Il am in the business of raising lemons,
which is a very interesting occupation.

OIeo Measure Vicious and Unjust.

THE cotton growers of my State are
hoping that Congress will not pass the
proposed oleomargarine bill" said Mr.. e.
T. Everett. of Macon, Miss. at the Shore
ham. From our standpoint, it is one
of the most vicious and unjust measures
ever sought to be enacted.
The oleomargarine industry is honor
able and legitimate, but the men engaged
in it are to be crushed and their busi-
ness ruined at the behest of the dairy
interests 1t would be just as fair and
honorable to impose a heavy tax on NUT
ton for the benefit of the beef producers.
or vice versa. The passage of this meas
ure would be to set a precedent that one
industry in the United States has per-
feet right, if it can command enough
votes in Congress, to tax competing
business to death This is protection
run mad, and l hope that Congress will
never give sanction to such a policy"

New Capitol for Kentucky.

There will be an effort made at the
present session of our Legislature to
bring about the construction of new
Capitol, and also to remove the
capital itself from Frankfort" said Mr..
C. C. Calhoun. a prominent lawyer OF
Lexington, Ky, at the Riggs House.
Frankfort is slow old town, and
owing to its lack of good railroad facili-
ties is not very good point for our law
makers. There is a growing feeling in
favor of changing the seat of legislation
either to Louisville or Lexington. But
this may be very hard to effect, as it will
necessitate submitting a constitutional
amendment to a vote of the people of the
entire State"

Between $5O0,0o0 and 100000 is the
latest estimate of the loss by the fire
which destroyed the business section of

o'clock in the stables of the New Mil
ford House. The cause is unknown. In
ten minutes the stables, the hotel am.
several small outbuildings were in fares
and the railroad station opposite 'nem
was in grave danger. The village fire de-
partment was unable to cope with the fire
and 1t spread to the Mygatt block, and
thence along Bark street, the principal
business thoroughfare of the village.
Twenty buildings were on fire at one
time. The people of the village feared
that the entire place would be burned,
and moved their household goods to the
large green in the center of the town.
Danbury was appealed 10 for assistance
and an engine was ,sent at 1880. Ihe
fire spread to the postotiice and the Y. Nj.
G. A. building on Mair street, both OF
