How to Keep Borers from Destroy
Ing AppleTrecs.

Go to patch of young timber in
the spring of the year, cut a few
hickory poles, hall them home, saw
them into short pieces, about the
size OF stove wood, and put one or
TWO STICKS at the roots of each apple
tree, The millers will deposit their
larva on these sticks in preference to
the apple trees. Toward the latter
pant of the season gather up the sticks
and burn them to1 fire wood. By this
method you prevent your trees from
d ecoming injured by being partly gir-
died, causing rotten spots in them near
the roots. Mr.. John Boyd, who has
one of the finest orchards in the country
formed us several years ago That in
this way he kept his orchard free from
these pests, and with little tro uble.

Democratic Northwest. [volume] (Napoleon, Ohio) 1869-1894, 1885-05-28

How things have changed! The
grand old party makes as much noise
now over the election of one Republi-
can to the United States Senate in a
Republican State as it did few years
ago when it elected President. The
most unimportant success in State
like Illinois, where success has hereto
fore been matter of course, is hailed
as famous victory. The election of
Logan does not change the political
complexion of the United States Senate
or add an iota to the power of the Re-
publican party. Logan in the Senate
under a Republican administration
amounted to but little, and Eow that
change has taken place his insignifi-
cance will be much more marked.

Boss KUMLER still holds on to his
fat collectors office, but it will not be
for long. 1t is strange that Kumler
would hold position for moment
under those naughty Democrats, whom
he pictured in such crimson colors last
fall. The almighty dollar works won
ders in men of the Boss Kumler stripe.
Had he been a man his resignation
would have been in the hands of the
President weeks ago, but he prefers to
be kicked out like dog. He will be
kicked.

THERE is an overwhelming sentiment
throughout the State in favor of tender
ing the Democratic nomination for
Governor to Allen G. Thu rman, and it
is believed unanimous nomination
would be accepted by the old Roman.
In that event the brave, gallant and
honest leader would receive triumph
ant endorsement at the polls. With
his name at the head of the ticket,
Democratic success is assured. His
sterling integrity and unsullied honor
have made his name household word,
and will bring to his standard support
ers from all parties.-ToledO Bee.

THOSE Republican officials who cling

THOSE Republican officials who cling
to the offices to which they were ap-
pointed by Hayes and Garfield, remarks
the Cleveland Pain Dealer, bear the
same relation TO Mr.. Cleveland that the
fellow who tried to borrow money from
Judge Don Pardee, of New Orleans did
to Don. The Judge was approached as
follows: Judge, lend me $lO." "Why"
said the Judge, "should I lend you
money? You are always opposed to me
politically" Well, in reply to the
Judge the fellow said, "Don, am with
you financially, but politically l am
agin' you" These Republican officials
are with the administration financially,
but politically they are against it.

The revision of the old testament is
completed and the word "hell' has dis

HELLO! Here is another story start
ed by the organs. Ii. Is intimated now
that the President and his sister have had
misunderstanding and that she will
not return to the White House from the
visit she is now making in New York
State. A few of the more "washy''
variety are publishing that Miss Cleve-
land is a Republican, notwithstanding
she says that she is the strongest kind
ofa Democrat. A correspondent con-
tradicts this lie, and says that Miss
Cleveland has decided to lengthen her
stay, with her brothers approval. Be-
tween the brother and the sister there
is perfect understanding, and it is
hardly less than an insult to both the
Presidentand Miss Cleveland to construe
her absence that they have disagreed
on the subject of temperance or any
other matter. The radical temperance
friends of Miss Cleveland may disprove
of her course in countenancing wine in
the White House, but she has sense
of the fitness of things which is as un-
erring as her judgment is strong. Miss
Cleveland, having had her visit out,
has returned to the White House in
company with a lady friend, who will
be her guest for few weeks. The
President has forbidden the White
House to two newspaper correspond
ents who reported the silly twaddle
about him and his sister quarreling..and
that she had left the White House new
er to return.

VICTOR HUGO died Friday last. By
his death France loses a really famous
man, of extraordinary intellectual gifts
-one who, for nearly half century,
has been regarded as the most remarka-
BILE representative of French genius.
He was born February 26, 1902, at
Besancon, where his father was then
commandant of the garrison. His
mother was native of lie Vendee, and
from her he imbibed romantic royalist
sentiments, although his father was a
devoted follower of Napoleon. His
youth was spent partly with his moth
er in Paris, partly in Italy and Spain,
where his father held high appoint
ments. He early acquired distiction
by his poetic effusions, and before he
was 80 years of age his Published works
We're numerous and his name famous.

IT should not be forgotten in the final
survey of the late senatorial battle in
Illinois, that the success of the victor
only became possible through an exces-
sively mean, dishonest, and dirty trick.
True, there can be no excuse for the
sleepy inaction of the Thirty-fourth dis
trict Democrats, who allowed the enc
my to steal the district in the face of a
Democratic majority ofover 1000 votes;
butthe-district was none the less stolen.

RIEL's CASE.
He is Likely obe tried by Military
Court.


Court.
WINNIPEG, May 24.-Attorney Gem
eral Hamilton, interviewed as to how
Rieps alleged American citizenship
would affect the latter's trial and pun
ishment says: "Riel can be tried by
military court-martial just the same as
if he were British subject. No right
of citizenship gives protection in case
of such Offense. Riel could also be
tried in the civil courts and condemned,
and In either case the sentence could be
executed with perfect safety even If he
We're an American citizen. He forfeits
all protection by violating the law of
the country in which the act providing
for punishment in such cases was
passed. A military court-martial is
likely to be adopted in Riel's case, and
doubtless in any event the sentence
will be executed.n
