"A powerful opposition has been secretly
organized against Cleveland's renomina-

Randall thought about Monday. But some,
thing seemed to drop on Randall on We'd
nesday at Harrisburg and no doubt he is
convinced the phrase powerful opposi

A SOCIAL TINE.
A heretofore untried experiment, skating
and dancing on the same evening in one hall,
is now an assured success at the Armory
Rink, under the management Of Mr.. AL.
Buffers. Friday evening was the occasion
Of another dance Of this series, and drew
jolly crowd Of young people at an early hour.
In fact, it is beginning to be looked upon a.
sort of dancing academy, and young
folks who felt too ungainly and abashed to
mingle in crowd of feather footed dancers
at "dollar ball." seeing other girls and
fellows as awkward as they on the floor, took
the clew and did likewise. Something
comical in their effots? They even seemed
to acknowledge it by their reticent manner.

the beginners in full force, but large
number Of the best trippers of the city took
it In after the skate. Those who dant dance,
sksted, those who don't skate, danced.
OTHER OCCASIONS.
A couple Of bob loads Of Matte Douglass

It was an elegant night for a sleighing party.

the evening was just right for conversation

The bill that passed for the divis-
ion Of Alturas county some five and
a half years ago, and was pocketed
by ex-governor O'Niel, was killed
in consequence of the influence of
certain gentlemen in Boisie City,
who thought it would be better for
their interests as well as our own to
have us annexed to Ada. Since
that time the debt of Alturas has
swelled to such terrible proportions
that Ada has no wish to inherit the
debt that would accrue to her on
account of the acquisition of our
territory. We have grown stronger
in wealth and population and de-

MORNING, JUNE 80, 1888.



A good deal Of curiosity has been
aroused over what has been said by
the press about a forage plant, known
- asperset, or AZ it is now called es-
percet. The correct name is espar-
sette, or sallfoin; the botanical name
being "onobrychis sativa." The Car
son Appeal has taken q great deal
Of interest in this plant and publish
ed all that could be learned con-
corning it. It recently published
an interview with q former resident
Of Germany, who was familiar with
the plant in that country, in which
he said: II know all about the
grass" said Mr.. Rammelskamp; II
have raised a great deal of it in Ger
many. It is the principal fodder
grass of that country; yet l would
hardly call it grass, but rather q
weed. It grows rank and quick,
will do without irrigation, seeds
down rapidly, and is perinnial. 1t
will grow on the worst land you can
find in this territory. l have seen
it on land that seems nothing but
grit. 1t was worse than sandy land;
regular grit, and seemingly useless,
but espercet would grow finely upon
it. have seen it planted on hard
red soil that would resist a pick.
and yet the espercet would grow
from eighteen inches tu two feet
high ON it without water. Still, a
little irrigation is great improve
ment. With one irrigation in the
spring, it will grow to mans chin,
and 30 rank and thick, that the
men want extra price to NOW it.
have seen seven tons to the acre cut
in Germany, and a German acre is
smaller than an American acre.
For espercet take any of the big
sandy deserts, 80 called, of the terri
tory, and you can turn them into
big espercet fields. A few summer
showers will make the plant grow
high and rank. It fattens stock
rapidly, and makes COWS give milk
splendidly. A million tons of es-
percet could be raised in Nevada in
places which are now considered
worthless for anything. 1t will not
seed the first year, but after that it
is a heay seeder. The seed grows in
pods and yields tremendously.

rowing and it will soon spread
Cattlemen ought to pay more atten-
ton to this plant.
Espercet is leguminous plant
and belongs to the same family ii
clover, alfalfa, etc. The stem grows
from one to three feet high and beal
a pea-shaped blossom. The yield
is much less than alfalfa, but it il
very nutritious, and is particularly
beneficial for COWS. It succeeds
