To all who are seeking new homes in or
are about to take a trip to Missouri, Kan
sas, Colorado, New Mexico, Nebraska,
Oregon, or California, we recommend a
cheap, safe quick and direct route by way
of st. Louis, over the Missouri Pacific
Through Line. 1t is equipped with fine
Day Coaches, Bucks Reclining Chair
Cars. Pullman's Palace sleepers, the IA
nous Miller Safety Platform, and the cell
ebrated Westinghouse Air Brake, and
runs its trains from st. Louis to princi-
pal points in the West aUiLh0ut change.
We believe that the Missouri Pacific
Through Line has the best track of any
road west of the Mississippi River, and
with its superior equipments & u~nrivaled
comforts for passengers, has become the
great popular thoroughfare between the
East and the West. Trains from the
North, South and East connect at st.
Louis with trains of the Missouri Pacific.
The Texas connection of this road is now
completed, and passengers are offered a
first class all rail route from st. Louis 10
Tevas, either over the Missouri, Kansas,
and Texas r. R.; ria SedGLiG, or over the
Atlantic and Pacific r. R., viG ERita.

KILL TIE POTATO BUds.-Several years
since when the same "potato bugs" that
are now playing havoc with the potato
vines IN this State, were at their destruct-
i've work in Wisconsin, and other Western
States, it was discovered that a certain
Paint known as ''Paris Green" (which is
simply "corroded copper') was sure death
to the bugs. The farmers Tor Changers
of this State Immediately began to use the
remedy almost universally. The demand
upon the manufacturers of that article be-
came so great, that it was found necessary
to increase their capacity very much, in
order to supply the demand.
Thousands of those were sold in those
States, and the result is that the bugs are
almost extinct. The same remedy is now
being used very successfully in this State
The most popular way of using it, Is tC
purchase of Sherrick & Miller, Hardware
dealers in this city, the Paris Green ane
take one table spoonful of the Paris Greer
to one pint ofland plaster, or -four, or dis
solve n table spoonful of the Paris Green
in n bucket Of water, and sprinkle OF
the vines, and the result is ''sure death
to the bugs, and the potatoes will be saved
from destruction.

LATE ccOunts from Wisconsin say that
all political omens point to the defeat OF
Senator Matt Carpenter in his attempt to
return TO the United States Senate. A
correspondent of the Chicago Tribune says
Mr.. Carpenter is certain to be a candidate
for reelection, and that his defeat is Just
as certain. He explains as follows:
"The fact is, he is politically dead to all
intents and purposes, and the people Of
this State will bury his remains lust
as soon as the law will allow. l have
but little faith in the Republican party
but have too much to believe for a mo.
ment that they can by any possibility be
united on Carpenter. Should my conf
dence in the honesty Of the party be mis-.
placed or unfounded as regards to theiI
intentions, the propositionIs guarded most
completely by the fact that they will moi
have the ability to elect Carpenter, ever
If they should make the united effort IL
his behalf"

The Cleveland Herald speaks its mind
on the disposition made of Judge Rich.
ardson in a most refreshing way, II
says
eve do not know that Mr.. Richardson
IS unit for that position, but we do know
that public sentiment, well grounded, de-
manded the resignation of Mr.. Richardson
as Secretary of the Treasury, and we are
lntexibly opposed to the President pro-
vlding a feather bed for an official to strike
upon who is compelled to leap from the
window. This business of transferring an
incompetent man TO some other Office has
come to be an abuse the country should
no longer permit. Why is it that when
an official is found wanting in the neces-
sary requisites for able discharge of his
duty, he should have his fall broken by
allowing him to Jump into another govern
mental place? The principle is ali wrong.
The practice-which is a chronic one with
all administrations-should be broken up.
II a man Is found incompetent to fill one
high Office under Government, the infer
ence is lie is unfit to fill another ofice."

