Whatever its motive the espousal by the
German Emperor of the most radical doc.
trines OF the German Socialists is one Of the
most astonishing manifestations that have
come from any monarch for many day.
The policy Of the German empire towards
tie Socialists has been for many years past
one of stern repression. Indeed it is but very
short time since Bismarck was advocating,
and employing all his power to bring about,
laws that would expel the prominent advo
Gates of the doctrines OF Karl Marx from
Germany. Now, however, all is changed.
The Emperor uneqlivcca1fy afR6Hnces
himself convert to tine doctrines of
the most advanced Socialism and
practically pledges himself, not mere.
ly to recognize them, but to put them
in practice in his realm. The Emperor's
course may have been dictated by purely po-
litical considerations, he may have come to
espouse Socialism simply because he saw that
Socialism was gathering tremendous
force which made it dangerous to resist it
but whatever its motive the fact remains
that he has committed himself to 1t, and that
too in way that admits of no retreat.
Henceforth he is committed to the doctrine
that the State should take care of the work
ing man, that it should regulate his hours of
employment and fix his remuneration. 1t is
momentous change that the Emperor pro-
poses and the whole civilized world will
watch its results with the deepest interest

Mr.. Reeds Air,

Mr.. Reeds conspicuous victory over the
forces of obstruction in the National House
has made him the most prominent political
figure before the country at this time, and
there are not wanting many prominent men
and journals to prophesy that he will be the
most available Republican candidate for the
Presidency in 1892. This talk is interesting
and will do no harm to anyone, least of all
to so level.headed man as the Speaker 1t
is true that what he has done in the last
week has been in accordance with steady
and long cherished purpose; but that pur-
pose has nothing to do with any designs on
the Presidency. From the first Mr.. Reeds
aim has been to make his administration of
the Speakers Office result in the accomplish.
ment Of the legislation in which the country
stands so greatly in need. Not since the
passage Of the tariff bill of 1883 by the Re-
publican Congress Of that year has there
been any legislation upon the great and
burning issue Of the tariff. Both parties
have Incorporated in their platforms prom
Uses to revise the tariff and do away with the
troublesome surplus. For seven years the
Democrats in the House have been commits
stoned by the country to fulfill their promises.
Whatever they have tried to do has been
either impotent or too unwse to merit the
approval of the country. The Republicans
are now given the opportunity TO carry out
their policy, and Mr.. Reed is devoting him
self with courage and siDgleness of purpose
TO the fulillment of the promises of his
party. He is endeavoring TO have Congress
accomplish something's task of vast pro
portions when the force Of the obstructive
opposition is measured. he has reversed
paIalyzing precedent Of the past, although
the relic was cherished by all the vigor and
venom OF a party nearly equal to his own in
point OF numbers. He has cleared the way
for the successful transaction of business
for the rest of the session, and in so doing
has received the admiration and applause of
the great majority who delight to see oh
struction vanish before action. But he has
done it because it was his duty, and not be.
cause any Presidential bee is buzzing in his
bonnet. Indeed, the halls of the Capitol and
the high places of Washington are hardly
the places at this day to suggest Presidential
aspirations to a man so accustomed to re-
Election as is Mr.. Reed. The reminders of tine
past and the evidences of the present speak
more of the failures and disappoint-
ments than Of the triumphs of the famous men
who have sought the Presidency. Clay and
Webster are no more the victims Of this great
disappointment than several famous men
who are still active in the public service.

There seems to be no just reason for criti
cizing the action of the committee on fire de.
partment for contracting for hose at sixty
cents foot, although hose of another manu-
faeture was offered to them at a lower price.
The hose which they contracted for had been
used by the Portland department for many
years, and was known to be of the best quail
ty. The hose offered at lower price had not
been tested here, and the description of it
given by its agents convinced the committee
that it was inferior in several respects to the
American Hose Company's product. The
committee thought it wiser to buy hose
about the good quafity-of which there was
re aa99nhss,ieeEen Ha higher price had to b,
paid for it. That is sound enough, and W,
don't think any disinterested man will com
plain of the decision.

STORING POTATOES.

