The Vermillion Standard now bases its OBJ
lection to Gov. Pennington's reappointment
on new ground-that it fears such action
would prove injurious to the republican party.
Its solicitud in this direction is remarkable in
view of the past political record of its editor
who but a brief twelve months ago published
as complete democratic newspaper as the
state OF Nebraska knew. On the other
hand Governor Pennington's record as a
steadfast republican is clear enough to ban
ish all fear of his political loyalty from the
mind of even an unprejudiced convert to
the faith, however zealons he may be in
behalf of his new found faith. He came to
Dakota when the republican party was brok-
en- into contending factious and possessed no
strength rs an organization. Chaos reigned
and democratic delegate represented the
territory in the halls of congress. In the
complete and effective reorganization of the
party Governor Pennington took promi-
nent part and to his efforts are largely due
the solid republican majorities which have
rescued the territory from democratic iule.
Not alone was Governor Pennington in this
work, but he did his full share, and to say
that he is now an element of discord in the
party and source Of danger to its future
is putting itstronger than past history will
warrant. The charge comes with poor grace
from one who is not yet certain which side
ofthe political fence he stands upon and has
himself been an element of political and
social discord in his community ever since
he erected his printing Office upon Dakota
soil,

meaning here. If these views are correct
it necessarily follows that the portions of the
treaty setting aside certain country as res
ervation and declaring certain other parts OF
territory as unceded Indian country have no
binding force until the same is approved by
congress"
But it has been insisted by counsel that
even if no reservation existed this country
was, at the time of the alleged location OF
said mine, unceded Indian country closed
to settlement and occupation by the whites
This position do not regard as tensble. As
before stated oil the lands within the limits
of this government which is not In some
legal way granted, disposed OF, set apart or
appropriated to some particular purpose
constitute the public lands, and it is now the
settled policy of the government to Sc tie all
Indian tribes on prescribed and limited res
ervaticns and not to recognize IN them any
right even Of occupancy outside of such
reservations. If this position he not cor
rect, If lands to which the so called Indian
title IL not extinguished are not public lands,
why exempt them from the provisions OF
the pre-emption and homestead laws, and
why not exempt them from occupation and
settlement of miners in the mining act II

How te Inyn Drain Tile,

An Ohio farmer laid 60 rods of drain Lille,
beginning at the lower end while the men
were digging out the ditch above him, and
the result was that the whole 60 rods had 20
be taken up, a,Gcr the ditch was filled with
earth, in consequence of the tile Lecom ing
filled with mud, as any farmer ough. to have
known would be the result. In laying tile
always begin at the upper end, and when
there are lateral drains lay them before you
lay the main conductors. The man 10 whom
refer above says in regard TO his work after
he had corrected his mistake: Il now COM
menced with my si1 inch tile, at the upper
end, took in each branch rs passed by, put
ting in six inch sewer pipe with four inch
branch till all was finished. now found my
tile all clean, the water running out clear, and
all working in first-rate order. Results: The
land, almost as soon as the bitches were in,
became dry enough TO plow-when horse
could not have walked across it before, I'D
is now In good order" Pine boards six and
seven inches wide, nailed together at their
edges with three cross strips on the under
side to hold them in shape will last 20 or 60
years when used in the place OF tile. Even
hemlock boards have been known to make
GOOD drains Is years. The drains should be
not over 80 to 40 feet apart, and at least two
feet deep; and where the fall is sufficient TO
allow the drain three feet deep it is better to
make it of that depth.

just brought peaches TO Portland from there

which preserves them in their natural state.
The Rev. W. 81. II. Murray thinks that
the trotting powers of racc-horses can be
greatly enhanced by better attention to their
feet than they are accustomed to get. He is
experimenting with loaded leathern sack
attached to each of the forward hoofs of
fast going mare, decreasing the weight as the
animal becomes accustomed to trotting, and
dispensing with the use Of the ordinary toe
weight.
Mr.. P. De. Roche, a large and successful
gardener of Waterville, keeps the currant
worm at bay and saves his currants and
gooseberries, by drenching his bushes few
times with soap suds, which is very handily
do by means of a common garden force
pump-the proportion being halt a pail OF
soap to barrel of water. He treats his fruit
trees and rose bushes in the same way as
rejection against insect enemies, and also
his onion bed to save it from the maggot.
One ton of dried seaweed made into ma
nure, returns to the soil three times IS much
inorganic matter IS manure made from one
ton of straw or the same amount Of hay; and
twenty pounds OF dried or eighteen pounds OF
fresh seaweed contains as much nitrogen as
one hundred and eighty pounds of barley
straw.
One of the industries which HIS suffered
most from the California drought has been
bee culture. This has been carried on very
successfully of late in the Southern part of
the state; but so complete has been the de-
struction OF bee feeding plants that it is
doubtful whether the business will pay again
for long time.
The crop prospec'7 in Piscataquis county
indicate that the hay crop will be below an
average, the first crop will be small and other
crops promise well. An unusually large area
has been planted and sown.
The Aroostook farmers this year have en-
gagged in farming on an almost western scalee
Never before have such large areas been
planted. Fields of wheat containing six or
eight acres ere common. Many farmers have
from thirty to fifty acres of other crops.
The hay crop promises ID be abundant and
the other crops indicate large yields.
