The mo3t significant development of the political campaign recently closed is the growth of socialism as an issue iu the United States. Mr. Debs received for president in 1900 less than 100,000 votes, while the total socialistic vote at the recent election ia something like a half million. The eooialieta have now displaced the prohibitionists as the third party in the nation, in point of number of votes cast. Nearly 10,000 votes were cast for the two sooialistio parties in Indiana this year, as against 3,000 two years ago. “ The greatest increases iu the sooialistio vote were ehowu in Allen, Vanderbnrg, Bartholomew, Olay, Dearborn, Elkhart, Greene, Lake, Madison, Huntington, Mai ion, St. Joeeph, Vigo and Wayne counties. In part this growth in the sooialistio vote may be attributed to the disoontent of the Democratic masses with their own leadership.

The Indianapolis News had a oartoon showing Uncle Sam seated at his Thanksgiving Day dinner, and everything on the table or around it was labled "trust.” The tnrkey was from the meat trust, the oysters from the oyster trust, the big bottle on the aide-board from the liquor trust, the box if cigars from the oigar trust, tbe side-board and chairs from the furniture trust ete. All of whioh may be very sad and deplorable, bat we notioe that the old man waa sitting down to a mighty big lay-out of good grub and trimmings, which never was able to do in any of the glorious free trade times the News is always working and honing for. The old man wore, good clothes too, and a satisfied expression, and we warrant be had no fear of showing a Cleveland badge in his rear when he got on bis feet to drink a toast to Republican prosperity, oat of a glass trust tumbler.

SAVED HIS CAPITAL.

▲ Bank President Wh* Did Not Poaget Hla Old Time Friend. ‘Tome in in the morning, and the bank will have something for you to do," said the president of a Broadway bank to a meek looking man whose hair was white and whose eyes were marked by deep crow’s feet as he left the office, with a bright look of satisfaction on his face that bed not been There before. — “Let me tell you a story,” said the president as he motioned to. me to remain. “I was Living in lowa, and three city lots composed the capital that I looked to to give me a start in business. I held on to them for a long time while working for $35 a month in a real estate office until they had advanced in value to $3,000, when 1 sold them to a St. Louis man. "It was nearly 3 o'clock, and 1 hurried to the bank. I made out the deposit slip and laid it. with my gold and bankbook, in front of the receiving teller. “ ‘lt is closing time now,’ he said, ‘and you had better not make your deposit until morning.’ I—- “ ‘Charley,’ I said, for I knew him well, ‘that is ridiculous. It is a half minute before closing time, and I insist that you take my deposit. I don’t want to be robbed of all that I have on earth Befbre~mbrurngy r “ ‘I will fix it for you,’ he said as he gathered up the money and bankbook and disappeared in the vault with them. In a minute he was back, and I was astonished at his actions. ‘“I have put it in my private box,’ he continued, ‘where it will be safe, and in the morning you can make the deposit if you want to.’ “Next morning the bank's failure was announced. “I hurried to Charley's house, which was near by, and ask&d him about the bank. “ ‘Yes, it has failed and won’t pay a cent,’ he said. ‘Just five minutes before you came in with your money yesterday the directors decided not to open this morning. I was told to give out no information until business hours today, and that is tbe reason I didn't tell you. If you had made your deposit, the money would have all gone. Now it is safe in my box, and you can have It any moment you please.’ “I did get it, and it was the foundation of my fortune. The man who waa Just here is that Charley and was the teller who saved my capital for me.”

POULTRY POINTERS.

Pure water ia more essential than clean grass. Even though turkeys are good foragers it will not pay to let them go without proper feeding. Everything in the rearing of yoting poultry depends upon their‘care and management at least until well feathered. Fowls inclined to fatten too easily are not good layers. The flesh they carry makes them Lazy, and this never promotes laying. Middlings make a good food for poultry, but if wet up alone it is too sticky. The better plan is to mix with bran or corn and wet with milk or scalding water. Whitewash -is better than paint on the poultry houses, for the reason that it costs less and has a purifying influence. It may be applied as often aa once a month to advantage: The properties of sunflower seed are peculiar, and a small quautlty fed at the proper time will essentially aid in Imparting to the plumage of adult fowls a gloss that no other grain will produce.

Galnsboronarh and Hla Carrier. One of the earliest members of the Royal academy, it was Gainsborough’s custom to have his pictures conveyed to the metropolis by a prosperous London carrier, a Mr. Wiltshire of Shockerwiek, near Bath. This man refused to accept payment on the ground that he loved pictures too well. He was not, however, allowed to go unrewarded, for Gainsborough presented him with six of his best works, and some Idea of their ultimate value may be gained from the fact that when at length they were sold the National gallery secured two, “The Parish Clerk of Brad ford-on-A von,’’ for 500 guineas, and “The Harvest Wagon,” for £2,500, these prices being considered low. Later “The Sisters” from another gallery realized close upon £IO,OOO. Nature aid Poetry. Environment aids poetry, but does not create it Nature is the grand agent in making poetry, and poetry is present wherever nature Is.

The 6,379,128 passengers oarried over Santa Fe system lines the last fisoal year traveled in the aggregate 607,670,582 miles, or a little more than 95 miles per passenger. Considering the faot that so many made long trips to California, the percentage of „ “short-trippers” mast have been quite large to bring the average down to less than a hundred. It has been found that editors’ journeys average only 50 miles, which faot effectually disposes of the musty joke about newspaper men riding on passes to save board bills. They apparently stay at home more than other folks do. High Quality Wins. We sold our first oar of Ben Hnr Flour in nine week. Another oar of 700 saoks just received.
