.yeI Davis as a Vsurper.

Gen. Sherman's hazy memory was not
quite SO far of the scent as it has been some
times, when it recalled threat of JEFF Davis
to use Lees army to put down a state revolt
against the Southern Confederacy. A letter
to the governor of South Carolina in 1868 is
reprinted, in which Davis advises him to use
physical force to crush all discomfort or re-
bellion against the war, and promising him
his own assistance. if needed This really
settles the case against Davis, and shows that
while waging war in behalf of state rights,
he was ready to wage another against them
and that, while raging at the Washington
government for trying to coerce a state, he
was as ready to put down rebellion against
confederate authority as Lincoln was to sup
press one against federal authority. There
was, it seems, a usurper" on the James as
well rs on the Potomac.-ECeRtng JOurndi.

Numbers of farmers and others have been

are travelling through the country taking
orders for that class of goods. Don't DO il,
even If you get as good grade Of goods as
are kept by your own merchants which Is
doubtful. and if you save little money in
the operation, which IS still more doubtful. it
isn't right and it isn't for your interest.
Who gives you a little accommodation when
you havn't the ready money! Not the
travelling grocer or dry goods man, but your
home merchant. Who buys the surplus
products of your FARMS gardens and dairies?
Not the travelling tradesman but the home
dealer. The business men of the town are
dependent on your patronage and you. in turn
are equally dependent on them. How would
you fare, think you, If you had to depend
wholly on Chicago or Detroit for market in
which TO buy and sell? Patronize home
trade by all means, and ignore these chaps
who only seek your money and do nothing
at all toward building up your towns, i'm

property more valuable and your living
less expensive and more pleasant and agree

decidedly for your interest. And you bust

wise. When you have little job of print
inc to be done. don't send it to the CITY be-
cause you think you may be able TO save
few cents thereby because OF the superior
facilities and child labor Of the city Office.
What does more for your interest and for
the interest of your town than your own
home newspaper? Nothing and you know
it. Then give it your custom, your sub.

so. Think on these things" farmers,

The equity of the position of the Detroit
base ball club, in its dispute with the league
is so plain that those who can't see il evi
IDENTIFY don't want TO. The percentage
system is the most equitable for the different
clubs and the best for the general interests
of the national game because it gives the
largest reward to those clubs which play the
best ball. This is an incentive TO the club
managers and to the individual players
which can be secured in no other way. II q
theatrical company or an individual actor
should be paid in proportion to his drawing
powers. certainly the same principle should
apply TO base ball clubs. The position of
the league is unjust and untenable. The
Detroit club ought not to submit to it and
we don't think they will.-EUening Ncus
