Not long ago the chief boss Of repub-
licanism in this county was heard to re-
mark that he is opposed to Gov Stubbs
for the reason that he is dishonest, unfaith-
ful and traitor to the party and stale,
but, he added, if Stubbs succeeds in get
ting the nomination he will vote for him.
And this leads to the conclusion that the
man who gave utterance to this declara-
ton is not only dishonest, but he is cow
ardly. The most dangerous citizen a
state or nation cen have is a man who
will vote for what he knows is wrong or
for a man who he has reason to believe
Is dishonest.

That the people Of Kansas are over
whelmingly opposed to high tariff and
Cannonism and Aldrichism has again
been partially demonstrated by T. A.
McNeal who submitted list Of questions
in the Mail and Breeze two weeks ago.
Up to last Monday about 1000 answers
had been received and less than 100
stood for the present order Of things at
Washington. Men Of all political parties
responded, but more republicans answer
ed than any others and the ratio for and
against stand patism is about to g.
Those in other political parties who vot-
ed, were practically unanimous for a
lower tariff and the elimination Of despot-
ism in congress and the white house.

The Hat Straw Crop.

The greater part Of the straw en-
ployed for making summer hats comes
from Italy. TO obtain a suitable straw
for this purpose the wheat Is sown as
thlckly as possible in order that the
growth of the plant may be Empower
ished as well as to produce a thin
stalk. The Italian wheat blooms at the
beginning Of June and is pulled up by
hand by the roots when the grain is
half developed. Should 1t be allowed
to remain in the ground a longer time
the straw would become too brittle for
the purpose for which 1t is grown.
Uprooted straws to the number OF
about five dozen, the size Of the COM
pass of the two hands. are firmly tied
together In little sheaves and slowed
away 10 barns. After that the straw Is
again spread out to catch the heavy
summer dews and to bleach in the sun.
When the product has been sufficiently
bleached it is put into small bundles
and classified. The last step is to cut
1t close above the first joint from the
top, when It IS again tied up In small
bundles containing about sixty stalks
each and is then ready for the market.

The LANGUAGES of Paradise.

Every language has its admirers. In
"Lucile" the author. Owen Meredith,
maintained that when he heard French
spoken as he approved he found him
self quietly falling in love- Edward
Hutton Is another instance of this lin
quail fascination. In stating bis pref
e In his enchanting Cities Of
Spain" he recalls an interesting me
diaeval legend. lie says;
"And as | listened to the splendid
syllables Of the Castilian tongue that
rang eloquently through the twilight
remembered the saying Of that old
Spanish doctor Of whom James How
ell tells us in his instructions For
lorraine T%ravelr-to wit, that Spanish.
Italian and French. these three daugh.
tiers Of the Latin language, were spo-
ken In paradise: that God Almighty
created the world In Spanish. the
tempter persuaded Eve in Italian and
Adam begged pardon In French"

WrestIinn For Rent.

In several caDtons of Switzerland
the custom prevails OF holding wres-
ting matches and other exhibitions Of
physical strength at their choral, GYM
nastic and rifle festivals. The cham

sports belong to the most diverse

Taste is curiously localized In the
mouth. Put a lump of sugar on the
tip OF your tongue and you will find II
distinctly sweet. Then try it halfway
back on the tongue and you will find
it tasteless. All sweet or aromatic
substances. such us wine, sugar ald
coffee. can be properly appreciated by
the front half of the tongue, Il piece OF
knowledge that every true connoisseur
applies when be sips instead of taking
a mouthful With most other sub
stances, however, the reverse Is true
In these cases the tip of the tongue
serves only for touching-it Is the back
part that tastes. The sides Of The
mouth, too. are quite insensible TO Ger

WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 6.
Bad For TIE Nsxt One.

A generous and brave but very &C.
centric Virginia planter named Hill
Carter. who had onc been an officer
In the United States navy, had a hand
to hand battle at Bsticuffs q day
with his plantation overseer and came
off second best. fle therefore chal.
Ienged the oyerseer to a formal duel.
but the latter declined on the ground
that, being a husband and father. be
was under obligation not to risk leag'
ing his family destitute. Carter at
once removed that objection by set
ting upon the family a comfortable
annuity. Then everything was got
ready for the fight, but just as the
two men faced each other the sheriff
arrived on the scene. took them into
custody and had them bound over to
keep the peace. Mr.. Carter did not
however, change the deed Of gift with
which be had provided for the over
seer's family. remarking that he might
wish some time L resume the inter-
rupted fight and hence would rather
keep everything in readiness for
prompt action.-New York Post.

Lanauaas of Switzerland.

II IS. curious fact that the people
most celebrated for love of country
should In a manner be without a Ian
guage-that is. a mother tongue. The
Swiss have three official languages
German, French and Italian. About
three-fourths Of the population OF the
mountain confederation speak Ger
man. while the remainder divide -four
other languages among them. chiefly
French and Italian. these languages
being found, as a rule. in districts In
close proximity to the countries where.
In those languages are the principal
tongue. In Switzerland documents and
notices are printed in both the French
and German languages. In the nation
al assembly members deliver their
speeches IN either French or German,
for nearly all members understand
both tongues. The DEGREES and procla'
nations Of the president are translated
by an official interpreter and furnished
to the press in both languages.-New
York Press.

Consul Kinn David.

This amusing anecdote OF Lamardne
Is related By the Baroness Bonde 10
her volume of letters. Shortly after
the revolution Of February he wrote
on the blank leaves Of his pocketbooS
the names of his proteges and sent the
list to be provided with places imme-
diately. Previously, however, 1t seems
he had scrubbed David" on the page
and the head of the cabinet appointed
the said David consul at Bremen The
%postulant. however, never came for
ward, and, though the poet did not Ike
being disturbed, NJ. Hetzel was oblig-
ed to ask who was the David on bis
list.
HE who danced before the ark"
was the answer.
ooh. dear! have gazetted him to
Bremenr"
"How very singular! meant him

The moniteur registered the change
but few knew that the last consul APP

Her Fault.

The teacher In charge Of the primary
department at a school in West Phila'
delphia was talking the other day
about her work and her pupils.
'eThey are dear youngsters" she said'
"but they sometimes make curious re-
marks. Several times l have had oc'
caslon to reprove n little boy who isn't
bad. but who is very mischievous and
annoying. He is always getting iuto
trouble and making a disturbance.

usually uproarious, and was very
tired. Instead Of scolding or punish
ing him | began In rather an exasper'
ated tone to talk to him.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there it at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been unable to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca.
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucus
surfaces of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testi-
monials.
