TRANSMISSION Of Blood,

A sanguine young surgeon of
New York feels absolutely sure
that TRANSMISSION of blood from the
arterial system of hearty, healthy
young person into that of one SUIT
fering from pulmonary consump-
tion of tuberculosis, will, if persist
ed in, complete a cure. He says:
"Of course, the idea is not new, but
l firmly believe that TRANSMISSION of
blood is the true remedy for con
sumption and the diseases allied to
it, He intends, if he has the op-
pertunity, to test it in leprosy. His
first experiment was undertaken
four months ago, in the case of a
young man of twenty three, the
only son of wealthy dry goods
dealer, who was so far gone with
the disease that medical consulta-
ton had pronounced recovery hope
less, and death only a question of a
few weeks. The patient was so ex-
ceedingly feeble when the first
transfer was taken that only four
ounces were transfused, in conse-
quence of the disturbance of the ac-
ton of the heart that Immediately
ensued. The recrudescence of the
vital energies was, however, extra
ordinary. From the date, almost
from the moment of the experiment,
the patient began to improve. The
tendency to emacitation disappear
ed, and the pulmonary symptoms
were greatly reduced in severity,
relish for food returned, and the
nervous prostrat1on was greatly re-
lieved. Three weeks later the oper-
alton was repeated in six ounces of
blood, the method employed being
that of Prof. Joseph w. Howe, the
leading advocate of the United
States. The results of the second
experiment were more encouraging
than those of the first. Three
tIansfusions have been undertaken,
and the young man is now improv-
ing SO rapidly, both in general
health and social symptoms, that
the young surgeon is confident OF
success without another resort to
the TRANSMISSION syringe.

the editor may lose a hundred sub
scribers. Patchwork quilts, big
beets and phenonlinal eggs also
clamor for space in the columns OF
the country paper. In the course
of time the rural scribe becomes Ell
ther iocose or morose, but in either
frame of mind he continues to make
friends who demand free advertis
ing, and enemies who work against
him.
The country editor is always get
ting ready to abandon journalism
for something else, but he rarely
carries out his threat. He genera
ally dies in harness. In some wild
communities editors occasionally
meet with rough treatment. Some
times they are driven out of the
country, and when other methods
of getting rid of them fail, they
are sent to the legislature. The
city editor gets a great deal of fun
out of the country editors work,
but the man who bears the burden
regards it as a serious business.
And in the best sense it is serious.
The little local weeklies scattered
all over the country are in their
way potential factors of civilization.
They develope the localities, bring
their resources before the public,
and in a manner educate their read
ers. They are always on the side
of the churches, the schools, prog
ress and reform. Men who live
and die working for such objects
are public benefactors and deserve
d substantial reward. d.-Ex.

Both Sides of the Tariff.

Gen. Hancock said the tariff was
a local question. He meant that
the opinion of any locality was de-
termined by the effect of the tariff
on its leading industries or pro-
ducts. He might have added that it
is also only mere matter of opin-
ion. A free trader asserts things
his way and protectionist asserts
them contrariwise. They take the
same facts and conditions and spec
ulate each in his own direction, Civ
ing exactly diametric effects to the
same causes. This does not prove
either theory. The effect of tariff
has never yet been determined in
advance upon theory. 1t has always
brought surprising results. This
country has suffered one or two pan
les, and business has been several
times seriously affected and almost
paralyzed by injudicious tariff
changes. One can read Mr.. Wat
terson's phillipics and readily as
sent, and then read Mr.. Colyar in
opposition and find himself believ-
ing. Either theory is indisputable.
The facts can only be arrived at af-
ter the results are in. The present
tariff, oppressive as it seems, and
Internationally high as it is, has
brought the country into grander
era of prosperity than any nation in
all history ever enjoyed. Theory
cannot dispute this fact, although
it can show that the result could
not possibly happen. Let theo-
ry then go to the dogs and let
us put up with bad thing that has
such wonderfully good results. The
north has gathered in the rich har-
vest vouchsafed by this demon for
years, and now the south is getting
into position where the benefits will
come directly to her, as they did to
the north. The robber tariff did it.
The Internal tariff will do it again.
Let US keep the oppressive thing
hanging about our necks as long as
the harvest is rich. Free trade is
impregnable in theory but incident
al protection sullenly disappoints
calculations and yields apples of
gold where we looked only for ashes.
You say in answer to this that "the
country has been prosperous hut it
would have been immeasurably
more so if free trade had prevailed" I"
There you come with another the
ory. Perhaps you are right, but if
you are not, what an expensive ex-
pertinent it will be. Things are
well enough to be let alone. In our
opinion if free trade were forced
on the country panic would ensue
and business and manufacturing
paralyzed. 1t is only theory, but
it might happen, and we can avoid
its possibility.by letting well enough
alone.

