ANOTHER BLACK EYE ron TIE LEGISLA-
TEKE


Governor Cleveland gave the last Legisla-
ture terrible black eye when he vetoed one
half of the jobladen Supply bill. Now it
gets another at the hands of the Democratic
State Committee.
That committee in issuing the call for the
State Convention is silent as the grave con-
corning the Legislature, but Is not SD silent
about the Governor. 1t invites all who be-
" licve that 81 Democratic State Administration
"of Governor Cleveland ustifes the expression
= of confidence which attended his election" TO
send delegates to the Convention. But not
a word about the Legislature! Nobody who
believes that the course Of that body "justi-
fios the expression Of confidence which at
"tended its election" is invited to send
delegates. Oh, MOI Surely this is the cut
direct for the Democratic Senate and Assembly.
And what makes the cut deeper and broader
than it would otherwise tc is the fact that
q Governor is not to be elected this fall, while
Legislature is tn he.
What is the eI panation7 Well, it may have
occurred to the State Committee that the less
said about the Legislature tho better, since
it had not justified any expression of con-
fidence" that may have attended its election.
Or perhaps the OMISSION to say handsome
word for the Legislature in the call for the
Convention was uniDteniiOna. Maybe it was a
Typographical error. AT all events, 1t may 10
said right here that the attempt TO vindcate
the last Legislature 10y keeping quiet about it
and insisting that Cleveland is making "a good
Governor will not go down with sensible
people.
The Democratic Legislature mast go.

The false allegat ion, in a semi-Ofiicial Ger
man newspaper, that France is threatening
the peace of Europe, appears to have aroused
more wrath in London than in Paris. II
Bismarck inspired the attack he must be
satisfied with the result. 1t is now announced
that the French Army will not be modified.
Perhaps, If that statement had been made
sooner. there would have been no menace

The resignation of Controller Campbell
appears to have satisfied the desire of certain
politicians to know all about the frauds in
the Finance Department. The demand for
full and complete investigation has ceased,
though for long time it was repeated almost
daily. There is just as much reason for such
an inquiry now as before. The Commissioners
of Accounts promised report on the subject
weeks ago. but it is not yet forthcoming And
when it does appear it will not command entire
confidence, as was pointed out by the Grand
Jury in the presentment it made yesterday. The
recommendation made in the same document in
regard to the effacement of the engraved stones
and plates from which bonds have been printed,
deserves the careful consideration of the city
authorities

It's authority though received direct from the
last State Convention. Mr.. Kelly treated the
Committee in the same contemptuous manner

distant only a few steps, by sending Mr..
Grady as his representative. AT the same
time these recacitrant Democrats express the
utmost confidence in the belief that there will
be harmony in the State Convention. One
way that 1t Is to be brought about is In the
deposition of Boss Manning With the lamb

that Mr.. Kelly will be the Democratic lion at

Window Plants,

American Agrlculturlst.
Animals may be used for the decoration of
the greenhouse and window gardens, and are
especially useful for cutting. The first SOW
ing may be made now, and later at intervals
of q month. Sweet Alyssum, Candytuft
(white and crimson) and Mignonette are
among the most popular and useful.
A number of hardy plants force very read
lily and bloom freely in winter. The Bleed
ing Heart (Dicentra spectabilis) forces easily;
Astilbe Japonica, often incorrectly called
Spirea, will give an abundance of its pure
white p~anicles. We have forced these most
successfully in the window. Deutzia gra-
ellis is a capital small shrub to force, as
is Spirea Thunbergii. All plants for fore
ing should be taken up early, potted, and
placed in a frame or a cool cellar until jan
uary, when they may be given heat and
light. Bulbs for forcing should be potted
as early as possible, in a rich soil made open
by adding plenty of sand. Ifthe pots can
not be placed in a cool cellar, or a frame, set
them under the shelter of a fence, covering
them with coal ashes. Climbing vines add
much to the attractiveness of a window gar
den; among the best is the European ivy.
Among ANIMALS, T~rop@olum are useful,
both the gay-colored sorts and the quaint
canary-bird flower (Trop@olnm peregrinum.)
Seeds of these should be sown at once.

morning with a paper by DR.. A. K. Alden,
home secretary, on Our annual financial
problem" This was followed by a re-
port of great length from the special

port from a sub-committee consisting of Prof.
Chaplin, of Beloit College and Prof. Mead,
OF Andover Seminary. The Reading of
both reports continued, with the Interrupt

THE UNIVERsAILSTS.
Meeting of the New York State Convention
A Discouraging Report.

A Discourasing Report.
BUFFALO, Oct. 3.-The New York State
convention of Universalists resumed to-day.
Charles Chanerly spoke in behalf of the
Universalist publishing house at Boston.
FYaternal greetings were extended to the
convention now in session in New Hamp-
shire. Rev. J. Gates read a report on the
state of the Uniyersalist Church in
New York. From an examination of the
registers of the past ten years, he found that
there had been in the United States and CAN
ada a loss to the church of fifteen parishes
and 1904 families. In ten years there has
been, in the United States and Canada, an in
crease of 10, 249 church members. The report
deplored the scarcity of young men as canGi-
dates for the ministry. With 800, 900 added
to its funds the college of letters and science
of st. Lawrence University could be made
one of the greatest glories of the church. A
resolution was adopted that the New York
State convention instruct it's delegates
to the general convention to request
that body to cause to be prepared
and published under its super
vision and subject to its approval
a hymnal, and also a book of worship for the
use of the Universalist denomination. The
reason given for offering the resolution was
that the denomination had no uniform
book of worship, and there was no uniform
hymnal generally acceptable to the PEG pie.

If an egg is taken between the thumb and
forefinger of the left hand, and held against

deficiencies that exist within the shell. If
there are any dark or discolored spots they
may be very readily detected. 1t is also an
unerring way of telling fresh from stale
eggs. The inexperienced may find some
difficulty at first, which will be overcome by
practice. The search should be continued

The Importance OF Fewer Acres.

Pacific Rural Spirit.
If ten acres of land cost 800, and if they
produce $40 worth of crops they are paying
10 per cent interest on the investment, just
as much as if 800 had been loand at the
rate of 10 per cent. interest. Now, there is
no man who would think of living on the
interest of 800 loaned at even this high rate,
but instances are not rare of men making a
good living for themselves and their families
from the careful cultivation of ten acres of
land. We mention this fact to prove that
the too frequent expression that farming
does not pay" is not in accordance with the
fact. There is no other business in which
a man would attempt, with 500
to support a family. Yet still there is
truth in the remark, so far as 1T IS
applicable to farming as it is carried on in
some sections of the country. Ii a man in
vests 81, 900 in 100 acres of LANG and makes
only ten of them, or 500 worth, available,
he cannot expect to derive q profit from the
other ninety acres any more than he could
expect an interest upon $1,000 when he had
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1883-10-04

only $40 of it invested. Our position is that
land actually cultivated pays better interest
on the money invested than any other ven
ture. The farmer annot expect idle acres
to yield him a revenue any more than he can
idle dollars. Unfortunately, the farmer of
the Northwest has, as a general thing, nine
acres of idle land where he has one produc-
tive one, and the one productive acre is ex-
pected to pay the interest on the price of the
whole ten. Extraordinary management
would be necessary to make this kind of
farming pay.
