PRIZE WINNER WAS FAKER.
Potatoes He Entered at the Fair Were
Purchased From Grocer.

Potatoes re Entered at the Fair Were
Purchased From Grocer.
There is more than one way of win
ming prizes at country fair. When
the rubber neck from the city looks
over the agricultural curiosities in
the big tent and sees the gigantic
pumpkins and huge potatoes he ma
turally thinks these we're brought to
such proportions by careful gardening,
nursing by the farmer who enters the
exhibit. But this isn't always true.
One Of the prizes for big spuds at
the Wolcott fair went to man who
came in from Watertown way, bought
some choice potatoes at a market,
took 'em out to Wolcott and copied
one of the prizes. He didn't even
know what kind Of potatoes they we're.
The day before the fair the farmer
went into a Waterbury market. He
looked over the stock and saw one
basket of potatoes of extraordinary
size. His eyes glistened and he
picked out half dozen of the largest
in the basket.
what kind?" he inquired.
The clerk didn't know one potato
from another. but he said: "Why,
those are 'Johnson's Beauties"
The spuds were duly labeled and
shipped to Wolcott. The Watertown
man got one of the prizes in walk
and all the cult stood about him at
the fair and complimented him upon
his fine crop of potatoes.
1T must have taken a lot of care
and good soil to raise potatoes that
size," they all remarked. And that
wise farmer said it surely did.

An Invention with pnssihiliries.

In this day Of air ships. automobiles
gyrOscOpic railways. submarine boats.
wireless telegraphy, and whatnot. we
should carefully refrain from showing es-
pecial emotion. perhaps. when new inven-
tons are thrust beneath our observation.
We cannot view otherwise than with sin
cere alarm, however, the latest offering
derived from scientific investigation and
cast upon a trusting world by a Dr.
Marage. Of Paris.
This invention is nothing less than a
mechanical attachment designed for light
houses, by the use Of which the human
voice, or a clever imitation of the same.
may be thrown as far as a ship may be
seen on the horizon. In connection with
the subject. a Chicago paper says:
The invention, BY Dr. Manage an ear specialist
Of Paris, is not a phonoTaph or anything like Il.
but an exact imitation of the human throat and
mouth, with en- or pump for lungs
Teeth, lips, iawbones and all are Initiated er-
actly Or. Manages small model hardly app-eciably
larger than the normal human mouth can be made TO
utter a faint whisper give vent 70 ear-split-
ting ysll such as no man ever made
With a mouth sir feet from corner 70 corner, Il
is estimated that the artificial voice could be under
stood from three 70 six miles away according to
weather conditions
The invention. doubtless. is frelghted
with infinite possibility for good. Kept
within fit and proper limitations, It may
be hailed with exceeding Joy We do
hope. nevertheless, that it Is properly pat
ented, copyrighted, and legally protected
from misuse for We can conceive of many
horrible things that might happen TO man
kind were it TO become generally and In
discriminatory used Suppose. for in
stance. Mr.. Bryan. Senator Tillman. Mrs.
Nation. numerous ChautauQua stars-Mr
John Temple Graves. for instance-or
other highly priced but slightly verbose
American assets were equipped with this
attachment? Suppose that John Wesley
Gaines should procure one? Where would
we be then?
Suppose the campaign spielers who are
destined to hold forth during the next
Presidential mix-up should apply to the
national committees for these instru-
ments? Wouldn't It be something fierce?
Anarchy, riot, revolution, bloodshed, and
destruction would stalk abroad from
Maine to California. There would be no
peace anywhere.
Like an anaesthetic. or an opiate, this
invention has its good points. But 1t
needs to be very carefully guarded
against misapplication, just as they must
be guarded.

LESSON IN SPECULATION.
Inside Information Not Such a Good
Thing as IL Seems.

From the New York Times.
The evidence regarding the leak OF
the governments cotton crop report is
highly cautionary TO those who think 1t
quick and easy road to fortune to buy
the information which is so freely offer
ed for sale both publicly and privately
II IS in testimony that those who have
such information. even when II is ac-
curate, cannot reckon certainly upon its
market effect In one case Il Is sworn
that the highest talent in the Street new
er had a chance Of profit In another
case. where moderate profits appeared
neglect TO take them turned the operation
into a loss. In still other cases profits
were realized but only by methods which
are repugnant TO honest men.
These considerations are apart from
the routine considerations that commod-
ity speculation is more hazardous than
speculation In securities on general princi-
pies. Operators in stocks at least know.

cases Of surprise, what quantities Of
shares exist, and are sure that the

These revelations that the cards are

as anybody are nevertheless mere guess
ers and gamblers, rather than investors
or even reasonable spectators. ought to

THE PRESIDENTS POSITION.
jamestown Speeches an Expression
of the COuntry's Conscience.


From the Richmond Times Dispatch.
The President denounced socialism
strongly. but many Of his positions are
those regarded by conservative people as
socialisuc. His general principle is that
the rich and fortunate should be required
By law to bear the heavier burdens Of
administering the government and 10
share more adundantly and regularly
than heretofore In lessening the penalties
Of poverty and misfortune In this he ex-
presses the trend OF modern thought and
conscience. Many Of the owners Of our
great fortunes act in that direction by
pouring out their money for the relief
and uplifting Of the poor The point is
that the very people who are willing 10
give thousands and hundreds Of thou
sands of their own free will for public
purposes or the relief Of personal dis
tress might object most strongly to being
required by law 70 do H. or anything
Ike Il.
We think. however, that the general
common sense Of the country will agree
that something must be done 10 pre-
vent or check the accumulation Of inor-
dinately vast quantities Of money in a
few hands, 70 provide against destitUtion
for the families Of honest and industrious
werkingmen killed OF permanently dis
abled in the performance Of dangerous
duties and risking their lives 70 earn
their livings. and the indiscriminate use
Of the cheap labor Of children and women
70 the deprivation Of citizens who should
be bread-winners and the heads Of we'll
provided families. The details of applica-
tion Of these principles. Of course. will
demand much careful thought and scrup-
ul0Us guarding Of the rights and interests
Of all concerned.
