A POpuliStic MiSerere.

pcndleton Alliance Herald pop.
The peoples party of Umatilla
county is deal deader than a
drowned rat. The pitiful handful
OF middle-ofthe readers is all that
remains Of strong organization,
which two years ago came within
200 votes of c,rrying the county.
Two years hence 1t will not poll
800 Votes Its day is over. If the
populists had all turned out and
voted the ticket straight, we would
have elected nearly the entire
ticket, but populists don't believe
in that sort of thing-they pre-
fer to exercise" what they fondly
call their own Judgment" And
most Of them have no more iudg.
ment than razor.b back swine with
the blind staggers. Judgment"
forsooth! There is not lunatic
in the asylum who has not as much
Judgment as the average populist.
We've trained with that populist
push for six years, and we know
whereof we speak.
On some political questions the
peoples party is eminentay correct.
The initiative aud referendum, the
government ownership of railroads
aud telegraphs, the abolition ofthe
national banking system, aud the
graduated income tax are good
measures; but they will never be-
come laws until advocated by some
party of political intelligence, in
stead OF disorganized mob of be-
whiskered Jeremiahs. who imagine
that the free coinage OF silver is a
part of the 18th amendme mt, aud
that steel rails are full legal tender
for piebald pink postage stamp at
at ratio of I6 to 1. We have a
few-a very iew-populists who
are blessed with moderate intelli-
gence, but the average-ye gods!
1t would seem that ,he lunatico
inquirendo would have a contin-
uous session if it once began OH the
populist party, for. certes. such a
hungry sanhedrim of tickey- tailed.
chowder-taced, rattle-pated, rum
mocky lurdens never masqueraded
under The name of party before;
nor for that matter ever will again
The democrats have adopted the
populist principles, and there is
no longer all excuse for the exist
ence of the peoples party, where
fore it dies. Peace y its ashes
it may make pood fertilizer.

An Ancient Boycott.

This notice of a boycott more than
leo years before the word was invent
ed appeared in a London paper in 1875:
There being some Indian and French
silks now selling by auction in this
town, and two or three brewers wives
in the earl of Meath's liberty having
bought few pieces thereof, the mas
ter weavers and dyers, as well as jour
neymen of those corporations, givesno-
tee by beat of drum that they would
not drink any liquor whatever brewed
by the husbands Of the sale women,
who would encourage foreign manufac-
ture when there are numbers of poor
weavers in starving condition in this
town and all over the kingdom, for
want of employment"

Trees and Tides.

A very curious theory lately revived
is that the sap of a living tree Gibbs and
flows in some way in sympathy with
the tides of the ocean. The idea comes
from Italy. where Il grower of vines
and other fruit trees, who is also q
chemist has been experimenting in this
direction He says that no tree should
be Topped Or pruned except during the
hours of ebb tide. He has taken four
teen years to come to this conclusion,
and now always acts upon it. The re-
suit is his trees and vines have devel-
oped beautiful foliage, bear splendid
crops and arc quite free from the at
tacks OF the insects which devastate
surrounding properties.

Spring Hair Cutting.

Here's a story Of old times on a big
Texas cattle ranch: 1.-THE boys that
came in late from five or six months
floating trip or soiourn in some iso-
lated camp would have their uncut
locks hanging away down on their
shoulders, and n staple entertainment
was ropiRg them to trim their hairs,
in al sorts of shapes, with sheep or
reaching shears. Some of them would
fight like tigers and have to be roped,
thrown down, and hogtied before the
deed could be done. One fellow that
had handsome hair bcefed about fear
frl. He said he wasn't going to have
no darned blacksmiths or cowpunch-
ers cut his hair; he was going to have
a barber cut 1t right. And when the
men got it sawed off in scollops to suit
them, and gave the word to turn him
loose, he went land got his gun and
paved around considerable. We all
had to get out our guns, and it took
lot of reasoning to get him round.
But when the next outfit turned up,
he was in for roping and cutting hair
with the best of u.s.
