plnoer,s nlr Cherrr rrees.

In some remote age the deep, whirling
waters OF the American river at Monte
Rio washed out the rock layers Of long
previous geological formation to the
depth Of probably 200 feet or more, and
this excavation being filed to half its
depth by alluvial material from the
sides Of adjacent hills, formed a deposit
over sixty feet deep and some ten or
twelve acres in present area.
The waters of the American now form
only a small stream, the alluvial deposit
that has made the giant cherry tree
growth being ten or a dozen feet higher
than the usual current of the deep river
channel. The soil Of Hector's cherry
orchard has been bored to over sixty
feet in depth without touching bed rock
or rock of any kind, the alluvial quality
continuing to this great depth. On
about four acres Of this soil black Tar
tartan cherry trees were set in 1862 or
1853 by ancestral relatives of the pres
ent owner, several smaller orchards or
additions having been planted since.
There are $50 large trees that yield 40
boxes, or 400 pounds each, in alternate
years. The trees are kept trimmed of
all dead wood and lime washed every
season, and are still making vigorous and
healthy growth. The tallest tree is GO
feet high, with head from 90 to 90 feet
in width, and over a score more of the
150 large trees are from 40 to 80 feet tall,
with corresponding width of top growth
SO that the excess in height of the tallesi
tree is not very conspicuous.-Country

THE SITUATION, THE REMEDIES.

Tx d Oft ACNf NAA- nAaWAGNA-Fs
The message Of Governor Reynolds is
an able state paper; it's recommendations
are wise and timely. The situation has
been calmly considered and the remedies
prudently and carefully suggested.
The statements are grave and earnest
because the situation is grave.
The Democratic party is charged with
the duty Of adapting the statute laws
aud providing for a change in the funda-
mental law Of the constitution, if nee
essary, to meet the changed social fuan-
cial and political conditions of the times
in this State.
The Democratic party is now and has
always been a conservative party. It's
leaders have always been strict con.
structionists not given 60 change. They
have not changed the fundamental law
at all, unless urgent necessity demanded
a change
It is with this spirit the governors
message Is written. He has already ap-
pointed commission TO consider the
subject Of taxation and TO recommend
changes, il necessary in the present
system. Tie states the situation, but
makes no, recommendation that would
forstall or embarrass that commission.
He advises definite action in regard Ia
calling a constitutional convention. be-
cause, as he'says, the party which elected
him is pledged 10 give the people Q
chance TO call convention IL they wisl
one
There is always grave doubt whether
there Is any suitab time for allowing al
opportunity for irresponsible men &c
whack at the Fundamental law, or trim
and patch It 10 suit the exigenciei
Of peculiar conditions existing, perhaps
; temporarily. Or what is worse still
: these crude or cranky ideas Of what thi
law should be. But there is never
tins when the people may not changl
the entire system Of fundamental law, &
after a calm deliberation, The people wisl
to do SO. It is the peop.e's business
They have a right 20 do what they wisl
to do. even II they make a mistake, whiel
is seldom, ifever.
Then there is the recommendation o
the change IN tue Judiciary TO meet
+, peculiar ezigency which exists now, fo
the frst time in sixty years, aud whicl
may never ccuragaiu.
Governor Reynolds suggests that re

NEWSPAPER OPINION.
rhe Emperor.a nIIemma.

Philadelphia Times
The German Emperor ia finding it hard
sailing without the old pilot. He dis
missed Caprivi from the head Of Prussian
Ministry because he could not make the
Prussians do what the Emperor wanted,
and now the army bill is tied up in the
Imperial Parliament and the Emperor is
threatening a dissolution If 1t is not
passed. Possibly such threats may have
the effect desired but more probably not,
and an appeal TO the constituencies on
this issue certainly does not seem hope
full A great part of Germany is tired
Of the burdens of the military SYSTEM
which not only imposes a heavy tax
in money, but has impaired the
whole industrial system Of the country
IL is with regard TO the universal military
service with its impOverishing effects,
much more than TO the mere direct cost,
that the Reichstag has taken its stand
and an appeal TO the people is not likely
to result any more favorably to the
Emperor's plans. And yet there seems
nothing else for him TO do il he cannot
get his bill through, since he cannot
abandon it now without a dangerous loss
Of authority. 1t is a very difficult posi-
tion even for so self-confdent a ruler,
and at such times he must wish that he
had Bismarck back with his clever way
Of manipulating Parliaments.

How ladies Of india wear bangles.

Glass bangles in India are regarded
as sacred objects. If glass bangle be
accidentally broken, its pieces must be
gathered together and kissed three
times. Every Hindoo woman wears
these ornaments until her husband dies,
when she breaks them with a brick or
stone and substitutes for them gold or
silver ones, a sign in north India that
the wearer is either a widow or a less
estimable woman. The demand for
glass bangles is never failing. They
are manufactured in abundance in the
northwestern provinces as well as in the
Puniaub.-New York Press.

the man was desperate for wantof work.
He had been on the streets for weeks,
and his children were starving. 1t hap

The women who apply for places are
very hard to get rid of. When informed
that there is no vacancy they usually
say, 1.-THE secretary can always make

most humble and pathetic appeals, say

viduals, after securing situations and
occupying them for two or three days,
are pretty sure to demand three things

THE proposition that Cleveland's in

New York, to assist or retard the policy
of this administration in Congress, is
interference while the machine work Of
Senator Hill is pure godliness is as silly
and as monstrous as the proposition that
those seventy-two voters from the "snap
convention" should saddle Hill on the
Democratic party as the candidate for
the presidency IL was said that those
seventy.two votes represented the Dem
ocratic party in New York II was said
that II the dictation Of the men who
managed those votes was not ac-
cepted the Democratic party was
lost. It was said that Cleveland
could not carry New York. The events
proved all of these things false. Cleve.
land gets his strength everywhere else
by defying the New York machine. The
truth is, Mr.. Murphy ought not to 60 to
the Senate from New York. There is no
escape from that conclusion, as there is
no necessity for sending him, except
some necessity that is unmentionable.
The fact that Mr.. Cleveland says he is
not fit man ought TO be sufficient to
prevent any reasonable Democrat from
voting for him. There are other men in
