As a fur ber illustration let us take the vote of Som erset borough. Beaver received 2 votes uore than Campbell, Cnffroth 46 more than rattison, and Stewart 50 more than McKin ey . For w bom were the 50 vote that Stew .rt received more than M Kinley cart tor tor Cuticrcs?

What powerfully influential gentlemen these Independent bosses are, Wolfe un aided and alone nominated himself, and ran 7,000 more vote than Stewart, In 1378 Somerset county, with the aid of Louther Smith, F.

The long evenings are here again, and now is the lime for the farmer to balance bis book for the past year and make plans for thenext. It is far bei ter to be planning or reading something about his work than to seiid the evenings looking into the Are or going to tbe nearest'grocerv. It U charged ! -ometiines that the common farmer doesn't think that is, to reason fairly and study out the why and wherefore of dhliculties that concern his interest.

The wind that fans With poisoned wing the caravan that stroll Across Saharah's fiery sands, Has less of Death than the Angel that controls he winds and waves that did so speedily Chantre haughty pride to base humility. Death's angel, in a cloud, before tbetu stood As black as sable fright, aW fierce as fire, Foreboding evil j yet the foemcn would. With harden'd heart and fell, revengeful ire, Pursue the Goshenites, who waiting stood To sec the end of their destruction dire. When Moses, from abov, with outstretched band, Shonld shake o'er Phraoh's host the magic wand. Aloft now Moses holds tbe potent rod ; Now plunges to the deep the angry wave ; Now curse the vile, tbe might of Jacob's God, Anticipating nw a watery grave Where monsters of thedeep have ever trtxl In q lest of spoil. The master and the slave A ! soon shall perish where above shall roll The restless deep in one unbroken whole. Then yawned the heaving billows madly wild; Then drave the foemen heavily and every corps Grew mutinous. Still higher piled The geu'ral doom. One fierier than before he billows yawned, then calmed and smiled , Above the wreck hat wrought Egyptia sore, And naught remained, save dead upon thej shore. And the wild echo of the horrid roar. The Hamites rode precipitately fast, And turbulenlly pompous was their ride, They by the rocky gates of Succoth past Down to the Dead sea's now dividing tide Full bent on swift revenite, but by the blast Of God they fell and unrevenged they died, And to ignoble graves were swiftly burled Vnpitied.

There were but two ways make him a Christian, or re move the temptation. In speaking of the license laws, be said they were a failure un deniably, owing to the impossibility of en forcing them. He spoke of the growing jxntimept that made drinking disreputable. Tbe liquor shop yd pe banished to the background step by step, and now a petition for an Amendment to the Constitution to prohibit the manufacture and sale of liquor as beverage, was at our door. There were hindrances In the way. There was the large class of moderate drinkers, the false idea among a certain class that it was depriving a man of bis rights. Liberty to do' that yhich is hurtful to others, la not liberty, but licentiousness. Lastly, the of-ftce-seekem. But be had an abiding faith that we would ultimately have the prohib itory law. Tha nation that would not toler- erate slavery ; the nation that bad given tbe death-blow to polygamy, would also slay the monster intemperance. Mr. Boyd then followed, speaking earnest ly ou the position Christians should occupy in regprd to the question. Mr. 6chc.ll pre sented the subject in iu retrospective view. Remark! were made by others and, before closing a collection was taken for the pur pose of buying temperance literature fur general distribution.
