The most important action of the day
was the reversal of the license vote from
yes to no after license has been i'm force
two years. In 1908, the first year of the
local option law, the town gave a majority
173 for license. Last year this lead was
reduced to the narrow margin of 16 votes.
and on Tuesday the town spoke en-
phatically against the conditions which
have prevailed, the vote being no III, yes
562, or a majority of 149 against license.
Both sides were confident of victory and
during the last few days previous to the
meeting betting had been even on the
result. Teams were run throughout the
village to bring the no-license vote. while
the license element had spread posters
broadcast urging a yes vote on the ground
of reduction of taxes.

when I went to Geo. E. Greene's drug
store and asked him if he knew of any
thing to cure backache he handed me out
a box of Doan's Kidney Pills. l positive

through my kidneys and loins. I was
subject to attacks for years, some of them
so bad that l was if not confined to bed
at least to the house for days at a time
Latterly the aching was almost continual
and there was added to it trouble with
the kidney secretions, undoubted proof
that my kidneys were in very disturbed
condition, despite the fact that doctor

American war fame, was killed by the
explosion OF six sticks OF dynamitein
his balloon while !, 500 feet in the air
His wife and two children we're In the
crowd OF 5000 persons which saw
the accident. Baldwin was giving
daily exhibitions at the fair. He
would ascend several thousand feet
in the air and explode half a dozen
sticks of dynamite at different times.
He had mounted 500 feet in the air
and his balloon was soaring as grace
fully as a bird.
While the thrilled crowd with heads
uplifted were watching, there appear
ed in the sky, where the balloon had
been, a great cloud OF smoke. Sec
onds later there came down a great
boom from the clouds. The smoke
obscured the view, but those who
could continue the watch saw frag.
ments Of the balloon falling. Bald
win had been blown to bits by the
explosion. His body was picked up
and removed to a morgue.
Baldwin's wife screamed when she
saw the smoke, long before the ex-
plosion, for her practiced eye told
her OF the tragedy which had occur
red in the clouds. She fell in a dead
faint before the vast crowd had real
lied what was happening.

II has become fact that large msjori-
ty OF farm hands Of the present day take
little or no interest in The success OF their
employers beyond their ability to pay them
their wages. One cause Of this state OF
things is the fact that they are less inclin-
ed to be conteuted 10 one place than those
Of 80 years ego; and the result Is they
Grange too frequently for their own good
or the best interests OF their employers.
1t is slmost impossible for farmer to
find hands who will work faithfully unless
he is constantly with them. To this fact
every farmer can testify. The employer
being away the hired man takes 1t easy and
when he returns and Gays, II expected you
would have done coed deal more than you
have" be receives for reIly. 81 have been
busy all the time" This may be true as
the hired man locks at It. But II the en-
ployer had been present one-third more
would have been done.
Farm hands like to do seine soldering
and stopping to hear year spun. There
are ftw really trusty hired men; teams are
used harshls aud Improperly fed, unless tie
eva of the owner Ia upon them. The great
need OF The farmers is trusty help and the
lack Of such help makes uphill work for
the farmer.
