Where Is Ruhe2

Don't laugh at the man from
the country who comes to town
without a patent leathery shine,
That team Of his has it on their
harness.
Don't give him a merry ha-ha
because he wears a five-dollar
suit, 1t is paid for, and he hates
tailor bills worse than the devil.
Don't laugh because he gapes
at the horseless carriage. Ten
to one you wouldn't know a
harrow from a hayrake or an
Ayrshire from a Holstein. Don't
swell on yourself and call him a
pumpkin because he cuts the
sweat from his brow with his
forefingers instead Of silk wipe.
That sweat fertillzes the ground
sixty bushels to the acre and feeds
the world. Go out in your 10x6

PLEADED IN VAIN.

One OF the sharpest debates
recently witnessed in the United
States Senate grew out Of the
effort of Senator Vest to hav G a
bill removing the duty on an
thracite coal, in accordance with
the Presidents recommendation,
reported from the finance com
mittee. In terms made thrice
eloquent by the feeble condition
of the speaker, which would not
permit him to stand without the
support of his desk, the Senator,
for the second time in one week,
pleaded the cause of the poor and
needy. He begged his opponents
for the sake of humanity to aban-
don partisan considerations and
pass a measure "offered by a
Door Democrat" but calculated to
tighten the hardships of the old
and feeble and OF little children
who wept because of the cold.
He urged the Republicans to rise
above the sordid consideration of
vested interests and partisan
policy and act for once solely in
the cause of humanity, but his
words fell upon deaf ears.

pill, and then look at the farmer
and pity your self, He doesn't
even know what the word in
digestion means. Give him q
dictionary and he would think he
was looking for Latin quotation.
True his boots are headed with
the dew of dawn, and his shirt
damp with the moisture of the
cleaning but his soul is as sound
as the great tree that shelters his
stock in the open.
Crowded, yes; some times the
barn cries enough, and he stacks
beside it. And when the lean
year comes and the world is
chastened, when homes are
wrecked and suicide made by a
stroke of the ticker, when panic
is in the air and proverty pinches,
when the black flag floats to a
peaked wind, when the cry for
bread goes up from the great
cities when they steal to keep
from starving, then he kills a big
hog and is happy, and his wife
innocently throws the liberal
sweepings from the table to the
chickens. Envy the farmer

Burned To Death

Miss Cora Metcalf, the fourteen
year-old daughter of Joe Metcalf,
met with a painful accident Mon
day from which she died Wednes-
day night.
She was kindling a fire in the
kitchen stove and in some man.
ner her clothing became ignited.
She became frightened and started
to run out in the yard. Her
sister started to her rescue, but
the frightened girl outran her.
The father, who was in an adjoin-
ing room, heard the screams of
the unfortunate girl and grabbing
a quilt off the bed, started in
pursuit. He succeeded in catch
ing his daughter and, wrapping
the quilt around her extinguished
the flames, but net until the
unfortunate young lady was
horribly burned.
Her clothing was almost entire
iy burned from her body and she
was borne to the house and
everything possible done for her
that could be done by skillful
and willing hands,
Her condition, however, was
such that she was beyond the aid
of human skill and on Wednes-
day night death came to her

MURPHY Is AFTER DAVIS.
The Attorney General Minces no Words
In Densuneins the Governor.

Attorney General W. Murphy,
who with Governor Davis, Secre-
tary OF State Crockett, Auditor
Monroe and Agricultural Com
missioner Bradford, compose the
state penitentiary board, so
severely criticised by Governor
Davis in his message delivered TO
the Legislature yesterday, gave
out tho following statement last
night:
"It is a fair sample of the
governors egotism and disregard
of truth. To those who know
him it Would have been surpris-
ing had he foregone the oppor-
tunity afforded by his right to
deliver the message, of remain
ifesting his two principle
characteristic traits of cowardice
and disregard Of truth. His
statements in reference to the
purchase of the convict farm had
in them only one truth, that was
the fact that we purchased it
over his objection,
ellis insinuations come from
his cowardly nature. He knows
that the purchase was a good
one, looking to the interest Of
the state, and knew at the time
that it was advisable. The trouble
with him was that it thwartt d
his purpose of foisting on the
state the Hayward farm. the
lowest, wettest, most unsuitable
farm ever offered to the board,
lower by far than the lowest part
of the Beakley farm, which he
falsely says would have been
bought but for him. Though the
acreage OF this farm was but
about half that of the one pur-
chased, it was wet, low and flat,
and from eight to twelve miles
from any stream into which 1t
could be drained, and though
the other members of the board
gave him conclusive reasons as
to why it was unfit for a convict
farm, could not be utilized as
such even if donated to the state,
he undertook tc administer a
course of verble abuse to them
for refusing to join him in his
purpose to foist it upon the state
at S87, 800, and would have done
so had not prompt admonition
touched the heart of his cowardly
nature. He did not see fit to
allude to this purpose OF his, or
to explain why he entertained it.
He may hereafter be called on to
do so.
"He assumes that he is and
should be the whole board, not
withstanding the law, in making
the auditor the chairman, made
him its head.
"He, forsooth, is above the
law. The law-making power
committed agreat error when it
made the auditor president.

for his official associates tools
that he can control, | think |

time to express.

Higgins was unwarranted, and
based on false reasons. 1t was
only when Higgins refused to ap-
