THE Utah commissioners suggest

THE Utah commissioners suggest
heroic treatment for polygamy. 1t
is the same sort of treatment that was
adopted by the Republican party for
the District of Columbia, that
negro suffrage might be dispensed
with. 1t is observed, that the
twin evils of slavery and poIygamy,
which the Republican party set out to
abolish twenty-seven years ago, have
furnished two problems which it can
not solve. Popular government in
the District of Columbia was abolish
ed solely for the purpose of getting rid
of negro voting, and now it IS propos-
ed to abolish popular government in
Utah to get rid of polygamy, which
the Republicans confess cannot be got
rid of by any other means. 1t is any
thing but encouraging to the right of
selfgovernment to find that all the
suggested remedies for polygamy in
Utah involve the suspension or aboli-
ton of self-government. This makes
two cases in the history of this country,
in which deliberate violation of the
principle it is founded upon has been
resorted to. The Mormon question is
very serious one, but that such treat
ment is asked for is but another proof
of the inability of the Republican
party to deal with serious social and
governmental questions.

STORING Sweet Pota toes.

Correspondence Farm and Garden.
The most common and most sue
cesSful way of storing away sweet
potatoes for winter keeping in this
latitude is to put up in dust. There
are other modes which have their adj
yocates. In the summer, when the
dust is very dry, l take as many bar
relS or boxes as l shall want to fill
with potatoes and fill them with road
dust and put them away in dry
place to keep until 1 dig my potatoes.
1 prefer digging before frost. 1 dig
then and let them dry in the sun a
day; then they are stored away in a
cool place; they are spread singly over
the floor 50 as not to heat or sweat;
when cold weather sets in they are
taken and stored in the cellar; cover
the bottom of the barrel or box with
about three inches of dust, then lay
er of potatoes as close as they can be
not to touch; cover them with dust,
then potatoes, and SO on until the bar
rel or box is nearly full: then fill up
with dust. In this way potatoes will
keep through most any winter. An
other way I have tried with very
good success is to pile the potatoes in
large cone-shaped pile. Thirty to
forty bushels keep better than less.
Then take straw in small handfuls
and pack around, commencing at the
bottom, building it firm, eight or ten
inches thick, until near the top, then
insert flue near the top and build
tight around the flue. In few days
the potatoes will begin to sweat and
emit steam; after they go through
the heat and cold weather sets in this
fue can be stopped with straw. Now
this straw is covered with dirt thick
enough to suit the weather. / have
very good success with potatoes stor-
ed in this way. but prefer putting up
In dust. When put up with straw I
put up in the garden, putting a shell
ter over them.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1883-11-15

THE Irishmen of Chicago passed
resolutions, asking the state depart
ment at Washington to see that the
American minister in England use
his influence to the end that O'Don-
nell receive an impartial trial, and
that he be allowed to have the defense
of an American lawyer. Secretary
Frelinghuysen, in reply, says:
I'm the event of its being ascer-
tanned that Patrick O'Donnell is an
American citizen, he will receive from
this government all the protection to
which he is entitled, in harmony with
the resolutions you inclose. 1t is not
within the province of this depart
ment to- ask a modification of the
ruling of the court in a particular
case."
He adds that if the English court
should need an assurance of the high
standing Of the counsel from this
country, the American Minister will
be instructed to give an assn rance of
their standing.
