WARRANTED TO KILL.

The New York Tribune says editorally:
1t looks as if the second congress, to be-
gin next December, would be an inquest
on the body of the Democratic party.
done to death by demagogues. Many
kinds of political quacks have been dos
ing this party, until its system is under
mined. 1t has now come to fight be
tween two. the tariff quack and the sill
yer quack. Each says that the other
has been poisoning the party, and each
is right Each says that if the other =
drug Is taken next summer, November
will bring a corpse, But each is SO blind
that he cannot see that his own d Use
is just as fatal.
The tariff quack has been improving
pass, he says. because most of the Demo
Gratis in Congress took the dose made
up by that fraud Bland, and labeled free
coinage. Men in great numbers were
disguised, lost faith that the Dem
ocIatic party could be trusted to do any
decent thing, made up their minds to
teach it that bad money would not do for
Americans, and cast their votes agains!
it with the set purpose to make sure
1t, defeat if it did not at once abjure
Bland dose. There is truth IN that.
The silver quack strikes home by prov.
ing tariff reform was made the great
issue in Rhode Island, and Mr.. Cleve
land. the apostle OF that faith. was plac
ed in the forefront of battle. Silver was
put out of the way. Men of high place
and fame IN the party came to teach
Rhode Island the duty and the beauty
of the Wooden tariff bill. The workers
of wooden mills knew that the bill
would close mills by the hundred, or
else force them to take British or German
wages. The mechanics and artisans OF
that busy State thought time to settheir
heels on this free trade viper, which is
ever trying to kill their industries. That
made defeat sure and crushing too
much of Cleveland's dose did the job
There Is truth in that.
The New York Sun hits the tariff
quacks hard blows thus:
In 1888 the Democratic party went
crazy for tariff reform, and trotted into
the mud behind an elephantine econo-
mist of the mugwumps. Licking No. l.
" In 1891 the Ohio Democrats, sticking
to the same old tariff reform as pro-
pounded by the same old corpulent
Golden, became unprotected mats for
Major Mckinley and the Republican
Party to wipe their feet on. Licking
No. 2.
- In 1892 the Rhode Island Democrats
took up the same old howl and fight for
the same old tariff reform. and the
same old sarcotic dervish. Licking No.

SHEEP CULTURE.
THE WEST VIRGINIA AGRICULTURAL Ex-
PERTINENT STATION WISHES TO GIVE
sHEhP INDUSTRY SOME SPECIAL
ATTENTION.

MoRGANTowN, w. VA, April IA
Mr.. A. d. Hopkins, of the Experiment
Station, is preparing a bulletin upon
Sheep Industry for West Virginia. =
for free distribution by the Agricultural
Experiment Station. He has been with.
and has handled sheep all his life and
during the last two years has visited
nearly every county in the State. His
convictions are that there are great pos
sibilities in the growing of market lambs
and fat sheep. as well as the production
of wool. as the leading and most profita
bic farm products for many West Vir-
ginia farmers. and it will be the objects
of this bulletin to place in their hands
valuable and practical information upon
the subject of profitable methods and
breeds; the treatment of diseases, insect
pests. etc.
To make this bulletin of the greatest
value, information is desired upon the
following points. and sheep breeders and
farmers interested in sheep husbandry
are asked to correspond with Mr.. Hop
kins. at Morgantown. w. Va. who will
be glad to hear from anyone who has
any original ideas upon the care of sheep
and profits and losses of the business.
etc. Answers to the following questions
are especially desired:
Whist breed of thoroughbred lambs
seem to produce the best results in the
improvement of common sheep?
What are the different breeds used
for this purpose.
The name and address of each breeder
of thoroughbred sheep is desired, and
the name or names of the breeds kept by
each
What method of management seems
to yield the greatest profit?
What disease or other troubles. if any
are affecting the sheep?
These questions are intended to ap-
ply to each district or county and should
be answered accordingly. 1t is desired
that the farmers will feel at full liberty
to write and give the benefit of their ex-
perience and observations. During the
coming year it is desired 10 give the live
stock industry of the State more special
attention. and as leader in this work
MIR. Hopkins will discuss at length in
one or more bulletins the questions re-
lating to sheep husbandry.
1t may be added in conclusion that a
farmer has never be known in this State,
who stuck to the sheep business through
thick and thin, through good and tad
report. who did not make money. and
to-day. the uniformly successful farm
ers, in the sections of the State largel :
devoted to sheep, are the men who have
given their principal attention to sheep.
4 properly managed. it is undoubtedly
one of the safest and most profitable
business in which farmers in this State
can engage.
