The lilacs tall.

Allindications point to the probability
that Dakota has established ito case
against Governor Ordway and that he
will not return to the territory in an
official capacity. There is no assurance
that he will encounter the peremptory
removal to which his acts ::entitle him,
but it is generally conceded that he will
not be reappointed. Pending.the expir-
alton of his term, in case he is not re.
moved prior to that date, he will be a.
lowed leave Of absence. sufficient to cover
the !balance of his period Of
service, if he desires it. Mr.. Ordway's
fall is one which must ever be the final
result of Irregularities in the performances
of official duty. He came to Dakota at
time when it was ipossible for one in
his position to place himself where last.
ing renovn would attach to his name.
But he has chosen to cover himself with
ignominy and will retire from the guber.
material chair with the maledictions oi

him. This is the result created by him.
self and only Ordway is to blamo for it.

The new Washington correspondent of
the Chicago Inter- ocean is not telling
the truth in all things. He says:
The fact of the matter is. the great
crowd of Dakota people in town are
dong the interests of the territory more
harm than good, and better be called
home. If they could agree upon any
thing they might get bill through con.
gress, but there are seven OF

at odds and abusing each other

bringing congress and the president to
the opinion that Dakota is q nuisance

into wrangle and contradicting each
other, and prominent member Of the
committee on territories told them very
plainly the other day that it was useless
Tor congress to waste time in consider.
ing Dakota matters until the represen.
tatives from the territory could agree
upon what they wanted.
Reliable gentlemen Just from Wa.h

fiction. The people who are there from
Dakota are creating no disturbanc,
whatever and there is no feeling toward
them excepting one of kindliness ani
frieudliness. They are received by til,
president and by congressman with cor
diality and listened to with respectfu

writes many other things not true.

say that this alleged assertion is utterly

brought before the grand Jury in any
connection whatever. No charge of any
kind has been intimated against him

informed and believe, 10 without re.

General Campbell further states that
the assertion from Governor Ordway
that there was any proposition. bargain
or attempted bargain between MIR
Palmer and himself about the judgesbir
is untrue. He Gays: II have made nc
personal efforts to present my own nam,
for the judgeship. What has been don,
in that regard has been done by nom

on my part and with the distinct under
standing that was not to make any per

When to Cut Grass.

The analytical chemist of the De-
partment Of Agriculture, summing
up the results Of analysis of nearly
all the cultivated grasses, says it is
apparent that in most cayes the time
of bloom, or thereabout, it is the
fttest for cutting grasses in order to
obtain the most nourishment and
largest relatively profitable crops,
and for the following reasons: The
amount of water has diminished, and
the shrinkage will therefore be less.
The weight Of the crop will be the
largest in proportion to the nutri-
tive value Of its constituents. The
amount Of nitrogen not present as
albuminoids will be at its lowest
point fibre will not be SO excessive
as to prevent digestion, and the nutri-
tive ratio will be more advantageous.
If cut earlier the shrinkaSe Is larger,
although the fibre is less and albu-
men is little larger. The palata-
ability may be increased, but the to-
tai nutriments to the acre will not
be so large and the nutrtivc ratio
will be more abnormal. The disad-
vantages of late cutting are evident
in the increase of fibre destroying
the digcstibility of the nutrinicnts
and the falling off Of the albumen
by conversion into amidcs. This is
not made up by the larger crop cut.

FIELD AND FARM.
SHEEP.

The Merino sheep Of which there
are several vafictics--ti'r Saxon, the
French, and The Spanish-came
originally from Spain, and were no
doubt known to and appreciated by
the Greeks and Romans. They have
the finest wool Of the whole genus,
and great quantity to the weight
of the carcass. As mutton they are
quite nice in flavor, though inferior
to many other breeds rs flesh bearers,
being deficient in the fine points of
the carcass "The fine: the wool the
finer the mutton" an old saying,
does not seem to be contradicted by
the Merino, the quantity and not
the quality being deficient. And al
though the Merino has in the last
century doubled its weight of car
cass as we'll as of wool. the increas-
ing demand for mutton must give it
second place. The facility Of
transporting wool is ST. much great
er than that of flesh tn tt wool grow
ing must be more and more confined
to distant and comparatively BAR
barous lands; whilst The mutton
sheep must take their places near
the centers of population and con-
sumption. America can claim the
credit Of having made the greatest
improvement III this fine breed Of
sheep; and New En- ngland among the
States up to this time perhaps has a
claim to pre-eminence in this culture.
But there is still room for advance
and the end is not yet.
