£ FOR THE FARMER. |
A half century ago there was little In
the farmer's life that was attractive to
a young man, says The American Cul
tivator. Those who remained on the
farm were apt. to do so either because
of family ties which seemed to hind
them at home, or were those who
lacked ambition, energy or ability to
find employment elsewhere. Few cared
to come to the farm who were not horn
and brought up there, while cities and
manufacturing towns were filled with
farmers' sous and daughters, who were
seeking for easier and more remunera
tive employment than they found at
home.
It was not necessary to seek far to
find the cause of tills. The hours of
farm labor were long during the great
er part of the year. Nearly every task
indoors or out called for strength
rather than skill, and perseverance
more than judgment. A living might
he obtained and some managed to ac
cumulate property, hut there was little
money to he handled, and it really
seemed as If It was a life of hard toil
and little compensation. The change
of seasons brought some change of
work, and yet it was monotonous. No
machinery lightened labor and there
were hut few amusements excepting
during the long winter evenings. The
farmers and their wives who worked
during all the hours of daylight had
little chance for sociability and little
to interest them outside of their own
affairs.
Today farming Is far different from
what it was as we remember it. Ma
chinery lins been introduced so that
horse or steam power are doing those
things which were then done by human
strength. Skill to direct and guide are
in demand and muscular power is not
severely taxed in the day's labor. Even
the few tools which survive from that
day, the scythes and forks, hoes and
shovels, are now made so light and
perfect that they seem more like toys
than the Implements of hard labor that
our fathers used.
Better animals and poultry have
come Into fashion, and the care of
them becomes an interesting task be
cause we can see how they can he
improved or made more productive by
better methods of feed and care. The
young man who once begins breeding
and growing fine stock is likely to
learn to love them while he is watching
their development and improvement.
Better fruit and better vegetables
have been introduced on the farm, and
not only is it a pleasure to watch their
growth and to taste them when ma
ture, but they can be converted into
cash as quickly us gathered, and the
farmer or farmer's sou need not go for
weeks or perhaps mouths at a time
witlioutacoin to chink against another,
as farmers used to do who had hut
little to sell until after the harvest of
the late fall. Now if he manages right
ly the farmer will have crops to har
vest almost every week from tlie thaw
ing of the ground in the spring until
snow covers it again.
The farmer's life is less solitary as
he grows more interested in his busi
ness. He desires to keep up with the
modern improvements, and to do this
he visits other farmers to see what
they are doing and how they do it. He
must meet with them at the grange or
the Farmers' club or the institute to
talk It over with them, and exchange
experiences in such works as they have
been doing. Nor is he contented with
being limited to the wisdom of his own
county or state. A good newspaper
brings him hints and suggestions and
new ideas from other states, and per
haps from foreign countries. lie knows
that In every state there are men
studying, Investigating and experi
menting to gain knowledge that may
he useful to him or to other farmers.
With all this, the farmer's homo
has become more attractive. He has
not checked the march of improvement
at its threshold. Here are devices!
to lighten labor as well as in the field.
In the house and around it are things
that are ornamental as well as useful.
The bleak, hare house, without shade
around It or a flower, excepting the
wild flowers of the field, is not often
seen now, and many little changes
have taken place to render it a home
instead of a mere habitation and dwell
ing place.
We have spoken of the farmer of to
day as he should he, and as many of
them are. The young man who visits
such a farm, and sees how pleasant
the place may he, and how much there
Is to Interest one in the work of every
season, can scarcely contrast the simp,
the factory or the counting room with
it without feeling that the farm is a
place for liberty and enjoyment, which
makes the others seem like prisons,
from which are barred out the bright
sunshine und tile balmy breezes laden
witli the fragrance of fruit and flowers
and the song of birds.
