was in the direction OF tine interests OF
labor, and that their dire punishment is
part OF a blow at labor Nothing can be
farther from the truth. Powderly plainly
defines the attitude of labor toward these
fellows, and it is position not capable of
more than one constru, ton. The Knights
OF Labor give the right TO speak for them
TO no man, and they never can counte-
nance any such doctrines as those of An
archy, Socialism or Nihilism. Those who
have the welfare OF the Order in their
hearts will do well to forget the existence
Of the Knights OF Labor, while discussing
the Anarchists or their punishments. No
known cause in the hundreds springing
up daily is more unfit TO mate with the
manly intent OF the Knights of Labor
than that OF the men who seek to drive

TO catch the soldier vote by whooping on
this matter, but the recent action OF the
great majority of the Grand Army En-
campment at San Francisco, in voting
down general pension law, proves that
the soldier element is composed OF men
who are as deeply read in political science
as the professional politicians who sought
to spring this trap, and the Republican
party is welcome 10 all the strength it
can gain from that kind of a plea. The
crow, the ancient and unsavory crow
which the Ohioans bolted on the
Payne matter must have been dis
tasteful to men who prate so
much of independence and pride
in their actions. They were compelled to
placate ITalstead, and dared not offend
Logan. They made their cry on the sub
iect, very like the newly appointed cor
poral who rammed his head in an empty
cask and called out his own name with
the corporal attached, to drink in the
melody of the sound, unaware that the
whole corps laughed at him. The
Ohioans called out "Payne" and
"boodle" but they now find that the
whole political world laughs at their ac-
ton, and ITalstead will damn them for
their faint endorsement, while Logan
Dhu will pass them by in contempt. The
Iowa and California Republicans followed
in the same key, and the similitude o
all to the key note OF Jingo Blaine
proves that they are again about to try
the experiment OF forcing him on tn,
American people. Judged by the empti
ness of their platforms, and the magni
tude OF their promises, they will have
repetition of previous experiences il

THE REPUBLICAN BAZOO.

The Republicans of three OF the West
ern States held their State Conventions
yesterday, and the unanimity with
which their respective platforms reiter-
ated the jingo utterances OF Blaine OF the
day before-differing only in phrase
ology-points out the fact that Blaine is
again in harness for the Republican nom
ination, and his lieutenants have re-
ceived orders to toot in chorus with his
exalted horn. BY the way OF novelty
the Ohio Republicans inserted the fol-
lowing in their platform;
Reaflirms that to the Union soldiers and
sailors in the late war we owe debt that
can not be computed, and it is the duty of
the Government to grant pensions and es-
tablish homes for all such as are disabled
or in want, and with equal earnestness We
condemn the heartless and wholesale vetoes
by President Cleveland of the private pen
sion bills recently passed by Congress.
1t would be waste OF space to notice
this stuff, only that in another place they
arraign the President for the large appro-
priations made, one OF the largest OF
hIllCil 10 itCiii vi lDtllSlOI tdllcu
for by bills introduced by Democrats and
signed by him, increasing widows and
dependents pensions to the amount OF
$4,000, 900 yearly. The DEMOCRAT fully
exposed the hypocrisy of the plea that
the vetoing OF certain pension bills was
heartless, but as the Republicans can
find no material of better strength, this
must be again exposed. All such bills
were for the benefit Of men who had sub
mitted their claims TO the Pension De-
partment ,Uhen il aCas in tie hands Of
Republicans, and they were by RepuJ
licda AdministrdtiOa, MrOwn OW as north
less. In order to have a means for pick
ing flaws in the Presidents action, these
same claims were introduced in Congress
by Republicans, knowing that no possible
construction OF the law would permit o
their approval by the President, only on
the score OF charity, and he could not be
charitable with the peoples money. The
Republicans thought they saw chance

THE RUSSIAN WAR CLOUD.

The upshot of the dethronement or re-
moval of the Battenburg Prince, Alex
ander, by Russian conspiracy, will be
serious trouble between the Powers, in
which England will be called upon to
take an active part. 1t should be borne
in mind that Russia has, for the past ten
years, been slowly mobolizing an army,
concentrating munitions OF war, and
building roads to all strategical points in
the vast confines OF her territory, solely
with view to be able to enforce her de-
mands on neighboring petty princes,
when she is ready to make them. All
OF these movements have for an object
i've, the goading of England to war, the
consummation of which would be the
crowning act of the new Cars life, and
owing to the deep hostility OF his
people for England, it would
go far to turn the present
tide OF Nihilism and other interior
troubles, in his favor. The power OF the
Gar to bully or cajole the Turkish Sultan
into the closing OF the Dardanelles is the
bugbear England has to meet, for in the
event of war. her inability to enter and
control the Black Sea would place her at
the mercy of Russia, for she never could
get a foothold through Cornstadt or other
Baltic ports. The complete mechanism
now in service in the Black Sea for the
sinking OF ships would drown the vaunted
British navy, even ii it got past the
straits, and with her naval power playing
| second fiddle, the position would be re-
versed from what it was during the
Crimean campaign when the allied
armies opposed her. That the in
| tent OF the Gar is to force II fight
every sign OF the recent trouble proves,
| and that the dethronement oil Alexander
causes deep concern in England, there is
also no doubt. The Austrian monarch
and his people are wrapt in their friend
ship for the Czar and his people, and ii
circumstances should ally the Turks with
England in the threatened trouble, moth
ing would be more natural than that
Austrian men would take sides with the
Czar, and divide the spols in the sha pc
OF European territory. The autonomy
OF the petty principalities lying between
Russia, Austria aud Turkey proper has
always been menace to the peace OF all
Europe, and now that Russia has taken
the initiative, it remains to be seen wheth-
er England will submit to this insult to
her friend, the Sultan, or take it up
and fight the Russian for his temerity
Such war would be blessing to Amer
lean commerce, as it would drive British
commerce from the seas before the guns
OF the swift cruisers owned by Russia
and would open market for more than
could be produced OF all that goes to make
the sinews OF war. The increasing
hatred OF the Russians for Englishmen
will doubtless hasten the event, and Eng
gland, standing on her own merits, viii
find the game totally different one from
that played by Marshal Canrobert OF the
French army and Lord Raglan the flower
OF the British army, against poorly
equipped army OF Russians and bank
rupt treasury.

