THR New York Sun contains a
lengthy statement purporting to come
from Dorsey, the guilty but acquitted
Star Route thief, which shows up the
great and good Garfield in very bad
light. Since his death even little
children have been taught to believe
that purer or better man never lived
than "the martyr President" and his
virtues have been extolled by a thou
sand orators and good many more
newspaper men. But according TO
Dorsey, and he seems borne out by
the facts, he not only knew about the
Star-Route thefts but agreed to defend
them, and promised immunity from
trial if the benefciaries would put up
a sufficient amount Of their i'll gotten
gains to carry the State of Indiana.
He reiterates the story that Stanley
Matthews was given the appointment
of Supreme Judge by Garfield ON a
written agreement with Jay Gould
that he was to contribute $3.50, 900 to
the corruption fund of the republican
party. Wall Street was bought by
allowing its brokers to name the Sec.
rotary of the Treasury, and COnkling
and his New York Stalwarts placated
by promises of patronage that we're
never kept. The whole recital shows
to have been a weak, vacilla-
ting man, so anxious to be elected
president that honor, independence
and virtue were lost sight of. Poor
man, he is sleeping the sleep that knows
no waking, and filling an untimely
grave through the fundamentally of
Guiteau and his pistol, consequently
he can not answer these charges and
here are those who think that for
that reason they ought not to be made,
but if he was the manner of man that
Dorsey claims, it is high time it was
shown that the cherished idol was clay
Of the most inferior sort.

The following editorial from the
Frankfort YeOman so nearly express
es our views ON the pistol question
that we publish it with our full en-.
dorsement:
We have heretofore mentioned the
fact that State law which inflicts
fines and imprisonment for carrying
concealed weapons, and especially the
Kentucky law known as the Turner
law, is a measure clearly to the disad
vantage of the good citizen. The
rough, bully and BLACKBOARD who has
no money to pay fine and no char.
acter to lose by imprisonment-whO
is more frequently better of in Jail
than he is out of it-can carry a pis-
tol with IMMUNITY, and can threaten
and impose upon weaker and better
man every hour in the day. The
knowledge that decent and orderly
people are at the mercy of such
wretches forces a good many citizens
who have every disposition to obey
the laws to carry weapons in self.de
tense. The law practically does not
defend them, and they are compelled
oftentines to defend themselves.
1t has sometimes occurred to us
that better plan would be to abolish
all laws against carrying concealed
weapons, and give more attention to
the enforcement of penalties for using
them unlawfuIly. If it was general
ly understood that every man was
armed and able to defend himself, it
might have the effect to put an end to
homicide, or bring us back to decency
and order. The Legislature of Ken
lucky at its coming session will have
this matter under consideration in
some shape. and we hope it will be
able to fix upon some means more ef-
fective than the Turner law TO put
an end to the promiscuOus use of the
pistol"

all that.

HOW Il F4SHION SHIFTED.

The Austrian Empress, while on q
little country excursion with her usual
retinue, stopped at an inn for refresh
ments. Being heated, she took off her
bonnet and hung it on the back of a
chair, where playful puppy made such
mischief with it before anybody's atten-
ton was attracted as to render it unfit
for further wear. Of course, every lady
in the party offered her own hat in the
place of the one that was damaged, but
the Empress took the whim to finish the
excursion without any other head cov-
ering than that supplied by nature Be-
ing observed in this fashion by some Ia
dies of the stylish world, who are eager
to initiate anything that royalty does,
the practice of appearing in public
without hat or bonnet came into gener-
al vogue. The morning promenade be-
came marked by the presence of numer-
Gus elegantly arranged heads of hair
devoid of any covering, and on Sunday
the same fashion was followed in church.
To such an extent was this becoming
the rage, says the Vienna Tageblat,
that milliners grew alarmed, and clam.
ored at court about it, whereupon this
explanation of the cause of the En-.
press hatless excursion was issued from
official sources and published to the So
cial world. This put an end to the new
fashion, milliners were happy once more
and fashionable circles were again at
peace.

TEL md COFFEE rs Rrr.4rs.rc5'

Tea and coffee are natural allies, ,us
they are also natural rivals. As against
alcoholic drinking in any form they are
combined. It is over the unoccupied
territory, after alcohol has been driven
away, that the contention between the
two comes. Taking the world through,
the general verdict seem to be in favor
OF tea. Two Of the largest empires in
the world-China and Russia-ace tea
drinkers. In Bokhara and Samarcand,
and IN most parts Of Central Asia, the
tea-urn is forever steaming. On the
other hand the Arab and the Turk, and
with them the whole western part of the
Mohammedan world, are cofee-drink-
ers. The decision of Europe is not alb
solute for either side. It seems to be
very much determined by what we may
call the accidents Of the case. The ma
tons which can get good tea drink tea.
Those which can get both drink both.
England claims to be one of these, but
the preference of England is beyond all
doubt for tea and not for coffee. The
unfair choice is very largely compen-
stated for in the United States the
chief coffee-consuming country in the
world. Englishmen, too, would prob
ably make more use of coffee than they
do if they could once be induced to
overcome the initial difficulties of hay
ing it prepared as it ought to be. Tea
can be made easily enough. It may be
strong OF weak according to fancy. It
is tea in either case. The right plan,
we are assured, is to put plenty of tea
into the pot, then to add little more
tea; and, this done, to leave it to chance
whether the liquid comes out strong or
weak. But, whatever we may think of
weak tea, there is no good word to be
said of weak coffee. Coffee must be verv
strong if it is to deserve the name Of
coffee at all. 1t is a generous drink
and it is for generous natures. The lit
tie arts which the frugal housekeeper
uses in making tea are not to be
thought of in making coffee. There
must be no economy in the amount used,
10 filing up Of the pot; no making the
same material serve twice over. That
tea should ever be made like this is bad
enough, but there may be tastes so de-
PRAYED as to put up with it and to see
nothing to object to about it. The man
has yet to be found who can even make
pretense Of liking weak coffee, diluted
into ten times its proper volume and as
deficient in fragrance as in strength

Crop Reports

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Jnly 12.-Leading
commission men are daily receiving re-
ports on the condition of the crops. The
latest from Wisconsin on the spring wheat
condition: Of eighty-two points thirty
one report a prospective yield of
from fifteen to twenty bushels per acre,
twenty-five report more than an average
yield, and eleven say the prospect is fair
to good and fifteen report more or less
damage from storms and rust, but no dam
age from heat or drouth. Wheat is gen
orally just heading out.
Iowa returns have been received from
ninety-three points, forty-nine of which
report prospective yield of from fifteen
to twenty bushels per acre, twenty seven
say there will be more than an average
yield and seven put the outlook as fair to
good and no damage from any cause
Wheat is generally in the milk.
Minnesota reports on corn only in
twenty eight points in the southern half of
the state, of which sixteen give pros
pective yield of twelve to twenty bushels
per acre. Three report more than an av-
erage yield and nine the prospects from
fair to good.
Dakota reports are meagre, coming
from the southern and central parts,
which are highly favorable. North and
west of Fargo serious injury has been sus-
tanned from drought, reducing the hoped
for yield by twenty-five to fifty per cent.
Section comprises one-third of the whole
producing area of the territory.
