Mr.. Crisp's charge that the pres
ident is not in accord with his party
on the silver question, and that he
(the ex-speaker) intends to adhere
to the silver cause, must have the
effect of strengthening the silver
ties. Mr.. Crisp is stripped for the
fight. He says that the tariff ques-
ton is settled; and he insists that
the next campaigne for the presi-
dency must be fought clearly and
openly on the single issue of the
reconciliation of silver. What he
means by the reconciliation of
silver is free coinage at a ratio of
16 to l. Mr.. Crisp speaks for the
people of Georgia, we doubt not.

THE FARM.

Among the garden crops that
shoot up quickly and mature in a
comparatively short time are lettuce
crosses, bunch onions, small table
beets, perhaps snap beans and peas,
and especially radishes. These
quick maturing can often be wedg-
ed in between the rows of later
crops that require more space, but
start up slowly at first and take
longer time for growth. A cores
pondent of Farm and Fireside in
variably makes his first sowing of
radishes and crosses between the
rows of the early cabbages and
caulifower, and later on between
pepper or egg plants, late cabbage,
&c. No separate space is devoted
to the radish crop in his garden,
Radishes are simply used as a fill
ing.
In the cucumber, melon and
squash patches much valuable space
is usually left idle. The space can
be utilized for an early crop of
smooth peas, which come off in
June, or early potatoes, which come
off in July, or perhaps early cab
bage, lettuce, spinach, table beets,
snap beans, &c. The cucumber,
melon or squase plants, especially
if started in strawberry baskets or
IN inverted sods, can be planted in
the rows devoted to them right be-
tween the early crops still standing,
where they will be all the more Sc
cure from insect attacks. Horserad-
ish sets may be planted between the
rows or early cabbages and cauli-
flower, kept down by ordinary
good cultivation until cabbages are
harvested, and then allowed to
grow.
!, | Where swine are kept in large mum
f bers they are very likely to be con
fined in very close quarters, with
no regard for cleanliness and pure
air. One who visited distillary
where a great lot of hogs were
kept to be fattened upon the waste
products gives a description sug
gestive of the "blaCk hole of Cal
cutta." The fetid atmosphere
seemed to torture the swine, anc
the visitor would have tainted but
Z for speedy exit. This was an ex
. ceptional condition, but in all cases
, where filth is prevalent and the all
infected there must be more or less
taint to the meat, even if disease
: does not appear. But hogs so de
e veloped are very liable to be in
: tested with some dangerous dis
: ease and parasites, and those who
eat them as food do so with peri
to health. The swine should b,
1 fed as pure food as other animals
g and all their conditions recognize
g sanitary laws.

When Alexander A. Stephens
was representing Georgia in Con-
gress after the war, the silver
question was up for discussion.
Then, as now, the opponents OF
free coinage offered no remedy for
evils under which the people were
suffering. Then, as now, they de-
clared that the country would be
flooded with cheap silver. Mr.
Stephens, in his place, declared in
behalf of the people that he would
welcome such deluge. "Let il
come!" he cried "and the more OF
it the better!''

CLEvELANDISM VS.. DEM0C-
RACY.

The democratic party in national
convention assembled placed this
ringing declaration in the platform
of 1892:
The nomination of q president, as
in the recent republican convention,
by delegations composed largly OF
his appointees, holding office at his
pleasure, is scandalous satire upon
free popular institutions and
startling illustration of the methods
by which president may crafty
his ambition. We denounce a
policy under which the federal of
flee holders usurp control of party
conventions in the states, and we
pledge the democratic party to re-
form these and all other abuses
which threaten individual liberty
and local selfgovernment.
In the face of this clear-cut and
unmistakable declaration, the peo-
pie now see movement, backed
up by the administration and all
the forces it is able to control, to
compel the democratic voters OF
the county to accept and swallow
financial doctrines which the mas
ses of the Democracy have oppos-
ed from the time of jefferson down
TO the present hour.
The edict has gone forth from
the self-opinionated head of affairs
at Washington, that all those IN
public service whose tenure OF OF
fee depend upon the nod and beck
of time self-crowned King of the
gold-bugs are to be marshaled In
"blocks of FIVE" ON the side OF the
ShyloCks and against the people.
Here is the spectacle of a Dem
ocratic president seeking to array
those appointed to Office against
the people who elected him. Ii
has been demonstrated that Cleve-
land while true to Tariff Reform,
has likewise been true only to those
well defined doctrines of the Dem
ocracy which meet his approval
Not the solemn declaration of the
National Democracy made in con
yention is it which now meets re-
spect at Washington, but the pc
culiar views of Cleveland are to be
promulgated as the voice of De
mocray. A Democratic president
has invited new guests to sit at the
banquet board quests whose lnvi
tations have been won by proclaim
ing those financial dogmas borrow
ed from the long-standing enemies
of Democracy.
The voice of popular indignation
is now being raised against Shy
iockism throughout our land from
sea to sea. History will repeal
itself. When those in high places
stray from the common people, tht
fall from high places is inevitable
Grover Cleveland will not g
down in history as a lone example
He merely initiates. Mrs Parting
ton was the first of the school wher
she sought to sweep back the waves
of the ocean. "The mill of the
Gods grind slowly but they grine
exceedingly fine" The voice o
the people will triumph.

