The Spokane Review gives this esti
mate of Grover Cleveland : "Contem
porary estimates .of public men are often
faulty. Dullards have been exalted and
genius curbed and condemned in all ages',
but history generally sets things straight.
It will do so with Mr. Cleveland. Of
Grover Cleveland history will record that
there is scarcely a parallel in American
public life for so complete a failure in
time of profound peace and natural
plenty: A man of narrow range and
ordinary environment, he was called to
"the presidency by sheer luck, accidency
and the singular pivotal influence of
New York state in national politics.
Starting with the assumption that he
whs better and wiser than all other men,
he has learned nothing. but to grow more
set in his hastily - couched J views on
finance and the tariff. The country has
simply found him out at last. During
his first administration the man was
never tested, for the reason that the re
publicans retained control of congress.
,'Thb Chronicle wishes once again to
rnrge a matter it has many times pre-
"viously urged the formation of repub- :
; lican clubs in every precinct in the
- county. A thorough ' organization
throughout the county by those who be-1
-' lieve in republican principles will be a
: source of vast benefit. There is no dis
" couragement in small numbers. A club
of half a dozen will become a 'power for
good in less populous precincts, and it
'will.grow amazingly. With this begin
ninrg, a president and secretary may be
jhosen, aud correspondence opened with
the Young Men's. State Republican club
at Portland, which body will cheerfully
forward all necessary information, in
cluding hints for a constitution and by
laws, etc. Every voting precinct should
have its club, that Us influence' for good
may be doubled. There are some fifteen
' precincts in the county, besides The
Dalles. Each of them should form a
republican club and get in touch with
f the great movement of the times, which
is conspiring to defeat incompetent dem
ocratic rule and reetore prosperous gov
ernment. The dispatches yesterday say
that in New Hampshire the trend of
public opinion is even being shown in
town elections, some of them -which
jhave been democratic for years swing
ing into the republican column. This
is right. Wherever there is a chance tq
show disapprobation of . democratic
methods let it be done, and even the
smallest precinct ia not too humble to
' exhibit the proper spirit. The first
...step to wards, this end is organization.
FARM PHILOSOPHY.
The more you love yourself the less
you are sure to love others.
A trifling dog is generally not half
as trifling as the man who keeps him.
Some fellows kick a horse every time
thev enter his stall and then wonder
why he does not love them. ' ''
The stalk of corn that grows the
tallest and appears the. most conspic
uous nearly always bears a blasted ear,
. Prodigality is no sign of generosity.
It rather indicates a narrowness of
both mind and heart too contracted to
comprehend the real value of things,

MONSTER POPULATION OF ANTS
They Teach. Lessons In Industry avnd
Perfect Government.
There are more ants to the square
mile in Florida than , in any - other
country in the world, says a writer in
the Savannah News." There are ants
which will measure more than half an
inch in length, and then there are ants
so small that they can scarcely be seen
to move with the unaided .eye. There
are red ants and black ants and
troublesome ants. But, as bad as they
are, Thave never heard of them eating1
out the seat of a man's trousers, as a
missionary, Rev. Mr. Wilson, once told
the writer he saw the army ants do in
India while the man was sitting- -on
the earth for a few minutes beside him.
But the Florida ants will take out
the lettuce and other minute seeds
from the soil in which they are plant
ed, and actually destroy the bed." They
will suck the life out of acres of young
cucumbers and melon plants, uproot
strawberry plants or cover the buds
with earth to such an extent. as to kill
them. They will pet into pie, pickle,
sauce, sirup, sugar, on meat, in hash,
will riddle' a cake or fill a loaf of
brker's bread till it is worthless. '
All remedies failing1, 1 took to . bait
ing them near their nests with slices
of meat, bones, apple and pear - par
ings, and when I had from fifty thou
sand to one hundred thousand out
turned a kettle of boiling water on
them. I have killed during the last
week "over one million in the space of a
quarter-acre lot, and I have almost
whipped them out. I had to do this to
secure any lettuce plants, and many
observant farmers complain Of seeds
men when they should attribute their
troubles to insects.
