The anarchical utterances heard
on every democratic stump during the
last presidential campaign are bearing
their legitimate fruit in the acts of
lawlessness and riot now prevalent in
so many different states.-N. Y. Re-

= The democratic party has reached
point where it has no further regard
for decency. The time for reputation
of bargains, infamous or otherwise, has

9The secret of prosperity is plenty
of work at good wages. That was
what caused the unprecedented mate

ascendency of the republican party,
and any experiment of a contrary kind

misfortune no matter how cheap it may

OThe reductions Of duties in the
agricultural schedule are of serious
import not only to farmers but to farm
labOrers. They mean increased i'm

farms and lower prices for American
farm products, lower wages for Ameri-
can farm laborers and lower profits for
American farmers. Journal.
UThe party in power charges the
national deficit upon past mismanage-

the impending deficit of $500, 900 in
Texas. where the republicans are a
sort of fourth dimension? Nothing but
a positive genius for disagreement

we heartily pray thee to send thy

TO be thy tenants, may not rack or stretch
out the rents Of their houses or lands. nor
yet take unreasonable fines or moneys
after the manner of covetous world

GEORGIA PEACHES.
This State Will Soon Rival Delaware
as a Peach Producer.
From the Washington Star.

rom In6 w dSnlnStOn Star,
Georgia is going to give Delaware
close race oneof these days for supremacy
as the peach-growing state" said George
Mcfarland of Savannah at the Ebbitt
yesterday. IF the express companies
could only be brought down from their
high horses sufficiently to deal fairly with
the growers of early fruit in the south,
and reasonable rates were charged for
shipping 1T TO northern markets, the in
crease in this branch of agriculture would
be immediate and enormous, but in spite
of such drawbacks it is already going
ahead SO rapidly as to be the subject of
remark. In Berrlen county many farm
ers are changing their pursuits into peach
growing, and thousands of trees will be
set out this coming winter. Just now it
is the budding season and the opera
ton is quite Interesting. In the winter
the peach growers plant quantities of
peach stones in drills about six inches
wide and three feet apart. They sprout
readily, and in August have reached a
hight OF twenty to thirty inches The
nurseryman then goes to an older tree of
the variety he wishes to grow and clips a
bud from it. After removing all the hard
wood and leaving the bark remaining, he
goes to the sprouts, and selecting one
which is hOurlShlng he splits it's bark
near the ground and inserts the bud
against the juicy sap and binds it on with
soft Irvine or grass. When the bud has
taken sufficient growth the sprout is cut
of just above it, and next winter these
little trees are Jransplanted to the or
chard. 1t has been sufficiently proven
that the soil and climate of Georgia COM
bine to produce the finest peaches in the
world, both in size, tirmness of flesh and

A HOUSE OF HORRORS.
The SulIen Rancher and His Private
Graveyard.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
San Diego, Cal, Aug. 25.-A Pennsyl-
vanian. aged but IS, unmarried, is the
narrator of experiences which IN two
weeks MADE lean and haggard thing of
him who was before a strong and hearty
man. He went to work for a rancher on
an isolated place near Campo. The
rancher and his wife called at his board
ing place on Fifth street., and drove him
sixty miles TO the ranch. In few mo-
ments of conversation alone the woman
warned the head man that he would have
TO take the consequences and stand up
for his rights. as her husband was hard
man to work for. The rancher. half
breed, seemed sullen and was singularly
reticent on the long ride.
The house was a perfect arsenal, !"
runs the hired mans story, all kinds of
firearms being conspicuous in every room
that l was permitted to enter. and, as if
to make the place more formidable there
were six or eight dogs lounging about
There were no visitors to the place that
know of, and so far as l could observe
none were wanted. The man seemed
anxious TO be alone with the woman in
the house, and it did not take me long to
suspect that something was wrong about
the place.
The other day, when l was working
IN field at some little distance from the
house, l saw an Indian coming toward
me through the brush. l recognized him
as neigh boring rancher whom l had seen
the previous day working on bis place.
and whom ! now discovered spoke good
English.
AS he approached I saw that he was
anxious to avoid being seen from my en-
ployer's house. paid little attention To
1t at the time, however. The Indian came
nearer and asked if I was working for
Mr.. -. naming the rancher. When
answered in the affirmative, he said
glanclng toward a pile of brush some dis
lance from where he stood My friend,
L advise you to leave here. If you remain
you may follow those poor men over
there, and he pointed toward the brush
You will find the bones under those
bushes yonder, and Just beyond you will
see three graves. The men whose bones
lie there were employed on this ranch,
and they have been killed. Look at the
charred bones to satisfy yourself, and
then leave here
Il left my work and went to the spot
indicated. Sure enough, there lay a
haman skull and other bones, and l
plainly made out enough to satisfy myself
that man had been murdered The
bones were charred and black, and an at
tempt had clearly been made to remove
all evidence of the crime by burning the
remains. a short distance beyond were
three mounds, evidently graves
AS soon after dark as possible I got
my valise from my room, and, not waiting
to see about the wages due, managed TO
slip away without attracting the atten-
tion of either the man or woman or the
dogs.
AT every place stopped l asked about
the rancher for whom | had been work
ing. The replies in every instance indi-
Gated that the character of the man was
known TO be very bad. l continued on
toward San Diego and arrived completely
exhausted. The soles of my shoes were
completely worn out by the sixty mile
walk"

GOVERNMENT RAILWAYS.

Railway Review.
State ownership is no panacea for rail
way ills. In countries where there is
state ownership, traders have their
grievances. The latest case In point is
Sweden; there the iron masters and
furnace owners are up in arms against
the exhorbitant rates charged by the
Swedish State railway for the carriage
OF Gronl ore, coal and charcoal us well
as for Swedish pig iron and manufactured
iron and steel. la support Of the plea,
petition has been presented TO the
king, In which the manufacturers urge
that the Swedish iron industry has for
many years past been In a depressed
condition, and that the diminution 10
profits has become more marked year by
year. The petitioners have come TO the
conclusion that the causes of the de-
precision are mainly to be found in the
increased and increasing production and
improved methods Of the iron inanuf1c-
turing countries. especially England and
America. The petition bears the names
OF eighty niue owners and Iron mann
facturers, and asks for the sweeping
reduction Of 80 per cent ON the majority
Of the articles enumerated. They con
tend that II the necessary diminution
In the cost of the production is TO be
effected at all, It must be under the
heading Of railway freights, as all The
other expenses are as low az they can
be. and i reduction Of the wages Of the
,vorkmen is entirely oul Of the question
at the present time. The British consul
NJ Stockholm thinks it likely that the pc
tjtlon may result In the reduction Of the
rates. This would probably be followed
hy diminution Of the export prices,
which might result in larger quantities
Of Swedish pig iron finding their way 10
the English and continental markeis.
