Care of Sheep.

Although sheep have sufficient vital ity to make their raising very profit , able, reasonable intelligence and fore thought must be used in guarding them against disease. But sheep must be guarded against disease more close ly than any other animal, and in or der to keep sheep free from parasitic diseases, it is often necessary to re- sort to preventive medicines. When used, however, they should be used with a definite object in view and with system and regularity.
 By. way of general care of sheep, they need well ventilated or open shed shelter in falling weather. They do not need shelter in dry weather, no matter how cold They should never be crowded into and shut up in close barn. They ought to have run ming water. That from a we'll or cist- ern in clean tank is very good Pond water is objectionable, especially when any disease is present The pasture ought to be rolling, or at least well drained It ought to be divided into thISe parts anu ShCu part uSeu lSA days in rotation.

NEW CHARTER FOR BOSTON.

~ I the election on Tuesday the people of
= - Boston took long step from the present
method OF municipal government. Some time
ago commission was appointed to consider the
entire matter of municipal government for Bos-
ton A report was presented, after careful in
vestigation, and two plans we're offered to the
voters. At the election on Tuesday a refer
endum vote was taken to decide which plan
should be adopted. What was called Plan No
2, which was favored by the reform element was
adopted. The politicians OF both parties sup
ported Plan No +, which would keep the city
government more in control of the politicians
In city elections under the new plan politics is
banished as far as possible.
fhe important feature of the new plan. the
one approved, is that nominations for city places
are to be made by petition signed by no fewer
than 5000 voters No party designations are
to appear the ballots. A mayor is to be cleo
ted for four years, but he is subject to recall by
a majority vote at the end of two years the
City Council consisting of nine members is 10
be chosen at large for three-year terms, Three
Councilmen are to be elected every year
This plan is similar to the commission form
OF government adopted by Galveston Des
Moines and many other cities with the differ
ence that the body of Commissioners or Coun-
cimen IS larger. The two-chamber council dis
appears as well as the large one-chamber body
The Legislative and administrative function in
Boston under the new scheme will be merged in
a comparatively small body and responsibility
will be centralized. There can be no shifting or
shirSing The new scheme was bitterly opposed
by the practical politicians Of both parties
The experiment of Boston with the centralized
form OF municipal government will be watched
with keen interest in other parts of the coun-
try Boston is the first city Of the first class
TO adopt the commission method and it is the
first city of any importance in the East to take
it mp. In the East the scheme has been regarded
chiefly as a Western experiment not suited to
the needs of great Eastern city. Of course,
the success of the new plan depends upon the
kind of men elected to Council. They can make
ed so much complaint in the conduct OF civic af-
fairs Massachusetts has always been in the
front in progressive legislation, and if the new
plan can be worked successfully in the East we
should think Boston the proper place for thor
oueh trial

rHUoGERY IN PHILADELPHIA.

TT the truth were known about the Phiadel-
y phia election, it would more than likely
show that the Gangs candidate Tor District-At-
torney was reelected BY slight majority, II
indeed he was reelected at all So outrageous
was the thuggery and fraud and violence at the
election that the Committee OF Seventy OF Pnn-
adelphia a non-partisan body, has declared that
0such fraud and intimidation make a mockery
of elections and put squarely before citizens the
maintenance of a republican form OF govern
ment"
The Philadelphia newspapers speak of the
violence and intimidation as the worst IN tve
years In fact, urged on BY a desperate desire
to control and fearing defeat the Gang leaders
simply cut loose and used all the methods that
a corrupt and criminal combination, as Senator
Root characterized them, could think Of.
One difficulty in Philadelphia is that there IS
reallv no opposition party--that is, the Demo
cratic party as an organization is simply tool
in the hands OF the Gang. This was shown by
the returns from the Sixth ward, the only ward
OF the city which is still controlled by the Demo
Gratis. That ward gave large majority for the
Democratic State candidate, but Gibboney re-
ceived fewer than $50 votes in the entire ward,
Rotan carrying it by a large majority. This
shows how the two Organizations play into each
others hands.
The Philadelphia Gang has been described as
the most powerful political combination in the
country Those familiar with it say that Tam
many is not 70 be spoken Of in the same breath
It viii be recalled that the last time the Gang
was defeated, it was owing to the fact that the
then Mayor Weaver had broken with the Gang,
and the police and hremen could not be used
bv the Gang leaders on election day. The polls
IN the lower districts of the city were guarded
bv police and other officers causing a sight that
amazed. The opportunities for fraud were les
sened and the Gang was overthrown But in
the election on Tuesday the Gibboney crowd had
no such help, no such chance for fair play.
Warrants have been sworn out by the dozen
for the arrest of those supposed TO have been
concerned IN the thuggery and fraud on Tues
day If Mr. Rotan, the reelected District-At-
torney, is the man that some of the persons who
are usually independent say he is, he will pros
ecute these election offenders But with the
