assigned to the true cause the
stripping steep land q is covering q

scorched pastures, small crops, and
Improbable husbandry.
2. The Increased cost. Of buildings,
bridges. furniture. and implements Of
all sorts, which are, Ia whole Or in
part, made of wood. A large item In
the current expenses Of railroads il
The outlay for ties. which must be
renewed frequently. Wood for fuel
or structural uses ID prime necessity
of civilized life; and, as it is bulky
its cost increases rapidly with the
distance is must be carried to reach
the consumer. Many countries have
no stores Of coal or peat. and must
have wood. or be sorely stinted for
fuel; that stinting is waste Of time,
health and vitality. Floods make the
maintenance of roads difficult and
costly and SO, of course. increase the
expense Of whatever must be hauled
over them, especially anything 50
bulky as wood. Further, scarcity OF
timber means the cessation Of many
lucrative industries which use wood
for their raw material, and which are
especially desirable as affording en-
ployment during portions of the year,
when agriculture or the cara of flosks
does not call for all Of the farmers
time.
8. There is regular arrangement
Of climate and rainfall. II is by no
means certain that, at least, in some
situations, more rain viii not fall in q
year upon well-wooded than upon a
bare region. Certainly what does fall
will not evaporate, and be carried
away by the wind as quickly. Sudden
changes Of temperature, and the result
ng violent winds are less liable to
occur where woods abound. A forest
is a better barrier against wind than d
stone wall Of equal height, because ]
divides its force, and does not stop it
all at once, causing eddies and re-
bounds which may do damage else
where.

The majority OF legitimate flowers
(if ] may be allowed the expression)
get themselves decently fertilIzed BY
bees and butterflies. who may be con-
sidered as representing the regular
trade. and who carry the formulating
pollen on their heads and proboscides
from one blossom to another. while en-
gagged In their usual business Of gather
ing honey all the day from every open
ing flower. But Ratlesia, on che con-
trary, has positively acquired . falla-
clous external resemblance TO warm
Tea, and decidedly high flavor On
purpose TO take In the too trustful SUI
matran flies. When fly sights and
scents one, he Tor rather she) proceeds
at once to settle In the cup, and there
lay number Of eggs In what it natu-
rally regards as q very fine decaylng
carcass. Then, having busted itself
over in the process with plenty OF pol

.confidingly to the next promising bud,
In search both of food for itself and Of
fitting nursery for its future little
ones. In doing so. 1t Of course fertili-
zes al the blossoms that it visits one
after another by busting them sue
cessively with each others pollen.

iidence Even as Zeuxis deceived the
very birds with his painted grapes. 50
RafIlesia deceives the dies themselves
by It's ingenious mimicry Of putrid
beefsteak. In the fierce competition Of
tropical life. it has found out by sim
pie experience that dishonesty is the
best policy.
On most mountain bogs in Britain
one can still find few pretty white
flowers Of the rare and curious grass
of Parnassus. They have each five

petal stands little forked organ. with
eight or nine thread-iike points. termi-

the drops with yolr finger, and lOl you
will find it is solid bali or gland.
The flower, in fact, is only playing at
producing honey. Yet so easily are
the flies for whom 1t caters taken in by
q snowy advertisement. that not only
will they light on the blossoms and try
most industriously for long time to-
gether to extract little honey from
the dry bulbs, but even after they have
been compelled to give up the attempt
as vain they will light again upon q

Parnassus thus generally manages to

S.. John on Rum,

Rochester, n. Y, l4.-At the
Lyons camp meeting to day the
principal feature was the address of
ex Governor S.. John. He said 10
substance: "AIl political power is
inherent in the people, and they
propose 70 use it 10 protect their
homes against the destructive in
fluence of 175,0C0 lesalizsd saloons
in this country. No evil to-day is
so great as the liquor traffic. 1t is
Suilty of every crime known in The
catalogue; it robs the poor Of their
money, the nation of Its honor and
manhood; it destroys homes, stuff
ballot boxes, SCOTS at virtue, and
Ievels in vice. and has no conscience
and knows no God, and ought to be
condemned by the laws of the land.
Yet acknowledged as it is the great
est evil OF to-day, neither Of the
cid political parties dare say word
against it, for fear OF losing the
whisky vote; 1t matters not which
OF the old parties win it means the
continuation of the liquor traffic.
Democratic whisky ID no worse
than Republican whisky, and the
quicker we get rid Of both the bet
ter will be- for our country. The
Prohibitionists present the
county the only living issue OF the
hour, that teacher of the heart and
conscience of the people, and the
people propose to press this matter
until this measure Is triumphant,
and bksses every home In this land.
The Political party, in the face OF
this 6 sat evil, that Is afraid to stand
up for the right, ought to be and
will bebeaten. You say you do not
want to throw away your vote. Re
member, no vote was ever lost that
was cast for a principle. Let 1t not
be forgotten that the party or indi'
vidual that dies battling for the
right goes dawn with tbs blessed
promise OF q glorious resurrection
Prohibitions sta are right. God il
just, and victory is sure to come.

Denver and Salt Lake.

TaE SUPREME COURT.
Fnyette Election Case-Coleman's Case
Ended Minor Business

Fuyette Election Case-Coleman's Case
Ended Minor Business
The election difficulty in Fayette county
came up Saturday in the Supreme Court
of Appeals, on an appeal, and argument
begun. Briefly stated the case grew out of
a belief that fraudulent votes had been cast
in the county, and the Democratic candi-
date for Prosecuting Attorney, Clerk Of the
County Court and Clerk Of the Circuit
Court demanded q recount Of the votes cast
in several precincts. The county court got
to work on the recount, when the Republl'
cans obtained a writ of prohibition from
Judge Holt, which wac afterwards dismissed.
A writ of error was then obtained from the
Supreme Court and the case set for hearing
Yesterday. A small and select circle Of at
~iorneys alone heard the argument. Judge
Brown, assisted by L.. G. Gaines, conducted
the case for the appellants, and Governor
elect Wilson for the appellees. 1t will prob
ably be several days before a decision is
given. The case seems to hinge on the
question whether the court. when sitting to
count the votes, is a judicial body and the
entire proceeding a matter of record.
