Gov. HAYES, of Ohio, as a representative
Radical, is anxious TO extend the right OF
suffrage 30 as to allow all men, Negro, In.
dian and Chinese, to have the right of
suffrage with the whites. While the advo
cacy of this doctrine is fresh upon his lips,
he turns round and claims that the people
are not to be trusted with the election Of
Judges, but that the Governor, by and with
the advice and consent of the Senate,
appoint them for life. This latter doctrine,
coming as it does from a negro-msnhood
sufrageite, is worthy of the Radical who
made il

The Fair at Hazel Gr cen.


We copy from tho Galena Gazette
the following notice of the fair at
Hazel Green on the 18th and 18th
inst
The Spring Fair of the Hazel
Green Industrial Society commenced
Thursday morning and continued
Friday. The attendance Thursday
was not large, owing probably to
the bad condition of the roads; but
the races were witnessed with q
good deal of interest.
The first thing on the programme
was a trotting match for a purse,
best two in three to harness Two
horses entered, viz: Ben. Butler, a
bay horse owned by Crawford, Mills
& Co., of Hazel Green, and Wild
Rose, sorrel mare owned by A. Jones
of Hazel Green. First heat won by
Wild Rose, in $40. Second heat by
same in 3:15. 1t is but justice to
say that neither horse was in con-
dition for the turf, Ben. Butler be-
ing too fleshy, and Wild Rose having
been sick for several days. Both
horses, we learn, have made it in
about 2:40.
The second race was for all horses
that have never made a mile in less
than three minutes. Trot to har-
ness, best three in FIVE. Entries
Fannie, owned by B. Cornelison,
Hazel Green; Black Stallion, A.
Jones, Hazel Green Little Bill, A.
Stephenson, Fsirplay 4; Jim. J. Clair,
Hazel Green. First heat won by
Jim in 1928. Second by the same in
1920. On the third heat, Jim was
considerably ahead on the first halt
mile, but something being wrong
with the bit, he stopped short, and
the heat was won by Black Stallion.
Fourth heat won by Jim in 3:15.
A running race, half mile heat,
came off between horse owned by
John McGivern, of Benton, and one
owned by p. Parkinson of Fayette.
During the first quarter of mile
McGivern's horse was about half a
length ahead after which Parkinson's
gained on him, and at one time had
the advantage by neck, but Nc
Givern's gathered, and came in about
half neck ahead, and was awarded
the race. 1t was the most closely
contested and exciting race we ever
witnessed. Both horses, although
comparatively green, did some hand
some running. Time 500 seconds.
Mir. John Strachan, of Mineral
Point, had fine display of agricul-
tural implements on the ground, and
other parties, whose names we did
not learn, brought on some machines
late in the day.

The thirtieth of May, now univer

diers, was observed with appropriate
ceremonies by a large assembly 81

announced to our citizens that the
solemnities of the day would be
gratefully enlivened by music ap.
propriAte for the occasion. The
Platteville band will long be held in
remembrance for the welcome adj
dition they furnished to the enter
tainment Of the day.
About l o'clock in the afternoon
the children of the public schools
marched by classes to the monument
grounds, under the charge of Prot.
McGregor, and the military company
under charge of Capt. Baxter took
position near the monument. Gen.
Calls, the marshal, proved equal to
the task of arranging the order OF
the exercises and stationing the vast
crowd present to assist in and wit
ness the ceremonies. The choir, led
by Mr.. Budd and assisted by Mrs.
Lewis Holloway, Mrs. Farrar, Misses
Alma and Ella Durand and Mr.. Il. A.
Burr and L. f. Baldwin, opened the
exercises at the monument by sing
ing. Then followed prayer by Rev.
5. w. Eaton which was solemn and
affecting. Mr.. Il. had himself been
a soldier and could sympathize deep
ly and feelingly with the friends Of
the departed. Col. Clark delivered
an appropriate and able address, and
WAS followed with we'll timed re-
marks by Hon. j. Allen Barber.
While the band was playing dirge,
twelve young ladies dressed in white
approached the monument through
the opened ranks Of the troops and
assembly and tastefully decorated
the marble shafts with flowers and
evergreens. The exercises were in
terspersed with appropriate music
by the band and choir. After the
decoration procession was formed
aud the large concourse Of citizens,
soldiers, ladies and children marched
to the Lancaster cemetery and paid
tribute to the memory OF the honor
cd dead thcre resting. The move
ment to tho cemetery, the salute at
the graves, the prayer and the bene-
diction were alike suitable to the &C.
casion and effective as the ceremo-
MES at the monument.
To theladies the thanks of the COM
munity are due for the flowers and
evergreens 80 profuSely furnished
and beautifully arranged. We would
be glad to give q fuller notice of the
proceedings and print the names of
oil whose assistance helped along the
noble work, but space forbids.

EWSome papers in this State
seem to have doubts about the legal
ity Of abolishing the Grand Jury sys-
tenn, because the constitution of the
United States provides that no per-
son shall be held to answer for CAPT
tai or infamous crime, unless on the
presentment or indictment of q
Grand Jury, except in certain cases.
This clause has direct reference to
the U. S. Courts but is not applicable
to the State Courts. Each State re-
gulates that matter to suit itself
Michigan abolished Grand Juries
several years ago, and it is consider
ed legal to try prisoner without be-
ing indicted by q Grand Jury.

THR CURcULIo.-At the last meet
ing of the Cincinnati Horticu
Society, q gentleman stated that by
accident he hung a piece of phospho-
rus Oh plum tree two years ago,
and was surprised to find the tree
full of plums, while all the other trees
had none. He tried it again last
year, as did some of his neighbors,
with equally gratifying results. He
recommended the hanging of two or
three pieces of phosphorus in each
tree, SO that in whatever direction
the wind blows the smell of the drug
will DO waited through the branches.
1t will hang some days before con-
sumption, when it will have to be
renewed.

LATE MAINTAINING is quite
often necessary to transplant trees
and shrubs after they have common
ced growth in spring. If cloudy,
wet weather is selected in which to
perform this operation, there is little
danger Of loss. Even two or three
days of cloudy weather with little or
no rain will have wonderful effect
in preserving the lives of transplant
cd trees. We always choose cloudy
or rainy weather for transplanting
any plants that have been overlook
ed, or for any other cause have be-
gun to grow, and we would much
rather wait two or three weeks for
rain than to transplant in warm, dry
weather. This, ofcourse, refers only
to late spring transplanting.
