Conclusion.
In conclusion, Bryan said:
lone OF the great problems OF to-
day is TO secure an equitable distri-
button OF the proceeds OF toll. The
material wealth OF this country is
largely a joint product; In fact It's
few people work alone. and on the
farm a certain amount OF co-G9era-
tion Is necessary Where men work
together, the army organization ap-
plies 10 some degree; that Is, some
direct, others are directed. The diff
fculty has been 10 decide the results
fairly between the captains Of indus
try and the privates In the ranks. As
the dividing is done largely by the
captains. Il is not unnatural that they
should magnify their part and appro-
pirate too large a share; neither 10 II
unnatural that there should be COM
plant on the part OF toilers when
their recompense Is insufficient.
"The labor question. therefore, as
II presents itself at this time. is
chiefly question OF distribution. and
the legislation asked for is legisla-
tion which will secure 10 each that TO
which his services entitle him"
"As legislation Is secured through
the ballot every one should use the
ballot to obtain the legislation neces-
sary. The Democratic platform pre-
sents the ideal toward which the
Democratic party Is striving. namely,
justice in the distribution Of rewards.
The Democratic party prociaims that
each individual should receive from
society q reward for his toll eommen-
surate with his contribution to the
welfare OF society. and. unless some
other party can do the work better.
the Democratic party would like 20
have the support OF ali. whether they
belong 10 the wage-earuing eiasS or
positions in which they direct the ef-

EARTHWORMS.
They Can Move About Only When the
Ground Is Damp.


Ever since Darwin wrote his remark
able book on earthworms the general
public has taken an interest in these
lowly creatures. Everybody has OBJ
served thousands Of them on the ce-
ment walks during and after a rain,
but the true cause of these remarkable
wanderings is not often written about.
The fact is that earthworms can move
about only when the ground and the
grass are wet. The truth of this is cas-
lily shown by placing an earthworm on
some dry sand, when the dry grains
will stick to its Shiny skin and make 1t
helpless.
All living creatures are endowed
with the instinct to move and spread
over the earth. Human beings, higher
animals and birds prefer to move
about in fair weather To the earth
worm and other lowly creatures, like
frogs, salamanders, slugs and land
snails, rainy days are the only fair
days for travelling. When the sun
comes out and dries the roads and the
meadows. they withdraw into their
hiding places. AS earthworms cannot
see clearly. they crawl about in an
aimless sort of way. If they happen to
get on a board or cement walk. when
the sky clears they soon die and shriv
up.
When a dry season or winter ap-
proaches. the earthworms burrow deep
er into the ground. At depth varying
from six inches to two feet each worm
coils up into little ball. BY aid of
secreted slime it makes case of dirt
round itself, and in this state 1t re-
mains dormant until abundant rains or
the spring thaws call it back to a more
active life.-St. Louis Republic.

FIERCE CANNES,
Ths WelHsh Dogs Of NswfeuniIand
and Labrador.


On the extreme northern coast of New.
foundland as well as on Labrador, the
fishing villages and settlements are all
situated In the harbors and creeks
along the seashore. In the summer all
intercommunication with the various
villages is by water, 80 that the roads
are very primitive. In winter, when
the ground Is covered with snow and
the marshes and lakes are frozen, the
people utilize dogs and "comaticks" to
travel to and fro, and also for hauling
firewood, building material, etc. Those
dogs are savage mongrels, closely al
lied to their progenitor, the wolf; in
fact, they are half wolf.
The residents do not trouble much
about these mongrels In the summer,
and thy are generally kept in a state
of semlsavage starvation. They feed
on fish offal during the fishing season
and occasionally band together and go
a-hunting on their own account. On
these occasions they will attack any
thing they come across, man or beast,
and so fierce are their depredations
that caribou, which are plentiful in
Labrador, can only on rare occasions
be found within twenty-five miles Of
the seacoast. as these mongrels have
destroyed or driven them all inland.
Last winter 1t was reported that a
team of those dogs turned on the driv-
er and devoured him and his wife and
child, who were accompanying him to
a distant settlement. 1t has been long
recognized that these packs of savage
dogs were great obstacles in the way
of the progress of the people in these
parts. 1t was impossible for them to
keep cows, sheep, goats or even poul-
try.-Forest and Stream.
