Defeat or ChilllS' Temperance
Hill.

From the St. Paul Daily Press, March Sd.
I think the temperance u,cn Of this
State have some cause for disappoint-
ment and chayrin at the manner in
which they have BEN treated by our
Legislature, especially by members OF
the Senate. We take pleasure in ten
dering our highest regards to those few
noble men who have presented our
cause, and who have so earnestly de-
Tended it. Gentlemen, we shall need
you in St. Paul again another year, and
shall earnestly seek your reelection.
We have asked for a limited pro-
hibitory Inv, embracing no new legal
phase, but simply throwing the burden
Of procuring license upon those who
arc rcaping the profits, which was but
just.
On this section there was but little
debate. 1t was killed at once. The
leaders and the organs Of the party in
power said in substance ut is unj ust
to the citizen. Prohibition is wrong
in principle and a failure in practice"
&c. However, temperance men have.
no. forgotten that the Minnesota Legis-
lature year ago. On the petition of a
monied corporation and regardless Of
these "rights" Of the rnmseller, did
pass prohibit"ry law covering good

Our Delegation.

The Legislature of 1872 is confess
eddy one Of the ablest Of which the
State can boast. For learning, ability,
and ractical wisdom, it is distinguished
in Il high degree, AID it is a matter Of
no little pride to the citizens Of Mower
county that her delegation in that
body was in no sense inferior to any
other. Although cntircly without leg
islati"c experience, each was at once
recognized AS full man and accorded
the high rank Which such men always
merit. In the Senate, Mr.. Page was
highly estsemed for his universally ac-
knowled $ed ability, aud no less for his
afabil;ty and excellent social qualities
While in the House both Mr.. Viii
'iaus and Mr.. Wyckoff were controll-
Ing uleu.bcrs-nut ostentati"usly 50,
hut because Of their S; ynal ability and
pract!:,l knowledge. Neither the
voice ror tlt vote Of either Of these
three men has contributed to the sue
cess Of AT unjust measure. They each
have made record Of which the
county may justly he proud.

EOlnc Again.

After two months of busy work in
the Capitol, we come gladly to the
striped" again. However harrassing
the duties Of an editor may be at
times there i. ever connected with them
mach OF genuine pleasure, and we ap-
r~oach the work again with deepest sat-
i>tacti"n. Our temporary abbcrra.ion
from the line Of journalistic duty, has
in no degree abated our zeal. There is
. wide field before us, into which We
shall tearlessly enter to labor, as the
cxis encies Of the hour may seem to
require. Those matters nearest home
being Of greatest Importance to our
people, will always receive earliest at
ten,ion but we hope never to so en-
gross our mind with interests that are
purely local, Us to shut out from view
those sublime relations which localities
sustain to the world as unit. Prin-
ciples, as we'll as measures, should be
recognized in every step We take, and
in our zeal to enhance the material in
terests Of the community We should
never lose sight Of the fact than GEM
inc progress follows instinctively in the
foot prints Of eternal truth. Justice
abidcs in the right, and sh. never So
journs elsewhere, even at the behest Of
expectancy for temporary purposes
Permeated with this idea, We shall
strive to exemplify it. IL the future,
as III the past, we shall have but little
to say Of the motives by which action
is inspired. IL discussing the acts of
the recent Legislature. we shall consid-
er each which claims our attention in
its severalty, upon the theory that it is
just what it would have been had no
other measure been acted upon cotcmpo-
raneously. In no other way can We
measure 50 nearly the precise degree OF
meli: which, it contains. The genera!
laws Of the session will soon be given
to the readers Of the TRANSCRIPT, and
until that time we withhold all general
comment, merely expressing the hope
that i'll the aggregate they may be found
conducive to the welfare and prosperity
Of the State.

A Chat with Farmers.
THE HORSE.

For the horse that is allowed to roam
on the prairie in the summer time, but
little need be said regarding his food,
rs the nourishment which the God Of
Nature has provided for him is adapt
ed to his wants but for the horse that
is confined to the stable the whole year,
much needs be sail regarding his food
and care. The great end to be aimed
ut in feeding the stabbed horse is to
give hiu. such food and in such guam
titles as will best keep him in good
flesh and maintain his general health.
The practice Of allowing u horse to
stand day and night before a rack or
mapgcr full of hay, should be discard
ed. The hay should be cut up fine,
and little meal, shorts, or other ground
feed mixed with it, and fed in such
quantities that none Of it will be vast
ed, and in such amounts that the labor
ing horse will thrive upon it while he
is performing large amount Of daily
drudgery. No grain is more adapted
to tie horses wants than oats, if they
are bright and free FROM offensive taste
or smell. Carrots, turnips and potatoes
all form an excellent diet, although.
neither Of them alone will answer for
the horses regular feed, but to alter
nate with other food they are highly
valuable, as they will aid in recovering
an ailing horse, and tend to prevent
the inroads Of diseases. A stabbed
horse should he vel; cleaned every day,
not only for ncatness, but for the bene
tit Of the horses health. 1t begets
gentle heat and pcrspiration, produces
glossy coat Of hair and forwsrds good
circulation Of blood to the cxtrcmities.
1t is not good practice to groom
horse in his stall, rs much Of the dirt
and dust Which is rubbed out Of his
hair falls back upon him again, or set
ties on the sides Of his stall and in his
Manager. He should be taken to some
airy place where the scurf and dust
can blow away and the horse enjoy the
benefits Of exposure to the fresh air.
Some kinds of dirt adhere 50 obstinate.
~ to the skin that the curry-comb has
to be used with some degree of severity
to remove it; but as some horses are
very thin skinned and sensitive, it
should be used lightly on them, espcci-
ally on the legs and other tender parts
Of the body. After it has been passed
over tue surface, nothing is better for
the horse, in the line Of cleaning, than
to rub him thoroughly With wisp Of
straw or hair cloth, and good rub
bling given the limbs with the bands to
bring down swel|ings, soften stiffness,
and to make the legs warm and trim.
