HINTS FOR SHEEP-RAlSERS.
Western Rural.l

NATURALLY, as wealth increases, the
demand for finer grades of wool will
increase. There is no profit in growing
poor wool, anyhow.
Be careful not to feed too many roots
to the breeding eve. Roots are largely
composed Of water and too much cold
water all understand is injurious to the
eve.
IT is of the utmost Importance that
the breed of sheep selected shall be fit
ted to the conditions under which they
are to be kept else the wool will neces-
sarily be affected.
Wool must be equally strong the en-
tire length of the fiber, or necessarily
it will be of less value to the manufact-
urer; and wool of that kind can not be
grown unless the sheep is kept in good
condition all the time.
SHEEP breeding and wool growing
must excite the enthusiasm of the flock
master, if the business achieves the
highest success. The man who is care
less with his sheep-pays little atten'
ton to them-win never get rich at the
business.
Cosr1vENEss in sheep is very apt tc
occur in winter when no roots or en-
silage are fed. In such case the value
of oil meal can scarcely be overesti
mated. If the flockmaster has no greer
food we believe it will pay him to buy
some oil meal at any cost that any body
will likely have to pay.

Dr. Garrison,s case.

The verdict of the jury in the
Wheeling homicide of murder in
the second degree, was severer
than most people expected, than
most people predicted, than most
people think the evidence justified.
Voluntary manslaughter was about
the popular verdict. The maxi
mum punishment for voluntary
manslaughter is the minimum pun
ishment for murder in the sec
ond degree, being five years in the
penitentiary. We forbear to COM
ment upon the deplorable affair, as
the Court has not yet rendered
judgment upon the verdict.
Suffice it to say that opinions
have not been changed by the ver-
dict and there are yet those who
condemn the act of DIR. Garrison.
For ourselves, we can only say that
we are sorry, very sorry, and in
deed what more can anybody say2

A Tariff Storm Rising.

Pittsburg Post.
And where, pray, are the increas-
ed wages for American workingmen
promised as a certainty to follow
the passage of the Mckinley Bill2
Has not the trend of wages been
downward? The strikes and lock-
outs from one end of the Union to
the other, almost exclusively in the
protected industries, answer the
question. The Mckinley Bill was
framed to care for the fat-fried con-
tributors to campaign funds and the
fat-fried are taking precious good
care of themselves with the aid of
imported cheap labor, ruthless
evictions, deputy sheriffs, soldiers
all warning against organized labor.
The better the Mckinley Bill is un-
derstood in its purpose and work
ing the more intense the anger
against it. The cyclone of 1890 will
be as summer gale to the storm
that is rising.

The young men who are giving
fresh vitality to the Democratic
party in all the States speak the
language of sincerity. They are
not old enough to get tariff ideas
from Pennsylvania mill owners and
ideas on appropriations from log
rolling special interests. There is
to them no eloquence in vindicating
prohibitive tariffs for the benefit of
a few rich manufacturers and Billion
Congress for the benefit of the min
critics who "stand in" The young
men have not had time to distort
their sense of justice or to spoil their
lessons upon the functions of gov
eminent. They cannot yet agree
that politics must be conducted with
falsehood, bribery and subsidized
newspapers.

An Impudent Suggestion.

There is something peculiarly
characteristic in the Union League
Clubs suggestion that citizenship
should be granted. by the Federal
courts alone, instead of as now by
all courts of record, both Federal
and State.
Federal citizenship is very gen.
eral right. 1t is upon State citizen
ship that most of the public rights
of the individual are dependent.
He is under the immediate protec-
ton of the State, his property is
transferred during his life and
descends after his death according
to State laws. He is a voter also in
accordance with the provision of
State laws for the electors of Rep
resentatives in Congress, under the
Federal Constitution, "shall have
the qualifications requisite for cleo
tors of the most numerous branch
of State Legislature" The only
electoral privilege which United
States citizens enjoy is negative.
They cannot be denied the suffrage
son account of race, color or "pre-
vious condition of servitude."
Even when a Federal court con-
fers citizenship upon an alien he
becomes primarily citizen of the
State in which he resides, and his
principal duties are those pertain
ing to local government. No one
has expressed a desire to deprive
the Federal courts of jurisdiction OF
the subject of naturalization, but
why should anyone desire to take
away from the State court the right
to clothe with citizenship those who
will consequently take part in the
town, municipal, county and State
governments and will be necessarily
domiciled within State?
The reason for the resolution is
manifest. The Federal courts are
now in possession of the Republican
party, and therefore the scheme i.
entirely partisan. The partisan
purpose is but thinly concealed
1t is on an even footing with the
underlying intention of the Force
Bill, which proposed in Mr.. Reeds
words, that the Republican leaders
should do their own "registration
counting and certification. 1t ii

Shut the Doors.

