soiD and immersing the roots there,
in. Thus treated, if the ground is
sufficiently moist, the plants will
grow off readily without water. But
if late in the season and especially if
the weather be warm, it will be better
to water the plants after they have
been set, in addition to the applica-
ton of clay.
Warm Beds.-As every person
knows, or should know, how to con-
struct warm bed l will not give di-
rections. The potatoes should be
placed on the bed about four inches
apart, this space intervening between
the sides and ends. The potatoes
should be covered about ~ inches
deep (they are frequently covered too
deep. When the vines run about three
to four feet cut them off, leaving one
or two leaves on the stub. Cut the
vines, each piece containing three
leaves, and set out as you would
sprouts drawn in the usual way, two
of the leaves being buried and one left
above ground. The quantity and quail
ity of potatoes can thus be largely
improved. Consequently no sprouts
should be set, except limited guam
tity for early use.
If not ready to set out, the tops of
the vines may be cut off and let stand
thus until a succor starts out above
each leaf. When these succors are
about one inch long the vines should
be cut off, as aforesaid, and cut into
pieces of one, instead of three leaves.
These cuttings may be properly
placed in moist earth near a branch
and covered to exclude the sun. In a
few days roots will start out, when
they will be in excellent condition for
transplanting.
am not prepared to state definitely
which is the better plan, to cut into
lengths of one or three leaves, but be-
lieve that one will be found prefera-
BILE. In this case, the potatoes will
grow near the surface where they can
receive the benefit of the heat and air
to a greater extent. Either plan will
doubtless prove satisfactory. The
second crop of vines should be drawn
from the potatoes and after cutting
the vines, the roots may be set in the
usual way. The bed may then be tax
en- up and the manure applied to
other purposes. Potatoes by this plan
will set from three to six times the
usual quantity of ground.
A serious objection to hot beds is
that when the plants are transferred
to cold ground they become stunted
and as result grow off slowly. But
if we let the vines remain, as afore-
said, the heat of the bed will, before
the plants are removed, run down to
a sufficient extent to greatly lessen, il
not wholly remove, said objection.
At the last working do not cover
the vines. Sprouts should never be
set deeper than they grow on the bed
If the sprouts are overgrown cut of
the tops, leaving two leaves on the
stubs.

AMONG THE EDITORS.
Mr.. MENAGER's RIGHT.

Huntington Advertiser.
The Wheeling Intelligencer has gone
into a series of fits on account Of Jim
Menager having been chosen secretary
of the provisional committee of the
National Silver Republicans, recently
in session at Chicago. 1t wants to
know when was Menager chosen as a
delegate to represent the Silver Re-
publicans of West Virginia, and what
right he had to take upon himself
such grave responsibilities.
The Advertiser does not deem it nee
essary to go into an extensive argu-
ment TO show that Mr. Menager had
the right to represent West Virginia
1t the Chicago gathering of the Silver
Republicans. He advocated the cause
long before it was made an issue; and
when his party went over body and
soul to the dictates of Wall street,
monCpolies and trusts, jim Menager
na0 the mdnHOOu anu noldl COui oS0
to cut loose and declare his allegiance
to the party of Bryan, and that. too,
when the Intelligencer had tcrned
traitor to the cause of the plain people,
and has since been awarded for its
perlidy with a ten thousand dollar job
under Mckinley. Oh, no; Jim Mena-
ger is not one of the pirates who are
preying upon the business of the coun-
try. He is all right and the Intelligen-
Ger is all wrong.

THEIR LAST CHANCE.

Fairmont Index.
There seems to be bitter struggle
between the Republicans everywhere
in this State over every Office. They
act as if this was the last chance. 1t
is now or never with them, and they
have no patience with any opposition.
The boys properly size up the signs of
the times. 1t will be long time be-
fore the Republican party is called
upon to distribute patronage again in
this State or nation.

HANEN'S BAD BREAK.

Monroe Waterman.
Speaker Hanen, of the West Vir-
ginia House of Delegates, was frank
enough to state publicly in Charleston
recently that the cigarette tax was re-
pealed pursuant to a bargain with the
Tobacco Trust, whereby the trust had
paid a large sum to the Republican
Campaign Committee to be used to
carry West Virginia for Mckinley last
year. BY virtue of this pleasant ar
rangement, the trust now profits by
the free sale of the deadly cigarettes
while the Republican politicians enjoy
the snug possession of the Offices. So
it seems there is still honor among
thieves.

A PARsnMoNIoUS COUNTY COURT.
Morgan Messenger.

Morgan Messenger
The County Court has decided to
pay the munificent (???) sum of 500
for the county printing, which includes
all work required by the two clerks
and the sheriff. We would appreciate
it if our newspaper brethren in other
counties will tell us what their courts
pay for similar work. The financial
statement alone in this county, at even
less than legal rates, would amount to
much more than our honorable court
wants to pay for the job work and all.
We do not believe in extortionate
prices, but do believe in fair, honest,
living compensation, and we hope the
court will look at this matter in the
right light.

tics will have greater share in the
selection of the faculty under the pres
ent administration than its predeces-
sors. The past year had a greater en-
rollment than ever in its history, be-
ing over five hundred to the credit of
the faculty. We trust the regret of
fostering jealousies among themselves
is unfounded.

