After all, it is Idaho, not wyoming, that

reason for this is that the Wyoming bill was
slightly amended by the Senate and had to 60
TO a conference committee, whereas the Idaho
hill passed both houses in the same form and
was ready for immediate approval. 1t was
signed Yesterday by the President, the inten-
ton of having it added to the circle of States

the law that stars shall be added to the flag

was accordingly signed in time to permit her

that it is only in the smaller places where ice
cream is made that stale cream is likely to be
used. Large manufacturers are accustomed to
use the fresh article. Hence it seems wise to
avoid the small shops which freeze their own

Kemmler has once more been sentenced to
death-for the third time. sThe time fixed for
his execution by the new method is the week
beginning August 4. 1t is possible, of course,
that some ingenious lawyer may discover some
method of again delaying what has been so
often postponed-that possibility must be con-
coded until the fatal button has actually been
touched but apparently all the legal devices
for delay have been exhausted. Why such
bitter fight against the use of electricity for
this purpose has been made, and in whose be-
half, is still a mystery
The Federal Election bill will be presented

Settled by a Compromise

The cases of L. NJ. Field and G. b.
Currie against the city of Medicine
Lodge, have been settled. Both suits
were for damages by reason of the wa
ter ditch running through the land of
plaintiffs. Both cases were tried in the
district court-the Field case twice. In
the first trial, Mrs. Field was given a
verdict for $500, and in the second
trial $1,150. Mr.. Currie was given a
verdict for $1.450. Monday night, 18th
inst, the mayor and council met and
accepted propositions for compromise
from the claimants. Mrs. Field accep-
ted the amount allowed by the jury.
81 $50, taking the $500 on deposit in the
county treasury. and accepting two piec.
es of city script for the balance, one
half payable in ten months and the 9TH
er half payable in sixteen months, each
bearing6 per cent. interest. Mr.. Currie
reduced his claim to 81, $50 and accepted
settlement on the same terms as did
Mrs. Field. The city will under this ar
rangement be responsible for the costs.
The city would have made money by
compromising these cases long ago.

Cane Culture.

There is no doubt but that the soil of
Barber county is as well, if not better,
adapted to the raising of sorghum cane
for sugar, than any county in the state
of Kansas, and if the farmers will adopt
the best methods of planting and cul-
tivating cane, it will pay them a much
larger profit than any other crop they
can raise. In my experience and OBJ
servation, the best method of planting
is this !: Plow and harrow the ground
well. and plant with check-row plant
er on the level surface. by SO doing
the plant gets the benefit of the early
warm sun, and the process of cultiva.
ton can be commenced before the weeds
get a start. When termination takes
place, the seed puts forth root down
into the ground, while the little plant
grows upward. When the plant is
about two inches high, this root dies,
and the process of putting out surface
roots starts, and as the plant obtains
most of its nourishment from the sur
face of the ground. the growth is natu-
rally slow until the surface roots are
well developed. The method of Guilt
walton should be mostly shallow, using
care to not disturb the surface roots,
especially about the time the plant
forms its first JOINT, which will be when
it is about two feet high. Cultivation
should be thorough up to this time, and
then cease. By thorough cultivation
the ground will be kept well pulverized,
and free from weeds, and will thus hold
the moisture much better. From this
time on the growth of the well nnrsed
plant will be very rapid. and the result
will be an early matured crop, with a
large yield of sugar. These few sug.
gestions are based not only upon my
own practice and observations, but af-
ter consulting many of the largest and
most progressive sorghum growers in
the state of Kansas.

BAR MILL SCALE.

Old Price Affirmed by tho AmaISamnted
Association.
PITTsBvRGH, June l0.-This mornings
session OF the Amalgamated Association
convention was devoted to a considera-
ton Of the scale governing bar mills, and
the same subject will claim attention
during the balance oil the day. The base,
10 cents per ton on 2.cent card, was re-
aflimed, but the qualifying clauses on
extras have not ali been decided.
In naming the price for pudding in
Eastern mills the convention has ad.
vanced the figures from $3.50 to 81 per
ton. This means that the Eastern work
ers will demand an increase Of pay nll
round approrimatiBg Is per cent. This
move may be looked upon as throwing
down Of the gauntlet. and there is every
indication that the manufacturers will
not, however, hesitate to express their
readiness to take it up.
In this question Of increased pay the
position oflhe Amalgamated Association
il that the raw materials do not cost 3S
per cent more than is paid by Western
men, yet the East has enjoyed the ad.
vantage OF So per cent in its favor for
labor. The manufacturers OF Pittsburgh
and other Western points, it is said to-
day commend this decision. There are
about 1876 miles in the East.
1t remains to be seen how this advance
will be accepted. 1t is believed that the
advanced prices asked will be paid ulti-
mately, il not Immediately.
