Mr. Watterson's newsapaper is
referring to Mr. Bryan as "a visi­
onary and heady young person"
who is now exposing him­
self to derision. He com­
pares him with the "wasp,
which is said to be biggest when
hatched." But Mr. Watterson
was for Mr. Bryan a year ago, and
Mr. Bryan has not changed.—In

The balance of trade for May,
including the specie movement,
In favor of the United States was
$55,631,062, or $11,161,180 more

Trade advocaters blubbering
about us losing the trade with
foreign countries because of Pro­
tection.—Sparta, N. C. News.
France ran behind $100,000,000
last year and there were deficits in
Getmany, England and most of the
other European nations. In Am­

surplus of $76,000,000, and instead
of looking around for loans we are
reducing the war taxes, The
showing is one to be proud of.—

Onr position is so strong that

he made in the
1900 campaign and it will be seen
that their one appeal all through
was to the baser instincts of men.
He struggled to break the faith of
the people in the government over
them in the higher courts of the
republic to array the poor against
the rich, class against class, and
to convince the workingman thit
no matter what wages they receiv­
ed, their employers had no pur­
pose but to finally rob and enslave
them, His words bore no fruit
in 1900 they are bearing fruit in
1901.
A prominent member of the
Knights of Columbus, a Catholic
order, which has a membership of
80,000 in the United States, has
started a movement for the aboli­
tion of the practice of treating. It
is believed by the promoters ot' the
movement that the cause of tem­
perance wi.l he advancod if men
will abandon the habit oi calling
their associates into saloons for
drinks. This belief is based upon
the sound argument that most of
the drinking is due to misdirected
sociability, and it is argued that if
men will try to be sociable at other
places than saloons there will be
less drinking, and consequently
less drunkenness.
There is no doubt as to the per­
nicious influences of the treating
habit. Men who go into saloons to
quench a real or imaginary thirst
will as a rule go out again immed­
iately they secured their drinks
but if they "strike a crowd" at
tho bar there is danger that they
will be involved in around of treats
that will put several drinks into
their atomacha instead of the single
swallow that was contemplated.
Some years ago a member of
the Wisconsin Legislature tried
to have treating abolished by
statute, but his effort won only
badinage and ridicule, because it
would be impossible to cure the
evil in that way. The campaign
agsinst the treating habit inaugur­
ated at Columbus, Ohio, among
the Knights of Columbus, will be
effective. Men who are pledged to
abstain from treating will exert an
influence upon their fellows by
courageously and openly standing
by their pledges/ and declaring
their reasons for so doing. Men
will not set out on this course
alone, because as a rule they are
afraid that their action will be
takeu as evidence of penuriousness.

Prof Edwin E. Sparks of the
University of Chicago has created
quite a stir among the stut
dents of one of his olasses in Am­
erican history by novel theory re­
garding the cause of strikes and
rise of trusts. According to Prof.
Sparks, strikes are not due to un­
usually hard conditions among
workmen, but rather to great and
universal prosperity and general
confidence, he further asserted'
always come just before a panic.
"Confidence and prosperity
such as we are now [enjoying,"
said the professor, "always stimu­
late speculation and over-produc­
tion. In times of prosperity a
great amount of capital is seeking
to be put some use. This is the
direct cause of trusts. The same
prosperity that fosters trusti
brings about strikes. You never
hear of a trust being formed or
strike being formed or a strike
being instituted during a period
of depression. Strikers have lit
tie chance of getting satisfaction
during a panic or securing an im^
provemeut in their condition.
After seasons of prosperity comes
a panic. By the very nature of
things contraction must follow
the inflation which the over pro­
duction has created. We are
now swinging to prosperity."
Prof. Sparks illustrated hi#
theory by an example taken from
the period which "nis lecture cov­
ered. He said that in 1793 gen­
eral confidence had led to wonder
fnl prosperity which had been
followed in 1797 by a great de
wrfiasion.—St. Paul DisDatch

The proclamation by Gen. Kit­
chener threatening the Boers with
perpetual banishment and pro­
perty confiscation will reach the
ears of mea who feel that they
have already been banished, and
who have had all their property
destroyed through the ravages of
war. Under present conditions
the burghers find the life of the
bushwacker more acceptable than
a
life of restraint and poverty.
Therefore the war will probably
go on until the Boers are worn
away to still smaller bands of raid­
ers, and eventually wiped out.

