Largely our ticket does

Largely our ticket does not
represent wealth and some of
our candidates are men of mod

money, it is composed of men as
good as the party could select,

well filled. The time has come
when men should measure up to

Spectator should not seek to
arouse party passions merely to
gain political ends. It has new

effort only has been to arouse
political passion and line 'em up.

an imperial mandate which will
enable him to convert the farcical
National Assembly into a real
legislative body, elected by great
ly extended suffrage, and to
confer on the people fundament-
al civil liberties, including free
speech.
These welcome tidings reached
St. Petersburg shortly before s
o'clock this evening. Count
Witte had spent the day with the
Emperor at Peterhoff going over
the final draft Of the manifesto,
to which he insisted that certain
minor notifications be made, and
before taking the train for st.
Petersburg he telephoned to a
friend that the Emperor had af-
fixed his signature and that the
imperial mandate, comprising the
conditions on which he had
agreed to accept office, was in his
pocket. These include freedom
of the press, the right of assem-

was 1t an appeal to the sober
sense OF the people, but around
the-corner way of arousing par
tlSan feeling and pitching the
presentcampaign on party lines.
There has been no caucus and
no prearranged plans for such a
movement and our candidates
have been selected with better
judgment and higher ideals.
They are men suited for the DO
sitions they seek, and no fair
minded man in this cAunty will
say otherwise. They are all per-

and responsible. 1t is this kind
OF men who should be put in po-

the strict adherence to party
nominees regardless of the adapt
ability of the office seekers to the

The secret ballot system is be-
ing defended by the dark liant
ern process. Nearly every
voter has received an earnest ap-
peal through a circular letter
headed, 'The secret ballot in dan
GER" and signed, Committee on
secret ballot" No persons name
is signed to the letter no one
game enough to stand pat Such
way of meeting a great PROPOSE
ton, to say the best of it, is cow
ardly. The secret ballot may be
best, some think so, and if a man
so believes he ought to speak out
and not take methods of present
ing argument in favor of it and
conceal his identity. 1t is more
than likely that the above circu-
lar letter would lose all of it's
force if it's origin were known.
We have never believed in the
secret ballot and the secret meth
cd of conducting elections. There
are many of the same opinion,
but If otherwise. would not seek
such methods of defending the
secret system as the party or par.
ties couched behind the move.

Yarberry loaned us a copy of
that book and it is just to the
opposite of infidelity. 1t is titled
Morals of Jesus, and is. purely a
compilation of all that Jesus did
and said as recorded in Mathew,
Mark, Luke and John, in Greek,
Latin, French and English, and
shows the great theme of love
which seems to have inspired
and actuated Mr.. Jefferson in
his life's' work. The Jefferson

The argument in favor of re-
tanning the secret ballot system
is overcome by the undisputable
facts known to every voter in this
State, that there has been more
frauds, more contests, more heat
i ed, partisan fights and more buy
ing and selling of votes since it
was inaugurated than occurred
within the State for a hundred
years before. The fight in Louis
vile seems to be over ballots.
Both sides are claiming that gil
gantic frauds will be committed
in the comming election, that
plans for ballot-box stuffing and
ballot stealing are being made.
1t would appear from the charges
that one side are thieves and the
other robbers, that after the vot-
ers have cast their ballots, results
may be changed. Plank it down
with pen and ink and do away
with this stuffing business and
contests and doubtful ballots and
the stealing of honestly cast
votes. If you favor the old hon.

