OHlO'S CAMPAIGN.
Mckinley Is Almost Certain TO be De
feated at His Home.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 3-Ohio voters will
be called on To elect secretary Of state,
Judge Of Supreme court. member of the
board OF public works, besides congress
men.
The election of the members of con-
gress is the first under the re-apportion-
ment made by the legislature. by the vote OF
two years ago, six of these would elect ro-
publicans, viz: the second, tenth, twelfth,
eighteenth. nineteenth and twenty-frst.
The others should elect democrats.
The campaign has had very little Of
state issues in IL. The election of con-
pressmen has made national issues the
important factor In all speeches.
Perhaps the most interesting fea-
ture Of the campaign in Ohio is
the candidacy OF William McKin.
ley in the Sixteenth district. Last year
the counties in his district gave the demo
Gratis a majority of 1900. Yet there has
been most earnest effort by the republi-
cans to elect Mckinley, partly on account
Of his value to the party in congress and
partly as vindication OF his policy on
the tariff law.
An equally earnest effort has been made
to elect his opponent, Judge Warwick, To
show that the people do not approve Of
the Mckinley bill.
The news from the Sixteenth district
will be most anxiously awaited tomorrow
night.
Another interesting feature is the effort
of ex-governor Charles Foster, In the

DENVER, Nov. 3.-Thc state campaign
closed here tonight with n grand ropubli-

there being bitter factional fight in the
republican party over local affairs the
campaign has been a decidedly interest

there are two republican tickets In the

In the third the fight is very close, but in

In the congressional fight the republl-

Orange Prospect.

Ten years ago not few of our people
predicted that the orange trade would
be overdone, if not sink into insignif-
canoe. The reason set forth was that the
planting and growing would down prices
to such an extent that it would hardly
be worth while to go into the business.
Nearly forty years ago the fine orange
grove owned by DR.. Speer, at Lake Mon
roe, numbering over 500 full bearing
trees, brought the low price Of 80, 900 for
the entire crop. Now, the same grove
with a full crop, would sell for not less
than $4,000 Or $4,000. At that time
there was no market for them.
Ten years experience demonstrates the
fact that the business is not over grown,
and the increase is less than the demand.
Florida soil is wonderfully adapted to
the growth of the orange, and it is much
superior to that OF Cuba, where frost is
unknown and where one would think that
the orange would grow to perfection.
But it is demonstrated fact that the
frost line the more perfect the fruit
Croakers that heretofore predicted fail
ure, now look upon our orange crop as
being not only safe business but one
that has the big dollar in it. There will
hardly ever come time when the orange
crop OF Florida will prove failure. 1t
may be that prices may be lower, but
with the evidence before us the increase of
groves bring uniform prices. Like all
other business, success depends on the
grower.
The largest and best groves in Florida
are well managed, and the fruit seldom
or ever becomes q drug in any market
Take Putnam County for instance, which
now and then you will hear illdisposed
persons speak unfavorably of her pros
poets. Still, with all her seeming disad-
vantages growing out of her want of i'm
migration, the county nevertheless keeps
on growing and becoming richer every
year.

Hopeful for the Florida Sugar In
dustry.

dustry.
Under the new tariff bill the United
States will pay bounty of 2 cents for
every pound of sugar produced in the
United States from beets, sorghum and
sugar cane and maple, between July /,
1891, and July 1, 1895. The effect Of
this must be to stimulate this industry
very considerably, as the bounty alone
will constitute handsome profit to the
producer, should he be only able to pro-
duce at the ruling selling price.
In Louisiana the sugar plantations are
very extensive and the majority of the
planters find the raising of cane much
more profitable than cotton Or other
agricultural products. In that State the
increase in sugar plantations mustneces-
sarily be considerable, as the bounty is
guaranteed for four years, barring the
possible contingency of q repeal of this
section Of the act.
Florida has heretofore been an unim-
pOrtant factor in sugar markets but the
Indications are that she will come rapid
ly to the front. Some of the finest cane
producing lands in the United States are
found in central and South Florida. At
St. Cloud, which is near Kiss.mmee, q
syndicate, comprising many wealthy
men, including Hamilton Disston, the
millionaire saw manufacturer of Phila-
delphia, has purchased large bodies of
land to be set out in cane. This land
was reclaimed by draining, and in some
places the rich loan, the result of decay
ing vegetable matter OF centuries, is sey-
eral feet in thickness. Not only are lar
crops may be produced during the long
season, and that, too, without impover-
ishing the land. 1t is stated authorita-
lively that sugar can be produced at
much lower figure in Florida than in
Louisiana, which in turn produces much
cheaper than Cuba.
Should this plantation continue to be
the success that it has already proven it.
self to be, vast areas of reclaimed will be
set out in cane, and while the product
will hardly prove of Importance in fixing
prices for this staple, it will swell the to-
tai of home produced sugar and cause a
consequent depletion in the treasury, in
paying the 2 cents bounty, with which
Congress seeks to foster the industry.
The company in question owns several
hundred thousand acres of reclaimed
land, which can only be used for raising
cane or rice or same similar product, and
it stands ready to eXpend any amount of
money in increasing their already extern
sive plant, should there be any direct
hopes of a good return on the invest
ment.-Interstate Grocer.

