1t seems that tho objection to the law
as it now stands arose from the practice
of certain tmall merchants in the
country, of including Uhishey, which is
largely and literally furnished, in the
list of agricultural supplies. This is
very Arcadian, and is blissful union
of the orgies Of Pan and Bacchus, but
it certainly is not legal. However
stimulating to the fertile brain, whiskey
may be, it is a very poor stimulating
fertilizer to the soil, and while it will
soon send men to "gruss" is very poor
pasturage for stock.
This practice is simply an abuse and
violation of the law, and cannot be
urged as an objection to it provisions
One of these changes proposed to the
law, is to give the owner of the md
preferred Ii ed on the crop OF the tenant
for the rent. 1t is far easier for the
small farmer, just "naking his farm"
to get land than supplies. And like
wise it is easier for the landlord to COL
lcct his rent than for the merchant to
get remuneration for his advances.
The one is upon the ground and near.
er to the tenant AID knows his renter
better than than the other at a distance,
aud unable to know his man or watch
his crop. Only good tcnaut can pct
land, and there is MS quenily less
necessity for so hiy!, security to be
given the .land!ord for the collection of
his rent
The lien law as it now stands is wise
and has been a benefit add blessing to
the poor men Of the State, and has Ger.
tainly aided and encouraged agriculture.
Let the law, which has stopd the test
of experience, sand as it is, but let any
abuse Is Hr. i 8 str:cl ly W.T. h d

Fact is stranger than fiction In the OIL
regions Of our State, where there now
exist a band of organized thieves whose
sole plumber is that most powerful and
dangerous of all explosive ageHts, nitro
glycerine. Almost as remarkable as the
systematic purloining of the perilous
stuff is the existence of an ever-ready
market for the compound In the very
nsighborhood where IL has been stolen.
Nltro-glyeerine is kept in store at cCnsid-
cradle distances from human habitations,
and would seem to be guard unto itself,
but il is not, being stolen in large quanti-
ties, and then vended with IMMUNITY in an
almost open market. The Titusville
Herald goes so far as to say that the nitro
glycerine stealers are countenanced and
encouraged by prominent operators haY-
ing use for the material in their business"
Justice certainly moves slowly In the oil
Observation-Disclosures Inquirer.
