' Famines Of Ages Are Recalled Shelby, R-5, April 27. — As peo ple who read my communications are aware, I don't feature as a news grubber. This department of writ ing does not require anything but a tissue of dry, dismal facts express ed in turgid English. Then when the contributors of "news", so-called finds a dearth of material from which to draw, —he draws a recital of hard times as a sweet morsel under his tongue. As everybody living is fam iliar as to destitution that prevailed during and just after the close of the War Between the States and as this topic has been worked overtime by the alleged gifted ink-slingers; I shall try to chronicle some hard times worth talking about" that have beep, handed down by history and tradition. The first of these is so remote that the memory of man goeth not back to the contrary; for • resteth for confirmation in the s acred chronicles. As most of people do not read the Bible, it will be startling news to most of your read ei*. I have had long-legged, wild-eyed oracles to rebuke me for attending Sunday school and learning the un seai'chable riches; but my conscience a Pproves my course and also the ethics I practice when in attendance, lam censured and criticised for piom Ptly leaving the church building a t close of religious exercises, when decorum requires that I ' e 'P throng the aisles and shed tran- c i u ilizing tears on the accumulated mange collected on back of some law 'ess' depraved roughneck. I care noth 'nP about what appeals to such cat t e . for I am enjoined by Holy Writ n °t to cast pearls before swine nor that which is holy unto the dogs. r P e riod of hard times and des -'tution recorded in sacred History, " r . in the Book of Exodus'; be lr,ning, really in Genesis. Joseph one ot the wisest, purest and exemplary characters. Like all "j cen t white men, he was the envy and was imprisoned at of a hellion in high life ' " n, luct unbecoming any decent • 'te man. Of course the charge was and malicious; and his skill as f n inl,a 'preter of dreams brought ' ni 'n demand among prominent prisoners. This caused his re *rom prison and, later, King ai aoh had two very disquieting UiPY.t - me conscience 01 one of the liberated prisoners smote him, and he performed an act of tardy justice by calling attention of His Highness to the gifted interpreter of dreams. Two prisoners were fav ored by his miraculous skill; but one lost his head and was not pre pared to show his gratitude. At any rate seven years of plenty were foretold and seven of famine Joseph was promoted to second place in the kingdom; and during the sev en years of plenty, garnered the wonderful yields of grain into gran aries of Egypt. Upper Egypt is a very fertile region, and its productive ness is enhanced by overflow of the Nile. According to sacred narrative the Israelites had a visitation of des titution that would have made the hard times co-incident to posterity of Jacob, headed by the old patriarch himself migrating to Egypt. It will be remembered that a "starving period" occurred in both the Jamestown and New England colonies. Judging from the historical account, Captain John Smith saved the Jamesttown colony, for a gang of political trimmers called them selves gentlemen; but Smith saw that they went to work. He enforced the scriptural injunction:—"lf a man will not work neither shall he eat." New England had a more inhospit 5^ V' *' Paid to Winners of *.j£ -.

C) COURIER able climate and a very sterile soil, but in the language of the cowboy epitaph:—"Every man did his d— dest; angels can do no more." As all well-informed people know, the Irish depend for subsistence largely upon the potato of that name and the Emerald Isle is very fertile. They have suffered from at least half a dozen serious famines within the last fifty years, as have the Chinese and the natives of India. The time is coming here when grim visaged squalor and famine will pre vail if people don't practice skillful and intensive cultivation. We are now assured that lawyers and poli ticians are our prosperous farmers and husbandmen. Those of us rear ed to hold plowhandles, to swing a scythe and cradle, to clear new ground, pile and burn logheaps, mow grass by hand or by machinery, rais ing turnips, melons and potatoes of two varieties, know how much of that to believe. Some people regard an ignoramus and provincial as ideal material for a farmer. George Washington, Thom as Jefferson, Patrick Henry were all dirt farmers, as was James A. Garfield, Robert Broadnax Glenn and about every other man that amounted to anything. Consider Ben Tillman of South Carolina, when the deeds of the grafters ascended to high Heav en, Benjamin took a farmer's imple ment, the pitchfork, and chased cor luption, panic-stricken, to cover. He and his pitchfork' are badly needed again. Of course he has gone to his eternal reward, but he being dead yet speaketh. If he and the patriotic William J. Bryan could be reincar nated, every frog-eyed grafter would quake in his boots. —CORN CRACKER.