except of water. The following is given
as q summary of the series of expert
ments, and no farmer can afford to ig-
more the lessons:
SUMMARY.
The results of one seasons trial seem
to show that horse manure thrown in a
loose pile and subjected to the action of
the elements will lose nearly one half of

course of six months; that mixed horse
and COW manure in a compact mass and
SO placed that all water falling upon it
quickly runs through and off is subjected
to a considerable, though not so great q
loss, and that no appreciable loss takes
place when manure simply dries.

rOttened and are ready for the tender lit
tie roOtlets of the plants, which are wait

AS planting begins, a man goes ahead
and opens up smooth places every two or
three feet along the furrow where plants
are to set; then come two men with a hand
barrow loaded with plants from out of
the cold frame and place them in places
prepared to receive them. The sod con-
tanning plant can best be removed from
barrow with a mason's trowel with point
cut off. Another hand follows with hoe
and draws dirt around plants, frming
soil q little but not enough to break the
sod.

by, stake and tie up. We never tie up
but once. After the vine is loaded with
fruit we gather up all the vines in hill
and pull them up pretty tightly and an
other hand takes double wrap with d
piece of Irvine about sixteen inches long
and ties them as tight as he can pull the
Irvine. This tie should be made just as
high up the stake as the vines will admit
of. We keep an eye to the worms and
catch all we can find, and pinch off all
tomatoes bored by them and all cracked
ones and carry them out of the patch.
Wenever sucker'any, but sometimes when
the vines are rank we defoliate the lower
half of HILL especially on the north side.
This gives the grown tomatoes air and
light and they soon ripen. We pick when

Britons, the Gauls and the Celts, and so,
in spite of the civilizing advantages they
have enjoyed, are many of their descend
ants of the present day.
None of these, nor any other race in Its
savage and untutored state, has produced
an equal proportion of masterful leaders,
gifted in diplomacy and instructive state
craft, no less than in military strategy
and prowess, than has been displayed
among the American Indians since our
people came in contact with them. Dis
carding tinselled exaggerations, dealing
only with the cold facts of their careers,
Powhattan, King Philip, Pontiac, Te-
cnrnseh and Black Hawk were
men whose achievements would entitle
their names to enrolment among distin-
guished rulers of civilized peoples. Not
only as warriors, but in the field of diplo-
macy these illiterate sons of nature were
often more than match and frequently
bafiled the ablest whites with whom they
came into contact. In view oftheir oppor-
tunities the capacity of some of these men
appears almost miraculous.
The list of such might be greatly ex-
tended. The race has been remarkably
prolific of capable leaders; brave, shrewd,
adroit, stoicai and devoted. Even Geron-
limo and Sitting Bull, though vicious,
treacherous and cruel, had capabilities
such as have seldom been found among
men in a condition of savagery. How
these people might have been civilized
may be a difficult question, but equally
truculent and vicious savages of less
capacity have been advanced to high
plane, and these were worthy of it. But

A Railroad Commission.
Seattle Times.


Mr.. D. II. Gilman tells the Posi- INrELLI-
GENcER that railroad commission should be
composed OF ~ a civil engineer; (2) an expert
enced railway accountant, and (S) good rail-
road lawyer. Such a body, he thinks might 'do
good service both to the railroad and to the peo-
pie" He doesn't intimate whether the s'rail-
road lawyer" shall be in the employ of one or all
the railroads TO be supervised, or from which
Office he shall have graduated. With a railroad
engineer, a railroad accountant and
a railroad lawyer as arbiters be-
tween the railroads and the public,
the change from the present system would not
be so abrupt as to cause any perceptible shock
This is evidently what Mr. Gilman desires to
avoid. But where the peoples side of the srail-
way problem would find representation in such
combine doesn't clearly appear. How would
1t do to put farmer or shipper on the board,
just for forms sake, you know. Possibly such
an one might venture to suggest-only suggest
that the relations between common carriers and
their patrons were, or ought to be, reciproeally
equitable. But wouldn't that be fine commits

traordinary purchases of silver, were in
their nature temporary. But harum
scarum, on brief consideration, as though
it were but an incident in game of foot
ball, this central idea of deliberately pre-
pared and most important measure, "was
quickly knocked out"
Rejecting that this measure was not
simply agreed upon by this specially
qualified subcommittee, but was unani-
mously and heartily endorsed by the Sen
ate Finance Committee and approved by
the Secretary of the Treasury, such flip
pant treatment of it, in view of the ex-
treme gravity of the situation, is certainly
disheartening. 1t is to be hoped that this

ence of the views of Mr.. A. j. Warner, OF
Ohio, Mr.. Edward Curtis, of California,
and certain others who are reported as in
session at the capital to further certain
lobby influences.

1t is reported that the newly elected
legislature of South Dakota proposes to
cut right and left in reducing their state
expenses to a sound business basis. They
will abolish the Railroad Commission, the
Emigration Commission and the State
Veterinary Surgeon, and viii even go to
the length of reducing their own number
from 164 TO 100. 1t is an open question
whether 25 would not do better legislation
and the same amount in less time than 100,
and whether quadrennial sessions would
not be an improvement on the annual or
biennial system, after matters had once
become adjusted to the change. A great
deal of time and money are expended in
lawmaking in this country, when congress,
state legislatures, boards of supervisors,
city councils and selectmen are taken into
account. Less lawmaking and more en-
forcement would be decided improve
ment.
