HANNA AND RATHBONE.

Senator Hannas intercession in
behalf OF Rathbone, the convicted
embezzler Of Cuban postal funds,
does more credit to his heart than
to his head Senator Hanna is
frankly Rathbone's friend for old
times sake. For years Rathbone
was his loyal henchman in Ohio
politics and particularly in the SEN
atorial hgh. of 1898, when Senator
Hanna stood in dire need of all the
friends he could rally, Rathbone is
reported to have done him staunch
service. For this Senator Hanna
says, "I'll stick to Rathbone and
do everything in my power to help
him out of his trouble"
But when Senator Hanna takes
the bench Of his own motion to re>
ject as worthless all the evidence
accumulated by the experts OF the
postoffice department and to over
rule the decision of the Cuban
court, his zeal makes him ridicu-
lous. He has not read the evil
dence yet, but that will be produc>
ed in due time, he promises. In
the meantime he gives his word for
it that Rathbone was not guilty of
dishonesty. He merely spent the
Cuban postal funds upon his per-
sonal living expenses. For that

A MAN WITH A MISSION.

Colonel Watterson may not al>
ways be able to propose or fore>
shadow the ultimate policies Of his
party, but he is a good hand to stir
things up when he takes a squirt OF
intellectual activity. When politics
are quiet there gets to be an un>
wholesome state of gushing amen
ity between the great parties of the
country. 1t is a first principle of
our form of government that the
parties should always be in antag>
onism. Harmony is a nice thing
to talk about, but it is the sort Of
stuff which destroys home rule,
centralizes government. subordi>
mates the civil to the military pow>
er, and ultimately changes republics
into monarchies, or at least, brings
about an equivalent in the shape of
Boss rule. We welcome Colonel
Watterson to the field oi commo-
ton, whether he is always right in
his views or not. He is a useful
man, and performs with a grace Of
rhetoric and an unimpeachable
honesty that make him a force as
we'll as an ornament. When the
democratic and republican leaders

THE MAN BEHIND THE PLOW.

For years without number the
man behind the plow has been the
butt of the city joker. With his
tangled whiskers, his carpetbag, his
rawhide boots, his 81 swan and
"Du tell" he has been laughed at
wherever a comic paper or a col.
ump or humor existed. But there
is serious, a substantial side to
the farmer if one chooses to look
for it. The bulwark of the nation
in times of peace or war, any coun>
try would fare ill if the plow
were left idle in the furrow, the
mower to rust in the field and the
thresher to fall to pieces in the
barn.
Statistics of the value of the ex>
ported farm products of the United
States, recently issued by the Gems
sus department, present in striking
form the worth of the agriculturist
as nation builder and a nation
keeper. No other industry comes
even close to it. The billion dollar
steel trust is insignificant by com
parison: so are the sugar trusts
the Standard oil monopoly, the
beef trust and every other combs
nation of capital that has been de-
veloped in recent years.
In the year 1901 foreign coun>
tries purchased from the United
States agricultural products that
aggregated 100000 in value.
That is over S5oo,ooo,ooo more
than our agricultural imports ag-
gregated. The figures are almost
beyond human comprehension
Articles raised on the farms OF the
United States show a balance in
trade in favor of this country
amounting to more than half l bill
lion dollars. Let this seep into the
minds OF city people who are wont
to smile at the funny paper farmer
with his gold bricks and his other
peculiarities.
Cities don't amount to so much
after all, do they2 The figures
quoted, mind you, do not include
the products sold here at home

WOMEN AND JEWELS.

Jewels, candy, flowers, man-that is
the order of a woman's preferences.
Jewels form magnet of mighty power to
the average woman. Even that greatest
of all jewels, health, is often ruined in
the strenuous efforts to make or save the
money to purchase them. If woman
will risk her health to get a coveted
gem then let her fortify herself against
the insidious consequences of coughs,
colds and bronchial affections by the
regular use of DR.. Boschees German
Syrup. 1t will promptly arrest consump-
ton in its early stages and heal the
affected lungs and bronchial tubes and
drive the dread disease from the system.
1t is not a cure-all. but it is a certain
cure for coughs, cold and all bronchial
troubles. You can get this reliable
remedy at w. H. King Drug Co.'s three
stores. Get Green's Special Almanac.

Mason Thinks She Should Have Got
the Temple
Especial to News and Observer

Especial to News and Observer
Greensboro N. c., Aug. 15-Of course
there is disappointment here at failure to
get the Masonic Temple. prominent
Mason here had the following to say to
this correspondent concerning the mat
ter: 1--WE are assured that the city maxi
ing the best offer would get the temple
regardless of pulls or sentimental influ-
ences resolution to this effect was
adopted by the committee at Oxford In
perfect good faith, the Masonic commit

Helms to Grand Master Clark at Colds
boro on August 18th, scaled proposal
which was definite, liberal and SO far as
| can see far ahead of the intangible
promise made by Raleigh, which was ac-

the second mortgage bonds; TO raise $25,-
600. and to furnish a splendid site on
Main street with a frontage of los feet,
depth of 100 feet, lot valued at $35 900.
While we recognize the right of the COM

saw fit, it does seem strange that in face
of such an offer from Greensboro, the
report should be authoritatively circula-
ted that Raleigh made the best offer and
for that reason alone secured the tenn

Especial to News and observer
Greensboro, N. c., Aug 15.-DuriDg a
heavy thunder storm here yesterday just
before night lightning struck the resi-
dence of Mr.. ]. M. Bandy on Carr street,
and almost completely demolished the
ten-room building. The dining room and
kitchen, forming an ell, alone escaped.
The chimney was torn down and the
weather boarding all over the house is
drawn out by the nails as if giant
charge of gun-powder had shaken it
apart. Furniture in every room was bro
ken or shattered and paper in one bureau
drawer was set afre. There are two
large holes. In one room it goes from
the plastering outward as if made by a
cannon ball, in the other room the stroke
seems to have come from the outside.
The whole building is a wreck, though
standing as if nothing had happened ex-
cept for the breaks referred to and the
toppled chimney.
Mrs. Bandy and her daughter were in
the house alone, and were stunned. Their
escape from death is a marvel.
