THE RICH AND THE POR MAN

A GREAT DEAL is written about
the rich and poor men ana the effort
seo'rs generally to establish that the
rich are nearly all bad. the poor nearly
al good. Few people stop to think
that this is all nonsense. John Smith
may be a poor man, but he is making
the best trades that he can: he is do
ing a great many sharp things-his
struggle is to get money to make him
Independent. He finally gets a tip
that to buy Golden Fleece shares will

morning very rich. He is grateful.
he does many generous acts; but he
invests his money and il doubles in a

night and day dream is to pile up more
money.
Now if that is his dream it is mere
~ force of habit, the habit he acquired
when he was worrying less those dear
to him might some time come to want.
There are many hard and heartless
rich men, but so there ere many hard
and heartless poor men.
There are many very generous rich
men, but there are many poor men
who will divide their last dollar or
their last crust with a brother poor
man. The truth is wealth does not
change a man unless he is fool and
gets the big head. Outside of that
thing called luck there are two kinds
of men in the world. The one class
are money getters; the others are not.
The avericious and dishonest man is
no different when rich than when
poor, save that he has more facilities

IT is the same way with generous
people save that when poor they nave

.WINDJAMMER
TELLS THE DEAR PEOPLE
HOW TO BE CURED.

Two hundred hard earned dollars
were passed up Saturday by the gull
lible public to a fellow with a POM
pous air and a foghorn voice, who
had a remedy capable of curing nine
hundred and ninety-nine out of ev-
cry thousand cases of disease.
Standing on the street corner, this
fellow mesmerized two hundred peo-
pie into believing that his wonderful
remedy was capable of curing most
anything, and was good for the liver,
kidneys, stomach and blood, loss of
appetite and dyspepsia.
This remedy was Gods gift to
man." the woman's relief from all
kinds of pains and diseases.
He had the same story that is
used by hundreds of patent medicine
fakirs the country over. The self
same method is used by them all.
A bunch of good stories to get the
people interested, a glib tongue a
spiel about the tired feeling, occa-
sional headache and terrible story
of the mythical man who is dying OF
some disease which might have been
cured by using this wonderful rene
dy-and then a rake in of the shek-
els. Each man passed him up one
buck.

boy, formerly a news writer, a Phil
lips-Exeter man and University of
Michigan graduate. He is a member
OF the law firm of Corbin, Ludington
& Kemp at Wenatchee now, and he
seems to have caught the Pacific
coast characteristic of booming the
country. 1t was he who sent the ap-
pie to the governor. With it he sent
a letter, copy of which will be
read with interest by hundreds of
his friends.
Mr.. Kemp's letter to the governor
is as follows:
The Hon. Charles M. Floyd,
Governor of New Hampshire:
Dear Sir-I have sent you by
mail a single sample of our last
years apple crop-such crop as
can only be raised in this land Of
sunshine, this Home of the Big Red
Apple, where dollars grow on trees. ="
You doubtless have heard more or
less of the fruit raised in the irri-
gated section of this northwest, and
at any rate-it occurred to me to-
day that the governor of New Hamp-
shire might not be uninterested in
seeing just a fair sample of the big
red apples of Wenatchee.
The apple mailed you weighed
just a pound; it ma ydry little on
the way and fall a little short of
that when you see it. I trust, how
ever, that it may reach you in fair
condition The season is getting a
little late as you know, though We
natchee apples are noted not only for
their size and color but for their
keeping qualities as we'll. The APP
pies, if kept properly, will continue
firm and marketable for a month or
more yet The apple | sent is Ben
Davis. 1t may surprise you to know
that a large number Of Wenatchee
men netted $1,000 an acre from their
orchards last fall, though under such
conditions you viii not be surprised
TO know that five acres means q good
sized fruit ranch and prosperity.
You may be wondering whether
or not the apple weighing pound is
an extraordinary one. 1t is indeed 9
! good-sized one for an average crop
/ but large apples like this are by ne
means unusual or wonderful here
One of the apples year before last
weighed exactly two pounds ant
eleven ounces (forty-three ounces)
and was, so far as is known, the larg
est apple ever grown. A great many
run up to between one and two
pounds.
:. With the hope that this little
souvenir of my adopted state mal
reach you in presentable condition

were called into active service and

States general officers.
The conflict between the North
and the South, ostensibly immedi-
ately .occasioned by a disagreement
between these two sections, on the
subject of the control of slavery,
but perhaps none the less the result
of long standing differences in po-
lit.cal and economic theories
Abraham Lincoln was elected
president by the solid vote of the
North, and the immediate effect CT
lis election was to precipitale the
secessionist movement, and fer four
years we were at war among our.
selves, brother against brother, ia
tier against son. And I say, wound
to God that that sad cart OF Ameri-
can history were blotted out. 2ut,
frank God, we are not divided today.
We stand as che people, AMI are all
ready to shoulder arms in defense Of
the flag which waves over all, and
which we all love.

