A correspondent ofthe Country Gentleman
claims TO have discovered a remedy which
prevents the rose bug from destroying the
blossoms of jlc grape. The depredations OF
this bug on our cultivated grapes have been
increasing from year 10 year until there are
now localities ia this couy where il is al
mos. impossible to grow crop OF grapes,
the bugs eating the blossoms Us soon a they
are open. The bug seems TO be attracted TO
the grape by the sweet 0doroithe blossoms;
ACTING upon this hint, small yiais were

Special Legislation.

If there is any one characteristic OF
the Democratic party more commenda-
BILE than another, it is its consistent op-
position to special legislation. Nothing
can be more detrimental to the general
welfare and prosperity of community as
an aggregation than the comforting of
special privileges or advantages to one
element to the exclusion of others. Leg
islation should always be general, and
in it's application effect every citizen
alike. When determinations are made
between industries or occupations un-
due advantages are always obtained by
the stronger and the weaker become
mere tributaries to centralization. Ac-
cord, for instance, inordinate protection
to any special calling, employment, bus
iness or enterprise, the more wealthy
engaged in such by corporate franchise
will consolidate their capital, crush out
the weaker of the same class, obtain a
monopoly, extort from the consumer,
compensate labor by the hour with
prices dictated by the monopoly, stock
the market with over production, send
labor adrift and fill the land with
tramps. For proof, take any branch of
manufacture and see how it works un-
der protection.
Selfishness is bad thing to cater to,
yet everywhere selfishness is holding
conventions and demanding special
legislation for its protection. The brew.
ers and liquor dealers want laws made
in their special interests; the WOO
growers have just issued their manifes
to; the sugar makers have issued a cal
for meeting; one industry after anoth
er is calling convention. All demand
f special protection, and every new pro
lection accorded is new tax added tt
the burden already born by the con
! sumner and the agricultural producer
} and discount taken from the farm
product and the earning of the muscle
of labor.
Protect! protect! When shall i
cease? And what is to become of tn
poor devil who is caught between it
finely grinding stones?
e Let us adhere to the good old Demo
cratic doctrine of mo special legisla
tion"-"no privileged classes"

The crowd outside the Jail, though
large, was very orderly.
Johnson's bearing was that of a man,
who had given up all hope of life, but
who had determined to meet his doom
without a quiver. His last hour was
passed in company with his spiritual
adviser in prayer, Johnson in in kneel-

forehead in reverential position.

ment was just, to which he said Eyes"

An Open Field.

A few of our Democratic brothers in
neighboring counties are quite Jealous
in furthering their work of giving the
Hon. w. ID. Hill third term in Con
gress, and say he should receive unan'
imous call, inasmuch as he has made 6
good Congressman and therefore de
serves third term. And they go much
further than this, and intimate it is
cheeky for anybody else to even oppose
Mr.. Hills nomination.
These Democratic friends have the
privilege of advancing the interests Ot
Mr.. Hill, or any other body, but they
should at least be consistent in what
they do and say, and not be too ready
to denounce those who may wish or dc
announce themselves as candidates in
opposition to Mr.. Hill, or as friendly tC
some other candidate. 1t is not sup.
posed that the field can be clear for any
man, for,
In the first place, this is new dis
trict, and any Democrat who may wish
to present his name for Congressional
honors has perfect right to do so, SC
long as it is done in good faith.
In the second place, admitting that
Mr.. Hill has made good Congressman
(which he certainly has, and has serv'
ed two terms, he still has no more claim
upon the convention than any Other
candidate. He is placed in similar
position as was Gen. Rice when Mr.
Hill received his first nomination. Mr.
Rice presented his name before thai
convention, asking for third term, the
district being a new one. Mr.. Hill
fought Mr.. Rice upon that ground and
came out ofthe tightsuccessful, although
Gen. Rice was one of the best Congress
men ever sent from the Northwest.
In the third place, if the district is not
to be recognized as a new one, then Ger.
tainly these friends place Mr.. Hill more
vividly in the light of third termer
which is obnoxious to the rank and file
of the party and against the best inter
ests of the organization. Atleast this is
the belief of four-fifths of the Democra
cy in this section, who have spoken in
unmeasured terms against third term
ism.
1t is accorded to Mr.. Hill the right O.
being a candidate, and his friends shoulG
accord the same right to others, wheth
er it be Mr.. Heller, Reese, or any othel
Democrat in the district. Let the can
vass be conducted orderly and in de
cent manner, gentlemen.
