Another clerk of the Louisiana returning
board has just testified that some of the affi-
davits were made by the clerks in the COM
piling room. This was weeks after the cleo
ton, and he further stated that most any
name tpds signed TO the atdarits," and that the
order given TO the clerks was to make the
votes for the electors even-viz.: If the first
one had SOC votes and the third one 30, the
order was to "even them up" And this
was the way that Hayes carried Louisiana,
and the electoral commission selected for the
very purpose to hunt up fraud decides not to
go behind the returns Cannon.

in mind that insanity, il genuine, is shown in
other ways than by single act; that hypo-
thetfcal questions are useless, each case re-
curing thorough examination on its own in
dividual merits, and that aperson whom no
physician would hesitate to pronounce insane
may nevertheless commit crime with reason
ing, culpable purpose"
1t will be we'll for communities not to
allow their sympathy for the really unfortu-
nate to carry them beyond the bounds of
prudence, or to an extent that shall enable
the vicious to escape just penalties. The
noble benevolence of the age should not be
dragged down from its exalted purpose and
made, by legal technicalities to shield crime
or expose society to the bloody procliyitiss
of assassins under the plea of insanity.

Old Zach'S bank account shows a ten
thousand dollar draft fitting westward no!

and he in turn Endorsed 1t to the republican
state committee of Ohio. What a ''hella-
'baloo" the radicals would raise if such a
matter was shown upon Mr.. Tilden. Jay
Gould gave $4,000. If Hayes is counted in,
ne will make it back four or five times over.
Mr.. Hoar also gave over $4,000. He is on
the electoral commission, and won't lose
sight of that money you may be sure, as he
votes for the Hayes interest. Gould would
have made another good commissioner.

tanned by the attacks of about a thousand
other species of insects which affect our
cereals, forage and field crops, fruit trees
and shrubs, garden vegetables, shade and
ornamental trees, as we'll as our hard wood
and pine forests, and stored fruits, and it
will not be thought an exaggeration to put
our annual losses at about $500, 100000"
1t is not surprising, therefore, in view of
this array of figures, that aid is ex-
pected from the general government
to arrest the destruction by the insect
enemies of agriculture. 1t is believed that
with care and forethOught, based on the OBJ
servation of facts by scienti6c men, that
from $50,OoO.OOO to S1OO,OOO,OO0 can be
saved annually, and the recommends
way is for the states to cooperate with
the general government in the appointment
of salaried entomologists, and of a United
States commission of entomologists, who
should, perhaps, combine the results
of the state officials and issue
weekly bulletins, perhaps In combination
with the reports of the weather signal bu-
'reau, as to the conditions of the insect
world, forewarning farmers and gardeners
from week to week as to what enemies
should be guarded against, and what pre-
'ventive and remedial measures should be
adopted"
Evidently the matter is assuming an i'm
portance that will at no distant day COM
mand the attention of the government, and
that provision will be made to save the
products of the soil from the ravages of their
insect enemies
