The PRESIDENTS ORDER TO FED.
ERAL OFF1c1ALs.-A telling blow at
a grievous abuse and q most prolific
source of political trouble will have
been struck when the President issues
bis contemplated order preventing
federal officers from holding places
under State or local governments, and
and from being candidates for such
offices. Ii they accept such local OF
State appointments, or become candi-
dates for them while holding national
Offices, such acts are to be followed by
removal from the federal Offices they
hold. This order, we are informed,
is to be issued at the commencement
Of the Presidents second term, in
March. 1t would be salutary check
on some officials if it were put into
force now, and it would likewise be a
deserved punishment to some officials
who have behaved very badly in the
Southwestern States. In the early
days Of the republic it was considered
a cause of the gravest censure for a
federal oaiceholdcr even to interior,
in any way in elections, except By
casting his vote; and such 4 thing as
United States officer being mem.
Der Of State Legislature would have
heen regarded with the greatest
alarm. - Philn. Ledger.

Patrons of HusbandrY.

This Order is designed to bind the far
mers together in fraternity, and by en-
couraging education to advance to higher
state of perfection the science OF agrlcui-
ture. 1t aims to encourage the planting
Of fruit trees and flowers by which to en-
hance the value, and increase the attrac-
ton ofthe farmers home, adorning them
with those beauties so lavishly given US
by the God of nature.
It's grand objects are not only general
improvements in husbandry, but to de-
velope the moral and mental faculties OF
its members and to increase the general
happiness, wealth and prosperity OF the
country.
1t proposes to reduce freights and pass
engers fare by railroads, believing that
after such reductions are made, railroad
companies will then realize more profits
on the real capital invested. 1t seeks to
bring between the producer and the rail
road companies, a nearer proportion IN
the scale of dividends than now exists.
1t is designed to promote the industrial
interests of the producer.
Believing that to improve their condi
ton and to ascertain certain rights, nus
bandmen indiUiduGlly are like one drop ii
the Ocean, but collectively might be th'
Ocean itself. This Order seeks to unite
them into grand and powerful organiza
ton.
Finding also that large percentage o
the legislation of the country is dictated
and controlled by various wealty monopo
lies which as occasion presents itself, us'
all their persuasive power upon our repre-
sentatives, and are thus enabled to batt'
all schemes which do not look directly t.
their particular interests. This Order b.
moral power, may give directions L
public sentiments, and then make its in
fiuence felt upon the politics of thi
country.
In conclusion, its objects, as already in
dicated ARE to advance education,to elevat
and dignity the occupation of the farmer
and to protect its members against tn
numerous combinations by which thel
interests are injuriously affected.

The Eureka Tragedy-An Interview
with II. c. WOrkman-Heg goes into
Illinois Tomorrow.

[From the Lafayette Courier of Wednesday,
A Peoria, Illinois dispatch says Grand
Jury of WoOdtord county have found
bill'agains. Mrs. Workman, for killing
Mrs. Hodges near Eureka, Illinois. last
Spring. A former Grand Jury, it will be
remembered, failed to indict her. Mr.
Workman and his wife, Immediately af-
ter the tragedy, removetto Lafayette, and
have been living very quietly on The west
side of the river. 1t is certainly very re-
markable that party indicted for murder
should receive the first intimation Of the
fact through anybody save an officer of
the law. Our reporter interviewed Mr..
Workman to-day. He found him in a
buggy with his son riding to South Street
depot.
Question-Have you seen the Peoria
telegram announcing the Indictment of
your wife?
Answer-I have not; but had letter
last week intimating that certain parties,
who for reasons best known to Them
selves want to conceal the real culprits
and are pushing the prosecution of my
wife, would make another effort to get an
indictment against her.
Question--Haye they any new evil
dence?
Answer-None. l have copy of all
the evidence before the Coroner's Jury
and the Grand Jury The best lawyers
in Layfavetse have read it carefully and
say there is nothing in it-no case.
Question-Will you 90 without writs

would come without delay.
Questionable he respond to your let
ter?
Answer--Nnt yet but we shall start
tomorrow and look this thing right
square in she face.
Question-Do you wish to publish any,
thing about the tragedy and its causes
Answer-Not yet; my time has not
come | shall have something to say ere
long, and mark me with some excite
ment) some people who were so swift to
swear before the Coroner's Jury, so swift
to strike man when he is down, may
have chance To learn an honest trade
and do the State some service.
| Question-Will You get an immediate
trial?
Answer-Doubtful Our leading coun-
sci, Mr. Burns, has been elected Circuit
Judge, and as he can not try the case we
will have to take change of venue. We
start tomorrow. We bide our time When
they have done their worst, we may get a
fair hearing at the bar of public opinion.
Meanwhile we stand together. If an in
dictment is returned and is not bailable. /

BEET SUGAR.
Political Observation-Disclosures
Servitude

The sugars imported into the United
States during last year, exceeded in de-
clared valne the amount exported by
$50, O,070,037. Now for the last seven years
France, Rrussia and Austria have sent
abroad no money for sugar, but have sup
piled themselves from beets. Their ex-
ample is being rapidly followed by Rus
sia, Holland, England, and even by Scan
dfnavians The United States bray that
they are ahead of the times Will they re-
main behind them, as they clearly are, in
the matter Of sugar? If beets thrive all
over Europe, will they not do well in
Americas Experiments in beet sugar, as
at Northampton. (Mass.,) Fond du Lac
and Black Hawk, (Wis.,) have proved
failures, but ten times as many unsuccess-
full trials abroad preceded final success,
and Americans may learn by the errors OF
generations.
Three notable beet sugar factories are
now making full proof of an industry as
yet new in America; one in Illinois anu
two in California. The Illinois establish
ment is In Freeport, those on the Pacific
slope ale in Sacramento and AIvafado.
The two latter have been at work two
years, the other only one. The smallest
OF tnenl mas capacity iOT WoIkiuS MY
tons of beets daily, and a million and a
half pounds of sugar were turned out last
year in California. The prospects of all
three establishments are good. Let them
prove a success, and beet factories will
multiply. The farmers of Nebraska will
learn new trick in lodging high freights.:
Among 10000 immigrants already planted
there, not a few of them attracted to the
Burlington & Missouroi' River Railroad
lands on the three Blues by ten years
credit, with nothing of principal payable
for four years many having raised beets
for foreign factories, will know how to
furnish them best and cheapest for Ne
braska factories. The refuse pulp is ev-
erywhere worth for stock feeding, one
half as much as the original beets. Eu-
ropean beet-sugar manufacture has all
grown up in generation. Nor is it un-
likely that he who reads these lines may
live to see Nebraska self-supplied with
sugar from its own beet beds, and then
that he may live good while after thatl