INTENTION TO GOVERN


SPRINGFIELD. Ills, Nov 3.-Thc SUI
prcme court decision in the case of Parker
VS. Orr has an important bearing on the
legality of ballots cast under the Aus
tralian system At the November election
in 1894, r.. w. Orr was elected county
superintendent of schools of Christian
county and IA contest was made by Nina
s. White, his Republican opponent, claim
ing that certain ballots were rejected
which would have given her plurality of
votes cast. The recount Of the vote and
addition of the rejected ballots to the vote
cast for each candidate gave Miss White
1923 and Orr :20I votes
The court finds Orr to have been duly
elected. The principal point passed upon
is the legality of the disputed ballots, and
the supreme court holds that the intention
of the voter must control. 1t is not abso-
lutely requisite that the voter make a per-
feet "X" in the center of the circle or in
the square opposite the candidates name,
but when mark is made clearly indi-
eating the voters intention to vote it is to
be counted for the candidates Of the party

Potatoes for Stock.

| The results obtained from experiments
made in feeding potatoes by Prof. W. A.
Henry, director of the Wisconsin expert
ment station, will be of interest to some
farmers who live so far from market as
to be in doubt whether to feed their po-
tatoes to stock or give them away. Prof
| Henry says he fed six lots of ten months
old pigs for AZ days as follows: Lots l
and V, corn meal wet with water; Lots
| ii and VI, potatoes and corn meal in the
proportion of 8 to l !; Lot II, potatoes and
shorts in the proportion of to l. and
Lot ", potatoes and corn meal in the
proportion Of 2 to l. The results showed
| that 7S9 pounds of potatoes took the place
of and thus saved 17S pounds of corn
meal, or one pound of cornmeal was
found equivalent to about p pounds of
potatoes. The shorts did to give quite as
good results with potatoes as did the corn
meal.
If we take the ratio of 4 to 1 as indicat
ing the true value of potatoes compared
with grain feed, we find that If corn is
worth 40 cents a bushel potatoes will be
worth about IL cents a bushel to feed to
stock with corn at 80 cents potatoes will
be worth cents bushel with corn at
so cents, potatoes will be worth 1875 cents
to feed, etc. These prices may scent
rather low to many, but we believe that
under the existing conditions the figures
given will show that in many districts
potatoes may be feed to stock with profit.
With the market price of potatoes at 10 or
Is cents and several miles to haul them,
less money will be realized by selling. the
crop than may be secured by feeding to
stock and selling cattle, sheep, hogs, milk
and butter. The potatoes will save the
grain and thus lower the cash outlay
necessary for concentrated feeds for farm
animals.
Potatoes should be fed sliced, chopped
or broken to ali farm animals except hogs
to these they had better be cooked. Tho
writer found that tho hogs ate cooked
potatoes best when there was least water
mixed with them. Mich COWS may be
fed up to 25 pounds Of potatoes per day
per head, or less than half a bushel; if
more is fed the flavor of the milk and
butter is liable to be affected Dry forage
should always be fed along with them.
The value of potatoes for steer and
sheep feeding Is shown by the French
scientist Girard's work. He concludes
from his experiments that "thc potato
when healthy Gree from rot) and well
developed, must be regarded as a fodder
yielding remarkable results In respect to
the production Of meat
Potatoes may be fed in moderate
quantities to horses, either sliced or
chopped; they should not form a laroe
portion Of the daily ration, not exceeding
10 or II pounds per bead daily, and less
should he fed to heavy work horses or
young animals. Potatoes may be fed in
addition to dry forage, so as to furnish a
variety and to give succuleDce to the
ration.
