AS YOU GO THROUGH LIFE.
Don't look for the flaws as you

them.

It is bettter by far to hunt for a

Than the spot on the sun abid

must
means to all mien, : freedom,: not ;
conquest, and that 'all Demo;-,
crats can unite on. a pohcy which, ,
giving1 pledges!pf .independence
to the inhabitants 'of the Philip
pines, commits .'our government
to the faithful discharge of the
obligations and responsibilities
whicli it xwesf tp . civilization as
the result of its providential oc
cupation of the islands of the
archipelago."" This principle, it
abSUi Lb, is, iruui lis wry iiuluiu,
of ' 'paramount impoi lance," and
it ; is the basis fpr Democratic
unity. 'With .reference to the
Chicago platform' it is said :
x lie oiu issues, vvniuii stciiiu in
no - need of pfinjtion, should be
reafiirnied, in ''it paragraph and
the 'new ones dlearly nd vigor
ously defined, so that the Demo
cratic position .will be in no
danger of doubt or misconstruc
tion. Mr. 3ryail "merely recog-.
nized existing " conditions when
he said in his Iowa speech that
the currency question cannot be
inade'the most conspicuous issue
next year. ' Pemocrats may feel
in their bones, as the saying is,
that it is the most important, but
circumstances -will prevent it
from beingr the most conspicur
bus; and this, no matter what the
party " may do in the premises.
Public attention, &nd therefore
public discussion, will be focused
on the newer issues which have
grown out' of 'the Rblican
party's management oi :::; iirs.
The Constitution xoints ;o Mr.
Bryan as the 'natural Icjulsr in
such a campaign: as it -oposcs,
and expresses the hope that the
gold Democrats will all enlist
with the party upon such a plat
form as it suggests, seeing that
"nothing can e done with the
currency questibn at this time."
This editorial is remarkable
for several things: (1) It de
clares the Philippine question to
be of ' 'over-shadowing import
ance;" (2) It favors re-affirming
the Chicago platform, but dis
missing it with a paragragh; (3)
It " advocates "making the next
campaign on thf 'hewer issues"
whieb have arisen since the last;
(4) It asserts that nothing can
be done with the currrency
question at this time; (5) It makes
no reference to trusts as an issue
in the next election.
The editorial as a whole is a
large concession to conservatism

it contains the better.' n If it is to
be used for feeding stock an A in
creased - percentage ; of protein
and of fat is desirable .
The question .which Mr. Hpp
kins studied and which he cldims
to have solved satisfactorily is :
Can the corn grower; by ' pursu
ing similar methods, increase the
percentage of starch or of pro
tein inhis grain, so as to be able
to offer to the distiller or the
stock raiser an article specially
fitted for their purposes cIf the
corn raiser is able to dp that he
can ecmmmd a higher price for
his product. The glucose manur
facturer will pay little more
per bushel for grain which He is
satisfied -contains a specially
high percentage of ." carbohy
drates. . After a series of experiments
extending xxver three -years, Mr;
Hopkins is convinced that by
proper selection of seed steadily
kept lip the percentage of any of
the cdmponetat parts of corn caii
be increased-or'-"diminished1 as
may be desired.
It is' ea'sy f o' 1 select by mechan
ical inspection : with either high
or low percentage or protein,' fat
or starch. Ah intelligent farmer
may therefore pick ..out the seed
which ' are richest- in ' that con
stituent which he desires his corn
io c cr-uain1 the most of.
Mr. Hopkins has shown by
actual experiment that this can
be successfully done. He be
lieves that his discovery will be
of great value to farmers, and it
has attracted much Attention in
agricultural" journals. Atlanta