We are told that sometimes bles-
sings come in disguise, and l would
say that our experience, though a
sad one, has made US stronger the
hearts and lives of the American
people are cemented together by the
bonds of brotherly love as they have
never been before in the history OF
this or any other nation.
Why These Services.
Some one may ask why these Me

sons: First To keep the hearts al
fections warm, and secondly, to
teach our children our nationality
which we ever hold read.

The Government and Good roads.

The Government and Good roads.
A few facts from the April 10th
number of Farm and Fireside that
ought to wake up our slumbering
congressman:
1.-THE total burden of the govern
ment tax is now about ten dollars per
capita. At an increase of only seven
cents a year per capita the govern
ment could vastly improve our roads.
This would not be felt by any individ-
ual Shall the annual expenditure of
millions for the Improvement of wa
terways and harbors, for the reclama-
ton of semi-arid lands and the like
be continued and the government re-
fuse to help to build roads for the
farmer to haul his produce over?
There is nothing problematical about
national aid in good-road building;
it is the only method eve rtried in
the worlds history that has been
successful In a word, the national
government has the right, the need,
the ability and the precedent to
solve this question, and every farmer
in the country ought to push hard for
national aid. In Europe, Australia,
New Zealand, South America ana eV-
cry other country in which national
aid has been tried in good-road build
ing it has been a splendid and un-
qualified success.
ITO me this seems all right. Per-
haps the farmer can see something
the matter with it, but it stacks up
to the editor like the real thing.
Anyhow, the farmer of this commu-
nity-and especially of its richest
agricultural parts-can never come
into his own until spell of soft
weather has lost it's power to stop
business exchange and social inter-
course between farm and town. This
movement has hump on itself, and
it's going to break the ice of indif-
ference and get things going

Syracuse, Sept. 17.-After several conferences
with Governor Hughes to-day. State Chairman
| Woodruff announced the plans for the Repub-
lcan notification ceremonies. They will be held
at the Union League Club in Brooklyn a week
from Saturday, and as an evdence that Re
publican opposition 10 Governor Hughes ended
with his nomination in the convention, the
Kings County organization and the Young Re-
publican Club, a semi-independent Hughes
body. viii Join hands in the first campaign
meeting
Notices We're sent to all the candidates
day., said Mr. Woodruff that the notification
would take place at the Union League Club in
Brooklyn. New York County had the notif-
cation at the Republican Club two years sgn,
ana this arrangement suits Governor Hughes's
convenience After the notification, the club
will give dinner TO Governor Hughes and the
candidates, and then there viii be at least three
meetings in various parts of the borough,
big one, in which the Kings County organiza-
ton, the Young Republican Club, and the Union
League will unite, and two smaller ones. At
the request of Mr.. James. of the Young Repub-
lican Club I will preside at the meeting.
'An opposition 20 Governor Hughes among
Republicans ended with his nomination. I
think the organization everywhere in the state
will give loyal support to him. all ideas TO the
contrary Notwithstanding. The Governor will
make stumping trip around the state, he
did two years ago. but details Of that have not
been arranged yet"
Many Republican leaders were here to-day.
including Superintendent Stevens of the De-
partment of Public Works, Speaker Wadsworth
and Senator's Raines. Armstrong and Aids.
They all agreed that the Republican ticket was
good one. and, while there probably would be
a lively campaign in which the Republicans
could afford to permit laxity or incidence
a victorious ticket
"An men who call themselves Republicans
will swing into line now to elect Governor
Hughes" predicted Senator Raines. "Oppo-
sition to him within party lines is ended now.
There were a great many in the party who
did not consider him the strongest candidate,
ana consequently could not support him for
denomination. But that the convention is
over, Republicans, without respect TO their pre-
vious differences will get to work for the sue

would easily have been a three-alarn fire, in
stead of one alarm. only for the new high

It was the first time that the new high pres
sure hose trucks were in active use at a fire.
and the fremen learned some OF the kinks in
their use.
In coming through Prince street high pres
sure hose wagon which had replaced an engine,
was brought to a dead stop by horse car
There was not room for the big wagon. which
weighs six tons, to pass between the car and
the curb A number of men seized the car, and
in moment it was carried bodily to one side
and the wagon went on
When Chief Croker arrived the fire had gained
considerable Roadway. The big hose wagon was
run up in front of the burning building and
several lengths OF hose were connected with the
high pressure hydrants- On the wagon is
standpipe similar TO the water tower, but not so
high. To this was attached three lines OF nose
and the tremendous pressure developed mad an
immediate effect the flames
Chief Croker sent Captain John Rush around
10 the Bowery with several lengths OF the hose
TO attack the fire from the rear. This would
have necessitated the sending in of another
alarm for extra engines. But the hose was at
the Bowery and with the water pouring in from
front and rear the fire soon out There was
a pressure Of eighty pounds at the nozzle.
