if this paper (Adoance) is not in
favor Of Donnelly's new party, what does
this language mean? If the Advance had
been wise friend of the Patrons of Hus-
bandry, it would have rebuked this viola
tion Of the organic law Of the Order bv
Donnelly, instead Of aiding him in his party
scheme.
In ordinary times We would be will
ing to devote columns to instruct the
News as to our future course and in
tentions, but can now only briefly refer
1t to the ADVANCE Of May 9Th and 18th
where, by intense application, it may
learn considerable; but just now we
have the dead weight of the decrepid
old Pioneer on our hands which needs
close attention. AS they say, you know,
1t has recently made a "shp," which
little irregularity has caused all its old
democratic acquaintances coldly to turn
their backs upon it, and say it is none
OF theirs; and notwithstanding its edito-
rial manager shows the marks of the
collar he wore, stamped with Grants
official seal, yet the modest republicans
refuse to adopt the bantling. This
leaves the poor thing out in the cold,
toraging for a precarious subsistence in
unknown pastures.
We are apprehensive if the Pioneer
is not carefully handled it will 90 over
body and breeches to Donnelly. It has
already had him thoroughly interviewed,
given in sort of tacit adhesion, but we
still hope with the aid Of the Ne,cs to
keep the thing from stopping over too
much before the farmers in mass have
had their say.
Here is the style in which the heart
less mortals talk:
The most, and in fact all the Democratic
papers Of the State, 80 far as we have seen
them, take . similar view to tne ArQu, of
the turns and tumbles in politics which the
st. Paul Pioneer has taken so often It has
no political status that recommends it to
Democrats as worthy Of their support.
David Blakely, the present owner Of the
Pioneer, may make good Republican editor,
but the Democratic party does not need his
services.-Shakopee Argus.

BERLIN, MIMI. May 10th.
Editors Grange Advance:
Having just been out in my garden and
seeing the first bright flowers Of Spring,
the tulips and bright little crocus, remind
ed me that had not said one word about
the bulb family, and they are one of the
most interesting of all the flower family,
the hardy bulbs, such as the tulip, crQcus,
hyacinth and narcissis. know of nothing
that will give so much pleasure with as lit
tie trouble as the hardy bulbs. They seem
to defy the cold and stormy weather, and
send up their gay blossoms so early in the
Spring. The time for planting all hardy
bulbs is in October, and after they are
planted they can remain in the ground all the
time. You only want to divide them every
year or two for they multiply so fast; if not
divided the blossoms will be very small and
they will not blossom near as long. After
they get thorough blossoming you can put
few plants Of verbena or petunois in with
them and have gay bed all Summer.
The lilies. the queen Of the family, are 80
hardy we should have a few Of the tiger
lilies candidum and lancifolium are per-
fectly hardy, only 20 cents apiece Who
says they cannot afford them? They must
be planted deep, and they must not be dis
turbed for few years. They increase in
size and beauty as they grow older. Their
stems with their thick glossy leaves are an
ornament Of themselves. The tender or
Summer bulbs, such as the dahlia, and
gladiolus, flower in Autumn. They can be
forced to blossom in midsummer by start
ing them in the house early. Where we
have only few it is good plan, with the
dahlia especially. I have never tried it
myself but called ut q friends house last
June and actually saw her dahlia in bios

panty, since 1t came uto O yer Ia this State, has

hundreds of dollars are expended at each vot

said in recent speech in Congress: "If God
Almighty had gone preaching in that wilder

not have kept the hair ON his head twenty -four

on what Indians he preached among. If they
were familiar with the ways that are dark,

would be fulfilled; but if they were unacquain-

longing for any body's hair. We have been
acquainted with Indians all of our life, and
have ever found them obging, kind, hospitable,