A ROMANCE.
Wherein the Hero Escapes from In
dian Captivity and Marries His
Long lost Love.

Some years before the war, Otis
Burton, farmer residing near Ban
gor, left to seek his fortune in the
west. He drifted to Missouri,
where he met an accomplished
young lady with whom he fell des-
perately in love. She was pleased
with him, but before he made
his passion known she moved to a
distant part of the south.
And about this time the war
broke out, and the two lost trace of
each other. Burton joined the I'm
ion army, and was soon afterwards
wounded, and as It was supposed he
could not live, a letter was sent to
his mother informing her that her
son could not live. He, however
was blessed with a good constitu-
tion and recovered. He went back
to his regiment, and was detailed
with q company to take supplies
across the plains. The party was
attacked by Indians, and every man
except Burton killed. He was re-
ported to have been slain with the
rest. The Indians decided to let
him live, aDd took him prisoner
to their retreat in the mountains of
the southwest. He gradually re-
covered from the wounds he had re-
ceived in the encounter, made him
self agreeable to his captors, and
adopted. their way of living.
After he had been in captivity
six months or more he was allowed |
more liberty, and now began to |
watch for chance to escape. The |
Indians had stolen a number of po-
nies, and among them was one
which Burton's practical eye show
ed him was purely bred, swift, and |
with speed and endurance. This
pony was petted and cared for by |
Burton, and he was allowed to ride
him. One day he strayed further
away than usual, and though not
with the country, made
a dash for liberty. He was closely
pursued, but the gallant little fel-
low had the ''bottom" for winning
race. He rode three days, and
then begin to think he was out of
the hostile country. In the dis
tance he saw a house which he
thought must be inhabited by
whites. He shouted with joy, feel
ing that he had gained freedom at
last. He knocked at the door Of
the house and a surprise awaited
him. 1t was opened by the woman
he had loved in lang syne. He was
at once recognized and received a
hearty welcome. Burton told his
and narrow escape to a
willing listener. She, too, told her
story. She had married Confed-
crate officer, who was afterwards
killed in battle, and she owned
the farm she occupied. Is it neces-
sary to tell the rest? They were
betrothed, there was a merry we'd
ding, and the happy couple are still
living in a southwestern state.
Surely in real life there are roman
ces as strange and more interesting
than those woven by the fertile
brain of the novelist.

Heavy Purchase of Cattle.

Colorado will this year lead all
the states and territories in the
numbers of cattle it will purchase
and drive up from the great feeding
grounds of Texas. 1t has been
estimated by those competent to
to know that 100000 head will be
driven to Colorado from Texas, be-
sides $4,000 more that will be
shipped in from the western states
and from Tennessee and Arkansas.
These numbers, added to the 25O,-
900 calf crop of the present spring,
will swell our bovine family to
100000. The largest purchasers
of cattle in the lone star state the
present year will be the Messrs.
Pryor Brothers of Pueblo. They
have already purchased and will
drive into Colorado $4,000 head.
This immense band of cattle will
be mostly and 2 year old animals,
largely of the steer kind. Before
they have left their native heath
they have mostly been contracted for
by stock raisers at Trinidad and
Pueblo, and along the Arkansas
river. The prices paid by the Col
orado parties will range from SIT to
$25. We do not learn that any of
these Pryor cattle come north
of the divide. To drive this i'm
mense herd of cattle, the Pryor
Brothers have purchased 400 head
of saddle horses and will employ
from so to 100 men. They will
consume from sixty to ninety days
in making the move. This tedious
journey, were the Denver & New
Orleans road completed, would be
performed in sixty hours.-Denver

The Country Editor,

The country editor has q hard
time of it. He is the reporter,
book keeper, mechanical superin-
tendent, business manager, collec-
tor, mailing machine, and soliciting
agent of the establishment. His
work is hard, his receipts small,
and his creditors numerous. In a
small town an editor has to steer
his course so as to avoid giving of
fense to different circles of society,
the religious denominations, the
business community, and the rural
population. If an influential old
farmer wants three column notice
of his new barn, it must appear OF
