Benton Advocate, June u: The New
Deal aud Kennedy mines stand a
good show in getting a switch run
from the Northwestern railroad to
their mines. Monday, by agreement
the railroad officials met the directors
of the two mines and went over the
grounds and held a conference at the
mines The railroad officials ex-
pressed considerable surprise in the
properties owned by the petitioners,
not having any idea that these mines
were capable of the output claimed
until after an inspection. While no
promises were made it is almost GER
tain that they will report favorably to
the project. Hazel Green represent
atives were also on the ground and
asked that the "stub" be extended to
their place.
Surveyors for the railroad company
arrived yesterday and are at work
laying off the ground, which is con-
elusive evidence that the companies
Interested are to get their switch.

FLOWER AND TREE.

Palms never live more than $50 years.
Ivy has been known to live 400, chest
nut $50, oak 1000 and yew $3.50 years.
Nothing is better for house plants
than to be set out in gentle. warm
rain, but n cold rain and wind are any
thing but hopeful to them.
In planting trees an important point
not to be forgotten is pressing the soil
down upon the roots so that they will
come in close contact with 1t.
A pot of flowers in bud should re-
ccive all the sunshine possible, but
when the buds open keep them in
shade, and they will last longer.
The largest apple tree in New Eng
land Is in Cheshire, Conn. Its trunk
measures one foot above all root eX-
largcments, Is feet inches in circum-
ference.
An orchard, whether young or old,
should not be allowed to grow where
heavy crops of grass are taken every
year. 1t is weakening to the soil and
detrimental to the trees.
In Ashanti there grows a tree resem-
bling in appearance the English oak,
which furnishes excellent butter. This
vegetable butter keeps in perfect con-
dltion all the year round in spite Of the
heat.

THURSDAY, JUNE 10, 1902.

In a letter addressed to Hon, A. i
Warden, Chairman of the Democratic
State Central Committee, National
Committeeman T. +. Ryan says:
at is Of the gravcst Importance
that Wisconsin Democrats be guided
in preparing for The coming campaign
by the best judgment and sense within
the party and that each individual
does his share towards attracting vot-
ers to the party instead Of trying to
drive them from IL. ! would suggest
that 1t is the duty, ~ ! view It, Of
every Democrat to keep his hands of
the Republican quarrel, to keep out
of their caucuses and conventions and
not allow themselves to be induced,
by one faction or the other, to mix
or NEEDLE in that trouble.
81 sincerity believe that the business
interests, and progressive men Of this
state, regardless OF their party afilia-
tions in the past, will see the absolute
necessity Of supporting the Democrat
ic ticket in the next campaign, If we
make judicious selections of our can
didates and adopt n concise, plain,
simple, unequivOCal and emphatic
platform, covering the immediate is
sues before tho people in the state. "

Seriously Injured.

Richlaud Republican, June -: Last
Saturday morning while working
around a cream separator Leon
Doudna and Hart Truesdalo received
injuries which will perhaps main
them for liio, The separator while
running Mt a terrible speed burst and
fragments of the machine flew in all
directions, One large piece struck
young Doudna on the knee crushing
the bones in frightful manner.
Trousdale also received u blow on the
knee and although his injuries are
not so severe as Doudna's he will
perhaps be lame for life. Tho sides
of the building were riddlod by pieces
OF iron.

The Nicaragua canal bill IL before
the senate for consideration. Senator
Morgan and other friends OF the
measure are making II strong fight for
it's passage; but Senators Hanna and
Spooner and other powerful spirits
in the Republican party are trying to
defeat 1t by substituting II scheme to
buy out the French interests ut Pana-
ma. TO provide for the construction
Of the Nicaraguan canal, with the
sole and exclusive privilege Of com
munication between the two oceans,
vested In the United States, was the
purpose Of Stephen A. Douglas and
other early Democratic statesmen,
With that end in view Mr.. Ilise, who
had been sent to the Central American
states by the Polk administration,
negotiated " treaty with Nicaragua.
This treaty tho succeeding administra-
tion Of Zachary Taylor withheld from
the senate, and afterwards negotiated
Groat Britain the Clayton Bulwer
treaty, which Douglas declared at
the time, formed the foundation for n
partnership between the United States
and Great Britain and other Europ-
can countries. This partnership has
been partially If not wholly dissolved
by the llay-PaunceIotc treaty. But
for all that we may not have Near
aguan canal after all. There Is "
good deal Of danger that the UNDER
taking may be set asido for the French
project at Panama, which SO far has
proved o great failure,

FARMER JOE'S SPEECH.
1t Was Short, but 1t Crushed tho
BumptIous YounEstcr.

1t was snort, but III SrUsheu thS
BumptIous YOunEstcr.
"You may get the better of an oppo-
nent in debate" said an old time ora
tor, "by sheer force Of convincing argu-
ment-that is to say, you may score
and win on points-but If you want to
put your man down and out at a single
coup just make him ridiculous. Only
succeed in doing this, and all the logic
of the other side will explode in Vacan-
cy like so many blank cartridges.
"Once when | was serving term up
the state in the legislature a bumptious
youngstcr who had just been introduce
ed was laboring through his maiden
effort. He was attacking a man who
was his senior by at least score and
ten years and thought to make hit by
referring TO him rs that little gray
beard from Hcrkimer.' Rymal of Mag
ara rose to reply. lie was an old timer,
who never spoke unless he had some
thing to say and so was always sure of
an attentive audience. Farmer Joe, as
hC was 'hil'hJ EOt W. SlON ~ Sl'buuiiJ
expanded himself to his full height Of
g feet H. thrust his left hand behind the
tails of cnpacious and somewhat
shabby frock coat, held up the index
finger Of his right hand, cleared his
throat ominously and solCmnly began:
"'Nlr Speaker, the honorable gentle
man who has just spoken has never
read Popc's essay. If he had, he would
remember that the "soul's the standard
Of the man." And, sir, fifty such souls
as that of the honorable gentleman
who preceded me could be put into the
