The Republicpn party, the recognized corruptionists ard spoils hunters, has been almost beside itself since coming in to victory on Populist shoulders at the last election. The scramble for office and the eagerness to get “relief” has been 890 fierce amcng the fusionists that one disgrace- ful feature has followed another faster than could be enumerated, The greedy pie hunters in their scramble for spoils have fallen out with each other and begun to ex- pose each other's rascality. Otho Wilson and Marion Butler have been indulging in some slashes that promise to grow stil! more interesting, and Governor Russell and H. L. Grant have gone to talking about one anoth- er’s “general cussedness” and using such compliments as Hes- gian, skunk, sneak, traitor, and the hke. And this is the gang tha me white men in North Carolina helped to put in office. General Demand for Postal Banks No propobition that has come before the people of late years has received such general and hearty approval from the press of the entire country as the plan for the establishment of postal savings banks. Not only do the big dailies of the cities as a rule approve of the agitation, but the newspapers in the smaller towns almost without exception com- wend the movement. While the commenis in the newspapers of the north and west are most nunerous, the press of the east and south is by no means backward in supporting the agi- tation.. Occasionally an old time Democratic paper of the south opposes the plan on the ground that it 1s not the function of the government to do anything more than collect the reyenues and protect life and property. These are the extreme representatives of the school which holds that that government is best which goyerns least. But for the most part the papers of the south sup- port the mcyement for postal _ banks, and call attenticn to the especial need for them in that ection of the country, where banks of all kinds are scarce and where places of safe deposit for small savings are very far apart. _ Inexamining the many hun- ds ‘of exchanger that come into ty newspaper office from all softhe country one cannot )impréssed with the atten~' ==lable. comment.

Fc enn | Cut Postage Stamps in Half. “Sometimes we find that people have cut stamps in half when they want one of half the denom- ination.” said the redheaded postal clerk in charge of the od- dities of mailing matter, as he entered in his “unmailable list” eggs, bacon, cucumbers an entire goose, 4 rat’s head and some bug poison, according to the Chicago Times Herald. “You would expect that the people who do that would be immigrants with the odor of the steerage atill clinging in their clothes. Itisbyno means the case. Now, hereis a letter bear- ing the half of a four cent stamp,” sowing an enyelope addressed in such a precise hand that indi- cated a New England ongin. I notified the sender by the ad- dress in the corner ot the enve- lope that her letter was being ‘held up’ and when the next day 1 saw a@ little, white haired old lady in black come briskly in I guessed correctly that she had come for this letter. When I told her that it had not gone because of a mutilated stamp she looked surprised even when I showed her the enyelope. In a sweet, gentle. but protesting way she insisted that the stamp was not mutilated—that having no 2 cent stamp shehad cut a 4 cent stamp in two—and she added reproachfully that she was sorry that there had been any dolay ! “ en ling you to buy at oxe protit.

It is too often the case that whatever plots of land are unsuit- able for cultivation because of their smallness or because inconveniently situated are left in this wild condi- tion and mar the effect of an other- wise well kept farm or beautiful home. In a recent report on ‘‘Experi- mental Farms,” issued by the Cana- dian government, W. T. Macoun, foreman of forestry, makes many suggestions as to how these unsight- ly spote may be made attractive and productive. Mr. Macoun says: ‘‘No matter how small the plot of ground or haw situated, there is no reason why it should be an eyesore. It is this utilization of every nook, corner and cranny and the making of two blades of grass to grow where a weed grew before that has made rural England so beautiful to the eye and so pleasing to the esthetic sense. The agricultural and pastoral landscapes in England, where the little farms are ‘green to the very door,’ have been described as ‘jewel scenery.’ Theré seems to beno good reason why the rural districts of New Jersey, New York and of other states could not be made equally at- tractive and fruitful.’’ Mr. Macoun has utilized all of these waste places about the offices and buildings of the forestry depart- ment at Central Experimental farm. In his report he thus writes of the improvement of these odd corners: ‘The land adjacent to the office and other buildings, which has been devoted to the cultivation of orna- mental trees and shrubs, looked bet- CHURCi{kS, I tt BAPTI51—Services every;‘Sunday, moring and evening.
