WHEAT SBRDIVG = 1887.

The demand for my fertilizers has increased
from year to year, until from the manu- facture
and sale of few hundred tons in 1870, it
now amounts to many thousands of tons man
ufactured and sold annually. deem this the
most substantial proof of the estimation in
which my fertilizers stand with the largest
and most practical farmers of the country In
every section where my Fertilizers have ever
been introduced the demand has increased
steadily from year to year, new territory is
opened up each year, and wherever introduced
never fails 10 gain friends, who, when they
have tried it alongside Of any of the many
brands Of fertilizers now placed upon the
market, decide that the best is the cheapest in
the end, and buy regularly from year to year.
need only assure my customers that each
brand of my fertilizers is made of the same
materials which have been used for years, ana
that they are prepared in the usual way and
under my personal supervision.
ask again liberal share OF your patron
age. For the present season publish no GER
tiicates, prefering that my fertilizers should
stand or fall by their own record.
Respectfully, G. T. DUNLOP,

For the SENTINEL.
Rotation in Office.

Among the many great advantages accru.
ing TO the public from the republican, or
what is more popularity styled democratic
system of government, that is government
derived from the people with their consent,
there is none more important for the purity
and comfort of this method than the feature
Of rotation or change in public officials In
Europe, under Imperial government such
changes are contingent upon great national
commissions or the imperial will, and the
people have no redress from arrogance or
incapacity In the persons who perform pub
lie duties.
In this country, under the democratic
system, we have ample means of redress
from this inconvenience in our brief terms
of official incumbency. But such is the
proverbial good nature Of the American,
arising from our free institutions, that we
rarely apply the remedy even In aggravated
cases OF its need, which frequently results in
n chronic discomfort in the minds of the
people with our public affairs.
Rotation in Office is, politically, of rcla-
tive value to the public with the impartial
treatment of children in the same family to
the social comfort of the household. II any
one child is the recipient of more favored
treatment than the Others at the hands OF
Its parents 1t generally makes the favored
subject an object OF Jealousy and: discontent
to the others, whilst it has the effect TO breed
peevishness and arrogance in the person
thus excepted from the family.
Besides our age is eminently progressive,
and many Improvements and valuable ia.
cilities are suggesting themselves to the
minds of the public for expedition and dis
patch of business, and it is unwse to allow
the public affairs to drag along in old
grooves when new men and young men can
bring TO the service bright talents, polished
address, and tone Of the times, which has a
strong tendency to keep awake that cnthns.
iasm in public matters which is the soul of
American politics
In many cases public offices are filled by
persons who are not In any sense satislac-
tory to the public, and still they are sur.
rounded by sort of halo Of public courtesy
that makes their position seem quite impen-
etrable. This has the effect 10 damp the
political enthusiasm of others, for there is
very little chance OF reaching the honors OF
public preierment when the patronage of
the party is locked up in the interest OF in.
diyiduals, cliques or families.
Rotation in Office is the most wholesome
tonic that can be administered 10 the de.
Ginning interest In our local politics, and IL
is the only means &C securing that lively
which brings the best men 10
the front. II should be cngralted as doc.
trine, and then aspiants for political pre-.
lerment would realize that the Office was
trust confided in the successful candidates by
their ielow'cltizens, not 10 be monopoized
in any sense, but to be administered In a
business point of view and personally In
such manner as 10 be satisfactory % the
public: This would, | believe, have salu.
AIRY effect. OTHELLo.

The examination OF Cunningham and
Burton, charged with causing the recent
explosions in the tower Of London, was
continued on Mond,y, Burton declined
the aid OF counsel, and said he would de-
fend himself. The government changed
the charge against the prisoners to high
treason-fclcny, u capital crime. Mr. Poland,
crown counsel, declared that the heatlquar-
tiers Of the conspiracy in which the prisoners
were engaged was In America 1t would
be shown that men came from America to
London bringing with them dynamite with
the Atlas brand. Cunningham, continued
Mr.. Poland, has been in England before.
He came 10 England in May, 1884, and was
here when the Scotland yard explosions &C.
CURED. Burton was in England from March
until September, 1884 The explosions ut
the Cover street station on the underground
railway in London occurred ON January Q,
1885, short time after both Burton and
Cunningham arrived The train which ar
rived at the time Of the explosions, started
from Aldgaie, and both prisoners lived at
the time but short distance from Aldgate.
1t would be shown that the men were on
that train, and were active in causing that
explosion.

W. l.. G. APPLEBY, Esq.-Dear Sir | take
much pleasure in stating that my wife is high
ly pleased wit4 your Washing Machine which
bought of you. She would not part with
it for anything in reason. You may feel as
sured that the "Success' is, and will be, a
perfect success. It does all that you claim
for it.
When a Washing Machine takes out the
dirt it does all that should be expected. 1t
fills the bill. And when it does the work in
less than one-half the time, with less than
half the labor, and such labor as can be
found in almost any family, and with less
than half the wear and tear of clothes as the
process of washing by hand does, all of
which can justly be claimed by the machine,
any one can readily see that the Success"
is clear saving TO the average family OF two
or three times the price OF the machine.
Besides all this, one avoids the bother of
class Of demoralized labor which is found in
the washer-woman of the nineteenth century j.
Very truly, &c. JOHN S. BELT.

Sir The Success Washing Machine that
bought of you proves to be the best washer
ever saw. Itdoes the work easily, quickly
and better than BY any other process. Before

made TO wash clean without tearing and rub
bling the clothing 10 pieces. But when saw
the SUCCESS do it perfectly and without in
