DEAR SIR Your letter to +. II.
Grerson, in reply to one BY f. F.
Larimore to you, was handed me for

18th inst, we would say that We cannot
consider your proposit on as published
in II challenge form in the last issue of
your paper, for these reasons:
ls'. As Mr.. l. stated to you, your
proposition is most decidedly one sided
affair, as you leave it optional for you to
change every man in your club, but
would pin US down to a certain nine
men.
End. We are the holders of the
championship, by virtue of our winning
the tournament at Genesee, which was
open to all, and it you desire to take thai,
honor from us, come down to Lewiston
and We will give you the opportunity.
We now make the following PROPOSE
tons:
LIST. We agree to play you at Lewis
ton for $500 a side, if you play the sam e
men as you played at Genesee, the 9TH
inst, We to do the same.
2nd. We agree to play you at Lewis
tor for $500 side if you play none but
Moscow men, aud we play none but
Lewiston men.
The conditions of these propositions
are: If You accept the first the game
will have to be played before the 4th of
July, as some OF the players of that nine
are going away. If you accept the
second, We must know that all men you
play have resided continuously in
Moscow, from and after the Sth day Of
june, 1889, aud We accept the same
terms. our men all having lived in
Lewiston from and after the same date,
and the game to be played July 5, 1889,

senator Carpenter Simply Unseated
the Indiana Senate


the Indiana Senate.
The debate on the Ray-Carpenter
contested election case in the Indiana
Senate was closed at O'Clock on the
afternoon of the 25th. The major
lty report unseating Carpenter was
then adopted by party vote.
The Republicans, before the re-
suit had been announced, discovered
that the resolution unseating contained
the words ''unseat and expel." They
raised the point of order that it reQuir-
ed a two-thirds vote to expel member
and the point was sustained by the
chair. Senator Urmston Dem. moved
to reconsider the vote and the Repub-
llcans raised the additional point of or
der that he did not vote with the party
prevailing on the original question
and therefore could not move
to reconsider. The lieutenant
governor also sustained this point of or
der. His decision was appealed from
and by party vote was not sustained.
Carpenter was then unseated bya party
vote. Upon the resolution to seat Ray,
the contestant, Howard DEM moved
an indefinite postponement and his mo-
ton prevailed. But nine Democrats
voted in the negative. The action leaves

Shelby and Decatur Counties, unrepre-
scented in the Senate, and the governor

More of Alfalfa.

Since this most W wonderful forage plant
is attracting more and more attention in
the PORTIONS of the country where not
heretofore raised, the following extract
from recent article on agriculture in
Colorado. by Prof. A. f. Blount, A. NJ,
of the Colorado Agricultural College,
will prove of interest:
The most important forage crop of
Colorado for stock feeding, the cheap
est and the one out of which the most
can be made, is alfalfa. Nothing excels
tin growth it is exceedingly tenacious,
holding on wherever it has root, through
hot, dry weather, glorying in the ex-
tremes. 1t throws down a strong tap
root, which, when it finds moisture, has
the ability to withstand the severest
drouth. For hay it is remarkably pro-
life, making three and sometimes four
cuttings during the season. The aver
age growth of the first and second cut
tinGs is about an inch day and the yield
of hay per acre varies from one and a
half to two tons per cutting. On some
land AS high as seven tons per acre have
been made in one season, and seven
bushels and a half of seed per acre the
fist cutting. As a feed, nothing in the
forage line exceeds it. The amount of
nutritlve matter 1t contains entities it to
the first place. Cattle, horses, sheep,
and hogs all like and grow fat on it.
When fed with roots and grain, no bet
ter beef can be put upon the market.
For mich COWS it is the hay of all
others. For sheep pasture it excels.
One stockman claims to have pastured
5000 sheep the year round on 300 acres
ten sheep per acre-that the sheep
sheared from ten to twelve pounds of
wool, worth 20 cents. Deducting all ex-
pense in herding, loss of lambs, rent,
etc, and adding lambs, each sheep paid
a profit of $3.50 per acre, or S25 for ten.
For horses on the farm alfalfa is the
best hay. 1t produces no heaves, no de-
rangement of the digestive organs, and
no disease follows when it is fed as hay.
In the alfalfa pasture hogs do remark
ably well. They grow rapidly and fat
ten, and when fed grain the pork is ex-

Beer for the Workingmen.

