The patriotic purpose OF THE TIMES to aid in
the restoration OF the Government to the princi-
pies on which its foundations were laid is a
matter OF sincers rejoicing among men who
cling to the Constitution as the safeguard of
popular rights. With millions OF my country
men see in this loyal expression of fidelity to
the simple faith of the fathers as against the
arrogance OF a military system and the DONNA
ton OF lawless trusts the promise OF an awak-
ening of the conscience of the people OF Penn
sylvania that must bear fruit in impelling lovers
Of civil liberty to greater and more determined
effort to break the thralls that have chained
them. The Democratic party is to be congratu-
lated on the accession of powerful ally in the
cause of the people. w. j, BRYAN.

A Phenomenal Peach crop.

The condition of peaches on July
was such as to give promise of phe-
nomenally large crop. IN several Of
the great peach growing states of the
south the condition was more than
double the ten year average, while in
many of the north Atlantic and cen
trail states it exceeded the ten year
average by from % to rs per cent. OF
the 1S principal peach states Califor-
MIA. with condition points below it's
ten year average, formed the only ex-
ception to an otherwise unbroken Sc
ries of extraordinary favorable reports.

Where cultivating has been neglected,
go to work at once. If only a small
bed, take a sharp shovel and skive
off the ground between the rows. If
weedy, NOW the patch close to the
ground. Then take an iron rake and
rake the rows, tearing out all the
weeds and grass with the surplus
plants that the rake will catch. Loosen
the ground between the plants, thin
ming them to four and six inches.
Burn the rakings, as in this way many
insects will be destroyed. In larger
lots use a horse and pillow between the
rows, giving the above treatment in
the row, and cultivate thoroughly, but
not deeply, until the middle of Septem-

ter for new bed than too much stable
manure. Following corn, potatoes or
some cultivated crop is the best prepa-
ration for Strawberries. If good plants
are obtainable, planting can be done
In damp, cloudy time In August or
the first half of September. With a
narrow spade dig holes in the rows;
then cut around the plant, lifting it out
on the spade, and set in the hole. Pot
plants are set in same way.
In the central and northern states
the strawberry bed must be covered to
give winter protection. Straw, corn
stalks or swamp grass can be used,
putting on thickly enough to protect
from sudden changes. / want to

Convention Notes.

Indianapolis. Ind, Aug. 2s-Fhe
National Afro'American Council met
here to-day with an attendance of 400
of the representative colored men Of
the United States. Bishop Walters,
president Of the organization, was in
the chair, and after addresses OF wei.
come by Governor Mount and Mayor
Taggart, he made his address, which
was the feature Of the day. He said
that the colored race was passing
through the most critical period in its
history: that great wisdom was needed
to guide it's destlnies, aud that the race
must stand for Its natural and constitu.
tionl rights, not in combative, re-
vengeful spirit, but in a manly, coura.
geous way.
He pleaded for full recognition of
the privileges accorded to every white
citizen of the United States, denounced
the recent Acknowledgement amend
ments in North Carolina, and accused
the Federal government of neglect in
not projecting the franchise rights of
the Negro. He admitted that prejudice
was on the increase, but urged that 1t
is best to cease resistance, and do by
education, industry, and character
what cannot otherwise be peaceably
accomplished. He urged the race to
act Independently In politics, and de-
clared that politicians must cease to
make the Negro pawn In the politica
game.
Bishop Walters, at the conclusion of
his address, said that in the making
up of the committee which Is to frame
the address to be issued to the country
he should instruct the secretary in in
stances where Democratic organizations
were represented by delegates from the
same localities, where Repu blican clubs
were similarly represented In the place
the name of a Democrat and a Repub'
lican in the committee
This brought James Lewis, OF New
Orleans, to his feet. "A Negro Demo.
crat," he exclaimed. "Are there any
Negro Democrats here? I should like
to see one.''
Then Delegate J. Milton Turner,
President Grants Minister to Liberia,
aud who for many years has been an
ardent Democrat, arose and said
Il have come here to participate ID
the deliberations Of this convention
Imbued with the idea that Its purpose
was not political one, and that no
man would appear as Democrat or
Republican, SO far as his carrying out
his obligations to this convention may
be concerned. I am here as a repre-
sentative OF my race, that, end that
alone, and wish right here to inveigh
against any attempt by any man who
enters this convention hall as dele
gate to toist political questions or polit'
ical discussons upon U.s."

POSTAL FRAUDS in CUBA
PAPERS ASKING FOR ExTRADITION
OF CULPRIT FORWARDED.

HAVANA, May THE papers asking
for Charles Neeley's extradition left for
the United States this afternoon 1t is
understood that The Fidelity Trust COM
pany, of Maryland, is on his bond for
$4,000
The announcement of the arrest gave
the first public intimation that alleged
frauds had been discovered in the postal
department. Col. Burton had been in
Vestigating for several days, and he
found matters in such a condition that
he determined to make an immediate per-
sonal report to Washington. 1t is stated
on reliable authority that since January,
of last year, the government has been de-
frauded monthly of more than $4,000 on
stamped paper alone The culprit or cul-
prits are believed to have received $685.
900, and to have accounted for only $16-
0O0
During the last four months it is said
that Neeley's shortage in the aggregate
has not fallen short of $36, 900, and that
prior to the beginning of this year the
average was much higher. For a long
time Neeley lived eXtravagantly.
Auditors Reeves and Reynolds have
been temporarily suspended Maj Rath-
bone director of posts, set special agents
at work investigating the matter when
first it was called to his attention some
weeks ago. These agents reported April
is that the accounts were correct.
