According to reports received at Republican
headquarters, Governor Cleveland has not only
succeeded in offending the wOrkingmen of his
State but has also provoked the soldiers. One
of the callers ut the State Committee rooms
points ont that among the bills vetoed by Mr..
Cleveland since he has been at Albany were
several the objects of which were dear to vet
erans and in no way in conflict with the
interests Of the State. But the Governor had
no consideration for them.

CROWS.

Much has been said about crows and
corn. The following item we cut
from the Country Gentleman:
GA farmer of Cass township,
Huntingdon county, Pa, wanted to
borrow gun from a neighbor for the
purpose of killing some crows in his
field of corn, which were eating his
grain. His neighbor declined to loan
the gun, for he thought the crows
useful. In order to satisfy his curl
osity he shot one of them, opened its
craw, and found in it twenty-one cut
worms and four grains of corn
A friend of ours who plants con-
siderable corn each year says he would
rather the crows would increase than
to have any killed. He thinks the
good they do in picking up grubs and
worms more than counterbalances
the evil they do in the little corn they
pull. He never puts up any scare
crows. but scatters little corn on the
surface of the ground for the crows
to eat, and never is troubled by hav-
ing his corn pulled. This season we
planted six acres quite distance from
any buildings and near some woods.
Nothing was done to keep the crows
off. Some neighbors living in sight
of the field told us our corn would all
be pulled up, as they could see large
number of crows on the field all the
time. A little was pulled at one end
of the field but only little. We do
not feel sure after this experience,
but that the crows are really friends
of the farmer. In this case we are
inclined to think they have done more
good than harm.

For Constipation, or Costiveness, no
They insure regular daily action, and re-
store the bowels to healthy condition.
For Indigestion, or Dyspepsia, AYERS
PILLS are invaluable, and a sure cure.
Heartburn, Loss of Appetite, Foul
Stomach, Flatulency, Dizziness, Head
ache, Numbness, Nausea, are all relieved
and cured by AYERS PILLS.
In Liver Complaint, Bilious Disorders,
and Jaundice, AYERS PILLS should be
given in doses large enough to excite the
liver and bowels, and remove constipation.
AS cleansing medicine in the Spring, these
PILLS are unequalled.
Worms, caused by a morbid condition of
the bowels, are expelled by these PILLS.
Eruptions, Skin Diseases, and Piles,
the result of Indigestion or Constipation, are
cured by the use of AYERS PILLS.
For Colds, take AYERS PILLS to open
the pores, remove inflammatory secretions,
and allay the fever.
For Diarrhoea and Dysentery, caused by
sudden colds, indigestible food, etc., AYERS
PILLS are the true remedy.
Rheumatism, Govt, Neuralgia, and
Sciatica, often result from digestive derange-
ment, or colds, and disappear on removing
the cause by the use of AYERS PILLS.
Tumors, Dropsy, Kidney Complaints,
and other disorders caused by debility or
obstruction, are cured by AYERS PILLS.

FARM GATES.

Farmers lose enough time letting
down and putting up bars to pay
their taxes, if probably expended.
| would have many gates upon the
farm. They are inexpensive, conve-
nient, and should be wherever there
will be any use for them. When |
see farm well supplied with gates,
/ know that man is progressive and
making money, and wisely seeks to
save it.
In these days of self binders the
gate-ways should be at least fourteen
feet wide. / have found the best
material for gate to be pine boards,
and seasoned white oak for end
pieces. All the wood used in the
construction of the gate should be
well seasoned. 1T is best to plane
all the woodwork, though this is not
absolutely necessary. Cover each
tenon with thick paint before it is
placed in its mor:ise. The gate it
self should be painted. Have every
thing fit tightly. Fasten the brace to
the cross-pieces with small bolts or
wrought nails we'll clinched. Nor
tise the ends of the cross-pieces into
the end posts, and secure them in
place with wooden pins wedged at
both ends, or iron bolts. The best
cross-pieces are made of pine fencing
boards six inches wide; the end
pieces should be four by seven-inch
scantling, although the one at latch
may be lighter. Five cross-pieces
are enough. The lighter the gate in
proportion to strength the better it is.

