SEVEN EVIL SPIRITS
"Which Appear In Politica , Ac
cording to Rev , Mr. In
gram ,
of n Sermon Pronolicd In tlto
Christian Chnrch.
Her. .7. W. Incram on Sunday
evening spoke to n fine nudionco in
the Christian church upon the subject
of the rccont ntlompt upon the lifp oi
the president. The title of the dis
course wns "The Seven Evil Spirits in
American Politics. " The text wns :
"Honor nil men , Love the brother
Jiood. Reverence God. Honor the
King. " From I. Pot. , 2 : 17.
Mr. Ingram said : On Saturday
morning , July 2 , 1881 , at n public
< lopot , fn the city of Washington , in
pcn day nnd in the presence of many
witnesses , Jnincs A. Garfield , the 20th
president of the United Stales of
Amcricn , received n dnngorous , nnd
it was feared n fatal wound from n
pistol shot liredby Charles F. Guiteau ,
with intent to kill. This bold attempt -
tempt nt rcgicido is without n parallel
in the history of kings nnd countries.
It is unique in the following particu
lars. It was attempted nt a time
when peace
KXTENDEI ) KnO.M OCEAN TO OCEAN ,
nnd when material prosperity mnrkcd
every portion of the great republic.
The Hash of lightning that hurried the
noble Lincoln into eternity sprang
forth from n retreating cloud of civil
commotion nnd internal war , but the
thunderbolt that so threatened the
life of President Gnrfiold leaped forth
from the bosom of n cloudless sky.
Every citizen in nil the Inndwas living
in the free exercise of nil constitu
tional rights.
The wound wns not inflicted upon a
usurper. There was not n man in all
the wide world to contest his right to
the position ho hold. A majority of
the greatest p&oplo of the greatest
nation on earth , had called him to the
liighcst position within their gift.
For long years ho had
HEIIVED 1I1B COUNTRY
faithfully , in war nnd in peace , on the
battlefield and in the halls of congress.
lie was n man of tender spirit , of
kindly speech ; nnd of n most gracious
ilinnnor. In nil the heat of public
debate , it is said ho never gave utter
ance to n single nngry word [ or bitter
sentiment.
For ton years I lived and labored
onthe western reserve , in the con
gressional district represented by him
nnd often heard him sponk during
great political campaigns , nnd was
over impressed with the wonderful
manliness of the man. It wns always
understood thnt if there wns nny
"dirty work" to bo done , and vulgnr
stories to bo told , some ono else must
bo solectcdfor General Gnrfiold would
not descend to such ignoble work.
In nil his published speeches there is
not ono word thnt would
HIIOOK TUB MODESTY
of the most sensitive , grate harshly
the car of the most cultivated ,
or send n pang to the purest heart.
Now I repeat , the attempt to assas
sinate such n man nt such n time , is
without n parallel in all history.
The American people mny well
pause to inquire niter the cnuso or
causes of nil this.
In my judgment there nro seven
evil spirits in the politics of our coun
try that hnvo contributed to the bring
ing about of thnt state of things in this
country that makes the crime of regi
cide possible.
Wo shall not Cry to associate nny of
those evils with the attempt upon the
president's life , but thiitk it can bo
clearly proven that nil bad n more or
less remote bearing upon the nefarious
deed.
deed.Wo
Wo shall mention ns the first of these
evil spirits
THE Hl'IIUT OP HKCTIONALISM.
To-day , as the people from nil sec
tions of the land , east , west , north
and Bouth , stand grouped around our
suffering President , mingling together
their prayorw nnd tears , this sermon
of sectionalism seems completely ex-
exorcised. So it should bo every day
and every hourof our national lifethis ;
is n Union , and nothing short of unity
of spirit can ensure peace. Sixteen
years ago , on the Oth day of last
April , the noble , lion-hearted General -
oral Robert E. Lee , placed the sword
of the southern confederacy in the
band of Gen. U. S. Grant , nnd not
withstanding this long lapse of time ,
no campaign since the war was char
acterized by more sectional bitterness
than that .which resulted in the selec
tion of James A. Garfield as the na
tion's chief. "A IIOUHO divided against
itself , cannot stand. "
TUB HI'IUIT OK I'AUTY HTUIFE
is the second evil spirit wo wish to de
nounce , this spirit often sinks out ol
Bight , the good of the country anil
the welfare of the people in seeking tc
promote its own party interests.
