THE YOUNG TO THE OLD.
BY Gale Young Rice.

by SSIC IOuIlS ISlCC.
You who are old,
And have fought the fight,
And have won or lost or left the field,
Weigh us not down
With fears Of the world, as We run!
With the wisdom that is too right,
The Warning to which we can not yield
The shadow that follows the sun
Follows forever
And with all that desire must leave un-
done,
Tho as a god 1t endeavor,
Weigh, weigh us not down!
But grid our hope to believe
That all that Is done
Is done by dream and daring
Bid us dream on!
That Earth was not born
Or Heaven built of bewaring-
Yield us the dawn!
You dreamt your hour-and dared. but
Would dream till all you despaired Of be.
Would dare, till the world,
Won to a new wayfaring,
Be thence forever easier upward drawn!
From the American Magazine.
We want no flag on Haunting rag
For liberty to fight,
We want no blaze Of murderous guns,
To struggle for the right.
Our spears and swords are printed words,
The mind our battle-plain;
We won such victories before,
And so we shall again.

THE OMNI-PARTISAN PLAN.
The Winner Must Stand by his Party
and Compromise and Partial or


Total Failure is the Result.
BY advocating that each man stay
in his own party and work for the
nomination and election of candidates
favorable to saloon suppression, the
effect, says the Intercollegiate States
man, is to prevent union and to keep
the temperance forces hopelessly div
ided among all the parties. On the
lied and, ignoring provisions Of pri-
to overcome the efforts Of the divided
temperance men.
The Omni-Partisan plan does not
aim to become identified with any one
party. The parties thus have other
issues which they place ahead Of pro-
hibition and this issue is made sub
ordinate. They need the liquor vote
to succeed on their other issues and
make bid for it. It is to the interest
Of the party to hold the liquor vote
and the Temperance vote as well. The
successful candidate has been elected
as party man and must work for the
interests Of the party which has
placed him in power. The party sys-
tenn still maintains it's hold. Men re-
presenting party elected to power
by these divergent constituents can
not possibly represent both. The re-
suit is a compromise with small, local
or temporary gain, or none at all
This is the result not only in the at
tempt to secure legislation but the
same principle in electing executive
officials results in a vacillating policy,
now of enforcement and now Of non
enforcement, which is very unsatis-
factory.

NEW DEAL IN NORTH DAKOTA.

In a personal letter to Attorney Cen

the law on the western slope must close.

THIS TELLS YOU
HOW TO MIX IT.
Directions to Prepare Simple
Home Remedy.
Tells You How to Overcome
Rheumatism With Simple
Recipe.

A well-known authority on Rheu-
matism gives the readers of a large
New York daily paper the following
prescription, which any one can easily
prepare at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kragoan, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking well in bottles and
take teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime.
He states that the ingrediens can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and, be
ing of vegetable extraction, are harm
less to take.
This pleasant mixture, If taken reg
ularly for few days, is said to over
come almost any case of Rheumatism.
The pain and swelling, if any ,dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in
juring the stomach. While there are
many so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, etc., some of which
do give relief, few really give perma-
nent results, and the above will, no
doubt,be greatly appreciated by many
sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores of this
neighborhood elicits the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the druggists
here will mix the prescription for our
readers If asked to.

HE'S CERTAINLY
BIRD" Horse.
Kentucky and Tennessee Drummer
Has Sized That Points
Like a Dog.

Glasgow, KY, Dec. 20.-Mr. w. ID.
King, a popular dry goods salesman
who travels through Southern Ken
lucky and Tennessee, and who is per-
sonally known to every merchant, ev-
cry hotel man and many of the citi-
zens scattered over his territory, has
beautiful pair of horses, which he
drives on his trips and which perhaps
are without an equal anywhere. They
not only make a stylish appearance and
are much admired for their beauty,
but Dan, the lead horse, has remark
able traits that make him quite out
of the ordinary. He is what might
be termed bird horse" for he is
able to scent and set cOvey OF birds
as accurately as a well-trained bird
dog. When this trait in Dan was first
noticed his owner was rather unwilling
to believe that the horse possessed the
instinct, and rather credited it to ac-
cident, but as Dan kept up this practice
from time to time his master was I'M
willingly forced into the belief that
Dan was real bird horse"
For instance, the team might be 60
ing along the road at lively trot
when all at once Dan will come to
sudden halt and make point, and
you always rely on finding a covey of
quail not far away.
After the fact became evident to Mr..
King he secured a gun which he car
ries with him and in making his trips
across the country he kills numbers
of birds, all on account of his horse
finding them.
Mr.. King has no explanation to Of
fer as to why Dan performs this feat
but supposes that he must have been
taught it. He claims shat the horse
sets the birds from scent, as he fire.
quently makes a point where it would
be impossible for him to see the birds.
Another trait in Dan is his remark
able love for children, which he shows
in many ways when he is near them.
He will caress a child, neigh after
them and has been known to leave his
feed to be with them.
Mr.. King values his team very high
ly, both as a matter of attachment
and Commercially.

