The protection" Campaign.

The present political canvess will
be known in history as the "protec-
tion campaign" The two old parties
are speaking themselves hoarse in
favor of protecting the wages of the
laboring man. The Prohibition
party is shouting for "protection for
the home." The American Party is
crying out for protection against
pauper emigration. The woman's
rights party under Mrs. Lockwood
is screaming for protection for women
by granting them the right of Suf-
frage. And the Union Labor party
is fiercely demanding protection
against monopoly. transportation
extortion and trusts robbery.

Comes out for Cleveland.

The Cecil Neles announces in its last is
sue its change from an Independent to a
party organ in the interest of Cleveland,
Unless there is a wheel within this wheel,
it looks like mistake to man up tree,
to drop the independent feature and take
the contracted ground of an organ A party
organ is bound to bark TO the party bosses
dictation and be thick and thin for good,
bad and indifferent party candidates and
party methods. An independent paper can
make specially in advocating certain men
and measures whether they bear the party
stamp or public favor, but an organ cannot
dare to do SO. The editor of the Neus pro
proposes 10 continue 10 advocate temper
ance and every phrase of temperance re-
form" mot much" if the paper is 10 be
a democratic organ. One of the strongest
planks IN the party's national platform is
personal liberty" and ''anti.sumptuary
law" These are watch words of the liquor
interest, and in plain English mean that
the liquor business is entitled to all the
rights and privileges of any other branch
of traffic and manufacturing. II is but a
short period in the future when the party
will have to face the prohibition party in a
struggle for mastery. The Ne,rs will have
to flop or take its turn on guard with the
saloon. AS an independent paper the Nems
could advocate Cleveland if it wished, and
free-trade or protection with its liberty 10
take hold Of any question that might arise
without asking the party's consent. An
organ cannot do so.
The Ners proposes to also change its day
of issue from Wednesday to Thursday.

The Storm of Tuesday.

We felt the edge of the great
cyclone storm of Tuesday which
swept West Virginia and Maryland
The wind here blew a stiff gale for a
few minutes on Tuesday afternoon
Frustrating corn to some extent. A
heavy rain fell in the course of the
afternoon, which soaked the ground
thoroughly. The storm in all it's VIC
lence swept West Virginia and Mary
land doing immense damage. The
storm appears to have swept with
great violence oyer most of the state.
A great water-spout appeared on
Chesapeake bay, described by eye
witnesses as huge water-spout
sweeping across the bay driven by a
tremendous wind. The huge funnel,
shaped mass of water apparently
formed half a mile east of Surprise
Island off Murry's Point, at the south
end of Hartford county, and swept
past POOLS Island.
Early in the afternoon a heavy
rain-storm, accompanied by a 40
mile-an-hour wind, struck Rock
away Beack, on Rock creek, Anne
Arundel county, about IL miles from
Baltimore. The wind increased in
violence until it was perfect tor.
nado, which, sweeping eastward. car
ried everything before it. Trees
we're blown down, barns unroofed,
and cattle in pasture are in several
cases reported to haye been lifted
from the earth and carried several
hundred feet.
AN UNFORTUNATE TOWN.
Jacobsville, a town of about 800
inhsbitants at the source of Rock
creek, IN the northeastern section of
Anne Arundel county, suffered, so
far as is known, worse than any other
place visited by the tornado. Half
the houses were unroofed and ~
dwellings are reported to have been
blown completely from their foun-
dations. The widest excitement
prevailed, and men, women. and chill.
dren gathered in the more substan
tial edifices of the town and found
shelter there. The residence of Oil.
yer Williams, of Jacobsville, q large
frame structure was lifted from its
stone foundation and carried several
hundred feet by the hurricane. The
gale lasted abouta quarter of an hour,
during which there was heavy rain
fall. After this time, however, it
subsidized and seemed to have taken
northeasterly course up the bay.
A mule and cart which were stand
ing in the street are said to have been
carried a hundred yardsthrough the
air about 80 feet from the ground
No lives are reported lost.

Farm Life.

1t is common remark that farm
life is not appreciated by our people.
We long for the more elegant pur-
suits or the ways and fashions of the
town. But the farmer has the most
safe and natural occupation, and
ought to find life sweeter, if less
highly seasoned, than any other.
He alone, strictly speaking, has
home. How can a man take root
and thrive without land? He writes
his history upon his fields. How
many ties, how many resources, has
his friendship with his cattle, his
team, his dog, his trees, the satisfac-
ton in his growing crops; in his i'm
proved fields; his intimacy with ma
ture, with bird and beast, and with
the quickening elemental forces; his
cooperation with the clouds, the
sun, the seasons, heat, wind, rain,
frost Nothing will take the various
social distempers which the city and
artificial life breed out of man like
farming, like direct and loving con-
tact with the soil 1t draws out the
poison. 1t humbles him; teaches
him patience and reverence, and re-
stores the proper tone to his system.
Cling to the farm; make much of it,
SO that it shall SAVIOR of you and ra-
diate your virtues after your days
work is done.-Scribner.

perfume, but combination and
cooperation are what are needed.
Some systematic plan should be
adopted to scatter abroad all the
necessary information in regard to
our desirable lands. There is no
time to lose. The matter should be
talked over and over. 1t should be
discussed earnestly at all farmers
club meetings, and public opinion
should be so moulded that when the
next political primaries shall be
held for selecting candidates for the
Legislature, this immigration idea
shall be determining consideration
in naming the men who are to make
the aws.-Baltimore American.

ject by presenting only one more
case to your fancy stock patrons.
Some of them, possibly, will not
think and believe as l do, that this
and many invisible but natural laws
prevail that they are not willing to
allow. One Calvin Ward, promi-
nent citizen of West Richmond, N.
T., reported in my presence that a
neighbor of his was about to have a
brood mare of his served, and the
groom gave him the choice between
two stallions-the one bay, the
other of a cream color. He preferred
the points inherited by the first
mentioned better than the second,
except the color. To secure a
cream-colored colt, he made the ex-
pertinent on the proper day for trial,
and when all was ready, out comes
the cream-colored horse from hi.
stall and teased the mare awhile,
Then, as soon as she was blinds
folded, creamy was returned, and the
bay admitted to serve, unseen by
the dam, and soon returned to its
stable. Then the binders were re-
moved, and the cream -colored horse
was exposed to view, right in front
of the mare. In process of time,
Mr. Ward said, the color of the colt
SO much admired by it's owner, was
fully realized. The mare foaled
fine cream colt; and this was the
first of this bay horses get of that
color, among the many mares served.
And now we feel that this is an i'm
portant lesson for shepherds and
other persons to look into, while yet
in the prime of life.-Cor. Sheep

They Are Coming.

BY and by, rest assured, we are to
have great accessions to our south
ern seaboard population If we
mistake not, the signs of the times
surely foreshadow the early coming
of the day when the tide of that mi
grafton which has been steadily
surging westward for half century
from the New England and Middle
States, and from the crowded coun-
tries of the old world, is to change
its course and divide its forces in
the fulfilment of destinies yet to be
wrought out on our great continent.
The Scandinavian division will
doubtless for some years to come
