Dear Sirs: In reply to yours Of the 7th

bought of you, principally as top-dressinng
on oats. Applied it about the 10th of March,
and in my opinion the yield was increased
from as or III bushels per acre to 40 or As
per acre. was much plensed with the dress,
ing. In days after the application could
see II marked improvement in the growth and
condition of the crops. The soil on which
crop was grown is a light sandy loan, which,
without fertilizer, would produce say, rs
bushels oats per acre, or l2 bushels corn; |
used some Of the ''Cerealite" on corn, applied
it at time Of planting and was much pieaseo
with the result. The corn grew of rapidly
aud natured early | am much pleased with
your "Cerealite," and will continue TO use 1t.
Yours very respectfully.

LEGITIMATE FRUITS.

Again this week We have to com.
men. on the Dispensary Law and the
m.uner in which it is being enforced.
1t is not . grateful task, for We are
thoroughly siok Of B. R. Tillmao'
that oeafessediy eold-blooded dema
gogue and tyrans. and his whiskey law.
There are other subjects we should
much prefer that are Of serious impor-
s.nee. aud when serious topics failed
ne could turn to fish and snake stories,
for the season is almost at hand. In
stead Of such simple and harmless and
entertaining topics, we end it, each
week. our unpleasant task to present to
our readers some new outrage upon Law.
good government or personal rights
by the Governor of the State or his
creatures.
This week it is the killing of Craw-
ford Ballew and serious wounding OF
his brother in-law, Moore, at Wexford,
Spartanburg County. by posse OF
dispensary coustables. Who these men
were We do not know, having never
heard of them before. They we're poor
men, small farmers or laborers. yet
white men aud citizens with dependent
families. But being poor men, of 10
influence aud their families not able to
20 into the courts to protect their
rights We suppose no more will be
heard about the case. Or if anyone
should undertake to make the slayers
of Bsllew auswerable to the law.
Gov. Tillmao in bis position Of supe-
riority to the law can pardon them.
Bsllev and Moore may have been
liquor sellers. they may have been
makers Of mooushine liquor, as charged
10 the correspondence in the Public
Printers Register, for all ne know.
1t may be true that they we're poor
white trash aud no better than negroes.
ss intimated in some Of the accounts
Of the bushwhackiug, but If all of
these charges we're true, none Of them
would furnish 70 excuse for the manner
in which the men we're shot down.
There is no law permitting the killing
Of men suspected Of orime. There
seems to be no reason for making the
raid a. night aod the reports of the
affair say that the men we're shot while
attempting to escape. 1t is claimed
that Baliew resisted arrest and bad a
pistol pointed at the constables when
shot. If this be true. there is some
excuse fss the killing, Notwithstanding
the fact that the constables brought it
on by going at nighs and shooting
Moore down while be ran
Blood and anarchy, murder and
oppression are the legitimate fruits of
the Dispeusary Law aud its system OF
coost.bulary; which is in fact nothing
less than standing army Of desperate
men under the orders Of Gov. Tillmau
These men are armed to kill and can
kill in security, knowing themselves
to have nothing to fear in the way Of
legal punishment so long as their com
mauder has the pardouing prerogative.
We sincerely trust the record of the
next week will be no worse than that
of the last.

this country are convinced not lees
strongly that the particular school Of
the Episcopal Church 10 which he
belongs cannot be extended unless by
the subjugatlon Of Christianity. The
people who are engaged Mt present in
systematic efforts to stir up revival In
this city are Of that opinion. The majority
Of religious believers In New York are In
agreement with them. They think he is
propagatlng false faith subverslve of true
Christianity. In this country the Episcopal
Church lie numerically a very small body
as compared with the Christians who dis
trust It, and the particular party in that
Church OF which he is the representative
lie stiil smaller. He believes that Anglo
Catholicism is the true Christian faith The
others oppose and reject It, as contrary and
dangerous to Christianity.
Let everybody obey the conviction Of re-
llglous duty that Ia In him, and teach the
doctrine he deems essential for men: and II
also he obeys In bis own person the pre-
cepts OF Christianity as expounded by both
Protestant and Catholic. he will be better
himself and IL will be better for the whole
community. Here the Constitution gives
to every one religious liberty. and IL
protects every Church In Its efforts
to propagate it's faith. Here. too,
ls the country In which every Church
whose efforts are wisely directed will
centre its power. for this is the coun-
try which is destined to DO the dominant
centre Of civilization and OF all its activ-
tiles. secular and religious. 1t Is a free
field and an open field for the occupation
Of the Church which is most powerful to
control it: and only the one which is most
entitled to hold it will ultimately succeed
In tho effort.
Moreover, this lie no time for intestine
fighting within the camp OF the believers In
supernatural religion. The agnostic enemy
is In front and is pressing forward along
the whole line, with serene confidence OF vic
tory. Simply to prevent desertion from
their own ranks. both Catholics and Prot
estants now have their hands full. They
have neither time to spare nor ammuni-
ton to waste In firing on each other. 1t is
not the faith Of any particular Church, but
religious faith altogether. upon which the
guns OF the enemy are trained. Hence all
Churches have q common cause to defend.