-, FROM the a lDany journal.
III Is perhaps not generally known
that IN many establishments in Albany
%orklngmen demand the privilege of
bringing beer into the factories for con-
sumption at the noon hour, and in at
least one establishment beer is paid for
by the proprietors. In this connection
lew are aware that in all the photographic
establishments of this country where
the work is mainly done by German
Vorklngmen a stipulation requires the
ropretors to furnish beer a Il part OF
ne employees wages. In the mammoth
ithographlc department of Judge at
New York, for instance, where 900 men
are employed, each one receives, under
the terms of his contract with his en-
ployers, three pints of beera day. The
beverage Is lagerbeer and over seven
barrels are thus consumed daily. An
effort was made at one time TO see II a
reform could not be instituted in this
matter, but such serious trouble was
threatened that it had to be abandoned.
NO lager, no work.

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.
MOUsEHOLD AND AGRICULTURAL
TOPICS DISCUSSED.
A Budget of Useful Information Relating
TO the Farm, Orchard, Stable, Parlor, and
Kitchen.
THE FARM.
Keeping Soil Fertile.

At the institute held at Darlington,
Wis, the following items of interest and
facts in the experience of successful
farmers were brought out concerning
keeping the soil fertile:
j. NJ. Smith, of Green Bay, said that
every farmer should have a compost
heap into which should be put all
coarse manures, all weeds that chance to
grow in waste places and fence corners,
all potatoes, squash, bean, and other
vines. This heap should be worked over
occasionally, until 1t is thoroughly
rotted and pulverized, ana, on most soils
at least, apply it to the surface at plant
ing time. Next in value TO the compost
heap is clover. Wherever clover Will
grow there is no good excuse for a man
having a poor farm. On some soil plas-
ter is very valuable; on others ii seems
comparatively valueless.
Better results are obtained from the
compost manure than from manure di-
rectlv from the stable; ashes do not
harden the soil, but produce the oppo-
site result; salt is not n fertilizer in it
self, but its influence upon some soils is
highly satisfactory; there is fertility in
some soils which have been burned over
many times.
Hiram Smith, of Sheboygan Falls.
said that he Is using all the ashes and
spent lime that he can get, and regards
it cheap fertilizer at 81 a load and haul
it himself. He finds that he can best
keep up the fertility of his soil by feed
ing cows. He cannot afford to pay S12
ton for bran to feed them simply for
its feeding value, but from every ton of
bran fed is produced 80 worth of ferti-
lizer to deposit in the soil. He does not
turn his COWS to pasture cannot afford
to-when land passes $50 an acre III
value. 1t requires more labor to pursue
the soiling system, but the profit is far
better and the fertility of the sol! is
more easily maintained; it means more
cows, more hired men, more fertility to
deposit in the soil, and largely increased
profits.

BOGUS BARGAINS IN DRY COODs
A st. Paul Swindler who Is Said to Rav.
Hefrauded MANY Persnns

bchauueu many Persons.
A shrewd and extensively worked
scheme for the swindling of people
looking for bargains in dry goods
and hosiery has been uneartbed at 81
Paul. A letter from J. Q. A. CampbeIl
editor of the BelIefontaine fObiol Re,
publican. which WAS received on
the 10Th, inquired after the reliability
of one {. III. Warner, who had
sent him proposition for advertising
to be paid Tor by check on demand. Mr..
Campbell was suspicious and desired in
formation. The advertising matter Of
tered WAS In the shape of reading no.
tees to the effect that Wood, Thornburp
Co., importers of London, New York
and San Francisco, had purchased large
stocks of fine plush, silk AMI hosiery at
a great sacrifice in London and
would sell it in limited quantities to
individuals In this country at prices
away below actual cost. No goods would
be sent {. .. d., but the cash must ac-
company the order. All orders must be
sent to Z. ii. Warner, Union Block, st.
Paul, by whom the goods would be
promptly shipped. No such firm as
the one mentioned is known either
IN San Francisco or in New York.
and 1t cannot be found entered
agencies. 1t was found that Warner
had an office i'll the building named
which he took week ago. He seldom
appeared at his office, but a great deal
of mail was delivered there and secured
by him when he saw fit to 90 after it.
His "oiiice" was entered and forty-eight
letters from various parts of Ohio, In
diana, ii inois, Missouri, Wisconsin and
Kansas were found awaiting his arrival.
Many of these were in ladies writing and
are believed To be orders for the goods
advertised. a marked newspaper di-
rectory showed that he had sent out
his advertising matter to the states
named and the letters are answers with
enclosed money. A few DAYS ago he
bought half yard OF fine silk from one
Of the leading firms Of that city, which
he had cut up in small pieces, apparent

be desired. No other goods OF any
kind were found, and the police re
