ThePOItce and Rene nterS.


The Democratic organ has of late
much to say about expected Democra-
tic majorities At the municipal election
next Tuesday, and from the tone of its
editorial it is evident that an attemrt t
is to be made to play the same miser-
able farce that the police and a gang of
repeaters played last September. 1t is
no secret that the thing is all set up in
several wards and the repeaters are on
hand to do the same work over again
but with a little more caution on &C.
count Of the exposures made by the RE.
PUBLICAN. 1t is well known fact that
over 600 illegal votes were polled at
the last city election by the Democrats,
a hundred or more Of them pelled by
some twelve or fifteen repeaters employ
ed by Democrats to do that work. Some
of them voted ten and twelve times and
some Of the policemen whom the Gazette
exhorts to look out for Republican re.
peaters next Tuesday, were the persons
who escorted some Of those Democratic
repeaters around from poll to poll and
voted them.
The Gazette may in its virtuous in
dignation deny this. OF course it will
for it denies every thing which would
reflect upon the honesty of its party,
but the policemen who did this thing
know that what We say is true. So far
as can be ascertained there was not a
Republican repeater at the polls last
September but there were some few,
very few, who voted without the prop
er qualification in all respects, and
these few did so without the knowledge
or intention Of violating the law. There
will be no Repub blican repeaters at the
polls next Tuesday, neither will any
Republican attempt to vote without
being properly qualified.
The admonition Of the Gazette for the
police to look out for Republican re,
psaters,is entirely gratuitous and we are
inclined TO think it is intended for an
excuse for the police to hang around
the polls with their pockets full Of
blank tax receipts for any stray Demo
vrat who may chance to come along and
can be induced to vots a Democratic
ticket. We say to the Gazette and GER
lain members OF the police force that
their schemes to carry the election next
Tuesday by force and fraud are not so
deep that tLey cannot be fathomed.
The trus purp zee for bringing a no
,orious repeater from Philadslphia just
at this time on the eve Of an election,
which warrant could havs as easily
been served and the Iepe ter brought
down months ago, Is well understood.

VALUE OF RICE STRAW.

As to the relative value Ct rice
straw. hay. and other articles of
rough feed, many inquiries and
some observations have been made
4 planter of experience and ac-
knowledsed good Judgment in such
matters. WHO mas for the past four
wears fed his horses, mules and cat
lie "n it, gives rs his oi,:.Gon that i
is an excellent rough feed-they
eating it with as mu,.n relish rs they
would fodder. pca-viues, or Western
hay, and their good condition after
having wiEtered on it proving that
it is equally as nutritious. There
are some VINO hold that it is prefer
able to the pea-vine hay. the article
of rough feed generally used here.
while there are many who. after
having used 1t Tor only ii short while
claim that it is good substitute
for it. For the past two years my
own horses have eaten it, and
their condition would at any time
have compared f,voyably with that
of other animals fed OH the best
qualities Of fodder, pea-vine, or
Western hay. To say the least OF
it, this matter is worthy of investi-
CATION; and owing TO the chenpness

WHAT THERE is IN 4 COT
TON STALK.

We have seen it suggested that
the fibre on the cotton stalk can be
made into bagging just as well as
jute or hemp, and thus become as
remunerative to the planter as the
cotton i'self. That the cotton
stalks contain valuable tibres, that
it IS a fine material for manufacture
ing purposes, has been the belief OF
intelligent people for some time
and why the same is not utilized,
in the way of makiLg bagging for
instance, IS to us most strange.
1t has been estimated that three
acres of ground viii produce on az
average, as well known, two bales
of cotton. weighing five hundred
pounds each, which, when sent to
market, brings ten cents a pound,
making the two bales worth one
hundred dollars whereas the stalks
OF the plant on the same acres viii
yield from one to one and half
tons of fibre, which, if properly pre-
pared, would he bound to be equal
II us fine as Mahillu, and worth at
any time from s120 to $3.50, or,
perhaps, more than that per ton.
We derive these points Tor the most
part from ii correspondent OF Il New
Orleans paper, who appears 70
know whereof he speaks. A sample
of the fibre OF the cotton stalks can
be seen ut the New Orleans Times
oflice-and that it can be converted
into bagging, even as jute or hemp
can, we have every reason for be-
heving. Ii the course of time we
will See Labor constantly employed
in converting this valuable mat rial
into bagglng not inferior to any

PROFIT OF SHEEP RAISING.

Four years ago Mr.. Fleet bought
ten head of sheep, says the Mankato
RecieU, for which he paid 81 for
each, or $40 for the lot. The first
Year the wool crop sold for s1S, the
second. S3S; and the third, $50; or
a total OF $142. He has killed
six head, which have Melted him
more than the original outlay, and
still has fifty head of cid sheep and
thirty young ones, from which he
estimates that he will shear ut least
$3.50 worth of WOOL. This will give
$500 for wool in the four years and
his flock is worth $3.50 more. OF
course their keeping has been q
source Of expense, but the benefit
of II flock OF sheep in keeping down
weeds and brush on il farm almost
compensate for their care A farmer
of experience In wool-growing has
well said that there is more money
in growing wool ut twenty cents II
pound than to loan your money at
ten per cent. interest.
The Dixie Farmer, discussing the
subject OF sheep culture, says that
last fall Jerry Spaudling, of Ionia,

OF sheep, paying 3 80 to 81 head,
the flock averaging less than So
