+ was 1:30 by the rightful time when the
presidential party arrived on the stand The
first was Mrs. Cleveland, alert and smiling
as usual; with her mother, Mrs. Perrine,
with Chairman Norris Of the reception COM
mttee. Behind her trooped the Stevenson
party with its numerous bevy of fresh-faced
girls. The crowds recognized Mrs. Cleveland
at first view and shouted loudly and long.
The snow of the morning had ceased to fall,
but the wind was shifting to the northwest
whence came a cutting, icy blast, straight from
Nova Scotia. The norther caught the snow
and blew it in binding clouds into the crowd.
Finally Marshall Dan Ransdell appeared at
the door with his brother marshall of the SUI
preme court. After them came cx-Vice-Presi-

The Procession.

The bugles sounded Forward march the
officers repeated their commands and the line
of march was again taken up from the point
where the head of the column had halted OPP
poste the treasury department.
Mr.. Cleveland saluted the national flag when
it passed him. He also bowed to personal
friends in the parade. He stood on the stand
in the face of the bowling wind, not seeming
to mind the cold and the waves of drifted snow
that were whirled in his face. His ovcrcoat
was buttoned tightly about his throat. During
the whole time the parade was passing Mr.
Cleveland stood in one position and carefully
scanned the lines of marching men.
A huge white ba nlSet was sent out shortly
after the procession began passing. under the
folds of which Vice-President Stevenson and
Chairman Harrity made themselves compare
lively comfortable. Towards evening the Ia
dies of the party retired from the stand and
did not return.
But the enthusiasm of the multitude in the
vicinity of the reviewing stand was not half
vented until Gen. Fitzhugh Lee made his ap-
pearance at the head of the third division. The
ovation that had been given all along the route
Of the parade, apparently reached its highest
point as he saluted the new president. Cheer
followed cheer, and the thr0ng on the stand
Joined in the demonstration. The shouts were
taken up with renewed vlgor when the preSi-
dent returned Gen. Lees salutation, and long
after the ex-governor had passed the echo of
cheers in his honor came to those of the presi-
Dental party.
When Gov. Peck of Wisconsin dotfed his hat
to the president renewed cheering greeted him.
The first grand division passed the reviewing
stand at Sis o'clock exactly.
Gen. Josiah Porter, adjutant general OF the
national guard OF the state of New York, with
mounted staff, rode at the head of the second
grand division. One of the features OF the pa
rade was the Tammany hall society of New
York Gov. Flower and staff, who rode in car
riages were enthusiastically cheered all along
the line. When the governor reached the press
stand he responded to the applause which
greeted him by rising in his carriage lifting
his hat and bowling q number Of times. Again,
as he passed the presidential stand. he stood
erect in his carriage and bowed to the presi-
dent.
The shadows of night we're beginning to fall
when the Cleveland Democratic club OF Buffalo
passcd the stand. Marching proud and erect,
with their uniform black top coats and silk
hats they made an appearance that did credit
TO the president home. Every head was barred
as the contingent went by to the strains OF
Annie Laurie
The members Of the Duckworth club OF Gin
cinnati headed the procession with company
of regulars, and the members OF the Young
Mems Democratic club of New York brought
their umbrellas to military attention and sa-
luted the president as they went by the stand
It was exactly O'Clock when the last rank
went BY. and disbanded in front OF the army
department so that the parade had occupied
but ten minutes short OF five hours IL passing

there is none that develops so much

the exceeding cheapness and nutri-

STOCK AND FARM.

Kansas City, Mo-, Journal: The man.
ner in which hogs are coming to market
now indicates a good crop in. the coun-
try. Not only are many more hogs be-
ing marketed now than this time last
year, but their quality is unusually good.
Chicago, last week, had 10000 more
hogs than the same week last year, Kan
sas City, Kas., $4,000 more, and Omaha,
22,500 more, while st. Louis reported
1000 less. Net gain at these four mar
kets, 1880. And if the old adage is to
hold good this year that plenty of corn
means plenty of hogs, the gain in the
receipts must continue and be even
greater in the months to come than those
that have just passed.
Topeka Capital: A cattleman said:
"Western breeders of dairy cattle have

surprised people who did not know
them by capturing all the best premiums
at the Kansas, Iowa and Illinois state
fairs last season. Last week in the Hol-
stein exhibit at Chicago the younger
animals caught the pace set the year
before and walked away with more pre-
miums in proportion to the number OF
animals shown than any other herd Mr..
Stone was fortunate in buying prize
winners for his foundation stock, but he
is raising others that are as good or
better. The promise is now that his
herd will soon be the best in the coun-
try and that it will enforce recognition
as such. This will be only less to the
credit of Kansas livestock interests in
general than to that of the breeder
whose skill built up the herd"

urer's Office was full every day of the

there was only a handful, during the
afternoon only ten. There was very
little buying for speculation. The coun-

