The Next Congress.

A democratic House next November
would go far to check the progress of
the country by largely destroying conf
dence in the future. 1t would indicate
change where no change is desired.
1t would promise political revolution
where revolution would be disastrous.
1t would be taken as storm signal by
the rich and poor alike. Manufacturers
would have no ground upon which to
base estimates as to future work, cap
italists would have no faith in the con-
tinued prosperity of the country. APP
prehension would prevail where faith
now controls and the preparation for a
change would do much to precipitate a
financial and an industrial reaction.
Every man, whether employer or EN-,
ployee, working by the day or the hour,
working for others or for himself, every
man who believes that the conditions
now prevailing are better conditions
than those that prevailed in 1896, should
see to it that his vote and his influence
are cast against the election of demo
cratic congress next November. Louis.

Bought Forty Acres of CLAY.

The Portland Cement Co., of Detroit.
has installed steam shovel in their
clay beds east of the city and will soon
be ready for business. The work of
gathering clay to be shipped to the com
pany's plant at Fenton will soon make
Kerby busy center. About twenty
cars of dirt day will be shipped from
there, while the force of employees will
increase as the work advances. About
seventeen feet Of dirt will be excavated
before the clay combination can be-
reached. AS the clay tract covers 40
acres the supply is not expected to be
gathered in short time which will
make the work valuable to the mer-
chants of Corunna from a financial
standpoint -Corunna Journal

Beet Sugar Expansion.

Wisconsin reports the first fruits of
the practical efforts to reduce the tariff
on Cuban sugar through the instru-
mentality of so-called reciprocity
measure. We have the announcement
from Milwaukee that the Wisconsin
Sugar company has closed contracts
with citizens committees from nine
counties, whereby the company agrees
to build beet sugar factory in each
county. The farmers, on the other
hand, agree to plant 1000 acres of beets
for three years in each of the counties.
The only proviso, on the part of the
company, is that no reduction shall be
made in the present sugar tariff. The
nine factories provided for will cost
about 100000 each, making a total of
81, 500, 900.
This prompt action of the beet sugar
interest in Wisconsin, based on the
prospect of failure to reduce the sugar
tariff, gives an intimation of what may
be expected in California. The beet
product of this state has been proved to
be superior to that of all other states in
essential qualities. If that Cuban reci-
procity scheme can be made to down
for good the beet sugar industry of
California would eventually rival that
of Germany. Los Angeles Herald

Mrs. Austin's Quick Lunch Tapioca.
Ready in minute. Your grocer can
supply you.
James Westfall, who has been drill
ing we'll for Col. John Northwood,
near New Lothrop reports having
struck a vein Of brine at depth of $50
feet. The fact that the brine pumped
up is almost pure makes it very valu-
able well. From a gallon of the brine
Mr.. Westfall boiled down he got eleven
ounces of clear salt. This is something
that cannot be done with any of the
Saginaw brine, as it is mixed with 9th
er chemicals. Col. Northwood will get
heavier machine and go deeper with
the well and see if he cannot get pure
water, as that is what he is after. In
case he should strike more salt he may
be induced to put in plant and secure
the salt.-Chesaning Argus.
Many are fond of Tapioca, but dislike
the trouble of soaking it. Use Mrs
Austin's Quick Lunch Tapioca. No
soaking.

Great Scheme For Rural Candidates

A Kansas candidate for a county
Office has introduced novel and what
seems to be very useful plan of cleo
tioneering. In his rounds he takes with
him in his buggy competent plough
man. When he halls farmer in the
field the ploughman takes the plough
or cultivator and the work goes right
ON, while the farmer stands in the
shade of the hedge row and listens to
the tale the candidate tells 1t works
like a charm. Some farmers would
rather be talked to for whole day in
the shade than plod in the new field be
hind the implement.

organization of the army after he re-

In performing the task of effecting the

The democrats have not yet called
their congressional convention for the
eighth district, and there are rumors
chat no convention is to be called,
that leading democrats admit that it
h practically useless to make a fight
against Mr., Fordney, and that money
and time can be saved by making no
nomination whatever. The Courier
Herald is not disposed to regard the
rgmors as entirely authentic. 1t knows
chat leading democrats are practically
Of one mind as regards the hopelessness
Of making a campaign against Mr..
Eordney, but their chances as regards
the rest of the ticket are equally hope
less. They will, however, place ticket
Ia the field in order to keep up show
Of organization and to assist their coun-

Parkill, of Shiawassee, has been quite
prominently mentioned, but Saginaw
democrats do not take kindly to this, as
they desire Saginaw man on the ticket
tnr the good that it will do to the nomi-
pees for county Offices. 1t is said that
r. NJ Eiler is willing to accept the nom
nation if the party will put up the
dough. and it is not unlikely that there
ere others willing to make the sacrifice
for the advertising to be derived from
