MAKING PARADISE,

EDITOR BULLETIN: - 1t seems
strange to me that so few people out
side of Honolulu try to beautify
their places by planting fruit and
ornamental. trees, also in raising the
necessary vegetables for daily use.
| think Mr.. Jaeger in his article in
the Planters Monthly was quite
right, that with little exertion and
some money spent, nearly every
spot, providing you have the neces-
sary water, could be made quite a
little paradise. And l am happy to
say that on our side of the Pail there
are some people that have done so
and are still doing it. Our school
teacher, for instance, Mr.. +. Hore,
has lately planted the school lot with
q number of valuable foreign trees,
palms, pines and fruit trees, which
one of our residents, Mr.. James
Olds, has kindly furnished and
assisted in planting. After looking
at the various trees that had been
planted 1 visited the school and wit
messed few of the exercises of the
pupils and was highly delighted with
the progress they had made in their
English under the careful training
of their efficient teacher.

the document, following upon the
Bracket affidavit, caused general
change of opinion in favor Of Sharon.

into which he had walked. Tyler
explained that he had written Cum
pePs signature, with Gumpel's CON-
sent. Several others knew of the
trick and Tyler's clerk took it from
the Office and sold it for S25, 900 of
Sharon's money which Barnes paid
in his own house. How the case
will end now, nobody can have the
least conception. More and inter-
minable intricacies, more suits and
countersuits, more lying and perjury,
more disgusting details to be dragged
into daylight. Where will it end?
1t is impossible to say, when the two
leading counsel descend to such
means to gain an end-the one to
manufacture, and connive at the
selling of, a fraudulent document
the other to purchase what he be-
lieved to be stolen property. 1t is a
disgrace to the legal profession that
such men should be allowed to prac-
tise. The Bar Association will, on
Saturday, consider Tyler's actions
but nothing has been said of Barnes.
1t is case of six and half-a-dozen.
Sharon has lost S25, 900 and Tyler's
clerk Mclaughlin has got it, and
says he intends to keep it. Barnes
paid the money for certain docu-
ment which he obtained, and which
Mclaughlin did not represent as
genuine. No language can express

A sKllEuL SURGICAL OPERATION.

The American Ambassador at Vienna,
Mr.. Kasson, has lately forwarded to his
Government an interesting account of a
remarkable surgical operation lately
performed by Professor Billroth, of
Vienna, which, wonderful to tell, con-
sisted in the removal of portion
of the human stomach, involving
nearly one-third of the organ-and,
strange to say, the patient recovered
the only successful operation of the
kind ever performed. The disease for
which this operation was performed
was cancer of the stomach, attended with
the following symptoms The appetite
is quite poor. There is peculiar indies.

ing that has been described as a faint
"aH gone" sensation; a sticky slime col

faint sensation; but, on the contrary, il
appears 10 aggravate the feeling. The
eyes are sunken, tinged with yellow; the
hands and feet become cold and sticky

tired all the time, and sleep does not
seem TO give rest. After time the pa.
tient becomes nervous and irritable,

patient spits up food soon after eating,
sometimes in sour and fermented con.

Oftentimes there is palpitation of the
heart, and the patient fears he may have
heart disease. Towards the last the
patient is unable to retain any food

though this disease is indeed alarming

treated in proper manner. The safest
and best remedy for the disease is

cine vendors throughout the world, and
by the proprietors, A. j. White Nimit-

This Syrup strikes at the very founda-
ton of the disease, and drives it, root

NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN THE sHARo

NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN THE SHARON
The great excitement of the week
has been the wondrous disclosures
in the Sharon Case. On Monday,
18th inst, counsel were to present
their facts and arguments on which
the claims of the plaintiff for alimony
and counsel fees were to be decided
by Judge Sullivan. Barnes COM
mcnced the startling sensations by
reading an affidavit in which the fair

