ture to make liquor sellers and liquor
drinkers pay a larger amount of rev.
snue into the State treasury than
they have ever done heretofore.
Several bills have been introduced
looking to this end. This is, per-
haps. the proper step to take on the
liquor question at the present time,
aud as the amount OF the school fund
is not sufficient to keep open the
public SCHOOLS for eve months in each
year, it would, we think, be good
idea to apply all the money raised
from q tax on liquor to the education

debt which was not first submitted
to the people for ratification or re-

resolution. Riley is, doubtless,

that river than was ever known be-
fore, and when it broke up and float

great rapidity. The fish were en-
tirely numb and half frozen, so they
hoated with the turbulent water and
were thrown out on the banks in
large numbers. or ground to death

A RADICAL paper intimates that
the move to impeach Chancellor
Smith originated with Democratic
lawyers, who hoped thereby to OBJ
tain the place for some one of them
selves By appointment. This is not
our understanding Of the matter.
We do not believe any Democratic
lawyer had anything to do with it..
On the other hand nearly all the gen
.lemen of the bar belonging to that
party have signed a protest against
the impeachment. There are a few
lawyers in this Chancery Division
who are not firmly fixed in any pc
liticaI party. They might be called
"half.breeds," ''mulattoes," ina
dungeons" "hermaphrodiLes," or
something of that sort. Certainly
they are not full.blooded he-Demo-
Gratis i; and these, we guess, are the
fellows who are getting up the i'm
parchment. Judge Smith need not
give himself any uneasiness. He
will serve his time out on the Beach
if he lives-and don't go to Con
gress.

UNDER the four years teaching OF

OF Tennessee had about come to the
conclusion that the bonded debt of
the State was an honest debt-one
that we really owned, and the only
reason why we did not pay it of.
dollar for dollar" and pay it quick,
was, on account of our 'impecuni-
arity." We had, further, about
made up our mind 10 the fact, that
the bond-holders in proposing to
take so cents, and some Of them 30
cents in the dollar, were lot Of
magnanimous gentlemen who de.
served to be specially mentioned ia
the Sabbath morning prayers of all
the orthodox ministers in the State.
But now Gov Marks has gone and
Knocked all that in the head. We
really don't owe anything, except
the Capitol bonds and the Hermit
age bonds. Our new Governor has
written one message and has put the
State clean, smack out Of debt.
Well. we have thought all along
there WAS something wrong in this
matter, and now we are worse tan.
gled up than we ever were before.
OF one thing, however, we are cer-
tain, when we become the owner of
a million Of dollars we will not in.

were bravely grunting defiance. The
wolf was running around them, swapping
his jaws and doing all in his power to
frighten afaint-hearted pig out of the cir
Gle. The compact ring Of sturdy little
black porkers slowly moved down the
road, never faltering, but constantly
keeping up their war grunt As they
passed me at about twenty five yards, |
rebuked the coyote with an ounce Of No.
10 bird shot. He suddenly lost interest
in pork, and retired to the hills to hunt
jack rabbits. / never had any anxiety
about my pigs after that.
Once | built pen for 100 stock hogs
by deep pond of water. / ran the
fence out into the pond to where the
water was five feet deep; then l took
logs and, claiming them together,
stretched them between the ends of the
fence. This made a pen with big pond
In it, and the pigs could not get out un-
less they dived under the logs. I was
raised in the belief that a pig could not
swim. The hogs were driven to the
pen, put in, and, as | had self-feeding
corn-bins that were full, | flattered my
self that was rid Of the personal care Of
those hogs until butchering time. The
result was that they became such expert
They would swim out to the logs and
dive under. If / went to the pen on
horseback, accompanied by my dog, /
would gather them up by setting the
dog on them, make them all jump into
the pond, swim to the log, plunge under
it and swim ashore into their pen. There
the dog dared not follow.
The courage Of a SOW with young in
her nest is something wonderful No
wild animal that walks on Kansas soil
can drive her from them. She will die
in defense of her pigs, and the wolf
doesn't live that can get the better Of
razor-baek sow. She will always eat
young pigs, provided they are not her
own. Her own she never eats. The
pigs Of any other sow she considers le-
gitimate food, and she win eat them up
to the time that they are three weeks
old; and any other sow in turn will eat
her pigs. The sows regard each other
with an evil eye. Distrust, doubt, un-
certainty reign everywhere until the
pigs are quick and active. Then the
friendly family relations are resumed.
1t is strange, but I have never seen a
boar eat young pigs, and I have had all
kinds-from the blooded g wind-split-
ters'' to the pure Berkshires-and I never
had pig eaten by one of them.
