fine baby, nobler to keep shop than to make a happy home; that it is greater to write novelettes than to tell fairy stories to her children: to sing in an artificial fashion in a public hall than to sing charming nursery ditties to her little ones at home. Now this, to our mind. puts the responsibility Just where it belongs, so far as womans s refusal of marriage obligations goes. Of all the cant that is canted in England and this country to-day, there is none quite so cantish as that which demands of every woman career. Let a girl have as much knowledge as she can carry, let her develop herself in special direc- tions. even, when she feels. the impera- tive necessity of so doing. but let her keep it ever clearly and simply before her that all this Is less than the best, inasmuch as the highest sphere for a woman Is eternally the home and the noblest duties unquestionably those which have to do with happy domestic life. Womans real interest and happi- ness do not consist, and never have con- sisted, in the number of lines that draw lIOtlI5 tue nOlilS LO 5blAcA OAtSlSC NOtANg but in the multitude of avenues by which she may bring the best from the world without to illuminate the home. And this, because it is eyerlastingly 1 true, cannot be repeated too often. The married woman who puts higher val- ue upon her friends book or picture than upon her own beautiful baby is traitor to what should be the most sacred thing in her life. As we think, so we are. There is immense need that the world of women should hold the have always set the standard for men right thought about the home. Women in these matters. and it can scarcely be expected that when the gentler sex declares column of newspaper praise of achievement finer than the sweetest privileges of home men should value domestic bliss above club luxury.

THE DECLINE OF MARRIAGE

In England, it appears, no less than in this country, the growing tendency of men and women to defer marriage until late in life, and then, perhaps, keep voluntarily for all time beyond the clanking of matrimonial chains, arouses vigorous interest To the Brit Sish mind two causes for the phenome- non stand out distinctly. The first is the growth of luxury and the second the emancipation of woman. The former deterrent, it is pointed out, is a tremen- dous one, inasmuch as the love of ease and luxury has so strong a hold on most men that they are not disposed to sacrifice for the attainment of domes- tic bliss any of their pleasant bachelor comforts A popular novelist of the empire states the things as follows:
 .sWhereas a single man of twenty-five of SO with a small income, can have q considerable amount of solitude and amusement, a household with $500 a year ($2,500) has little of either. It is more or less at this point of income. I imagine that the difference between single and married life is most marked and least supportable. A bachelor with the amount named is rich man, but marriage and children would mean pow erty for nin---real, genuine poverty, upper boxes at a theatre, instead of stalls, etc. The man may give 1t all up quite cheerfully and marry; but as lux ury and love of luxury. increase, he will be always less inclined to do anything of the sort So much for the English view of mans share of responsibility in this grave matter, Now for the woman's part: We teach her that it is more creditable to create medi- ocre book or picture than to produce g

a great deal of trouble in obtain

ers, and even under this offer
has found it impossible to Secure
as many men as are wanted.
Notwithstanding the fact that
laborers are in such urgent de.

idle men in Columbus, and any
one who will take the trouble to

FRAUDULENT METHODS.

It has been openly charged
and conclusively proven by
democratic papers in the East
that both the govern ment
machinery and the United
States mailsare being fraudulent
~ used in the interests of the
republican campaign, and addi-
tional proof of the fact Is found
in card recently received by
one of our local merchants. The
card, which bears the official
frank of United States Senator
J. III. Galliger, contains extracts
from a speech delivered last
April by Senator Spoouer, of
Wisconsin, which begins with
this declaration: THE president
has, l think, more efficiently
enforced the anti trust law, all
all things considered, than any
or his predecessors
1t is we'll that Senator Spoon
er qualities his assertion with
the words, all things consid-
cred, )" for if we consider the
fact that the trusts have con-
tributed most generously to the
republican cam paign fund and
have done all in their power to
re. elect Roosevelt and to pam
per his mate vanity the senator
is not very far wrong As the
recognized leader of the party
Roosevelt has done only what
was to have been expected in
turning the offices of the govern
ment over to them and allowing
them to make laws to suit them
selves.
The idea that Roosevelt has
ever taken any action which
would lead to the disintegration
of the trusts o. which would
even have a tendency to displease
the trust magnates is simply
preposterOus, and no one who
has followed his career will for
one instant believe such a state
ment.

Politics in the Hill City, Vicks-

pal fight on there and the admin

utterly. For a long number of
years city politics in Vicksburg

fame is shown to be richly deserv-

The National Committee Issues Card
Claiming That All Discussions Are
HeaIed-AII Working Harmon
iousIy for Success.