Nearly a half million foreigners
have immigrated to this country
since the first of January. OF this
number near one fifth were Poles,
Italians, Hungarians and other ele-
ments representing the pauper labor
and debased elements of foreign
lands. The moment they land on
our shores they enter into active
competition with our home people
for work. Accustomed to meagre
living at best in their own country,
and subsisting upon compensation
that would bring starvation to our
workmen, they bring with them
their habits and customs, and inn
mediately offered their services in
the already over crowded labor
market of this country. There is
no tariff on them, no laws that keep
them out. The rich manufacturer
is beneficently protected by laws
which say that foreign made articles
shall not come into this country and
enter into active competition with
our home made goods. The Billion
dollar congress said that the home
manufacturer must be protected
from the foreign manufacturer But
not so as to the workingmen and
the laborers. The bars are down
and paupers and criminals from
every nation on the globe except
China are welcome to come here
and crowd our home working people
out of their jobs. And they are do
ing it. Whenever our home people
in order to better their condition
demand an Improvement in their
working condition the employers, if
not willing to grant the request, at
once supply their places with Itali-
ans or Hungarians, or some other
non-English speaking foreigners.
The country is full of them. They
do not speak our language, they
care nothing for our laws, they are
defiant and dangerous. do not and
cannot assimilate with our people or
our customs and are using this coun-
try as refuge and a protection
from the poverty and violated laws
of their own.
This does not apply to all who
come across the water, but it does
apply TO the Slavs, Huns, Poles and
Italians. And the workingmen of
this country need protection from
Sentinel.

whole electoral machinery of the
country in the hands of Republican
politicians. How they would ma
nipulate the machinery has been
often shown. They illustrated the
significance of their plot by turning
elected Democrats out of the last
House of Representatives, and by
creating rotten boroughs that elect
ed twelve Senators and seven Rep
resentatives.
1t is proposed by the Union
League Club that naturalized citi-
zens shall be created by men like
John l. Davenport, Judge Swayne,
of Florida, whose Marshal packed
juries for partisan purposes, and
Judge Woods, of Indiana, who re-
versed his decision that Blocks-of-
Five Dudley might escape the pun
ishment he deserved, and that the
State courts shall have nothing to
say in matter which chiefly con-
Germs the people for whom they adj
minister the law.
The proposition is characteristic,
because it is impudent, unpatriotic
and hostile to the system of gov
eminent which was established by
the fathers, and to which the loyalty
of every good citizen is due.-N. Y.

No man half so conspicuous in
public life ever dropped out of it
with SO little regret even among his
own partisans as John James Ingalls,.
He was eighteen years in the Senate;
he was always prominent, the most
popular speaker in the Senate, for
several years its, presiding officer;
he was applauded by his party
whenever he made an attack on
a Democrat; but he never had the
respect or even admiration of his
colleagues or of his party outside.
If any Republican Senator has ex-
pressed his regret at Mr.. Ingalls,
defeat it must have been done un-
der more potent injunction of
secrecy than that of the executive
session even. One Republican paper
has lately said of him, what is ac-
curately true, that he is more plen-
tifully endowed with lack of prin-
!ciple than any one other man in
public life. Many other Republican
papers have expressed sentiments
equally uncomplimentary to his
sincerity and intellectual honesty.
Republicans have even been discov-
ering that his great speeches consist
ed of nothing but words, and that
his only claim to distinction was his
mouth. The Hartford Courant
Senator Hawley's paper, says: "One
of the gravest symptoms in the case
of Mr.. ]. ]. Ingalls,, OF Kansas, is
that he has begun talking about
penny line reporters and 'snarl
ing and carping editors Instances
have been known of political re-
covery after the appearance of this
symptom, but they are rare"
