xxSiv, 1t will be observed that Moses
went to the top Of Pisgah, where the
Lord she wed him all the land of Gil.
cad, unto Dan, with other lands, in.
Guiding Judah, unto the utmost sea.
and the plain Of the valley Of Jericho
unto Ioar. And the Lord said unto
Moses, as recorded in the fourth verse
This is the land, which | sware unto
Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob,
saying, ! will give it unto toy seed; ]
have caused thee to see 1t with thine
eyes, but thou shalt not 60 over
thither." In viewing this broad per.
spective OF many lands Moses was ad.
monished that he should never 20 to
the promised region, though his seed
should enjoy it. Moses died at the age
Of 100, remaining in the land of Moab
to the last. Unless Mr.. Bryan is talk.
ing for posterity he wants q party
Joshua instead Of a Moses; and il he
puts it on this ground there will be a
promised land but no Democratic
party.

Annual A. o. u. W. Meeting.

The annual A. o. L. W. meeting tina,
had been postponed on ccouu Of the
rain on the 4th instant, took place al
the Christian church last Sunday
morning.
The Workmen and Degree of Honor
turned out %splendidly and filled the
whole middle section Of the main audi.
forum, while the side seats and lee.
ture room were occupied by the friends
and visitors. The service began with
the Doxology, sung by the audience
while standing, followed by a brief in.
vocation by the minister OF the church
and speaker Of the day, Il. A. Mere
dith.
The next number vas an a%ppropri.
ate selection by the choir, followed by
the reading Of the Scripture lesson,
Luke, 10: 25, 81. The choir sang an.
other very pretty number and y spe-
cial prayer for Divine favor was then
offered by the speaker. A special song,
u Ye Into All the World" with a
bass obligato solo, was then sung by
the Workman Male Quartet, followed
by a very pretty selection.
The Good Samaritan" was the main
thought of the address. The text was
Luke 10: 36, 81. The speaker dealt
with the work Of the fraternal orders
and stated that the work that is being
done by them today was done by the
Church OF Christ when it began, and
the only excuse for the existence of the
orders today was the negligence of the
church. LET the church come back
to the position the Lord intended her
to occupy and tie orders would be alb.
sorbed by the church, and the church
would be doing again her first
works."
The A. o. U. w. makes the best
showing Of any benevolent insurance
order, as 1t should, being the mother
OF all OF them. The service was very
much appreciated and the speaker has
received very many compliments Of
the highest order and of the warmest
nature. The A.. o.. U. w. congratulate
themselves on the occasion Of this, an.
other annual meeting.

Experiments In Sugar Beet Raising.

The sugar beet experiments reported
in bulletin No. 70 were conducted dur.
ing the season Of 1901, upon the farm
OF the Standard Cattle Company, at
Ames, Dodge county, Nebraska. These
experiments included tests of varieties,
tests OF fertilizers, distance OF plant.
ing, time OF planting, methods OF cul.
tivation, and the treatment Of sugar
beet diseases.
A test OF thirty. seven varieties under
similar conditions showed q wide vari.
alton in the total amount of sugar pro.
duced per ace, the Original Klein
Wanzlebener occupying first place.
A comparison Of light and heavy
soils for sugar beet production showed
a considerably higher sugar content
in the beets grown upon the heavy
soil.
Slight increases in the yield, sugar
content, and purity Of beets were pro.
duced by the use Of commercial fer.
tilizers, but their use did not seem to
be profitable upon the land where the
tests were made. OF the different
classes Of fertilizers used the phos.
pilates gave The best results.
A comparison Of the different depths
OF cultivating sugar beets was in favor
OF about four to i've inches as com.
pared with six.inch or two to three.
inch cultivation.
The most satisfactory distance of
plantir & was found to be lS inches be-
tween rows and 8 inches between
plants in the lows.
A comparison Of the sugar content
OF beets grown among weeds and on
clean ground showed that the presence
of weeds may very materially affect
the quality Of the beets.
The fresh growth of the beets in.
duced by the wet weather during Sep.
TENDER was found to result in a rapid
reduction OF the percentage of sugar
content OF the beets, but the results OF
extensive determinations indicate that
unless the fresh growth is accompa.
MED by buds upon the crowns there
seems to be no real loss Of sugar-the
beets seem to increase in size and
weight while the sugar remains at a
s~tandstill.
oSurface applications of lime we're Of.
fectively used in checking the Rhizoc.
tonia rot OF bsets. Repeated spraying
with bordeaux mixture" seemed to be
OF some value as a preventive of "leaf
spot" but did not show any curative
value upon diseased leaves.
The seasons experience showed to a
remarkable extent the drouth. resistant
qualities Of sugar beets, in which re.
spect they were found to be superior
to any crop upon the farm except al.
falfa.