Shocked rhe Collector.

A representative of a firm OF iano

the collector of rents of slum prop

who have tried it. Knocking at the

Look at a Girls Heel.

IF you want to know whether a
girl is sloven or not, look at her
heels" said the wise woman to the
young man who was contemplating
matrimony. Her gown may be pref
ty, her hat becoming, her neckwear
trim and neat and her gloves we'll
fitting, but If her heels are run over
look out for her. Her trimness in
other respects simply denotes tn at
she is neat spasmodically; that she
will make an effort to keep things
tidy and in order only when she is
urged to or because she has some spe-
cial provocation. But by nature she
is slack. The man that marries a girl
with perpetually turnover heels will
find her coming to the breakfast ia
BILE as soon as the honeymoon is over
in a tumbled kimonia and with her
hair in curl papers. She never will
be a good housekeeper.
ION the other hand,I We seen girls
who maybe did not have such trim
appearance, whose hair was apt to be
a little flying, but those heels rested
firmly on the ground, and never did l
discover they were in the slovenly
class. Maybe they were not careful
enough of outward appearances, but
they kept their buttons sewed on,rips
repaired, spots sponged off and their
rooms in immaculate order.-New

the soldiers stationed there are con-

have done their share to make the
day a pleasant one. What is said TO
be the largest Christmas dinner ever

hundreds of tins of plum pudding. In
order to convey these delicacies in
safety and good condition to their

The fowls were all raised in Califor-

This generous contribution by the
Government to the typical observance
of the great religious holiday is ex-
pected to put Uncle Sans fighting
men in good humor and to lessen
to some extet that "homesick feel
ing" which frequently attacks the
exile. The personal friends in this
country of the soldiers have also
taken a hand in adding to the lat
ters contentment by forwarding to
them multitudes of gifts of various
kinds. Nor will the American civil
ians there be forgotten by the rela-
tives and friends from whom they are

THE KENTUCKY DARK
TOBACCO DISTRICT
History of the Fight of Farmers
In that Section Against The
Gigantic Trust.

Ihere are twenty-six counties in the
state of Kentucky and Tennessee that
go 10 make up the dark tobacco
belt" This district furnishes a grade
that is not furnished elsewhere. The
average annual production is about
lS5,OOO,OOO pounds, Seventy nations of
the earth draw on this for supplies.
IL costs about 6 cents a pound to raise
IT, There was tobacco trust in
Europe and one in America. They got
IN each others way. Thomas Fortune
iByan (of Equitable Life assurance
'notoriety0 Representing the American
trust,went to England to make terms
with Sir Charles Mills,the head of the
foreign tobacco trust. And these
pirates of comerce made terms with
each other in the same way that
Caesar, Lepidus and Anthony met on
a small island, and divided the Roman
empire among them,as it it had been
their paternal inheritance. These
officers of high finance proceeded to
divide the tobacco belts into districts
by States, counties and public roads.
The tobacco raisers were at the mercy
of these manipulators, who had as a
partner the astute king of Italy. His
agents bought for cents,and he sold
to his subject at a profit of a dollar
pound, making millions. The
growers appealed toe ongress and the
law In vain. On the Gath of September,
1904 the growers met in delegated
conventionn, and agreed on terms and a
way of marketing.In six months the
agents of the trusts were paying
nearly double the prices they had been
paying,while running the lover pro-
duction" racket as an excuse for low
prices. The raisers ofthis product are
teaching a Lesson in the work of farm
organization, and exemplifying the
soundness of the doctrine that farmers
can control prices, and take the
business out of the hand of specula-
tors.
The lawlessness at Princeton, Hop
kinsville and other places has been a
harder blow to the Farmers organiza-
ton that to the Trust blu he great
bulk of the tobacco growers in this
combination denounce lawlessness a,
much as anybody and are not re-
sponsible for it.

1T CAN BE DONE.

The crews of Cambridge or Oxford in England
have always defeated any crew sent from an Amer
ican university or college to compete with them
abroad. There at least two paramount reasons
for this: First, that thoroughly representative
American crew. composed of college oarsmen, has
never been represented, and those crews which
have been sent from time to time have never been
given long enough period on the other side to be-
come acclimated. Consequently they were what is
termed stale" when the time came for the big pull
There is little doubt but that among the col
lege oarsmen OF the United States a crew could be
picked that would defeat any organized in England
to defend its title II the various coaches of the
different universities who have crews would get
together, and without prejudice, pick from
those under their supervision, decide on the best
stroke to be used, give the men plenty of tir,e
abroad TO get used to the climatic conditions, G.
cetera there would be decidedly interesting event
on the famous Thames that would make the Brit
jshers sit up and take notice.
