Driving Out the CauIenen.

Immigration is coming with resistless
tide. Ex-Governor R)utt one of the great
cattle owners of the west, when speaking of
how the ranges were being so rapidly set
tied, recently said: "The COW must give way
to Nancy and the baby" The first indica-
ton of the coming of this great tide of i'm
migration was manifested by cattlemeu put
ting up wire fences and nclosiug vast areas
of lard. This sufficed for time, bnt immi-
grafton still continued, and then after much
litigation the courts said: Take down your
wire fences" As the cattlemen oGcunied
these great ranges for quarter OF a century
before it was ever thought possible for them
TO have any value for agricultural purposes,
it is not strange that thoy should have made
the determined fight they have. The plow-
share now giistens in the old "American
Deseit' and the old cattle trails are being
turned into farms. The east can hardly
realize the wonderful changes that are TAX
ing place. Within twenty flye years the
buffalo, which used to roam these plains by
the tens Of thousands, are almost extinct
The great herds Of the cattle kings took The
place Of the bisou, hut now the cattle ruuges
are being turned into farms.
What will be the result? Thr general im
| preston is that there will be more cattle, but
with more owners, The public domain viii
soou all be taken, which will necessitate thu
dividing and subdvidtug Of the great herds
| The result will come about in a natural way
aud without loss, but rather with roft. A,
the grazing area becomes more circumscribe,
the greater the necessity for winter feeding
aud the production of some kind of feed tina
will more readily prepare stock for th,

j. e. Lowell ON Religion.

81 fear that when when we indulge our
selves in the amusement of going without
a religion, we are not, perhaps, aware how
much we are sustained at present by an
enormous mass all about us of religious
feelings and religious convictions so that,
whatever it may be safe for us to think
for us who have great advantages, and have
been brought up in such way that a GER
tain moral direction has been given to our
character--I do not know what would be-
come of the less favored classes of man
kind if they undertook to play the same
game.
"Whalever defects and imperfectness may
attach to a few points of the doctrina sy

ply what all Christians believe-it will be
found that Cavanism, or any ism which
claims an open Bible and proclaims cIuci-
fled and risen Christ, is infinitely preferable
to any form of polite and polished skepti-
cism, which gathers as its votalies the de-
generate sons OF heroic ancestors, who, hav-
ing been aimed in society and educated
in schools, the foundation, of which were
laid by men of faith and piety, now turn

have climbed up, and persuade men to live
without God, aud leave them to die without

A New Method.

The question of preserving fruits, vege-
tables and meat from decay has been one
that has cost great deal of study and
money in the way of experimenting, but
the problem seems TO have been solved by
the ozone process.
A representative Of this paper was invited
by MIR. w. P. Voshell, coal dealer, on Mar
ket street above Ninth, TO examine jar of
peaches which were preserved by this
method on August 18th. The fruit was then
ripe and mellow, ready to eat. 1t has re-
tanned its original condition up to this writ
ing. The peaches are in glass jar and can
be lifted out and examined and appear TO be
as good as ever,
The process can be applied to ali kinds Of
fruit Vegetables and meats with equal sue
cess. Water can be impregnated with the
ozone and whole tomatoes placed in it will
keep as long as desired. The expense is
trIhling as on large scale the work can be
done for about one dollar per ton Of fut.
The lady who owns the patent is said to
have spent large sum in perfecting it and
thinks that her hopes are fully realized

Pay the Man Doing the Work.
Daily Republican,

Daily Republican,
The manner in which Judge Walter Cum
minis has acted has left this city in very
unfortunate predicament. Had he before
leaving the city sent his resignation to the
governor it might have saved considerable
trouble, and possibly some litigation. Ac-
cording to the act Of creating this court the
governor can appoint the judge, but no
power except the general assembly San re-
move him. Another section provides that
Sin the case of sickness, absence, interest
in the cause or proceeding, or any inability
of the city judge, the associate judge of the
Superior Court, resident in New Cattle
county, may either perform the duties of the
city judge or designate in writing some
suitable person to discharge such duties"
There is however, no provision made for
paying this judge protein the salary at
tached to the Office. We do not, however,
believe that it was the intention of the
legislature that any one should be requested
or req uired to perform the duties of the po-
sition without pay but still this is exactly
the way the matter stands at present. If
we are correctly informed, Mr.. Lyman per-
formed all the duties of the Office for
month or more without receiving cent for
his work, as all the checks are made out in
Mr.. Cummins' name and await his order.
We presume that Mr.. Turner is in the
same position as Mr. Lyman, and we are
certainly opposed to it, If Judge Cummins
cannot be removed until the legislature con-
venes we hope that council will meet this
matter in a bold and fearless manner, and
and have the checks drawn in favor of the
man that does the work. Then il Mr.. Cum
Minis feels himself aggrieved in not being
paid for work which he does not perform,
let him enter suit for the money. We do
not believe that jury could be found who
would give him verdict, and if there was,
it would be better for the city 10 pay the bill
than to ask a man to perform the highly re-
sponsibe duties of the Office without pay.

