. 1 Lebanon Express. H. Y. K1RKPATRICK, Editor - and - Proprietor. Stick your knows in your own business. Knox county, 111., is probably tho divorce center of the United States. In the last five years the number of divorces have one to every seven marriages. The people generally have observed one ond will observe the other Thanks giving day. The pastors alone are making a political question out of the dual holiday. Statesman. The editor of the Statesman must have a different idea of the meaning of the phrase "the people gener ally," as it is used in the above article, from the one that nearly if not quite every one else has. fa iiluriiiic o.im.fad it in moan tl, majority of the people, but if the number of people who celebrated PennoyerV Thanksgiving day come within the meaning of that phrase it must mean a minority, emphatically.

The Knights of Labor have lost a wise, determined and conservative Grand Master in the resignation of Mr. Powderly. This body is large, cumbersome and hard to manage, yet their former chief has kept it -well in hand. They have elected J. R. Sovereign his successor, a rather unfortunate name for the head of an order composed of workmen. The aiders and abettors of that disgusting sheet, the Portland Sun day Mercury, have at last met in part the just reward for their crimes. This paper has thrust upon tlie public the most revolting scandals, clothed in spicy and at tractive words. They have un earthed long forgotten family skel etons and by threatening to parade ihe ruits of their ghoulish indus try have wrung mom; frm man; .people. They have made innocent people to suffer. In ft word, this paper 1ms been a hideous disgrace to ju.uni,ilinm, and its abettors de serve to dwell for a time in the "pen." where they have so often threatened to send their victims unless hush-money was forthcoming.

Doctors are Coming! THE DISTINGUISHED AND EMI NENT SPECIALISTS OF Orupp fe Co's big worded circu lar on the financial outlook reads as follows: Confidence breeds credit where courage leads the way. With holding enterprises is rejecting prosperity. To quit exertion is to invite disaster. Losing a profit is better than losing a sale. Better divide a dime than lose a dollar. To relight a furnace is to start a home mission. Spindles and looms in rapid motion sometimes outrun a bank note. To give credit in the bank parlor is to get it at the teller's window. A good advertise ment generally gets to the bank .before thu check to pay for it. Doubt is a ghost which runs away from faith.

There is something peculiarly interestinz to the mind in the rela tion which an editor sustains to his rMulem. To manv to most of them he must be personally un known, yet the tie which unites him to them is perhaps all the for that fact. For them die continually thinks and plans he consults their tastes, seeks to discover their needs and to supply their wants. Not even his most intimate friends are so constantly in his thoughts as these unseen friends to whom he speaks through flm nrinted Laae. When intro- : dueed to a stranger who sys: "I have long been a constant reader of your journal," what a flash of recognition passes from eye to eye! This man, he feels, is no stranger; he knows my habits of thought, is acquainted with my ideas on many subjects, has learned, I trust, to value my character. How ean he seem like a stranger?
