They are celebrating the return of common sense to the workers In the Rhode Island mills, who have found out that @ change Is not necessarily an improvement. They are celebrating Republican pluralities which are surely significant of turn in the tide They are celebrating Republican gains which surely show that Democracy has been weighed by the voters of Rhode Island and found wanting. They are crow ing with old time fervor and newborn hope and confidence. Just hear themi Their pleasing chorus will be matched by one that will arise and swell in this State next fall. It will be chorus that can be heard in Rhode Island even if the wind happens to be blowing strongly from the East.

PROHIBITION IN IOWA.

Prohibition in Iowa seems to have been about as effective as prohibition in Maine or prohibition in Rhode Island. Interest ing revelations as to the amount of liquor selling in Iowa under the prohibitory law are being made now that license-tsx sys- tenn is to be substituted. The city of Davenport, for instance, has about two hundred and twenty saloons, which have paid into the municipal treasury two hun dred dollars year apiece for the privilege of selling liquor in defiance of the State law. When the census of 1890 was taken, the population of Davenport was only 2s .s72, and nobody claims that 1t ex- cseds, If indeed it reaches, thirty thousand now. This Is at the rate of one saloon to every one hundred ahd thirty six men, women, and children, record seldom equslled in any part of the country.
 The license-tax system that Is to bs tried in Iowa can't very well add to the number of saloons in Davenport. It will perhaps decrease them, for it provides for the assessment of a special tsx of $500 against property wherein liquor Is sold.

 Down ia the orchard rows The Wind gets out his trumpet sweet, And blows, and blows, and blows. The Dark is in my chamber here, The Wind out in the tree. My mother says I need not fear
 They will do aught to me. For. far above the Wind, the Dark, Sits God, who made them all The grass, the star like rcd spark, The green bough by the wall My mother with her lamp comes in; The Dark goes out the door; The table legs throw shadows thin Across the chamber floor.

POULTRY POINTS.

AS SOON as the old hens can be spared
.or market they should be fattened and
sold. This ought to be done before the
hens begin molting.
IF disease appears and obstinately re
sists remedies, it is better to begin with
new stock than to breed from thoss
that have been sick long time.
MARK the pullets that you want tc
keep as soon as you know which ones
they are. Then there will be no dan
ger of their being sold or eaten by mis-
take.
THE hens should always have some
where to dust It will aid them to rid
themselves of lice. If a spoonful OF in.
sect powder be added to the dust, all
the better.
CHICKENS should not be allowed to
60 on the roosts until they are ten OF
twelve weeks old. If allowed to roost
too young their growth and appear
ance will be injured.
A SMALL box Of charcoal kept where
the hens can have access to it will ar
rest disorders of the bowels from over
feeding. Use it freshly burned and
break it it into reasonably small pieces

THE enormous circulation of the New
YORK Tribune. now the largest of any
political weekly in the United States. un-
doubtedly did much to influence the
country IN the right direction in the late
campaign. Having sharpeDed its arrow
and spear afresh, The Tribune has again
taken the trail for big game. To secure
the Presidency in 1896 for the Republican
party, is now the object of its labor. The
Tribune is great paper and is commend
ed to our readers. Roswell G. Horrs ar
tIcles on the Tariff, Coinage and Labor,
are alone worth the price of the paper.
Friendly to the old soldier, devoting much
space to Agriculture, and printing every
week superb and absolutely unequalled
Market, reports. .editorially able and en-
teriainlng, The Tribune is worthy a place
in every home. 1t illustrates the news of
the day profusely. Thousands of Demo-
Gratis take it for its articles on public af-
fairs and its purity, decency and freedom
from smut. The Tribune stands like a
rock against the reactionary policies of the
Democratic party. Every Republican
should have it. The Tribune Almanac for
1895, out in January, and % cents copy,
will be valuable on account of its full re-
turns of the phenomenal elections of 1894

to be reason in the complaint against the

eminent jurist as Justice Dixon is appre-

its provisions? If the next Legislature
will enact one good comprehensive game
law that will prevent tinkering and
amendment for years to come, 1t will be a

to work for the advantage of

more successfully than the man

country have done it for us.
We bought heavily abroad at
almost nominal costs for Fall
selling when merchants gener-
ally were afraid to venture.
Result: plenty of Just the

to snap MP any tempting
lots that appeared.
Then came the Cloak-makers'
strike and a prospect of search
ty. Makers strained every
nerve to get out garments re-
tailers rushed forward with ur-
gent orders at increased prices.
Within the past week or so it
developed that there was a flood
instead of a famine. Almost
every retailer overstocked with
high cost goods. Some of the
foremost manufacturers over
loaded.
Doesn't take a bright manu-
facturer long to correct such a
mistake. An instant market
with instant cash is his first
concern. Make the loss and try
again.
They've been max
