CHICAGO, Dec. 29.-Serious trouble
appears to be ahead of D. NJ Carman,
a member of the California Land Com
pany, who is charged with swindling
Although the first charge against him
has not yet been disposed of by Jus
tice Martin, over a dozen complaints
have been filed against him, and he
has been re-arrested on four war
rants, charging him with obtaining
money by false pretenses. Warrants
were issued by Justices Martin and
Everett. The cases before Justice
Martin will be called for q hearing to-
morrow afternoon, and an attempt
made to dispose of them before court
adjourns.
Among those who have filed COM
plants against Carman are: DR.. J.
Potter, DR.. E. T. Murdoch, Louis
Adams, NJ. A. Miles, A. J. Lewellyn,
George Bergen and William Bovenizer
Carman's rearrest was a great sur
prise to him, and he said he thought
the joke, If it was a joke, was being
carried too far. He demurred against
further detention, as the committee
of which he is member was going
East tonight.
This brought out a statement from
the Prosecuting Attorney that IL Car
mans fellow Californians proposed
waiting for him they could at once
make up their minds to make Chica go
their permanent hone After some de-
lay Cafma-l found bondsman and was
released.
The arrest to-day was caused by
William Bovenizer Of 1896 Elmwood
place. He, like Binnes, claims to have
dealt with Garman rs the head of the
Kenwood Land Company Of Ennwoocd.
Cal. He claims a loss of S1))0.
S. L. Saunders of the same address
appeared to secure a warrant. claim
ing to have lost $500 as the result of his
transactions with Carman. According
to statements a large number OF others
are about to bring similar prosecu-
lions. They say the concern did an
extensive business, and it was repre-
scented TO purchasers that they were
getting the finest fruit lands. Upon
investigating they found, they say,
that they had purchased barren rocks,
and the property was taken from them,
they say, by foreclosure of blanket
mortgage covering entire property.

DON'T BLAME THE WORLD.

Don't blame the world because the thorn are
found among the roses;
The day that breaks IN storm may be all sun
shine when 1t closes.
We cannot hope to always meet with for
tunes fond caressing,
bring with it a blessing.
That buried seed must rot in earth ere 1t
produce the flower,
And the weak plant to fructify must have
both sun and shower;
So man. to gain development. must struggle
with lifcs crosses,
And view with calm philosophy his trials and
his losses.
A deadly. pois'nous weed may yield a salvc of
surcst healing;
The sweetest blossom may pois' nous be- al
though It's bane concealihg.
Things are not always what they seem. but
still twas Heaven designed them,
And We should class them all AS good and
take them As we find them.
Little We know OF this brief life. and nothing
OF its sequel;
Then let US take in humble trust all that may
seem unequal.
Gods ways are not our ways, and He should
certainly be trusted;
All that is wrong in His good time will surely
be adjusted.

A HARVEST OF GRAB.

St Louis Republic.
Chairman Dingley estimates that
the new tariff bill will increase the
revenues the first year by from s70,-
900, 900 to s7j, 900 900. This is an over
estimate, because many Of the taxes
levied in the bill are prohibitory and
will greatly cut down the trade on
which the estimate is based.
But whatever the increase OF reve-
nue., It will be gained at tremendous
cost to the people, for as the Re.
public's Washington correspondent
puts it, 80 will 20 into the pockets of
the favored manufacturers for everysl
that goes into the treasury. Every u
Of revenue covers $40 OF robbery.
The DIngley bin differs from the
Mckinley law only in the fact that it
adds fraud to oppression. There was
no pretcnse OF anything but high pro-
lection in the Mckinley bill, but the
Dingley bill, under plea Of revenue
needs and pretense of modifying the
Mckinley tariff, is robbery measure
in few respects better and in many
worse than the Mckinley law. 1t
takes all the nccessaries OF the poor to
further enrich the millionaire hackers
Of the Republican party, 1t is only by
fortunate circumstance that the bill
does not greatly increase the price OF
food, Tor it lcvies heavy taxes upon all
foodstuiTs and the seed that goes into
the ground. Ii we imported them
largely starvation would be increased
by the enactment Of this law.
How fraud has been practiced in the
framing Of the bill is shown by the
agricultural schedule, where an at.
tempt is made to dupe the farmers by
useless protection. How petty dccep.
tion has been resorted to for the pur.
pose OF hiding robbery is shown by the
shifting OF whole class OF lOw-taxcd
woods in the carpets and the clothing
Of the poor to high-taXed class,
without mention Of the rates levied
on them. More than month ago,
the Republic f0reshadowcd the COM
plcted bill by stating with remarkable
accuracy the taxes agreed upon in q
large number Of important articles.
1T predicted that the revenue which
the bill would raise would be chiefly
private. The truth Of the report and
the prediction is found in the bill sub
mitted to Congress. The fruit OF the
campaign Of Doodle is harvest OF
grab.

PLANTING TOMATOES, ETC.

Geo. Graham, OF Waco, Tex, de.
scribes his methods OF growing toma-
toes in communication to the HOrti-
cultural Cleaner, as follows:
Five hands have watered plentifully
the bed from which plants are to be
taken and are now busy drawing out
the plants or lifting them out careful
ly with trowels as the case may be.
The man with the pow horse goes for
a barrel OF water and the expert hand
straddles the row, planting with
dibbcr, il on level, or with the hands
If on back furrow, whilst his assistant
hands the plants, one at a time, from
Il basket or bucket. The water haulcr
follows up and from a water.can pours
water into the hole, which has only
been partially closed, settling the soil
evenly around the plants. Then la
ter, with either Il hoe or rake, the
loose soil is drawn into this hole and
to the plant, and the operation is fin
ished.
Were there no cut-worms, 100 per
cent Of these plants would live. l
follow the same method with cab
bagcs, pepper, potato slips, etc. Cut.
worms do not like to gnaw wood very
much, SO the stronger and more woody
the plant, the less they can work upon
them. Again layer of purified cow
pen scrapings sprinklcd around each
plant forms Gordon they cannot pass,
and so it is comparatively easy to pro-
tect the young plants.
For earliest tomatoes l run rows
three feet and set plants eighteen
inches apart. The later or main crop,
four feet rows and two TO four feet
apart according to conditions Of soil.
Egg plants, four feet each way. and
pepper three feet by eighteen inches.