In n government like ours , parties
are n necessity , but the legitimate ain
of every party is the good of the wholi
country , When turned aside from thi
worthy purpose they become n terror
to the peace and prosperity of the na
tions. As long as party is preferred to
principle and men to measures , sc
long there will bo bitter strivings ii
the land ,
THE HMIUT or MONOPOLY
wo also clasa among the evil spirits
Yet monopolies are not necessarily
wrong , not sinful per si. Monopolio
build railroads , and dig canals , cstab
lish foundries and manufactories
And as long OB they nro kept withii
the legitimate bounds they are bless
ings. ! It i * only when they are
turned aside to illegitimate uses that
they become elements of danger. But
when they seek , by bribery or oppres
sion , to control the votes of a free
people , and direct the great power
and influence of wealth into political
channels , then they become exceed
ingly dangerous.
THE HI-HUT Or COMMUNISM
ia the fourth evil spirit and represents
the opposite extreme to the ono wo
have just been considering.
The danger of this consists not so
much in its desire to fix the wages of
labor and the price of produce , as in
its bitter hatred of national rulers and
its defiance of law and order.
It la also evident in'the measures it
adopls , and pute n low estimate upon
human life.
THE 8MRIT OF LAWLESSNESS
is closely akin to the spirit of nihil
ism. It fosters rebellion , encourages
disloyalty nnd is exceedingly demoral
izing in its tendency. It Acorns nil
law that docs not enhance its own in
terest. It has established iUolf in
every city in the land. In our own
city it bids defiance to the Sundny
law , the license law and various other
laws. Such miserable ndyonturors ns
Guiteau may well reason that if ono
law may bo broken with impunity
nnd without punishment , others may ,
"In the August number of "Tho
North American llcviow , " wn find the
the follouing from the pen of Howard
Crosby :
"Tho non enforcement of law
tenches n people to think lightly of
law. A loose execution of the laws
will ns surely increase the amount of
law-breaking ns water will seek its
level. The restraint of law is in the
certain knowledge of its execution ,
llomovo thnt knowledge , or , rather ,
replace it with the knowledge that
the law will not bo cxtende nnd law
is worse than no law , for it not only
permits crime , but it teaches contempt
for nil restraining stntutcs. "
In the sixth place no call attention
to
THE WICKEK Hl'IIUT OF lIUIItKHY.
This is n custom now iiii American
politics thnt is most pernicious in its
ita results. For years it kept in nmbush
but now it comes out boldly on the
open field of conflict and unblushing-
lycarrios'on its nefarious work. It
wai upon the muddy waters of this
foul stream that Guiteau was berne
with the capital of the nation nnd into
the very hcart of the homo of him
whoso lifo ho sought to take.
Ho wanted oflico , ho sought often
the spoils. Ho had nidod in the elec
tion of Gnrfiold , nnd like thousands of
others less insane , ho demands a re
ward , a division of the spoils. When
this was denied him ho conceives the
crazy idea of aiding another to the of
fice of ( president honing to receive
from him , what had been in his esti
mation so iniustly withheld. May
the Lord speed the day when oyery
man who goes to Washington in search
of an oflico may bo went nway empty.
This would soon dispose .the swarms
of hungry vultures wlio hang around
our nation's capital nnd endanger the
lives of our rulers.
THE Hl'IRIT OF DISRESPECT FOR OUR
RULER
is the seventh nnd last spirit wo shall
hero mention. Wo regard this ns the
most dangerous of ml the evils thnt
infest the politics of the country. Wo
hoar it speaking through our presi
dent of the grandest country on earth ,
"Old Jim Garfield , " "Uncle James , "
etc. , etc. Wo hear our .newsboys on
the streets disdaining to say "Air.
