than human beings, and spared the woman cast to them in the arena. It is astonishing how little sympathy women have for women. In the home the mistress sees the maid with the signs of suffering she recognizes so well, but she does not lighten the sick girl’s load by a touch of lier finger. In the store the forewoman sees the pallor and exhaustion which mark womanly weakness, but allows nothing for them. It is work or quit. Doctor Pierce’s Favorite Prescription makes weak women strong and sick women well, by cqring the womanly diseases which undermine the health and sap the strength. "Favorite Prescription” establishes regularity, dries weakeniug drains, heals inflammation find ulceration, and cures female weakness. •‘ When 1 first commenced using Dr. Pierce’s medicines,” writes Mrs. George A. Strong of Cansevoort, Saratoga Co.. N. Y. «I was suffering from female weakness, a disagreeable drain oeanng-down pains, weak and tired feeling ali ihe. time. I dragged around in that way for xwo years, then I began taking your medicine. After taking the first bottle I began to feel netter.

Both Carrie Nation and Hon. W. J. Bryan are to be among the attractions at the South Dakota Chautauqua this summer. The management is to be congratulated.

The steel trust has advanced the wages of Its great army of employees ten per cent., which will add about $4,000,000 to its annual pay-roll. This is a just but politic move, as it will forestall a like demand from the employees. They have been working full time at full wages, which were considered entirely satisfactory two or three years ago. Since that time, however, the price of Jiving has materially increased, the steel corporation is making greater profits, and it is but fair that the wages should be raised.

It is perfectly natural that when evidences of prosperity are all about with f; ctories busy and orders profit able, the workman should want an in crease in bis wages—a share of that prosperity. One of the most difficult problems comes, however, when times become less prosperous or even hard. A rate of wages has been established under prosperous conditions which the workman comes to consider as a standard—his worth, his right—and when it comes necessary to reduce wages then comes bitterness and cries against extortion of corporations The difference between strikes against the reduction of wages and those made to secure an increase in wages is the difference between hard times and prosperity.

The War Department has ordered 100 bolos as a trial substitute for the army bayonet. The bolo is a cut lass something like the Cuban machete, and is an eminently better weapon than the bavonet, at least for guerrila warfare. For such a purpose the bayonet is as poor a means of offence or defence as the army saber was found to be in Indian fighting, where the bowie knife was the standard. A bolo which serves all the purposes of a good hatchet about camp, but in time of war can be used either as a broad sword or attached to a rifle as a sharp-edged bayonet, will be an improvement over the present army weapon. Its adoption by the government, however, may be looked upon as the signal for an anti-imperialistic outbreak against our evolution into an Oriental military despotism.

Two Important Platform Pronouncements

Of the Republican State Convention

By Ron. Addison C. Harris

Of Indianapolis

Nominations are as important as elections. In many localities a nomination is equivalent to an election. In some the election may turn on the character «?.d superior fitness of the candidates. And in every case It Is quite as essential that the candidate shall be the choice of his party, or that the officer should be elected by a majority of the people. Yet up to this time very little has been done In Indiana toward securing the integrity of party nominations.

The Indiana Republican state convention took two steps forward toward better modes of nominations, which seem to open the way to practical reform. The first is: “The state central committee is instructed to prepare and adopt suitable and proper rules and Regulations which shall in the future govern the mode and manner of the selection of delegates, to state, congressional and legislative conventions.” The Beeond is: “The Republican party demands the adoption and enforcement of proper laws regulating nominations; securing to every man the right to express his choice for the candidates of the party to which he belongs—whether ths nominations are made by a direct primary or a delegate or a mass convention.”

