The Railroad and the Farmer.

.
 The following paper was read before the Green Forest Horti- cultural Association by A. J.. Russell on last Saturday after noon:
 The building of railroad into the interior of Carroll county the past year has been a great ben eft to the farmer, but in man. her wholly different from what he had anticipated. It has brought to him the necessaries of life rather than hauling his products to the market. Hence the changes wrought in the condition of the farmer for good, so far, have not been very perceptible; but all, of course, on account of the unprecedented drought of the past season.
 It would perhaps be stating it too strongly to say that the ad- vent of the railroad will change the condition of all farmers. The farmer that does not profit by ex- perlence and especially by ob- servation, but contents himself in raising just enough corn and wheat to bread him and scantily feed his COW and horse through the winter, just enough potatoes to last him through the summer, and depends on the fence corners for peaches and blackberries, will be just the same farmer, railroad or no railroad.
 The alert, progressive farmer is one who endeayors to under- stand fully his surroundings, and knows how to avail himself of op- portunitieS. Railroads are only opportunities for him. They may advance the price of his land four fold. But how does that help him? It only increases the taxes without adding anything to it's productive qualities. inc rail- roads may haul tons of stuff to the markets for his neighbor. But how does that help him? The railroads may employ hun- dreds of men that have to be fed, but how does that help the farmer unless he has something to sell?
 Before the coming of tine rail- road the farmer gave attention only to such products as had a value for nome consumption. The railroad has put him within quick and e;isy reach of the mar kets, therefore ne must raise such things as the market demands in order. for him to have business with the railroad.
 One of the first perceptible changes wrought ill the condition of the farmer after the coming of the railroad is the curtaiiing his appetite for large farm. The new conner following the railroad into 8 new country rarely buys a large farm, but prefers to have no larger farm than he can cultivate. In a country where there are railroads, but few men count their wealth by. the number of acres of unimproved land that they own.
 Many farmers in this country are land poor and they do not know what is the matter with themselves. There are men in

PRESENTED THEIR CLAIMS.

T. Candidates for Senator and Rep-
 rese ntative Here Wednesday,. i. ,a K Martin s Hall was filled to over- anowing Wednesday afternoon to ,, hear the candidates for state sen- ,ssf ator and representative present m their claims. Although the en- 5, tire afternoon was consumed by s the speakers, each one was ac- corded a respectful hearing w. R. Phillips was the first to speak. He reviewed briefly some ' of the things he had accomplish $ ed while serving the people in < the lower house. He favors z Publishing the office of county examiner and creating instead E the office of county superintend- ent. Favor8 abolishing the Of flee of county assessor and have Instead an assessor for each Township. He opposes the creat- ing of chancery courts at the ex- pense of the whole state, unless the number of judicial districts are cut down.
 He said he was willing to risk the judgment of the people in de- ciding whether or not they would have a stock law. He is in favor of putting representatives on 8 Salary, but opposed to increasing the salaries of the officers of Car roIl county.
 c. A. Fuller reviewed some of the principles of democracy as Taught by Jefferson and thought Mr. Phillips was making breach oi these principles by asking a } fourth term. He spoke at some length in opposition to the stock law He criticised Mr. Phillips vote on this bill as well as several other measures.
 Dr, J, ". Poynor declared that he was unalterably opposed to the stock law and to the agri- Cultural bureau. Opposes the fifth Amendment for the reason that he fears the legislature would make the salary of the legislators too high. Favors building state capitol but on a different plan than is now proposed. He wants some changes in the road law but favors road tax, and uniform text books and is opposed to a re- form school.
 w. F. Jackson opposes the stock law but is very much in fla yor of a reform school. He fa- vors the enactment of law that would enable county officers to make their bonds in a surety s Company. Favors consolidation of elections and the abolishing of the board of equalization, and would require land owners to be y qualified to the lands valuation.
 w E. Phillips had few min Skutes in rejoinder in which he an swered the criticisms of his oppo- nents. Each of the candidates were vociferously applauded Throughout.
 F. o. Butt opened the senator ial discussion. Anticipating the criticisms that would be urged against his record by his oppo- nents, he reviewed briefly the lneasures on which they criticise ed 8 him, and on each brought forth Ia hearty applause of approval. He then reviewed the various measures he had introduced and Y showed by the county salary act alone he had saved to the people of Carroll county more than S3,- 900 annually, thereby gradually decreasing the county $ indebted ness from Sl9, ,O00 GO less than $5,- DUO at the present time.
 N. J. Carlock referred to his < own record during the past four yetlrs in the senate and defended his position in voting against the fellow servants bill. He showed

