ORIGIN OF NAMES,
Scores of Them Are Based on God and
Christian Festivals.

Il
! Christian Festivals.
! Names compounded with one or other
, OF the words which express the Deity
; have always been common with the He
, brews as well as with Christian and pa
gan nations. The pagans had but few
! names so com bined with the creative
| power in which they were unbelievers,
but these few seem to have been quite
popular, as may be proven by the legions
of such names as Theocritus, Theophi-
lus. Theognis, Theodorus, Theophanes,
! Timotheus and others with ''Theo" and
its counterparts as prefix. After the
rise of the Christian religion the above
enumerated names became quite COM
mon with believers in Jesus, but seem
to have fallen into corresponding disuso
among the pagans. Among the Greek
God names we find. Theosthenes, signi-
flying strength Of God: Theopemptus,
sent by God; Theoctistus, God-madei
! Theodulus, servant of God: Theog-
nostus. known of God; Theophylact,
guarded by God: Theotimus. hon.

Latin languages express the name

doretus, Theodorus (the same as the
pagans). Theodotus. Adeodatus. Deus
debit, etc; the last peculiar form. il
seems, did not become common until
about the end Of the seventh century,
A. D., after it had been borne by the
sixth Archbishop Of Canterbury, the
first Saxon occupant OF the primatial
see. OF Latin names Of the same class
may be noted, Deiculus. worshipper of
God: Deiferus, bearer of God: Deogra-
titus, thanks be 20 God; Quodoultdeus,
signifying what God Wills The last
is a very common name in Egypt and
the Barbary States of North Africa.

To Christianity also may be referred
many other names From redemption
we have Redemptus and Re
paratus; from salvation we get Sal
vias. SOlvianus. Soteris and Softer From
the word baptism, which IS also directly
connected with the religion of Christ.

also supply US with many pr@nomens

festival. and Natalis and Natalia. from

SHOULD grain be fed wet or dry? That
depends upon the condition of the other
food, says the Jersey Bulletin. If the
COW is on grass, without dry hay, or
silage is fed instead of hay, the grain
(which should be ground) need not be
wet But if the remainder OF her food
Is dry hay it should be cut fine, moist
ened and the ground grain sprinkled
over and mixed through it Otherwise
it may happen that the grain becomes
impacted into hard balls in the stomach
and produces serious cases of indiges-
ton. But moistened does not mean
sloppy.

A Protest in Regard to the Swamp Land
Act.

Some of our representative citizens met
at the Court House, on Wednesday of
last week, with Capt. J. J. Slack in the
Chair, and passed the following resolu-
tions in regard to the erroneous entries of
swamp lands:
Whereas, BY recent opinion of the
Attorney-General, based upon a de-
cision of the Supreme Court, holding
the title to large area of swamp
lands to be invalid on account OF
wrong scrip having been issued in the
original entries Of said land, and
Whereas, Although the said entries
were made in good faith, and pay
ments therefore were such as the ac-
credited agents Of the State demanded
and received, and such as were of val
ue to the State, and in its settlement
with said agents, the State found moth
ing of which to- complain, and that
the State for years, in some instances
forty, has been collecting taxes on
same, the Legislature recently in ses-
sion passed an act to allow persons
who claim under said original entries
to protect their titles, has assumed
the correctness of said opinion, and
though said act has declared that the
title to the said land remains in the
State therefore. be it
Resolved, First, that we, citizens O.
Grenada County, do earnestly protest
against such injustice.
Second, that, while our own county
is not largely affected, we are unwil
ling that our fellow-citizens essewher'

unjustly extorted from them money t.
which the State has no right, ant

Eexpensive litigation that will resul
if this great injustice is not success
fully resisted.
Third, that we suggest to thos
whose titles are declared invalid, IL

to redeem until then, we can 60 to tn

The farmer is now the subject of deep
concern to the eastern press. 1t is assert
ed that the eastern farmer is fairly
swamped by the cheap produce of the
west. Administration organs discuss the
subject, but do not say a word about re-
duclng the farmers burdens. So long as
100000, 900 are taken needlessly from the
people by tax collectors so long will the
farmer suffer. So long as the public ex-
penditures are extravagant so long will
the farmers scanty earnings be still less.
Another simple remedy is mixed farming.
The tillers of the soil should diversity
their products. They should try to raise
at home the sugar, coffee, tea and fruits
that are imported from the West Indies,
Brazil or Asia. If these products were
raised at home there would be less com
petition in other branches of agriculture.
Until systematic, persistent eff
forts are made to grow tea and
coffee no one can safely assert that they
cannot be raised in some part of this
continental country, which includes the
almost tropical climate of Louisiana and
the mild, equable temperature OF Califor.
MIA. In the production of beet sugar
alone even the eastern farmer might find
profit and security from hard times.

