While negotiations were pending to
ascertain the facts regarding the murder
of the Malta Italians In New Orleans, and
before report could be made by our
National authorities the Italian Govern
ment suddenly recalls its minister-a
demonstration at once warlike and un-
heard off with friendly power. We are
of the opinion that Secretary Blaine will
see to it that this direct snub by third
rate European Monarchy is apologized
for. Whatever the provocatiOn this
method Of procedure is not the custom
is these days. and beside, there is no GER
tainty that the men killed are Italian
subjects, which makes this movement OF
Italy positively ridiculous. There will
be no war, howeve.

There are three points that should be
kept in mind during calfs first winter.
1t should have dry, clean and warm
quarters TO sleep in. 1t should not have
to drink large quantities of ice.cold

such food as will promote the growth OF

Langdon j. Cummings returned to his
home i'll Clinton, Ia, this week after a
three weeks visit in this town and vicin-
ity. MIR. Cummings is greatly impressed
with the smallness of Vermont horses as
compared with the larger and powerfully
built Western ones, and thinks it would
pay our farmers to use Clyde and Per-
cheron horses in place of oxen. Speak
ing of oxen Mr. Cummings said that
Clinton people would not believe him
when he told them Vermont had raised
pair of oxen weighing Sl30 pounds. To
prove his statement he showed them a
copy of the CdiedORidR which gave the
exact weight of the big oxen of Hastings
IL Moore. They still insisted that there
was some mistake, and finally Mr.. Cum
mings told his friends he had seen the
oxen himself and they were lust as rep
resented. Mr.. Cummings thinks that
Vermont does not need to take a back
when she can raise the biggest pair of
oxen i'll the world.-St. JohnSbury Gale

astonished to hear it, but she thought it

There arc about 300 tea tasters in
New York, a wcll-paid class of men,
most Of whom in the course Of nature
will die OF disease supcrinduccd by their
unwhOlesome occupation. The habits Of
these mon are exceedingly curious. Some
Of them refuse to ply their trade save in
the morning, on the ground that the
sense of taste canuot DC trusted after it
has been bewildered by hours Of work.
Most Of them avoid the use of tobacco
and of highly seasoned food. Their ac-
curacy Of taste is astonishing. A tea
faster will grade and price dozen quail
tiles Of tea, all from the the same cargo.

The WAY CONVENTION.

There is every reason to feel encour-
aged that the railroad convention called
to meet at Albuquerque, September 10,
will be productive Of great mutual good
to Colorado and New Mexico. it is
hoped that the press and people OF the
several towns and cities invited to send
delegates to this convention will begin
now to agitate the subject fully to the end
that the gathering shall be one in every
sense characteristic of the pluck, push
and enterprise of the Rocky mountain
country. UHtrammeled, progressive men
should be sent to this meeting; men who
have at heart the best interests OF the
people and who are thoroughly acqualnt-
ed with the wonderful resources OF the
country through which it is sought to
secure the extension of the Denver x
Rio Grande railway system. These dele
gates should be appointed early in order
that they may begin to gather statlstlcaI
: lllOIuldlIOu
able region OF country which will be
represented in this convention. great
deal, in fact, the very basis of success,
rests upon the care to be exercised in
getting together this information and
having the convention stamp it with its
seal OF approval that it may be laid before
the officials OF the D. & R. G.. company.
All business, present and prospective,
should be carefully figured out, and
reasonable estimates made respecting
the traffic of the new line, both passenger
and freight, as well as estimates OF the
cost of construction. In word, a BUSH
ness showing fit to be laid before busi'
ness men must be made. 1t can be, il
the proper effort is exerted, and this done
there will be no difficulty in securing
capital to take hold and carry out the
enterprise.

The new spanish paper established in
this city by the territorial Democratic
central committee to boom the Peoples
party in this county, is making bad be-
ginning. Its last issue contains three
column editorial denouncing the arch
bishop OF the Catholic church and the
priesthood generally, 1t charges the
clergy with all manner of crimes, and is
very incorporate in tone. In fact, the
article is the most violent that has yet
appeared in any territorial paper against
any church The mission OF the paper
appears to be nihilistic. 1t would tear
down existing things, and nothing is too
sacred to escape its venom. The name
of the late Archbishop Lamy is revered
in this territory, yet the apostle OF mid
night masked marauders attacks his
character, and lays to him the charge OF
bringing to the territory licentious
French priesthood, who, that paper
claims, is corrupting and robbing the peo'
ple.-Albuquerque Citizen.

During the epidemic of tlux in this
county last summer, I had hard work to
keep a supply of Chamberlain's Colo,
Cholera and DarrhGa Remedy on hand.
People often came ten or twelve miles IN
the night to get bottle of the remedy. l
have been selling patent medicines for the
last ten years and find that it has given
better satisfaction in cases of diarrhea
and fux, than any other medicine l ever
handled-J. H. Benham, druggist, Col
conda, Pope county, Ill. Over 500 bottles
of this remedy were sold in that county
during the epidemic referred to. 1t was
perfect success and was the only remedy
that did cure the worst cases. Dozens of
persons there will certify that it saved
their lives. In four othe. epidemics OF
bowel complaint this remedy has been
equally successful. Twenty-Five and 50
cent bottles for sale by G. M. Dreamer.
