now THE PARSON LIED.

Old Parson s., OF Connecticut, was Il
particular kind oi a person. One day he
had n man ploughing in his field. and he
went out to see how the work was getting
on. The ground was very stony, and
every time the plough struck a stone the
man took occasion TO swear little.
Look here,n cried Parson S, ''you
must not swear that way in my field"
"Wcll, | reckon you'd swear. too"
said the man, "if you had to plough such
a stony field as this"
Not bit of it, said Mr.. S, "Just
let me show you."
So the parson took hold of the plough,
but he very soon had considerable trouble
with the stones. As stone after stone
caught the ploughshare. Mr.. S. eiacuat-
ed:
"Well, | never saw the likem
And this he repeated every time n stone
stopped his onward way. As soon as he
had ploughed around once, he stopped
and said 10 the man:
There, now! You see can plough
without swearing
''But guess it's pretty near as bad to
lie." answered the man, land you told
dozens O. lies. Every time the plough
struck a stone. you said, Il never saw the
like when the same thing happened n
minute beiore.''

A TREATISE on CIDER.

The season for making cider has ar
rived, and with it the season for sending
the rounds of the newspaper receipts for
keeping cider sweet. All substances that
keep cider sweet neutralize its properties
chemically. and then it is MO more like
cider than molasses and water. All the
>tomachic properties OF cider are destroyed
by this chemical change, and it remains
unwholesome and sickening. The natu-
Ial property of cider is TO terment, and to
turn sour in degree. rs does wine by
fermentation. If made with the same
care rs wine. and saved in the same way.
ii is as palatahlc rs any of the sour Ger
man or French wines, and is better tor the
stomach. But the way most OF the cider
is made by farmers and others is dis
grace.
Rotten or windfall apples should no
more be made into cider than into "apple
butter" One is rs nasty rs the other. Ii
farmers want cider that shall be rs good
rs the wines which cost ten times rs much,
they can make it with ordinary care and
ordinary decency. Use none but sound
and clean apples. Some kinds are better
than others, but almost any sound ripe APP
pies will make cider that is good to have.
'i'NN Npui a'o BiVSS NAS'hs Noh
think that the nastiness OF a hog pen is
good enough for cider. Don't dilute with
wafer. The present grinding mill leaves
but little pumce in the juice. and if made
with decency there will be but little to
settle. Put the idice in clean barrels.
Don't think to improve it by using old
whiskey barrels without cleaning. Put it
in cool cellar. and give it no more vent
than is required to keep from bursting the
cask.
Ii farmers want to keep it more nicely
than this, let them follow the methods OF
the wine makers. but avoid adding any
substance either to the flavor or extend or
reinforce or to stop fermentation. Fer
mentation gives it the soul; without that
it is dead As with wine, cider deterior-
ates in the cask when drawn upon. Full
casks are needed to keep it at its best.
Yet a barrel may keep in fair condition
drawn upon in the winter and spring.
Farmers could find market for cider
made in this merely decent and honest
way but most of that which is called
cider is n nasty cheat. Good cider ls bet
ter for dinner digester than any of the
foreign or native table wines. One diff
Guilty is, it seems 50 cheap and common
that one is apt to drink several times as
much rs he would of these wines, yet it
has about the same alcoholic strength.

THE OUTLOOK.

The political skies are bright.
From every quarter the indications
point to an overwhelming Republi-
can victory. Not awed by . solid
South, the Union-loving men of the
North are standing shoulder to
shoulder, and are earnestly laboring
for the success of Garfield and Ar
thur. For short time the partial
defeat in Maine had q discouraging
effect, but the total rout of the enc
my in Ohio and Indiana has SO
changed the situation that the most
sanguine Democrat must admit that
there is no chance of Hancock's elec-
ton. But Republicans of Mime
sofa, you must remember that the
splendid majorities in these States
cannot be counted here. You must
make your own majority, and you
must make it as big as possible.
Your brethren in New York, Penn
sylvania, and elsewhere throughout
the North, expect to hear good
things of You, and you cannot re-
joice as you should with them unless
you vote the straight Republican
ticket from top to bottom. There
can be no doubt of the result, but
each one must do his duty toward
accomplishing what we hope will be
the final overthrow of the Demo
cratic party and a solid South. The
Republican party will win in this
contest, but its members must not
stop their work until the polls close
next Tuesday.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1880-10-28
A MISTAKE.

