ready for the first crop of grain. 1t
has been estimated that there are over
10000 acres of bottom lands in the
Chehalis valley susceptible of grain
cultivation, and up to the present time
but small beginning has been made
in clearing and utilizing these valuable
lands. Even the so-called sandy prai-
ries of our upland interior are found by
experience to be far above the estimate
set upon them by the early settlers.
On q ranch about six miles from this
city, q farmer who knows the worth of
persevering labor has, for term Of
years, raised twenty bushels of wheat
per acre from despised sandy prairie"
lands that make up large portion of
his homestead. 1t is significant fact
that similar crops on prairie lands adj
joining his own have proved total fail
ures, while he raised, as stated above,
twenty bushels of prime quality wheat.
Nature has done much for the far
mer, but it devolves upon him to do
his quota towards evolving from crude
ingredients the vital principles that

Ruffianism on the Virginia ard North Car
olina Borders.
RICHMOND, Va, July 80 Gov. Lee re-
ceived letter to-day from Common
wealth's Attorney Moore, of PatricK
county, in which the latter appeals TO the
Governor to aid him in Furnishing des
peradoes who are guilty of lawless acts
along the North Can DINA and Virginia
border. The letter saws: Last Sunday,
while religious worship was being con-
due ed in he county near the North Car
olina line, one John Smith shot off pis-
tol near spring, remarking that if he
and his companions had some more
whiskey they would take the preacher
from the pulpit and have some fun.
J. W. Griggs, an officer who was pres
ent, went TO the spring. and finding John
Smith with pistol in his hand ordered
his arrest. After severe struggle Smith
was disarmed and given IN charge of an
officer. As soon as he was placed under
arrest he began calling in a loud voice
for his comrade William Smith, to come
to his rescue and shoot the - rascal.
William Smith, who was but a short dis
lance off, came running up with pistol
in his hand and opened fire on the per-
sons having John Smith in custody.
Bystanders attempted to arrest him,
and during the struggle VIM. Smith shot
a young man who had hold of him three
times, once in the arm and once through
the shoulders. Griggs was shot through
the bowels and died the next day. John

fering people will shortly ring down
the curtain on the farce which for more
than two decades has been going on in
their sight.
If ever in the history of Maryland a
change was needed in the State Gov
eminent, that change is needed now.
1t is time, indeed, to turn the sausage
eaters out. 1t is time to go back to
first principles ana to old methods. 1t
is time to lnfuse into our State affairs
some of the blood of honesty and fit
ness, so that our concerns may no
longer be administered in the interest
of a few place holders and the men,
bers of a selfish and grasping coterle,
but for the good of the whole people,
regardless of party affiliations.
Ii IS perfectly clear that the Demo-
cratic party in Maryland has lost the
power of governing wisely. 1t has given
itself completely into the hands of II e
sausage eaters and there is no hope
IN it.
The people will have opportunity in
November next to wrest at least one
branch of the State Government from
the control OF these men. They will
have the chance to send to Annapolis
a Legislature which will be above the
influence OF German and his satellites
and from which some honest and val
liable legislation may confidently be
expected.
To secure this result they must look,
however, for their representatives out
side of the ring-controlled nominees
of the Democratic party and we trust
they VII be able to find them in the
candidates 10 be named by the Repub-
lican organization of the State.

CINCINNATI SALOON KEEPERS.

One Hundred and Sixty-Four ViOlators OF
the Law Arraigned.
CINCINNATI, July 29.-The law-break-
ing saloon keepers find themselves in a
bad box to-day. All the offenders, 1854
10 number, were arraigned in the Police
Court this morning. The ARRAY of the
violators formed solid phalanx in the
outer hallway in four lines, close together
and extending TO the street. 1t was seen
early in the day that Judge Ormston
meant business. At the opening of Court
he announced: "We will have every one
of these saloonists here in Court. Call
their names. / want to see whether they
are coming into Court with brass band
or not. I'll give them chance to do it. {"
The first man called did not respond
Issue capias for his arrest and let his
bond be forfeited" said the Judge. "We
will see whether he has more business in
some saloon than in this Court" In a
few minutes he was brought in by an
officer. His name was Frank Sceeier
beck. Nearly all OF the 164 demanded
jury trial and their cases were post
poned indefinitely. Concerning the mat
ter of repeated violations of the law by
The same men, the Court remarked:

so in this matter. Therefore, in order to

The trial of WartiiGger's case for yes

day. and he will be tried by jury. This
afternoon Judge Ormston gave the de-
PENDANTS Touchdown blow, which, it is
believed, will put an end to the open de
fance of the Sunday law. He said:
SIN the future bonds will only be al
lowed to be given at the Clerks Office az
the Central Station, and the clerks will
not be allowed to remain at the different
stations in other parts of the city. Be
sides this, after each bond is made out,

ion will make it impossible to issue but

oners will have to stay behind the bars

it appears that Cecil has larger num-

White Man Lashed at Hagerstown for

The passage of the act of 'S2 for wife
beating, occurred here this afternoon
The prisoner was white man named
David G. Herbert, resident of the Gear
foss district. this county. Herbert is a
tall, we'll proportioned man, while his
wife, who made the complaint is fragile,
delicate looking woman. At the trial this
morning before Justice Bitner, it was
proven that Herbert. while intoxicated
last Friday, beat and choked his wife
into unconsciousness. While she was in
that condition he grabbed a chair, swear
ing that he intended TO kill her. He was
prevented from carrying his threat into
execution by his son wrestling the chair
from him.
Herbert had been guilty of.tbe same
offence several times before, and the JUS
tee determined to impose salutary re-
straint upon his future conduct by sen
fencing him to receive Is lashes, and an
imprisonment of five days in Jail. The
sheriff was rotified and at once made
preparations TO carry the sentence into
execution. A thick piece of leather. two
feet in length tapering TO the end, and
joined to a wooden handle, was selected
for the lash. The prisoner, after being
stripped to the waist, was made to stand
handcuffed to the bars of door in the
Jail. One of the deputies counted the
strokes while the sheriff laid them on
with force, and in quick succession.
During the whipping the prisoner
writhed repeatedly, and several means
escaped him After the last stroke had
fallen it was found that portion of the
prisoners back was covered with welts,
and his right side, which the end of the
strap had dashed, was badly discolored.
and in several places ridges of clotted
blood had been raised.

field, the correspondent of the society
