FARMERS were promised $1.25 for
wheat by the Free-Trade scouts who
were vote-hunting in November, 1892,
but we hear nothing about the price of
wheat now, since it has dropped to 561
cents at Chicago. This is part of the
kindergarten ‘object lesson” from Teach-
er Cleveland. —American Economist.

the workmen were promised who voted
for free trade?
A weALTHY farmer in the Schoharie
Valley sold his wool clip recently—7,000
pounds, for 15 cents a pound. Last year
it brought him 25 cents a pound. He
voted for Mr. Cleveland and now has the
satisfaction of knowing that he contrib-
uted, not only his vote, but 40 per cent
of his legitimate income to “educate” the
dear people and make wool free to the
manufactuvers.— Boston Commercial Bul-
letin, July 15.
New ENGLAND mill owners are much
alarmed at the dullness of the times. and

charges this to the Sherman law. What
a pity it had not thought to announce he-
fore election that Democratic victory
would be followed by industrial depres-
sion, but that the depression would all
be caused bv the silver law, and not by
the tariff. —Buffalo Express, July 24.
SoME of the Tariff Reform papers have
been shouting themselves hoarse for the
repeal of the Sherman law. It is amus-
ing to see the unanimity with which
many of these Tariff Reform papers have
lost sight of the tariff since the election.
Frem the great metropolitan daily down
to the little patent inside cross-roads heb-
domidal, one and all have jumped on the
poor old silver dollar that served the
realm from the foundation of the Gov-
ernment until it was banished in 1372 by
a cruel and rapacious cabal of gold mon-
ometalists. OF late, however, some of
the lesser lights in the newspaper world
seem to have become ashamed of them-
selves.—Peoria Journal, July 23, 1893.
Tue advocates of woman suffrage will
be gratified with the result of the recent
school elections in Kansas, where the
female vote showed a large increase over
any total previously polled. The test is
regarded as more conclusive as to wom-
an's desire to vote than any yet made,
because the elections were held in the
country, where it is naturally more diffi-
cult to get the vote out. But notwith-
standing this embarrassment the increase
in the female vote is believed to be fully
100 per cent. It is true that especial ef-
forts were made to interest the women
good many hetter men. At the most
momentous crisis in its history it suw a
President assassinated the latchet of
whose shoes Grover Cleveland is not
worthy to unloose, but the country sur-
vived the blow. Another President was
murdered, but as that same man remarked,
“the Government at Washington still
lives.” So while the country wants to
see Mr. Cleveland live to ride down
Pennsylvania Avenue in 1897 with a Re-
publican President, it does ask a rest
from being continually told about his
“tremendous responsibility” and his ““tre-
mendous value” to the Government, and
it asks it hard, too.—Philadelphia Press.
THERE is considerable food for reflec-
tion in the following, which was recently
contributed by a lady to the Somerset
Vedette:
“Did it ever occur to you that the most intense-
ly selfish thing ever invented, manufactured.
sold or bought is the bicycle? So selfish is it in
its make and use that one, and only one, person
can be accommodated on it. Look at it as it
passes you, or stands up beside a post or leans
against a house, and note how disgustingly sel-
fish it is, with its seating capacity limited to one.
A buggy, sleigh, or even a baby's carriage can
be utilized in a dual way, but the selfish bicycle
is intended for one and only one at a time. Is
not the buyer or owner or user of the selfish
thing necessarilv a selfish person? See him as
he glides along the street wrapped up in his sel-
fishness—why, his only thought is self—self first,
self last, self all the time.
Is he a young man with natural feeling for,
and gallantry toward a lady friend? Possibly he
may be such a one; but if so, has he not a poor
way of showing the fact? The one hundred and
fifty dollars invested in his selfish riding ma-
chine, would afford pleasure, amusment and
health to his best girl for horse and buggy hire
for two or three years, if judiciously used.
But the most inexcusable and disgusting exhi-
bition of bicycle selfishness is that of a married
man riding through our streets on a beautiful!
evening. In his selfish enjoyment. if enjoyment
it be, he seemingly gives no thought to his wife.
who goes through the drudgery of housekeeping,
day after day, and who needs an ring far more
than he does.
A buggy ride once or twice a week is what she
needs and is justly eutitled to: but, alas, the
poor husband that can pay $150.00 for a bieycle
for his personal gratification, would be over-
whelmed with a sense of his poverty at the hare
thonght of spending two dollars for buggy hire
for his wife. Aside from all this. if some of the
big fellows that ride bicycles through our streets
could see themselves as others see them—conld
see themselves humped up on their wheels. and
see what a sorry figure they cut. they wonld seek
back and unfrequented streets for their seltish
gratification.”
When the Mills Shut Down.
O, "twas glorious, last November, when the vie-
tors marched away
With red fire. drums and banners in magnificent
array!
How their eyes with rapture sparkled, how each
loyal heart grew warm
At the thought of poor old Benny swamped by
evelones of reform!
And how double extra jolly it would be to scotch
and kill
Our W. McKinley and his blamed old robber bill.
But a different sort of feeling seems to permente
the town,
And gas don’t count for glory
When
The
Mills
Shut
Down.
O, ’'twas altogether lovely then to nag the (i. O.
And furnish season tickets up Salt river, don't
you see?
Slashing up official pudding, sure, such happi-
ness must bring,
While Maxwell gives his hatchet just a little ex-
tra swing.
But hold! here comes another sort of music in
the air,
That tells of empty stomachs, and of pockets
plucked and bare!
Where are those protection killers now, these
spouters of renown!
Where, oh, where these great reformers
When
The :
Mills
Shut
Down?
Lo! the great and noble Grover, what a valiant
Knight was he,
To plant his No. 11s squarely on ‘plutocrasee.’
And Adlai, the fearless, of the weird and awful
name,
How his stirring deeds should echo on the
trumpet blast of fame;
How they’d turn the country over and then turn
it back again,
And scatter all the rascals from among the
haunts of men!
"Tis a glorious prospect, truly, for many a thriv-
ing town.
But it peters out so easy
When
The
Mills
Shut
Down!