Mr.. Paxton labors under a serious
mistake when he states, in q circular
which he has widely circulated in
the county, that Mr.. Ensign said
in the Republican convention that he
did not want the Office, and that the
nomination had been forced upon
him. It was Mr.. Paxton's misfortune
If he did not understand what Mr..
Ensign's remarks were at the time he
made them. In accepting the nomi-
nation, after all the gentlemen who
had been before the convention had
expressed their hearty satisfaction at
his success, he said in substance that
he had ouly been candidate for the
reason that he had been urged by
others; that he had not sought Office;
that he had not come into the con-
vention expecting the nomination,
and that he was very thankful for
the honor it had conferred upon him.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1880-10-28

For years Mr.. Paxton has been a
Democrat of Democrats. But fe
months ago he was delegate to the
Democratic State convention at St.
Paul, and helped to elect the dele.
gates to Cincinnati who nominated
Hancock. He will vote for Hancock
and Poehler, and yet would like to
have Republicans believe that poll.
tics should not be considered in the
selection of county officers. His po'
sition reminds us of the old couplct,
which says:
when the dell was sick, the dell . monk
would be;
When the dell was well, the dell monk was
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1880-10-28

1t is hardly necessary for US to
urge the people of this section of the
county to support Mr.. Ensign for
Clerk of Court. Presented as he is
by the Republicans of the county,
and endorsed by men without regard
70 party as candidate that would
do honor to any ticket, there will be
no trouble about his election. As
we will in all probability have candi-
dates for Office next year from this
locality, we will expect every Re-
publican to vote for them. But can
we look for this if we do not vote
for Mr.. Ensign at this time? He
stands we'll at home, and his friends
there cannot be complained of for
insisting that we as Republicans do
in 1880 as we shall wish to be done
by in 1881. Did not Mr.. Ensign
possess the clerical ability, together
with all the other requirements
needed to discharge the duties Of
Clerk of Court satisfactorily, we
would not press his claims. We
have no doubt of his election, bnt
he should have . good majority.
We owe this to the party he repre-.
sents, to Mr.. Ensign himself, as we'll
as to his friends in the south side Of
the county. Let every Republican
vote for Mr.. Ensign.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1880-10-28

Bishop Gordon, of this place, a
member of the Democratic Congress
sional committee for this district,
and Encr Birum and John Homer,
two well-known political scalpers,
have been travelling over this and
adjoining counties during the past
week: working together for the de-
feat of the Republican ticket. No
fault is to be found with Mr.. Gordon,
who is exercising his rights as an
American citizen in behalf of his
party's candidate. But it is our duty
to warn Republicans of his activity,
and to advise them of the dolngs of
Birum and Homer. These men,
failing in their repeated attempts to
influence the selection of delegates
to the county and representative con-
ventions, are now doing their utmost
to defeat the Republican nominees.
Neither Birum nor Homer have any
standing in any party. They are
willing tools to do the bidding of
Bishop Gordon and the Democrats.
Republicans who wish the success of
Garfield, Strait and Braley should
have nothing to do with these men.
Stand by your party's ominees, and
roll up such majority in Redwood
county as will show that you possess
nerve and intelligence enough to
vote without any dictation from these
men.
Since writing the above, we learn
that Democratic tickets have APP
peared with the names of S. d. Pc
terson for Senator, Ener Birum for
Representative, and Bishop Gordon
for Judge of Probate.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1880-10-28

The St. Paul Globe, in a labored ar
ticle, tries to create the impression
thatthroughoutthe Eastand West the
men who served in the Union armies
are going to vote for Hancock. The
Globe, as usual when it makes any
political statement, is lying under a
mistake. The soldiers of the South,
the followers of Lee, Hampton and
Davis, will vote for Hancock. The
men who wore the blue, and stood
by Lincoln, Grant and the flag, will
vote as they shot-that is, against
the Democratic party and its candi.
dates.
