In regard to the frauds committed upon
the ballot in Cincinnati an exchange very
truly remarks: The attitude of the out
ragged citizens of Cincinnati warns us that
there is n second danger impending if such
bold frauds and open defiance of law have
temporary triumph. The bulldozing
that has proved effective in one section.
and over one race, will meet with a sturdy
resistance from another race in another
section. These election outrages are not
only ut war upon the purity of the ballot,
and the rights of majorities. but they en-
danger the public peace, and if not
checked and punished may lead even to a
war Of factions, and an end of free gov
eminent. The danger is so great that no
man hoping a future in American politics
can afford to ignore it or treat it with
sneers."

The Ohio republican platform and ora
tors denounced the Cleveland administra-
ton. while the Ohio democratic platform
and orators sustained the administration.
Yet the mugwumps seriously contend that
the election of Foraker was the success of
Cleveland. Mugwumps are curious crea-
lures.
There is happily no longer any doubt as
to the complexion OF the Ohio legislature.
1t is safely republican without tie dele
CATION from Hamilton county, and that
delegation is also. with one exception, re-
publican. But if the republicans had not
been wide-awake and up-and-dong they
would have been cheated out of the legis
lature 6v the frauds OF the democracy.

River, and while going along he smelt
u terrible stencil and asked what was
dead, when Mr.. j. w. Wheeler
ed that it was dead snakes he smelt,
that he. Mr.. Wheeler, couple of Sun
days ago had seOn D lot of large black
snakes on the trees and went for his
gun and shot six or eight of them when
the rest ran in hole in a large oak
tree; he cut the tree down and COM
menced regular slaughter, and when
completed he counted twenty-five black
snakes which ranged from three to five
feet In length, The next day some par
ties killed nine more at the same place.
Mr.. Powell says he never before saw
the carcasses of so many black snakes
in all his experience in surveying.

Above shown moon and star,
And blazing camp fires glimmered near an,
far
The supper of pork and beans, hare
tack and coffee served up in tin plate.
and cups, though perhaps, not luxur,
to most of us, served well the purpos,
of illustrating the old camp life, and o
carrying back the veterans twenty year,
to live over again the old camp lif,
days when they chad to- relish the old
army bean.

some stirring and patriotic remarks.
Several other gentlemen from different
places made short speeches but owing
to the confusion of talking and laugh
ing, thOughtlesSly ly no doubt, it was i'm
possible tor those who wore Interested
In the exercises to hear or understand
much that was said.

Importance of Bulk in Food.

Although the presence of a sufficient
quantity of nutritive matters in the food
Is naturally the most fundamental mat
ter for consideration, its bulk is scarcely
less important. The function of diges-
ton requires that the food shall prop
erly fill the stomach; and however large
the supply of nutritive matters may be,
their effect is imperfectly brought out if
the food be too small in bulk, and it
actually becomes more valuable if
diluted with woody fibre or some other
inert substance. On the other hand, if
a food be too bulky, the sense of reple-
ton causes the animal to cease eating
long before it has obtained a sufficient
supply of nutritive matter. 1t is most
necessary, therefore, to study the bulk
of the food, and to consider how to mix
different substances in such a manner as
to adjust the proportion of nutritive
matter to their bulk. If we examine the
nature of the mixed foods most nvogue
among feeders, it will be most generally
found that very bulky food is combined
with another of opposite properties.
Hence roots, the most bulky of all kinds
of food, are used along with oil-cake or
=bean-meal; and if, from any circum-
stances, it becomes necessary to replace
a large amount of roots by the latter
substance, the deficient bulk must be
replaced by hay or straw.-Boston
Herald.

MY LEGACY.

A rare and priceless legacy
me fair. sweet summer left to me:
Pare Djctures, gems, think them all,
Which have hung on memory's wall
And in my heart the summer lives
with all the joy that summer gives.
Green hill-sides dotted DER with trees,
Tall grasses bent with playful breeze,
wide meadows starred with daisies white,
And over all, the sunshine bright.
n winter has no power to chill
A heart that holds warm summer still
rut more than all its birds and flowers,
Far more than cen IT'S golden hours,
The gracious summer left to me,
In its most priceless legacy,
A sweet true love, which can not die,
However cold the winters sky!
Close In my heart hold the gift
which from my life all clouds will lift.
Topether love and / recall
the pictures hung on memory's wall.
Nv little love, with sweet brown eyes,
who came to me meath summer skies.
The golden hours were bright to me
()nly when they were shared with thee;
The flowers seemed sweetest and most fair
when thou their beauty deigned to wear.
And now my heart forever lives
Mid all the joys that summer gives.