COLONEL Wheeler has found the Off
cial returns for the election OF delegate
to congress in 1885. They are in the hand
writing of Governor Thomas Francis
Meagher and show a slim vote compared
with that of Inst year. Mclean and Up
son were the candidates. Placer mining
was on the wane and people We're des-
perate. Beaverhead polled only 244 votes
and Mlssoula 1872. Deer Lodge cast /, 133
votes for Mclean and 500 for Epson.
Madison, which still profted by the
wealth that Alder gulch had yielded, gave
1885 votes for Mclean and 1902 for Up
son. Gullatin, now so well settled, Cast
only SO votes, while Lewis and Clarke,
then called Edgerton county, gave Nc
Lean III votes and Epson 45s. The total
vote of jefferson was l43. The total vote
of Montana, which vas 39,s46 in 1888
was then only $3.50, being less than Deel

WHEAT OR OATS.

There seems to be doubt IN the minds
of some ranches as to which is the better
crop to raise, viz, wheat or oats. We
wish to call the %rancher's attention to the
following figures, showing the proceeds
from an acre IN an average year: An
are of wheat, yielding 30 bushels would
at so cents per bushel, or $1.33 per 10C
pounds, pay $24. An acre of oats yield
ing SO bushels would at So cents per
bushel produce $1S. Estimated by the
the 100 pounds the oats would pay at vi
per 100 pounds, $1S, and at $1.25 per 100
pounds. $22.5O.
1t will be seen from the foregoing that
wheat pays $3.50 per acre more when oats
are $1.25@cwt. and SO per acre more when
oats are 81 per cwt. There is, of course,
some chance hat oats will decline to 70
cents per cwt., as they did two years ago.
But hard wheat always brings cash and
finds ready sale, while oats are often a
drug on the market. The Cataract mill,
we learn, viii agree to take all the wheat
the rancher raises and will undertake
to pay at least so cents per bushel
or $1.33 per 100 pounds, cash, for all the
good hard wheat they can get, The
chances are they Will pay more than $1.39
per 100 pounds, as wheat is rising IN
value down east. Considering all the
above facts, it is clear that it will pay our
farmers to put in considerable wheat this
war

THE Benwell murderer is causing much
concern in Canada, since it is supposed to
be only one of a series of atrocious crimes.
Birchell, who murdered Benwell, was
last year in Princeton, where he called
himself Lord Somerset and lived extrav-
agantly. He subsequently returned to
England, where he advertised for a gen
tleman's son with $2,750 to learn farming
on his Canadian ranch. Benwell and
Pelly, two young E%nglishmen of good
position, accepted this offer and went
with Birchell to Canada. While near
Princeton, Birchell lured Beuwell to a
swamp and there shot him dead. The
murderer then deliberately cut from Ben
wells linen the name which it bore. Ae
intended to throw the body into a lake
near by, but could not haul it through the
dense underbrush that lay between. Some
days later a farmer discovered the body
and near it a cigar case with Benwell's
name thereon. Birchell returned to
Niagara and told Pelly that Benwell had
gone up the country. When news came
of the finding of the body he coolly re-
marked to Pelly that the cigar case found
zeal it bore Benwell's name. The MUIR
derer's purpose was to possess himself of
Benwell's baggage, which was worth
about $1,000. Mrs. Birchell, a respecta-
BILE young woman,ls supposed to have been
aware of the crime. She is under arrest
as an accessory after the fact. As Biz
chell had no farm at all, it is evident that
he had murder and robbery in mind from
tho start

The proceedings OF the recent Intel
State Cattlemen's convention at Fort
Worth, Texas, were marked by modera-
ton and sense. General resolutions were
adopted. According to the telegraphic
reportt the preamble alludes to the de-
pressed condition of the live stock indus
try of the country, the causes of which
it claims are not due to over-production,
but rather TO the manipulations to on
troll the market, and for the purpose of
relieving the industry, the resolutions re-
quest congress to pass laws declaring the
combination now existing or which may
hereafter be formed, unlawful and pun
ishable by such fines and penalties
as will make the law effective.
The resolutions favor national inspection,
and call upon the governors of the states
and territories interested to bring the
matter before their respective legislatures
and request them to make laws to insure
a more healthy condition of this import
ant industry. The resolutions further
declare as the sense of the convention,
that the weighing of live stock in cars
after the manner practiced by various
railways, is detrimental to the live stock
interests, and favor a system of car load
shipments without weights, recommend
ing shippers to give their business to such
railways as shall comply with the wishes
expressed. A reasonable reduction of the
oleomargarine tax is favored; also, the
free and unlimited coinage of silver and
reciprocal relations with Mexico. Adeep
water harbor upon the Gulf coast of Texas
is pronounced absolutely essential to the
live stock interests Of Texas and the great
northwest.