all her former evidence. She stated
plainly and positively that she is
wholesale Ear and perjurer, that
there was not word of truth in her
sworn evidence and that everything
was arranged for her by Sarah, who
wrote her part Of the play in book.
This wa. committed TO memory by
Nellie and sworn to as the truth.
Her present affidavit contains some
peculiarities that are worth noticing.
She says her memory is very defec.
tive and that after learning her part,
she was unable TO remember it and.
never could do so. Yet now she
remembers with perfect accuracy
every little detail of events that
happened III 1855. She describes
graphically the process of the for
geries of letters and the celebrated
contract, she recollects certain con-
versations and minutie that are
somewhat remarkable for self
asserted broken Bracket memory.
That she is an out and out liar is
world renowned, the only doubt is
when she lied the most--when giving
her testimony or when making her
affidavit. To substantiate the latter,
sARAu's wAsHERMAN
makes an affidavit, and, in pigeon
English, narrates how Nellie damped,
ironed and dried certain papers, and
how he assisted her. Strange to
say the writer of Johns affidavit
must have forgotten himself, or else
John suddenly acquired the English
language tolerably well, because, in
1.-The midst Of his pigeon talk, appear
occasional sentences of very good
English. Another graveyard scene
is decipted, as Sarah is said to
have buried her papers in her yard.
Sharon followed with an affidavit
denying all accusations IN toto,
acknowledging that he had recently
assisted the Bracket family with
money, and denying that he had
spent any money to procure or buy
witnesses or documents. After
Barnes had read all these lengthy
affidavits, the contents of which had
aroused considerable sensation in the
crowded court, his dynamite ex-

Decatur ann Review. !


An oft repeated remark is that the Re-
publican papers OF the country receive bet
ter support than the Democratic ones, and
that Republicans, as a class are greater
readers than Democrats. There is degree
of truth in it that is not generally under
stood and accounted for. As rule, upon
exactly equal terms, there is no reason why
a Democratic editor or publisher may not
work up as profitable q business as q Re-
publican. The matter of official patronage
cuts some figure, but not as much as is
often estimated. Very often to secure it,
the publisher must pander TO political inter-
ests that hamper ordinary business enter
prises. Very often the official organ must
remain silent when every honest and manly
purpose demands that it should speak out.
There is nothing this free people like so
much as truth and candor. Then again,
since the eXcitements of the war have passed
away, business men, who in the North are
largely Republican, have pretty generally
learned that advertising is purely a matter
of business. 1t is done to let the public
know what they are doing, what they
wish TO buy or what they want
to sell, and not merely to help this or that
newspaper man to living. They have
learned that Democratic dollars and Repub-
lican dollars are alike desirable. In county
like this, with population of $4,000 there
are not to exceed 1890 Republicans. To
about learned where to advertise, and so
have they everywhere. But what has told
most against the Democratic press of the
country, and in favor of the Republican
press, Is the agency of the General Govern
ment. 1t is not generally known that at al
most every postoffice in the country the
Government has one or more officials that
are agents, directly or indirectly for Repub-
lican papers. There is hardly a country
Postoffice in which there are not displayed
advertisements of Republican papers, and
there is a marked absence of those of Demo-
cratic ones. The men who have managed
and controlled the Postoffices for the past
twenty-four years have not been interested

interests have been in the other direction. If
a farmer comes in and expresses desire, or
probably he is asked, TO subscribe for city
paper the Postmaster can get such and such
an one for him. usually Republican
one, or with Republican leanings, but he
never has the blanks, conveniences or desire
to get a Democratic paper for him. So it is

ty They are thus led to read Republican

press that has been almost irresistible. The
Government may not have sanctioned it, but
1t has grown into common custom. The
Democratic press OF the country naturally
seek a change. Having won victory
they with good reason demand the
removal of Republican Postmas-
tiers, who, as class, have busted
themselves to interfere with their
business. They demand the appointment of
men who will not retaliate, but men who will
give them far chance in their struggle for
business. What portion of dry goods mer-
chants, grocerymen or men in any ordinary
line of business would succeed if they had
at every Postoffice, on every postal car a
paid Government agent in the interest of
their competitors? There are no other
classes of business men who would succeed
any better than Democratic newspaper men
with such agencies against them. This
agency business is phase of offensive parti-
sanship that ordinary men do not consider,
The United States mails and their agents
should be free from any faint of interfering

Grants First Fight.

History OF Clement County, Ohio.
When Grant was very young he attended
school with his cousin John, Canadian. who
had been sent over to the United States to be
educated. The two boys were warm friends,
but John had inherited predjudices against
our country which at times he could not
restrain, and his language often gave offense
TO young Grant.
One day they were talking about George
Washington. when John said:
1T appears TO me, Ulysses, you think a
great deal too much OF Washington
"And why shouldn't think well of him ~
replied the tanner boy. ''He Is the father of
my country, and was raised up by the Al
mighty to lead the people to independence. '
All very fine,' retorted John. ''but he was
traitor to his King nevertheless.

feet.
