Hogs should be pushed In mod.

BILE, as the weather, AZ we'll as the
feed, has much to do in this matter.
II hogs cannot have grass, especial
" clover, then vegetables OF some
kind are necessary for quick work.
Pumpkins or squashes are excel.
emit and II you have not these,
beets and carrots are the next best;
potatoes, ruta6agas or turnips are
the lowest in value, but they are
better than none. Every farmer
should be provided with pumpkins,
squashes, beets or carrots for hog
fattening.
II you would make nice hams
and bacon, mix your corn with oats
or barley and grind two-thirdl
corn and one barley or oats. This
class Of feed will render the meat
tender and juicy, streaking lean
and fat. II, however, you want fat
pork for sailing and barreling, then
corn alone Is best to do the work.

Some remarkable photographs Of a

Elimination Of an electric SPARK, have
been secured by Prof. E. Mach, Of
Prague. He has also photographed the
air streams which one may see over o

has even obtained pictures Of waves Of

q method in which advantage is taken
of the irregular refraction of light by
the waves set in vibration by sound

RANpALL,S EKASION.

Mr.. Randall makes the point in support
of his tariff bill, that the production OF
taxation" which the Democratic national
convention pledged itself to secure re-
ierred to a reduction OF iuternal revenue
tax; therefore, in proposing to do away
with s26, 900, 0OO Of the tax on whisky and
tobacco he is carrying out the promises
OF the Democratic platform. He sustans
himself in this position by quoting from
the platform this sentence; owe de-
nounce the Republican party for having
failed to relieve the people from crushing
war taxes" The luternal-revenue tax Is
war tax, and this must have been what
the Democrats meant when they promised
u reduction OF taxation, says Mr.. Randall;
But every sensible man knows that this
Ia absurd. Nobody has understood that
the Democratic platform offered to repeal
trary, they were pledged to the payment
Of pensions and other expenses growing
out of the war. The promise was eX-
plicitly made to "revise the tariff in a
spirit of fairness to all interests" and to
reduce taxation-tariff taxation Of
eourse--to such point as that the re-
ceipts therefrom would only cover the ex-
penses of the government, honestly adj
miulstered, Any other construction put
upon the tariff plank of the platform is
known to be false Randall himself
knows it to be false, but he uses the
miserable subterfuge that he does, be-
cause there is nothing else to be said in
support OF his bin.

TIE PENSION HUMBuG.

A disgraceful admission of disreputable
practice Is MADE by the house committee
on invalid pensions. 1t is proposed, so
the news reports say, to consider the
presidents veto messages concerning GER
tain pension bills, "and to select the
strongest aud most meritorious cases and
make an attempt to pass the bills over his
yetoes.n
That means, then, that some OF the bills
are not meritorlous, and cannot be passed
over the presidents vetoes. II such is
the case, why were they passed in the
first placer The same Information that
led the president to veto the bills was &C
cessihle to the congressman who voted
for them, Now these congressman
tacitly confess that some OF the pension
cases were not merltorious, and such are
TO be dropped, and those that are thought
TO make the best showing are 10 be
pushed to vote over the veto. II they
were not deserving Of a favorable vote
why were these bills passed. and II they
were so deserving, why are they nov
dropped, with the exception OF only few
that are to be pushedY
Voting away the peoples money is
very serious matter, which honorabl,
congressman regard as trivial, as long a,
It catches votes for them. II is so nov
that any man who can make out an ex
lparte case Of having had the least hur
while in the army is put on the pension
rolls and supported by the government
Pension Commissioner Dudley declared
that fully onethlrd Of the men now get
ting on tho rolls are frauds and undeserv
ing OF government aid Why are no
these frauds detected and exposed D,
J congress or the pension soryicel
We have now president who Is not !
demagogue, and is not afraid to take 4
stand against these cormorants and hum,
bugs. We will see If congress is weak
and pusillanimous enough to override his
vetoes at the threat Of the pension agents
and fraudulent applicants.

Estate of the Leader of Demi- Monde of
New Orleans Claimed by the state.
Special TO the Gazette. .
NEW ORLEANS, La, June 30.-The
district court has finally decided the cele-
brated Kate Townsend case in favor OF
the state, declaring it the only heir of the
lil-gotten fortune OF that notorious cour-
tesan, the undisputed queen of the New
Orleans demi-monde. Kate was murdered
nearly two years ago by Troisville Sykes,
whose mistress she was supposed to be.
He proved himself to have been her hus-
band for twenty years, and showed her
will in his favor. After he
was acquitted of her murder, on
the ground OF self-defense, he prosecuted
his claim to her large estate, valued at q
quarter OF million, Fearing an adverse
decision, he seized all the iewelry, worth
| $780, 900, and fed 10 Mississippi, outside
OF the jurisdiction OF the court, where be
| has been ever since. Three parties
claimed the property a Califol
mia woman named Tully, VINO claimed tC
be a sister OF the deceased, and the state
OF Louisiana, which claimed the estate
on the ground that the deceased left nj
heirs. The decision to-day sustains thi,
view. Sykes, having murdered Kate
Townsend, could not be her heir, the
court sand, while the Tully woman failed
TO show her relationship. Much of tht
property has been made way with by
Sykes OF swallowed up in court charges
but even with this loss the state viii
come In for a handsome sum acquired
altogether through prostitution.

Ma RRowN, who was comptroller, and
whose bondsmen are out $4,000, is out in
another anti-swain screed Of three good
columns in the Galveston News. Life is
too short and the sun too hot for THE
GAZETTE TO inGict its readers with re-
publication. The Galveston paper was,
OF course, forced to read the TRADE, and
this is the comment made by that paper
thereon: nEx-Comptroller Brown takes
another lunge at Comptroller Swain this
morning. Mr.. Browns present docu-
ment is largely rehash OF his former
performance. There is not much In It,
In fact, Mr. Browns publications are on
the whole nattering to Col. Swain. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Browns own account he
has raked the record with ine-toothed
comb, and yet all he can Gnd that he CON
slders derogatory to Swain's administra-
ton of the comptroller's Office, is that
Swein's sons were given odd jobs OF
work In the office. Did Mr.. Brown fad
out whether the Swain boys did their
work we'll or not2 II they did, that is an
end of 1t. II Mr.. Brown keeps on, 1t is
barely possible that suspicion will be
engendered that he is disgruntled."