Bryan, Moses and the Promised Land,

From the 81. Louis Globe Democrat.
In a speech at Birmingha II, Ala, a
few days ago Mr.. Bryan likened him.
self to Aaron, who assisted Moses in
leading the children u Of the wilder
ness" Mr.. BRYAN said he was "per.
fectly willing to let some other person
take the part of Moses" As the orator
quotes Scripture often in his speeches
and lectures, we called his attention to
the need of accuracy. 1t was Joshua
who led the children into the promised
land after the era Of Moses and Aaron,
neither of whom ever set foot upon it
or led their brethren thither. We said
Moses "never saw the promised land
A correspondent refers to the last
chapter Of Deuteronomy in proof that
Moses usually beheld the blissful re.
gion, but it was under circumstances
that emphasize the point made against
MIR. Bryan that he ought to be looking
fer a Joshua instead Of Q Moses.

W. II, Thompson Of Grand Island is
said to have refused to be n candidate
for the nomination for governor on the
fusion ticket, giving as his reason for
the refusal that, when the party was in
power and to be nominated almost
meant election, then the party had no
use for him, but now, when there 10 no
hope, they would be glad to nominate
him. What do you suppose is wrong
with such reformers' Is it that their
belief in reform only extends as far as
Office, or did they believe in what they
professed?

Enoch Arden Returns Again.

Mrs. Dennis Sird, well known as a
dressmaker, who resided many years
in Grove St, in Rutland. with Mr..
Sird, her second husband, whom she
married 80 years ago, was startled
this last week by the appearance on
the scene OF James Martin. her first
husband, whom she had supposed to
be dead for - years.
Mr. and Mrs. Martin lived in
Orange, Mass, and had a quarrel.
Martin left home and wandered slowly
to the West, % years ago. Mrs.
Martin received a letter stating that
Martin was killed in an accident in a
western mine. She married Sird two
years later. She has several grown
up children by both Martin and Sird.
Martin heard that his wife was dead
and has married twice since in the
West and has several children living
by each wife. His second wife is
now in Indiana.

Sundry Washington correspondents
are filling space now by writing OF an
alleged breach that threatens between
President Roosevelt and the Republic
cans in Congress. These industrious
individuals make it appear that the
latter are offended at the presidents
domineering, and that they propose TO
block all efforts toward Cuban recipro-
city and antitrust legislation to show
their disregard OF McKinley's success
or. This talk eminates almost wholly
from Mugwump sources, and is enti-
tied to little consideration. The only
hope of the opposition is in creating
internal friction in the Republican
ranks The party was never more
united and harmonious than it is to-
day, and all promises well Tor the

THE CLEMENT BOLT.

Il is practically determined that the
Hon. Percival w. Clement OF Rutland
will repudiate the action OF the late
Republican state convention and will
run independently for governor on a
high-license, local-option platform
It will be remembered that when
about two-thirds OF the Clement dele
gates walked out OF the convention
hail at Montpelier, they marched TO
Mr.. Clements private car and, laying
their grievances before him, urged
him to run for the governorship, re-
gardless OF his impending defeat be-
fore the nominating body then in ses-
sion Mr.. Clement, in response. said
that he would run if his delegates 80
desired But, a few hours later, at a
public meeting of his adherents, while
reiterating his wish to be governed en-
tirely by the judgment Of his support
ers, he advised against precipitate ac-
ton. He told his delegates TO 90
home, think the matter over calmly,
confer with their constituents, and
then. If Il still seemed advisable TO 90
ahead, steps would be taken toward
calling an assemblage Of local-option-
lists representing all parts Of the state
to take action. and in the event of his
then being summoned to the leader
ship his followers could depend on his
serving them as they might require
To many this looked ike a move on
Mr.. Clements part to let his support
ers down easy from their attitude in
boiling the convention, and it was
freely predicted that a. the initiative
was lett with him. Mr.. Clement would
allow things to quiet down and not
carry the threatened movement into
effect. But il seems these prophets

The Usual TaIe of Woe.

CLYDE Joslin, son of F. A. Joslin OF
Northfield. suffered a severe accident
the 4th. He was lighting a cannon
cracker when it exploded, injuring one
hand quite badly.
Hiram Levin of Bennington blew a
finger off one hand while firing giant
crackers.
John HoIlenbach's son of Barre was
made blind by glass from a bottle
broken by an exploding tireeracker.
The bottle was in the boys hand. The
nine-year-old son of Chief Of Police
Brown of Barre was badly burned in
the face by the explosion OF a large
cannon cracker. The little fellow had
lighted the cracker and ii did not eX-
plode. He went to pick it up with the
result that it exploded in his hands.
Patrick Glynn OF Montpelier was
carrying a cheap revolver which went
off, and the wadding Of a 22-calibre
cartridge penetrated the young man 5
clothing and through his skin to the
lining OF the bowels. William H..
Goodnow OF the same city had his
hand badly lacerated, being jammed
between two heavy stones and he mar
rowly escaped losing several fingers.
Peter Bianchi, eighteen years old, also
of Montpelier, about ten o'clock Friday
evening was celebrating with a dyna-
mite cracker, which he was holding in
his right hand. 1t exploded before he
had time to throw it from him after
lighting il and the entire inside OF his
hand was torn TO shreds. lie was
taken to the Heaton hospital where IL
was found necessary to amputate the
hand at the wrist.
The most serious accident to be
ehronicled at the close OF the festivi-
ties of July 4, occurred at Montpelier
