amy we have no certain knowl-
edge. That i,t is practiced in
some degree i* the conviction of
aiost men, though proof is lack-

All the stories relating to
very aged people, stories very
familiar in tho t'nited States,
have been discounted by a tale
that comes from the Moscow,
cept this as a fact.
Hut the chief complaint
against Mormonism now is not
aa a moral but as a political
force. It was asserted in the
seaatc the other day that no
Mormon may be a candidate for
office without the consent of the
First Presidency whatever that
may mean- and that having ob-
tained that consent, every Mor-
mon is under a religious obliga-
tion to support hi in. If this be
true, Mormonism is clearly con-
trary to tbc spirit of our govern-
■teat, aad as such it ought to
be exterminated. Men sub-
acribiag to such an oath or
vow, are aot eligible as Ameri-
can citixens; the right of suf-
frage ought to be denied them
aad they should be regarded as
aliens. In this phase of the

Chicago Chronicle. This cor-
respondent says that a man
who is more than 2imi years old.
already in the Miird century of
ho* lile, is said to be in a hospi-
tal in Tomsk, the capital in the
far-away province of that name
in western Siberia. He is a small
peasant farmer, bedridden, but
still spund in his mind. He re-
membered seeing Peter the
Great and the Catherines.
Among the documents given as
proof of ins extreme age is a
passport bearing the date of
1763, m which lie is*described
as a man f 0 years of age. He
has been a widower 123 years.
The certificate of his wife's
death shows that she died in
17H0, after forty-seven years of
married life. His son, who
died in 1824, was said to be 'Hi
years old.
Where there's beauty Holland taken it,
Where there's none Holland makes it.
Thtra ia mach is heredity.
Tha leopard will ha apotted, the
bear black, aad tha aheap white,
because they are bora that way.
A man will he tall, or abort, or
dark, or light, or conscientious,
or coaacieaceleaa, or . energetic
or laty, aa a reaalt of heredity,
and tbat much he cannot help.
But in mental aad moral consti-
tution, and' to some extent in
physical form, one may overcome
heredity to a large extent. And
even where but little impreasion
caa be made on Nature's handi-
cap, it may be coaateracted, and
tbe result be tbc same as if the
hereditary obstacle bad never
existed. One of tbe best farm-
ers we have known waa tbe
champion lazy maa of the neigh-
borhood. Hia body loved ease,
but bis mind was active and
energetic. His neighbors were
solicitous lest bis family starve
and much sympathy was lav-
ished upon the wife and four
children. But when they found
tbat his crops were better and
more varied and his horses, cattle
sheep and hogs fatter than any
rubers in tbc neighborhood, they
said unto each other, "How is
this thus?" The true explana-
tion appeared after a while,
when it was found that our
neighbor, Andrews, lay awake
at night, thinking and planning
and scheming, bow he might do
a large amount of work with a
small amount of effort. Tbe re-
sult was, that if he made a fence
or a gate, or atiy building, he
was a long time at it, but it
never had to be rebuilt, at least
during his lifetime. When he
planted a crop or cultivated it,
the soil was prepared with great
care, and when he followed the
plow no stalk was passed until
it was properly plowed. He did
this to "save labor." He culti-
vated but little land, but did it
well. There is really no excuse
for being a poor farmer. If one
is born wrong in any way he
can rectify himself. If he lacks
knowledge he can acquire it. If
he lacks industry he can put in
a good substitute in the way of
brains, which are the greatest
labor-savers of this or any other
age. If a man does not rise su-
perior to heredity, it is not be-
cause he can't, but because he
does not want to. If he wants
t«) he will. You can't keep a
man down who wants to rise.
The place to begin reforms is
at the top. Make a man's head
right and he will soon be stand-
ing upright and ready to move
forward as soon as he is sure of
his footing.

A Bitter Prataat.
Kx-State Revenue Agent Cun-
ningham in his last report said:
"Local option is on the increase,
and the sentiment is growing
daily, and it seems now that it
will ultimately cove.- the whole
State of Texas. In spite of
said fact, the occupation tax is
also growing, the comptroller's
books showing the greatest in-
crease in oct-upation]tux, being
in excess of $42,000 over last
year. This does not include the
special occupation tax paid on
insurance companies, telephone,
express companies and Pullman
car companies."
The Philadelphia Public
Ledger, founded by George W.
Childs, tbe paper that has regu*
larly supported tbe republican
ticket, arraigns the republican
party in these words: "If tbe
republican majority of congress
was at all sincere in its pre-
tended efforts to curb or destroy
the trust evil it would go di-
rectly to tbe point by repealing
the trust-breeding, trust-foster-
ing and trust-sustaining Dingley
duties, which alone support tbe
predatory trusts in their nefar-
ious activity. But the republi-
can majority is not sinc?re; it is
juggling with the matter; it has
no purpose to interfere with the
trusts. Its only object, judging
from its 'conservative' action, is
to try to induce the country to
believe it intends to do some-
thing which it does not mean to
do. There is no trust bill before
congress which is not a trans-
parent fraud and sham." No
democratic paper says more than
this in the arraignment of the
republican party on the trust
question.
