A GOOD BUSINESS.

We nave JUST received u iOt ~
adverrlsing matter from the
Stark Bros. Nursery. Louisiana,
Mo, aud \ careful examination
OF them has taught US many
things. We have always been
il favor of the continued setting
Out of orchards, and If we had
the land would lose no time our
selves to set out q thousand acres.
There 10 no business which is
more lucrative and at the same
time more pleasing than that of
the fruit grower, and we could
quote any number Of figures to
prove the first part OF this asser.
ton. Nor do we believe that
any one will doubt but that 1t is
3 pleasant calling.
Among the advertising matter
we found some excellent half

valuable advice on the plan ting
and cultivation OF orchards and

Now we firmly believe that
with due care in regard to the
location of an orchard, fully as
good results may be- obtained
right here on the sides and top
of old Cumberland. The trouble
has been too little care ia the
planting and management Of or.
chsrds. To raise fruit one naust
work just as hard as though he
were raising corn or wheat, and
exercise his InteIlI gence to dis
cover new and good methods OF
care taking. And it must not
relax when the fruit is ready for
market, for then, q little extra
care in the packing aud shipping
Of the fruit means many extra
dollars extra profit.

There is TO more sense In a1trlOu'
ting the enhanced price of products
to republican administration, than
in attributing the low price OF pro-
ducts to the democratic administra
ton a year or two ago, yet some re
publican papers have rendered
themselves ridiculous by doing
so. The free silver papers
attribu ted the low prices to the
demonstration Of silver an d the
high prices to supply and demand.
They were a little nearer the cor
rect doctrine but in no way render
e / themselves less ridiculous than
their republican neighbOrs. Why
not be honest with your readers and
tell them the truth? Party supremacy
gained by deceiving the people Will
not last. 1t has long since been
d 'monstrated that you cannot de
ceiye all the people all the time.

THE ELECTION.

The election will take place on
next Tuesday. For State Offices,
there are five tickets in the field:
the Democratic, the Republican, the
Populist, this ticket it is thought
has no candidate for Attorney
General: the ProhibltiOnist, and the
Socialist.
For the House of Delegates from
Shenandoah county there are only
two names on the ticket, those of
Jos. NJ. Bauserman, the Democratic
nominee, and J. w. Santmiers, the
republican nominee. If parties
desire to vote for other parties. 1t
will be necessary to write the
names on the ticket As to the
probabilities, we freely confess that
we are not posted, and can only say
that the candidate that receives the
greater number Of votes will be
elected. In our next Issue we will
give oar readers full information as
to the result.

BLIZZARD GRIPS DENVER.

Denver, Col. Oct. 26'-This city
ism the grasp Of one Of the worst
Billiards ever known here. The
storm began last night with blind.
log fall of snow, accompanied by a
high wind, and it continued today
with increased fury.
Aside from the tremendous in
convenience caused to the public
and to private interests. the storm
has wrought damage in Denver and
its suburbs that is conservatively
estimated to be more than 800, =
900.
The city Is in darks 6n
as the mayor compelled the ele6wic
light company to cut offIts circuits
on account of their dangerous con.
ditiOn.
A message from Colorado Springs
states that the snow and sleet were
blowing so furiOusly there all day
that it was impossible to see across
the street. Leadyille had a slight
snowfall last night, but none today.
The storm came 50 suddenly that
raDchmen did not have an oppor-
tunity to shelter their stock, but
the fall in temperature is not con
sidered great enough to endanger
the lives of cattle.
Cripple Greek, Col, Oct. 90
Not in years has there been such
blizzard here as that which prevails
now. High winds are drifting the
snow. Traffic on the railroads is
suspended and telephone wires are
down. Canyons are chOked with
snow, and it is impossible to see
hundred feet ahead on account Of
the binding storm. Mining opera.

weather is very cold, and it is fear
ed there will be great suffering

Washington, d. .. Oct. Do
Senator Bacon, OF GA., is the only

TRAIN IN A RIVER.
A New York Central Express
Takes A Fearful Plunge With
Many Sleeping Passengers.
TWENTY EIGHT KILLED.

TWENTY EIGHT KILLED.
The most awful accident tnat
has happened In the history Of the
New York Central X ulroad took
place yesterday morning. just be-
fore day light, between GarrisOns
and Highlands. on the east shore
of the Hudson river, near West
Point. The official statement oil
The railroad shows at least Dinetee1
persons we're Killel aud probably
as many were injured. The wreck
ed train, the Buffalo and New
York special, was RAINING along a
Level aud straight stretch OF
track when. without an lnstanps
warning. and for some reason so
utterly inexplicable IS to almost
warrant a suspiclon that the road
embanKment was blown, up. the
the solid bank gave way, cIrrying
with 1t a wall of stone more. than
yard thick, and the engine and
seven of the carsa OF the heavy
tram went into the Hudson river.
1t all happened In a moment. la
less than it takes to tell 1t the
water was rushing into the smash
ed Cars aud the people most OF
them awakened from sleep In
their berths; panic stricken aud
shrieking for help, we're rushing
hitber and thither trying to escape
from what seemed certain death
There were some among the panic
stricken ones who q Iickly recover
ed their presence of mind, and it
is due to them that the loss OF life
was not triple what 1t was. With
axes and the other tools that were
in the cars they smashed the win
dows and cut their way out. Tue
scene for half an hour after the
wreck was almost Understandable.
Half of those persons who wer'
rescued were still pincic stricken
when they were landed safely on
shore aud some Of them were al
most erased by the fright they had
received,
An official statement of the com
pauy, made by Grneral Superin'
tendent Van E,teu sAys;
Tue accident was caused to the
best of our belief, by the embanK &.
ment slipping into the river under
the weight OF the engine. Why
this embankment, which has stood
for forty years OF more, should
give out at this particular time Is
unaccountable. Trains in both di
rections had passed ever il within
fifteen minutes of the time the
accident occurred, one northbound
within thirty minutes. There we're