. It is very curious and instructive . to
see how promptly the ants which es
cape the scalding po to work taking
out the dead, and, after pulling: them
outside first, then jro to excavating
again and rebuilding' their cells and
runways. This being done vefy quick
ly the next work on hand is the laying
in of a supply of food by hauling the
dead bodies of the hot-water victims
into their storehouses.
You may see a small black ant haul
ing and tugging- at the carcass of a red
ant twenty times its own weight, and
he always succeeds in the end in haul
ing it in the warehouse of the colony.
Next you may see a sort of ambulance
corps searching for the disabled.
These are taken to the underground
house, where the surgeons and nurses
are in waiting. ' Then, too, you may',
see the timekeepers and bosses - directing-
this one or turning- another back
on some errand or to some other - duty. -
There is not a moment's delay, no
halting feet, no idle hands, but all
move as if it was their last day on
earth and this was the only hour left
in which - to redeem a misspent life.
For lessons in industry and perfect
government go to the ants.
PLAIN .SPOKEN.
The Good-Natured Criticism of a .Well-
Meaninjr Nelsriibor.
The amount of plain speaking that
people will bear from one of whose
good will they are assured is sometimes
surprise to others. In "Recollect
tions'of My Mother." Susan Lesley
says that her mother had the greatest
affection for both David Lee Child and
his wife, the gifted Lydia Maria, but
was often much tried with the amount
of time, hard labor and money which
Mr. Child expended on scheme after
scheme, .none of whiclj ever suc
ceeded. ' ,
One afternoon Mrs. Child came in to
spend a quiet afternoon with mv
mother. They sat with their sewincr
and ' knitting at the west window-,
while I sat with one or two friends- in
the hall near the open door. Thee
had been a ltncr' silence, when we
heard my mother say:
Mrs. Child, can you tell me what is.
the last thing that your husband- is en
gaged in?"
An amused smile played' over Mrs.
Child's face. . "Yes, Mrs. Lyman; he is
carting- stone for the new railroad."
O-o-h!" said my mother. Another
pause; then: ."Mrs. Child, how much
do you suppose your husband loses on
every load of stone he carts to the rail
road?" Another amused look on the dear
Lydia Maria's face, and "she answered
cheerily: "Well, Mrs. Lyman, as near
as I can compute it, he must lose about
ten cents on every load."
Oh well now Mrs. Child," said
my mother, in the bravest and most
cheerful .tone, "if your husband has
got hold of any innocent occupation by
which he only loses ten cents on a load,
for heaven's sake encourage him in it."
fehe had little patience with people
who backed down in emergencies,- and
considered it her duty to- stiffen them
up a little. She never had to go far to
find an illustration "to point her moral
and adorn her tale." Some good neigh
bor's example would instantly come to
mind.
Look over the way at my neighbor
Hunts front yard," she would say;
see that splendid hydrangea, that ele
gant smoke bush, that buckthorn
hedge, all in the most' perfect order.
and all kept so by her own hands. Al
ways she has sickness, sorrow, death;
at every turn something sad and unex
pected. But who ever dreamed of Mrs.
Hunt's abdicating? She couldn't doit.
The Greatest Pyramid.
The great pyramid of Gizeh is the
largest structure or any kind ever
erected by the hand of man. Its origi
inal dimensions at the base were 764
feet . square, and its perpendicular
height in the highest point is 488 feet:
it covers ' four acres,, 'one rood and
twenty-two perches of ground, and has
been estimated by an eminent English
architect to have cost not less' than
30,000,000, which in United States cur
rency Would be about $145,200,000. In
ternal evidences proved that the great
pyramid was begun about the year 270,
B. C, about the time of :the birth of
Abraham. It is estimated that about
5,000,000 tons of hewn stone were used
in its construction, and the evidence
points to the - fact that these stones
were . brought a distance of about 700
miles from quarries in Arabia.
