CITY VERSUS COUNTRY.
Some Good Sound Sense Expressed in
 Humorous Comparison.

Miss Katharine Hobart Hare is wearing a frock of embroidered white chiffon through which gleams an under dress of pale blue satin"-Philadelph Public Ledger.
 ''Mr John Brown is painting his barn." a typical item in the country correspondence column of a county weekly
 There is nothing so deliciously com ic to the metropolitan as the news items in the country columns of the county papers. But the county editor knows what he's about and he prints as news what is news to his readers
 The painting of a barn. which is in a measure a public improvement, since every we'll kept farm in a community is an advantage to that community, is news in the country. The country edi- tor. often as well educated and well in formed as the average city newspaper man. and rarely an ignoramus. is per- haps little more interested in the i'm provement of real estate in his county than the publisher of the Philadelphia Public Ledger could be in the color or
 IldttTldl or a gown worn DN MISS Hare. But the publisher of the Public Ledger puts into his columns what is news to his readers. filling the various columns satisfactorily to various classes of readers. Neither the editor of the country weekly nor the publisher of the city daily lacks a sense of news values or a sense of humor. Readers in the country are interested to know that Mir. Browns barn. which is seen by persons who drive along a certain country road, is being painted and will improve the appearance of the farm. Some readers in a great progressive city are interested in knowing whether Miss Hare's frock is made of chiffon and what gleams through it. although a majority Of those readers never saw Miss Hare and never expect to see the frock. Is the country idea of what is news less creditable to intelligence and mental balance than the city ideae- Louisville Courier-Journal

CONTENTM ENT.

Formerly there was. if not general content with things as they were, gen. eral acquiescence in them as divinely ordered. says the Cincinnati Enquirer Now there is universal discontent and ferment, and a wide and growing pur- pose to overturn things as they are without having thought out any CO., herent, reasonable plan of reconstruc- ton.
 There IS truth in the idea that there can be no progress without discontent and we must agree that a certain amount and kind of progress have grown out of it, and that We seem to be moving rapidly toward some ex- tensive readjustment and transforma- ton of social conditions.
 Looking over the whole situation while. of course, happiness depends very largely upon individual tempera ment and the way every one looks at and meets the vicissitudes of life, we are of the opinion that there was more of it on the average when there was less rush and hurry, more tranquility repose and contentment, more homes and family life, less crowding into ci- ties and more reverence for and obe- dience to law.

THE FINDING OF THE LYRE

There lay upon the oceans shore
 cover. A year and more. with rush and roar The surf had rolled it over. Had played with it and flung it by, As wind and weather might decide
 it. Then tossed it high, where sand drifts
 dry
 Cheap burial might provide it. It rested there to bleach or tan. The rains had soaked, the suns had
 burned it: With many a ban the fisherman Had stumbled OCT and spurned it.; And there the fishergirl would stay, Conjecturing with her brother, How in their play the poor estray Might serve some use or other. So there it lay, through wet and dry. As empty as the last new sonnet, Till by and by came Mercury, And, having unused upon it, "Why here," cried he, the thing of
 things,
 In shape, material and dimension! Give it but strings. and. To. it sings, A wonderful invention!" So said. so done; the chords he strained,
 And, as his fingers OCT them
 lowered, The shell disdained soul had
 gained,
 The Tyre had been discovered. O empty world that round us lies, Dead shell, of soul and thought
 .forsaken Brought We but eyes like Mer-
 curys
 In thee what songs should waken!

ABUNDANT LIFE.

One of the greatest texts in the Bible is this: 'I am come that they might have life and that they might have il more abundantly" It is a telling sen tence full of meaning in the very sound of it, but when analysed it con- tains the whole gospel-the new life for each and every individual. says the Ohio State Journal. There is no such thing as social growth. except through the uplift of the individual A nation full of good men is a great nation: a nation full of bad men is weak one Every good man is patriot; every bad man is an enemy.
 One hears sometimes talk of grea. enterprises and great reforms. but the greatest enterprise is a noble. unself- ish. just man. and the greatest re form is when a man quits his mean ness and swears he will do the square honest. pure thing henceforward. Hu- man society is an organism full of cells. and if that society is to rise and be great. each cell must perform its func- tion without reference to what the oth en cells do. Tn fact, its own perform ance is only the condition of the oth- CTS performance.
 But this is getting too abstruse It is the life that the gospel brings that are its credentials-a life that makes the world better by making each mar; and woman better.

What About It?

Everybody knows the days of the week are named for the planets. " says a local paper.
 Then everybody" knows something that is far from the truth.
 It is true Saturday is named for a planet-for Saturn. But what about Sunday, which was named for the sun, and Monday. which was named for the moon? Are the sun and moon planets?
 Others might be mentioned. As for instance Thursday, which was named for the god Thor, and Wednesday, which was named for the god Woden.
 Wherefore, it would seem that what everybody" knows is sometimes wrong

Secretary Young's announcement that he will cordially support Judge Wells and the entire republican ticket for election was scarcely needed to satisfy those who know him that he will be in the harness, pulling with the strongest. In the contest between Wells and Young there was no or ganiZation on either side-voters were left to make their choice without persuasion and with little publicity on behalf of either. The excellent race made by MT. Young shows that he has a large personal following in the territory, which he can easily turn to account some time in the future if he should wish to be a candidate again.

The state election in New Mexico takes place one week from today. In
 the easI-in congress, especially-it
 has been assumed all along that New Mexico would go republican. It is not altogether certain. however, that the republicans will win. A fusion has been effected between the demo-
 cratic party and a considerable ele-
 ment of bolting republicans whose appetite for pie cannot wait, and it Is
 barely possible that the combination may win. It would be a great joke
 on the political prophets if New
 Mexico should go democratic and Arizona should go republican.

The Candidates of a Minority

The returns of the primary cleo tion of a week ago being now ap- proximately complete, it is more evil dent than ever that Mark Smith and candidates of their party for the United States senate through the voice of a small minority.
 Of the 16,555 democratic votes tabulated, MT Smith received S,s9s, or g per cent.
 MT. Ashurst received 9,735. or g per cent.
 By virtue of less than one-fourth of the votes cast by their party these gentlemen are respectively in the field as the candidates of that party.
 This curious result was made pos sible by the large 'field' of senatorial candidates. Thus, of 16,555 votes cast the distribution was as follows: To Mark Smith, S,S9s; Henry Ashurst, 3.735; Eugene Ives. 3.119; Brady O'Neil. 2,494; Reese Ling, 2,OS3; H. L. Pickett, 1,226.
 The official count will of course, increase all totals somewhat, but not much; and the relative strength of the candidates will remain practi- cally as here stated.
 Our democratic friends have talked of the people, But the delegate system which has been discarded never resulted in the nomination of a man for office by one-fOurth of the citizens participating.

The splendid run made by P. H Hayes, Esq, in his contest with that veteran campaigner, Probate Judge Phillips. for the republican nomina- ton for judge of the superior court was a revelation to the public. MT Hayes is a young man. and outside of Phoenix was at a great disad- vantage in not being so well known as Judge Phillips, but at the finish the difference between them was covered by less than three dozen votes. If MT Hayes chooses to run for office hereafter, any candidate against him will have to hustle.
