tbs VERY BIGaEsr CROWD
That Washington Ever Saw-HOw Many
Grand Army Men There Were.

WASHINGTON, u. c., September IS
This was q breaS-away day in the OIL
clal programme for the entertainment Of
the G.. A. r. and its members have
been ''breaking away" as fast as long
lines Of railway ears could get them out
of town, ever ance the close Of the sec
Ond grand review on Tuesday last. As
3 result the population Of Washington
this morning had diminished 70 nearly
its normal size.
NOTWITHSTANDING the cloudy skies and
rain during the latter part Of Grand
Army week the encampment has been a
magnificent success.
The encampment brought TO the city
more people than have ever assembled
here. The crowd attending Cleveland
or Harrison's inauguration were not
nearly so large nor did the throng at
the triennial cOnclave Of the Knights
Templar compare with IL. The Balti-
more and Ohio railroad brought $50, 600
people to the city and there were brought
70 the Pennsylvania railroad station
155. OOO of whom perhaps $4,000 to 3d.
600 came by way OF the Chesapeake and
Ohio and Richmond and Danville rail-
road. A few thousand others came by
boat and wagons.
To-day the flag still waved over
Grand Army Place, the decorations re-
manned, the tents were all standing and
the cOlOrs were flying aboard the kear-
sarge as usual.

WHEAT BULLETIN
OF the West Virginia Agricultural Expert
ment station.

OF the West Virginia Agricultural Expert
ment Station.
We have received bulletin No. 25 of
the West Virginia Agricultural Expert
ment Station giving the results Of "Plat
Experiments with Commercial Fertil
izers on Wheat" The use of Commmer-
cial Fertilizers is a subject OF vital i'm
portance to the farmers of West Vir-
ginia. There can be no doubt that the
proper application OF commercial fertil-
izers very materially increases the yield
of crops, while it is equally true that
their improper use, not only fails to
produce the desired results, but imposes
upon the farmer a useless expense and
serious loss.
The object Of the experiment set
forth in detail in Bulletin %, is to de-
termlne the effects of the application of
nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash,
either singly or combined, upon the pro-
duction of wheat; and the results show
that the use of heterogeneous fertilizers
upon these plats, applied at the time
the wheat was sown, was of no practical
value. What effect it would have had
if it's application han been delayed I'M
I'll spring, when the wheat plants began
their spring growth, does not appear
from this experiment, as no test OF that
kind was made.
When il is remembered that nitrate
Of soda, containing 10 per cent. OF
nitrogen costs S45 per ton, and dried
blood containing IL per cent. Of nitrogn
cost S35 per ton, the use OF these fer
tiliZers becomes question OF vital i'm
portance. This experiment most as
suredly condemns the practice OF APP
plying the full quota OF heterogeneous
fertilizers in the fall Of the year, but
whether 8 sufficient amount TO supply
the necessary demands of the plant in
making its full growth should be given,
and the residue applied in the spring
when the plant resumes its growth, or
whether the results would be the same
upon other soils, are questions not de-
termined by this experiment. As to
the merits of this different kinds Of
potash, this experiment seems to give a
decided preference to Kainit.
These experiments also demonstrate
the very important tact that while the
application OF commercial fertilizers 10
one kind of soil may produce very graf
flying results, the application OF the
same fertilizer to another kind Of soil
will fail to produce any advantageous
effects whatever.
This bulletin can be obtained free, by
application to the West Virginia Agri-
cultural Experiment Station at Morgan
town, w. Va.

shiftlessness. When the political and
social conditions change, as they will
some day, there will be AN influx of
white people who will bring industry
and intelligence to apply, and the coun-
try will improve as it deserves to i'm
prove. In politics our observations may
be summed up briefly by rep ating what
an intelligent railroad man told us. He
said: The are only two parties in the
south; the Democrats and the negroes,
and the Democrats propose to rule.
That's all there is of it.
We have been little surprised at the
great numbers of idle colored people
that we have seen about the railroad
stations, and wonder how they live.
Another thing that causes US surprise
is the cold weather We were compelled
to wear overcoats at Savannah, Mobile
and New Orleans. The railroads are
doing much for the country. They are
well managed, and in all our trip thus
far we have been promptly on time and
have not missed a connection. They
make better time than in our section of
country. Nearly all those connected
with them in this section are young men,
who are alive to their important duties.

PROHIBITION AS an ISSUE.

From the Emporla Republican.
If prohibition is not perfectly enforced
in Kansas it is not the fault OF the law.
The law is strong and comprehensive.
and if it were vigorously executed in
every city and county there would be no
liquor traffic in this state. lii creating
and maintaining the prohibitory law,
therefore. the Republican party has done
all that it, as party, can reasonably do.
The enforcement of laws depends upon
the strength of public sentiment in the
communities to be governed by them. If
pubic sentiment in Kansas is not suffi-
GENTLY impressed with the value of pro-
hibition as a state policy, the Republican
party cannot compel it to alter its opin
ions, nor can any other party. The task
Is one for the temperance societies, the
churches, the schools and the public
press. 1t is moral, educational work,
not a political one. Having created
the law and successfully championed it
against the organized efforts of its enc
mics, the Republican party can do moth
ng better than to rest on its oars till
public sentiment catches up.
Being prohibitions best friend, it is
manifestly to the interest of the prohibit
tory policy that the Republican party
maintain its supremacy in the state.
Prohibitionists therefore should be So
licitous for Republican success in the
coming campaign, and to that end
should be careful to throw no impedi-
ment in the party's way. The fight this
year will be hard one; every vote that
can be mustered will be needed to retain
Kansas in the column of Republican
states. We cannot afford to ALLEVIATE any
element of the party membership, if it
can be honorably avoided. The exact
number of anti-prohibition Republican
votes in the state is not known, but it
runs up into the thousands. They will
be needed to insure success next Novem-
Der, and if they are not driven away will
be cast for the straight Republican ticket
1t remains for the majority element of
the party to determine whether these
votes shall be gathered in or turned over
to the enemy.
1t would no doubt be satisfaction to
many enthusiastic Prohibitionists to in
sert long plank in the Republican state
platform, reciting how the opponents of
the law had been routed and how the
party is going to stand by the law and
make it still more rigid. But, under the
circumstances, is that necessary or ex-
pedient? We have the law-why should
we continually tantilize the opposition
with it? If they are content to keep
silent on the subject why should not we
be? This is matter of practical politics
as well as of principle. Let us look at it
in practical common sense way. The
unfolding of Republican teachings and
party success are at stake, and the
is, or may be, critical. Would
1t not be better to keep prohibition out
of the platforms and out of the campaign
this year, and battle with an eye single
to the success of the party? Cannot Pro-
as well as Resubmissionists
see the wisdom of such a course? 1t
would seem that all Republicans could
and should. The very life of the party
may depend upon it.
