THE CAMPAIGN.

4n"'SeUpOtto ATtOUve Inc same peO-
pie live in Minnesota who lived here
two years ago, making due allowance
for the newcomers. If Mayor Ames is
elected Governor, if Democratic Con-
gressmen are chosen, if the political
complexion of the state is changed as
result of the election three weeks hence,
= it will be by the vote of the same
people who gave Garfield plurality of
over 40, 900 in 1880, Governor Hubbard
a plurality Of nearly $4,000 in 1883, and
Blaine a plurality of nearly $4,000 in
1884. 1t will mean political revolution
as remarkable as any in the history of
the country. 1t would be the more re-
markable because not only without any
possible reason but in the face of the
Weightiest reasons It would be q
meaningless stampede, rejecting upon
the intelligence and sober sense of the
people of Minnesota. Let us review
the situation.
The people of Minnesota have cause
for profound satisfaction in the charac-
ter OF our state administrations under
Republican rule. Not state in the union
has been more admirably or economic
ally administered. Our Governors have
been honest, just and wise. The de-.
partments have been administered with
business methods. There have been no
scandals. The public institutions of
Minnesota as group are not surpassed
anywhere. Mr.. McGill and his associ-
ates on the Republican ticket would
certainly give the state as upright and
excellentan administration as any state
ever had. Mr.. McGill has every quail
hcation for the governorship, and no
specifications whatsoever. There is
not in the state a candid Democrat who
knows Mr.. McGill or is familiar with
his record who will not admit his adj
mirable fitness on every account for the
Office. What reason then can the people
who voted for Garfield and Blaine and
who have supported a line of excellent
Republican state tickets, assign this
fall if they withdraw support from the
present state ticket? None, certainly
unless the Democratic ticket offers
something very greatly superior. Let
us see.
1t is headed by the name of the Mayor
of Minneapolis. His record is unsavory.
and his present attitude as candidate
humilating and disgraceful. He was
elected Mayor last spring by virtue of a
conjunction Of extraordinary circum.
stances. Workingmen were in an I'M
easy and reactionary mood, DR.. Ames
advertised himself as champion of the
''dinner-pail brigade He promised
laboring men a reduction of hours and
an increase Of pay. He promised APP
pointments to about ten times as MANY
men as there were offices to fill. He
posed as the inveterate enemy of mo-
nopolies and bosses. He was elected,
and at once began to use his success as
the stepping stone to higher Office, ut
terly neglecting the duties Of the may
orality. His promises to workingmen
were OF course bosh. For three months
after his accession to Office, mechanics
and wage workers saw the hardest times
they ever experienced in Minneapolis.
It was not until they appealed to CAPT

The Minneapolis postofice robbery is
at last thoroughly cleared up. The
planner and executor of the robbery was
arrested Monday by Detectives Marks
and Granger onWest Washington str.
Chicago. His name is Bobby Adams.
Although a young man, he is known all
over the United States and England as
one OF the most adroit burglars and safe
blowers with whom the officials have
dealt for ten years. Adams is as we'll
known in New York as Chicago, He
first conceived the plet to rob the Min
neapolis post-ofice. Before doing this
ne is said to have come to Chicago and
arranged with T. j. Finucane to handle
and negotiate for the stamps after the
robbery. David Shannahan, in the
south town assessors office, and Mr..
Noyes, are also said to be implicated in
the scheme. At any rate, after the dis
covery of the steal and the recovery of
the stamps they were arrested, but sub
sequently released on their own recog-
nizance. Finucane is still in jail. These
three men have been so assiduously
pumped by officers on the case that the
.'squeal was made. and .4Bobby" "A.
dams was the person eliminated. He
was turned over to United States secret
officers to-day.
He was held over to-day by the Uni
ted States commissioner until next We'd
nesday in $1,000 bonds.

Stimulating Old Fruit Trees.

When apple and other fruit trees
lose their vigor from age, or from
neglect or want of fcrtilizing, there
are different modes foi restoring
them to vigor, which may be used to
the best advantage during autumn.
One of the easiest Of application is
to spread a coat of barn manure
broadcast for twenty five or thirty
feet distance from the trunk of the
tree on each side. This treatment
will frequently he sufficient Of itself.
in addition to pruning out any
dead branches, or thinning in the
head from the outside or both.
Cultivatipg the surface while the
tree dormant is an additional aid.
For smaller trees which are required
to stand in grass, or where they a
not be cultivated, a strong impetus
may be given by cutting radiating
trenches from within a few feet Of
the tree a rod or so in length on all
sides, and filling these with compast.
The large roots, which lie on each
side of these trenches, will send
their side roots into the compost,
and the trees will be pushed radidly
in growth. The trenches may be
from one to two feet in depth. and
the width that of tho spade. Anoth-
err mode, instead of cutting these
radiating trenches, is to cut d circu-
lar ditch around the tree at some
distance from the trunk and to 6ll
this with compost. Several roots
will soon send fbres into the com
post, while the pruning which the
roots receive will promote fruitful.
ness. Some judgment must be used
to cut tile ditch at the right distance:
ii too near, it will temporarily check
the growth too severely, before new
roots are formed ; and if too far
away, the labor will be too great,
and the result less striking. In most
cases however, and with orchards Of
some size, cultivating and ~top-dress-
ing will be sufficient. All cutting
Of the roots or branches uu~t be
done while the trees arc not grow

The Cow Pea as a Fodder Crop.

The Cow Pea is one Of the most
valuable fodder plants for the South.
We have cen a crop Of peas which
yielded four tons to the acre Of most
excellent fodder, and it left the
ground in the best condition for sew
ing wheat. Another farmer sowed
peas among his corn, at the last
blowing, covering them with the
pillow, and we should estimate the
yield on the ground. Of both crops
at a ton and a half Of corn fodder;
and forty bushels of peas, with the
corn equal to t~hirty-6ve or forty
bushels to the acre, and a large
of pea straw, which makes
good feed. The common opinion
that the South is not a stock coun.
try, is entirely unfoundcd. With the
long growing season, the really rich.
but badly managed soil, and the
great variety of fodder crops and
feeding stufs, it is not at all exag.
gerating the matter to say, that beet
cattle can be reared to one thousand
pounds weight in three years, at a
cost Of one cent per pound live
weight, and in addition. there is a
large quantity of manure left which
is really invaluable to the Southern
farmer.-American Agricalturist for

sentative breeders figure a sure
profit Of from Is to IS per cent per
