HARRisBrRG. June 20 During the session

was made Tor the passage Of a bill to repeal q
special sunday law In Allegheny county which
is particularly obnoxious to the publishers Of
sunday newspapers, inasmuch as II imposes a
hne OF S25 for each offence instead OF 81 as
provided in the general law, and because the

was generally believed that Secretary Harrity

SOMETHING ABOUT HOGS.

The st. Paul Trade Journal has been
discussing pork raising i'll Minnesota in
its recent issues, and the current num-
Der contains letter from President
Stickney, answering some questions of
a correspondent as to markets and
prices, which he closes by saying: 1.-The
doctrine that each farmer Of Northern
Minnesota and North Dakota should
raise each year few hogs is a part of
the gospel of diversified farming which
every man interested in these states
should continuously proclaim. i'll SEA
son and out OF season." The Trade
Journal regrets that its circulation is
restricted to business men, so that its
counsel cannot reach the farmers save
"a it percolateS through the classes it
reaches. The GLOBE gladly lends its
circulation among the farmers Of the
state to the spread Of this gospel.
Southern Minnesota went through an
experience which may be valuable to
the farmers of tho more northern parts
of the state and our neighbor on the
west. Up to 1878 wheat was the main
product of the farms in that portion of
the state. Diminishing vi ids and
shrinking prices did not suffice to en-
force the lesson that specially farming,
particularly when wheat was the spe-
cialty, was losing business. Provi-
dence sent them the blight and the
chinch bug about this time for several
successive years. Those who tied their
faith to wheat reIinqulshed their farms
to the IN lrtgagd1S anI w,nt west. Tue
shrewder ana better farmers saw early
that a change was their only salvation.
Cattle, Slow OF growth and increase and
demanding capital. could not be waited
for. The fecuud hog, costing little and
Increasing with great rapidity, offered
the solution.
The change was rapid, and ths effect
surprising. Prior to that time most
farmers raised few hogs. dozen on
the average. These were usually
slaughtered about the end OF tho year,
in freezing weather, dressed, and tile
surplus. after filling the barrels in the
cellar for the years use, was hauled off
10 market. The winter of III was a soft
one, open andwarn until after midwinter,
and much dressed pork spoiled on their
hands. After this new era. with its in
crease of the supply, buyers engaged in
the purchase and shipment OF pork in
every village ami at every station. The
hogs were driven to market, not at one,
but at all seasons, whenever they were
ready to be tur1eI OFF.
Up to this time the records in the
registers of deeds offices told mainly
story OF mortgages renewed or fore
closed; they formed the bulk of the in
strumehts recorded. SitistactiOns, save
by foreclosure, were rare. Deeds, ex-
cept those of the sheriff, were unusyal
After this the proportion was directly

tive of the states, to preserve their pre-
negatives intact; to prevent the en-
croachment on them of hasty house
swayed by passion of popular impulse.
And yet it is q fact of great moment
that the senate has repeatedly inaugu-
rated measures, and sometimes passed
them, which struck directly at the au-
tOnomy of the states. Its recent history
is prolific in these, showing rapidly
developing tendency. We need allude
here to only the Blair educational bill,
the pure food bill and the antl-option
bill for illustration. Designed to be the
seat of wise and sober conservatism,
which would safeguard the liberties of
the people and the sovereignty OF the
states against the rashnesS of the house,
it has become the source of radical meas
ures, and the distruSted house has be-
come the bulwark of the nation.
Cnhappily, we have not the ultimate
source of relief which the English COM
mons haS-we cannot flood our house of
lords with fresh blood TO overwhelm
conservative stupidity. But public
opinion has long been considering
remedy which IS feasible. The senate
would never consent to adopt an amend
ment abOlishing itself. but it could be
compelled by public opinion to pass one
providing for the choice of senators by
a general election, thus giving to the
members closer contact with the
people and 4 sharper sense of RESPONSE
bility to them. Last year California
submitted this question to the vote of
the people. and but few thousand,
about $4,000 votes, were cast against it.
There is no question but that the same
proportion obtains in every state in the
Union, and it only needs the provoca-
ton or such spectacle as the senate Is
now presenting TO put in motion de-
mand for this reform, backed by nine
tenths of the people. 1t may be one of
the good results which will flow from
the present action of that body.
