have anything to do with nephew
that acted as he did, and his brother,
he said he'd got nieces enough without
another one added, and be never spoke
to her from the day she held out
against bis father. So they two moved
away, and left the old folks to settle 1t

and the young folks are back ut his

Coincidence to Be Avoided.

Democratic papers are calling at.
tention to the fact that since 1887 Nc.
Kinley was the first president to have
Congress in sympathy with him dur
ing the middle Of his presidential
term, and now President Roosevelt
has the same advantage, OF course
they give us good advice, and we
can neither be too thankful for the
same nor too careful not to follow 1t.
1t might not be amiss to say to
them, in a spirit Of kindness, that IL
the people ever forget the hardships
Of 1896 and again entrust Demo-
Gratis with the government, they
should be careful not to get at the
same time a Congress composed Of
calamity howlers and a President
who hates the industries Of his coun-
try. They then might expect to live
long enough to see another Democrat
in the White House,
