A Forecast.

Perhaps it is little early in the season
for a campaign prophet, but we venture
to make few safe predictions.
The registration will give great salts
faction to the leaders of both parties.
Mud throwing will be severely dis
countenanced by the candidates at whom
the mud is thrown.
a few unimportant kickcrs and sore
heads will break away from our side,
but the other party will suffer large and
significant desertons. The better ele-
ment of our opponents, including many
dyed-n- the-wool party men, who never
voted anything but a straight ticket, will
throw aside their shackles this year and
vote with us for everything that is good.
All estimates made by campaign man.
ayers will be extremely conservative.
The outlook will be particularly rosy.
The people will be so enthusiastic for us
that we will be able to elect a yellow dog
this year. This being the case, it will
not be surprising if we have few yellow
dogs on the ticket.
AS we have already intimated, we lool,
for an epidemic of blindness around
election time.
The other side will be showed under;
otherwise, there will be lucid explana.
ton why it wasn't. If, by any chance
through intimidation, colonizing, fraud
or pure cussedness on the part of the
voters, the other ticket wins, then we will
be found standing shoulder to shoulder
the day after election, doing little rag.
chewing, perhaps, over the question
whose fault it was, but preparing un,
dauntedly for the great struggle of 1901

Suppose the president should write
the message the ants want him to
write, denouncing the army and the
whole people for standing behind it
how would it sound? Would it alter
the status of the Philippines or the
Filipinos? Would it be likely to con-
tribute to the efficiency OF the mill
tary arm OF the government? Would
it in any sense teach patriotism or
self-reSpect in the American people?
Would it draw respect from abroad?
Would not the ants thems selves be as
dissatisfied as ever?

Government statistics from Wash
ington, show that the state of Wash
ington for the year 1901 is credited
with raising the largest number OF
bushels Of wheat to the acre of any
state in the Union. The general av-
erage, all over the state, was 29.I bush
els to the acre-nearly six bushels
more per acre than the general aver
age for the preceding year. 1t begins
to look as though the crop of 1902
would raise the general average about
i've or six bushels more. But then
the people OF Washington have no OBJ
jections, when it comes to such
records as that.

We all wonder what the future has
in store for us, and if we could only
know, we would willingly forget the
past with all its joys aud sorrows, but
neither of these things are possible.
Some things that are past have left
such a lasting impression on our
minds that we can never drive it
away from our memory. We cannot
know the future, but one thing we
can do, and that is, prepare for it. II
we do this thoroughly we will always
be ready for any emergency that may
arise and then we will need have no
fear as to what may come.

Yonder is an old lady, her hair is
quite gray-the snow OF many winters
has driftel through her once raven
locks. Unfortunately she has a
daughter society bud'-whose as
pirations have uever been higher than
sparkling young men on the front
piazza or pounding out rag time on
the piano. Next Monday the old
mother will wash and on Tuesday she
will iron. "DLaghter" must not pat
her pretty white hands in the hot
suds, so she puts in her time playing
"Just One Girl" Will, her mother
keeps time on the board. The girl
might dc the work while the mother
rested, but she scars above these COM
monplace things. She has the soul of
an artist, but she couldn't get meal
to save her artistic soul from perdi-
tion. God pity them both and, above
all things, should lie pity the sooner
who marries the girl.

A Pasco woman claims to do all
her own work and doesn't keep II
hired girl, but investigation shows
that she hires all her washing and
ironing done away from the house;
woman comes once week to scrub
the kitchen floor and sweep and dust
the spare rooms; she has only one
child and and hires all her sewing
done; once day Il woman comes to
wash her dishes, and the family lives
largely on bakers bre,d, store butter,
canned goods and salmon. They at
tend church suppers and take meals
quite frequently at the hotel. She
complains bitterly of being over
worked.

Money is all efficient agency
through which many great things
may be accomplished. but yet we
should never forget that the thing
that acconplishes the most good in
the world is love. The sweetest COM
forts of all things come through this
great agency and it is through it that
we are enabled to sympathize with
any who may be in distress. No man
abhors money, and if it is properly
used it may be the means of bringing
happiness to many, but that sublime
principle OF love will help us to throw
aside all selfish motives and enter into
the true conditions of life.

There are many conditions in life
which must be met, and the great prob
lem of life is to devise some way in which
all these conditions may be met. In
reading of the past and in studying the
many authors we find no other man who
gives evidence of knowledge of all hu-
man conditions as does Shakespeare,
and for that reason he is called the
king of Poets" His originality was
not as great as his power of portrayal
He was thoroughly acquainted with all
sides of life and could see both the bright
and the dark sides, and in every instance
was master of the situation, and could
portray the majestic current of action
with transparency of its plan in way
that if thoroughly studied will be of in
calculable value when we face the real
problems of life. We cannot all be
Shakespeares, but we can have an in
sight into life sufficient to carry us
through if we only put forth the effort.
1t requires constant application to the
important affairs which come up daily,
but this is something that everyone ought
to be willing to do and something that
we can do if we only will. In good work
there is always plenty to which we can
devote our time and if we do this it will
help us greatly in discovering those same
principles which it was necessary for
Shakespeare to discover before he could
accomplish what he did. He never
dreamed himself into his great field of
action but reached it through constant
effort. And by constant effort every
man can accomplish something in the
world that will help to make his name
immortal. Shakespeare's name will be
familiar to every school boy as long as
time shall last. So can we all leave the
world with the assurance that it is better
for our having lived in it.

There are mighty forces constantly
at work in the world. Forces that
are moulding the destiny OF the
human race. There is the physical
force that has to do with nature and
with the conditions relative to the
physical life. The intellectual force
is constantly moulding aud shaping
public opinion on all lines and is de-
veloping the human mind and bring
ing it up to a standard that will be
OF great value to the world in the fu-
ture. All these forces have their
places in the world and will be Of
much use as time moves on, but there
is another force that is mighter than
any of these which we have mention
ed and that is the mora! force. This
has been in the world as long as either
of the Others and has shaped the des.
tiny OF the human race to even n
greater extent than any of the others.
