STEWART N KENTUCKY

Senator Stewart, the millionaire silver mine owner of Nevada, is still in Kentucky making speeches for free silver and Joe Blackburn. His presence in that State is proving a boomerang to the cause he repre- sents. The Kentuckians naturally feel tbat they are quite able to take care of their own affairs without in- interference on the part of Western mine owners who have a direct in terest fn the result and whose pub lie views are wholly influenced by selfish interest. And then Stewart is not only free silverite, but | Populite, and the Democrats of the Blue Grass State rightly think that Populite is not very good teacher or preacher of Democratic doctrine. Besides, Stewart is roundly denoune- ing Carlisle for what he is pleased to call Carlisles inconsistency, and Carlisle has long been the idol of Kentucky Democracy. Mir Stew arts denunciation of Mir. CarGsles record has led to an investigation and expose of Senator Stewards record before he became interested in silver mine-owning, from which it seems that the Senator from Nev- ada few years ago was the avowed champion of the single gold stand ard, This was in 1874 and before Senator Stewart invested his millions in silver mines. In Febru- ary of that year he spoke in the Unitd State Senate as follows:
 q want the standard gold and no paper money not redeemable in gold; no paper money the value of which is not ascertained; no paper money that will organize gold board to speculate in it. "
 h those days Senator Stewart persisted as much in making himself nuisancein the advocacy of gold monometallism as he is doing now in the advocacy of silver monomet- allism, for few days later he further elaborated his opinion as follows,
 aBy this process we shall come to a specie basis. and when the la- boring man receives a dollar 1t will have the purchasing power of dol lar, and he will not be called upon to do what is impossible for him or the producing classes to do, figure on the exchanges, figure upor the fiuctua- tions, figure upon the gambling in New York; but he will know what his money is worth. Gold is the universal standard of the world Everybody knows what gold dol lar is worth. '
 The Kentuckians quite correctly think that if the gold standard was q good thing in 1874 before Stewart became nterested in silver mines, and when the annual productions Of silver were much less than now, it ought to be a good thing in 1895 when silver production has been multiplied 200 per cent. even though Stewart has become a silver mine owner and changed his opinions in consequence.
 The Kentuckians belong to that class of Democrats who are opposed to class legislation of every descrip- tion, and they are not yet in favor of turning this Government over to the Silver Kings of the West to be worked for all it is worth And it will require some one more disinter- ested and of greater ability than Stewart to convince them that free silver, under existing conditions, is the correct thing. Kentucky is for Carlisle and sound money.

THE SUCCESSFUL LAWN PARTY.

One thousand attended the lawn party, June G. About SAG was realized, which will be applied on expense of piping. It is hoped that this amount with the gra- tuitous work promised by residents will be sufficient to bring the water to the spot which shall be selected for the fountain. All were as much delighted as surprised by the thoughtful offer of Mrs Jennie Nash of Bridgeport to give the fountain as memorial of her father Charles Curtiss, former respected resi- dent, whose remains repose in the Center cemetery. Great credit IS due Paul Rehnberg, who originated and so effec' rually carried to successful completion this enterprise, even though some,s il they did not oppose. did not cooperate Next Wednesday evening the young people will have an assembly on the Green for which the dancing pavilion

THE HORN FLY PEST.

That most recent pest, the horn fly, is again with us or our cattle. On some of our hot days oxen are nearly crazy. It Is found in nearly all parts of the United States and Canada. This insect confines
 it's attacks to horned cattle and not only worries them during the day but keeps it up nights in the barn or pasture. They are generally on the fore legs and shoul- ders or any place out of the reach of the head or tail. While the lies are feeding they work through the hair to the skin. the bite produces great irritation and sores are frequently formed where the animals rub themselves against trees or other objects. In regions badly infected the animals grow poor and cows yield from one third to one half less milk. The female deposits her eggs singly on fresh COW manure. They hatch in Fl hours. The maggots burrow into the dung and feed until they reach their full growth in week. They then descend to the ground where they change to the pupal stage. In week they emerge as flies, but the last brood Of the season passes the win ter under ground in this stage. There are from six to eight generations each year, the flies of the first brood appear ing in the spring and the succeeding gen. erations following each other throughout the summer. Prof Riley says almost any greasy substance will keep the flies away for several days. Experiments have shown that train oil with a little sulphur or carbolic acid added will keep them away for five or six days. The carbolic acid will have a tendency to heal the bites and sores. Every farm has on hand aud can use any coarse grease suitable for making soap to which should be added a little tar and applied with a rag or brush will provide cheap and as efficient remedy as can be needed, at the same time afford great relief to the poor animals.
