STOCK NOTES,

Mr.. j. A. Wright has gotten together
pair of handsome horses, one a pure
white and the other bright sorrel. He
is having them driven and fitted for a
hoped-for purchaser.
The interest IN coarse-wool sheep is
increasing. Mr.. G.. c. Chapman has
raised up quite a flock, most of them
pure blooded Cotswolds, but part a
cross of the Cotswold and Shropshire.
He sheared several yearlings of both sorts
this week that were fine ANIMALS, both as
to carcass and fleece. He has bred with
special reference to fleece, and one of
those shOrn had wool that measured II
inches in length, and it was fife and
thickly set on the skin, too.
Mr.. w. II. Rowe of this town has four
cows, part Jersey, of which he thinks he
has reason to be proud. From April
last till Jan. of this year their milk
yielded 1000 pounds of butter, besides
fatting a calf, affording two quarts day
for two months for lambs and providing
the milk and cream required by family
of four persons. They had nothing but
grass to eat till after they were taken up
out of the pasture IN the fall.

THE PEOPL ELS PARTY,

To people familiar with the history of
the third and fourth political parties there
has been nothing especially interesting
about the Peoples Party. Like all
others it began with whoop calculated
to let the heavens above and the earth
beneath and the waters under the earth,
know that it was on deck to reform
everything in sight. 1t would have it 90
that everything that is and was, is and
was wrong, and would never be right
until the great is to be, when by accident
REORGANIZATION the Peoples Party should
get into power.
AS the party began with whoop it
has declined with slide. II proof were
wanting, one has only to look at the
gathering at Omaha. Like the first con-
vention year ago, it represented every
thing in general and nothing in particular.
The convention this year differed from
the other in that there were about as
many "generalities," and "whereases"
present, but not such confidence that
any thing would ever be accomplished.
In year the party has seen Republicans
going back to their former affiliations
with the G. o. P. and Democrats return
ing to their first love-the Democracy.
Only the widest stayed and met to-
gether at Omaha to prepare platform
and nominate ticket.
The result is what might have been
predicted of such an organization. Its
platform is an outright declaration for a
debased coinage. Itfavors socialism not
far removed from anarchy in its state
ment that ''If any man will not work,
neither shall he eat" 1t also favors gov
eminent control of railroads, but does
not state whether they shall be acquired
by purchase or confiscation. 1t also
favors graded income tax. The list of
its numerous follies might be indeinitely
extended, but enough is said when it is
stated that on this platform the party
placed Calamity Weaver, Greenbacker,
and Field, an ex-rebel. No greater in
dication of the true insignifcance of the
party could be given than this.-Troy
telegram.
