Last season the corn worm destroyed al.
most the entire crop of corn in Della county,
and will probably be as bad this season, il
not worse, and how to protect the crop is
serious question aud has bothered the brain
Of more than Que man. q. n. Hastings gives
us what he considers good plan, and which
looks reasonable. 1t is well.known that
these worms are Matched from eggs laid by
moth, and thatthe moth operates only during
the night. IL the ia mer will put torches in
his corn field, say one to each acre. an old
campaign torch is good thing. and keeping
/, burning during the night during the time
the corn is tasscl;ng and getting into silk,
these moths VIII fly to.thc light and through
il, scorchng their wings, aud rendering them
powcrless of doing harm. The remedy is
very SIMPLE and could be easily given test.
The campaign is over and to'chcs could pro-
bably be had very cheap just now.

No Protection for Labor.

In previous article we called attention
to the fact that the democratic platform is
swindle in the matter of protection
We quoted General Buffers remarks in
the national democratic convention. as
serting that the tariff plank is fraud
and that it is not in favor of protecting
American workingmen.
The only difference between the tariff
planks of so and 81 in the democratic
platforms is that the former declared for
tariff for a revenue only" while the
latter declares in favor of tariff tor
public purposes exclusively" The mean
ing OF both is the same, the change OF
words being introduced solely with an
idea that it might aid to obscure the mean
ing and render the plank susceptible of a
double Interpretation. SO that either might
be used, according to circumstances.
We have another good witness, besides
General Butler, to show that the plank re-
ferred to is not in favor of protection.
1t is Henry Watterson. leading democratic
editor of Louisville, member of the recent
national democratic convention. also mem
Der OF the convention of so. and author
of the "taritf-for-revenue-only" express
sion of the platform of so, also of the
tariff plank in the present democratic
platform.
In an interview recently reported Mr..
Watterson said:
IF any one can see anything in that
platform that savors of protection. he
observes a chrome, as being gifted with
ian abnormal amount of perception. The
"tariff plank says that revenue shall be
raised exclusively for public purposes.
THAT means nothing more or less than a
tariff for revenue only. We did not
.'adopt the old plank, because = majority

''of the members had got an idea that it
twas that word only that defeated us in
"'S0. We inserted the word exclusive
'ly,' because it sounded BETTER
Let no workingman permit himself to
be imposed upon and cheated by the tariff
plank of the democratic platform. The
platform is against protection. and the
democratic party is led and controlled by
free traders, whose theories, if carried in
to practice, would reduce the wages OF
lsborers in this country to the starvation
prices Of laborers in England.

Judge +. II. HOar.
WHAT He SAID Ar WORCESTER OF THE
MASSACHUSETTS BOILERS AND BLAINE.

Now we have little company of gentle
men in Boston and Cambridge. with here and
there a little inroad in the country towns,
who have concluded that they cannot support
! Mr. Blaine, and are organizing for an attack
upon him. Most Of them are men who at
some time. or usually, have acted with the
/ republican party, and some of them, gentle
men, are entitled to the respect and gratitude
/ OF the republican party. | am going TO tell
you just what | think in my heart to night,
as far as | talk with you, and have nothing
| to say in regard TO the character or the mo-
tiyes Of the gentlemen TO whom | refer. Col.
Goldman, who presided to day at the demo
cratic laughter, excuse me, independent
conference in New York, is a brave, honora
BILE, honest man applause and he has done
good service to the repub lean party. Think
he is very much mistaken. His objection, as
/ see by the papers to night in his speech to-
day to Mr.. Blaine, is his unftness in point of
character to receive the republican nomina-
ton. This is ba ed upon an uncharitable
construction of a singh sentence Of letter of
Mr.. Blaine, which Mr.. Blaine himself said
had no such meaning, and which is contrary
to the whole tenor of Mr. Blaine's life.
Well, there is my friend, DR. James Freeman
Clarke; why, he is one of the salt of the
can't quite call it mania because it has
something of reason attached to it, bnt he
has proclivties to bolt. He has made him
self somewhat famous in that wav. lie says
he k1Uws nothing Of the character of Mr..
Blaine. President Elliott am very fond of
Harvard College | think it is the first place
OF public education in the country and an

administration Of ii has been very vigorous,
very successful and very able, but President
Elliott apparently has not studied the tariff
question with the care of some of the men
whose business it affects. Here. however,
President Eliot, free trader though he may
be, asks the republicans of Massachusetts to
join the democratic party with Mr.. Cleve-
land, whatever he NAV be, at his head, and
Mr.. Hendricks close behind him.
Bnt, fellow citizens, there is one thing |
ought to have said about Mr. Blaine. In re-
gard 10 the common accusation upon that,
| have personally never taken any stock in
them-neyer have believed in them-for the
reason that have known the man. APP
plause. No man can point to an act OF his
in public life from which he has ever made
private profit or advantage. have dared to
think, to call myself his friend. Applause.
| never heard from him an expression of
purpose or opinion that was not on the side
of the highest and the best. APP
pause. Mr.. Blaine is brilliant
man. He is a man of great versatility of re-
sources, In the consultations that we had in
regard to bringing about specie payments and
preserving the faith of the Government and
redeeming its greenbacks, Mr.. Blaine assisted.
At these consultations were suggested great
variety of sentiments. There, too, he
showed himself very fertile in eXpedients.
