Does Politics Pay7


The bank officer stood with
knotted brow and worry was writ
ten plainly on his face. Talking
with him was IL well known man
whose reputation as politician
extended beyond the borders of
his own county. He had held
offices many. but he wanted loan.
The bank Official was battling be-
tween his desire TO help his friend
ard his duty to the stockholders
who had put their funds in his
care. The office holder had reach
ed the "just personal favor"
stage of entreaty and the bank
man was perplexed indeed. The
loan wanted was only n small one
and for short time but there
were past due notes in the bank
already and the man responsible
for the institutions funds could
not bring his conscience and judg-
ment up to letting more 90.
just then u young farmer came
in. He wore overalls, Il hickory
shirt, slouch hat and carried with
him the smell of the feed lot. The
total cost of all the raiment he
wore would not equal that paid
for the politicians trousers alone.
The banker smiled and asked the
young man what he could do :or
him.
II need little more money for
corn to finish up the hogs said
the son of the soil.
"How muchl"asked the banker
reaching for the bank notes.

"How long!'
"They will be ready for market
about the first of the month. -
''Better make it thirty days
then
The note was made out, the
farmer signed it, the banker
counted ont the money, less the
exchange, the young man put it
in his pocket aud walked out.
There were tears in the poll
ticiun's eyes and quiver to his
lip. He wished right then that
he had gone to raising hogs in
stead of being n statesman.
The mistake of trying to make
II living out of being great dawned
ON him with awful force when he
came to compare his credit with
that of the young farmer.
W hen that young man reads
his county paper he sees the name
of the politician in it dozens of
times to where he sees his own
once. He has read of how faith
fully he has served the people in
the trusts and honors that had
been thrust upon him. lie has
read how that man has gone out
and held the people spellbound
with hts orutory. He has read
of the gatherings of the factions
and leaders at the big city hotels;
and that mans name WAS among
them He has seen how the men
who ''do things hive taken into
consideration where that man
would stand before determining
their course.
When the convention gathers
the young man reads how that
man was escorted to the platform
and of how the convention cheered
and yelled at his bright sallies of
wit and his vehement denunciation
ot the opposition. Perhaps the
young man was sweating in the
burrows of the corn field while the
politician was wipIng the sweat of
oratory from the burrows Of his
brow.
The politician conld sway the
throng where the young man would
scarcely know how to get into the
convention hall. But when i,
came before the bank official the
young man had the power and
could do the swaying. Topeka

FOR CONGRESS, LIST District,
HON. WILLIAM A. JONES,
OF
RICHI1OND co.

Ex-P-esident Cleveland's activity
and interest In politics at this time is
attracting attention among all class
es of politicians throughout the
country. He advises Democrats, Ito
set aside all other questions at this
time and unite upon tariff revision and
readjustment as their slogan before
the Republicans pounce upon and
seize that as Republican doctrine"
The advice may be good and doubt
less is, as the campaign this year is
being conducted along the lines ad-
vocated by him by many of the
Democratic leaders, but now that
Mr. Cleveland has spoken, many
Democrats who accept with suspic-
ion any advice which he may give
will doubt whether it ought to be
the real issue. His advice may be
given with unselfish motives, but so
many look upon bin as the wrecker
OF his party in his past, that it is
hard for them to believe that he
cares for the success Of democracy OF
would do anything looking to that
end unless his own interests were
thereby promoted.

Hon. William A. Jones, the Dem
ocratic nominee of the First district
for Congress, opened the campaign
on the Eastern Shore at Eastville 90
last Monday. In the beginning of
his speech he referred briefly to the
silver question and in connection
Herewith commented at some
length upon the injustice done by
many in censuring Mr.. Bryan, who
followed his leadership in two Presi-
Dental contests. The new Consti-
tuition too was discussed and for the
most part commended by him, but
his speech was devoted chiefly to the
policy of the Republicans toward
trusts, the Philippine question and
the many crimes committed by the
representatives in our territorial
possessions. The speech was an ex-
cellent one, received the closest at
tention and ELECTED the applause OF
the large audience in attendance.

A scheme Of education, which the
Baptists OF Virginia have had under
consideration foT some time, was
practically determined upon by the
education commission OF the Baptist
General Association, which met in
Richmond Tuesday night. The re-
suit Of that meeting will be, il the
scheme is put into effect, "a big
university in Richmond for girls with
feeders throughout the State and a
system OF boys school in Virginia,
all conducted in connection with
Richmond College, This step or
some other one seems to be necessary,
II the Baptists would keep pace with
the other denomination Of the State
in their work along educational
lines.

Chairman J. Taylor Ellyson an
nounces, that reports in regard to
registration throughout the State,
show satisfactory results to the
democrats and that he expects the
democratic nominees to carry every
district by very large msjorities.
That Mr.. Ellyson is correct In the
conclusion at which he has arrived
will hardly be questioned even by
any republican Of intelligence in the
State. Too few of the colored voters,
upon whom they have relied for sue
cess in the past, succeeded in getting
their names on the registration
books to give them any hope of poll
tical success now or hereafter. With
the colored contingent eliminated to
the extent which it has been, OF
course, they do not expect it.

The end of the great strike of the
miners seems to be in sight and the
Indications are that it will be settled
in a way which will be to their in
terest, If not entirely satisfactory to
them. 1t may take a few days to
adjust the differences between the
operators and miners, but the nego-
tiations now-pending, it is stated,
will surely terminate it. That the
victory ought to be on the side of
the miners there can be no question,
II the statement made as to the
wages received by them and the days
they are allowed to work is correct
Any man prohibited from working,
as it has been proven the miners
were, more than 179 days in a year or
earning more than 1886 would think
that he had grievance which ought
to be righted.

Obituary.

In memory of Carroll 8. Tilghman,
the son of 8. @. Tilghman, who died
at his home, 3001 E. Marshall St.,
Richmond, Va, October 10, 1901.
o, how bright our little sunbeam,
On the road alone,
But an angel came and whispered,
Little Carroll thy work is done.
He's gone from earth, yes gone for
ever,
Tear-dimmed eyes will gaze in vain,
We shall hear his voice oh, never,
Never more on earth again.
Home is sad, oh, how dreary,
Lonesome, lonesome every spot.
Listening for his voice till weary,
Weary for we hear it not.
Farewell, dear Carroll, We loved so
well,
The parting scenes no tongue can
tell,
But on that high and happy shore,
We hope to meet to part no more.
By his loving mother,
Mamie 8. Tilghman.
