MEANS OF SUPPORT.

The Grover Cleveland organ Of Chi
caco represents the shameless menda-
CITY and malignant hatred OF the whole
tribe tow I'd Bryan, "During thu last
eight years." says this organ in its issue
of the Goth, "Mr. Bryan has had no
visible means of support. He has
travelled extensively. He has not done
a DAYS work in any honest occupation.
He has had no business. He has not
e, EN- pretended to be lawyer. Yet in
that time lie has grown ricn." To read
ers who know the facts, the foregoing
statement is 60 transparent lie, that
it must defeat it's own pu' pose.
man whose extensive travelling is
for the most part as lecturer com.
manding and everywhere conceded to
be deserving ii high pay, and whose
daily work consists in editing a weekly

600 copies and is his own property
through no ones favor, is not to be re.
garded by candid men, however hostile
their feelings, as an idler who has grown
rich without visible means OF support.
But if the Misrepresentation Of the
Chicago Chronicle are made 60 blunjer-
ingly as to be self.destructive, that is
not the case with the equally mendaci-
Gus criticisms with which Eastern pa
pe,s of the Cleveland cut stuff their
gullible readers. Yet it all has its fur ny
side. The gullers pretend and the gulled
believe that Bryan, whose popularity
throws them both into spasms OF fear.
is an innocuous "has- been"! Ry the
way, speaking Of getting rich without
visiLle means Of support, why are the
friends OF Mr.. Cleveland so reluctant to
explain that enigma in his behalf?

PETITIONS VS.. REAL.

At Oltott Beach, N. Y, before the
Niagara County Pioneers Association,
last week David B. Hill spoke on "Ficti.
tions vs.. Real Prosperity" The follow
ing extract from his speech gives food
for thought to the thoughtful:
"There is chorus OF assertions, con-
stantly reiterated, that the country at
the present. time is enjoying a period of
much prosperity. Yet there are rea.
sons for doubling the entire correctness
OF the statement. 1t is conceded that
many public works are in progress of
construction, and many important en-
terprises are in process OF development,
but the fact must be borne in mind that
most of these schemes are being foated
upon borrowed capital, that the future
is being largely mortgaged, and that
profits to hereafter accrue, and divi.
dend to be hereafter declared, are al
ready being anticipated, and there is no
adherence to the go ID, old.fashioned
and safe doctrine Of paying as you 60.
Commercial centers seem to be look
ing to Congress for some sort of finan.
cial relief, the exact nature Of which is
not stated twice alike. We are informed
that the details of the proposed measure
are not yet wholly perfected, but it is
announced that its principal feature il
in substance an authorization of the
lending by the Government to National
banks Of the surplus in the Treasury of
the United States upon approved Sc
curities. The financial situation must
indeed be desperate when such expedi-
ents as lending the peoples money to
corporations is suggested, rather than
relieving the people from the taxation
which has produced the accumulation
OF the surplus, and which accumulation
has largely caused the present congestion
of the money market :"

One Of the reasons the general fund OF
the city is at such low ebb is the method
pursued in making street Improvements.
The city has no more right to build
street intersections and crossings than it
has to pay for the improvement OF the
center of block yet thousands OF dollars
have been paid out OF the general fund
for tho e purposes within the last few
years. In improving a street, the block
should be measured from the center OF
one, cross street to the other, and the
cost distributed pro rata against the
property in the block.

Quite number OF the base ball fans
went to Cent'alia, yesterday, to root for
the Aberdeen team. and the boys declare
they saw the game OF their lives. 1t was
anybody's game all the way through. At
the close of the ninth inning they were
tied. The end OF the tenth. eleventh

call the game on account of the approach
of darkness. The game will have to be

later.
HOQUIAM vs.. OLYMPIA.
The HoQuiam team was scheduled to
play two games, OH its home grounds.
with Olympia, yesterday. One to decide
the contested game, and the regular
league game. The Hoquiam club de.
cided not to play the contested game
over again, and conceded it to Olympia,
probably to still have kick coming.
They put up great game OF ball. how.
ever, in the afternoon. With the mem.
DRY Of that conceded game burning in
their bosoms, the Hoquiam lads played
the best game they have so far exhibited
this season, and the Maroons were de-
feated with the score OF to3.
This leaves HoQuiam trife ahead
for the pennant, with ten games won
and six lost, while Aberdeen has to its
credit nine won and six lost. The PEN

JEALOUSY AND PRIDE.

There is a little jealousy in all per-
sons, and especially in all women. II
springs from deep love which always
desires to be first in the affection of
the one beloved. A lover, whether man
or maid, who is not susceptible to occa-
sional twinges of jealousy is not truly
in love.
While jealousy, considered with ret
erence to its origin, is not an ignoble
emotion, it is frequently absurd in its
outbreaks. A father is sometimes up
set with jealousy because he imagines
that his wife loves the children more
than she loves him. Mothers are fire.
quently jealous of the husbands Oh
wives of their daughters or sons.
Wives become jealous of the sisters or
mothers OF their husbands. No one is
immune against the little green bacilli
of jealousy.
Generally the tears or frOwns OF jeal-
'Ousy are swept away with a few kind
words and a caress, but there are some
unhappy persons whose jealousy is
chronic and who make themselves RI
diculOus and annoying by their fits and
storms of jealous passion. The jeal-
ousy of such persons is beyond reason
Indeed, it is a form of dementia which
begets every sort Of violence.
Pride is the strongest controller of
jealousy. The theologians reckon pride
among the seven deadly sins, but as
matter of fact pride is at the bottom
OF much of the virtuous action in the
world. Pride is the root of most BRAY
cry, fortitude, courtesy, magnanimity,
generosity, charity, perseverance, pa
thence, IOnganimlty, humility, and in
dustry. Pride is the essential spirit
of thorough breeding, and in spite Of
being enumerated among deadly sins,
pride is not connected with turpitude.

