The failure Of IL c Republican party
to openly nominate State ticket has
lullcd our people into sense Of Sc
curity, and has inspired the belief
that there is no real contest, no need
OF work, and that success will come
as it came ir 1878. Nothing could
be more del or destructive. Apa
thy now is f,.,al and supinencss will
only pave the way to defeat.
There is contest before us not
only for the Electoral, but for the
State ticket. We feel authorized,
from the information we have, to say
to YOU that the Republicans party
will present an unbrotcn front on
election day i'll support of the Grccn-
back ticket, and coalescing with that
small faction of the people, will strive
under their banners to win Il Rcpuh-
lican victory. The Instructions have
been already given, the orders iSsu-
cd, the combination of forces arranr
cd, and the bargain struck, which
unitcs the Grccnback party with the
Republican for the dcreat through

Hog Disease.
Farmers Review.

Farmers Review.
For the last three years, thousands
of hogs have died throughout the West
with disease some dummy has con-
cluded to call cholera. 1t is no more
like cholera than the itch is like the
small pox.
The disease commences in the upper
end of the wind pipe, which causes u
slight cough; as it works down the
cough becomes worse; often water run
ming from the eyes. When the disease
gets upon the lungs the hog dies, al
though many have it slightly that get
we'll. In measure l think it is con
tagious. Where one or two in a drove
of hogs have it and die, more are apt
to contract it. You may say it is sim
liar to the scarlet fever in the human
family. If one child in family OF
half dozen children has the fever, it
is seldom all the Others escape.
When a farmer has a drove of hogs,
and he sees one that has the appearance
of having the disease, the best way is
to shoot him and bury him out OF
sight.
Some farmers say the feeding of coal,
sulphur, salt, and ashes, viii prevent
the disease. Such doctrine is all bosh,
three years ago 1 had forty hogs; they
had an orchard of twelve acres to run
in, plenty of water, and nearly as much
corn as they would eat They were
taken with the disease; I gave the diff.
ferent kinds of medicines recommend
ed, all to no purpose. then tried tar
with their food. 1t vomited them.

ten minutes! / kept on experiment

them as fast as they died Except those

farmer that viii permit hogs that have
died with disease to remain above
ground for days, is deserving Of punish

When to Kill Your Timber.


A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Enquirer writes; The question has of
ten been asked, "NVhen is the best time
to kill timber by deadening, and when
to cut timber so that sprouts will not
come up at the stumps?" l Will tell
my plan: Ialways deaden timber that
/ want to kill, both root and branch,
(and when l wish it to rot quickly
the latter part of May or the fore part
of June. And if / can catch the sea-
son to suit me, 1 will deaden from one
to four days after a heavy rain. Tim
Der is somewhat like corn crop. If
it has been dry and we have a good
shower, corn grows very fast. 1t is the
same with timber; only it takes more
rain to have the same effect.
The last of June and the first Of July
is a good time also, when the second
growth takes place, You can tell
when this growth takes place by motto
ing the young shoots that shoot out
on the fruit-trees in your yard or or
chard. Cherry trees show it very
plain. This last period does not last {
great while; and if there is timely
rainfall it will have the same effect
My experience teaches me that yor
must deaden when the sap is as higf
as you can get it. What we mean by
high sap is this: The tree is making
Its most vigorous growth of the season

Rene dy for Poison by Ivy.

The best remedy for ivy poisoning
is said to be sweet spirits of nitre.
Battle the parts affected freely with
this fluid three or four times day,and
the next morning scarcely any trace Of
poison will be found. If the blisters
be broken, so as to allow the nitre t.
penetrate the cuticle, a single applica-
ton will be sufficient. The spirits Oh
nitre may be prepared by dissolving
one part of nitrous ether in 8 parts
ether of common alcohol.

PENNSYLVANIA FOR GRANT.

State Convention met in Harrisburg
last Wednesday. After the usual
routine business, a resolution was
adopted, by vote of 1873 yeas to
lib nays, instructing tue delegates
to the Republican National Conven-
ton, which meets in Chicago in
June next, ''to support. for the
Presidential nomination, Gen. u. S.

