Randall and Warner,

"The Democratic party is pledged TO
reform the tariff and the currency. There
are, we notice, Democrats who want to
reform the tariff without Mr.. RANDALL g
help. Are they wise3 There are, we
suppose, currency reformers who would
like TO reform the currency without the
belp OF silver men like Gen. WARNER.
These reformers forget, probably. that
they need the help of Mr.. RANDALL to
effect any reform of the tariff, as they
will need the help of leading silver men
like Gen. WARNER to reform the curren-
cy. Without the cooperation of these
gentlemen no reform is possible IN.

The Proposed Settlement of the
Silver Question.

0hvON XuCStlOus
Those who feared that the vide differ
ence OF opinion among Democrats on
the silver question would cause a serious
rupture in the party, will be glad to learn
that the whole question is in fair way OF
o satisfactory settlement. The basis OF
the proposed settlement IS stated by
Gen. WARNER in an interview reported
by the New York correspondent OF the
Commercial. Gazette OF the 4th inst.
When asked about the silver question
to day he said:
"Tbe talk we hear about coming down
to silver basis is something cant un.
derstand. What was some time ago pre-
dicted, that II silver coinage was contin.
ed any longer gold would 60 immediste-
ly to a premium, which would take all
the gold of'the country out of circula.
ton and leave only the silver and paper
to constitute this volume OF money, aud
thereby bring Us down to asilver basis,
is an impossibility. A iefiac,ien of the
volume of money to the silver and paper
alone, would Of necessity result 10 a fur
ther fail OF prices, wh'ch means, Of
course, that silver and paper would great.
ly appreciate. Gold never leaves coun-
try where prices are low aud are falling
1t never leaves country where money
is appreciating. Gold leaves a country
when prices get too high and other mon
ey becomes deprecated"
"Wha, practical thing can be done in
the silver matter 2"
CAS- to the settlement OF the silver
question, ! believe that early 10 the next
session OF Congress satisfactory solu.
tion will be reached. My own idea is
that 1t will be by suspension of coin
age, and in its stead the issue of cer,iH-
Gates upon the deposit OF silver bullion
brought to standard fineness Tor coinage
Ut the market pr'ce At the time of deposit
In other words, monetize silver metal at
its market price. Such measure will
have support little dreamed of. It's de.
tails and effect / will not at present un-
dertake to discuss"

European nations have gone to the

WINTERING CABBAGES.
A Simple Plan to Preserve the Vegetable
Healthy Condition,

A Simple Plan to Preserve the Vegetable in
Healthy Condition.
A Dakota farmer writes to ask how
man who has no cellar can keep cab
bages through the winter. We are
happy to assure him that nothing can
be simpler Plow three or four fur
rows along the ground at point con-
venient to the farm buildings, making
bed say about four feet in width and
as long as you please. In these fur
rows lay your cabbage heads, with the
root stalk up, as close together as you
can place them, a double row in each
furrow if necessary. Put light cover
ing of hay over them and them cover
with earth eight OF ten inches deep.
About Christmas put a good load of
straw or hay over the whole. As the
cabbages are wanted for use take them
out, beginning at one end of a furrow
and going through to its other end. 1t
is only necessary to dig away part of
the dirt above till the root stalks of O.
cabbage is reached, then pull it out
without disturbing the others. Cab
bages stored this way will keep fresh
and crisp during the entire winter, and
will seldom freeze. 1t does not hurt
them, however, TO freeze. nor will a
single thawing affect them particularly,
but repeated freezing and thawing will
soon cause them to decay It may be
said, also, that it is far better to keep
cabbages in this way than in the cellar,
if this in under the house. Indeed, the
odor of cabbages when their outer
leaves begin to decay is so foul and so
prone to generate such diseases as
diphtheria and typhoid fever that we
should counsel farmers never TO store
them in the cellars beneath their dwell
Ings while rod of outside dirt can be
made available for the purpose
