Primaries.

The INDEPENEENT is not in politics,
| think the North Star is out of place aud
| the supply of water is short. Neither
of the old parties have put themselves
on record on these matters. We know
they are not going to make any change
in these matters. We did draw up
good platform but it got stuck in the
adobe. Every man can find something
wrong in everything and in every per-
son. In fact man was created re-
former. for he Invented lie. some
clothes, and struck out for himself.
of hlm has been against the admins
tration. Now it has come to such
| pass that the only true and original re-
| former, "the man of convictions" has
hard time to make himself heard in the
tempest and whrlwind of reform.
Give man the problem of mans
right and the airs wrong and he will
wear his pants out trying to solve the
problem. all the time blaming the air
because he has no food.
The point is this, any one can be a
fool. No number of men can be as
sorted who will accomplish radical
reform at one step. No one man can
accomplish Il radical reform of the pub
lie in life time. Take the world as it
is, add your mite and might. Work in
your sphere. Work hard. Do right.
Not always is everything wrong that
you do not approve. You may have
mind of your own, there are il few such
men. Remember this that there s in
political platters. common sense, COM
mon aims.
Letharey is even worse than a sur
plus of the reform spirit. Our govern
ment is necessarily dependent on politi-
cal action. 1t is easy to make kick;
it is easy to be reformer. The best
thing to do. is to begin at the fountain
head of political wrong. the primaries.
The voter sometimes has to swallow
a bitter drailght simply because he ard
his fellows were too lazy to help mix
it. Attend your primaries, Act as if
you had some interest in doing your
self good.

The Busy Bee.

An Alabama bee keeper, who has had ex-
perience with many hives, says in the South
ern Agrieulturis Those who follow the
theory that Bees work tor nothing and feed
and clothe themselves vii. probably never
glut the honey market with their produce
tions. A man may reasonably expect re-
turns from his farm and bestow no care OF
labor upon it after putting his seed into the
ground. A lazy, careless. slovenly person
will fail in bee culture, as in everything else.
There can be no harmony feeling of sym
pathy between such person and this mar
velous insect, whose name, for ages past, has
| been emblenatic of industry.
To transfer colonies smoke the bees in the
gum on its side. placing the new gum where
it stood. Now with chisel loosen up side
plank, or, if Il hollow log, take off the head
and stand it on end; saw off the cross sticks,
cut the combs loose from the sides of the gum
and remove it in as large straight pieces as
possible. Lay a frame of the new hive upon
cloth folded several times so as to make a
| cushion, and fit the pieces of comb into it,
fastening them by bent wire or strips by tack
ing thin strips Of wood on each side, or by
! tying lengthwise'and crosswise enough stout
| twine to hold the comb in position a few
hours, when the bees will have patched the
combs up nicely and fastened them into the
frames. The temporary fastenings should
| then be removed. AS you take up each piece
of comb, brush every bee off ON piece Of
paper that h;is been spread in front of new
| hive and they will march in. Look out for
! the robber bees!--11mericuH Fdrmer.

A BAD CASE OF FLUX CURED.

My little boy. about eight months old, was
taken with fiux. After several days, we
commenced giving Chamberlain's colo,
cholera, and diarrhea remedy, according to
directions We were very uneasy about the
child, and sent for physician. told him
what we had been doing, and showed him
the medicine He examined it, and told ms
the best thing we could do was to go ahead
and give the remedy. We used about half OF
a small bottle, and cnred the child, although
the child was so low that he had no use of
himself. We thought so much of our rem
edy tnat we would let no one else have it. ]
told my wife a few days ago that must write
and tell you what your medicine had done.

cts. Get us large u number to work
for the measure as possible SO that the
bill will not be opposed as sectional. If
we can convince oNercrowded New
York that much of our land can be re-
deemed by these reservoirs and that
their poor can find cheap homes. we

The idea Of International copyright

fered an amendment appropriating
$25O,o0Q for the purpose of making an
investigation rs to the amount of arid
lands that can be redeemed by irriga-
ton. He said he was very much in
earnest about the matter. and hoped it
would receive the fair and cordial con-
sideration which its great Importance
demanded. His speech commanded
attention. Bowen is not very much on
the spout. but when he goes after any
thing he usually gets it. He is doing
good work for Colorado. AS he SAID !:
"rhis is not Il matter that concerns
IL small section of Colorado, but it con-
Rocky mountain states and territories.
The limit of public lands have been
narrowed The wealth of the govern
ment has grown enormously. We want
"A land of homes from the east to the
west. If the government would take
hold of the matter the deserts and
bleak adobe plains would make happy
homes, open new fields of industries.
