Speaking of ex-President Cleyeland's pro-
posed address in Ohio. Gov. Campbell says
the silver plank in the platform is not likely
to embarrass the speaker The ex-President
he thinks will simply ignore it and discuss
the tariff. Merely keeping silent does not,
however, dispose of the question nor of
Cleveland's attitude toward it. 1t is one of
the planks of the State platform, and is
pretty sure to be one of the planks of the
national platform. Sooner or later Cleve-
land has got to choose between accepting the
free silver doctrine Of his party or declining
to become its candidate, for 1t is not to be
presumed that he would accept the nomina-
ton unless be was prepared to do his part in
carrying out the principles enunciated in
the platform. 1t would certainly be highly
disnonorable performance for him to accept
nomination on free silver platform, and
then when bill for the free coinage of sill
yer was presented to him kill 1t with veto.
The ex-President is doubtless hoping that
something may yet turn up to change the
drift Of the Democracy toward free silver,
and meanwhile is inclined to keep dark on
the subject himself. But the signs indicate
that his hope will prove a vain one, and that
sooner or later he must choose between swal-
lowing free silver and declining "a Presiden-
tial nomination.

Balfour appears to be stealing the Glad
stonian thunder at an alarming rate. The
the land purchase bill that is meant to en- :
able the Irish tenantry to become owners of
the land which they cultivate. is now fol-
lowed by local government bill intended to
secure to Ireland considerable measure of
home rule. 1t is of course much less
sweeping measure than the Gladstonians
proposed, but the Irish leaders appear dis
posed to accept 1t. With the Irish party
split into factions and Balfour holding out
such olive branches as the land purchase and
local government schemes the prospect of
general election In which Irish affairs shall
be the chief issue grows beautifully less. The
bloody" Balfour has proved himself poll
tician of great astuteness.

Whether Georgia physicians aud prescrip-
tion clerks are more given to MEDITATION
than such people elsewhere we do not under
take to say, but such an inference may GER
tainly be drawn from an act recently
passed by the legislature of that State,
which provides that in case persons belong
ing to either of these two classes get drunk
they shall be punished by fine not less
than $500 or more than $500, aud shall also
be liable to damages to patient or customer
receiving harm by reason of such intoxica
tion. An amendment. however. suffers them
to get intoxicated while on vacation with
out mourning any severer penalties than are
visited on other people. 1t would not be
strange If the Georgia physicians and pre-
scription clerks should make strenuous OBJ
iections to the kind Of an advertisement this
statute is calculated to give them.

Tho Rebellion in East tennessee.

The state of disorder prevailing in the
mines of eastern Tennessee is noticeable for
several features. In the first place the
miners are so well organized and armed that
they have practically defed the power of
the state. They are, moreover, orderly and
self restrained although determined. 1t is
rather unusual for strikers to be SO success
full and also so self-contained and moderate.
Both these circumstances probably arise out
of the peculiar position of East Tennessee.
The mountaineers of East Tennessee have
always been a people apart from their
neighbors of the central and western parts
Of the state. Neither politically nor In
dustrially have they been in sympathy with
the rest of Tennessee. Before the war few
slaves were owned in the mountainous re-
gions' and to this day the negro population
Is very sparse. Industrially East Tennessee
Is more like the North, with which 1t has
Deen politically allied since the Democratic
politicians of middle and west Tennessee
hurled the state into rebellion that wac
distasteful to the majority of the neon,o
With the exception of the conyicts the min
ers are almost entirely mountaIneers. white

are Pursued.
The first question put by q stranger
on coming 10 west Lake county IA
why does All this land lie idlef" and
"Wouldn't n pay TO farm TT" Many
of our people promptly answer mo-,
TO the latter question. There h. new
ertheless. few hopeful ones who
firiiily believe from actual experiments
that it pays to farm 'plains" land.
These persons can explain away the
failure of many in a very self-evident
and satisfactory manner, and give
facts and figures of failure and success
showing which crops are most remu-
nerative aud what kinds of stock are
most profitable TO keep. The intelli-
gent farmer would first advise stran-
ger to become familiar with the soil
and temperature before deciding up
on what crops to try. He would tell
you tiat this sandy land heats rapidly
In daytime and cools as quickly at
night; from frost till frost is short
season and the summers are usually
dry. He would tell you to put little
dependence on a corn crop, and II
any 10 planted it should be of the most
hardy and early variety. He would
advise you to raise wheat, rye and
buckwheat, and to cultivate most
largely root crops such as potatoes,
bagas. carrots, etc., and to grow abun
dance of garden. vegetables, which
grow bountifully and find always {
ready market. Then much can b'
made out of seasons crop of straw
berries. which If properly cared fo
are right at home on the plains. TAX
ing one year after another, If land i
well cared for, kept up by use Of Ian;
plaster, manure, etc., the foregoing
crops will average a good yield AM
fair profit to the farmer, and persis
tency in effort and sound judgment ii
adaptation of crops will bring goo
reward. We know farmers that ar
making money and prospecting o.
''plains" land, hence the assuranc
with which we make our assertions.
AS to stock, more sheep, COWS an
poultry should be kept and fewe
horses, hogs, and beef cattle. Shee
are the most profitable, costing bu
little except in winter, and the e.
pense of feeding is small as compare
to the returns from wool and mutto
which always finds a ready marke
{ Too often forgotten is it that what
8 taken from the soil must in some wa
? be replaced and that It will not do
: farm year after year and expect goo
returns without supplying fertilizatio
