But then this is not 0 Democratic administration I Theke is Mr. Bryan making two Bpeoohos a day in Iowa and just aching to break into Ohio and New York, but tho wily MoLoan aud Shoohan ore sternly motioniug him away. It's too bad, in view of Mr. Bryan's fonduos for publlo spoak iug. A good deal was heard about coor cion in tho last fall's campaign. Tho latost caao comes from Ohio in tho aunouncomont that the manager of tho Democratic campaign, Allan O'Myors, has orderod ox-C'ongraia man Towne and other silvorono ora tors down off tho stump and out of tho State. Tint Dingloy law reoolpts for the month of September oxceod those of the second month of tho Wilson law and the dofloit for the month of the Wilson law devoloped a deficit of over $13,000,000, while the second month of the Dingloy law was ouly about ono-tenth of that sum. Tub Nebraska banks are complain ing that they have more money than they -can 'loan, and tho farmers of that State are paying off their debts with unexampled rapidity, thus making Mr. Bryan's homo Suite a rather uncomfortable place for him just now. Tliis may acoount for his anxiety to break into Ohio and New York. The nomination of Henry Single Tax George for tho nosition of mayor of Greater Now York by a large element of the Democratic party in that city is anothor evi dence of the fact that the loaders of the Into Popocratio party aro in soarch of a new issuo, and are like ly to adopt the single tax as a posai ble hit, especially among the cities. The American "Ecoiimist" says; "The spreading of protectionist gentiment in tho South, the impar tial and wholly national spirit which has determined the provi sions of the Diugloy law, and the wise and statesmanlike utterances of President McKinloy have gone far to destroy the remnants of that sec tionalism which year ago threat ened to destroy tho Union." Chaikman Jones's views ai.d at titude In regard to tho recognition of silver by Rate platforms are still uncertain. One day he c.nneu'icos that hold oppooi'4 to it; tho next day ho announce that ho favor it, and tho next day ho trios to an TKiunoe that ho has said not.hiug on tho subject. Tho Into Porfocnitt" loader is evidently rvuhamnd of the company ho ia k(Vpintr, but appa rently sees no wny of breaking loose from it. There are others in the who bout Hctamatoky lcgifTM.'on with n feronoo to our tariff is not being hoard from, dosjiito tho dismal pro ductions of last June and July. The only place whero it is suggested is in Argentiuo, and a study of tho commercial relations of that country with the United States shows that there is littlo prolxtbility that any action will bo tnkon which would disturb tho luminous relations of the two countries in view of the fact that wo buy moro from Argentine than sho buys from us. Anyhow, thoro is one thing that William Jennings B ryau can still do. Ho can write letters. Ho has been bribed to keep out of Now York State in person, ejected from Ohio, givou tho cold shoulder in Maryland and shelvod in Kentucky, but this does not prevent his writing letters at long range and injocting his ad vice whore it is not wanted. The United States mails are still open to him and by furnishing to tho nows papors advance copies of his letters ho still mitnagos to koep himsolf bo before tho publlo eye dospito the efforts of the loaders of his party to silence him. Tho Ohio Democrats aro not by any moans a happy family. Tho silvor question has not only made a ft wido broach in. tho ranks of the party but is making the broach wider every day. Not only , are tho gold Democrats absolutely divorced from that branch of tho party which mado froo silvor tho chief plank of tho platform, but now coudidate McLean and his followors want to abandon free silver, and as a result are making anothor division in the party. Chairman O'Myers, who, it is said, ordered ox-Congressman Towne off the stump and out of tho stnto, and even McLean himself, ore understood to bo urging tho absolute aboudomnont of tho silver cause. ADJUST VALUATIONS. With the -present indebtedness of tho county nnd tho prospect -of ad ditional expense in tho way of courts tho taxes will fall far short of mooting tho current domonds on tho treasury, and an indebtedness tax will bo necossary tho coming year. How largo this will bo do ponds on the time t he commissioners doom proper to take. to pay off the debt, but as it now sooms whilo former dobts aro being paid now ones will be accruing so that the tax may and no doubt will be noo ossary for several years. In view of this would not the taxpayers be wise to