TIE Cleveland Leader ridicules Boss
Shepherd and his associates for their "soI-
emn and stately resolutions of ~displeasurs
against Mr.. Adolph Cluss, the German
Engineer, whose testimony made such sad
haYoc with their records" The Leader
says those resolutions Sound very ride
ulous to people at a distance from the
scene" and at can readily be understood
why Mr.. Cluss, since his revelations, has
not been considered cheerful or inspiring
company for Oertley and Forsyth and
Shepherd, but that the conspirators whose
armor he has punctured should think to
kill him off with a resolution Of censure is
a thing which rises at once to the stand
ard of comedy" The Leader is loyal, and
has nothing TO say about the prompt ac-
ton of the President. Grant removed this
honesE man on the frivolous and contempt
IDLE charge, preferred by the rascals who
had been damaged by his truthfulness tn at
he had been guilty Of perjury. What are
we to think Of Grant for that sort of COM
plaisance toward the robbers of the Dis
trict of Columbia?

PROTECTION NOT PROTECTION.

A delegation of locomotive manufacture
ers were before the Senate Finance Com
mittee at Washington last week, to appeal
for q drawback On imported steel tire for
engine wheels which has been imported
from England. The manufacturers COM
plain hat trade is very dull, but that they
have an order for locomotives from Prus-
sia which they cannot fill if they are not
allowed the rebate on English tire steel.
A fitting commentary on the present pro-
tective policy.-Erchdnge.
Thus has so-called protection" ever

dering and robbery. All such laws ope-
rate in favor of irresponsible capital mon
ey, and to the terrible injury of all hon

The Indiana Republicans are worried
about the initiation question in connection
with the action of their next State Con-
vention. The farmers entrance into poll
lies has The same effect upon them as il
has in Illinois, which is to make them ex
c~eedingly nervous about putting on any
extra load for the coming campaign in the
shape Of questions of doubtful popularity.
But Senator Morton demands an indorse-
ment, and the faithful are bound to give
it at any risk 10 the party. The risk will
be less in Indiana, however, than 1T will
in Illinois, since the former is doubtless
the strongest imitation State in the Union.

TIE Cincinnati Enquirer and the few
other Democratic papers in this State that
are belaboring Senator Thurman, because
he did not act and vote with the Mortons,
Logans and Buffers, surely do not stop to
consider that the present distressing fnan-
cial condition of the country is the result
of Republican rule, and Senator Thurman
is not one who thinks "the hair of the
same dog will cure the bite" Our cotem-
poraries say Judge Thurman took sides
with Grant; but they should remember and
be candid enough to say SO, that Senator
Thurman's course was prior to Grants
veto of the measure, and, indeed, when the
bill passed Congress, it wal generally sup
posed that Grant would conform his action
with that Of his party in Congress and
readily approve. President Grants specia
friends in Congress were Morton, Logan,
Butler & Co., and few doubted that he
would act in onjunction with them. 1t will
not do, therefore to accuse Senator Thur
man of taking sides with Grant. 1t is the
Enquirer, 60 IL Omne genus, that do sail
with Morton, Logan, Butler & Company.

Der of the Grange. delivered a lengthy dis
course at the Anti Secret Society Conven-
ton held at Syracuse, N. Y, last week.
It was an onslaught upon the character
and aims OF that farmers institution. He
says the Grange was organized by the SUI
p~erintsndent of the Public Gardens at
Washington, assisted by o. H. Kelly, a
department clerk at Washington. about
1866 or 1867. He tries to show that the
power is vested in a few head-leaders.
Thirteen persons constitute a subordinate
grange, and the first business IL to send to
abe National Grange at Washington $50 for
dispensation, rituals, song books and re-
gala. He says hours and days are spent
in learning and r%eciting "the beautiful IN
written work" of The order, "a senseless
mummery and waste oftime." lie speaks
of meeting with the d~ignitaries of the Ma
tionaI Grange who, be found, were with
out dignity = in fact. "were men who would
hardly be tolerated in refined society
Mr.. Greene is from Tennessee, and he says
