charges him with being to blame for
the present denlorable condition OF

to make out new roll for that town,
thus virtually admitting the truth of
the charge of incompetency made by

i'sha Blizzard.

Pioneer Press 10th inst.
The storm which pervatled the
Northwest on Wednesday and Thurs
day was genuine blizzard, at least
in some localities, though in this
neighborhood it was simply an ordin-
airy snow storm accompanied by high
winds Not even the word Cyclone
is more misused than blizzard" in
public speech. The genuine blizzard
is storm of fine sleet, accompanied
by fierce gale and freezing temp
erature, almost always following a fine
aud comparatively warm day. 1t is
this which makes the blizzard so fatal
to human life. A fine day with its
genial temperature tempts thousands
of people living on isolated farms to
make visit to the town miles away
where they do their trading. IF on
their return they happen to be over
taken by one of these extraordinary
sleet storms they are likely to have
a hard time in getting home safely,
and if they happen to be on foot their
chances Of reaching home alive are
small For the blizzard not only
obliterates the roadways, but blinds
| the eyes, and unlike the ordinary
snow storm, which is usually accom-
panied by a mild temperature, the
/ blizzard is borne on the deadliest of
cold waves.
Fortunately storms of this charac-
ter are extremely rare. One occurred
throughout Minnesota and Dakota
fifteen years ago, but no other of like
character has happened till the one
that swept over the whole Northwest
Wednesday and Thursday. This
storm seems to have extended through
Nebraska, Iowa, a part of Wisconsin,
Dakota and Minnesota, though its
blizzard character was considerably
modified by local conditions in some
parts of the wide region over which it
swept. The larger number OF the
casualties in Dokota seem to be due
less to the severity of the storm there
than to the fact that it was immedi-
ately preceded by fine and compar-
atively warm weather, which tempted
an unusually large number of people
to make journeys of considerable dis
lance across the prairies. Some of
them were caught on foot on the
prairies, lost their way in the binding
snow and persisted.

THE DEMOCRATS AND COMMERCE.

THE DEMOCRATS AND COMMERCE.
WHAT FREE TRADERS HAVE DONE TO
DESTROY OUR CARRYING TRADE.
New York Mail and Express.
We have been recently talking about
the influence of the tariff on commerce,
and We find that protection has decided
ly benefited the merchant as it has the
wOrkingman, the manufacturer and the
farmer. The free traders have profess
ed to have great deal of affection for
the merchant, and especially to desire
what they call the reestablishment of
our merchant marine. The free traders,
however, are the very people who are
responsible for the decay of the mer-
chant marine. They and their friends
were hostile to the Union and brought
on the war of secession. The first null
LITIGATION act passed by South Carolina
was directed against protective tariff
law. The war af secession was under
taken and sustained by the men who are
now trying to destroy American indus
tries by abolishing the tariff. They de-
strOyed the American commerce with
their cruisers, built in England with bor-
rowed money from England, manned by
Englishmen and coaled at English sta
tions. They are now seeking to reward
their allies by turning over to them the
American market, which they will con-
troll if the Government remains in pos
session of the Democratic party. All
the time they profess to have at heart
the welfare of the merchant marine.
How do they show their affection for it?
Trade is waiting for US, but we cannot
sustain steamship lines in competition
with foreign vessels that are supported
and subsidized by the Government. Our
own companies do not ask for a subsidy.
They ask only that the Government
should pay to them fair remuneration
for carrying the mails. This the Dem
ocratic administration refuses to do.
Even when Congress appropriates mon
ey for the steamship service, the Dem
Ocratic Postmaster General refuses to
expend it for the purpose for which it
was intended.
This refusal of the Democrats to do
what is asked makes it absolutely i'm
possible to run steamships to South
America, whose trade we might COM
mand if we had only the facilities for
transporting it. This indicates how
much sincerity there is in free trade
professions of regard for our merchant
marine. The Democratic party first
drive our flag from the ocean and now
refuse to do anything for its restora-
ton.

SELLING CROPS.

PlOughman.
1t is quite as essential to have a good
market for crops as it is to be able to
produce them in the outset.
After sufficient quantity is secured
for the home table, the rest of the product
should be disposed of at the best prices
possible.
A fine quality of fruit or vegetables
sells itself, but there must be demand
for the particular fruit or vegetable rails
ed sufficiently near the. producer to make
it possible to dispose of it before it has
deteriorated.
There is time to market produce,and
that must be regarded if success is hop
ed for. 1t is decidedly best to market
as much produce as possible in the i'm
mediate vicinity of ones home, and to
sell directly to the consumer. In this
way usually better prices are obtained,
as there are no middle-men to get their
share, and there is also the advantage of
dealing with people whose standing is
familiarly known. But even if lower
prices must be taken as a rule, it is bet
ter to sell near home than to take the
risk of marketing at a distance.
When it is necessary to ship articles
to distant market, they should be so
sent as to insure their arrival in good
condition and in attractive shape. A
regular purchaser should be secured if
possible for all produce and the market
closely watched.
1t is better almost invariably to sell a
crop just as soon as it is ready for mark
ct than to keep it for desired better pri-
ces even if the sale seems to be at a low
er rate than can be afforded.
The sale of a crop will largely influ
ence the farmer as to the desirability of
continuing to raise such a crop year
after year.

THE REAL WHISKY PARTY.

The REAL WHISKY BAhI1.
Cleveland Leader.
In the Democratic campaign text
book the sections Of the Mills bill from
80 to 40. inclusive, are omitted. These
are the sections which make that bill es-
sentially a moonshining measure, and
commend it to the only free whisky par
ty of the United States. One of the
sections mentioned authorizes the Sec
retary of the Treasury to exempt from
the supervision of the internal revenue
departments, gaugers, store-keepers, and
other agents, all distillerieS having ca
pacity of less than twenty-bushels day.
That is to say,the amount of the product
reported for federal taxation is to be
left to the honor of the distillers. An
other section repeals all laws (which
impose any special taxes upon manu-
facturers of stills, retail dealers in
liquors, and retail dealers in malt liquors" :"
If man believes that small fry whisky
revenue agents in the backwoods of the
South, would honestly report the full
amount of their product, or any amount
at all, if relieved from careful watching
by government agents, he may not see
at glance that the trainers of the meas
ure, in their desire to please the South,
intended to virtually destroy the inter
nal revenue system in that section, while
maintaining it in the North, where all
the liquor is made in large distilleries.
Everybody else, however, will under
stand the situation at once. The abOli-
tiOn of the special tax upon liquor sell
ers, also, is a premium upon the multi
plicatiOn of saloons, and could have
been designed for no other purpose than
to please liquor dealers.
All this pandering TO whisky-makers
and whisky sellers no doubt accounts
for the manner in which Democratic
liars call the Republican party a free
whisky party. \ lie must be very stu
pid, very vicious, and very impudent to
be really popular with Democratic
speakers and newspaper scribblerS. The
mere fact that practically all the temper
ance legislation ever accomplished in
the Northern States has been of Repub-
lican origin, and rendered effective by
Republican votes, would hardly have
made the ''free whisky" cry brazen and
silly enough to suit Democratic hypo
critics and fools.
