With average crops 6 cents a pound seemsto be the average gold standard price. It 1s now bélow that figure. Farm- érs need look for no permanent advances in the prices of their products, when ordinarily full crops have been madz, until silver as well as gold is coined and used as money of final redemption. —Statesviile Mascott. Hanna onthe Stump. Senator Hanna made a speech in Ohio Saturday, at the opening of the Republican compaign, and if the newspaper reports of it are correct, it was a strange jumble of words and ideas. He declared, among other things, that “the Republican party is responsible through that measure (the Dingley law) for bringing back this prosperity.” Then he said that he had about made up his mind that “the Lord is a Republican,” and that it is perhaps on this account the Creator has caused short crops of wheat in foreign countries. There you have the average better times and higher nrices. The whole blasphemous theory is that the Lord looked en the Republican party and found st good; that He then inspired the Dingley law; and that, in order to make sure of the resuit, cut off the crops of wheat in those countries which have heretofore competed with the United States in the world’s markets. Mr. Hanna is the first respon- sible leader, 80 far as we know, who has had the gall to announce that Republican legislation has brought about the return of more tolerable times, and even he is inclined to leave a loophote of escape by the suggestion that the Lord is a Republican. Of course, we cannot, at’ this distance, judge of the intelligence of... Republican yoters in Ohio. That State has given to the pub- oc Half the: success of sappost of the ragtag and bob-| to..%in the and a special correspon- dent says that “the large amount ag ote La suggest ; ; bat : we do belieye that they need to be yolitical ‘honesty.

We cannot imagine a more de- pressing: ‘spectacle ‘than that aftorded by euch men as Hanna aud Foster standing before 4 crowd of gullibles and proclaim- ing their own political honesty.— Atlanta Constitution. Don’t Kick or “Knock.” If your neighbor is prosperous let him prosper. Don’t grunt, growl or grumble. Say 2 good word for him and let it go at that. Don’t be a knocker. Your turn ;will come- No one man is the whole show. If vou see the town is moving along, feel good about it. Heip things along. Shove a little, Push. Try. and get some of the benefit yourself. Don’t stand around like a ‘chilly old cadaver. Don’t waste your time feeling sore, because some other fe'low has .a little more sand and sexse than you have. Do a little hustling yourself. Don’t be a knocker. Ifyou say a good word, say it like a prince. If you are fali of. bile and dis- keep your mouth shut. Don’t be a knocker. No man made a cent knocking. No man ever gets rich or happy minding eyery body’s business but his own. No man ever helped himself up permanently by knocking his neighbors down. Give up a kind word. Giveitliberally. It won’t cost you a cent, and you may want one youself some day. You may haye thousands today, and next day without the price of ‘a shave. Sodon’t be a knocker. You can’t affordit. It won’t pay. There’s nothing in it- If you want to throw something at semebody, throw cologne. Or roses. Don’t throw brickbats. Or mud. Don’t be a knocker. If you must kick, go around the barn and take a good kick at yourself For if you feel that way, yourethe man that needs kicking. But whatever you do, don’t be a knocker.—Cincinnati Times Star. ay aenerninnn te Are We Better Off ?
