General George B. Maxwell, the
Gentle candidate for Congress from
Utah Territory, who was defeated by the
Mormon, William II. Hooper, does not
propose to let the matter rest where it is
Maxwell is profound hater of the Nor
mon ideas of polygamy aud uuion of
Church and State, and being lawyer
by profession, proposes contest tor the
seat claimed by Hooper He bases his
contest on several grounds (probably
made necessary by the fact that Hoopcr's
majority was more than 21 900, in a poll
of $4,000. Among others, the illcgali-
ty of the female Mormon vote; fraud
and force in the casting of Mormon
votes and that Hooper is disqualified un-
der the Fifteenth Amendment, because
he is Mormon. Congress will have
nice question to decide when Maxwell
VS.. Hooper is reached. The decision
win involve the question of how far
citizen of the United States becomes
disqualified from holding Office by the
practice of polygamy, in violation of law.

BITs.-The San Francisco Gail goes
after the 'bit nuisance" vigorously. 1t
says:
''There is no good reason why the la

he has only quarter ola dollar to pay
with-for what costs the dealer one cent,
and is sold for two cents in New York

The agony is over and Spain ut last is
provided with King. The great body
OF the people still favor the monarchical
form of government, else the Cortes,
which was elected for the special purpose
OF deciding as to the form of government,
would not have elected the Duke d. Aosta,
by an overwhelming vote, their future
King The people of Spain had an
undoubted right to select such form Of
government as best pleased them, or to
commission certain persons to choose for
them and the latter course of action
having been adopted, the result is Spain
is to have King for ruler. Spain had
the opportunity offered her to take po:
sition among the first peoples Of the EARTH
to rise out of the ''Slough of Despond"
where she has lain for centuries but
she has willfully thrown it away If the
country is not visited by u terrible and
devastating civil war, caused by factions
in the conflicting interests of Don Carlos,
Moutpcusier, Prince of Asturias, Isabella
and the Republic, present Indications go
for nought. Had Republic been Sc
lected, Spain would have had a stable
government and peace, under the influ-
enee of which her people would have
grown rich and prosperous. BY the
selection which she has made she again
invites revolution and anarchy.

Grape GTOyging-The Experience OF
Practical Wen,

At the annual convention of grape
growers Of New York State, the subject
Of planting and pruning grapes came in
for share CT the discussions, and the
facts brought out showed that the system
of long pruning and of leaving more wood
than advisable to leave during the sum-
mer had resulted in producing ripened
fruit before any other. Space enough
should be left 10 the vines to pursue their
uatura, course. The shading of the leaf
upon the cluster was an advantage which
prevented sun-burning. The leaf is TO
the vine as the lungs are to the body, and
the taking away of the leaf produces dis
eases in the root. The method of sum
mer pruning, rs pursued 10y the German
growers, was shown to ultimately result
in diseases 10 the vines. Grapes have
better flavor by being shaded. The prop
cr system To pursue, according TO Euro
pcan viniCultUrists, is to let the main vine
run along the ground for a distance of
fifteen or twenty feet before training 1t
uDpn thc trellis. Ii was stated that vines
were seriously injured by mutilating the
roots in blowing, and that it was advisable
tousc only the hoe as an implement OF
cultivafing the ground at the roots.
Grap2-yiucs sometimes extend fifteen feet
in a perpendicular course. Over crop
ping was said 90 be almost sure to prevent
grapes from ripcning, though instances
were shown where such was not the case

Asparagus CuIturc.

Every owner of land can have full
supply of this excellent delicacy as well
as not. Get plants a year old, or get seed
and sow in a small bed, and raise plants
to set next year. Dig trench two spades
wide and two deep. Fill in largely al the
bottom with wen-rottcd manure Put in
the top soil. Set the plants so that they
viii be about four inches below the sur
face when the trench is filed up. Give a
top dressing of manure. Set the plants
eighteen inches apart. Two rows two
hundred feet long would give abundance
for large family daily from and after
the third year from planting. Give a top
dressing Of manure every fall, and every
spring add q sprinkling of salt Pour on
your refuse brine. Keep clean and trust
to Providence for the rest.

TranspIamting Tomatoes.

For family use a small box filed with
earth will answer every purpose for start
ing the plants. Keep il in a warm room
and give it water. Good plants will be
secured with care. Cover the box with
glass to countcract the dryness of the at
mospherc Of the room. Place the DO X
where the sun shines. When the plants
are two or three inches high they may be
placed in small pots to be afterwards
