DEMAND FOR YOUNG CATTLE
Within the last three years there has
grown up an extensive trade in calves
purchased in our Eastern States and
sent to the West to be matured and
fattened. That trade has grown in
two years to $1,500,000 More than
ST., 100000 worth of Eastern calves
passed through the Chicago stock yards
in The early part of last year, and up to
August good many more. The cause
Of this is the great losses in cattle on
the plains, winter before last, which led
to..an extraordinary demand for young
cattle in Illinois and adjacent States.
The old fields for the purchase Of these
10 Michigan, Ohio and western and
Central New York and Pennsylvania
have been so drained of their stock thst
young cattle have risen TO an almost
prohibitory price.

STORING PoTAToEs FOR WINTER
Many of our readers have a surplus of
potatoes this fall, and not being satisfi-
ed with the prices offered, desire to store
them in the best and most economical
method, and take the risk of getting Il
higher rate next spring.
If you have a dry, well ventilated
cellar of sufficient size you can scarcely
do better than to store them ihcre 1t
is an advantage however, to put them
In large shallow bins made with Stats,
nailed an inch or two apart, and raised
few inches from the floor to allow of
circulation of the air among the pota-
toes. One such bin can be set upon
another, if necessary without injury, if
few inches is lett between by means of
boards or scantlipg.
If it is necessary to store them in pits
or piles out of doors, high, dry place
should be chosen and the spot should be
scraped smooth and drained, so that no
water can get into or under the heap.
The pile should be neat cone in shape
and should be covered first with straw
and then with earth, to the depth of six
or eight inches in alternate layers.

How To DRIvE AWAY RATs.-A
writer in the Scientific American, in
treating of the question, gives simple
plan by which any one can rid his prem
ises of rats and keep the vermin away
permanently He saws. "We clear our
premises Of these detestable vermin by
making whiteN ash yellow with copper
as, and covering the rafters and stones
in the cellar with it. In every crevice
in which rat may tread we put the
crystals of copteras, and scatter the
same in the corners of the floor The
result was perfect stampede of rats
and mice. Since that time not foot
fall ct either rat or mouse has been
heard about the house, Every spring
a coat of yellow wash is given the eel
lar as a purifier, as an exterminator,
and no typhoid dysentery or fever at
lacks the family. Many persons delib-
erately attract all the rats in the neigh
borhood by leaving fruit and vegetables
uncovered in the cellar, and sometimes
even the soap grease is left open for their
regalenent. Cover up everything eat
able in the cellar, and pantry, and you
will soon have them out. These precau-
tons, joined to the service ola good cat,
will prove as good rat exterminator as
chemists can provide. We never allow
rats to be poisoned in our dwelling, they
are so liable to die between the walls and
produce much annoyance.

in the coming campaign. The name of Rev.
W. G. Haskell, of this city, prominent cler-

A. r., was mentioned among these. A Journal
reporter met Mr.. Haskell Friday evening and
asked him if the statement was correct. He
said it was not, and he had read it with great
surprise He said the report must have arisen
from an expression of personal regard for the
Governor, which he had made in converse

A Wise Suggestion.
EBoston Advertiser

lDOStOu Auf6TlSer.l
The Maine Republicans have depended too
much on public meetings, possibly, in previous
campaigns. While an enthusiastic meeting
was in progress, the Greenbackers and Demo
Gratis were working quietly. The surprising
vote in the country towns and plantations,
when the Greenback movement eliminated,
was the result of undemonstrative efforts,
meetings in schoolhouses and personal talks
The Republicans will have attractive speaking
this summer, and these crowded assemblies
will serve to stir the sensibilities But, the
careful enumeration of voters, judicious dis
tribution of documents, and painstaking at
tention to details, will characterize the man.
agement of the canvass The Republicans
will trust less to what they have done hereto
fore, and work as if this were the first of new
party. The Greenbackers at the crossroads
and in the retired districts will meet Republi-
can workers, whereas they have had the field
almost to themselves for the past few years in
some villages. If both sides carry on still
hunt, the vote will be heavy, and the surprise
may depress the Democrats and Greenbackers

Questions for the Republican Vo

7a4a ter.
All intelligent Americans who had read his
tory with their brains as well as their eyes
knew that the intense strain of the war must,
in the nature of things, be followed by re-
action.
The so-called Democrats expected great
things of this reaction in 1872, and again in
1876, and again in 1880. Thrice they have
been disappointed.
Is a fourth disappointment in store for them?
Or is their more or less patient waiting to be at
last rewarded in 1884?
That depends entirely upon the Republican
voters of the country. They have 'the say
about it. 1t rests with them to decide wheth-
or their own party shall continue to carry on
the government, or whether they are ready
and willing to turn over the opportunities and
the responsibilities of power to the so-cafied
Democracy. =.
They were all agreed in early days, when 1t
was a question whether this continent should
be dedicated to human freedom or human
slavery. They stood shoulder to shoulder In
The later days, when the question was whether
the Union was to be preserved or destroyed.
There were no 'stalwarts" and TO "haif-
breeds in those days-so momentous, so spirit
stirring so recent and yet so remote. :,
Has the time come to turn the back on all
those wonderful ano glorious years, and to
hand over the keys of the future to the party
that fought the emancipation of the slaves at
every step, and that stupidity declared the war
for the Union failure? This is the question
which every Republican voter must answer
for himself
Is he willing that the enfranchisement Of
the black citizens shall continue to be the ho-
low mockery it is to-day in South Carolina?
Is he content to see the civil rights act tram
pied insolently under foot?
Is he ready TO contide the control Of the ma
tional finances to party that. in its frantic
effort to get v.tss as preliminary to getting
the offices, has deliberately dabbled in repudi-
alton?
Under all the circumstances, is he prepared
to take the risks OF entrustng to this party the
direction of the foreign policy OF the country?
If the mass of the Republican voters-the
"plain people" as Abraham Lincoln used to
cal them-are Indifferent TO all these things,
If they have lost their interest in the unfin-
ished work of the party, the factionists who
are laboring, consciously or unconsoiously to
turn the country over to the so-called Democ-
racy will succeed in their undertaking.
But not otherwise.

He then gives a long account of his confer

that he believes that the reason which induces
the hesitation of Chill is that so long as the Pc
ruyians are convinced that the United States
will finally intervene they never will negotiate
in earnest. The position of the United States
is an embarrassment to al. of the belligerents,
and he thinks it should be terminated as
promptly as possible.

That Speech of Ladd's.

fhe complimentary notice of Representative
Ladd which we copied, by request, from the
Boston Herald, and which gave him much
credit for his part in securing the passage Of
the Geneva award bill, proves real boome-
rang, and the Doctor must wish most heartily
that his friends political would be pleased to
let him alone. The publication of that puff
has brought out the fact indisputably that Dr.
Ladd took no part in that discussion but on the
contrary was here in Maine, when the subject
was under consideration. and the vote taken.
The speech printed in the Congressional Rec
ord, puf porting to have been delivered in the
House by him was never in fact so delivered
but was printed as many speeches are under
leave of the House obtained by friend while
the Doctor was at his home in Bangor. Wheth-
er it was the influence of that undelivered
speech which caused the House to give the
award bill passage before the speech was in
fact printed, our readers must judge.