F. D. Curtis says the easiest ap-
piled and best remedy for gapes in
chickens is caustic lime, either air or
water siaked. 1t should be in a dry
powdered state. Take the chicken
IN the left hand and open its mouth,
keeping it upright, and then drop a
pinch of dry lime into it. Hold in
this position few seconds, until it
is obliged to breathe, when it inhales
some of the lime, then let it go.
One application of the lime in this
manner has cured, in my experience,
every case of gapes, some of them in
the last stages. After trying num-
Der of remedies l have hit upon this,
which is the best of all, as it is sim
pie and sure and does not injure the
chicken. The lime kills the worms.

NOT PAID FOR.

Three saloon-keepers in Chicago
were found guilty of selling to min
ors, and the following is the address
of the Judge who sentenced them:
By the law, you may sell to men
and women if they want it. You have
given bond and you are licensed to
sell to them; no one has a right to
modest you in your legal business, no
matter what families are destroyed or
rendered miserable; no matter what
wives are treated with violence, what
children starve or cry over the degre-
dation of a parent; your business is
legalized, and no one may intefere
with you in it. No matter what moth
er may agonize over the loss of son.
or sister blush for the shame of a
brother, you have the right to disre
gard them all and pursue your legal
calling you are licensed. You may
fit up for your lawful trade, you may
use all your arts to induce visitors,
you may skillfully expose to view
your choicest wines and captivating
beverages; you may then induce
thirst by all contrivances, producing
raging appetite for drinks, and
then you may supply to the full, be-
cause it is lawful; you have paid for
it; you have license.
You may allow boys, almost chill
dren, to frequent your saloons. You
may hold the cup to their lips, but
you must not let them drink-that is
unlawful. But while you have spec
ial privileges for the money you pay,
this poor privilege of selling to chill
dren is denied you. Here the parents
have right to say Leave my son to
me until the law gives you the right
to destroy. Do not anticipate that
| terrible moment when / can assert
for him no further right of protec-
ton; twill be soon enough for me,
for his mother, for his sister, for his
friends and the community to see him
take his road to death. Give him to
us in his childhood at least. Let us
have few years of his youth, in
which we can enjoy his innocence, to
repay, in small degree, for the love
we have lavished upon him.
This is something you who now
stand a prisinor at this bar, have not
paid for; for this is not embraced in
your license. For this offence the
court sentences you to ten days I'M
prisonment in the county jail, and
that you pay a fine of seventy-hve
dollars and costs; and that you stand
committed until the fine and costs OF
this prosecution are paid.

By cutting back the hybrid perpet-

Wheat ought to be nearly ripe but
not dead ripe, when cut. The old
rule was to harvest when the kernel
was in a dough state, but we believe
that waiting a few days after this

fires to have been extensive in various
places, and very destructive along the

drift wood west to Kane. Heavy fires
were IN progress all last night, and
many cattle are reported surrounded
by the flames. A number of fisher
men had great difficulty to get out of
the burning territory. A large tract
in the western part of the county Is
burned ,vrr, but the los is not
very heavy. In Tiago county the
fire is general, and a very large
quantity OF timber is destroyed along
the Tiago railway, as well as many
houses, hornes and other buildings.

The Agony Over.

Yesterday the governor appointed
Mr.. w. 7. Hardenbrook chief commits
sioner of Texas to the New Orleans
Exposition. That is mistake, very
grave one, we think, both as to the
objects to be served and as a matter
of policy affecting the govsrnor's
standing with the party. MI.
Hardenbrook is in no sense a
fitting man for the place
He is too new in the country, and is
practically inexperienced in all the
material interests, productions and
capabilities of Texas, the forwarding
of which the legislature had in view
when it made the appropriation for
the exhibit.
AS a matter affecting the veal of
his eXcellency before the Houston
convention it is bad. Whether or not
Major Elliott is better man for the
place tn IN Hardenbrook, he had all
north Texas at his back and
the governor disobliges these people
by the score in the selection he has
made, and north Texas will have a
very ugly majority in the convention.
There's heart-aches, and many of
them, in this action of the governor.
However, it's none of our funeral, and
we don't care tarthing,

Political Texas.

