THE DISPATCHES CRITICISM.

In reply TO the Dispatches article Of
yesterday we ask 1t how are reforms in
ones party to be secured if not by dis
cussing the necessity for them?
The party and its aims and the party
management are two very different
things. The party exists to cause gov
eminent to be so conducted that certain
ends will be attained. II abuses have
crept into the party government and man
agement, that threaten to imperl the ex-
istence Of the party itself, we insist It
Is the duty Of a good party man to point
them out and demand that they shall be
corrected That is the way to secure good
party government and that we hold TO be
every good citizens duty as opposed TO
the usual plan Of kicking out Of the traces
and Joining so-calied independents" II
our party adheres to the abuses that we
have discussed we shall have 10 dispo-
sition 10 explain our utterances away I'm
the next campaign. We shall be able
to do no more than depiore the necessity
for them.
INCONSISTENCY
between what we have said Of conven-
lions being formed by courthouse rings
and the county-court meetings we have
suggested for the people TO express their
opinions in on the senatorial question. We
have not proposed that the people who
assemble in the meetings shall instruct"
their representatives in the sense OF com
handing them for whom they shall vote
TO be senator. Our claim has been that
the member OF the Legislature is bound
by all the moral responsibilities OF a rep
resentative 10 cast his vote for the per-
son whom he believes the people he rep
resents want as senator. We have sug-
gested these courthouse meetings Of ciu-
gems as method Of ascertaining the
wishes of the people on this question We
do not at ali claim that a member of the
Legislature would be bound 10 cast his
vote as a courthouse meeting declar-
cd that he should. for he might
know enough OF the facts 10 know
that a public meeting at the court
house did not really voice the SEN
timent OF the county, and. in that
case. he should pay no attention 10 Il.
But we do claim that he is under a moral
obligation TO east LIS vote as ne believes
the bulk OF his people want him TO cast
It, and we insist that the most probable
way Of determining how they want him
TO cast II Is by public meetings Of the
citizens fully advertised

These people come from the PIEDMONT

Limo in the Orchard.

Lime is an indispensable plant food
for an orchard, for the reason that the
trees contain more lime than any other
mineral matter taken from the soil. It
is this use of lime that renders lime
stone soil SO excellent for fruit trees.
The lime may be applied on the grass
if the orchard is thus covered, and gyp-
sum may be used instead of lime if de-
sired, SO far as its immediate effects
are concerned. But lime has much
more effect on the land chemically,
and indirectly by its results on the
organic matter of the soil, as well as
on the mineral matter. and thus the
actual lime is better than the sulphate.
Ten bushels per acre, given at inter
walls of four or five years, have been
found better than a larger application
at longer intervals. Two dollars and
twenty-five cents is an excessive price
for lime, and more than it should cost
for land use; it would be cheaper to
buy wood ashes at twenty-five cents a
