A Communication From Or. Giddings.

Editors of the kennebce journal:
May / ask for a little space in your
columns to reply to an article in you
issue Of last Saturday in which from the
wording, the point seemed directed quit,
as much at me as the Democratic party
The utter absurdity of the claim therein
made that the pension of MIR II. Il. Jack
son was reduced on political ground,
seems to me too foolish to require denial
70 me it was wholly unknown to which
political party he belonged, and it Ger
tainIy would make no difference in my
duties as an examiner whether he was l.
Republican, Democrat CT Populist
There are mighty mean men, | think, il
all Of them, and ] am satisfied such woul'
seek to make political capital out of jus
such a case when they really care no mort
for the pensioner than they would for D
savage. There is always two sides t.
every controversy and 1t would appear to
be good judgment to temper the tone of b
charge so one might gracefully retract il
found in the wrong. The idea involved
and pretty plainly stated that some re
ioiced in ghoulish glee that the said
Jackson was cut down because he Is r
Republican is simple, silly, and | think
untrue. As | understand the law, when
a pensioner receives $72. 90 per month, il
is based upon the fact that be is not only
totally disabled but requires constant
attendant Perhaps the writer of the
article can explain how it was that Mr..
Jackson was able to ride several miles
over a rough road to Winthrop village,
take the train from there to Newbury
port, Mass, spend week and return by
the same route, and yet be unable to
appear BIZ fore al examining board for
examination. | think anyone who in
sinuates that political prejudice had any
influence in determining conclusions after
a careful, searching examination, should
hesitate to put himself ou record lest they
might be most righteously judged as one
who had no principle above the dirty ser
vice of party. claim a higher standing
and should respectfully decline to enter
into such questionable partnership with
politicians OF any school.
That my friend, DR.. Wedgewood, re-
turned Il correct report of his eXamination
of Jackson when he made it have NJ
doubt. but it does not follow that another,
though Democrat, is not equally com
netent and honest several years later
There are other features to this case that
might be touched upon.

The Great Tobacco War.
(From the New York Herald. }

The head of one of the largest ST. Louis
manufactures of plug tobacco said today
About two years ago we put on the mar
ket brand of plug tobacco and when
we figured it out, we found we had lost
Just seven cents n pound. Battle AK Plug
Tobacco, ! am told, sells for one cent per
pound less than our brand, which would
make the loss on it nine cents per pound.
Battle AK" however, is superior to the
one we put out and must cost more to
manufacture. Twenty million pounds OF
Battle AK plug tobacco were sold, on
which believe there must have been a
loss of at least ten cents pound, so on
this item alone there seems to have been
a loss of 50, 600, 900.
From the above statement of large
plug tobacco manufacturer, who evidently
knows what he is talking about, it would
seem To US that the only one who is bene-
fitting by the Tobacco War is the man who
chews - Battle Ak, for he is certainly
getting the full worth of his money every
time he buys it.

Exposure TO the Value OF Manures.

Prof. Frear of the Pennsylvania station
has given some figures and drawn some
conclusions of interest to those who feel
composed when rejecting upon the fact
chat the manure of the herd is under
shelter
The manure was kept in compact heaps
IN an open dished yard covered with
)uddled clay, and in a shed open on one
,ide and wholly above ground, The
heaps We're compacted by allowing the
,attle to run on them an hour or two each
lay, and uniformity was secured by allow
ing few pigs to work them over
Porf, Frear summarizes the trial as
follows:
In summer the greatest loss Of organic
matter occurred in the exposed heap; in
the winter, though the duplicate analyses
iffer widely in result, the reverse seems
rue
Judging by the residual amounts of
potash, the openyard manure suffered
,ome loss by teaching.
THE results, SO far as nitrogen is con
.crncd, agree with those for organic
natter Is is therefore evident that
luder these conditions of exposure, al
hough We have not the data from which
50 compute the absolute loss of valuable
Ingredients, the manure lost relatively
most from ovcrheating the covered
he'd in the winter, and when exposed to
The sun in summer
The moral of this, us Of other trials, is
that manure must not be allowed to
undergo rapid fermentation

most striking of all the moths of the old
world as its prime favorite. But since the
introduction of the potato this plant seems
to be its chief food. In Meehan's Monthly
attention is called to an illustration from
a German publication, showing in an in
structive manner the various stages of the
creature, and which is here reproduced. In
the lower right hand corner is seen the
