i noticed by last weeks PHOENIX that hay
ing had commenced on the river farms Here
on the hills grass is very backward and looks
as though we should not have more than two
thirds the usual crop. Our farmers will not
begin to hay much IL any before the middle
of July. Corn looks as though il had had a
run of typhoid fever. Potatoes look triAe
better, but we are having a serious time with
the bugs, it seems as though they we're more
plenty than ever. No slugs are matched yet
but there are plenty of eggs on the plants.
We have no telephone here, but We got
cannon reports of Guiteau's execution at
o'clock Friday afternoon.

Last weeks prohibition victory in Iowa will
be followed by an early vote on the question
in Wisconsin, Indiana and Michigan. Indiana
is the next objective point Of the temperance
people. The Republicans favor submitting
the question of constitutional prohibition to
the people, but the Democrats are not willing
to trust it to them, and are trying to devise
means to smother the issue without bringing
il to a test

The bill which proposes to refer to board
of audit the bills for medical attendance on
President Garfield was under discussion in
the senate on Monday, when Mr. Vest OF
Missouri took occasion to assail the dead pres
idenPs physicians and their treatment of his
case, DR.. Bliss being the special object of his
attack. His remarks were in the worst pos
sible taste. The board of audit is device to
avoid public discussion of these claims and at
the same time have them properly adjusted,
but they seem likely, after all, to furnish the
basis for an unseemly wrangle before they are
settled.

The American (anti- Masonic) party have
nominated Rev. Jonathan Blanchard of Illi-
nois and John A. Conant of Connecticut for
President and Vice President in 1884. 1t will
be remembered that the honor of furnishing
the head of the party's ticket came to Brat
tleboro in the campaign of 1880. In the
election of that year the party polled 7O7
votes in the whole country.

1t is to be hoped that with the accounts Of
the hanging published in this weeks weekly
papers Guiteau and all his family will be al
lowed to subside into the oblivion for which
they are alone fitted, and we trust something
may happen to dissuade or prevent the Rev.
DIR. Hicks, whose head seems to have been
turned by his sudden notoriety, from pub
fishing his proposed book to be made up from
the assassin's sayings and doings. Ill-ar-
ranged and vicious Guiteau undoubtedly was
from his birth, and every wrong tendency
had been givon unrestrained play until his
moral nature was nothing other than a mass
of rottenness, but that he ever passed the
point of proper self-control or individual re-
sponsibility the great mass of intelligent
American people have never believed More
over, whatever view may be entertained of
his mental condition, the fact cannot be dis
puted that the next vicious, unstrung, or half
crazed man who may be tempted to take the
life of President will be good deal less
likely to do 80 because Guiteau has suffered
the full penalty of the law for his crime.

The political status in Pennsylvania re.
mains unchanged. The Democrats have nom
mated a strong ticket and it is evident that
unless the Republicans harmonic their differ.
ences the opposition will carry the day. Pre-
dictions are freely made that election day will
see only one Republican ticket in the field
Most of the Independents, it is said, would be
satisfied with new convention, Don Came

ty committees being chosen under the new

The trial of Walter and James Maley and
Blanche Douglass for the murder of Jennie
Cramer ended last Friday in verdict of ac-
quittal, and all three of the prisoners walked
out of the courthouse free. There was no
evidence to warrant conviction, and people
who carefully followed the course of the trial
found good reason to doubt whether either of
the prisoners gave poison to the dead girl or
threw her of the wharf But that the accus-
ed are morally guilty of Jennie Oramer's death
there is not the least doubt. Everything in
dictates that plot was laid for her ruin, and
that this plot worked only too surely. Well
does the Hartford CourAnt say; mo jury's
verdict can wipe out the stain which is on
their hands"

Tax-dodgers have Jared hard in some of the
county conventions this year. In the Orange
county convention s. F. Frary was nominated
for senator; but it came out that LIE had re-
fused to make out his inventory, whereupon
the convention rejected him and nominated
W. Fl. Gilmore in his place. In the Windsor
county convention Crosby Miller, a time
honored holder of the office of assistant judge,
was refused a denomination for like reason.

The showing of the postoffice department
for the fiscal year just ended is very credit
able and hopeful one. For the first time in
thirty years, with the exception OF one year
during the war; the service has been self. sus-
tanning. OF the $4,000, 900 appropriated by
the last Congress for estimated deficiencies,
not dollar has been drawn from the treas
ury. The credit of this showing is largely due
oPostmaster- General James, for putting stop
tothe star route and steamboat extravAgances
and stealings, and instituting better business
methods in all the bureaus. The time would
seem to be an suspicious one for making the
experiment of two-cent letter postage, but
the present postmaster general is opposed to
such scheme and it probably wont be tried.
Should it be tried and deficiency result, it is
to be said for it that the expenditure would
be one in whose benefits all the people would
share.

England is busily making military prepara-
tons for the discipline of Arab Pasha, and
an armed collision in Europe is apparently
close at hand. Troops are being modified,
munitions collected, and ships of war put in
commission. Meanwhile large part of the
European population of Alexandria has taken
flight, and will be out of harms way if that
city is bombarded. Arab Pasha is menacng
the Suez canal, and may do much mischief
before the power of England can reach him.
But the indications now are that his power
will be short-lived. England will act as the
agent of Europe, and perhaps with the active
cooperation of France, and she will act efToc-
lively; but after Arab Pasha is disposed of
there will remain the more difficult question
as to what disposition shall be made of Egypt

while the others did the cutting, and now
sauers and Hartigan complain that Lamb has

ranging all tho way from $4,000 TO $780, 600.