Nor nre n pleasant home and pleasant
surroundings nil that farm life can offer
to the young man today. The work of
progress has begun, and who shall say
that It Is to he checked. To one who
strives to excel in any branch of agri
culture there seems to he as much
"room at the top" as in any of the pro
fessions. To originate or introduce a
new and better breed of animals or
fowls, or variety of fruit or vegetables, j
or some new method of increasing pro- i
ductlon or lessening labor, may give I
both fame and wealth to the farmer,
us it already has done for some.
We know not why one with ambition, j
energy and perseverance should not
now have as much to hope for and ex
pect as those in other walks of life.
The farmer today is not a peasant,
crushed by toll; nor an ignorant man,
fit companion only for the beasts of
burden. He may boast himself the
equal of any other man, not only In
what he does for the world, hut what
he Is In the world.
PEOPLE OF THE DAY.
General Maximo Gomez, the veteran
Cuban patriot, seems to be the leading
candidate for president of the soon to
be organized Cuban republic. In a
voting contest conducted by a prom
inent Havana paper the old soldier lias
received a large majority of the ballots
sent in.
It may not be generally known, but it
is a fact, that the wife of General
Gomez is an American. She is much
younger that the general, being not
much more than 50 years old, and she
I looks much younger. As a girl she
was considered the belle of the section
GENERAL MAXIMO GOMEZ,
of Mississippi where she lived. She
could follow the hounds all night long
in a fox chase, ride the wildest of
horses, "coon" a log across a creek
with the agility of a schoolboy, and
bring n deer to a standstill nine times
out of ten and use but one rifle ball.
She possessed all the accomplishments
of an aristocratic farmer's daughter.
While the Cubans were fighting the
Spaniards Mrs. Gomez attended to
nearly all of her soldier husband's
correspondence. She answered all of
his letters that were not of serious
consequence, patched his clothing, di
rected the preparation of his meals,
and read to him during the dull mo
ments in the camp. To her husband
she became the ideal wife. In the
jungles of Cuba she sang the songs
she had learned to love In girlhood to
the weary and footsore soldiers who
followed Gomez, and was loved and
obeyed by them as was no other woman
on the island. It was due largely to
her influence that General Gomez ac
cepted the terms of the Americans
after the war with Spain had ended
and met the commissioners at Ha
vana.
She IN Ruck From Imlln.
After a brilliant season as a visitor
to the vice regal court of India, Miss
Nancy Leiter lias returned to America
and Is ready to indulge in social con
quests here. Miss Leiter is the second
daughter of Levi Z. Leiter, the Chicago
multimillionaire, and her sister is Lady
Curzon, the American born vice rcine
of Great Britain's Indian possessions.
Miss Nancy Leiter lias a distinct
celebrity. She christened the battle
ship Illinois two years ago. Carolus
Duran painted her portrait and praised
its model with an artist's ingenuous
frankness. The special value of the

praise is in the fact that Sargent's
teacher lias, more intensely than any
other portrait painter of the preseut
hour, appreciation of the character
istics of modern beauty. lie is a sub
tle critic of form, color and gesture.
Miss Nancy Letter's gracefulness Is
American. It captivated New York
before it was appreciated in Paris. It
made Simla, in India, where she was
the guest of Lord Curzon, the viceroy,
and of Lady Curzon, her sister, devout
In homage to her. The malmrajah of
Kapurtliala gave, in Paris, in June, a
luncheon in honor of her and of her
sister, Miss Daisy Leiter, that the
princes, embassadors and heroes that
were there, wearing all their medals
and emblems of orders of chivalry,
may not soon forgot.

M'KINLEY'S LETTER.
The I*reident Invents n New Phrase,
llut His Letter lias No
Other Merit.
From the New York Journal.
President MeKinley's letter of ac
ceptance resembles a folding bed with
a piano front. When you look at it
first you think it is a financial argu
! ment, but when you let it down you
find that it it an apology for imperial
: ism.
The Republican party has maintain
ed that the silver question is the su
preme issue of the campaign. The
president has kept up that profession.
