DR.. RAY is also planting out an assert

nuts, and about fifty pecan, hazel and
other nuts. He will nave about six acres
in nut bearing trees. In California the
nut groves are more profitable than the
fruit orchards, and if Delaware can pro
duce nut bearing trees with profit, 1t will
be a new field for profit. We would ad-
wise every farmer to plant dozen or more
nut bearing trees as au experiment,
Should they prove profitable their exten-
sive growth would soon follow; and, even
should the nuts not sell for high prices,
the satisfaction of having them for home
use would repay the trouble OF setting

At tho hour OF going TO press tho
senate compromise was of and senators
gave it out that unconditional repeal
will shortly pass. By noon to-day some
other conclusion may be reached.
In view OF the vacilatiug policy OF the
senate it is impossible to say what it
may do and unsafe to place confidence
in Any policy that majority OF the ma
jority may formulate, Where there is
so much cowardice, SO much intrigue
60 much bad faith, who can tell what is
to come out OF it?
This much, at least, may BIO relied on
the President will not consent TO any
scheme of surrender and will keep the
screws turned down hard until tho sem
ate shall arrive at a deGuite conclusion
and have done with the silver question.
The President and u large majority
OF the Republican senators arc on the
right side. This is all the people have
to depend on. For tho reat they will
have to wait, watching us they wait,

RopublIcans Arc Not Deceived.

Some of the esteemed opposition
think they are playing remarkably
shrewd game, so exceedingly fine that
it cannot bo seen through. They per-
ceive that the country is out OF sorts
with tho senate for its criminal disre-
gard OF the public welfare and OF COM
mon decency.
They hear tho people denouncing the
obstructing senators and calling on the
majority to assert the right OF the ma
jority 10 rule. In all this they SEQ their
parly's chance to accomplish something
further on. They were opposed to the
house Of representatives doing business
when Mr.. Reed was speaker, and the
Democratic minority rcsor'ed to every
stratagem to prevent action by the ma
jority.
In those days they regarded SIS moth
ing short OF infamous the Republican
determination to conduct the business
OF the house on business principles
They appealed to the country to join
them in resentinc what they called
scheme OF revolution conCocted by the
Republicans in the house and by them
attempted to be put in execution, an at
tempt persisted in until the majority
established beyond question its control
over the house.
Now in power, Democrats arc veerinG
around to another quarter. They
would like to exercise the rights OF the
majority. They wish to enact some
legislation. They arc not particularly
in love with the silver legislation to
which the President is compelling them,
but they do want to wipo out the cleo
ton laws and the protective tariff laws.
These objects they would like to ac-
complish without resorting to cutting
off debate in the senate, but since every
other way may be closed 10 them thoy
are moving towards cloturc. In this
they are entirely right. Ii they have u
majority it is their right to show that
majority on the record after full and
fair discussion. The lroIl feature OF it
all ia that the Republicans nre supposed
to DO blissfulIy ignorant of the real
meaning of this remarkable moral awak-
eninc on the Democratic side,
There is IN clish JOY, something
much more tickling than "ghouIish
glee," over the prospect ottoolins some
body into trap.
To save the wounding OF Democratic
feelings it is to be hoped that Rcpubli-
cans may consent to play the role for
which their friends on the other side
have cast them. Tho Bold Buccancer
who tails asleep on the stage does not
miss anything that is going on, and he
satisfies the management and pleases
the audience.