The opening of the Cherokee strip has
opened the way for colony of the fol-

cooperative town to be operated on the
plan outlined in Bellamy's book, "Look-

filed with the secretary of state, of the
Cherokee Cooperative Townsite compa-
ny, which has been organized with head
quarters at Wichita. Their scheme is to
locate their town in the strip on the day
of the opening. on a site already select
ed, but the location of which is an abso-
Lutte secret. They propose to control the
entire town and will refuse to sell lots to-
anyone. Cooperation is to be the rule
in everything. Apartment houses are
being built in sections and will be erect
ed on their townsite on the day of the
opening. These apartments will be pro-
vided with large kitchen and dining
room where all the people of the colony
will be fed. One big store will contain
everything the people will need. There
are said to be several hundred persons
interested in the scheme. The incorpor-
ators are: w. E. Reeves, I. N. Singer,

Canada Thistles Not Seeding.

The Canada thistle propagates so
readily from it's roots that it does not
need seed to become an untolerable
nuisance in cultivated grounds
There are conditions in which seed
does not form usually on very rich,
mellow soil where the root growth is
unobstructed. In some Western ag-
ricultural papers we have seen COM
munication, saying that the Canada
thistle never seeds sThe writer's have
examined heads of bloom and have
found them entirely barren, But this
negative evidence proves nothing. We
have noticed both the seeding and
non-seeding specimens. The latter
were always more rank in growth
and usually had a red bloom. The
thistles that furnish seed have
mostly bloom very much lighter
colored.

Harvesting Barley.

The secret of successful barley har-
vesting is to begin early while the
grain is comparatively green. If the
cutting is delayed until the grain is
dead ripe, the grain will not fill so
well nor will it be so clean and bright.
Rains, and even heavy dews, stain
standing barley when it gets fairly
ripe. On the other hand, we have
cut barley, put it in cocks while green,
and after heavy rain the grain came
out with scarcely any rain. A we'll.
made barley cock is almost imperv.
ious to rain, the water shedding off
from the long boards without touch
ing the grain. But such cocks should
be turned over after the rain has
stopped, as the lower and shaded
parts will hold water long enough to
stain the grain.

FAIR VIEW OF FACTS.
A Partial Enumeration Of the
Causes of Financial De.
preston.

The people are beginning to reala Q
that the cause of the present financial
depression is not owing to the perfdy
and misrule of the republican party and
especially to the so-called clandestine
legislation of 1878. The present crisis
has many causes and had it not been for
the steady integrity and business ability
of tie republican party through a long
period Of years the collapse would have
come much earlier. The business of the
country has been held up by the power
of the old party for several years and as
soon as change came in the admins
tration, the collapse came. The failure
cannot be wholly attributable to the
action or saon-Gction Of the party now
in power, but that the "change" which
the people voted for precipitated matters
none can deny. A long period of rapid
extension Of business with its accompa-
nying speculation, the excessive inpor-
tation OF goods, the extravagant life Of
the American people, the failure of Eng
lish capital in Argentine and Australia
to earn an income, and absolute loss of
capital causing English holders to un-
load American securities, the peculiar
situation of our treasury allowing gold
to be distracted and sent abroad. ara
among the causes to be enumerated.
But the rash and boasting assertions of
the party in power that it would over
turn things in general and the tariff and
silver IN particular, scared the people
and added fictitious causes to the natur-
ally bad conditions which already sxisted.

Liquid Manure for Melons.

II a small amount of fine, rich
manure is left to soak twenty-four
hours in warm place, it will make
a liquid fertilizer Of the greatest
value for musk melons and water
melons. Do not pour the manure
water over the vines. Rather remove
a little earth from the hill, make
some holes six or eight inches deep,
pour the liquid in these, and then re-
place with the earth that had been
taken away No other mulching is
so good as this dry earth on the sur
face, and one good watering after
this fashion will add greatly to the
value and earliness Of the crop. The
melon crop pays largely if early and
large, and does not pay at all if to be
sold wholly when like fruit is abun-
dant
