APPLES AND PEACHES.


The fruit prospects of this valley seem to
be good. so far as we have been able to
learn, except that of the peaches. Peaches
were badly killed by the unusually severe
and sudden changes of the winter. Apples,
pears, cherries, aprieots. neetarines, piums
and the smaller garden fruit trees. shrubs
and vines seem uninjured. The grape
vines, OF all varieties. were not hurt In the
least and the usual heavy bearing may be
expected. This valley is the natural cline
for all kinds Of hardy grapes, and tons of
that delicious fruit will be shipped from
this county, the coming summer.

The farmers have been so busy with their
spring work that wheat comes to market
slowly, making the time hang heavy on the
hands Of the wheat buyers and elevator

An Ideal Community.

An interviewer asked Colonel Inger-
soil the other day: "Colonel, what is
your opinion of the prohibition ques-
tion?" and to this was made the follow
ing characteristic reply.
"I can give my opinion by telling you
this story. A strong prohibitionist was
discussing this question with gentle
man who had not much confidence in
making people virtuous by law. The
prohibitions said:
Glow would you like to live in COM
munity where nobody drank any intoxi-
eating iquors-where everybody was
perfectly sober?"
Il would be delighted with such a
community" said the prohibitionist.
"And how would you like to live where
every one was industrious where they
rose early and went to their work AMI
retired in season-where everybody was
at home in the evening, and where no
one used profane language?"
"Oh, that would be perfectly splendid"
said the prohibitionist.
"And," continued the questioner, chow
would you like to live in community
where everybody attended divine service
every Sabbath"
"Why," said the prohibitionist, "such
a community would make almost a
heaven; but there is no such commu-
nifty"
90, yes~ said the anti-prohibitionist,
II know several such communities"
"Where can I find one?" said the tenn
perance gentleman.
And the other replied: "1n any well
regulated penitentiary."

Protection.

No industries except those controlled
by rich and powerful combinations OF
capital think of calling On congress for
legal protection.
Individual enterprise must be self
sustaining, or fall. The farmer takes
for his produce what the market offers.
The wagesaof labor are fixed by the en-
ployers. But capital commands protec-
ton and gets it. The iron manufactur-
ers are protected, but the consumers OF
iron foot the bill. The great quinine en-
terprise is protected at the expense OF
the sick. The wooden and cotton manu-
facturers are protected, but the protec-
ton comes out of the earnings
of the wage-workers, the SER
want girls and the unprotected gener-
ally.
The sugar refining millionaires are
protected by a 40 per cent tariff, which
is paid by 40 per cent tax on every
pound of sugar consumed.
And still the millions of unprotected,
tax-ridden voters send monopoly tools
to congress, and wonder why wages are
low and times are hard Express.

Wages.

1t is true that since the opening of the
civil war, the number of Federal officers
has been increased by 20 per cent, whilst
Official salaries, local and national, have
been increased by not less than 80 per
cent Meanwhile the wages of the
average werkingman has been brought
down to at least 25 per cent below what
they were at the close of the rebellion.
The farmer, too, has suffered. o. '

The N ecessity
FOR THE SPECIALIST.
DR.. Fl. w WAGNER

Has long been acknowledged, and more so
at this day than amy other. The vast field of
medical science is ever increasing, and its nu-
merous branches are brought nearer and
nearer to perfection, and no one man can any
longer grasp them all. Hence the necessity
for dividing the labor. And it, is true beyond
all doubt that diseases affecting the genito-
urinary organs need special study more than
anything else, If we would understand and
know how to treat them properly.
DIR. III. Wagner is fully aware that there
are many physicians, and some sensible peo-
pie, who will condemn him for making this
class of diseases a specially, but he is happy
to know that with most persons Of refine
ment and intelligence, a more enlightened
view is being taken of the subject, and that
the physician who devoteS himself to reliey-
ing the afflicted, and saving them from worse
than death, is no less q philanthropist and a
benefactor to his race than the surgeon or
physician who by close application eXcels in
any other branch of his profession. And, for
tunately for humanity, the day is hawning
when the false philanthropy that condemned
the victims of folly or crime, like the lepers
under the Jewish law, to die uncared for, has

The recent decision of the su-
preme court affords an excellent
opportunity for the democrats to
take all the wind out of the re.
publican sails and to vindicate
their claims to be considered the
only true friend of the colored
race. All the legislatures of the
southern states and about half OF
those in the northern states now
have democratic majorities. All
that these legislatures have to do
now in order to get away ahead
of the republicans is to pass state
civil rights bills aid give the col
ored people by constitutional
laws what the republicans under
took to give them by an uncon-
stitutional law. If they will only
do it they will revolutionize the
colored vote.-[ Louisville Com

interest Of the colored people,
as it is better that the bills be
defined by the present judges
than to be left to a subsequent
bench, who may decide that they
are unconstitutional and abso-
lutely void which would throw US
back where we were twenty
three years ago: A Apolitical rev.
olution is iminent, and we should
be prepared to make our interest
paramount to any other par
ty Or sect and we think our
leading mon will see it in tina t
light, just a. soon as they allow
their excited parsions to be cooled
down.
1t should be remembered that
at the National Convention at
Louisville we pronounced the
civil rights amendments O dead

has only concured. So let us be

THE COLORED CONVENTION
AND THK IRISH,

There is a feature connected
with the late colored national
convention that has considerable
signiticance:-The eighth declar-
alton of the convention expresses
sympathy with the struggles of
the Irish in Ireland; which is an
exhibit at least of sagacity, that
will tend to bring closer in har-
mony, accord, and effort, two
classes in the United States
which when united will be a
power that will be irresistible for
the right. Both of these classes
are struggling to command con-
sideration. 1t is gratifying to
notice the exhibition of this lib
erality on the part of the colored
people, for certainly they have
been the subjects of persecution
at the hands of those towards
whom they have magnanimously
extended the olive branch of
peace and good feeling. Our
fellow townsman, Mr.. George Il.
Downing, has for some time ia

The Arkansas railroad bond
cases, lately decided by Justice
Miller. sitting as circuit judge,
has created considerable stir in
Arkansas. These bonds we're
known as state aid bonds, issued
by Arkansas to aid in the con-
struction of the railroads. The
act under which they we're emit
ted was declared unconstitutiona
by the supreme court, and the
question was rs to the liabili-
ty OF the railroads, which had is
sued the bonds and sold them on
the markets in some instancesfor
85 cents on the dollar. Justice
Miller decided that the railway
had not indorsed the
bonds, and therefore could not be
held. This throws the issue back
to the state.-Hot Springs Sen