The words were hardly out of his
mouth when the cavalier to whom
they were addressed threw up his arms
with scream, and falling forward
from his horse, began to beat at the
earth cOnyulsively with his hands,
whilst he gasped out his life. As the
death glaze was covering his eyes, his
empty saddle was filled with figure
that rose up like a spirit through the
dim smoke. and Belin's even voice
Nwas heard.
Poor Garabay! But my horse was
shot under me an hour ago, and this

de Rome, smarting under disappoint-

There was not a doubt of it but that
the issue Of the day was at a crisis.
On our extreme right d'Aumale and
the exiles of France were pitted against
the Huguenot battalions, who went
into battle with a hymn on their lips,
and had sworn by the faith for which
so many OF them had died never to quit
the field alive. Be sure they strove
bitterly there, for the hatreds of sixty
years had met face to face on their last
field. and no quarter was asked Jor
given. In the centre Bouillon, the
Turenne of other days, and Biron-
men whose very names were victory
led the attack which was slowly but
surely driving us back into the river.
At one time indeed the fiery marshal,
with the exception of the King perhaps
the most brilliant cavalry leader of
the age. had all but laid hands on our
standard. and so close was he to me

of the Order at his neck, and clearly

AN INALIENABLE RIGHT.

Lincoln Citizen.
Some of our esteemed newspaper
brethren in this State are declaring
that a man who does not pay his taxes
should not be allowed to vote.
These friends are wrong.
In these times of oppression many a
man cannot pay his taxes without TAX
ing the bread from his childrens
moTths.
He should be allowed to vote tc
change his condition.
Many thousand men have been out
Of work for months and months and
have no money even to secure the
bare necessities of life, let, alone the
payment of a tax imposed by his gov
eminent.
Deny these men the right to use the
ballet, and the stars and stripes will
be supplanted by the flaming torches
of hell and revolution.
The white slave will strike for re-
lease from the bondage of such gov
eminent.
If the industrial system of the coun-
try is such that mills are idle, wages
reduced, business stagnated and labor
paralyzed, surely no man with spark
of love for his fellow man would adj
vocate law to limit the use of the
lallot by denying the suffrage of citi-
Zenship to the low'y poor.
We do not believe the government
should impose a tax of any kind upon
he unfortunates who have shown due
diligence to secure work and failed.
The political party that dares tc
abridge the use of the ballot is an
enemy to liberty.

Second Ward, Hoboken, De-
mands a Special Election
Row Over Toweling.

NaNNL arEf
At the meeting of the Hoboken Common
Council last night q communication was
read from the Independent Citizens AS
sociation of the Second ward protesting
against the action OF Mayor Pagan and
! the Council in opposing the calling of a
special election to iii the vacancy caused
by the death of sthe late Charles Erlen-
koetter and demanding that Immediate ac-
ton be taken to ill the Office.
A resolution ordering an election in
the Second ward vas passed by the Coun-
ell several weeks Ago., but owing to the
Mayors veto it was lost. Mayor Pagan
says ne opposes a special election because
itsis unnecessary and would be an extra
expense on the city. He believes thai the
voters should wait until the next regular
election in September.
Councilmen Weber and Capelli intro
duced another resolution directing the
City Clerk to call an election for August
B. After some argument Capelli called
for a vote on the resolution and it was
passed by a vote of 5 to 4. Those. voting
in the negative were Messrs. Weinthal,
Snyder. McGovern and Bewig.
These people in the Second ward said
Councilman Capelli, have only asked for
is due them. They have petitioned
this Board and should nave a fair repre-
sentation here"
If Mayor Pagan vetoes the resolution,
which he very likely viii do, it will have
to pass the Council by 4 two-thirds vote
before it can become effective.
The Bat alton of the East, Naval Re-
serves, asked permission to moor the
training ship Portsmouth at the foot of
Fifth street, opposite Church Square
Park. THE News" told of the intention
to move the ship several days ago. It is
now located at the Fifteenth street dock,
which is a very unfavorable place owing
to the distance from the central part of
the city.
The ordinance granting the North Hud-
son County Rail ~ Company permission
to op-tate a trolley line through Twelfth
and Clinton streets was passed its final
reading.
An exciting discussion arose over the
payment of a bill of s35 presented by I.
simon. a Washington street dry goods
merchant Councilman Capelli suggested
that the bill be laid over, but Councilman
Weber insisted that it should be paid.
much. A year ago we bought eighty-nine
yards of toweling. Just think of it!
There was enough towels to reach from
the City Hall to Park avenue. We pur-
chased them from Simon and / find upon
referring to the old bill that he charged
up just one-half as much per yard as he
has charged this year. Sometimes l buy
toweling myself. | can get the best for
= cents a yard. Simon has charged up
26 cents"
Councilman Weber said:-'T did not
keep track of the towels; it is not my
business. I would like to know what
Capelli knows about towels, anyhow.
This bill is correct and it should be. paid.
Perhaps Mr.. Capelli could buy them
cheaper If he went on a shopping sexpe-
dition to- New York, but I believe in
patronizing home trade"
The bill was finally laid over for in
v~estigation.
