurate; he is a master
in the Interpretation OF the weaknesses and
vices of mankind. but his teachings are i'm
moral and perniciOGs. and his u~tterances
are frequently b~lasphemous. Some of his
books are as bad as books can be, but
there is no question Of their dramatic force
and literary merit.

have found silage corn very helpful
in carrying the dairy cow through a

Ohio dairyman. Many dairymen grow
corn for this purpose. cutting and feed
ing daily from the field. After three
years experience with the silo for
summer feeding must say that pre-
fer to grow the corn year ahead, har-
vest 1t all in one day, then when the
busy harvest is upon us we do not have
to spend one to two hours day cut
ting and hauling from the field, but
can feed our dairy in ten minutes from
the silo. Results in milk yield have
been quite satisfactory. The June flush
cannot of course be maintained, but I
have found silage with a little grain
much better than larger amount of
grain alone. Milk yields are not only
better, but more cash is kept on the
farm.

Friday is Flag Day.
Gov Van SAINT Calls Upon the People TO OBJ
serve the Day.

Minnesota will have flag day this
year. TIE Governor issued the procla-
nation Saturday afternoon. Minnesota
is one Of the first states to observe Hag
day. Gov. Van SAINT has designated
June IA to be observed by a general dis
play of flags upon al public and private
buildings. The proclamation is as fol-
lows
The American flag is universally rec
ognlzed as the emblem of liberty and
Justice. Beneath It's folds wherever it
floats brave and loyal American hearts
beat with pride and devotion. To the
oppressed Of every land it affords the
inspiration of hope for relief and better
coalitions. To each of our citizens it
vouchsafes individual liberty and pro-
teciion to personal and property rights.
The fire of patriotism never burned more
brightly in the American heart than to-
day. It is eminently proper that ar op-
pcrtunity be afforded to unitedly show
our regret for the Stars and Stripes and
our love for our common country. An
approved custom has arisen of appoint
ing day upon which the flag is dis
played upon public buildings, private
residences and business houses. In ac-
cord with this commendable custom |.
Samuel r. Van SAINT, as governor of the
State of Minnesota, do hereby designate
Friday, June "A, A. D. 1901, as Flag
Day, and heartily recommend general
display of Old Glory throughout the
day, Let our national banner be in evil
dence upon all public buildings, shops,
factories, farm houses and city residen-
ces.