Therefore, he begins his letter with a
disquisition on finance. But he re
alizes that it would be ruinous to sit
in a corner soliquizing about one topic
while the people were thinking and
talking about another, and, therefore,
after gliding lightly among a number
of other issues, he settles down upon
the subject of imperialism,'and dilates
upon it to the extent of 10,000 words.
Mr. McKinley is entitled to the credit
of inventing a new phrase. He does
not venture to say that the silver ques
tion is the chief issue before the peo
ple, but he remarks: "if another is
sue is paramount, this is immediate."
He does not show, however, why it is
immediate. He does not show that a
Democratic congress would pass a free
coinage law or that a Democratic ad
ministration could disturb the present
financial system. It is true that he
furnishes one more contribution to the
exposure of the hypocrisy of Republi
can financial legislation when he says
that it was so framed as to be effective
only "so long as those who adhere to
this platform are kept in control of
the government." But his own secre
tary of the treasury, in his sincere mo
ments, could have told him that any
apprehension of financial danger from
Democratic success was purely fanci
ful.
From the Pittsburg Post.
President McKinley, in his letter
of acceptance, insists there was no al
liance with Aguinaldo by any of the
American army or naval officers, but
he does not tell how Dewey brought
Aguinaldo to the Philippine islands In
an American war vessel, and armed
him and his followers, and co-operated
with them. Nor does he mention the
fact that in June, 1898, Aguinaldo pro
claimed the Philippine republic and
raised its flag, and McKinley never
protested until the following Decem
ber. Senator Wellington, of Maryland,
has shown that the treaty with Spain
would have failed of ratification had
not a promise to guarantee the ulti
mate independence of the Philippines
been made, only to be broken as soon
as the treaty was ratified. McKinley
says the Flipinos began the conflict,
but fails to quote Gen. Otis, showing
how the fighting was begun by the
Americans, and how he rejected Agui
naldo's plea for a suspension of hos
tilities and insisted upon war to its
end. He claims the largest portion
of the Filipinos "are loyal to us," but
he neglects the fact that nowhere out
of the sight of the American lines in
the Philippines can an American go in
safety. The McKinley letter is un
doubtedly smart, but how this world
is given to smart lying.
From th Springfield (Mass.) Republican.
We can find in this letter of accept
ance no word indicating any change in
the policy of Mr. MeKinley's adminis
tration to hold the Philippines, and hold
them forever, as a subject colony of the
United States. The president makes
free use of the words "liberty" and
"self government" as the end of his
purposes respecting those Islands, but
these words are plainly not used in
their full and accepted meaning. It Is
"self government" under absolute
American sovereignty which he plain
ly means. It is "liberty" within lines
drawn by an absolute alien power
which he clearly has in mind. And
this is the "liberty" of the vassal and
the slave —nothing more.
From the Harrisburg Stnr-Ilulcppndent.
Every man is right in claiming full
credit for what he has accomplished
and no one will complain because the
president is generous in praise of him
self. But a bountiful providence had
something to do with the prosperity
which has prevailed during the last
three years and other influences, not
within the control of the administra
tion, worked auspicious results. In view
of those facts the president's pretense
that the administration is responsible
for all is foolish, if not false.
From the Philadelphia Record.
The prosperity of the country, the
treasury surplus, the favorable balance
of trade and ail the favoring benefac
tions of a kiud and gracious providence
are in turn woven into the president's
narrative. The bad trusts are repro
bated and the good trusts mentioned.
The tariff Is fitted with a halo of com
mendation, and even reciprocity is
marshalled before the eyesight of the
nation as a thing of loveliness.
From the Baltimore Sun.
This may be Mr. MeKinley's idea of
freedom, but it is a monstrous doctrihe
for the president of a free republic to
promulgate. Mr. McKinley has not
strengthened his party's position by
his letter of acceptance. He cannot
convince the American people by such
arguments as he arrays in this letter
that the dangers of imperialism as
practiced by this administration are
less serious that they appear to be.
