That's What's the Matter.

A Mr.. D. Crawley--the final letter of
his name is evidently a mistake; it should
have been ar" instead of "y" to have
made the name and nature exactly cores
pond--has Published in the Sullivan Co.
Democrat card stating the reasons of his
defeat for Trustee Of Fairbank Township.
The chief Of these reasons he gives thus:
IL vas accused OF voting for q vigorous
prosecution of the war at the Terrs
Haute Convention last January. :. This
This false accusation with other lying re-
ports--circulated by beardless youths
caused many TO doubt my Democracy; was
consequently defeated by about twenty
votes.''
The spirit OF the Copperheads is uncon-
sciously but plainly exhibited in this ex
planation. A candidate is accused" of
being partially loyal and the slonder 80
prejulices the party against him that they
beat him. A precious party!
Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1864-04-21
Smoked Out.

AT last the Copperheads have been for
ced or irritated into showing their hands.
We know where to find them now
Equiyocation has been abandoned. con-
ccalment thrown aside, and the party
stands ont now avowedly in favor Of aban.
doning the war. and acknowledging the
Confederacy. On Friday Mr.. Alexander
Long. Of Cincinnati. made a speech in the
House, declaring that he was opposed to
the war, that he would give it no encour.
agement or help, that it was wrong in
purpose and origin, and that he was for
the immediate recognition ofMe Cofedsracy.
Il was plain, frank avowal of utterly
reasonable sentiments. On Saturday
Mr.. Speaker Colfax offered resolution
expelliDg Mr.. Long, as unfit to hold a
place under government which he declar.
ed his willingness to see destroyed, and as
giving our enemies abroad the encourage.
ment of hope that we might be forced
by internal diSsensions to abandon the
war. How could we complain" be
said. elf foreign governments recognized
the confederacy when we permit its receg.
milton to be openly advocated in Con-
gress?" A question which carries MS
straight tc the necessity Of thrusting such
men ms Long out, where if they must
prate treason, they shan't do it with the
force that official position gives 1t. This
resolution drove out the whole den of
Copperheads, Kissing with wrath. Harris
of Maryland said that he endorsed every
word that Long said. and he was for aban-
doning the war at once. and acknowledg-
ing the independence of the confederacy
Fernando Wood said that rather than see
the people Of the South subjugated, he
would see the ConfedeTacy recognized, and
they might expel him for it. if they chose
Mallory. Pendleton, Cox. and Allen, OF
Illinois, all venomous Copperheads. who
would rather see Union army extcrmina-
ted than rebel slave carried away, though
they did not agree with Mr.. Long exactly,
thought it monstrous thing to expel a
confessed. boastful traitor from Congress.
So they would have said, some of them
did say, Of the proposition to expel Bur-
nett and Brackinridge. and others. then in
the rebel army. "A resolution to expel
Harris. Of Maryland, who is just as bad
as Jeff. Davis or Toombs, was offered and
brought to a vote. but failed, as it takes
two-thirds to expel member. The vote
stood 81 to SO. The country owes Mr..
Colfax debt Of gratitude for forcing ont
these traitors and compelling them to
stand up in plain sight with their infamy
all over them We know now, as we said
at first. just where to find the Peace
Democracy. And there the Peace Demo
cracy is. there are the x. G.. C's., and
where the two are will be the brains and
energy of the whole party. The next con-
test will be between the Union men and 3
party resolved to give up the war, the
Government. and the nation to the rebels.

The time required for fax to ripen is
generally between three and four months
from the sowing. 1t is fit to pull when
the stalk is of yellewish tinge, the leaves
having mainly fallen off, and the center
boil become Of brown color. II the
straw be left standing until all the seed
are fully matured. the fibers are harsh and
brittle. IL the proper time be observed.
the seeds, though not quite ripened when
gathered, will be perfected by the sap
remaining in the stalk. The straw in
usually pulled up by the roots. When .
convenient handful il gathered. hold is
loosely in both hands and let the butt ends
drop on the ground several times. until
they are even. 1t may now be set up in
rows with the heads inclining, or better.
bound loosely in small bundles 8 or 4
inches in diameter and gathered into cir
cular shocks OF 6 or s bundles with the
butts of each well spread out. and they
may dry readily. The straw is left stand
ing in the field 6 or days. or until the
natural moisture is dried out AID tho seed
bolls are ripe enough to open easily.
When sufficiently cured, the bundles arc
taken to the barn or stacked in the field.
In the latter case they should be carefully
arranged to exclude water, The next
process is to separate the seed from the
stalk, for which several methods are in
use. Some use large close toothed iro,
comb called ripple, through which the
flax heads are drawn, q handful at time.
and the capsules torn OF. Others thresh
the heads with large mslletIhsving
curved handle. One experienced fax
raiser recommends to whip out the seed
by striking each bundle on solid block.
Where the seed alone is desired. the
practice is to shrssh with fail, or BY
treading it with horses. The most exps-
ditious method we have seen, is by pass
ing the seed ends between rollers driven
by horse power. A machine for this
purpose is in the market. 1t is only
necessary to use machine where much
fax is raised. A dry day should Be
chosen for taking ont the seed. as the
bolls break much more easily than when
they have absorbed much moisture.

Bayless w, Hanna, Peace Democrat

ture has set an excellent example to his
political friends. Being rebel at heart
and thoroughly sympathizing with the
confederates, be has packed up his traps.
and, according te the Evansville Journal.
passed thrugh the Federal lines into the
Confsdercy. He stated that his object was
to write . biography of the rebel leaders
but there seems to be no doubt among
those intimate with him that he goes as an
emissary ofths VallandighAm Demo oeiacy.
and is in the interest Of that class of con-
spirators who assassinate veteran soldiers
at homo to save Confederate soldiers the
trouble. Hanna will be remembered as
