MALONE FOR GOVERNOR.

Malone has tied Virginia to his chariot wheel, and yesterday he was made the candidate for governor by the republi- can state convention. Those who will be most pleased with this action are the democrats. They can defeat Malone more easily than any other man in the state: that is, if there were no inter- they must be prepared to count on, for Matt Quay's son has been in Richmond recently conferring with Malone, and there are plenty of indications that the republican leader proposes to take a hand in the contest. Those who know Quay's interruptions methods and his yillainous use of poodle can easily guess what this means. If money can accom- plish it Malone will be elected, and the democrats of the Old Dominion may prepare to look this fact straight in the face. And the federal patronage is being judiciously worked for the same end, Malone has the call with the powers at Washington, and no man can hope for federal recognition that is not one of his henchmen.
 The democrats have, therefore, tre- mendous struggle before them to defeat Malone. But they are encouraged by the execration in which he is held even in the ranks of the republican party, and they are hopeful that even the use of re- publican poodle will not be effective to save him from the vengeance of his enemies in his own political household. And that's why they are glad that Malone was made the nominee at yes terday's conference.

THE New Haven Palladium charges ex-Town Agent Reynolds and his friends with having put through the amend ment to section A of the general stat utes which seems to give the election of tax collector to the selectmen. What the Palladium, prompted by its assistant editor in its Chapel street annex, will next charge to MT Reynolds, we cannot say; but we should not wonder to see them charge him with the assassination of Dr Cronin or the payment to Mir Case, in defiance of the courts injunction, of counsel fees for opposing consolidation. It is supposed the editor of the Palla- Mir Reynolds as a bugaboo to frighten their childr en to sleep.
 THE reasons which MT Lees, a Phila- delphia manufacturer of ginghams who has just failed, gives for his trouble are an eloquent commentary on the new tariff that the republican party main tains is necessary for purposes of ''pro- tection.' MT Lees attributes his failure to the tax on raw materials and :says s'The only salvation for the manufac- turing industries of this country must be found in free raw material. With raw material free we could have reached out in other directions, and I am fully convinced there would be a general di- versifcation of industries. Unless con- gress removes the tariff on wool it won't be long before some of the largest factories in this country will be com pelled to close their doors." The idea of untaxed raw materials gains strength as people study it closer.

THE republican committee on ways and means is likely to have a tough time of it framing tariff bill for the next congress. With the oppressed iron and woolen industries of New England clamoring for untaNed raw materials and the tariff barons of Pennsylvania and Ohio squealing for still greater pro lection the tariff tinkers are likely to be in the condition of the poor fatalist oi whom it was said:
 He can and he can't,
 He will and he won't;
 He'll be damned if he does.

FACTS FOR FARMERS.

If you want good. perfect to,na-
toe:. keep the vines OF the ground
They require sunlight and ventilation.
Very much depends in planting
the orchard upon sound and discrimi-
mating judgment. not only in the selec-
ton Of the soil. with view Of retain
ing moisture and manures. but also the
slope and exposure. its aptitude for
natural or artificial shelter.
The feeding-places OF poultry
should be spaded up and put in some
kind Of a crop. They are excellent 10
cations for small gardens. snd usually
produce we'll, but il they are not con-
venient for garden purposes. SOW oats
on the ground. then turn on the fowls
when the oats are six inches high.
The windmill is an implement
that costs very little compared with
the advantages derived. Water
pumped into a tank can be conducted
to the barnyard or to the pasture
through pipes. thus saving the expense
Of pumps and the labor Of pumping.
Where there is no running water
troughs can be arranged for stock and
may be kept full without difficulty.
-Mulching small patches Of quack
grass or Canada thistle heavily. is
recommended as better mode of sup
preston than cultivation. II the top
already grown is well covered it be-
gins TO rot. and new growth appear
ing above the surface should be treat
ed in the same .way. One season OF
this treatment. it is asserted, will de-
stroy the weeds and enrich the soil.
Tho tendency of the times is to-
ward the cheapening of every thing
consumed by mankind. says DR.. Hos
kins in the Vermont Watchman. The
farmers can not escape this tendency.
They demand cheapness in what they
buy. and those who buy OF them nat
urally make the same demand. 1t is
inevitable. 1t behooves every man to
understand this truth. Only by under
standing it can we prosper.
The best way to harvest hay is to
cut early. SO as to secure n good green
color. Let the hay lie and have plenty
of time to dry; use the tcdder, and
then rake and cock it Loading from
the windrow is bad practice. The hay
may appear dry after the hot rays OF
the sun have poured upon it five or six
:ours. but it is so only on the outside.
1t should be cooked up and have time
to sweat before it is put in large
masses. The markets demand hay Of
good color, and it pays we'll to use ex-
ira efforts to secure such. Hay that
is cut early will bring two dollars per
ton more than that cut later and al
lowed to become yellowish.
