their time In senseless drudgery. In

has never yet pitched the key OF Its
demands half high enough. 1t has
always asked some mere mitigation of
its Observation-Disclosures hours and
more pay. The right demand of an
awakening democracy Is not that its
labor shall be lessened or lightened.
but that II shall be done away with.
So long az there Is class set aside
as laboring class, democracy Is only
disappointed hope.
AS things stand. prosperous people
never speak OF themselves as labor
ers-except In sentimental moods.
They perceive, more or less dimly.
that they all make their living not by
being put to inconvenience, but by
making use of discoveries. Thus tbs
new era OF toilless intelligence seems
already to be halfway ushered In.
Though, II the last truth must be
told, II has barely got its foot across
the threshold. The delay OF its grand
entrance Is mainly caused by the dull
hereditary submlssiveness OF the
working classes'-which makes II
possible for intelligence to live, not
by the subdual Of the Garth, but OF
the poor.
When you buy a steel rail or q
rubber shoe, the coarse stun Of the
thing Is given you gratis. What you
pay for Is wholly spiritual and i'm
ponderable; It weighs nothing on the
scales. You balance dollars worth
of your own time and attention
against the intellectual citation (their
failures go for nothing) Of the inven.
tors and thousand other minds that
have had the happiness OF knowing
how to help trees grow. fire burn and

physical distress has gone into the

Will Give More Premiums.

At meeting of the board of manag-
ers of the Frederick County Agricultu-
raj Society, held on Saturday, much bus
mess relating to the coming fair was
transacted.
The committee on revision of the pre-
MUM list reported that two classes had
been added to the cattle department,
providing premiums for Brown Swiss and
French Canadian cattle. Additional pre-
miums have also been provided in the
farm and garden department and in other
departments.
1t is expected that the premium list
will be out by August Is.
The board decided to make a change
regarding exhibitors tickets. Hereto
fore 81 has been charged for these tick
cts, but passes have been given for at
tendants in the live stock and machinery
departments The board decided to re-
duce the price Of exhibitors tickets to
81, but to make/a charge of 81 also for
each attendant S ticket. This ticket will
entitle the holder to four admissions, one
each day.
The board also decided to reduce the
charge for season tickets from $3.50 to
81. These tickets will not be transfer
able, but will entitle the purchaser to
one admission each day during the fair,
and will make the cost half price.
A committee consisting of Messrs.
IIumm, Hargett and Ketauver was APP
pointed to con slider the feasibility of hav
ing ii butter test at the fair.