The former was elected by 1900 majority.
ne Democratic candidate; the latter was
elected. for the same reason. by majority
OF 10000. Why should there be any differ
ence or distinction between the two2 There
Is no reason that we know Of
Mr.. SoHIEREN was chosen Mayor Of Brook
lyn because. apparently. the people Of that
city desired Republican Mayor. 1t seems
that they desired Republicans for other
Offices. too, for they elected Republican
Sheriff, Republican Aldermen and Super
visors, and Republican Senators and As
semblymen. So strongly were they inclined
In November that they gave majority. for
the first time in twenty years. for the Re-
publican State Ticket and for every candi-
date upon It. and thereby showed partisan
prediction for Republicans.
Now Mr.. ScHIEREN Is considered az an
eligible Republican candidate for Cover
nor: but we observe that those Republicans
who were loud In their protestations Of
"non-p artisanship" q few months ago In
Brooklyn. are speaking OF his innate and
unfilnching Republicanism. and he APP
pears to agree with them, for on Wednes-
day evening he addressed, at the Cooper
Union. the meeting Of Republicans called
by the BLISS Committee OF Thirty.
Non-partisanship In municipalities is q
Republican catch phrase for getting control
OF Democratic cities where the Republicans
are In q minority. 1t lie humbug. 1t is
fraud on the Democratic voters who agree
to It. II Is Mugwump device. but II falls
to work more often than It succeeds. When
the people OF any State elect non-par-
tisan Governor. or the people OF the coin
try non-partisan Congress. 1t will be time
enough to talk about non-partisan adj
ministratlon Of the affairs OF any city.

The speeches made within a week by the
women OF Sorosis. and by those of the PROBES
sionAl Woman's League. and By those who
spoke at the banquet OF the Vegetarian Club.
and by those who held the platform at the
female suffrage meetings. have enlarged the
big volume of evidence In favor OF feminine
orstory. Nearly every one OF the speeches of
these women has been OF high quality. and
many OF them have been wise and eloquent
while Of rare serenity. In times not far gone By.
public speakers Of the mother sex were curl
osity but now there must be many hundreds.
ifthsre be not more than athousand. of them In
the country. Indeed We Judge from our re-
ports OF the 6oTosis. the WomAn's League
and the suffrage meetings. that there are over
. hundred Of them in this New York OF ours.
Have We In the town q hundred as good
orators among the sons OF old man ADAM. the
apple eater? We should have to rake our
memory for long time to think OF nearly that
many here.
Some Of our woman orators. too. as all read
ers OF TIE Sun know. are humorous and their
humor is captivating. though It IL sure to be
less broad and bolstsTous than that Of the man
speakers.
Never was there another generation OF the
human race In which women. whole lots OF

Anarchist and NlhiIIsts.

Again a dynamite bomb has been ex-
ploded in Paris restaurant. and again
grievous. II not mortal. injuries have been
inflicted upon persons apparently unknown
TO the perpetrator OF the outrage. What
puzzles one in these enormitles is the OBJ
jeet which their authors have in view
What do they aim at The question could
be answered in regard to the assassina-
tions at one time committed by the Rus
sian Nihilists. But no answer reconcllable
with common sense is forthcoming in the
case Of the Anarchists. who OF late Ia Spain.
France. and Italy have spread devastation
In theatres. churches. and legislative
chambers. in railway stations. hotels. and
eating houses. where il was evident that
the motive was not the death OF a given in
dividual. but indiseriminate massacre.
The attempts at assassination on the part
OF the Russian Nihilists were directed
against the Car himself or against those
executive agents or police Officers who had
taken an active part in the enforcement OF
repressiye policy. Usually they were
preceded by a demand for a definite consti-
tutional reform. and were followed by an
exposition Of the grounds on which the
TeVolutionists sought TO justify their acts
Of violence. Where bystanders or persons
ether than the victim aVoWsdly aimed at
