WHATEVER else may be its fault
the TINES aims t. be consistent in
ITS labors for the moral as well as
intellectual upbuilding of the com
munity; and though its Judgement
may be at fault concerning the
possibilities of prohibition it has
ever and will ever give the benefit
of the doubt to the side of sobrie-
ty and morality. The newspaper
is expected to go hand in hand
with the pastor and teacher in
moulding public sentiment to the
right side, even though that right
may be in some instances imprac-
ticable, and very few fathers
even though their own weakness
leads them to look with leniency
upon the evils Of intemperanee
care to introduce into their family
a journal which in n bold MS well
as sly manner advocates the
pandering to such an evil. 1t is a
dangerous visitor, and moral as
well IS christian parents are not
slow torealize this fact. Atlength
our phenomenally sincere neigh
Dor has secured recognition as the
saloon organ of the town and de-
MES our last weeks assertions up
ON the authority of some of those
whom it has been laboring to
please. After pleading so earn
estly for calm discussion of the
question it flies of when confront
ed with the facts and secures the
testimony of interested parties
who, ever since the occurrences
mentioned have been laboring to
/ hush the matter up entirely; but
worst Of MI this testimony is false
in every essential particular and
all the good people of our town
know it to be so. The TINES has
stated nothing concerning the
working of our license system
b except what can be easily proven
and four neighbor would use hall
the endeoyor we have to learn the
facts it would save itself consider
ably in the estimation Of ita local
readers.

GEN. Sheridan's plan for the ar
rangement of Indian affairs seems
to be full Of sound sense as we'll
as business. The Indian reserya-
tons comprise about two hundred
thousand square miles, and con-
tain an Indian population Of only
two hundred and sixty thousand.
He advises their contraction to
twenty-six thousand square miles,
which would slot "half-section"
to each Indian family, and the Sc
questration of the remainder by
the Federal Government at a price
Of dollar and a quarter per acre,
the proceeds to be invested in
bonds of the United States, and
the interest to be applied for the
Indians support.

they, and not the saloon keepers,
are responsible for the tears of the
widows, the fatherless, and the
broken-hearted mothers and
wives.

Our orange growers made large
profits last year, and that was only
the beginning Of what will always
prove to be a highly remunerative
industry. There is hardly limit to
the money that may be made from
mature orange trees which have been
carefully attended to and planted in
localities adapted to the citrus fruits.
In the case of particularly fine oranges
some orchardists were paid as much
as 49, box on the tree, and Ave
boxes TO the tree is very moderate
estimate. With seventy trees or up
wards to the acre 1t may be readily
seen what profit there is in orange
culture. But at $1.75 box the profit
is still immense. OF course, all soils
and exposures are not suited to the
cultivation of the orange, and no man
should embark in the business until
he has exercised ordinary Intelligence
in the choice Of his locality. There
will undoubtedly be a splendid profit
from this time forward both in the
vineyard and the citrus orchard, and
it is hard to say which is the more
attractive. Most people will be de-
termined in their choice by the much
shorter period in which they will have
to. wait for return from their grape
vines as compared with their orange
