The First Gun in the Democratic
CamDai%n.

Mississippi Democracy is already up
and about with its coat off and its ears
pinned back. 1t realizes that this is a
Presidential year and that the party ex-
poets all hands to do their duty. And
so, taking time by the fore!ock, without
waiting for the National Convention to
name a ticket, it fires the first gun of
the Democratic campaign. jefferson
Davis presided at the gun, and the re
verations of its music awakened the
greatest enthusiasm. Put down Yazoo
county for one of its old fashioned ma
jorities.
The gun uttered the old familiar sound
that sound SO dear to the heart of
every true Mississippi Democrat who
has been identified with the Mississippi
plan of conserving the right of suffrage.
Pardon" said Mr.. Davis, "comes after
repentance. l have never repented.
Were the same te be done again. / wO'd
do as have done" A telegram TO the
Tribune states that the particular report
of the first gun of the Democratic cam
paign was greeted with "voeiferovs ap-
plsuse." OF course it was. Mississippi
is going to put her best foot forward this
year in behalf of Democratic restora-
tion-just wait and see the official figures
of that majority in Yazoo county. Why
shouldn't the applause have been "vo-
ciferous"? Mr.. Davis is veteran cam
paign speaker and understands how to
arouse and delight his audience as we'll
as the next man. He knew the senti-
ments of the Mississippi audience that
it was given him to address. and be
knew, therefore, how to awaken vocif-
erQus applause.
1t is earnestly to be hoped that no
Republican newspaper will take occasion
To criticlse this first gun of the Demo
cratic campaign, saying, for instance.
that jefferson Davis remarks were
enough to cause every sour apple tree
in the country to sigh as it reflected npun
an untitled prophecy. For criticism of
that sort will be greeted by Democrat
with vOciferous Indignation
as da tardly attempt 10 wave the bloody
SHIRT. To spout treason Is not 10 wave
that garment. But to denUunce the
spOuting is to wave il.
This, however, is wide of our present
rurposr. We simply desire to call atten-
tlUn tn an i teresting piece of political
news. The Democratic National cam
pal2n has been formally opened Miss
is>ippi has already evinced her deter
mination to earn the proud title Of the

Proposing TO Tie Itself.

Only one party ever has gained enough
public confidence to control legislation
in free country, we believe,-certainly
only one in this countTy,-that has felt
obliged to propose Constitutional
Amendment to protect the country
against itself. Ne other party has been
conscious that it was likely to dishonor
and bankrupt the Nation by its own act,
and therefore no other has conceived it
expedient to have its hands tied. The
Democratic party, it must be admitted,
has reason for its self-diStrust. Ii EN-
braces large number of members who
have been hostile to the public faith in
almost every con ceivable form-clanor-
Gus for imitation, for silver debasement,
fer unlimited paper, and voting repeat
edly for fat reputation of solemn public
pledges. Such party may well want to
tie its own hands, when it becomes aware
that people will not trust it unless its
hands are tied.
Mr.. Bayard's proposed Constitutional
Amendment is, therefore. one which
every Democrat may well support. 1t
aims to make it impossible for the Dem
ocratic party to issue more legal tender
notes, as the United States has pledged
itself not to do, or to make paper prom
ises of any sort a legal tender. That
such q restriction should be thought
needful for time of peace, when no
public emergency offers an excuse for
departure from the honest money of the
civilized world, is confession which the
Democrats had not been expected to
tirely justifies. No other party has ever
tried to break the public faith or to de-
bauch the currency. No other is afraid
of itself, for no other has any reason to
be afraid of itself In fact, there is not
d substantial business man anywhere in
the land who has any fear as to the Ma
total credit or the sOundness of the
currency when the Republican party is
in power. If it were certain that Con-
gress would be composed wholly of Re
publicans, Mr.. Bayard himself would
consider his proposed amendment abso-
lutely superf1uous and useless.
Dispatches from Washington say there
i chance that the proposed amendment
v II be passed by the present Democratic
House. That would clearly be wise
thing for that party TO do. Knowing
that the country does not dare 10 trust
it with its hands united, the party may
well publicly propose to tie itself. No
doubt there are many voters who would
prefer to vote foI the Democratic party, |
if thew could be sure that it could not
poss. bly ruin them or disbOnor the coun-
try. Really, it would be wise for the
Democratic party to give those people a
it can.-N. Y. Tribune.

