In the northern part of India
sheep are put to use unthought, OF
in European or American countries.
They are made to serve as beasts of
burden. The mountain paths along
the foothills of the Himalayas are
so precipitous that the sheep, more
surefooted than larger beasts, are
preferred as burden carriers. The
load for each sheep is from sixteen
to twenty pounds. The sheep are
driven from village to village, with
the wool still growing, and in each
town the farmer shears as much
wool as he can sell there and loads
the sheep with the grain which he
receives in exchange. After his
flock has been sheared he turns it
homeward, each sheep having on its
back a small bag containing the pur-
chased grain.

No Longer in CahOot.
BY LEO.

Ohlo formed q combine w uelOoI
Governor Herrick and the Re-
publican ticket. They did defeat
Herrick, but failed on the ticket.
The Anti-Saloonists secured their
end in having some new temper
ance legislation enacted, chief OF
which is the county local option
law, in virtue of which any coun-
ty in Ohio may vote itself dry"
if the voters so desire. This
measure was strongly urged by
the late Governor Pattison, who
was a stauneh temperance man.
The alliance between the DEM
ocratic party and the Anti-Sa-
loonists was something Of a sur
prise, because for about half a
century the Ohio Democracy had
been in practical alliance with
the liquor interest, vehemently
denouncing any proposed tenn
perance measures brought up in
the legislature as "sumptuary
legislation" for which they SEEM
ed to have a great horror. In
view of all this what change it
was when, under the lead Of the
late J. M. Pattison, the Democ-
racy formed a sort of political
partnership with the Anti-Sa-
loonists!
The alliance was Of short dur
alton. After the death of Gov
ernor Pattison the party zeal for
temperance waned, and when
the Democracy came together in
a state convention to nominate
governor and state officers tenn
perance was wholly ignored, the
platform showing not a trace OF
Endorsement of what the late
Governor Pattison had brought
about in temperance legislation.
And now the organ of the Anti
Saloonists, The American Issue"
affirms that the late Democratic
state convention was under the
control of the brewers and sa-
loonists. It even tells us that the
Democratic nominee for govern
or is somewhat partial to the in
toxicating beverage.
All this goes to show that the
Democracy Of Ohio has concluded
to fight shy of the Anti-Saloon
contingent. The two parties are
no longer in cahoot.
What follows? The sure de-
feat of the Democracy this fall.
Ohie is a strong Republican state
when things are in a normal con-
dition. Even two years ago when
thousands upon thousands Of Re
publican voters cast their votes
for J. M. Pattison and Democ-
racy, the Republican state ticket
was only partially defeated;
what, then, can be expected when
the temperance men threaten to
abandon Democracy at the fall
election? Defeat is sure.
The Anti-Saloonists are not par
ticular as to the political party to
be in alliance with. They are
after temperance legislation and
will ally with Democrats or with
Republicans, if, by supporting
either, they have some assurance
of gaining their end. Obvious
", the Democracy of Ohio, just
now, is not in a promising mood
to the nti.Saloonists, and this
will naturally ALLEVIATE the zeal
GUS temperance voters. We DO
not think all temperance Demo-
Gratis will vote against their tick
ct, but it is quite certain that the
thousands of Republicans who
voted for Pattison because OF his
known temperance sentiment will
have no reason to vote the Dem
ocrot;c ticket this fall, any way,
