to the paper growth Of Newton and Ao-
ileno during the time they were "catt!e
ccnters and their subsequent backsets,
and then recall the dullness and inactiv-
itv in business which for season sue
ceedcd the departure Of the longhorn
trade from Salina. In proof Of the lat
ter point look to the vast untitled and
unsettled fields of Texas, from whence
flows this trade, and look upon the
steady and substantial improvement Of
counties of Kansas, like our own, since
the withdrawal of the Texas herds there
from. Texas cattle are not wanted by
good farmers. Much better would 1t be
for the farming and agricultural inter
cs,s of Kansas if another longhorn va
never depastured on her soil. Stock
raisers Of Kansas, too, would hail with
pleasure tho day when the domestic
COW or steer could trace no relation will
the wild good-for nothing from Texas
which is not unlike its master and coun
try in habits and civilization"
The news, therefore, that Mexico II
robbing Texas Of cattle at the rate o
one thousand each month suits many
Kansans first rate. 1t is great pity tbs
the rate is net BY the hundreds Of thous

Kansas, soil of the lonshorns and III
train Of evils they bring with them.

The Democratic members Of tho House a
Representatives held caucus Saturday
night, and by very decided majority re-
solved to give the Hon. Fernando Wood, Of
New York, the highest evidence OF their re-
spcct, esteem and confidencc--a compliment.
ary vote for the spcakership. The Dems-
cratic party Is TO be congratulated upon the
selection their representatives have made,
and II Is really pity that they are not strong
enough TO make the nomination something
more than . mere compliment. In these
days OF reform, when q cry Gomez
up from the whole country for
honest men In Office; when the law
is laying Its strong hand upon criminals like
VIM. NJ. Tweed and sending them to the pcni-
tentiary; when the press Is waging q wal
upon corruption such as prcss never waged
before; whom every convention and political
meeting that Is held denounces the wicked.
noss Of the last few years, II is q cheering
slgn TO see tho Democratic members Of Con-
gress responding so promptly to the popular
demands. IL marks tho beginning Of new
era 10 our politics, and Is tho most conclusive
proof Of the honesty and sincerity Of the
party that claims to be par erceiie.oc the
party Of reform.
Mr.. Woods career Is pretty well known.
As leader Of the old Mozart Democracy, aud
mayor Of Now York, some very grave and
serious charges, like those we have bcen
hearing about the late Tammany ring, were
occasionally made against him. Angry and
bitter partisan editors like Mr.. Greeley, did
not mlucc their words In writing about him
and his administration. We shall not recall
tho very ugly names that were applied to
him; tho dark insinuatious about his partner
ship with persons, to be in partnership with
whom Is usually considered Disgrace II moi
o crime. For what would be the use2 Al
these charges, In view Of this Endorsement Of
his whole life by his fellow-membcrs
are evidently false and slanderous. Tn,
honorable gentleman Is assurcdly al
abused man so far Us all thes,
old-time allegations 20, and is eminently
worthy Of the exalted and sanity position Il
which he has attained, as tho reform leader
Of the great reform party. With the Hon.
John Morrisscy In the reform van In New
York, and Mr.. Wood In Washington, 1t must
be acknowledged that the Democracy is max
lug rapid headway toward rcgaining the con.
adenco IL lost some years ago when New
Ysrk mayor was shipping arms to the South.
crn confederacy, melting draft riots aud ad.
vocating the secession Of the commercial
metropolis from tho Union and her creation
into an independent, free city.
Mr.Wood Is one Of the gentlemen who tool
his back pay and never returned 1t to the
Treasury. The Democratic representatives
evidently indorsc that portion Of his record
also. But Is 1t not little strange In view of
all that we have been reading during the las,
six months?

