DON'T BE TOO HASTY TO
ACCUSE

Written by Sam Baird as his own
vindication and published verbatum
Sung to the tune Marching Through
Georgia. :"
Says E. w. Clayton to Sam one day
Gas you're sweeping banks and school,
If you will step across the way
You can get the Wanslee Pool.
Next day he went across the way
And he started in to work
For fifty cents day
AS his salary or his pay.
CHORUS
Hurrah, Hurrah, we'll go to Solomon
vile,
Hurrah, Hurrah for justice to fulfill,
You'd better not be too hasty,
To jump up and accuse
Until you know who stands in certain
shoes.
One day to Sans surprise Johonson
read
A warrant of his arrest
Wanslee claimed he'd lost twenty-one
dollars
And accused him of the theft.
So Samy Baird, he went along
And tended to his biz,
He did not do any monkey work
Or even say Gee WhiZ.
And when the Justice Court was set
Sam did not worry or fret
But swept right on as usual
Without a gamble or a bet.
And people came from East and West
And North and South, as many,
Who came and swore that old Sam
Baird
Would never steal penny.
That night when Sam had reached his
home,
And was lying in his bed; :.
He happened to think that he had not
Much law stored in his head.
Says he, I'd better get some one
To help me safely through,
I'll go for w. R. Chambers,
He knows just what to do"
Says the justice to defend, "Now,
Providing that you will
Give Wanslee twenty-one dollars,
You may stay and work there still;
Or fifty dollars in money
Or fifty days in jail,
But in less than jiffy
Sam had Brown and Ridgway on his
bail.
So now we've been to Solomonville,
And Sam is proven innocent still,
And he is sweeping banks and school
And let's Wanslee play his pool
We'd better not be too hasty
To jump up and accuse
For no perfect human
Is in any shoes.

AGRICULTURAL IMPORTS

So great is the demand for agri
cultural imports in this country that
our sales abroad are falling off and
we are importing large quantities
The recent shipments of potatoes
from Ireland are fresh in everyone's
mind, and we take considerable
shipments from Canada and Mexico,
A recent agricultural item in the
consular reports states that last year
1877, ,69S crates of tomatoes were
shipped to this country from Cuba
besides Al ,Sl3 crates of okra, egg,
plant, peppers, etc. The farmer
still has room to expand his market

The woman suffragests have de-
cided to invoke the aid of the In
itiative" in order that the people,
by their votes at the next general
election. may declare whether they
want equal suffrage for women or
not. The women should not be
compelled to take this step; the legis-
lature should have been willing to
submit it to vote. 1t is a matter
of national Importance, and one
that deserves more consideration
than it has ever received. Equal
suffrage is not far distant and public
men had just as well understand it.

1t would seem as though 1t would
be an easy matter to enact legislation
which would compel the trans-Atlan-
tic steamship companies, and all 9th.
err similar corporations for that mat
ter, to carry enough lifeboats to care
for their passengers in case of acct
dent. A simple act which would re-
fuse clearance papers to a steamship
which was not properly safeguarded
would go a long way toward prevent
ing repetition of the recent horror
off Cape Race. Such an act could be
drafted with the usual windings of
red tape by which the effectiveness
of much legislation is destroyed.
And there is no reason why the
steamship companies should not be
taxed a sufficient sum to pay for a
force of inspectors to carry out the
regulations that would be prescribed

The Browne-Burke Scrap

In the anticipation of victory IN
the presidential election next fall, the
democrats of Vermont are already
evincing a lively interest in who shall
be the member of the democratic nat.
ional committee from this state. To
this parsonage falls the distribution
of federal pap" in Vermont, since
there are likely to be no democratic
members of congress in position to
advise the president. Thomas h
Browne of Rutland now holds the
place, but it seems there are no in
considerable number who doubt Tho
mas and want to GUST him In favor
of ]. Il. Burke of West Rutland mot
]. e. Burke OF Burlington, who how
ever, supports his namesake, having
no use for Browne) 1t is charged
that Browne wiggled in past Burke
four years ago by some rather pecul'
lar means, also that he played treach-
erous to the candidate for governor
that year. But Browne is clever and
scrapper, and will not give up to
anything less than majority against
him. Hatchets are already out Oh
both sides. The presidential canvass
enters to degree, Browne being ia
vorable to Wilson, which means that
his opponents will rally for Clark oil
Harmon. 1t looks like old times
again, and revives in us older heads

TO ExTRADITE DoRR
Alleged Murderer Of Lynn Millionaire
in California Jail.

