Senator Sherman IGNORED,

Senator Sherman's presidential
boom received IA violent shock in
the Ohio republican convention at
Columbus Wednesday. 1t was, in
fact. regular Blaine assemDlage,
and there were prolonged and
hearty cheers when the chairman
of the State committee, IN calling
the convention TO order, declared
that "the Ohio republicans regard.
ed Nr. Blaine as the standard bear
er in 1855" Ii was expected that
Senator Sherman would De chosen
permanent chairman. bat this hon.
or was bestowed on Gov. Foraker,
who is a warm trend OF the Maine
statesman. Indeed, the names of
Blaine and Foraker were coupled
together in the convention ana
about the lObbes of the hotels as
the coming ticket. 1t is further
said Il at Mr.. Sherman demanded
that strong resolutions be adopted
denouncing the election OF Senator
PAYNE, and ceusuring those repub-
licau Senators who spoke and voted
against the investigation. but the
committee on resolutions paid no
attention TO the demand. Aud to
cap the climax, no reference what
ever was made to Senator sherman
in tho resolutions, AS is customary.
1t was indeed a cold day for the
Ohio Senator. -.

excuse or deny the wrongs and outrages
committed by some Of them in 1913. But
investigations heroically begun and ylg-
Orously prosecuted to thirteen hundred
pages. and then quietly put 10 rest on
the shelves OF folding room, did not
tend 10 broadcast the seed OF confidence
in party management.
III we are wise we will look for the

barely pulled through in the other two.
The causes have been too apparent since
the election for them 10 prevail again.
Last fall the party WIS handicappedoy
the most ridiculous platform ever thrown
together for adoption by convention.
Suppose Parnell had gone before the
people OF Ireland on a platform Of Home
Rule concluding the paragraphs with
italics This IS Pdrneiiism. This IS anti
| PdrReiism. This means dnWhng 10 beat
ParneH. He would have been laughed
AT ON both sides OF the Atlantic. Some
charitably inclined persons might have
said he was suffering from brain trouble
-uDerinduced by Oyer-wOrk. The great
issue would have been merged in the
man and it, advocates would have been
engaged in combating personal attacks
upon the faults. fOibles, mistakes ana
weaknesses incident 10 human nature
The man would have stood out a. the
embodiment Of all that was at stake, and
! thus arrayed all personal enemies on the
| side Of the opposition. Just such pat
form was served 10. and swallowed by,
the Richmond convention. The next
morning the document was published,
and the day after the convention adj
! iourned IL appeared with one entirely
| new "plank''-the second paragraph IN
the first column on the fifth page. This
wa. noticed generally, commented upon
variOusy, "cussed" and caressed by
turns til the zeal Of active men gave
place 10 fatal Indifference.
Before the Presidential convention the
canvass was conducted so entirely and
vigorously for one man and yehemently
against all other. that the wonder still
remains IN the minds Of many people
that we came 30 near 10 carrying The
State for the nominee.
That portions Of this letter will not
meet the approval Of some Republicans

is put forth for my own personal yindi-
cation. and with the sincere hope. and
earnest belief, that candid discussion OF

dOund 10 our good in the future. What

may give the Democracy they are en-
tirely welcome to appropriate.

pass it. Since then they have had

10 the Editor Of the Uhig;
In YOUR issue Of the -, correspondent
calls upon me for a further statement con-
corning the public debt.
reply to him, that there would be no
difficulty whatever in efiectng the ar
rangcment he suggests. II the state will
issue her bonds bearing four per cent. IN.
terest, without tax receivable coupons
the creditors will deposit their present
bonds with tax receivable coupons at
tached, in a safe deposit company, which
company will annually cancel the coupons
rs the state pays interest upon her new
bonds
can suggest TO You scheme which
will work oven better than that.
Let the state pass an act providing for
funding all overdue coupons INTO three
percent. taX-receivable coupon bond. All
of them will be funded Then let her pro-
vide for buying, each January and July,
in London, New York, and at the Treas
ury, each thirty-dolar coupon as it falls
due. for so. and you will never hear an
other word concerning the public debt
This would be paying four per cent in
tcrcst upon the present bonds, and her
revenues are ample for it, leaving the ap-
preparations for government and school
expenses just what they now are.

Every country resident may make his own
plan Of improvements. Do not Try to mod
ernie an old-time house. Seek only to make
such additions as will be suggestive Of solid
comfort and be in keeping with the quiet
tone that surrounds all venerable buildings.
These old structures can, of course, have i'm
proving touches. A wide-spreading porch
over the door, with bracket supports instead
Of pillars, will increase rather than lessen its
~quRintness. Do not make it heavy and solid,
with straight timbers, but square the edges
and bevel the ends until they have in artistic
effect, though rough in their workmanship.
A broad, low piazza, with light supports,
may be permissible should an angle be pre-
sented by an extending portion of the build
ing. Remove the lilac bushes and sweet
briers from under the windows and place
them at a respectful distance from the house.
Plant vines in their places, which in a few
years will cover tho unpretending structure
with a screen of living green, thereby adding
greatly to its beauty.
One simple rule will dictate the route Of
all the paths and driveways, and insure q
graceful outline. It is merely to follow the
trail one would make in going from one point
to another. Instinctively the feet will seek
the easiest directions, avoiding rocks, shrubs
and undulations. The spaces intervening
between the walks win form the lawns,
and should not be graded too much, but
simply have the surface smooth, retaining all
prominent or curious rocks and native shrub
berry.
A few groups Of ~shrubbery can be indi-
Gated at what might be called natural posi-
tons, such as at the divergence of paths, the
ends or sides of rocks, at the base of cliffs, or
as screens to o%utbuildings. Details must be
left for future development, the general out
lines of a plan being about all that can be Sc
cured at the onset.
The whOie farm, as well as the immediate
premises about the door, should show the eff
fects of an artistic directing mind. An old
alder run" may be transformed into a grove
If elms and naples, with a few outstanding
willows, and possibly q fish pond to be
treated by q modest dam. Work should be
20 planned that not a stroke shall be lost.
Thus, if a few loads of loan are required in
grading, the bed of q future roadway will
supply it, and the excavation made will serve
as a dumping place for stones removed from
he fields. -American Cultivator.

AS the %auctioneers say, this is the last call
for advice about turning COWS on early pas
ture in the spring. Do not do it. There is
very little substance in the early grass, while
it acts like candy on the child's stomach by
spoiling the appetite for more wholesome
food. At the same time, do not let the COW
slacken in their milk yields if they are fresh.
Put yourself to an extra strain if necessary
to obtain suitable food and enough of it to
keep up the flow until the grass in the pas
ture is strong and healthy, and then let the
cows accustom themselves to- it by feeding
only a few hours a day for the first week.
All of this is, of course, known to the dairy
man, but only too many Of them need to be
reminded to keep them from falling into the
same error year after year. An appetite
spoiled or a milk yield allowed to shrink in
the spring means a steady loss all through
the summer. Whatever Roadway your ami
mails have gained hold on to, or you will
regret it before the fall.-Am. Dairyman.