anything else for indigestion and

Maine is now .the state of pulp, not
of timber. At least one-half of the logs
cut in this state will be consumed by
gslnderB instead of by saw. The pulp
men are able to pay more than the
lumbermen for the logs because a
thousand feet of logs will yield more
value ln pulp than in timber, and thus
the pulp men are masters of the job
market. When prices of timber art
high, the sawmill men can afford to
pay good prices, but the timber market
is subject to violent fluctuations, and
this spring timber is selling at low fig­
ures, while the great demand for logs
to feed the pulp mills has sent the
price of logs to the highest pitch on
record. Few of the sawmill men own
any timberland on the Penobscot, and
so they are compelled to buy all theli
logs and the prices this spring have
ranged from $14.50 to $15, while the
small lots now remaining unsold are
held at the heretofore unheard-of price
of $16.50 a thousand feet. At the same
time the price of spruce timber in New
York ranges from $16 to $18.50 a thou­
sand feet for the various widths at
random, while the price in Bangor is
$12.50 to $15, or less than the price of
the logs. The only thing that makes
sawing possible in these conditions is
the fact that logs and lumber are meas­
ured, by different scales, a thousand
feet of logs yielding from 1,150 to 1,250
feet of timber. This overrun and the
money received for the waste, which
now goes to the pulp mills, enable the
timber manufacturers to come out
about even, or possibly to make a
small profit when all conditions are
favorable and there are no losses. It
is said that the pulp men can pay $20
a thousand feet for spruce logs and
still make a good profit.—Lewiston
(Me.) Journal.
WOMAN'S SYMPATHY.
Men Succeed When Women Relatives
Appreciate Their Worth.
The powers of wise appreciation of
woman should be cultivated to include
more than the children in the home.
The brother or husband or father, who
fights the battle of life, may need the
helpfulness of sympathy and proper
appreciation more than imagined. No
man boldly asks for it that is be­
neath his sense of pride but he needs
it and welcomes it. The wife who
gives it ungrudgingly by entering into
the difflcultes of her husband's toil
and worry proves a more important
factor in his development and ultimate
success than she might be if she labor­
ed side by side with him at the desk
in the shop or in the field. Woman's
mission in life is to encourage and
sympathize show forth her steady con­
fidence in the ultimate success of
those she loves to share with-husband,
father or brother the troubles and dif­
ficulties that constantly beset all in
the struggle for existence in sort to
appreciate the spirit of every effort
put forth in the right cause by feeing
praise where needed, and blame it may
be, when demanded. Discouragement
has been the rock on which most men
have failed. Many men have succeed­
ed simply because their wives have ap­
preciated their worth, realized the pe­
culiar weak and strong qualities in
them, and have then steadfastly en­
couraged them to continuous effort.
They were not allowed to fail because
they were told that they possessed
qualities that would in the end win.
The world often tails to appreciate the
value of a man because it has no time
to stop and discriminate, but the wife
or mother' who thus fails falls short
of her highest gift, her greatest oppor­
tunity.—Dr. Atkinson in Ledger
Monthly.
When the Atlantic Was Con tin eat.
Though separated from the Old
World by thousands of miles of ocean
the American continent contains traces
of extinct civilization as advanced as
those of Egypt or Assyria. In Yucatan,
in Mexico, there are to be found ruins
of magnificent buildings similar in ar­
chitecture to those of Egypt, while
traces of scripture and writing exist
also strongly resembling those of that
country. There are also proofs that
Egypt and Yueataa strongly resembled
each other in religion, art and lan­
guage. Scientists attribute the whole
thing to pranks on the part of our
planet. They hold that this portion of
America was at one time connected
with the mainland of the Old World,
and that where the Atlantic now is
there was once a great continent.—

-'-Nest In a Horseshoe.
Thirteen old horseshoes were hang­
ing one day on the back of a garden
wall close to an old boiler which work­
men were removing and replacing by
anew one, a very noisy piece of work,
when, in no wise deterred by this, a
pair of wrens built their nest in the
midst of the cluster of horse shoes and
then brought up their young. The
mother bird having been found one
day drowned in a pail of water stand­
ing near, her mate tended and cared
for the young until they were fledged
and flown. The horseshoes containing
the nest still hang on the wall at
Everthorpe hall. East Yorkshire, Eng­