Freaks of Fashion.

Gray and brown are the coming cOlors
Waistcoats are all the rage for ladies
dresses.
Floral designs predominant in the new
percales and sateens.
Black crepe lisse trims the neck and
sleeves of some of the newest black silk
dresses.
Black silk and satin dresses are bright
ened with bows of gold colored satin rib
bOns and coquilles of black lace.
Large flower designs ON the new silk
fabrics will be outlined with narrow
lace embroidered in jet or beads.
Almost the only trimming employed
On the handsome silk and velvet dresses
of little children is the large, full sash.
Gendarme- blue is so becoming that
English women have revived it, and are
tOning it with brown marabout trim
mings.
New cloth costumes are trimmed with
pinked out bands of the same material,
self cOlored or shaded, as may be pre-
ferred, with the edges cut in large round
scallOpS or elongated sharp teeth.
The palm leaf fans that are painted On
one side, and have a natural spray of
flowers on the other, have now a small
pocket, placed near the handle, behind
the bow, for hold the lace handkerchief.
Walking boots of black or bronze kid
are made With from seventeen to twenty
four very small buttons for dressy toll
cites, for patent leather with cloth gait

The accordion skirt costume" is the

A writer asserts that lettuce planted
early in the spring between the rows OF
strawberry plants will protect the latter
from the ravageS of white grubs, which
prefer the roots of the lettuce to those
of the strawberry.
In ancient times among the SlavoniC
tribes which inhabitSd the Steppes OF
Russia horse stealing was considered
such crime that the punishment in
fiiGted was loss of liberty for life and n
contiscation of all the property of those
found guilty. If such views we're taken
in modern times it might have tenden-
cy to lessen such work.
An Illinois farmer says he gets best
results with his clover hay by cutting
when in bloom aud when free from ex
ternal moisture, hauling direct to the
barn in the afternoon that which was
cut in the forenoon, and sprinkling it
with eight quarts of air slaked lime to
each ton.
An experienced borticulturist advises
planting standard pear trees in prefer
ence to dwarf, As a rule, except where it
is desirable TO raise many varieties in d
very small space.
If the trees of an old orchard are good
sorts it is useless to regraft. Manuring
and pruning are all such trees need.
Do not let the farm hands be exposed
in hard, cold rains, at the risk of long
sickness in the busiest time of the year.
Cows that have not wintered well need
little extra care just now. A warm
bran slOp, with little ginger, fed daily
will produce wonderful results.
Sheep losing wool, says the American
Agriculturist, may be relieved of the
irritation by mixture of equal parts of
sulphur and cream of tartar, given in
half ounce doses.
Horses feet need looking after during
the cold, muddy, spring weather. A
daily cleaning of the exposed parts is
essential to the health as well as to the
comfort of the animals
The Irish Farmer calls attention to
the fact that all the leading dairy breeds
of cows come from countries near the
seashore and where there is an abundant
supply of moisture in the atmosphere.
The milking capacity of common cows
may be greatly increased by moistening
their food. If water is always convent
ent COWS will drink much more, but it
does not follow that water so taken will
be assimilated with the food in the stom-
ach as it will where both food and mois-
ture are taken together.
The following advice is from Ian
dreth, the great scotsman: The great
unce tainties Incidental to the germina
tion of seeds at all seasons are many
fold greater in the tickle spring time,
when transitions of heat and cold, heavy
ra ms and sweeping winds are only sea-
sonable and in order. A delay of week
may make all the difference between
success and failure; do not risk your
time and labor by hasty seeding, or if
YOU are tempted To sow DIT an uuseason-
able period. do not blame the scotsman
fol selling st eds that will not grow.
