Rig Taken by Mob.

The rig was overtaken three miles
from town and the bishop and priests
were forced to get out and walk, and
the liveryman was made to drive back
to Ulysses without his passengers.
The trouble had it's origin in the
long church feud between Bishop Bon
acum and Father Murphy. for several
years priest in control of the parishes
of Ulysses and Seward. Bishop Bon
acum communicated Father Muir
ply was sustained at Rome, and re-
Gently obtained ruling in the civil
courts BUSTING Father Murphy from
the parish property. The majority of
the parishioners throughout the long
controversy have stood with the
priest, the trustees at Seward, at diff
ferent times refusing to permit priests
sent by the bishop to occupy the
church.
The storm broke when Bishop Bon
acum accompanied by Fathers O'Brien
and Kline went to- install them re-
spectfully at Ulysses and Seward.

Up Church.-Rig Taken
BY Mob.

David City, Neb., June 20.-Bishop
Bonacum, accompanied by Fathers
O'Brien and Kline, arrived here
shortly before midnight, having been
driven from Ulysses, Neb., by an an
cry, hooting mob, which egged them
and hurled bricks after them. No at
tempt was made to injure the two
priests, but the mob, consisting of
nearly 300 men and women, were after
the bishop in dead earnest, and even
threats of mob" him were heard.
The bishop and his priests had
gone to Ulysses to take possession of
the church there, over which Father
William Murphy had held charge.
Sympathizers of Father Murphy, both
Catholic and non-Catholics, joined the
mob, and would have done violence to
the bishop and party had it not been
for the strenuous efforts of Father
Murphy, who counselcd the mob TO do
no violence, and who requested that
the visitors be left Glen. So threaten
ing, however, was the aspect, that
Father O'Brien secured livery rig
and, taking Bishop Bonacum and
Father Kline, started to leave the
town

Waste on the Farm

From authoritative reports by govern
ment officials it appears that some
{, 687, O21 cattld die in the United States
annually from disease and exposure,
most of them from neglect. From the
same source it is also sscertained thai
the loss Of sheep from the same causes
is as great.
These figures only serve to show
what a wasteful people we are. One Of
the excuses the beef trust makes for
high prices of provisions is the enor-
nous death rate of live stock on the
range and on the farm, most Of it due
to pure triflingness of the herdsman
and the grazer. Indeed, the losses by
neglect and exposure greatly exceed the
losses by disease.
1t would be impossible to estimate the
waste of farm products after they mat
ure in the field, but it is enormous
some of it due to scarcity of labor, but
most of it traceable to thriftless hus-
bandry or, in plain speeches downright
l~aziness. One source of waste is imper-
feet cultivation, for millions of farmers
persist in half cultivation, of areas
when they would make more by proper
tillage of fewer acres. Then there is
immense wasted in the disregard of in
telligent rotation Of crops. This is the
worst sort of waste, for it means dew
astation of soils that require years of
provident tillage to replace. All over
the East and abandoned farms that
would today be gardens if they had
been given intelligent cultivation. That
farmer is not fit for his vocation who
does not increase the fertility of his
soil every pdar he cultivates t.-RICE

The following is in part the language
used by Judge Hingls in his opinion:
Though not expressly containing the
general repeating clause, a law, Of part
thereof, might repeal a prior law i'm
plicidly. am of the opinion that the
provisions of Section>22 of act 1874 of

tify the conclusion that the former re-
pealed the latter. That they cannot be
consigned together is obvious from
the fact that the one closes and the
other opens wide the door to all compe-
tition' While under our Jurisprudence
