The assurance that John Sherman will
be returned to the United States Senate
makes it certain that his scheme for limit
ing representation from Southern States,
according to the freedom allowed to voters
there, will be made especially prominent
in Congress. MIR. Sherman proposes that
the principle of representation shall apply
only where it guarantees the full and free
exercise of the rights of citizenship that
have not been forfeited by criminal acts.
This viii be in one sense waving the
bloody shirt, but it is certain to call to its
support all old-line Republicans who be-
lieve that grevious mistake was made in
not guaranteeing to the black man, from
the day of emancipation, the full exercise
of his rights as an enfranchised citizen

" JONES, of Binghamton," is booming y
upon the Democratic ticket in New York
as the hero who led the regiment that was
assaulted in Baltimore on the outbreak of
The war. 1t now turns out that he was not
there. Lieutenant-C Colonel Folansbee was
in command of the companies who made
the bloody march, and Jones, with the ad-
vance guard, was safely beyond the danger
point. Thus is another idol shattered.

THERE is chatter about bargain being
in process of incubation for the purchase
by the United States Government of the
northern tier of Mexican States. We do
not believe there is any reliance to be
placed upon it. The Administration is
not so foolish as to enter into any annex
alton scheme. Congress would not give It's
consent. The people do not ask for more
territory. We have more now than we
need or can govern we'll We want no
population added to our burdens such as
the States in question contain.

THE San Francisco Post remarks that
the laws delay could be much shortened
by breaking up the practice of placing the
convenience of attorneys above the inter-
ests of litigants. Granting postponements
to oblige lawyers who are overburdened
with business, or who pretend to be, is a
weakness of the American bench which
gives good ground for complaint" An
eminently correct judgment.

SAYS the Examiner: "When an unfit
man happens to squeeze through the bars

what thunders of anathema go up from the
opposition press" Oh, no; all the thun-
dering has been done by the Democratic
President, who has been so frequently i'm
posed upon by his own partisans that he
has come to look with suspicion upon every
Democratic signature, petition and in
dorsement presented to him. The "oppo-

racy have all the rope it wants.

A RISKY CusroM.-The Nevada 7ranscvf

A RISKY CUSToM.-The Nevada Transcript
of October 18th says:
The sad experience of old man Puder,
whose cache of $3.50, representing the saw
ings of lifetime, was found and relieved
of its treasure by thief, ought to prove a
warning to people who are in the habit of
being their own bankers. But the lesson,
like most of its kind before, will be thrown
away Many men and women will go on
hiding their jewelry and money down eel
lar and up garnet, in stovepipes, in barns,
behind pictures, beneath carpets and beds,
and in hundreds of other such places where
smart robbers hunt for spoils, and they will
go on losing their possessions till the I'M
dertaker hides them in box. No one can
form an idea of the wealth thus secreted
around Nevada City, for instance. but it
must aggregate tens of thousands of dollars
II is in constant jeopardy.

The action taken by the public meeting
at the Courthouse on Thursday evening,
concerning the cottony cushion scale, was
wise, and in contrast with the culpable
neglect which is witnessed at other places.
shows that our citizens have the intelli-
gence and public spirit to promptly meet
and dispose of any and all matters which
endanger the welfare of the city. The ac-
ton of the Mayor and City Trustees in call
ing the meeting, and now pledging the
necessary funds to thoroughly exterminate
the pest, is most commemorate, and will be
warmly Endorsed and appreciated BY every
resident of the city. The selection by the
meeting of Matthew Cooke to carry out the,
work was far the best that could be made
and it is to be earnestly hoped that his
health, which has been SO greatly impaired
by rheumatism for several months past as
to contine him to his home, and much OF
the time to his bed, will permit him to take
this matter in hand, and promptly carry it
to successful end. No one else could do
it so well, nor would take so great interest
in doing it.

RAISED ON THE FARM.

