Misery and Torture.

Father Ignatius is calling attention
to the miserable lack of preaching abil
ity among the clergy of the English
church. His criticisms are fully justi'
fed. even when he declares:
''It is high time that something wer'
done to prevent the grievous torture
inflicted every Sunday upon so large q
number Of the church going population.
Why should people who are utterly un-
able to preach be compelled to try to dc
so Sunday after Sunday for the whole
course of their lives? They are misery
to themselves and torture to their fel
low creatures, and they cause many per
sons to dread the Sabbath and the house

A Kansas Pest.

Antelope Herald: A gentleman just

that that section of country was swept
by myriads of grasshoppers the first oil
the week, they having come from the
south and sweeping everything before
them. They were almost an inch
thick On the ground and completely
ruined the grain crops, garden truck
and fruit on the ranches of Alex
Friend, Jim Hamilton, Geo. Mccoy
and others. They were the regular
old-fashloned Kansas grasshoppers,
and were headed In northerly direc-
ton. 1t Is very hard to tell what II

as rapidly as they did Saturday and
Sunday. They have no doubt taken
possession Of G. 8. McCorkle's ranch

that the successful education OF them

Some Hop Notes.

In and about Barlow station, IN
Clackamas county, hops are forming
very fast, and the growers are prepar.
ing for picking, which will commence
about the first of next month. There
are but few lice reported in this section.
Shipments from Puyallup station,
Wash, have already commenced, ac-
cording to the Commerce. An active
campaign against hop lice began last
week, and Is being kept up with great
vigor. Many Of the growers begin
spraying at a. M, and keep at 1t un-
p. M. Dealers say that there is no
local market, that no contracts are be-
ing made aud that values are not overs
cents.
From PuJ allup, Wash, back to the
south boundary of Pierce county the
yards are very uneven. The late cold
spring has had its effect even upon the
higher yards, while the vines in the
low-lying lands that haye been covered
by the back waters of the floods look
spindling, and even their tops will not
yield but very light picking, for they
are practically armless. This 10 another
top-crop year, as the vines have practi
cally thrOWn out no lower arms. Farm
ers are now thoroughly conversant
with the most approved methods of
'piug with the lice, and they are using
their knowledge diligently.
K. Meeker, in discussing the mop
picking problem, says: "There is time
yet to entirely change the condition of
the market and hops up to paying
price. From the present. outlook l
think we ought not to pay more than
from 65 TO 75 cents box for Is bushel
boxes. We have encouraged those W ho
have applied to US for work to expect
that price il hops would hold near the
I3 cent line here, and would yet favor
that, even If we could get but l3 cents,
but if the market drops to zero, as some
anticipate, and 1t becomes a question as
to whether 1t Is better to pick or not,
then we will need to be free to make a
bargain for the picking which would
be equitable. I can see how, If we can.
not actually afford to pay more than e5
cents per l8 bushel boxes, and can af-
ford that, that 1t would be better for
pickors and growers and the state at
large to pay that rather than leave the
hops on the poles. We hope there will
not be such contingency, but never
theless do not want to tie ourselves mp
rigidly to price we cannot afford to
pay. If we can become assured that
hops will move at l5 cents per pound
then 1 would say pay one dollar per lS
bushel boxes, as heretofore. There is
this to be said on the question, that 65
cents per Is bushel boxes pickers' earn
ings will buy as much these times as 81
per Is bushel box would year or two
ago, and that at these prices the decline
IN wages is no more than other farm
wages. Undeniably there ought to be
come latitude allowed for different
conditions. In yards with heavy folia-
age or with light yield, involving fro-
quent changes of poles, or with imma-
ture hops, growers will doubtless need
to pay more than In yards with heavy
yields, light foliage aud thoroughly
ripened hops"

laid his plans and then openly proclaimed
them. He was a bold fighter, never skulk-
ing behind breast works, but meeting his
enemy upon the open field, giving him
square stand up fght', without resort to
flank movements or strategy.
Upon the slavery question, Davis was a
fanatic and Douglas politician. The
former believed in African slavey. as lit ex-
listed in this country before the war, the
chief corner stone of the republic, the sub
stratum upon which rested the republican
institutions of the country. the latter be-
lieved in allowing the people of a territory
to vote slavery up, or vote it down., as
they should choose when applying for adj
mission as a state.
In their attempt to enforce their peculiar
views upon this question upon the Ameri-
can people, Davis was a tyrant and Doug
las demagogue. Ths former, ultimatum
was legalized slavery on every foot of terri
tory in the Union, or war and rebellion
against the government; while with the
latter it was popular sovereignty, slavery
or no slavery, through the legislation of
American politics. Both theories were
wrong, both political heresies, and both for
ever exploded by the war. Constitutional
slavery or slavery established by the popu-
lar view, has no longer place in the for
UNI of American politics.
szBefore the war, Davis had a great rrepu-
tation as soldier, having commanded
regiment i'll the Mexican War, but his con-
tinual laundering in his military operations
as President of the Confederacy, destroyed
ii all. Douglas never aspired to mill
tary leadershi pyet he had the ele-
ments of character, which If proper
~ trained and cultivated would have
qualified him for an important mill
tary command which no doubt he would
have had, had he not died so zearly in the
history of the war.
The closing up of the lives of these two
men shows a divergence as wide as the
poles. Davis, perhaps more than any other
man inaugurated the rebellion. His treason
was of the most damning kind and his rec
ord one of the blacklist and most infamous
in history.
Douglas when be saw the storm coming,
that the issue rails ed, was country or no
country, cut loose from all party ties, and
appealed to his old party friends to rally
under the old flag and save the union.
His was a potent voice, and his great inf1u-
ence was never more clearly seen than in
the rallying of the wa- Democrats in every
direction, in defence of the old flag.
Davis sounded the tocsin of war, and de-
vastated the whole South and much of the
North in his reasonable war to destroy
his country. Douglas rallied his party
friends to the great contest, and then with
the Old Flag for his funeral shround, early
in the fight, at the behest of his God,
passed away beyond the rude alarms and
terrors of the greatest conflict of the ages.
The memory of Davis will go down to
posteTity covered with infamy and redo
lent with the fumes of the traitors hell,
while the memory of Douglas as it goes
back to his dying efforts to save his coun-
try, upon one of the brightest pages of
American history will forever shine as long
as we have flag or a country.