Woodchuck Farming.

Farmers who have made the expert
ment have come to the conclusion that
there is no money in growing skunks
for their pelts or in rearing Belgian
hares for the markets. In the case
of the skunks the trouble began when
the price of peltry went down so that
a good black skunk was worth no
more than $1.50. AS not more than
one skunk in % is black, the business
did not pay for the care bestowed,
says the New York Sun. The Belgian
hares thrfved and multiplied nearly as
rapidly as potato bugs, but the trouble
came when the owners tried to sell
their output. While there were GUS
toners to buy hares for breeding pur-
poses there was a fair income to be
had, but as soon as the surplus animals
were killed and put on the market it
was found that nobody had any par
ticular yearning for Belgian hare meat,
and the new industry languished for
want of financial support.

er: the etandcned skunk pens and
deserted rabbit hutches into pens and

workinn the Onion Field.

In working onions much labor is
saved if the land has been freed OF
stones and weed seed and rolled as
level as possible. Rows marked and
sowed with perfect regularity by a
machine sower are much easier to take
care of. Too many farm market gar
dens are still worked without a wheel
drill and hoe combined. Some gar
deners stick to the old shuttle hoe
which does good work, but is much in
ferior to the wheel hoe. The single
wheel hoe is best adapted to farm con-
ditions. After the plants are up atten-
ton in time is the main point. Weed
ing comes in the busiest farm season,
and delay in wedding is a common
cause of failure. Go through the rows
early and often with the hoe, and al
ways a few days before it seems neces-
sary at first glance. The wheel hoe
is easily run before the soil has time
to settle. Soil too hard to hoe quite
easily is too hard for the onions. Lit
tie weeds die quickly. Big weeds
turn over and start with the next
shower. If they once get ahead the
crop is likely to prove improbable.
Hand wedding can be done by boys if
looked after. 1t is better TO hire by
the hour and watch the boys, than to
pay by the row and get poor work. If
there are any obstinate shirks, they
should be discharged as an example to
the others. Three hard weddings
we'll done should be enough. The crop
when ripe is lifted out with a shovel
fork and left on the ground a fort
night or so to dry, and then placed in
barrels or racks in a dry cellar which
is cool, without freezing, in winter.
The common causes of failure with
onions are poor seed, late sowing, soil
not made rich and fine enough, Guilt
walton too seldom and weeds left too
long.

NOTES.

That there is good profit in raising
poultry in connection with small fruits
has been repeatedly proved. Fruit
needs the most attention when fowls
need the least. The only trouble is in
so arranging the yards and plants as
to keep fruit and fowls apart. In the
case of the orchard. fowls are an al
most constant benefit. All bearing
plum trees we have this season are in
our poultry yard. They may be more
sheltered than outside trees, and
parasites may have been destroyed.
The trees have certainly been enriched
and also cultivated because We feed
the scratchers in there.
Always give horses water before
feeding, whether morning, noon or
night Do this because a horse will
digest his food better, be stronger and
will last the longer for it. Collie or
acute indigestion, a common and often
fatal trouble with horses, is avoided by
watering before feeding. But three
times a day is not often enough to
water horses, when at work and in bot
weather. Five or six times a day is
not too often under such conditions and
the horse is better, fresher. and can do
more without injury to itself if watered
often.
The efforts made by the beet sugar
countries to greatly lessen the acreage
of beets, after it was agreed in the
Brussels conference to abolish boun-
ties on beet sugar, seem to have been
nugatory. The International sugar
statistical association has published a
table which shows the area planted
this season to be larger than last
Germany has planted 1000 902 acres,
which is per cent. less than last year,
and Russia 1,476.106, which is 51s per
cent less. Russia, hiwever. was not

Facts for Our Farmers.

chucks. The fur is good for many
purposes, and the meat is much better
than that furnished by any of the rab-
bit tribe. Though woodchucks do not
produce more than or 10 offspring in
a year, the young grow rapidly, many
dressing &C much as S or 10 pounds
when Is months of age. The animals
are hardy, and will require no housing
beyond what they can provide for
themselves. 1t is estimated that an
acre of land sowed to peas in rotation
will feed 500 woodchucks through the
season. As woodchucks are, by the
promoters of the scheme, estimated as
worth 80 cents a head in the fall when
they are fat, this will make an income
of $3.50 a year from an. acre of poor
land at a very slight outlay of labor.
An advantage in rearing wood
chucks is that it costs nothing to
keep them during the winter. Every
farmer works through the summer TO
provide winter food for his stock. His
cows. horses and sheep eat into his
silos and lay mOws, his hens and pigs
dispose of his grain, and if he keeps
Belgian hares they must be fed on
chopped clover, grain and vegetables
/ from the middle of September TO June
II. A wOodchuck goes into winter
quarters late in September and does
not emerge until May 10. thus saving
it's winter feed. More than 200 acres
of land in northern PenObscot county,
Me-, it is said, will be devoted to
woodchuck culture the coming season.
