CROWS STINGER OUT.

Congressman Chas. A. Grow, who
was elected by the democratic votes
of this congressional district, made a
speech the other day, in the house of
representatives, explaining the stand
he had took in infusing political SER
vice" into the appointment of census
enumerators. In part, here is what
he said:
"While [ was absent yesterday at
lunch letter which / wrote was read.
81 am wholly responsible for every
word that is in that letter, and it ex-
pressed my views exactly. | do not
regret having written it. The only
thing that do regret is that there are
some members of this House SO mar
row-minded as to get the idea that the
President of the United States, or any
of his subordinates, had anything
whatever to do with the writing of that
letter. But it seems that our democrat
friends are very ready to raise howl
or row when a piece of pie is cut
and do not share in it.
ga shining example of the fairness
and nonpartisanism of the democrats
of this country can be seen in the
shape of my district, which is almost
400 miles long and at one place only
q miles wide. 1t was gerrymandered
by the democratic party for the sole
purpose of making it democratic for
ever, but there have been enough re-
publicans who have moved from the
north to make it republican, and it
will remain republican so long as it
stays in the shape that it is now in.
Another shining example of dem
ocratic fairness can be seen in the vote
cast in one corner of my state, which
is strongly democratic. One township
of that county had 1000 persons liv-
ing in it, yet its vote was cast at more
than l,5O0."
Well, we'll. Now what do the dem
ocrats think who voted for Mr.. Crow
and defeated that old war horse of
democracy, Joe Russell?
It's pretty kettle of fish, isn't it?
OF course the democrats realize their
mistake now, but mistakes are always
expensive.
Just read that speech over again.
What do you think of it, anyway?

HOGLESS STREETS.

A great howl and wall of woe went
up when the hog law was first talked of,
and when the law first went into effect
lot of people fairly went into spasms.
But they are learning better now,
and begin to reolize its good qualities
and realize its benefits. Our streets
are nicer and cleaner and the city
inviting. BY the time the law is six
months old the people would not do
without it.
Another good law would be to pre-
vent people who live in town from
turning horses and mules loose on the
streets, as they are a source of danger
and do considerable damage to city
and personal property.
Another good thing would be for
people to keep their COWS up at night.
This would go a long ways toward
keeping the streets and sidewalks clean
and would defer the stock law for a
long time.
Perhaps the most annoying thing,
and one that causes more hard feel
ings among neighbors than anything
else is the town chicken. But the
chicken is a common outlaw, and when
your neighbors fail or refuse to keep
their fowl on their own premises you
are Il law unto yourself and can dis
pose of the chickens in the most con-
venient way, only if you kill them you
are not supposed to bother about the
anger of the owner. And few dead
chickens will teach your neighbors
that you have as much right to garden
and flowers as they have to convert
the whole town into poultry yard.
AS towns become larger the people
have fewer personal liberties" The
welfare and convenience of the people
as whole must be considered, and
laws are made for this purpose, and
not to work a hardship upon any one,
Kindly remember that there are
others.

Isn't it time to have love feast?
Everything is looking up in Hayti,
and we owe it to ourselves to get to-
gether and pull. Now's the time. The
time to get results is when the oppor-
tunity presents itself, and not after it
is passed-you cannot even depend on
catching the tail end of it with any de-
gree of success, because it is bob-tailed
tail pulled off long time ago by
people who were about to get left in
the shuttle. Hayti has lost much by
waiting. We lost the county seat in
1898 by "w-a-i-t-ing." Let us not
wait again, but be up and doing and
take hold of opportunities when they
present themsel yes.

THE PUBLIC SQUARE.

Last year, after we had exhausted
all our lung power to have the square
fenced and set to trees, to no avail, the
good women of Hayti came to our res
cue, and the men Immediately joined
them in the move, and in little while
the square was inclosed with IA beauti-
full fence and the grounds graded. The
women organized the Civic League and
worked diligently to accomplish their
purpose, and the men responded with
chivalry and made liberal donations.
1t was no small undertaking, and much
money was spent and much good ac-
complished. But it was too late then
to set trees and plant grass, and that
falls TO our lot this year.
We are glad to state that arrange

Do you know that an editor of a
newspaper can, in his rounds stop
and ask hundred persons, what is
the news?" and that ninety-nine out of
a hundred will say, ''nothing?" Yet,
at the same time at least fifty of that
number know something that if it is
not found in the next issue will great
ly astonish them and disappoint them
more, and then the next time you see
them they will tell you that they did

he has another think coming, for in
