A Reaetionary.

These reactionaries," said Lewis
Fisher, the progressive mayor OF Gal
weston, in a recent address, remind
me of old Hiram Conway, a miller
of Dee.
Hiram prided himself on being
conservative, and he ground his flour
in the oId-fashioned way, between
mill-stones.
"a brisk young man brought a sack
Of wheat to the mill one morning,
and stood and waited for it to be
ground. AS the stones turned slowly,
and the meal tricl1led in a thin and
sluggish stream, the young man said
to Hiram.
Hang it. Mr.. Conway, 1 could eat
that meal faster than your old mill
grinds it out
Eyes chuckled Hiram, but how
long could you keep on eating it?''
"'TilI starved said the young
man."
Old, but Still Good.
