The rise and fall OF peach-raising in New
England has always been au interesting
chapter in fruit culture, and 1t becomes
still more ia view OF recent developments.
Middle.aged people who were rare in the
lower half of New ENGLAND can remember
when peach orchards were both common
and productive in all that region. Indeed,
forty years ago the fruit was 80 abundant
in the forming regions around Hartford
that the local market was overstocked and
farmers often "fed it OUT to their swine.
Even further north, in the Connecticut
Valley, at that period peaches OF fine
quality were produced in abundance. But
gradually some mysterious disease swept
through the orchards, and the trees either
died out or bore no fruit that was worth
eating. At last the native peach almost
disappeared from New England, and that
region became dependent upon Delaware.
But Just as the Yankees had concluded
that 1t was hopeless for them to think Of
raising the fruit, they were surprised to
find that peach trees were beginning to
thrive again, and for some years past they
have been growing to produCtiveness, until
now ons may find almost as large and good
Connecticut peaches in the Hartford mar
ket as in 1910, and it looks as though they
might before long become as common as
in the old days. The interesting question
now is whether the renaissance OF the New
England peach is to prove permanent, or
whether in the course OF few years it
will suffer another decline.

While couple OF gentlemen were driv-
ing past Hotiman's woods yesterday they
noticed large volumes OF smoke issuing
from a frame building located about the
middle Of the woods. Curiosity led them
to investigate who the occupants were,
and to their surprise horse was found in
the farthest corner, hemmed in by fam
ing fire which was burning fierceiy in the
middle Of the floor. The horse was well
nigh overcome by the smoke, and while
being led out staggered and would
have fallen had one OF the res
Cuers not held him up and
after great exertion pushed him out OF
harms way. 1t was found impossible to
get the horse out entirely as he finally
sank to the ground when the humane
gentlemen busted themselves extinSuish-
ing the flames. This done the animal
shortly recovered. Who the owner OF the
beast Is could not be learned tits thought
that tramps had been using the building
and had built FIRE, which burned low.
While in this condition the horse must
have wandered in and the flames breaking
ont again was prevented from getting out.
Head it not been for the timely arrival OF
the gentlemen mentioned above the barn
would have been entirely destroyed and
the horse doubtless burned TO death.

Itmay bU that the Democrats Of Ohio
and Of other States will learn something
by what has Just happened. The Lesson
OF tho Democratic defeat is that no party
can safely defy the people. The end does
not always come in two years, butt comes
and in these days Of free.hand voting
when men do good deal OF their own
thinking, the people are likely to seize an
early opportunity to enter a telling pro-
test.
It was the misfortune Of the we'll in
clined Democrats Of Ohio tina! they we're
unable to control their party, and it has
been their further misfortune to have
suffered in common with other citizens
and Taxpayers. When the Democrats
found Themselves in possession OF the State
government-its Legislative, Executive
and Judicial branches-they at once en-
tered upon the defiant policy which now
has brought them down. They took'lib-
critics with State funds and soon converted
comfortable Treasury balance into very
large figures on the other side OF the &C.
count
The upsettiug otthe Scott liquor law by
the partisan Supreme Court'at- the COM
mand of party managers, proved to be as
unsatisfactory to large element OF the
liouor men as it was to those persons who
had grown tired OF the prolitless policy OF
free whisky, who demanded some regula'
ton oil the liquor traffic and were OF the
opinion that the time had come to make
that traffic bear some part OF the heavy
burden it imposes on the State.
The proceedings OF the General Assem-
bly, have rarely il ever been tq1aled in
riotous demonstrations and general shame
lessness by any ather Legislative body. The
public institutions were conducted on the
low grade OF mere partisan machines, I'M
der cover OF which misconduct shrewd and
conscienceless men lined their pockets at
public expense. The public sale OF a seat
in the United States Senate-knocked
down to the highest bidder-was an early
and, notorious scandal for which no party
could hope to escape punishment in a
State Of so much intelligence and virtue
as Ohio.
The very peculiar decision that money
taken under an unconstitutional law was
not unlawfully taken and therefore was
not 10 be refunded, impressed the liquor
men as remarkable article Of justice.
But they knew that they had paid the
money and were not to see it again, and
they struck back with their ballots.
The Ohio Democracy boldly challenged
the public opinion-went out OF its way to
aGront public Eentiment-and retribution
came, swift and terrible. The power OF a
Wholesome public feeling has never been
shown more iorcefully. The people have
had their way in spite Of the prestige Of e
national Democratic victory and the liberal
employment OF national patronage in be-
half OF the party.