INVENTOR HAS ODD SCHEME.
covered More Effective Method
Of Firing IA Cannon.

Army ordnance officers have been
asked to give their attention to con,
slider remarkable invention of an
Ohio man, who believes he has dis
covered something which will CON
tribute to the dradlincss of arma-
mcnt. The model which is submitted
was nickel-plated affair, sufficiently
convincing in its operation in miuia-
ture. The inventor places six guns
between upright wheels, Snspendiug
them after the manner of the car
riages in the Ferris wheel.
by = simple mechanism different
angles of fire, the same for all the
guns at one time, may he obtained.
1t is proposed to rotate the guns,
loading the guns in succession from
a conveniently placed platform, The
inventor believes that any caliber Of
gun mly he placed in his wheel. He
had left to the experts, however, the
details of construction and such
problems as the distribution of
weight. By the most casual calcula-
tions it was found that the l2-inch
guns which he proposes to be thus
placed and his wheels would weigh
3,00O.O 900 pounds. This does not take
into consideration the axle and the
other incidental mechanism.

device put in practice at a political
meeting in New Haven, to shut off
bothersome questions from the audi
ence about the tariff and the Trusts,
1t was eiiectual, of course, and is
likely to have many imitators. who
will heartily regret that the plan was
not developed earlier in the cam
paign. why should the Trusts
have tariff protection" "Sing
America and talk about the
war" why should home. made
goods cost more here than abroad7''

free coal, free hides and free wool?'

INDIAN TOLD HOW
he KILLED CUSTER.
Appearing Elk Slew Commander With
TOmahawk.

Philadelphia, Oct. pa former
Sioux chief, now an Rpiscopalrector,
the Rev. Philip Daloria of Flora, :.
D., who is attending the council of
Protestant Episcopal Church here,
said to-day;
1T was only n year ago that |
learned the true story of the death of
Gen. Custer | had been the means
OF converting IN old warrior named
Appearing Elk.
Unlike most Indian braves, he
was not much given to hoasting of
his exploits, but | knew that he had
Ia ken many scalps.
Appearing Elk became n iervent
hristian and one day, after he was
baptized and taken into the church,
| asked him to tell me of his expert.
en- ces in the battle Of the Little Big
Horn,
Every Sioux wants to know who
killed Custler and that was my first
question, Twas surprised when the
old man replied i did.
81 felt pretty sure that Appearing
Elk told the truth. drew his story
from him in detail, and this is what
he said;
'Wehad surrounded the last clus-
ter of soldiers when my pony was
shot from under me. When got on
my feet discovered that | had been
wounded. Suddenly u man in blue
doomed up in front oi me- knew he
was the big chief. &
He was swaying like drunken
man from exhaustion and loss OF
blood because OF many bullet and ar
row wounds.
90 ielled him with my tomahawk
and then sat on his body to be sure
that | should not be robbed OF my
spoils.
In order to make doubly sure, |
took the revolver from the holster OF
the dead man and stuck it in my
belt.
81 didn't scalp the man because
his head was shaved, and | was
ashamed to take a mere piece OF
skin
Il knew positively, continued Mr..
Daloria, that the revolver taken by
Appearing Elk was subsequently
identified as Clusters, and SO far as [
have been able 70 learn, Custer was
the only man in the command who
had his head shaved.
Appearing Elk died last spring.
There are thousands of people, sui
fering untold torture from piles, be-
cause Of the popular impression that