AMONG the most prominent contested cleo
tion cases which will come before the House
Of Representatives this session Is that Of
General Maxwell against the Mormon Can
non. General Maxwell comes here with the
entire GENTLE vote, about 5000, while Can
non has the vote Of Mormon men, women,
and childen of ten years of age. There is q
precedent In that Of the contested delegation
from Kentucky, in 1858, for the House re-
fusing to permit regularly accredited men,
bers of Congress TO be sworn In. 1t appears
to US that this Is Q somewhat similar case.
Cannon has taken tho endowment oath, which,
as legally established, Is disloyal to the United
States Government. Moreover he Is notori-
ously known as q polygamist, aud Brigham
Young has boasted from his pulpit In the
tabernacle that In admitting Cannon the
Congress Of the United States will thereby
recognize the institution Of polygamy. II
Cannon Ia admitted 10 his seat there u no
doubt Brigham will proclaim 1t as an indorsc-
meat Of his peculiar Institution. II appears
to us that Congress will act wisely In declin-
ing to admit the Mormon missionary TO his
seat until assurance is given that he Is quali-
aed fer the same. 1t should be remembered
that In the Mormon phraseology, Cannon
comes, not Is delegate TO Congress from
Utah, but as the elder detailed from Zion TO
the Washington mission. Maxwell 10 an old
soldier, having lost q leg and hand In the
service. He was well known as the com
mander Of brigade Of Michigan cavalry.

IT Is REPORTED that General Butler will
propose to the House new standing rule In
reference to the raising Of committees Of In

portant extract from the report Of the secre-
tary Of the Navy, In which are briefly summed
up the present condition Of that branch Of
the service, together with Its necessi-
ties in view Of possible foreign complications.
The Secretary Of the Navy has responded TO
ae popular demand in putting the navy In q
high condition Of efficiency, and 1t Is mainly
owing to his erertions that we are in aposi-
ton to-day to resent the insult to our nag
and TO maintain our national honor.

Coop AND BAD FARMING. = There
never were more striking instances of
good and bad farming than can be found
in California Two thirds of all the
crop failures this year could have been
prevented by thorough tillage. Not an
instance has come to our knowledge
where wheat sown after summer fall
lowing, has failed to produce q fair crop.
In some townships the two kinds OF
farming are illustrated side by side. In
one field the crop is hardly worth har-
yesting; in the next it is up to the ave
rage standard. These striking contrasts
are to be found all oyer the State. The
dry weather. has not done SO much to
produce "spotted crops" as the lack OF
thoroughness and system. The farmer
who scratches in five hundred or a
thousand acres and pays no more atten-
ton to his wheat fields, is always. in the
vocative at the close of dry season.
The dry weather has, however, not been
half so unpronitiops as this shiftless
way of treating his land. No doubt
there are a considerable number of una
voidable failures. But we do know
that there are much greater number OF
failures which were not unavoidable this
year. The class of farmers who by
| laziness and sheer neglect, invited
lust the mere results seen in many pla-
ces this year, are the loudest in their
| complaints about the markets and com.
binations hostile to the farmer. Some
of the complaints are well founded
But with farmers, as in other calllngs,
men do not like to acknowledge thai

TIE ''PEAoEABLE" APAoHEs -Adyices
from Arizona Friday state that the In
dian agent at San Corlos, Major. LARA
bee, had some difficulty the Apaches
and they undertook to kill him with
spears He ran to Lieut.. Almy's tent,
and the latter with six soldiers went to
the agency with him. They went into
Larrabee's tent. Larrabee and Almy
came out of the tent, Larrabee in the
advance, when the Apaches fired on
them. Almy received three bullets,
passing through his body. He fell dead
without groan. Larrabee was I'M
touched, and retired into the tent. -Four
of the six soldiers ran. One of the two
who remained was prevented from shoot
ing by a Mexican interpreter at the
agency The Apaches then fled across
the river 1t is probable that many OF
them have taken to the mountains. A
message to Gov. Stafford, who left the
reservation half an hour before the oc-
currence, says that the majority OF the
Indians were there when he lett. ESke
Vousein, noted chief, had become an
CRY with the agent several days previous
and had left San Corlos with a large
band some time before the murder, The
Indians fired about forty shots at LARA
bee and Amy. 1t has been generally
thought for some time that an outbreak
was inevitable. Almy was. born in the
State of Massachusetts, and promoted tc
be First Lieutenant of the Fifth cav
airy in April, 1870.
