To. the DEMOCRAT SENTINEL and
Readers:
will write few lines that may be
Of interest to some of my friends in
old Hooking county.
We had very early spring here.
April was warm and nice, but dry.
The fruit all came out in full bloom.
First of May it was cold; rained,
showed and froze ice. On the third
of May the ground froze and nearly
all the fruit was caught, apples, pears,
peaches, appricots, etc, were frozen.
There will be very few. Grapes had
put out their shoots and were in full
bloom when the freeze came, but
they put out new shoots now and the
prospects for grapes, cherries and ber-
ries are good.
There is a large acreage of corn
planted this season, here. People
plowed early and in may it was cold
and then wet. Harvesting of wheat
is on now, but 1t has been so wet that
it is too soft to run a reaper in the
fields. Potatoes are fine, and ready
to dig. We have a fine crop of hay,
and cattle are doing we'll as grass is
fine.
The health of this community is
good. Some few deaths have hap
pened this spring here, but mostly
old people.
There is more politics out here than
little. Everything is for Bryan. l
hope that Taft will be defeated for
he represents the money men and
men of promise and do nothing to re-
lieye the people. / hope the Demo-
Gratis will frame wise platform, as I
believe they will, that the people can
endorse and victory is ours. Let the
people rise up and break down this
one-man power. The full dinner pail
Cry was fake as all can now see.
l wish Ohio was as sure of going
Democratic as Missouri. This state
will go back to her old former ma
jority as sure as fate. will be glad
to hear of all of those public crib
feeders being voted out. Luck to
Ohio and to old Hooking, and success
to the DEMOCRAT-SENTINEL..

Considerable fuss was recently made
because an eastern millionaire has
stopped" to marry a hired girl living
| in Iowa.
Why?
The girl must have graces and per.
sonal points or the millionaire would
not have chosen her. And it is safe to
say that morally she is his equal if not
his superior.
There is no STOPPING about it.
They were on level. or, if anything,
the hired girl was just a little above
the millionaire.
All Of US in America who amount to
anything are hired people.
No doubt this millionaire is a hired
man in charge of some big corporation.
Roosevelt is a hired man.
And so are all our senators and con-
gressmen and diplomats-servants in
the pay Of the people, --v---e.r,
And, fellow citizens: -
One Of the things that are the matter
with this country is the growing tend
ency to look down on the man who
works with his hands or the woman
who works with her hands.
The tendency is devilish and danger.
Gus.
Let US learn again that the hands
that are Scared by honest toll bear
wounds as honorable as those received
in battle The overalls and the ging-
ham aprons OF labor are as honorable
as and vastly more useful than all the
martial trappings and uniforms of war
Let US learn again that the doctrine
of the dignity Of labor is fundamental
- the republic.
And so we say hurrah for the hired
girl and the hired man, these two who
loved each other for what they were
and paid no attention to the accidents
Of fortunes!
