as provided in the programme and was
greeted with the greatest enthusiasm.
His address YVES highly interesting. II
was evident that ii came right from the
heart and went TO the hearts Of his hear
ers. He spoke as follows:
II is not an improper thought to bracket
the Presldent-elect and the Democratic
party as joint workers. do not mean TO
intimate that he or any one else is greater
than MS party, for | am an intense be-
lever in the old Democratic thought that
everybody is wiser than anybody, and
that the average public opinion OF an
organization of free citizens who form
themselves into party for patriotic pur-
poses is better than the opinion OF any OF
its members.
But the late election may well be said
to be the triumph OF Democratic princi-
pies rather than Of the Democratic party
and IL Is at least doubtful If il could have
been secured under any other leader
Under our system of presidential cleo
ton the very large majority received OF
electoral votes does not indicate so great
a majority in the popular vote; and the
change OF comparatively small number
of voters In certain Of the States would
have defeated Mr.. Cleveland

SiOns TO us were Oll GNNOtHt, IL 10

policies and practices.
He represented revision OF the tarih
upon the principle that the power to levy
taxes was solely revenue power. TO be
used only for the purpose OF furnishing
TO the Government the necessary revenues
for lis econofn cal expenditures.
He stood for a sound and stable cur
rency, SO that every wage-worker and
every producer could receive for his sweat
and his product such dollar as was
the equa! Of any dollar received by the
capitalist.
He represented the purity of official po-
sition and the integrity OF official power.
He had been the pioneer In the move

ToPoLoBAMPo VICTIMS.

A Distressed Family Tell OF Their
Misfortune.
There arrived by the steamer New
bern last night from Mazstlan James
Alfred Kinghorn. Jones, one OF the nu-
merous sufferers by the Topolobampo
colonization scheme, says the San Fran
cisco Cell. Mr.. Jones is accompanied
by his family, consisting Of wife and
eleven children, ranging from mature
young woman to boy in knickerbock-
ers. They tell distressful story of the
misfortunes which have attended them
since they left their home in England IS
months ago. enticed by the roseate prog
psctus of the colony managers. After
l6 months of struggle they abandoned
all hope, bade goodby to nearly the
entire savings Of lifetime, and will
now seek fresh start in British Colum-
bia.
While the climate and environments
of Topolobatnpo are not favorable to the
development of Anglo-Saxon civilization
it would still be possible. they say. for a
colony to exist and have the necessaries
OF life If there were anything like inteli-
gent management, but there are three
factions, each ready to spring at each
others throat and ell retarding ths de-
velopment which the 400 colonists would
be glad to go ahead with If those in
authority would only allow them to
move forward.
Unless q change OF management takes
place soon the colony will hardly be
able to find existence. Most OF those re-
maining would be only too glad to leave
if they could save out of their weeks
enough 20 carry them back to civiliza-
tion and obtain q new start in life.

Pruning Melon Vines.

Pomona Progress: 1t is well-known
fact among experienced fruit growers
that melon vines are inclined to put out
more branches and set more small mel.
ons than they can support and mature.
If left to grow at will, many of the mel
ons win not come to maturity, and those
that do will be OF small, interior quali-
ty. The man who understands the busi-
ness OF growing melons and desires to
produce fine product will carefully
prune his vines with sharp knife, cut.
ting away unnecessary branches and
email melons, thus leaving the entire
vitality of the plant to mature a few fine
specimens. Thie is particularly true in
the case of watermelons grown on rich
soil, though it applies to other varieties:
II melon vines were pruned and looked
after half as carefully as grapevines and
fruit trees, much nicer product would
be seen on the market.

steady increase of crime. sickneps and
disease since the beginning Of the cen
tury. To what can it be attributed? To
the Law Of hereditary descent? For the
great MACS of the immigrants have come
from congested districts OF the old world,
forced to leave by the necessities OF lie
almost. The cities of this country are
the hotbede OF crime, and it is the same
in the old world, and there Re where the
most Of the immigrants come from TO-
day.
People that are crowded together by
force OF necessity in large cities become
morally de based through indiscriminate
intercourse. Children born under such
circumstances fmpsrt their nature to
their offspring, which is hereditary de.
scent, and the result of auch crowding OF
people in the past and present time Is to
be seen in the present and fast increas-
ing number of the criminal element.
A law could be passed. barring out
everyone that Was not fitted to become
a worthy citizen by reason OF his educa-
ton, and that and that only ie law
that will be Justice to each and every
one that seeks admittance to this coun-
try. A law could be passed requiring
an applicant for admission to this
country to be able to read, write and
speak the English language. 1t need
not bar out touriuts or visitors, only
thoao who seek to make living here.
This is the only Just solution Of the i'm
migration problem, that hsn been on
the minds of the people for years.
Other laws could be passed prohibiting
them herding together the way they do
like lot Of pigs, which they resemble
in their nature and features when you
look at their eyes, for blood will tell.
The same laws could be passed by China
and bar out what few Americans there
are in China who cannot speak their
language. Time will tell the tale Of
natures laws, OF hereditary deacent and
the survival OF the tittest, for they are
both to be seen in their workings to an