Gnrfiold , " crying ' 'Morning papers , all
about Gnrfiold , ' ' while many of the
partisan papers of the country hnvo
not hesitated to denounce the presi
dent ns "n linr , " "n perjurer , " "a
thief , " "n traitor to his friends , " etc. ,
etc.
etc.Now
Now , why should not such n vicious
character ns tliej would-be assassin
reason nnd with some show of
sanity too , thnt , "if Garfield is such
n vile wretch as these papers claim ,
will I not bo doing God service and
conferring n favor upon the country
by putting him out of the way , and
placing in the presidential chair a man
worthy to occupy it. "
Surely had the utterances of the
pooploprcss ot the country , since the
fourth of March last , been as wise ,
sober and respectful as they have in
the last week , the thought of assassin
ating President Garfield never could
have found its way to
THE ( ! RAXY DRAIN
of Charles F. Guiteau.
My countrymen , is it not high time
the words of the great Jehovah that
demands of us "llonor to whom honor
is duo , " should bo heeded ,
Honest criticism is to bo commend
ed and oncoumgcd. The public nets
f public men nro public property ;
tut there is a wide difference between
ow , vulgnr abuse nnd mnnly , dignified
criticism.
When n majority of the intelligent
icoplo of this free and enlightened
and ask one of their number to pro-
ido over the nfinirs of the nation , lot
,11 the people of every section and
very party respond , Amen , and hold
ip his hands , and render to him the
lionor thnt is mote.
The remedy for all this evil is found
n the few brief , pointed words which
vo have named as our text : "Honor
nil men , " that is esteem , respect all
nen , every man , because ho is man.
'Lovo the brotherhood , " The race
f man constitutes a grand brother-
lood , and the spirit of brotherly love
mould characterize our relations with
3iio another , whether socially , com
mercially or civilly. "Reverence
God" respect his word , which says :
"llondor tribute to whom tribute is
duo , custom to whom custom , fear to
ivhom fear , honor to whom lionor. "
; < IJo subject to the higher powers. "
Ho also says , "Honor the King. "
When these four divine injunctions
nro heeded the evils wo have mention
ed will disappear as mist before the
morning sun.
Blight of the Apple Tree.
About thirty-five years ago northern
orn Illinois was visited with n poriot
of apple tree blight , which lastei
about three years. This blight utter
ly destroyed ono variety the Esopus
bpiteenburg ( which , before that time
had done remarkably well ) seriously
jnjurod several other varieties , am
appeared to injure nearly all kindi
some what. Then for about twenty
five years this apple blight almost entirely
tiroly disappeared. Twelve or four
teen years ago wo began to hoar o
great destruction of apple , and espoci
allv Siberian crab , trees in Minnesota.
This blight spread southward , ant
showed its greatest viruloncelin north
ern Illinois three years ago tnis sum
men , Now it appears to bo working
the greatest destruction in the latitude
of southern Indiana and Ohio. Ii
northern Illinois , now , it is 1191 nea
so bad this year as last in fact Jim
well nigh disappeared and was not so
bad last year as the year before. I
was much more injurious to some
varieties of apples than to others. I
almost annihilated the Domino am
I < a\jlos Janet. Its attack is nhnos
similar to the well known "fire blight'
of the pear. On some varieties of ap
pics it only killed the twigs of th
current year's growth , on others i
killed largo branches , while on others
it appeared to pervade the whole tree
Its action On the Siberian crabs was
exactly like the blight on the pear. A
few of the crabs escaped entirely ,
notably the Hyslop and Orange.
Some persons have n theory that
this blight wni the icsult of the ex
treme cold winter of 1873-4 , but we
can not accept this theory , though it
has ono point in its favor , to-uit : Some
of the varieties that were the most
severely injured by that winter suf
fered greatly from the blight. But
there was no cold winter preceding the
period of blight years ago.
