' ORGANIZE. -~-rOne of the most Important duties In connection with a campaign is that of thorough and efficient organization. Speakers may awaken enthusiasm, devotion to principles may inspire desire for success and wrongs, long borne by a people, may Incite distrust of and resentment against the party in power, but these things all go for naugh. in a campaign unless they find expression in a compact organization which is designed to bring out the entire vote of the party on election day. Such a work cannot be begun too early or be prosecuted with too much rigor. The expectation that every man will come out and vote is often disappointing, and nothing is more common than for party managers to find the vote falling off on election day and be wholly unable to account for the slump. The effective remedy against such a condition is organization —an organization that will impress upon every Democrat the fact that his vote is necessary to success. The best way to do this is to hold precinct meetings from ume to time, encourage the voters to attend them and allot to each some particular part in the work of the campaign. Votes are made among the thinking, discriminat ing class, not on election day. bat during the earlier stages of the campaign, and it is in heart-to-heart talks, such as would come from neighborhood meetings, that Democrats could be most sensibly impressed with the necessity for each to bear some part in the work of the campaign. The State Centra] Committee expects to supply speakers for all localities and there will be a liberal distribution of literature bearing upon the Issues, but outside of these and more effective than these, will be the organizations which can be perfected in precincts or neighborhoods if active Democrats will take hold of the work. Let the effort be made now in every precinct in this county. The party is united, the Republicans are on the defensive. and organization—systematic, •arrest, effective —is only wanting to ■assure success

ROOSEVELT AS A FREE TRADER. President Roosevelt started out in politics as an anti-protectionist and favored the abolition of all tariff duties. He joined a free trade club in New York and continued his membership during all the time he was a member of the assembly and until after the nomination of Janies G. Blaine in 1884. In the life of Thomas H. Benton, Author Roosevelt writes, among other things, in regard to the tariff as follows : “Political economists have pretty generally agreed that protection is vicious in theory and harmful in practice; but if the majority of the people in interest wish it, and it affects only themselves, there is no earthly reason why they should not be allowed to try the experiment to their heart’s content. The trouble is that it really does affect only themselves, and in 1828 the evil was peculiarly aggravated on account of the unequal way in which the proposed law would affect different sections. It purported to benefit the rest of the country, but it undoubtedly worked real injury to the planter strtes, and there is small small ground for wo«<ior that the irritation over the region affected should have been so intense.” Again, in speaking of the tariff, he says: "In 1828 the tariff, whether it benefited the country as a whole or not, unquestionably harmed the south, and in a federal union it is most unwise to pass laws which shall benefit one part of the community to the hurt of another part, when the latter receives no compensation.” In commentig upon the speech of Clay in defense of a protective tariff, Author Roosevelt says: “Clay's assertions as to what the tariff has done for the west were equally ill founded, as Benton showed in a good speech wherein he described picturesquely enough the industries and general condition of his portion of the country, and asserted, with truth, that its revived prosperity was due to its own resources, entirely independent of federal aid or legislation.” No one ever heard of Faeodore Roosevelt becomfng a protectionist untill he became the Republican candidate for vice p.esident and now aa the candidate for president A Peru 11 Mr Grn«mrni, Berlin has probably one oi the most peculiar ornaments for a reading room that has ever been seen in a simllat position in a civilized country. This is a gravestone which stands, large and massive, in one corner of a small room It is not only a gravestone, but is in Its legitimate position at the head of e grave. The history of its location in the house is interesting. It was not put up in the house, but the house was built around the stone. Its original position was in the burial grounds in the churchyard at St Hedwig's.

It Waa Once the Property of Mary, Queen of Scot.. The descendants of Mary Setoun, one of the four maids of honor to Mary, queen of Scots, have in their possession a curious watch, which was given by that queen to her favorite. This watch, which is in the shape of a miniature tkull. is about two inches and a half in diameter. It is supposed to have beer purchased by Mary herself when on b visit to Blois with her husband, the dauphin of France, as it has the name of a celebrated Blois manufacturer engraved on it. The entire skull is curiously engraved On the forehead there is a picture ot Death, with the usual scythe and hourglass and sandglass. He is depicted a* standing between a palace and a hovel, to show that be is no respecter of persons. and underneath is the familial quotation from Horace. “Pallida mors aequo pulsat pede pauperum tabernas Regunique turres.” At the back of the skull is another representation, this one being of Time devouring everything. Time also carries a scythe, and beside him is the emblem of eternity—the serpent with its tail in its mouth. The upper section of the skull is <1« vlded into two pictures. On one siilt ts the crucifixion, with the Marys kneeling at the foot of the cross, and on the other side are Allan and Eve surrounded by animals in the Garden of Eden. Below the?e pictures, running right nround the skull, there is an openwork band, to allow the sovtid of the striking of the watch to Le heard. This open work is a series of designs cut to rep resent the various emble:_s cf the cru cifix.on. such as scourges, the cross swords, spears tile lantern list d in the garden, etc. All of the carvings havt appropriate Latin quotations. By reversing the skull and holding the upper part in the palm of the han< and lifting the under jaw on its liingi the watch may be opened, and on tin plate inside is a representation of tin stable at Bethlehem, with the shep herds and their flocks in the distance. The works of the watch are in the brains of the skull, the dial plate being where the roof of the mouth would b< in a reul skull. This Is of silver and gold, with elaborate scrolls, while lb. hours are marked in large Roman let ters. The works are remarkably com plete, even to a large silver bell wit! a musical sound, which holds tin works in the skull when the watch Is closed. This curious old watch is still in per feet order, ami when wound every da; keeps accurate time. It is too large to be worn, and was probably intended for a desk or private altar.—Philadelphia Ledger.