Born and raised on the farm A
boy should thank God for being so
fortunate as to be born and raised on
the farm. There is no place on this
green earth SO well adapted to per-
fectly develop mind, muscle and
manhood as farm; there boy has
the purest air, the freshest and health
lest food, plenty of restricted exer-
else, the brightest sunshine, and the
soundest sleep the very conditions
necessary for the highest develop
ment. Nine-tenths of all the men who
have made their mark in any business,
profession or pursuit have been born
and raised on the farm; this is not 50
much because there is better blood
on the farm. but because the sur
roundings of farm lite are better cal
culated to cali out what there is in
boy, and develop full-grown.

sow GRAIN.

Many of our readers doubtless re-
member that few years ago the inn
mense oat crop proved to be the help
that tided our farmers over period
of great depression. Notwithstand-
ing the present year has been ex-
tremely favorable to the production
of corn and large crop has been
made, yet the crop has not been gath
cred, and the recent unfavorable
weather has been more or less dam
aging to the same. The coupling of
these facts suggests the propriety of
our farmers providing for emergen-
cies when opportunities offer, and the
opportunity is now, for them to plant
small grain. All the available land
and available time could not, it seems
TO US, be more judiciously apprOpri-
ated than to that of sowing wheat
and oats Most failures in small grain
crops in this latitude are attributable
TO the fact that these crops are plant
ed too late in the season. Small grain,
and especially oats, sown now, will
be in much better condition to with
stand the severe freezes of winter
than if sown late in the fall.
Again the idea so often advanced
by farmers that it is cheaper to buy
-four than to obtain it from cultiva-
ton of wheat is evidently delusion,
which delusion will be proven to any
one who will bring to bear upon it
the real facts. When we buy -four
We get twenty-four pounds from a
bushel of wheat, whereas when we
grow the wheat on our farms we re-
alize fifty pounds in -four, shorts and
bran, from a bushel of wheat. Now
the question is will the fourteen
pounds Of -four, two pounds of shorts
and ten pounds of bran compensate
us for the labor expended in produc-
ing the bushel of wheat? Besides
the.wheat producer has the gleanings
of the wheat field for his stock at a
season when such pasturage is most
opportune.
Furthermore, to support this theory
of grain production we have these
additional facts to-wit, that grain
crops are not such exhausters of the
soil as cotton and that the small grain
crop is about the only crop out of
which it is possible for us to realize
money in the early summer, season
when farmers usually need money.
We may be laboring under an hal
lucination, but it does seem that it
would be a more prosperous and eco
nomical policy for our farmers to re-
alize little money from the sale of
small grain in the month of June,
than to realize it from land mortga-
ges on their homes at twelve per cent.
interest. BE this as it may We are
satisfied that farmers never lose any
thing by rotating their crops and
grain crops come in very opportune-
ly to aid in the rotating plan. Hence
We hope our farmers will embrace the
present season and SOW largely in
grain; and this hope is prompted by
an earnest desire to see our county
continue prospecting and to prosper,
and every farmer in it Independent
and financially comfortable Camp

THE RASPBERRY.

For propagation of the best plants
we have, now is the time to bury the
tips of the canes under enough good
soil to prevent disturbance by the
winds, or by freezing and thawing.
These tips will soon root, and furnish
good young plants for setting as ear
ly in the spring as the condition of
the ground will admit Set in rows,
six feet apart in the row. Let but
one cane grow the first year, and
when at the height of twelve to fif-
teen inches, pinch back. Prevent
the growth Of weeds by frequent stir
rings of the ground. The second and
each successive year, three or four
canes may be allowed to grow, and
care should be taken that they are
pinched back, say to twenty inches
or little more. This pinching back
should be done just at the time the
cane attalns this height. There will
be but few fruit bearing later, also if
the canes are allowed to grow to
thirty inches and then cut back to
twenty. The third and each sue
cessive spring, cut the laterals back
to within five or ten inches of the
cane, and at the same time remove
the canes that bore the previous year.
1t is the practice, with some fruit
growers, to remove the canes as soon
as the fruit is gathered; but a we'll
known Indiana grower thinks it bet
ter to allow them to grow until
spring, that they may be a stay and
protection to the new growth.