AND THE X. OF l..

In answer to the few men who hold
ultra radical views on the conviction OF
the Chicago fiends who threw or were
the cause OF the throwing OF the bomb
at the Haymarket in that city, We clip
the following from the Cleveland Plain
Dealer, which fits the subject exactly;
The condemned Chicago Anarchists and
their paid attorneys profess to be deeply
grieved at the result of the trial, not 80
much on their own account, but for the in
terests of labor represented by them. 1t is
blow ut labor by the capitalists, they say,
and labor must resent it.
That plea will not save them. Honest
labor has nothing III common with the muir
derous anarchists, nor have they any in
terest in the welfare of labor. For the
greatest damage that has been done the
cause of labor IN years the anarchists are
responsible. They have assumed to speak
for labor, without any warrant for the
claim. Their impudent assertions have
been accepted AS true by those who are
| always suspicious of the labor element, and
for tine wild talk and criminal acts of the
non-laboring anarchists the real working
men, especially those who have organized in
| any form, have been harshly judged.
The injustice of this is keenly felt by the
| real workingmen and the representatives of
organized labor. They are protesting vigor-
ously against the right of the Anarchists to
speak for them. They repudiate their doc
trines and their acts, recognizing fully the
! injury done the cause of labor by them.
! To-day there is no class of citizens in Chi
cago and elsewhere in the country who are
more anxious to see the full sentence of the
law carried out on the Anarchist wolves OF
society than the industrious workmen in
whose behalf those murderous wretches pro
fessed to have committed their crimes.
There are few men in this city who
hold that the work Of these miscreants

Water for Stock.

Farm animals otten suffer mors from want of water iu the winter, than in the summer. Ice and snow will not do instead of water. They injure the animals by abstrct- ing heat from the stomach. and destroy the f9tus in COW or a eve, by chilling it fatally. Many cases of this kind occur from this cause. Hence, good, deep well or well supplied. deep cistern is & great advantage iu a barn yard for winter use. It has we'll paid those farmers who have large stove in the basement of the barn, or stable, to warm the floor above and the water used for the stock, both for drink and mixing the food. \ noted dairyman who supplied his cows in this way with warm water, with meal in it, found the milk to increase twenty-five per cent, and the cream more still. This of course paid very well for the tueI and the trouble.-Ameri can Agriculturist.

On One Acre.

X farmer living in Maine mak es
 a statement of what he raised the
 pas. year on one acre of land-al'
 most ehough we should think to
 support family. He planted one
 third of an acre Tn corn; and he
 usually produced 30 bushels of
 good corn. This quantity was suf,
 fcient for his family and for fat tening two to three large hogs.- From the same ground upon which the corn stood he raised two to three hundred pumpkins and an ample supply of beans. From a bed of six rods square he usually obtained sixty bushels of onions; these he sold for q per bushel, which amount purchased his flour for one year. Thus from one third of an acre and an onion bed he ob taIaed his bread stuff and two or three hundred pounds of pork The remainder of the ground was to all kinds of veget- ables, for summer and winter use. He also had flower garden, rasp- berries, currents, gooseberries in great abundance, and also a few choice apple, plum, pear aud peach trees.-Exchange.

 No month of the calendar pre- sents such diversities of farm- work between the different parts of our country. While the Northern farm CT is still confronted by the winter in all it's severity, sometimes more fierce and boisterous as the days grow longer, his Southern brother may be enjoying the bland airs o' the gulf, getting in potatoes and wheat, or watching the swelling buds of the orange trees, or the full blossom of the peach. This being the case, our readers must read the hints for the labors of the month. with due allowance for lat iiude. There is probably still work in the wood lot, and until the sap starts, wood may be cut with profit. Maple, birch aud other trees, which early feel the infu. ence of the coming spring, ought to be felled very carly in the season, for cut at tli' time, even the logs will bleed, and be long in drying and seasonins.- t The frosts or rather freez ing and thawing, often lifts stcnes and those in moving land lying or the service may be profitably pick cd off the. land. when the ground is bare in winter, than at any oth CT time.