The position of Texas is a peculiar
one. Her material growth has been
so rapid, so vast and so wonderful in
every way that but little attention
has been paid to the growth of correct
political sentiments and policies. The
aggregate of political sentiment has
been so overwhelmingly democratic
that men have been to an extent in
different to the nature of that democ
racy, and careless as to the ultimate
outcome of it. In this way many
grave errors have crept into the poll
cies of the party almost without the
knowledge OF the masses. These will be
of easy correction as soon, or
whenever the great masses of
the party understand fully the
nature of the innovations in
policy which have been made, and
which are still contemplated and be-
ing attempted. There is no rotten
thing about the masses. They are all
right. 1t is only among the tortuous
and designing as well as selfish leader
ship that these devious and crooked
ends are sought. The masses, the
Flooding rank and file of the party,
take great delight at times in sitting
down squelchingly upon the over
grown pretentions of corrupt leader
ship. The indications at present are
that this purpose is entertained with
regard to some who are pushing with
might and main for the abrogatio1
of the two thirds rule. The people
are thoroughly sick of the sense
less assault upon one of the
most cherished usages OF the

The Syndicate.

1t is a good thing for Texas to have
a grand new capitol, and we would
be pleased to have it not only equal
but to surpass the national capitol at
at Washington, if that were possible.
Such an institution would feed the
laudable pride OF the state. 1t would
go far towards building up state
sentiment which would be useful in
many ways, and such sentiment would
always be found squarely across the
hawse of dismemberment. But there
is a remote possibility that we might
he compelled to pay too much even
for this necessary whistle. Observe
that we say possibility" instead of
probability, although the latter word
does not describe an impossible con-
dition. We would be paying entirely
too much for the great boon of cap
itol such as is provided for in the COLI
tract between the state and the syndi-
cate, if we permitted the syndicate to
have any sort of voice in the settle
ment or the domestic affairs or policy
of Texas. That is one of the things
which we cannot afford. The syndi-
cate will have vast body Of land
when the structure is completed, not
before. There is at this time, so
far as they are concerned, just
the difference between the bird
in hand, and his mate, which sings as
sweetly as ever it did in the bush
The prospect of the ultimate capture
of the free warbler is good, we grant,
but the syndicate must not presume
to furnish the music to which he must
MARBLE an accompaniment, until it
has placed its clutch firmly upon
him. just now Texas is having
nice little controversy with GER
tain gentlemen representing GER
tain interests which conflict with
certain other interests. She pro-
poses to settle, it by her own in
ternal forces. She is not going
outside for suggestions or any
thing else i'll the way of help,
and certainly not to Chicago. 1t may
turn out bad thing for the state in
the end that she cannot get up her en-
thusiasm for Chicago to the requisite
pitch that she will be willing to
place this important settlement in the
hands of aliens. They should not COM

THE republicans OF Texas have
gone through another farce of a state
convention. Perhaps were it not for
the federal patronage to be parcelled
out and disposed of, not a half-dozen
patriots would have appeared at Fort
Worth. But something is due to the
administration which has these nice
things to dispose of. Then, too, with
the willing patriots who are impotent
by reason of their being outside, they
must needs be there to sprinkle salt
on the tail of the bird whose JoVe-
like front may yet be flashed In the
faces of armies of eXpectants. What
scramble it is, indeed, and it
grows more and more dis
gushing and hyena-like as the
heads of the wranglers whiten under
the steady tramp of the years. Tracy,
Norton, DeGress, Newcomb, and a
host of newer and comparatively un-
known men have taken the places of
the old lot which, used to rally with
and against Gov. Davis. 1t is the
fashion for these fellows to rail out at
the office-itching malady affecting
democrats so seriously. What is the
disease when it affects the outs ?
They become subvertionists, icono-
clasts, disorganizers, etc. The game
of politics is indeed a dirty one, un
less the players are clean.
