Messrs. Editors Before this reaches the read
ers of THE UNION Christmas will have been here
and the sweet cakes will have been cut and
passed around, with eggs, or no eggs, since the
"biddies" have put up a trust that the big fleet
cannot even bust.
How quick the pulse of the factories and the
public works succomb to the approaching hard
times by shorter hours. But to go into our near
by stores where the clerical help has been dou-
bled and note how busily they are employed,
early and late, in supplying the wants of us
country people. who seem to have a barrel of
money to spend for good deal of foolishness
apparently to an old fogy)
number of the purchasers do not know what
hard times are as do we who have been through
the panics of 81, of war times, Black Friday and
others later on. How in 81, when specie pay
ments were suspended and dime (specie) looked
as big as a cart wheel. In Baltimore bank
would suspend every day and we would go down
in our pocket for our lank pocket books, which
would almost squeal for emptiness, and sense
of relief would come over us to find we had no
note of that or any other bank.
In 1861 distrust hung over the country like
pail. In the city of Washington went out and
sold newspapers on the streets to raise money to
see the late John E. Owens play Scion Single.
With twenty five golden eagles, "In God we
trust" edged and wrapped up in newspaper like
we used to put up old coppers for the soap man,
had them in my pants pockets and when gold
reached per cent. premium 1 shot them in.
just think what profit l would have made had
lugged them around until gold went up to 1884,
console my loss by my good luck in securing
clerkship with one of my paper customers that
paid me 5000 year for number of years in New
York city.
What profit was there this fall in wheat. But
such is life. The most we dread just now is to
know what a fall awaits us from revealing in tur-
key, cranberry sauce, mince pies, &C., to bean
soup and sauer kraut in a few weeks.

ONE WHO is over polite away from bis home
is generally suspected of being the contrary
when with his family. The man who calls
his wife endearing terms in company is apt to
make her shovel coal into the heater at home
or make her beg for a needed new gown.
There is a good deal of hypocrisy in great
deal of human nature. The appreciation of
others is more potent in determining mans
society acts than an honest heart which finds
most comfort in home love and approval
Now when man establishes home his real
life begins because then he enters upon his
most important duties. All the errors of
youth, the want of purpose even lack ofhonor
and the follies early days may be condoned
and forgotten. But from the date of his mar
rage a man begins to write his real, perma-
nent history-not with pen and ink, but with
actions, home thoughts and words by which
hemust be afterward reported and judged. His
conduct at home, his solicitude for bis family,
the training of his childlen, his devotion to
his wife, his regard for the great interests of
eternity-these are the tests by which his
worth will ever afterwards be estimated by all
who think or care about him. These will de-
termine bis position while living, and influence
his memory when dead. He uses well or i'll
the brief space allotted to him out of all eter
nifty to build up frame founded upon the
most solid of all foundations-priVate worth.

In THE growing effort to exercise some kind
ofcontrol over automobile drivers many expe-
dents have been tried, from ropes stretched
across the road to deputies armed with repeat
ing rifles. In most cases fines for speeding
have proven without the lettering influence
it was fondly hoped they would exert, says
the New York Independent. Many municipali-
ties have long required a bond for certain
classes of licensees, such as auctioneers,
plumbers, pawnbrokers, employment agencies,
dealers in second hand goods, etc. 1t might
be good idea to take leaf out of the book of
such procedure and extend the practice of bond
ing to chauffeurs, whether they be owners of
the driven cars or merely hired operators of
the horseless carriages of our day and genera
ton. San Francisco proposes to lead in a
movement of this kind and to require such
bond from every applicant for an automobile
license. If the penalty for speeding was made
the absolute forfeiture of the license to operate
the arrogance of the auto car owners toward
horse drivers and others would doubtless tend
to decline.

in ITS political gossip last Sunday the Balti-
more 4nlegicdn said: 1.-THE Democrats divide
on the question whether the amendment, in
addition to providing grandfather's clause,
shall also provide an educational or property
qualification. Democratic leaders in counties
where there is a considerable proportion of
colored vote favor a property qualification,
while elsewhere in the State an educational
clause is favored by Democrats. 1t looks as
though caucus may be necessary to settle the
differences. Other political legislation will in
clnde efforts to amend the unjust, the unfair
and dishonest election law in order that the
intention of the voter may be taken into con-
sideration in the count of ballots, that too
many marks for one group of candidates shall
not invalidate the whole ballot, and that more
latitude be allowed the voter in making his
cross mark, so that if the arm of the mark ex-
tends beyond the designated square the ballot
shall not be thrown out"
