KnoSledge aud true statement OF
the circumstances which may hamper a
public man in his efforts is need of the
critic aud it may be good policy to "play
fair" for Truth finally comes to the res
cue and brings confusion to the careless
or libelous critic. Those who seek prestige
aud lasting influence in this class Of
work should realize that animadversion,
ungenerous illusions to matters distinct
from the public service, and evidence Of
self interest as a sole motive, are al
points that tell-against the critic.
In every case patriotism should CONT

We sometimes are amazed at the man
who almost in silence persists in raising
his opponents bets, as if challenging his
staying qualities. His countenance will
give out no sign as to whether he is
bluffing, Or holds a royal flush. His
quiet self possession is remarkable. We
wonder is Columbia trying to bluff the
President, or does she really hold a
strong hand. This may be an enigma
Certainly on her side are the senior
senator from Alabama, the projectors of
the prospective North and South Ameri-
can Railway, and, automatically, all
the anti United States supremacy ma,
tions of the world. 1t now looks as
though it might be a contest of the long
winded orators and politicians.

Mrs. Mollie Allen, of South Fork, KY,
says she has prevented attacks of cholera
morbus by taking Chamberlain
Stomach and Liver Tablets when she
felt the attack coming on. Such attacks
are usually caused by indigestion and
these Tablets are just what is
needed to cleanse the stomach and ward
off the approaching attack. Attacks of
bilious collie may be prevented in the

Now comes the story, on the author
ity of a prominent politician, that
Windsor county will have four candi-
dates for the Republican nomination for
governor before the state convention
meets. He may be mistaken, of course,
and it is hoped that he is. At best, the
warn is but one of the midsummer trivi-
alities that must pass for politics until
the canvass opensin dead earnest, but,
for all its frivolous aspect, it serves to
emphasize the possibilities under the alb.
surd "mountain rule" that limits TO
seven counties the choice of a governor
for the whole state and thus literally
forces the candidacy of second-rate men
1t does not stand to reason that Windsor
county to- day has four men of such un
doubtedly pre-eminent qualifications fol
the governorship that they will divide
their home county between them, and
if they were forced to compete with mel
of statewide consequence, the chances
are unlimited that at least three Of then
would never be seen in the race.-St
Adams Messenger.

ANGLES LETTER.
Criticism of Public Men.

"Happy are they that hear their de-
fractions, and can put them to the
mending."
Every thoughtful man who under
stands the responsibility of each voter
living under democratic form of govern
ment, will admit that fair and intelli-
gent criticism is an Indispensable factor
in the perfection of the public service.
Who should assume this office Those
whom fate has placed in a position to
gain the attention of the greater num-
Der in each community can with pro-
priety undertake this duty. While it is
not incumbent upon these to do so, and
they can see clearly enough that if will.
full men will drown themselves it is no.
bodys business but their own; as also
if men knowing the danger will take
the road which must bring disaster tc
themselves and sorrow to others, it may
be wise to think of self interest first
still conscience may dictate a more
worthy course.
Certainly those who publish criticism
will grievously offend a few; but as thu
writers are striving to earn the approva
of the just, the generous, and intelligent
only, and they perceive that this can I'll
timately be won, in view of such a re
ward, acknowledgements are easily en-
dured.

Others, in which men sooner or later re-
veal their true disposition and purpose

that the most intelligent men of the day
either fail to realize this, or they fail to

In many of the leading journals OF
the day we read, from time to time
articles from the pens of political critics
that denote careful research and consc

The articles of Henry Loomis Nelson
are specimens of courteous and effective
partisan work. He has seemingly de-
voted much of his time to a study of the
work and capabilities of President
Roosevelt. Mr.. Nelson's deductions
will of course be considered, and those
in position to do so will--if they think
it necessary-deal with his statements.
But he is by no means an ''insignificant
force In one article he carefully en-

this by the statement of "socialistic
tendencies" 'impulsivehess," qualities

Twenty-one kinds of mangoes CMan-
gifera Indica) though perhaps there
are not that many distinct varieties,
were exhibited yesterday in the Win
dows of the Pacific Hardware Com
pany by Gerrit P. Wilder There were
nIangoes of all kinds, from the diminu-
tive ones to the largest specimens
found in the city; also from the most
dainty ones in taste to the stringy and
hairy fruit fit only for thieving youth.
Perhaps the central feature of the
display, in interest at least to those
who have seen the fruit at it's best and
admired it sufficiently to study its
characteristics, was the really fine
specimens of No. II. This mango,
having no other name, has been for
more than a century one of the most
esteemed varieties and though there
are known to Mr.. Wilder only one tree
here still there are many others which
have been so called. There are a num-
Der of other CRAFTS, principally those
of Mr.. S. VI. Damon, who has imported
from India of the best kinds, but these
are still young trees.
The No. II has an interesting his
tory. The mango is supposed to be a
native of South Asia or the Malay
peninsula and is first known to have
been imported into the new world in
I742 or '43, as told in a natural his
tory of Barbados. There was nothing

done seemingly with the cultivation or
the tree at that time.
In 1882, Capt Marshall, of Lord Rod
ney's squadron, captured French yes
sci bound from the island of Mauritius
to Santo Domingo, that had on board a
number of valuable plants, among
which was the mango in the form of
grated tree. There were several
specimens, and these were taken to
Jamaica, where they were planted in
the botanical gardens of Mr.. East in
Gordon Town. Two kinds, one label
led No. II and the other labelled No.
80 have been of the best known kinds
since, the latter being the most popu-
lar, and they have never been given
other names.
In a late publication of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, on the mango in
Porto Rico, of the No. IL it is said that
this is still the most popular on the ISL
and fine fruit though rather stringy.
and tits said to come true to seed. 1t has
been identified with the Refine Amelie
of Martinique. AS the Martinique man
goes must have come from the same
gardens as those which found their
way to jamaica the constancy of the
fruit is clearly proven. The fruit has
been spread over the world from ia
maica, Florida having many speci-
mems of the No II as budded stock.
In the case of the tree at the home
of Mr. Davis at Punahou, the tree is
from a seed brought here from Jamaica
by brother of Mr.. Davis, and has since
been one of the most prolific bearers
of fine fruit.
Mr.. Kirk Munroe, who is one of the

of them on his home in Florida, has
sampled the mangoes here and has
pronounced some of them of very fine
flavor.
Mr.. Wilder when the specimens were
in good condition had them photo
graphed. as in the cut which gives two
views of the No. IL specimen, the side
and end views. He will preserve these
and add to the collection whenever he
is able to find a new variety or an
especially fine fruit.
