I heard Pat DOMAIN make speech at
the Mexican editors banquet Monday
night at the Palmer House. Law
bless my soul, but he made those raft
ers ring. Woman was his theme, and
he did her up in Il gilt edged package
rs big as section of land in his loved
home of the Dakotas. Those Mexi-
cans, by the way, are charming gentle
men. They're the politest men | ever
met, next to the Corean and japanese
Ambassadors. We don't grow that
kind on United States soil. They car
nv themselves as lofty as lords, but bow
to earth when you do them kindly
turn. Such people as that are worth
entertaining When little Miss Fritch,
OF St Louis, sang the Mexican national
hymn between the toasts at the BAN
quet, those Mexican fellows simply
gathered the smilax and roses from
every table in the hall and laid them
at her feet. They clapped their
hands and flashed their ewes and show
cred her with "bravos.S Then they
crowned her with wreaths and acted
like men enraptured. Who ever saw
an American audience get upon its
nerve like that?
Some OF them, as I've told you be-
fore, are 4men with history" The
President of the party, Paz, is a duelist
of note-not because he had to be. He
is the quietest looking man OF the lot.
He hardly ever smiles but moves with
a steady dignity. He looks perfectly
harmless, though he has fought for his
life and loved ones in several revolu-
tions, and when an enemy challenged
him-I've forgotten the challengers
name-he politely besought him not to
fight, telling him---that is. Paz told him,
/ mean-that he was such dead sure
shot that he should certainly kill him
ii he insisted on the duel, but the clial-
lenger still insisted, and Paz was as
good as his word. He shot him as dead
IS herring. They have to do it--so
I'm told-beneath those sunny skies
where hot blood has its sway.

Democracy VS.. The Independents.
Volo,,a,, Dasr;ofo,.

The criticisms of the American on
the article of Judge Green in the Cum
berland Presbyterian Of last week on
independent thought and voting, have
created considerable STIR, The idea
of the American is that every man
must be democrat if he is truly loyal
to the interests of the country, and
that the American, or at least the leatl-
ers must be allowed to say what is true
Democracy and what is not. The
American would read every man out
of the party who proposes to have an
individual opinion and to assert it. 1t
does worse than to read out-it propo-
ses to drive them out or whip them
IN.
The Banner and Union. and the
Memphis Avalanche, have ali come to
Judge Green's rescue, and they have
made quite n stir.
Judge Green is not politician, but
he is man of intelligence and good
sense, and he is speaking the senti-
ments of the thinking people. The
party lash is worn out, and unless the
effcrt is discontinued to force men into
measures by calling them bad names
and questioning their motives, the ma
jority of the Democratic party will be
less than it has been.
Judge Green, and with him the peo-
pie generally, are in favor of organiza-
ton and union of effort. The only
way to preserve our institutions OF
liberty in their purity is by party or
CARNATIONS and strict concert OF action;
but the people must form the organi-
zation and direct the party, ami not
the party direct the people. Wemust
that this government is for
the people4andsl met the people for the
II a few a0o,ld be leaders
and machine politicians, get together
and propose to lay down the principles
upon which everybody must stand,
and name the men that must be voted
for, then we will have Independents,
and the best men IN the country will
be among them. The principles-upon
which the'party is to stand and the
men who are to fill our offices must be
all right if we are to have increased
Democratic majorities.

Saving Glover Need.
To the Chronicle

40 the Chronlcle.
| A few Suggestions to the farmers
about saving clover seed, which may
be appreciated by some who have nc
experience in sowing it, may not be
out of place.
In the first place, sow your seed
thick, say Il gallons per acre. The
next year cut first crop any time from
18th Of May to 18th of June; this win
make you good hay crop. It will
pay to cut it and let it rot ON the
ground if you don't need the hay, in
order to scatter seed. The second crop
makes the seed sufficient to pay for
hulling, and should be cut when at
least three-fourths of the heads are
ripe, OF dark or brown color. A self
rake reaper is best to cut with, but we
generally have to use the mower. In Il
dry time, all that you can cut by 2 or
8 o'clock can be raIled and shocked
the same evening. If it gets very dry,
SO that it skaters out, or the stems
break, it will be best to rake it late in
the evening, or next morning before
the dew gets off. If you can secure Il
huller, it is best to haul from the win
row to the huller;' if you cannot, stack
or rick it, and be sure to cap it off
well with straw; timothy or herds
grass hay is best BY saving the seed
properly from good stand of clover,
you can get from two to four bushels
per acre, which will make more clear
money than crop of wheat, unless
you get over 15 bushels of wheat per
acre. We can save all our seeds if we
only Try. We can get from 10 to 20
bushels Of orchard grass seed per acre,
and why not do it. We pay from $1.20
to 50 per bushel for seed.
A word about hulling. Your clover
dry and a fair crop of seed, you can
hull and clean ready for market from
20 to go bushels per day. If it is
about seven hands are suffi-
cient to do all the work. No one can
afford to run a huller if he has to
thresh half bushes and grass to get
few clover seed. | have saved my own
seed for several years. In '83 | bought
a hulIer, (the Victor, which is the best
one made,) and hulled for my neigh
bors about 400 bushels, which saved
for them at least $1,000.

There always have been, and ever will
be, demagogues, self-selected leaders
of the laboring classes, whose sole aim
in life is to secure glory and fortune
for themselves by misleading and mis-
guiding their fellowmen; men who
live from the turmoil and trouble OF
strikes, lock-outs and war between
capital and labor. Peace and pros
perity in business and manufacture,
times of plenty of work and good wa
ges, are death to them; they are plaus-
ibie, specious and full of high-sound-
ing phrases and ideas OF the oppression
of monopolies, the dignity OF laziness
and the importance of their doing
nothing but instructing the laborer
and living off his hard earnings, every
dollar OF which his family needs. How
it is that honest, intelligent mechanics
and men of industry are led to believe
in these people is mystery beyond
our ken. To the sober, prudent, econ
omical mechanic or laborer the abol-
ition of law and moral restraint means
anarchy and destruction. A good,
firm, well managed government is their
protection, and such men should know
and believe that communism is de-
struction and law is the true liberty.

A printer stood at the desk OF bust
ness man the other day and noticed
him using letter and bill heads which
he had bought ofsa New York or Buf-
faio house. Said the printer, who was
a customer: "What would you think
of me il / should 90 to New York and
buy line of goods for myself and
family!p The merchant replied Il
would think you fool when | know
you get the same goods just as cheap
of me andIalso aid fellow-citizen."
When the printer called his attention
to the important letter and bill heads,
the merchant coughed and walked up
behind the counter to wait on a Gus
toner. And the same merchant, just
the day before, asked the printer to
give him a free puff about his big
stock of new goodsl When bills from
the paper mill and type foundry come
in and the wages of employees become
due, the printer thought of these
things. Local bankers, bakers, dry
goods merchants, grocers, druggists,
and other business men sholud think
of the above facts sometimes.

This has been forced lesson, like some of
