ly, even in laying by, and to the row
as high a ridge as possible 'to keep
it fom blowing down. Even
sweeps were laughed at as chicken
scratch" work. Nothing but turn
ing plow would answer, and the man
who was seen running a side or other
harrow through his corn was laughed
at. Now it is well known that the
harrow is the very best impliment for
cultivating corn, and that it should be
run deep enough to uproot the small
weeds and grass, without disturbing
the roots of the corn. And still there
is much to learn in every branch of
farming-and many there be who

CLEVELAND AND SILVER.

to show his hostility to silver and i:

was the paramount question before
thecountry to-day even oversha5owine
that of the tariff.
We had expected better of Mr.
Cleveland than this. We had been
led to expect less antagonism from
him than this, especially when he is
bound to realize that very large
number of Democrats advocate the
free and unlimited coinage of this
metal. We have urged that the pres
ident elect would not be so hostile to
this measure during his present ad-
mistration, but would yield his opin-
ion somewhat to that of his party, but
if accredited utterances of his are
true, he seems bent on absolutely
outdoing himself on this point 1t
he persists in this course we will be
forced to believe that he is more a
dictator than the statesman we have
always claimed for him. The Proc
REss has more than once sought to
quell rising storm by declaring to
the discontented people that the new
president would not be 50 strongly
opposed to free silver. We have
claimed that he would stand on the
platform of his party irrespective of
his own ideas. But our opinion on
this point is beginning to weaken.
