'We are to be congratulated .that
ciost of our speeches this fall have
2been in.a measura f reeu from .this
viU especially when compared with
other campaigns. -

The argument were srch as we
thought were good Democratic docs
trine before the Chicago convention
Since then, in deference to majori
ties and a very popular demand, we
have felt it to be best to unite for
the election of the Chicago ticket
and we feel the more braced in our
course by .the. fact that we have such
men as Hoke Smith, General Gor
don and a number of others of
prominence with us. ;
We think one of the; speakers
dropped in t a the error of looking
upon
Mr. Bryan as favoring
meas
ured more extreme than he does.
r
Mr. Vinton's remarks on capital
and labor were intended to combat
that surprising .assertion that the
financial issue is an issue of the
classes against the masses. We re
gret most of all that anyone missed
that part of his speech It was
kind in spirit, forcible in logic and
was well calculated to help to link
these two elements in closer com
pact to the prosperity and the well
being of all concerned. It was no
ticable in i s tlfects and; we feel
sure that its influences will be felt
and put to living application.

Prepare for Emergencies.
' While seme of our oldest and
most thoughtful observers predict
that we are not likely to have a se
vere winter, it is the wisest and
safest course to pursue to prepare
for a very decided change in the
temperature during the winter
months. The utmost precaution
8hould be employed to secure the
liye stock on the farm from the in
clemency of the weather and the
sudden declension of the thermome
ter to zero during the winter
months. It is not only humane to
the animal, but a saving of pro
vender. The unexpected, it is said,
always happens; but if you expect
and prepare for an emergency and
it does not happen, you are not a
loser thereby. The Rev, Irl R
Hicks, the great weather prophet,
who has many firm believers in the
accuracy of his 'predictions, has
stated that the month of jDecember
will be one of the mo3t severe that
we have known for yearsj . Winter,
he says, will begin early j and be a
cold one, but the centre of the worst
period wilLbegin on December 19 tb,
and continue until December 30th.
Forewarned forearmed.) The path
of prudence is to fortify ourselves
against all possible damage from
the inclemency of winter. -South