III OdiiIOTTld YAH.
Boston, April 25.-Gov. Foss yester-
day afternoon signed the extradition
papers presented to him by Inspector
Burkes of Lynn, asking for the return
of William A. Dorr of Stockton, Cal,
who was indicted for the alleged muir
der of George +. Marsh. A telegram
from Stockton, Cal, says that Dorr
ended his supposed attempts to feign
insanity and told the jailer that he
had fallen to the floor of his cell and
that on recovering consciousness
seemed to have awakened from a
dream. He wanted TO know what
was meant by keeping him In jail
Later he said that other prisoners
had told him he was held on the
charge Of numbering George E. Marsh
at Lynn. When the charge against
him was repeated by Chief Braire he
appeared astonished and asked for a
lawyer.
Dorr said that he did not remember
ever having left Stockton. Then
Dorr again begged to see his aunt,
Miss Orpha Marsh, but was refused.
o. B. Parkinson, lawyer, was called
and instructed to inform the prisoner
OF the charge and of his rights and
at the end of the consultation Park
inson said that he had not decided to
take the case. Chief Braire said that
he will make an attempt to induce
Dorr to tell what he knows.

Testing AmatIte Roofing

Every once in a while the manufac.
turers OF Amatite hear OF somebody
who got interested in Amatite five
or six years ago, when 1t was new
on the market, and who laid a little
of II alongside some old style roofing
as a test. Sometimes they would put
the Amatite and the skin coated roof
Ing side by side on the same building
at the same time. Sometimes they
would try Amatite on the new COW
barn and lay the skin coated roofing
at the same time on the wood shed.
The reports of these tests are now
coming in. After both the roohngs
had been laid for two or three years,
II was necessary to paint the skin
coated roofing. When the owners
looked at the Amatite roofing, how
ever, they found It still as good as
new, for Amatite has mineral sur
face which requires no painting what
ever.
In every case that has been report.
ed, the men who made these cautious
tests of Amatlte when II was new are
now using nothing but Amatlte and
have given up the use of old.style
painted roofing entirely.
When you can buy mineral sur
faced roofing like Amatite, which
needs no painting for the same price
as smooth.surfaced roofing which
requires painting regularly, II does
not take long to figure out which Is
the cheapest in the end. A sample

A Fish Story

Dawn was breaking. A half pound
trout lay licking his chops under the
School street dam, waiting for break
fast to be served.
A well known disciple of |. Walton
who had baited his hook by the light
of the morning star, stood on the
bridge, and cast his lure over the
spot where the speckled beauty lay.
Biff-fiiplty-flip, and another big fish
hath bit the dust. But hold, gentle
reader, hold-for the hook did not,
and Mr.. Fish Topped back into the
bosom OF the deep. while Mr.. Fisher
man returned to the bosom Of his
family.
Mr.. Fish resolved never to go near
that dam again, but whether the
School street one. or the big one ut
tered by the disciple, deponent saith
not.
He got the hook in the mouth, and
has a portion of 1t there yet, but
where did Mr.. Fisherman get it? That
Is the theme of this true story. And
the point we wish to emphasize is
that he DID NOT get 1t at Griswold' s
because in telling the tragical tale
he called himself a fool for using
hooks which someone told him were
Just as good" as those sold by us,
and which he had proven last year
to be the best he ever used.
These hooks are the best made In
the world, are tied to first quality OF
gut with the purest white silk and
are then enameled three times to
make them impervious to the action
OF water and air.
They are not stock hooks but are
tied up to our special order at con
siderable extra expense to us, but
none TO our customers.
Why should they not be reliable?

Look for Natural Flesh.

In selecting animals for the feed

abundance of natural flesh Other
wise feeding is likely to be process
In which the chief pay of the feeder
will be the companionship of the
steers while he owns them At every
turn Of his carcass demonstration at
the short course at Iowa State col
lege, John Gosling, the veteran dem
onstrator, emphasized the fact that a
good feeder must carry an abundance
of natural flesh. This cannot be add
ed no matter how long the animal is
fed. The farmer must keep this in
mind when selecting breeding ami
mails and must aim to produce feed
ers that carry as much flesh as pos
sible. This point was very we'll illus

Shorthorn was lacking in lean meat
and carried too much fat in proper