questions that may come before the

erty, pay no taxes, and are utterly
Indifferent as to the qualifications
of Police Jurors. This state of
things is greatly to be deplored, as
the taxing power is entrusted TO in
different and irresponsible parties.
The old time Democratic doctrine,
that any power lodged with the
voters was safe and not liable to
abuse, as they were the parties who
would suffer, can no longer hold
good. Many things have under
gone change since the innocent
days of young Democracy, aud this
has not been the leas'. In fact.
Jefferson, with all his forecast, could
not look so far in the future as to
foresee, much less predict, what was
i'll store for US, and that there would
III the course of time spring up ex-
ceptions to what he considered solid
and irrefutable axioms i'll politics.
We are unable to say how our
views may suit other portions fthe
State, but we are confident, after
due reflection in this matter, that
the Governor would rarely fail to
give satisfaction to the people, as
the Jurors would be selected on the
recommendation of prominent citi-
zens of each parish. 80 i
This is one of the most important
questions that will come before the
Legislature, and ws1trust that no
disposition ON the part of members
to pander to a supposed desire of
the masses to vote for every officer
to be. chosen, will cause them to
overlook this need of property hold
ers. Free suffrage is good thing
in its place, but like every other
blessing. may be greatly abused.
and we think justice and right en-
title men owning property to select
those who are to control and tax it.
This can only he dnne nv lpayincr
the appointment OF the Police Juries
to the Governor, who, with tie
recommendation.of the citizens OF
the different parishes, will rarely
fail to select competent and proper
agents to rule the,internal affairs of
the parish.

CONVICTION, LA:
Saturday. February =. 1880.
POLICE" !JURIEs.
assumption Pioneer.1


The present Legislature will be
called upon to make laws regulating
the Police Julies throughout the
State. 1t is needless to say that
these bodies, though insignificant
as to their powers.in comparison to
the Congress of the United States
and the different L egislatures, vet
within the sphere of their opera
lions, exercise great influence on the
fortunes of our people.
In fact, they constitute parish
legislatures, and directly affect many
of our important interests. They
have control of the taxes, in which
all property holders are interested;
of the roads and bridges, which are
closely connected with our comfort,
AMI of the levees, which protect MS
from overflow, and add to the GER
tainty OF securing our crops.
Thus it will appear that each in
habitanG has direct interest in the
composition Of the Police Jury, and
he watches their proceedings with
great interest, as he is. aware that
ON their judgment and economical
views depend the amount of tax he
will be called on to pay,
Again, being the custodians of
the parish funds, it is their duty to
see that the parish treasurer does
his duty and. keeps his accounts
with the parish with entire correct
ness. Another important duty, ard
a very onerous one, is to rightly
examine all accounts presented
against the parish, to see that no
false claims are presented, or more
claimed than the law allows.
Under these circumstances the
question presents itself as to the
manner in which these representa-
tives should be selected-by an cleo
ton or by the appointment of the
Governor? Our voting population
has undergone great and disas-
trous change, 50 far as intelligence
is concerned, since emancipation
took place. md in most of the sugar
paris es of the ta'eti'e maj II yaf

constitutes our safety. Further
more, there is no way by which the
tariff could be so adjusted as to in
jure Louisiana seriously, without
still more seriously injuring the
United States If Congress were
to remove the tariff on the low
grades of sugar and concentrate il
upon high grades, our interests
would suffer, since the. tariff on the
low grades is what forms cur chlei
protection; but in that case the gov
eminent would lose the revenue al
together, since no one would i'm
port refined sugars. The refners
would import only the low grades,
which they could then refine, and.
while the Louisiana suga-growins
interest would be destroyed, the
revenue from sugar imports woulv
also be lost. Hence, SO long as th,
government needs a revenue, w,
may be reasonably sure of protec-
tion-especially in view of the fact
that the manufacture of sugar from
sorghum cornstalks, beets. ane
other substances is being fostered
and the demand for protection Is
thus being nationalized. On the
other hand, it is not to be expected
that the duties will be concentrated
on the higher grades, for in tina;
event great injury would be inflict-
ed upon the people at large. and
great calamity belall the refining in
terests.. T. +. Il - iEJ,<1ti -:
The question as it stands is, in
deed, between the retiners and the
Louisiana may par
ticipqte. but it s.absurtl. to suppose
that anything we may say or do will
influence the result any further than
as it harnionizes with the necessi-
ties and promotes the plans of the
government. Fortunately for us,
the policy that produces the best
results for the treasury is that which
affords the most ample protection
to our sugar industry in Louisiana.
The bulk of the revenue from sugar
imports must be derived from the
low grades, and it is with these that
our products, no matter of what
grade. practically come in competi-
ton. These are the conditions that
make our real safety. Without
these we might declaim with the
of angels. yet never ac-
the faintest shadow of a
result. The North, East and West
would look upon us as lunatics if
We asked them to befriend in such
| matter for friendships sake