THOSE ORLoFF HORSES.

Senator stauford's Plans Concerning
Them VIII he Followed.
Breeders of horses will be interested
to learn that the plans of the late Senator
Stanford touching the new Orloff horses
about to be imported from the czar'f
own stables will be carried ont, says the
San Francisco Examiner. The senator
was impressed with the strength and
stamina of the aristocratic trotters in
the stables of the emperor, and he
thought that a cross Of the Russian i'm
perial etraln with the American trottei
might yield q product that would dis
play the best qualities of both.
The experiment will be given thor
ough test, the lines laid down by SEN
ator Stanford to be followed strictly.
The intention is to mix on the choicest
Pslo Alto blood with that OF the Rus
SLAMS.
The blue -blooded Orloffs, while show
ing good speed, have, in addition de.
gree of endurance that few Amerloans
can understand. They are driven over
all kinds OF roads at hreakneck pace,
dragging heavy loads, and thought of
training with such thing as bicycle
sulky never entered the mind or i'm
agination of Russian horse, even when
dreaming of horse heaven.

say that one great difference between

French agricultural scientists are
hotly engaged in the question, not OF
feeding stock, but of feeding the soil. la
other words, how best to manure land
to maintain it's fertility. There are
three schools represented. One main
tains that barnyard manure alone suf-
fees; the other that mineral fertilizers
simply are adequate; while the third
asserts that the barnyard manure ought
to be eomplemented by the mineral
agents.
The latter view is the one generally
accepted. The soil is viewed as a rock,
at which plants feed. Humus is as nee
essary as the laboratory wherein
the transformation OF foods for
plants is effected and prepared for as
eimilation. 1t is requisite then to
keep up the store of organic matter in
the soil, and that barnyard manure con-
tributes to secure. But the latter does
not contain sufficient elements OF fertili-
ty to produce heavy crope, nor is its &C
tion uniformly beneficial for every soil
or for dissimilar plants.
It is here where the role OF mineral
fertilizers comes into play by supplying
nitrates, phosphates and alkalis accord
ing as the demand for them may be
special and peculiar to the soil and its
vegetation. Farmyard manure alone
can postpone but cannot prevent the
ultimate exhaustion of the soil. Nor
can the employment OF mineral Ter
tilizers prevent the soils exhaustion II
the supply OF humus is not kept up.
II the soil be naturally rich in organic
matter, as is the case with the CONNER
cial kitchen gardens around Paris, min
eral manures can be employed eingly
for several years. Alone organic and
artificial manures are insufficient. Com
bine their action then for the mainte-
nance of fertility and large returns OF
produce.
It is in this direction that farmers are
moving. There is quite q mania set
ting in for the pfoughing under OF green
crops to swell the amount of humus in
the soil, and rage for gypsum appliea-
tions, the latter being wholly inexpll-
cable.
Closely allied to this subject is the ap-
plication of mineral fertilizers to the
growth of vegetables, the latter being
now cultivated in field gardens as o very
Yemunerative branch OF horticulture.
In the south OF France, where early
vegetables are extensively cultivated for
the markets of Paris and London, ntable
manure is scarce. Cuitivators now rely,
not on beds of the latter, but on cotton
seed cake, some at the rate OF one to two
tons per acre. This manure not only
augments the yield of vegetables, and
most markedly OF spring potatoes, but
secures their maturity three weeks
earlier.
One ton of the cotton seed cake con-
tains AZ pounds of phosphoric acid, so
mounds Of nitrogen and 33 pounds OF
potash. 1t ia to these fertilizers then
that the action OF the cake is due-not
to the organic matter, as it would re-
quire "a tons of farmyard manure per
acre to supply the same quantity OF
phosphoric acid, ETC., as exists in one
ton of the cake.-Ex.