insist that tho assessment be adjusted so that it may be equita ble. No one wishes to pay more than his share "of tax and no honest man would ask to pay loss. As it is now there can be no dofinito con clusion roached by any one, because there is no real bowis of valuation. It is all guess work. No man can say that his valuation as compared with his neighbor is too high or too low, because Sie doos now know the measure by which the other valua tion is mado, if in fact there is any. This adjustment would ' require much time, labor and care, but, if there is a desire to equally distribute tho taxation among those who pay, it should bo dono. It is the moro important because this is tho triennial assessment, and the values now fixed will practically remain for three years. Farmers do not allow this to pass without an effort to have a proper adjustment mado. Tho moro you investigate the matter tho more you will soo to convince you of its importance to your financial welfare. MUSIC IN SCHOOLS, t The school board at Stroudsburg has introduced the study of music, and ono lesson will bo given each week by a competent instructor. This is an excellent feature in their iu.itraeti.Di. Then is searo.-'.y any knowt.ulgo which affords moro personal satis fitotion or happiness to the poxpeq. sor, than somo knowlodgn of music. Singing is a natural safety valvo for either depression or oxulienmeo of spirit, beside being n compan ion in solitude, and o linppy form of worship. We beliovo tho older generations wcro generally more nd vnncod in a knowledge of hymns and tunes, and tho reading of notes than the present, The Sabbath school of thirty and moro years ago was a great teacher of hymns and music. What middlo aged man or womnn In this and tho surrounding com munities docs not recall with tender omotions tho farm form and voice of John H. Wallace who was accus tonied to hold a service of song in his Sabbath schools? Tho littlo tuno books ore lost or relegated to the gorrot, tho singer has gone to his reward his tuning fork is silent but his memory is groen, and tho hymns lie taught aro still sung and involuntarily come welling up and carry tho thoughts bock to happy childhood days. The name of Mosiorisa household word with tho old people and tho tunes he taught are still stored in their fading momorios. There is nothing purer or moro ennobling than good music, and nothing ten derer than a chorus of ehildrons voices. The girls who had singing Mothers and woro taught at her knees the simplo rhymes and tunes like "Nooror My God" make bettor wives and mothers than those who woro taught no music and no uongs. The old fashioned singing school was looked forward to with interest and pleasuro and the evening spent in music and social intercourse was far more instructive and elevoting than tho modorn rattle of tho piano with its accompaniment of chatter and shnilling foot. Thoso may bo fogy notions and not agreeable to tho tusto f tho pre sent gonoration, but lot tho modorn young man and woman stand up and be compared as to their know lodge of reading musio by sight or sinking without tho guielo of an in strument, with fTiose who wore so taught years ago, and tho difference will bo markod. Iu tho church the choir doos the singing, and tho con gregation worships in silence lest there should bo a discord. Thoro would- bo more religion if tho po'oplo took part in tho sorvTc'o of song, and the voices of tho entire assomblago rose in hymns of praise. We bolicya it would be wise and highly beJiioficial to go back to somo extent at least to tho methods of those days whon singing was moro generally taught both in tho day and Sabbath school. Prepare to Attend. The Farmors Institutes for the winter have boon announced and those for this county will bo held at Milford, Fob. 14, and at Dingman's Ferry Fob. 15. In the ono day In stitute the evening session will be devoted to Education for farmers and thoir children. Tho othor ses sions are loft open for the more gen eral topics rolatiug to Agriculture. These meetings aro intended espe cially to aid the farmors, and assist their in theso efforts to raiso their business out of tho doprcsaod condi tion into which it has fallon in ro- cont years. Complete programs of oxe.rcisea can bo had by addressing this oilice. It is earnestly h'opod that all who possibly cau will attend tho meetings, and bo proparod with such suggestions and experiences as may bo of profit to others. All trades and professions meet and dis cuss tho situation oa relating to the improvement of their business and why not the farmers?