SLEEPING AFTER MEALS.
A Widespread but Mistaken BeIief-Rest
for the Brain.

A Widespread but Mistaken BeIieT-Rcst
for the Brain.
There is widespread superstition, cher
ished by the great majority of the people,
chat to sleep Immediately after they have
taken food is to endanger health, to favor
the onset of apoplexy, etc.-a Super titian
based on the assumption that during sleep
the brain is normally oongested. There is,
no doubt, such a thing as congestive sleep,
but during normal sleep the brain is al emic
When person has taken a fairly abundant
lunch or dinner the stomach demand a
special influx Of boJ wherewith TO accom-
plsh its work of digestion; no organ can
more cas- iy comply with that demand than
the brain, which, when in full activity. is
suffused with maximum amouut Of the
vital fluid.
But a derivation Of blood from the brain
to the stomach can only take place, except in
exceptionally full blooded and vigorous per
sons, on the condition that the cerebral func.
tions be meanwhile partially or wholly sus.
pended. Hence many people after taking

ThePuIIIng Down PoItcy.

1t is principle of law, as old as the
science of jurisprudence, that the plaintiff
in an eiectment suit must recover on the
strength of his own title. 1t will not avail
him to attack and tear down the title of the
adverse climant and occupant. This is
principle of universal application in the af-
fairs OF this world. Men must ever, in all
things, win on their own tit es. They must
succeed upon their own merits. They must
build up upon their own foundations. A
man never raises himself by pulling others
down, never makes himself by unmaking
others. Ruins do not make the foundations
for permanent, safe stru ctures. The stately
building stands solidly, not upon the crumb-
ling ruins of other structures, but upon new
ly quarried rock. No new republics have
been builded upon the ruins Of Greece or
Rome. No new civilizations have arisen
upon the shattered and decayed civilizations
Of Palestine and Egypt. The fairest broad
est and richest civilization of all ages have
arisen on the youngest continent. The re-
public of this better era, of these times
Frightening for all the people, has been built
up in the new world and upon new fouuda-
tions. The fabrics Of reputation and fame
that endure, staunch and fair, are buided
not on shattered prospects and ruined hopes,
but upon merit and accomplishment.
The man who seeks success over the ruins
of Others may sometimes ipjure those whom
he assails, but he never permanently helps
himself. He, indeed seldom has the salts
ietsii:fes uora tb4n TEMPORARY
harm or partial defeat upon anyone else.
The policy of trying to rise by putting down
is the policy of conscious weakness, OF
stealth, of pretense. The one who persues
it in business, in professional life or in poll
tics must move through the darkened and
devious ways of intrigue. He must operate
through the blight Of falsehood. He must
resort to the secret thrust of nsnuation and
the cowardly stab Of slander. He must be-
come, indeed, the assassin of character.
And when lie fails, as sooner or later he will,
how mean and miserable failure it is! II
is a failure, without hope ur cheer. 1t is
the loss of character, Of reputation, of self.
respect. There is nothing upon Which to re-
build.
Those who in the competitions and strife
of life adopt the policy of reliance in self
the policy of strength and courage, may fail
but there will be left honor and hope ant
self-respect. With these there will be th,
resources for new efforts for braver fights

Loves Faith.

If one should come and tell me that the
birds
Had lost their voices; that the flowers no
more
Gave forth soft odors; that for lack of dew
The glass blades dropped at dawn time
that the shells
Had left tho oceans shore, the pearls its
bed;
That frost and fruitage had congeniel
grown,
That the lost sister of the Pleiades
Had reappeared in Taurus; that the sun
Had wheeled its golden chariot TO the
north;
If one should come and tell me this, dear
love,
l might belisve him. but if one should
come,
And tell me you were false; why, should
stand
With folded arms, and dart thro' him a
glance
So keenly edged with scornful disbelief
That back he would recoil like April
clouds
Before the advancing sun, and call upon
The mantle of his wrath to cover him.
