Lincoln Journal.
The fight with the weeds in the corn
field should not stop with the cultiva-
tor. We have frequently seen farmers
strive manfully against the pests until
midsummer, and then, through negli-
gence, subject themselves to annoyance
through the season. Some weeds have
a limited season of growth, and if kept
rooted out till midsummer will rarely
come up again; others continue grow
ing until severe frosts come. An old
Illinois farmer said a cockleburr would
come up in the morning, grow until 4
the afternoon, and mature seeds before
frost could kill it that night: This is
an eXaggeration, yet the cockleburr
must be fought until there are heavy
frosts. The velvet leaf jimson and rag
weeds will commence growth almost as
late The ever-present sunfower does
not 90 out of business until frost, and
often scatters seed where its existence
is not suspected. And the sand-burr,
the worst pest of Nebraska fields, will
come out of the ground looking like
harmless grass, after harvest, and scat
ter Itself far and wide. Weeds are
very prolific, and an occasional one
gone to seed in the cornfield will insure
a good crop the next season. Corn
should not be cultivated after it has
but the weeds can be cut out
without disturbing the soil. For this
purpose we have seen short scythe
used, but we much prefer hoe with a
sharp edge.

A special telegram from the City of Mexico
says: The conspiracy against the government
discovered here embraces a plot to depose
President Gonzales and put in his place Jose
Maria Iglesias, and to assassinate Gen. Diaz
and all the leaders of what is known as the
'Tuxtepec party" The plot is said to be wide
spread in the states of Vera Cruz, Pueblo, Mo-
relies and Quaretero, and that there is great
deal of anxiety. A number of arrests have
been made in the City of Mexico during the
week, embracing several prominent persons.
Among them are Francisco Mejis, ex-minister
of finance; Ricord Rominez, ex-judge of the
federal district; Gregori Perez Jordon, a pro-
minent lawyer; Gen. Feliciano Chavarro, Col.
Yok Maria Rodriguez, ID. E. Vesz Augustine,

rez, Miguel Salcedo and Vidal Corral also the,
wife of Jordan. The latter has small print

were found ready for circulation, melting the
people to revolt against the present govern
ment and in favor of Iglesia. No other ex-
PLANTATION is given, but other arrests are ex-
pected to be made and active measures are to
be taken to defeat the plot.
