on the southern coast Of Devonshire, on Mon
day last. it has been ascertained. was the
steamship Miroma. of Liverpool. The crew
succeeded in launching two of the ship
boats. and made desperate efforts 70 reach the
shore. but to no avail. The boat which
contained the officers and number OF
men had proceeded but short dis
tance when tremendous sea swept
over her and she plunged beneath
the waves with all ON board The remainder
of the crew in the other boat made a fearful
struggle 10 make the land. Once she cap
sized and aftera number Of men had been
swept away was righted by the survivors, \
second time the boat went over with Ike
fatality and a similar result. Finally; after
almost incredible suffering and wonderful en-
durance. four Swedish sailors succeeded in
reaching the beach where one Of their num-
ber died from exhaustion.

WORK IN THE GARDEN.


What Should he Done In Spring to In
sure Good Results.
Spring is here and work plenty in the
garden. One advantage of the north is,
that for the winter months but little
can be done out of doors, and when the
green buds begin to push out and the
grass to grow, people are itching to be
doing something to help matters along.
Pretty nearly everybody who has plot
of land will make some kind of an
effort to clean up in springtime. The
first thing to do is TO clean up all
leaves, rubbish, etc, and where this is
admissible, the better way is to bury it.
1t helps, on decaying, to furnish ma
terial for building up new plant growth.
Flower beds and places where anything
is to be planted require spading up, if
small spaces around the house, if large,
the plow will do it more expcditiously,
and it should not be forgotten that a
coating of manure is beneficial to work
in the soil.
Anything in the way of shrubs, trees
or hardy border plants that are now
being more thought of than formerly,
should be planted as soon as the ground
is in fit condition, as if left to the
last moment it is often too late, as de-
ciduous trees and shrubs do not trans
plant favorably when the leaves have
burst ont. Flower-bcds that stand for
q long time in the same place and
year after year are expected to grow
about the same kinds of plants will, if
not heavily manured, be found to fail
to furnish the display they did at
first. This is because some particular
part of the soil that is necessary to the
well being of the plant has been ex-
hausted. Some gardeners, where the
fower-beds are cut out of the grass or
lawn, make a new arrangement, re-sod
over the old spots, and cut new ones
from fresh soil Another way is to
add a portion of fresh new soil to the
bed, and cart away a corresponding
portion of the old. 1t is all on the prin-
ciple of rotation of crops, that the
farmer finds beneficial in keeping his
farm in what is called good heart

A PERTINENT QUESTION.

What Has Caused the Vast Accumulatioa
Of Indebtedness I'm the Last Twenty

Superintendent Porter in his Extra
Census Bulletin" of April q, 1891, makes
this statement:
Inquiries were m1de in lo3 counties for the
purpose Of learning how much remains un-
paid upon every uncsrcel!ed mortgage re-
corded as far back in time a. any appreci-
able amount of debt Il found to exist-gen.

Will some of our good friends who
have been telling us about the great
prosperity of our county in these latter
days and its rapid increase in wealth,
please tell us why there was no debt Of
ian appreciab!e amount" twenty years
ago, and what are the causes that have
led to the vast incumbrance upon the
homes of the people ut the present
time? Who will answer the question?
This statement of the superintendent Of
the census is full of significance and
we present it as a topic worthy Of =
more candid study and discussion than
it is likely to receive at time when

guarded with reference to the political

THE sUB-TREAsUAY PLAN.

II May he HOoted Mt BY the Party Boss
But It Is What the Farmers Need.
The sub-treasury scheme of the
Farmers Alliance is hooted at by the
party boss as being impracticablc, and
is said by them to be class Legislation
in its worst form. Last year we had
millions of bushels of corn that passed
into the hands OF spectators at 12
cents per bushel. while this year many
of the same farmers who disposed Of
their crop at an actual loss have to buy
corn for their stock at from so to 60
cents per bushel. Every man who has
horse or COW has to pay this in
creased price for corn whether the corn
is held by the local speculator or for
eign. If the corn that was raised in
Cowley county in 1889 could have been
held at home, we would have suffi-
cient with the crop Of 1890 to have
made the price at present not more
than so cents, which would have given
the farmer fair profit for his labor
and investment, and this vast difference
between the II and 80 cents would have
been distributed between all the people
instead of in the hands of few. II an
average price of % cents had prevailed
for corn for the past two years there
would have been twice as much money
in circulation as there has been, and all
classes of people, merchants, mechan-
les, laborers and farmers. would have
been in better condition, financially,
because of this increased supply of
money. This is purely an agricultural
country and what is to the interest of
one class is of interest to the other, and
that man is a demagogue who endcav-
ors to keep the people divided Let the
people of city and country unite in an
effort for better government regardless

We Must Have More and Cheaper Money
Before We Can Have Free Trade.
When Mr. Cleveland, in his recent let
ter to an Indiana tariff reform club,
made the statement that the scarcity
of the circulating medium" is the result
of tariff taxation, he gave another evil
dence of his ignorance of both the his
tory of his country and of those polite
al and economic questions now before
the people. Had he been properly in
formed rs to the effect of the tariff of
1876, which, by turning the balance
of trade against us, drained the
country OF its money in order

by precipitated the disastrous panic of

In four years our imports rose from
So. 900, 900 to Sos, 600, 900. Money was
taken from the country in order to meet