New York, Oct. %. "A state
ment has been given out by the
Democratic National Committee,
after a consultation between
Thomas Taggart, Chairman; VIM.
F. Sheehan, Chair man of the Elk
ecutive Committee, and Delaney
Nicoll. Vice Chairman for the
East. 1t says:
We have made no formal state
ment concerning the political
situation before this time, be-
cause the materials upon which
alone a correct judgement could
be formed were not at hand. Our
efforts during the past three
months have been devoted to the
task of organizing and harmonic
ing the party in the States hither-
to considered doubtful by reason
of former dissensions. That
work is now finished. and it is
possibla for the first time, toreach
a conclusion based upon a sys-
tematic canvass, which can never
be satisfactorily made until after
organization is com pleted and
the campaign has well pro-
crossed.
In every State. and in all
sections, Democrats have buried
their differences and are working
tremendously and enthusiast
cally for the ticket. Our canvass
shows that scarcely anywhere is
there trace of dissensions
which for the pasteight years has
unhappily divided the party. In
the States of New York, New
Jersey, Connecticut, Indiana,
Maryland, Delaware and West
Virginia, and in many of the
Western States, our organiza-
ton is now more complete and eff
f ctive than ever before in the
history of the party. Candidates
for Governor who stand for the
very highest type of citizenship
and represent popular local Dem
ocratic issues in all the doubtful
States are greatly aiding the
national ticket by their energetic
cam paign.
Our canvass shows that we
shall certainly carry by good ma
jorities the States of New York.
New Jersey, Connecticut, Mary
land, Delaware, West Virginia
and Indiana, and in addition to
these electoral votes we shall
have the majority. if not all, a the
electoral votes of the Hockey
Mountain States. 1t is impossi-
BILE at this juncture to predict
the outcome in Wisconsin.
Illinois must also be classed
in the doubtful column, for al
though at this moment our can
vasss there is imperfect, it is
sufficiently advanced to indicate
an unmistakable Republican de-
lection.

Mems Earnings in Maine.
he Bangor (Afe.l News

From the Bangor tMeD News.
It has been learned that the average In
come of a man in Massachusetts, Is $l.1O
day for 300 days in the year. This makes
a gross revenue of $3.50 year. out of which
sum the Garner must pay living expenses,
taxes, and all bills as they come due. and In
addition, perhaps, must care for and pay
the expenses of supporting family Oh
three or four persons From available sta
tistics 1t Is inferred that the earning of the
Maine worker is somewhat below that OF
the Massachusetts, citizen-perhaps as low
as $4OO a year. To offset this shrinkage, the
Maine resident pays less rent, the land he
buys is much cheaper by the acre, he can
build his home more cheaply, he can fur
nish it for about the same amount OF
money, his taxes are lower, and while he
has fewer Iuxuries than does his fellow in
the bay state, he has more room In whlcn
to turn around. and his general manner OF
life is more healthful and enjoyable. A
large proportion of our citizens are farm
ers, and 1t has been found very hard to get
the Maine farmers to make accurate state
ments as to what they earn. They are
willing enough, but few take into account
the vegetables. eggs, meat and fruits which
are grown on the farm and eaten by the
family. No account Is made of the labors
OF the women and children. who comprise
the farmers household. The cash trans
actions-the money paid out for help. sup
plies and machinery. and the money that
are known to nicely, but the running
cost, which makes up most OF the expenses
Of existence, is omitted from the bill when
the farmer draws up his balance sheet.
Hence, the average farmer tnihks ne - =
working for very small pay though. IN
fact, he Is doing much better than Is his
neighbor who works for day wages ana
who buys everything.

Early Operations for Cancer.

From the New York Herald.
Sir Felix Semon, the London throat spe-
cialist, in a paper presented to the laryn-
geological section of the New York Acad-
envy of Medicine and published In the Her
aid of yesterday, touched upon a topic of
great interest to the public. especially IN
connection with several notable instances
of cancer of the larynx adams apple) that
have occurred in distinguished personages.
We need but recall the cases of the late
Gen. Grant, the late Emperor Frederick
and more recently the now happily I'M
founded anxiety as to the probabilities IN
the recent affection of the present German
emperor.
The learned specialist apparently teaches
a new lesson to his confreres in advocating
a restricted local operation on the parts
affected rather than the wholesale ext1rpa-
ton of the windpipe and contiguous parts
This implies, of course. the earliest posi-
BILE recognition of the disease, when limited
operations are likely to be successfui. The
same rule may apply to all cancers.
When however. the disease has obtained
Roadway and has extended into surround
ing tissues all opportunities for cure are
apparently lost. The reason why Sir Felix
Semon has been so successful is doubtless
due to the fact that he applied his remedy
in it's inception. This, after all. is the doc
trine which must appeal to the victim If he
would have any hope for permanent recov-
cry. Cancer in the beginning Is always
local disease, and 1t Is much easier to ex-
tinguish a spark than to fight flame.
The surgeons say that most cases OF malig-
nant disease come to them when radical
can be too watchful or seek advice too
| early.
