by 'heend of the session the pay roll
VIII oe as large as in any previous
year, and the expenses of the session
VIII be just as great. In the matter
OF public printing, through which
many thousands Of dollars have year
after year gone into the buckets of
the political Bosses, the Republican
minority, together with handful of
the Democrats, made a desperate
struggle to secure a saving to the
State ofsome eighteen thousand dol
lars. But so powerful is the influence
OF the Bosses in the control of every
measure looking to the disposition
OF spolls, that as yet the contract has
not yet been awarded and the indi
cations are that it will not be, until
II IS certain it shall go into the hands
OF Inc Bosses themselves. Then came
the election of State Treasurer,
wheh an opportunity was afforded
the legislature to break the power
OF Inc Canal Ring, but through a
corrupt bargain with the great re-
former, Mayor Whyte, the Ring sue
ceeded in re-electing their chosen
servant, and the people were set at
dehanee by the barter and sale of the
politicians. Now we hear upon all
sidesi the clamor of the Democratic
press for the immediate passage of
the Registration law, which the man
ayers have decided shall be passed
and denominations against the Re
publican minority because of the de.
feat OF similar, but more infamous
law two yearsago But this Regis
tration Bill does not mean any re-
form. althoughit is so heralded to
the people. It is. full of pitfalls and
snares and opportunities for fraud,
which render it injurious and ohjec-
tionable. 1t is not aeu Registration
law for which the people have plead
ed so long, but Good and fair law,
which the one now proposed is not.
The Efforts which are being made
ty the Republicans to secure such
amendments as will make il conform
to the wants of the public, are char
acterized Ivy he Democratic press as
attempts to defeat reform Legislation
by filihu>tering and delay, and the
party lines seem to be strictly drawn,
upon every question which INVOLVES
an issue of interest between the poll
ticians and the people. Thus will
the remainder of the session bespent,
and when the first of April arrives
we shall look in vain to find some
good thing which has been done in
the interest of the general public, by
the statesmen at Annapolis.
The Democratic craft is sailing I'M
der false coIors, and its crew is com.
posed of pirates rather than patriots.

The Democratic leaders and Demo-
cratic members of the legislature of
all shades have agreed to pass the
Registration bill, and until it is
passed tranquility is to reign in the
camp. The passage of The bill is now
assured, for the Democrats haye de.
termined to rush it through at all
hazards. The bill is by no means
what it should he, and il would be
better if the Republicans and indie
pendent Democrats could unite and
pass a fairer bill. But this is impOs-
sible. There are some good things,
however, that the bill will accOmp-
lish. 1t will give rs new registrar
ton this year. Inasmuch as the
Congressional elections take place
next fall, the new registration will
have to he conducted under United
States supervisors. At each of the
sixty places If registration super
visurs appointed by the United States
courts will he stationed, and see that
no registration frauds are committed.
Governor Hamilton has stated that
he proposes to appoint only first.cllss
men as registers, and if this is done,
something as least will have been
gained The GoVprnOr's friends ara
now collecting names to he presented
to the Governor for registration Off
GERS, and he will select from the lists
the names of those whom he con-
siders best fitted for the purpose

False Pretences.

The Democratic majority in the
present Legislature. are striving hard
to mislead the people of the State,
into the belief that it is their iuten-
ton to institute at the present session,
some of the many long-promised re-
forms. only few weeks ago the
atmosphere Of the State Capital was
filled with the promises of great and
needed reforms, and economies in the
conduct of governmental affairs. The
leaders of the managers party We'd
with the o. d. DIS in procIaiming
to the people what tremendous sacri-
fees was to be made by the politi-
clans, who feast upon the loaves and
fishes of public plumber, In favor of
the overwhelmed tax payer and the
dear people, in whom they take such
an abiding interest. The organiZa.
ZION of the two Houses witnessed the
overthrow of several of the most OBJ
iectionable officials, whose political
records and past party services had
rendered them too heavy a load for
the managers TO continue to carry.
This was followed with great -four
ish of trumpets, by the announce.
ment that the number of the officers
and employees of the two Houses was
to be very greatly reduced. and the
committee on organization, in their
report, did actually recommend
much smaller number of officers than
was employed at the last session.
But here reform ended. Every
few days new appointments are
made, Of officers Of the two Houses,
and new names are added to the pay
rolls, swelling the costs and expenses
OF the session, for the purpose of pro-
viding n place for some ienchmen,
for whose services the managers can
compensate them in no other way.

also read an article which may
lead some of my brother farmers e.
tray, with regard to pruning lruit
trees in the winter. My theory is
never to cut a limb till the sap is
flowing freely, then the sap will flow
to the wound and keep it moist to
the end of the stub, and it will heal
oyer in half the time of that cut in
the winter or carly spring, fol in the
latter case the wood ana bark will
dry from to / of an inch from the
end. and the March and April sun
and winds will crack the wood and
let the water in, and if it even does
heal over it will make a damaged
place i'm the tree. From fifty years
experience and experimenting l
think / know what / am writing
about. In order to test the matter
let any one cut off limb now and
an1thr the same size when the tree
is in bloom, and that will satisfy him
as it did me.
We are having the warmest and
weltest winter ever known here, and
the roads are almost impossible. We
only have one mud hole between
here and Macarthur, 8 miles. Wheat
never looked better this season of the