Some Profane Proceedings.

ldhktOn I'rCf6 ana DuGOiIdn.
Daring the past two days and nights a
series OF dams have been constructed along
Walnut street which have impeded the
Rhineward flow OF the water from the
Raymond House artesian well. These
dams have been surreptitiously removed,
but shortly following their removal they
would occur again, in aquiet way, and the
street has now become considerably agi-
tated over theae proiane proceedings. One
element says dam it will, and the other
says dam it you won't. And 80 they go on
damming and undermining and the
aqueous flow is becoming considerably
confused and uncertain where TO go and
how long 10 stay. Several theories are
anoat regard these mysterious happenings,
but one which establishes an effort to
produce slack water navigation on Walnut
street must be rejected on account Of its
impracticabiIity. The theory that the
scheme is to cause the water TO run back
into the well and lose itself in the bowels
Of the earth is an absurdity in it's realiza-
ton, but perhaps not so much so in its
conception, as the Water Committee Is
not entirely familiar with the habits Of
the element with which it is dealing.

"Appouls 10 sectional Passious."


In commenting on the result OF the Ohio
elections and the causes that contributed
to the success OF the Republican ticket
the New York Times says: As concerns
national matters, Mr.. sherman's narrow
and violent appeals to sectional passion
were Offset by Democratic claims that the
control OF the Federal offices bad been
given them for campaign purposes"
1t is very hard in these later days to tell
Just what the Times is in regard to politics.
II Senator Sherman's speeches in favor OF
free ballot and fair count in the South
were narrow the editorial mind OF the
Times must be so contracted that it cannot
see an appeal for justice in the remarks
that were made by the Ohio Senator dur
ing the campaign.
This must not be called waving the
bloody shirt. The mission OF the Repub.
lican party will never have been fulfilled
until the right to vote and have that vote
counted is guaranteed to every citizen in
the South, be he white or colored Re-
publican. Senator Sherman maintained
these views on the stump, and his argu-
ments had effect on fair-minded men in
both parties. Z.
Look ut the spectacle that is presented
to the voters in Virginia. There the DEM
ocratic candidate for Governor is riding
through the State on the saddle Of his
uncle Robert L. Lee, escorted by a body
guard Of cavalry men in Confederate uni
form. Perhaps the small mind oil tho
Times is not equal to comparisons OF this
kind. 1t would be wonderful il it was
since it has lost its Republican intelligence.

In the editorial columns of the Tel

in the number bearing date August

ence to a remarkable cure of rheuma-
tiSm by Swift's Specific;
ave know a gentleman in this
county who, six months ago, was
almost a hopeless cripple from an at
tack of rheumatism. He could
scarcely hobble across the room, used
crutches, and said himself that he
had little hope Of ever Vering.
We saw in our town last week, walk
ing about as lively as any other man,
and in the finest health and spirits.
Upon our inquiry as to what had
worked such wonderful change in
his condition, he replied that Swift's
Specific had cured him. He said he
was on the eve ofstarting for the Hot
Springs in search of relief, but was
persuaded by one OF his neighbors to
try Swift's Specific, and after using
a dozen and a half bottles, he has
been transformed from miserable
cripple to happy, healthy man.
He is one of our most worthy and
successful citizens, and is none other
than Mr.iE. B. Lambert.