The Necessity for Reform. At the present time there are no uniform rules touching the selection of . delegates. Sometimes they are chosen by county conventions, sometimes by the people, and sometimes by the candidates themselves. When a candidate selects his own delegates they become often a political asset which he may use as he wishes to help himself and his friends and hurt his opponents. Such a delegation often divides its vote equally between all the candidates for one office. For practical purposes they might as well not vote at all. Sometimes a group of candidates hplding personal delegations form a combination and dominate the convention. It is to reform these abuses that the state committee is commanded to formulate a body of rules “suitable and proper,” to the end that a majority vote in a convention shall represent the real and free

choice of a majority of the delegates. The Idea of investing a body of men with this power is drawn from our election laws. There the chairmen of the political parties choose men who, with the governor, make the state board of election commissioners, and who supervise the election of state officers. It is quite natural to give to the state committee the power to supervise the party nominations which are of interest throughout the state. And it is not improbable that the legislature will give to these party regulations the quality of law.

A Fundamental Doctrine Declared.

The ether declaration is of equal Importance. It is that every man has the right to express his choice for the candidates of his party, and demands both the adoption and enforcement of proper laws to carry out this doctrine and enforce this right. The convention did not and could not well formulate the details. It is not the province of a great convention to convert Itself into a legislative body. It Is enough that it declares a fundamental doctrine and directs its application to be made through the legislative and executive departments. The basic doctrine is that the people acting individually must have the right under the laws to make choice of their party candidates. The method of making the nominations is left where it now rests, in the people. Many counties In this state follow the convention method; as many adopt the primary election. Neither is necessary to be torn up. The people are to have the right of choice in their several localities whether they will nominate in the primary or in convention. Indeed, they may meet in mass convention if they wish.

Safeguarding the Ballot. Be the ‘‘mode and manner” of nomination what it may, the nominations must be under “proper laws.” This means, of course, that the right to express the choice must be safeguarded as securely as at an election. Honest secret ballots must be provided, and they can be furnished in a delegate convention as well as In a primary or a mass convention. Corruption and bribery must be prohibited and punished when practiced In the nominations or at elections.

An opportunity is afforded the state committee and the legislature to act conjointly, and with the equal co-oper-ation of the other state committees to establish a plain and practical system of party nominations as free and as fair as our own party elections. Importance of Pure Nominations. Pure nominations are as essential to good government as pure elections. If the one is corrupt the other is corrupted. The sentiments expressed by the state convention reflect public opinion which governs conventions and legislatures. This demand for wholesome laws governing nominations is not limited to any party or locality, although it found no expression in the Democratic state platform recently adopted. It remains only to express the wishes of the whole people in clear and simple words, and they will be adopted as another step forward in good government.

FOR THE LITTLE ONES.

Master Harold and His Cute Shetland Pony Colt. About two years ago I invested in a pair of Shetland ponies, with the idea, first, of pleasing the little boys, and, secondly, I thought they might be profitable to raise for marI 6end you a photograph of the first pony bred and raised at Hickory Hill farm, shown at Fig. 333, with his young master, Harold Morse, aged three. This colt’s dam was less than three years old at the time the colt was foaled. She is thirty-eight inches tall and weighs about 300 pounds. At birth the

A PAIR OF FARM BABIES.

colt weighed twenty-seven pounds and was twenty-two inches tall. As far as we have found, the pure bred ponies are very docile and safe for the children. A very good illustration of this was an incident that occurred two days after this colt was born. I had turned the mare and colt in the back yard, and soon after we missed Master Harold. We found him in the attitude in which he appears in the picture. The mare was standing close over them, very watchful, but not at all inclined to be cross. This little mare is not a “fish cart” pony, though, by any means and can draw the two older boys, aged eight and eleven years, five miles an hour and has made one trip of twenty miles in a day this fall. The boys have broken a two-year-old this summer to drive to the cart, and it is hard telling which learned the more, the boys or the pony. I also have learned a few things about Eonies and some about men too. I ave found that some of the mares are nonbreeders and also that it is well to have a certificate of registry come with the pony, or he may grow and grow and grow until he is just an undersized horse, too small for a horse and too big for a pony. Dealers in this class hurt the sale of real ponies, because they offer their stock at low prices and cause dissatisfaction among those who buy. —J. Grant Morse in Rural New Yorker.
