THE editor of the McGregor News
has been interviewing Hon. VIM. Lar
rabee relative to his candidacy for Con-
gress. 1t says: I'VE gather from an
interview with him that he might accept
provided the nomination be rendered
him, but will not work for it. He says
there will be enough work after the
nomination is obtained

THE Democratic managers in Con-

investigation of the Presidents title to
his office, based upon the revelations
of McLin and Dennis, the Florida car
pet-baggers, is undertaken not with any
hope or intention of ousting Hayes and
seating Tilden, but only to make party
capital for the next campaign. 1t is not
probable that ever for this purpose the
project will pan out we'll.

Ing the election Of 1876 they must not
think they can stop with the Returning
Board proceedings in Louisiana and
Florida. The investigation will be no
such one sided affair. Republicans will
demand that the influences which wiped
out their majority Of 10000 in MiSsissip.
pi, Of 10000 in Alabama, and Of 10000
10 South Carolina shall be inquired into.
Thew will see that . little more light Is
thrown upon the Hamburg and Ellenton
maSsacres in South Carolina, the bull.
doing operations in Louisiana, and the
rifle club campaign in Mississippi. When
they have got through with the South
they will do little investigating in Mr..
Tilden's back parlor, and put some I'm.
comfortable questions about those dis
patches for the purchase OF Republican
Elector in Oregon, and about Senator
Barnum's mule operations in Indiana.
Iuiadicious Democrats, who are 80 eager
to stir up the election controversy to

free love, where every child would be pro-

man likewise.
Mrs. Anna NJ. Midddlebrook a Spirit

the wife was slave. The only salvation
for mankind was female suffrage.

passed declaring that all usury laws
should be abolished; that 1t should not
be legal to collect usury interest, and
that the people being the country all

be more than three feet deep, but / like
to have them that depth whenever l can,
80 that the tile or stone will always be
below the frost. Usually, too, the extra
depth will drain wider space each side
than at two and half feet. Some OF my
neigkbors who put in drains only two
feet deep, find that they fill up and be-
come worthless very soon. My drains,
the tirst OF which were laid twenty seven
years ago this coming summer, are appar.
emily as good as ever, and likely to last

Very often there are chances to make

usually only practicable after the more

drain the swamp, which is now as pro-
ducliye as any part OF the farm. ] have
made this swamp lot manure other ileldT,
feeding the grain and hay grown here and
drawing the manure to higher fields.
In mucky soils ! find that superphosphate,
and possibly ashes, are more profitable
than barnyard manure. The vegetable

ground. A Well-drained mncky soil Is