half do the work. A good method is
as follows:
To summer fallow the land the pre-
vious year is the best way to start.
The work, however, may be done with
out this costly preparation, as follows;
Grow a crop of roots of some kind,
beets or maugels will be preferable
to any other, as they will make the
best possible feed for flock of sheep;
and they will make the land clean OF
weeds, which is Indispensable for sue
cess in getting a good stand of grass.
And as the proper culture of this crop
is essential to success it should be
done thoroughly, every weed should be
killed and the land cleaned carefully.
AS soon as the roots are gathered the
land should be plowed deeply, and a
subsoil pillow should he run behind the
turning plow to still further deepen the
soil, and give good depth to make ma
tural drainage. All large stones
should be removed or deeply buried.
The work is then suspended for that
season. Early in the spring the land
should be we'll worked with Guilt
vator, no more than few inches deep.
A rest of some days is then given to
start weeds to grow and then thor
ough narrowing given will kill these
and make the land clean.
Rye may then be sown. and the grass
seeds chosen will be sOwn on the sur

ognizing the importance and utility of
giving them something distinctive, by
which they may be picked out and
known and talked about to the strang-
er. Still there are others that bear no
name at all-and these are in the ma
iority. Why would it not be a good
idea to decide upon suitable name
one that would be distinctive of your
own ranch-and advertise it to the
world, not necessarily by any expen-
sive advertising in the newspapers but
by printed stationery and by the labels
on the fruits and other products that
come from your place? If you are an
up to-date farmer you are as much of
a business man as the merchant in the
city, and you should have printed sta
tionery and cards the same as does the
merchant. And, again, whenever you
have something to sell to the public
at large you should place your adver-
tisement in such papers as The Ranch,
using the name of the farm every
time. BY persistently calling the at
tention of the people to your farm and
giving them good products, your place
will build up a reputation that cannot
easily be shaken. It's market value
will be higher than that of the un,
named farm adjoining yours.

To Make Pasture for Sheep.
Henry Stewart.

Pastures are made, and require
much skill in the making; or they are
not worth much in use. The value OF
a good pasture is such that it is we'll
worth while to take pains and use skill,
in the making of it; for once made it
NAV last a life time. On the other
hand poor job made of it will be
labor and money scattered to the
winds, for nothing. The late summer
is the proper time to begin this work,
and it must be continued in the spring;
bur it will be money thrown away to

the manure dropped on it, and remove
it to other fields and use only artificial
fertilizers on the pasture. Sheep will
themselves sufficiently scatter their
manure. An annual dressing Of three
hundred pounds of common salt per
acre will be very useful, making the
grass more acceptable to the sheep,
or other animals, as we'll as stimulat-

For Heavy Soils.
T h c

1t is most sure to SOW these SEEDS
separately as better distribution OF
them is made, and this is of much i'm
portance to the survival of the grasses.
1t will be most desirable, anyhow, to
repeat the seeding occasionally. and to
harrow the surface of the field then.
A grass meadow in our climate must
be nursed with care for years, until it
has made a sure growth.
IT may be necessary, if the land is
weedy, to summer fallow it. or to grow
a second crop of turnips or potatoes,
and carefully clean the land prepara-
tory to sowing the grass seeds as this
will very much add to the value of the
grass. Two years previous culture OF
the land is no waste of time or WORK.
The first year after seeding, which
should be done by itself and without
anv crop, no animal should be per-
mitted to go on to the field, and after
this much care must be given to avoid
injury by over feeding the grass until
it has made a good covering on the
surface, and has thickened it's root
growth. This makes all the difference
between success or failure. No an
imals. except sheep, should be per-
mitted to feed on the field for few
years, and until the grass has we'll COW
cred the soil and has made a strong
root growth covering the surface COM
pletely and filing the subsoil with
roots. Every year after it has been
started, the field must be literally
dressed with a mixed fertilizer, and all
manure dropped on the surface by
pasturing or working animals must be
scattered by a light narrowing to
spread it, and save the grass from in
jury The pasture must not be over
fed down. Indeed 1t is most desirable
to separate the land into two fields,
and use each half at different times to
avoid too close feeding. And it is TO
be we'll understood that pasture must
he well supported by repeated fer
tilizings, spreading the droppings or
the sheep. and to never admit other
animals into it if the preservation OF
it is desired.
It is very easy matter to make a
grass field in this way that may pay
the interest on hundred dollars an
acre, by the simple method of using it
with care to avoid over feeding, and
