The independent newspaper.

the
Sioux Falls Argus-Leader:-In common
with other clear-sighted observers the
Dell Rapids Times discerns the rapid
growth i'll prestige and influence of the
independent newspapers. In its last issue
it seeks to argue against the rising tide
and says:
The independent party paper enjoys as
much freedom OF thought and expression
as the s0-called purely independent paper.
1t gives allegiance to the principles it
believes to be the purest, highest and
best for the welfare of the country, and
therefore allies itself with the party
which possesses these principles.
But what party is that? Surely no
party now prominent in politics exclu-
sively possesses principles the purest,
highest and best for the welfare of the
country. Platforms are always built up
of planks framed to catch the largest
number of votes. Great principles are
usually advocated not because they pro-
mote the good of the state or nation, but
because certain bodies OF citizens can be
held to party allegiance only through
them. Men are nominated, not because
they are statesmen OF patriots, but be-
cause they can best pull wires and take
care of the boys.
Under these circumstances it seldom
occurs that an honest, clear-sighted man
can at any time unqualitiedly approve of
the platform and candidates of one polit-
ical party. Yet the party paper must
pretend to do this or it is assailed with
cries of turncoat, traitor, or most BLOOD
curdling of all, mugwump, 1t can Of
course within limits criticise its own
party, but its latitude in this direction
is small and it must employ different
standards for friends and enemies Its
reward is found in party praise and
party patronage. To rebel is to take the
bread from its mouth.
The Independent paper is like the indie
pendent man. 1t judges men and measures
by%standards Of integrity and benefit to the
people, not by party names. 1t advocates
good laws and supports honest and able
candidates under whatever banner they
stand. There is no party patronage to
seduce it, or party whips to threaten it.
A party paper may aim to be independ-
ent in its criticism, but its path is an ex-
tremely difficulty one. Almost irresist-
ible pressure can be brought to bring it
into line. And so far as our observation
goes the pressure succeeds. To the party
paper there is NJ middle ground between
strictparty allegiance and mugwumpery.

An Extraordinary Beacon.

The most extraordinary. of all light
houses is to be found on Arnish Rock,
Stornoway bay-a rock which is sepa-
rated from the Island of Lewis by a
channel over 500 feet wide. 1t is in
the Hebrides. Scotland. On this rock
a conical beacon is erected, and on its
summit lantern is fixed, from which,
night after night shines light which
is seen by the fishermen far and wide.
Yet there is no burning lamp in the
lantern and no attendant ever goes to
it, for the simple reason that there is
no lamp to attend to, no wick to trim,
and no oil well to replenish.
The way in which this peculiar light
house is illuminated is this: On the
island of Lewis. 500 feet or so away, is
lighthouse. and from window in the
tower steam of light is projected on a
mirror in the lantern on the summit of
Arnish Rock. These rays are reflected
on to an arrangement of prisms, and
by their action are converged to a
focus outside the lantern, from where
they diverge in the necessary direc-
ton.
The consequence is that to all in
tents and purposes lighthouse exists
which has neither lamp nor lighthouse
keeper, and yet which gives as service
able light-taking into account the
requirements of this locality-as if an
elaborate and costly lighthouse, with
lamp, service-room, bedroom, living
room, store-room, oil-room and water
tanks. were erected on the summit of
the rock.

Times Had Changed.

crowd of colored people at the depot
as the train pulled in. An old bald

of the coach set apart for colored pas

recognized him and called out:

but made no responce.
Hello! Misser StIverSm No re-
sponse.
Say, Misser Stivers, has yo' losted

drew nearer.
"Boy, was yo' tallin' to me?"
sternly demanded the old man.
''Sartin. What's the matter?"
boy, was you want anything of
me?'
"Why, how yo' talk! Reckon yo'

Making Over Lace Dresses.

In making over lace gown, which
has been unfortunate enough to be
torn here or there, just remember that
the place can be darned and never
show if it is done over piece of Brus-
sells net. This. of course, supports the
weak places in the lace and necessi-
tates so few stitches that they look al
most like part of the pattern. The
costume just described is in perfect
good taste for ordinary wear; but the
woman who wants to make one gown
answer for many purposes is she who
is wise enough to have two or possibly
three bodices to wear with her black
lace costume. One may be of velvet
and one of either moire, or black gros-
grain, as is most becoming. So little
decoration is put on lace skirts that the
bodices are elaborately trimmed. The
rows of ribbon about the skirts, which
were SO much liked last season, do not
obtain at all this year. The one deco
ration which seems to be favored by the
French modiste is sash in the back, a
sash that is of very broad ribbon and
has both long loops and ends.-Ladies'

Mysterious Disappearance.

The two lines were facing one an
other, with only a short distance sep
arating them. A farmer rode into the
Confederate camp on mule. Most
of the soldiers had been farmers and
were good judges of horsefesh, so that
in conversation with the old farmer
the merits and demerits of the mule
came up naturally for some discussion.
1t was a good mule, they agreed with
the farmer-''but" added the owner,
I've never seen another man that
could ride him.
This remark brought on another dis
cussion. Several of the soldiers pro-
tested that they had never been thrown
from mule, and were willing to bet
that they could ride this one. One of
the most vociferous in praising his own
horsemanship was commissary. He
swore he could ride the mule, and
finally it was decided to let him try.
He had no sooner mounted than the
mule began plunging viciously. and
then he ran around in circle several
times at breakneck speed, the COM
misSary holding on for his life.
Suddenly that mule made break
for the front. The commissary sawed
and shouted in vain. Every attempt
was made to stop them, but the mule
was wild and the commissary knew
that if once let loose he would have to
be buried.
On like a tornado-and as straight
as the crow fiies-on past the Confed-
crate outposts and heading for the
Yankee lines. They watched him I'M
til the mule was lost to sight.
That was the last seen of them, nor
has one word ever been heard, from
that day to this, of the commissary or
the mule-Atla22tG Constitution.

Tea Culture in Natal.

Natal, South Africa, is now look
ed upon as the great tea producing
country of the future. None of the
tea has yet appeared in this country.
The first plants were brought from
Ceylon in 1877. j. L. Hulett. the
pioneer, now has nearly three hundred
acres under cultivation, and his crop
is from eighty thousand to ninety
thousand pounds annually. His plant
cost but $1,000. The land lies about
one thousand feet above sea level. the
soil containing fair proportion of
sand and decomposed granite, veg
etable and other organic matter. The
tea farm is open, level and is well
ploughe6. The rows are laid out five
feet apart, and the plants are set four
or five inches apart. A crop is OBJ
tanned after the first year, and increas-
es up to the sixth year, when the plant
natures, after which it bears for an IN
definite period. Great care has
to be taken to keep the ground loose
and clear of grass and weeds. The
picking begins in September and con-
tinues every ten days until June
twenty to twenty-five pickings in all.
Nothing could be done with the native
nelp, DuG cOOlleS are plentlIll, anu are
exclusively employed. They are able to
pick from thirty-fve to forty pounds
of green leaves daily. The crop is sold
in Dunbar at from eighteen to thirty
eight cents per pound, fully twenty-five
per cent cheaper than the foreign pro-
duct can be laid down in that market.
The whitening is done on large floors,
the leaves being laid thin and constan-
tly stirred by boys and girls. A hot
and dry temperature is needed. The
rolling is done by machinery, and has
the effect of breaking up the juice.
The fermenting process is the most
particular of all, and upon it depends
the quality of the product. The drying
is done by hot revolving cylinders.
The sorting is accomplished by the
use of sleeves, the top one containing
the lowest grade of tea.