Potatoes should always be sorted when
digging. With the diggers that we now
use in harvesting a crop of potatoes this
is not so much of a task as when the hoe
or fork was depended upon. When it
can be avoided, potatoes should not be
dug when the soil is wet. Usually more
Or less dirt will cling to the tubers.
While in addition it will usually require
more time to dry them out thoroughly.
1t is not good economy to put away the
small potatoes, they are usually Of more
value for hog feed than anything else,
and they can be used now to better adj
vantage than at any time later.
At digging is the best time to select
the seed, and medium-sized tubers from
the hills producing the largest number of
these are best to save for this purpose,
and it will pay to select and store by
themselves sufficient quantity to use for
this purpose. Let the potatoes get
reasonably dry before putting away. Dig
out place about three or four feet wide
and as long as may be considered ncces-
sary to hold the quantity desired TO store.
Put good layer Of straw in the bottom
and the sides and then fill in the tubers,
piling them up as carefully as possible,
cover with clean straw, and over this pile
the dirt, commencing at the bottom and
carrying the layer evenly on all sides to
the proper height. In a majority Of
cases it will pay to apply a second layer
after the ground has frozen hard, or if
earth is not used, apply a good layer Of
old straw or fodder. Dig trench along
on the outside with good outlet, so as
to provide good drainage.
This will be the best and cheapest plan
Of keeping potatoes when they are to be
kept until spring. What IS needed to be
used during the winter should, Of course,
bestored in the cellar, where they can be
reached as necdcd.-Ne0 IorE Witness.

"wOLF TEETH" IN COLTS.

The so-called ''wolf teeth in colts
are merely superhuous teeth and harmless.
They are small teeth situated directly in
front of the upper and sometimes lower
grinders, and are shed as the new and
permanent teeth come in. While colts
are cutting their teeth there is often more
or less Inflammation which affects the
eyes, and those who do not know the
real cause are very likely to attribute it to
the presence of the small, super1uous
teeth, which will drop out if left alone,
or they may be pulled out without in
jury or great Inconvenience to the colt.
If they are broken off in attempting TO
extract them the stumps may c4use con
siderable irritation to the gums. Wild
horses seem to get along as well or even
better than the domesticated, and the
colts are never known to be injured by
'wolf teeth If the eyes of your colt
become sore, put him in rather dark
stable and wash his eyes two or three
times a day in warm water if the weather
is cool. or if hot use cold water or a little
mild eye water to be had at the drug
store.-NeO York Sun.

FOOD FOR TURKEYS.

The best thing for young turkeys and
young ducks also is the yolks of hard
boiled eggs. After the birds are several
days Old the white may be added An
occasional mixing in of finely chopped
onion is healthful. Rice is a food which
is too little appreciated for fowls.
Where milk is plentiful it should be
made into pudding with rice, boiling
until the rice is soft. 1t is better not to
use water with the milk, and not to boil
the rice SO as to { troy the grain, as it
will not be SO easily eaten. All food
should be fed in shallow pans. Boiled
milk and water with little lime water
added occasionally is recommended as an
excellent drink until the birds are three
months old. At this time loppered milk
or buttermilk may be given in place of
boiled milk.-NeD York Herald.

LEACHED ASHES.

1t is common TO consider leached ashes
of little or no value as fertilizers from
the fact that the potash has been alb
stracted, and therefore their use at the
best can only be for their mechanical
effect on stiff and hard soils, and thus
many persons neglect TO haul then out on
cultivated lands at all. While II is true
that nearly all the potash has been taken
OFT, the lime and the phosphoric acid
still remain, and as ashes contain more
lime than potash, it often occurs that
leached ashes will on certain soils produce
beneficial effects almost as marked as
those of unleeched ashes on another field.
This arises from the fact that the soil
on the field on which they were used al
ready contained sufficient potash, but
was deficient in lime and phosphoric
acid.-NeW York World.

FAITH AND DUTY.

God made me; I will not apologize
The workmanship is His: if firm and fair,
The credit of its strength do not snare,
If it be rudely reared, and men despise
It's quaint design and design TO criticise,
MAKE no nurmur. for l have no care
Iquesriou not the Builder, here nor there
Believing still that all His ways are wise.
This is the one sweet duty that l claim:
To keep he palace chambers cool and pure
And lily caaste within, while they endure
And all the many turret lights ahame;
To pour loves wine and bid the world take
part,
Around the purple affairs Of my heart.
