only thing the country knows of Mr..
Manning is that he is a. shrewd, sue
cessful and INSCRIPTIONS political
manager. It does not know that he
ever devoted an hour to the study of
finance. 1t does know that he has
never been outside of New York and
that he has no conception of the great
Mississippi and Missouri valleys or
their needs and capabilities. The
treasury is by far the most important
of any of the departments, as far as the
business interests of the country are
concerned, and no man ought to have
control of it who SIS not thoroughly
conversant with the resources and re-
quirements of the whole country.
Another proof of the anti-monopo-
ly (?) tendencies Of the new admins
tration is the appointment of VIM. C.
Whitney, another New York man, to
the Navy portfolio. In his own state
Mr.. Whitney is somewhat known as a
lawyer. The country at large never
heard of him until few days ago, and
all it has learned since then is that he
is the son-in-law of Standard Oil
Payne.
Mr.. Endicott, who has been given
charge of the war department, is an
other lawyer whom the country never
heard of, but who seems to have been
appointed as half way recognition of
the Mugwump element. The appoint
ment of Mr.. Bayard to the State de-
partment is as good as could have been
made, while little criticism can be pass
ed upon the appointments of Lamar,
Garland and Villas.
Among the democrats themselves
the chiefcriticism made upon the for
nation of the cabinet is its geographic
cal distribution. Out of the seven
members two are from New York and
three from the solid south. A promi-
nent Washington democrat remarked
that cleveland don't know that there
is anything of this country except
New York and little of the South, !"
and he came near stating the truth,

THE NEW LAW

The new liquor law will be found in
full on the sixth page of this issue. A
perusal of it will show that it makes
some very radical changes in the old
law. One change that will be gener-
ally considered a good one, is in a pro-
vision that any one may obtain liquor
of a druggist, without prescription,
on his own statement that it is needed
for mechanical, scientific or medical
purposes, and is not intended for a
beverage. The law confers extraordi-
nary powers upon the county attor-
ney, makes grand jury, judge and
executioner of him in fact, and is in
other ways extremely severe. 1t is
not so severe however that any man
need be afraid of it who does not want
to buy or sell intoxicating liquors for
unlawful purposes. If you let whisky
alone the law will let you alone. That
the new law will prove more eff
fective than the old one is already
shown by the fact that the Atchison
saloons, which have never befor
closed their doors, are all moving over
to the Missouri side of the river.
1t might be added for the consolation
of some of our Humboldt friends who
have been quietly skipping to all the
ends of the earth for fear of the grand
jury, that no prosecution can now be
had for violations of the old law. The
new law prescribes new penalties for
the offenses for which these men were
to be tried, and repeats the old ones,
and as no er post Jdcto proceedings can
be had in our courts, the prosecuting
attorney is obliged to dismiss all the
old cases. We hope the old offenders
will read the new law carefully, and
after they have done SO, we hope they
will come to the conclusion to ego, and
sin no more" There is.no use talking
about trying to keep the whisky traffic
in Kansas alive any longe-. "It's eyes
are sot." The saloon must 60.

THE NEW CABINET.

Whether Mr.. Cleveland's first step
has been mistake, time alone must
prove. But the prinaa .facie case is
against him. Almost the only demo-
cratic criticism of republican admins
tration that we have ever considered
well founded or worthy of attention,
has been that the republicans have
given New York the control of the
treasury. Democratic strikers, of high
and low degree, have everywhere pro-
claimed that the election of a demo-
cratic president would take the finan-
ces of the country out of the hands OF
the money sharks. But what do we
see? Daniel Manning is Mr.. Cleve-
lands secretary of the treasury. The

An inquirer asks the country Gentle
man for the comparative advantages of
the different modes for destroying the
codling worm, the great enemy of the
apple crop. 1t is replied that there are
three remedies, all of which have merit,
the paper bands the least. Large num-
bers of the insects are caught under
these bands. but often a larger number
escape. Where practicable to employ
sheep, they prove an efficient protection,
provided they are in sufficient numbers
to keep the fallen fruit promptly de
voured, and provided also that they are
kept in the orchard year after year
through the summer months. Where
sheep cannot be turned in, the paris
green remedy has proved very efficient
one, and both may be used together if
the sheep are not admitted until copious
rains have washed away all the poison
that has fallen on the grass during the
operation. In cases where this remedy
has not succeeded, it has been owing to
want of thorough and repeated spray
ing at the right time. After the poison
has done its work in destroying tho mi.
mute young Larvae. the summer rains
wash off all that remains.
