The growth of trees in a well protected ior

fertility on richer lands with good eultiya-
ton the growth is more rapid, and on our
prairies still more rapid so that young man

er trees will come to maturity in thirty years,
but the white pine, the monarch of our
forests will require half century. Bayard
Taylor says trees come to maturity slower
in Germany than in our country. Sixty
years of our climate, he thinks, win pro-
duce as large fir or pine as hundred years
there. Artifcially planted forests win yet be-
come profitable investments all over our
country. And aside from their commercial
value, trees are fine ornaments to any estate.
A handsome tree is monument to the good
taste of him who planted it. Let our young
armers then see to it that they plant trees ON
the waste places of their farms, about their
dooryards and by the roadside. They viii
live to enjoy them and think it strange that
their fathers neglected such work. Without
trees Landscape loses almost all its charms.

GENERAL HANCOCK it seems is to be pushed
for tho Democratic nomination for the
Presidency. That was Gen. Granger's busi-
ness during his flying visit to Portland few
days ago, and he has since teen heard of in
New Hampshire and Connecticut. We no.
ticed yesterday the formation of Hancock
club here. How such a nomination is likely
to be received by the "old guard" may be In
ferred from the following indignant protest
from the Bangor Democrat:
A few men in New York and Washington
seem to imagine that they have the whole
Democratic party Of the country in their
who denominate themselves prominent Dem
ocrats," "eading Democrats" influential
Democrats, etc., etc., meet together chat
awhile and then have it telegrapbed all over
the States that they have decided upon A. b.
for President and q. ID. for Vice President. A
few months ago these "prominent Democrats"
pompously said that the Democratic party
must nominate Gen. Grant, and their half doz-
ea pensioned organs echoed the cry. Directly,
however, Grant proclaims himself Radical.
Then these prominent Democrats" deciar-
ed that Sherman must be the man. But
Sherman repudiated Democracy in his st.
Louis speech, whereupen tho "prominent
Democrats" said they must take Farragut.-
Farragut travelled the same road that Grant
and sherman trod. By this time one would
have supposed that the "prominent Demo-
Gratis" would have been at their wits end. But
no. Within few days they have brought
out a new candidate, General Hancock
Well it was so in 1924 and 1928 Whilst
prominent Democrats in New York and
Washington were putting up candidates for
the people to vote for, the people themselves
put up Andrew jackson and elected him. So
now whilst the New York and Washington
~prominent Democrat" are dancing about FIRST
Grant, then Farragut, then Sherman, then
HancOck-men about whose Democracy the
people know nothing, the people themselves,
with unanimity unparalleled, from California
to Maine, and from Oregon to Florida, are
bringing forward the Hon. George II. Pendlc-
ton whose Democracy is true and tried, and

Stabbing Affair.

On Monday night last, between eight
and nine o'clock, fight occurred between
Lark Thompson and man named Daniel
Hughes. bartender at Peter Dallaker's sa-
loon, in front of that establishment. During
the melee Hughes drew knife, orgoi hold
of one in some way. (some say II was han
he'd to him by brother bartender at ia
cob Weckcrlee's saloon,) and stabbed
Thompson in the left side. The point ot
the blade struck on the 4th or 5th rib and
glanced upward, intiicting an ugly and
painful wound, but not necessarily fatal,
as the blade did not enter The cavity of the
tody, or wound any Vital organ. Hughes
and lis fIitnd soon after the fracss ended
made tracks fer other parts, and haze not
since been seen or heard OF, except, II is
reported, that some one met them opposite
the Fair Ground, short time after the az
fair, travelling north, and are probably in
Canada ere this.
Since the above was in tyre VIC are in
formed that Hughes has returned, and
sa VS. he did not stab Thompson.
