NEWSPAPER MORALITY.

Very serious charges are brought
by the Evening Star, of Boston,
against the financial writer of the
Daily Advertiser of that town. 1t is
alleged that he has. taken money,
stocks and S: ook privileges in return
for notices and puffs embodied in his
department of the paper.
Whether these charges be true OF
false we have no means of knowing.
If they are false, the accused person
has the best ground for an action for
libel; if they are true, the accused
person is a scoundrel, betraying his
employer and deceiying the public.
There is only one rule in such mat
ters. Nothing that is paid for should
appear in newspaper except with
marks clearly showing that it is an
advertisement. No journals whose
opinions are worth regard will allo W
anything to be printed In its leading
columns or in its news columns on
any other terms. The advertis-
ing space is for sale, and can always
be bought by those who wish to buy
it, at fixed price regulated before
hand. The editorial space and the
news space are not for sale. and are
not to be bought at any price
whatever.-N. Y. Sun.

THE PERgHERDS-NORMAN STUD BOOK
The Oldest Draft-HOrse Record Extant.

One of the most interesting and
valuable additions to American liter
atrre that it has been our pleasure to
examine is the Percheron-N orman
Stud Book, containing history of
| Of the French draft races, also a rec
| ord of all the Percheron horses ever
ported from France to the United
States, and all pure-breds raised in
this country. And it is an interesting
fact in connection with this enterprise
to note that the first edition of Mr..
Sanders work is older than any other
Stud Book Of any breed of draft
horses either in Europe or America.
This work, which may be obtained
by addressing the publisher, J. II.
Sanders, Chicago, ILL.,, and enclosing
the price, $500, will add greatly to
the general knowledge of this already
famous race of horses, and will prove

or those who are breeding these hor-
ses. This record will prevent the ex-
tensive imposition which has been
practiced in many quarters, of selling
or offering for service as imported or
pure-bred Percherons, horses of in
feror breeding, or those that are only
grades, hundreds of which are thus
misrepresented throughout the coun-
try.
The Perchercn horse in the few
years that have elapsed since the
first importation to this country has
established reputation never equaled
by any other breed. Their fine forms,
great activity, and remarkable docil-
ity, combined with an abundance of
courage and stamina, have made
them general favorites. But their
greatest value has been fonnd in cross
ing them upon our native mares.
The remarkable uniformity, beauty
and quality of the progeny SO marked
in every case, has made them favor
ties with breeders as well as buyers
wherever they are known. The de-
mand for the pure-breds is SO great
that their importation has assumed
immense proportions.-Prairie Farm
er, Chicago.

PROSPECTS jim ALASKA.

Joseph T. Kretzinger Of Chicago
left his home in that city about five
months ago, and, after organizing a
prospecting party, made tour
through parts of Alaska and other
far distant points in the great North
west in search of gold A Chicago
paper says that Kretzinger was ac.
companied by A. P. Horton, o. r.
Young and r. Hauchka of Dead.
wood; E. J. Bronson ofSan Francis
co, and Charles Hayward, Rotchford,
Dakota. The party went directly
to Victoria, Vancouver Island, and
from there to Fort Wrangel, Alaska;
thence to the Stickeen River and up
the Stickeen to Telegraph Greek.
From this point they crossed the
trail-"ade a portage of seventy
four miles-to the Dease Lake, their
guns, supplies and tents being carried
by mules. At the Dcasa Lake they
procured boat-an open one, about
forty feet long-and in this boat
, went down the Dease River about
two hundred and ten miles, or where
the Dease empties into the DeIoir or
Laird River; and they floated down
the Laird about three hundred miles,
and to within about three hundred
miles of the Mackenzie River, and
eight hundred miles of the Arctic
Ocean. About two hundred miles
south ofthe Dease Lake was found a
region quite rich with gold dust,
samples of which Kretzinger brought
back with him, In the spring the
same parties will return to the point
from which the gold dust was
brought, and "work it" until cold
weather sets in again.-San Fran

PRESIDENTIAL APPOINTMENTS.

The Chicago Inter-Ocean says that
one of the features of President Ar
thurs policy is to encourage young
men to take an active part III politics
and he is making many appointments
with that end in view. He is select
lug old men for his cabinet advisers,
men of long experience and ripe wis
dom, but almost invariably does he
choose young men for minor offices.
When Congressman goes to
him to consult about the appoint
ment of a Postmaster, or similar
official in the smaller towns, the
President says: 81 want you to sug-
gest the name of young, active,
progressive Republican. / want to
encourage the young men, And in
this he shows wisdom. In too many
cases, under past administrations, old
and broken-down politicians have
been preferred for positions in which
young and vigorous men were need
ed. The young men of the country
will soon be It's controlling spirits,
and it is well to have some Of them
trained for official duty by actual ex
perienee.

SUBSCRIPTIONS.

At an editorial convention recently
held at Wabash Ind, Mr.. Richard
Smith of the Cincinnati Gazette deliv-
cred an address, in which he related
the following as an incident in point.
Said he:
"When the Gazette company chang
ed from credit to the cash-in-advance
system, there were $4,000 due on the
books from weekly subscribers alone,
that had been accumulating for third
of century. Of that amount not
$4,000 cents were collected. We
employed a man and furnished him
with good horse, and sent him off
on collecting tour. In six months
the horse died, the saddle and bride
we're pawned Tor keep, and She man
returned considerable balance against
the company. We sold the books for
old paper and called those credits
lost"

TAKING PRODUCE TO MARKET.

We have shown various reasons
why every farmer should have good
garden to supply his own family with
. variety Of vegetables the year round.
To those we now add the fact that
i'm many places the garden may be Q
source of profit. II the farm Is with
In q few miles Of q town or village,
especially IL q manufacturing place
where many laborers are employed,
there will always be q ready sale for
all the surplus Of the garden ut proflta-
BILE prices. In such localities an
excess beyond all probable wants of
the family should lie provided for in
sowing and planting. To get the best
returns some care must be observed In
preparing the article for market. The
market-gardeners understand how far
appearance goes In selling their produce.
and take great pains to put up every
thing in an attractive form. A farm
er in going to . village may pull up
half bushel each of beets, carrots,
or onions, and throw them into his
wagon body II he sells them at ell,
the returns will be small Let him
prepare the night before; pull the
same number of these vegetables and
take them to q shed. Wash each
kind separately in q tub of water,
cut off all roots and needless leaves,
and tie them in punches Of three,
six, or more, according to their size.
We are sure that vegetables thus
treated will bring three times as much
as the same if sold loose or unwashed.
So with what-ver else Is offered for
sale. Store boxes can be had for
little or nothing. They may be easily
cut down to hold pecks and half pecks,
and be used for peas. beans, and other
things sold by measure. Some Of
these cut in two to form trays two
Or three inches deep, may be used
for cucumbers, tomatoes, etc. A little
care i'm the use of freshly cut grass,
cabbage, rhubarb, and other large
leaves. upon which to lay or with
which to cover vegetables, will add
much to their neat appearance, and
will pay well for the trouble.
