The Return Of Lang.

"Who is this that cometh from
Edom with dyed garments from Boz
rah. This that is glorious in his ap-
parel, travelling in the greatness of
his strength?" 1t is Worthy Master
William Wallace Lang, and he is in
town to-day, rubicund with Pilsner
and rotund with Hamburger steaks.
His exile is almost ended and he is
now swinging around the circle with
the boys.
Many of us remember the time IA
years ago when the Worthy Master
set all day in the Richey Hall here,
his hair powdered with hayseed and
an ear of corn in his pocket, waiting
for Charlie Stewart and Roger @.
Mills to lock the convention.
Time rolled on and Farmer Downs
filled the earth with the woes of the
hus sandman in the Examiner and
Patron, and Worthy Master Lang
swung round and round the circle in
widening rings, protesting that the
grange had nothing to do with poll
tics; Farmer Downs, however, persis-
tently demanding that as proper tri-
butte to the sturdy tiller of the soil,
Lang be made governor. Worthy
Master Lang lectnred and spoke and
advocated that all taxation be placed
on land, just as Henry George has
since advocated. Many people have
forgotten this. The times was liven-
ing up then. The Old Alcalde, clad
in blue army OvercOat, was moving
among the masses with his old hair
trunk.
All of a sudden Farmer Downs
hauls up with jerk. What can the
matter be? Where is Worthy Mas
ter Lang. the grange leader? Like
the burial of Moses his departure was
mysterious. But we found him at
last. Over In Hamburg drinking
schnapps and eating bOlognas, he
was acting as immigration and ticket
agent for Jay Gould's Texas railways;
aiding these iron juggernauts to roll
over the necks of the cideyant trans
parencies of Van Zandt and other
counties. Old Roberts slips slyly in
to the gubernatOrial chair and his son
takes position ON the I. & G. N,
and throws open for sale the school
and public lands along the line of the
Il. & p. as soon as built.
The sands run on. Grover Cleve-
land gets 1900 more votes in New
York than Blaine does, and Jay Gould
hurries to billet his immigration
agent upon the United States as con-
sui general at Hamburg. For it must
be observed that Jay Gould has sworn
that he never speculates-he has
dead sure things-and that in demo-
cratic districts he is a democrat and in
mugwump circles he is mugwump.
But man cannot run forever upon
pretty phrases, horse shoes and rab-
bits feet; and Grover at last is sent
foot and William Wallace returns,
soon to stay, in his native land OF
Falls county, in the Ninth congress
sional district and has already began
to bob around as of yOre.
WhereupOn, If the great tariff re.
former, by whose aid the democracy
lost st. Louis and other OF the citade-
lels, can not induce the railways to
support the big granger, thing the
national democracy can no longer do
the gallant Roger must prepare t.
meet his doom.-Plaindealer.

full as the old.
BY the new method the roots are
planted in any deeply dug rich soil
and the ground covered several inches
deep with manure, and through this
the succulent stems are pushed in the
spring. No other cultivation is
needed, except to keep clear OF weeds,
and to cover again with a thick coating
OF manure every fall after the stalks
have died and been removed. 1t is a
beautiful plant, being highly orna-
mental in garden, with its delicate
foliage and bright red berries. AS it
comes before peas, which it not only
resembles in taste and surpasses in
delicacy of flavor, it is the earliest of
all vegetables, and in this respect very
valuable. A bed planted once is
planted forever and improves in pro.
ductiveness year by year. The best
and cheapest roots to plant are those
three or more years old, as such old
roots give a full crop the first season.
II may be also raised from seed, but
the process is very slow, requiring four
or five years before full crop is Sc.

In Telos wedding presents are exceed
ingly practical, and partake chiefly of the
nature of food to be consumed OF the
wedding festivities; and toward even
ing on this day, when all the baskets of
grain had been gathered together. the
young men of tho village distributed it to
be ground in the hand mills, and for the
space of two hours nothing was to be
heard in the town save the monotonous
grinding of the two stones, and the
equally monotonous songs OF the women
engaged in this occupation. 1t was nearly
dark when Peter, the bridegroom elect,
was informed that all the -four was
ground, whereupon certain young men
of his acquaintance, with flutes, bag
pipes and Tyres, escorted him from house
TO house to collect this flour in large
sacks.
At each house they tarried for little
time, the instruments played and the
young men and maidens danced curl
GUS little dance, in which one man and
ono maid alone took part, at the same
time singing little love songs as they
move to and fro. From house to house
they wandered, singing and dancing all
| tho evening, and when the flour was COL
lected they took it to Catharine's house,
where table was spread, at which the
women who had ground the grain and
the young men who had accompanied
tho bridegroom We're entertained. After
this meal, and when all were merry with
wine, the dancing began again, and con-
tinuea well into the night; it was very
interesting and pretty to watch the inter.
laced Cretan dance, the quiet, stately
singing dances. and the brilliant aero
; batic feats of the leader of tho circular
dance. Thus ended the great prenuptia