Wo look upon this blight ns ono of
the periodical epidemics , caused by
parasitic life , or disease , if you wish
BO to term it , that all life appears to
bo morn or less subject to. tlio snmo
ns mankind is to Asiatic cholera , yel
low fever , mumps , scarlet fever , etc. ,
nnd belonging to the same uncontrol-
nblo class ; so fnr ns our present know
ledge of medication goes. But wo
write this to call the attention to the
scorning periodicity of the diseases.
In tlio west wo have just passed
through ( or the indications of llinl
way , eight to ten years of very pre
valent pcnr blight. Wo nmy now
hnve quite n period of very little
pear blight , ns wo did from 1800 to
1870. Wo hnvo periods of cherry
leaf blight ; then it disappears. So
wo have of the "curl of the
poach leaf , fungus on the y.oung plum
black knot on the plum , "ied rust" of
the blackberry , etc.- They nil nppenr
to como nnd go poriodicnlly. Wo can
suggest no cure or remedy for the
blight of the apple tree , nny moro
than wo cnn for the blight of the pear
tree. It is undoubtedly cnuscd by
"Bactoritu , " nnd Prof. Burrill snys.
they nro caused by exnctly the same
bactoriio. This may bo so , but there
nro some points thnt tend strongly to
show that they nro not the same. In
our present state of knowledge wo nra
forced to place apple blight along side
of pear blight , and uncurablo. Noth
ing but excision of nil the discnscd
parts will chock it. But wo should
continually experiment. Wo may
find some simple remedy easily ap
plied thnt may ward 'off its attacks ,
but wo must not bo too sanguine of
success , for it is n fact thnt the moro
wo find out about these blights the
moro diflicult prevention appears to
be. The only pointer townrd preven
tion thnt wo cnn now see , is to keep
the bark continually covered with
something thiough which the disease
( hacterin ; ) can not , or will not , pene
trate , for it appears to spread by con
tact or inoculation only. [ Prairie

Propn.ro for Turnips-
The intense heat of Juno has dried
up nnd burnt out many patches of
potatoes , early corn , cucumbers and
squashes. They are already done for.
They are cucumbers of the ground ,
and should giyo way to another attempt
for n crop this season.
There is ample timonow to plow and
manure , nnd harrow it in for n turnip
crop. If the ground can now bo pre
pared , and the weeds start within n
month , a scratching with the smooth
ing harrow will destroy them , and put
the ground in fine condition for the
turnip seed.
The old English rule for sowing tur
nip seed on the 25th of July , wet or
dry , might have been the best for the
damper climate of England.
It is too early for this latitude. The
soil is too loose and the season too hot
and dry , nnd the fly too abundant
then. Bettor success has nttonded us
in sovring late , oven as late as Septem
ber 10. Turnips do not make much
growth until the weather gets cool.
August is n better month than July
for sowing turnips. The chief thing is
too have the land in good condition.
It should bo plowed nnd top-dressed
otno dnys before sowing.
All the ground now in onrly pota-
oes can bo put into turnips. Farm1
rs generally do not appreciate the
inportanco of keeping land employed ,
'ho damage to land from taking oil'a
rep of turnips is not equal to the ben
efit done to it by clearing it of weeds
uid plowing and top-dressing it , pro-
> arntory to the turnip crop. The
urnips nro worth twenty cents a
jushel for feeding 'to sheep nnd cows.
I'lio turnips can be kept in pits or
oot cellars. Wo prefer to put ours
n pits , and when the pits are opened
remove the turnips to the bank-barn
vhoro they are fed out vyithout loss.
"It is too early to dig potatoes , "
says ono. Wo have not found it so.
After potatoes have matured they are
safer and bettor out of the ground
linn in it. They will not take the
second growth nor bo subject to such
'icnt. There , is no trouble about keep-
ng potatoes if they nro kept dry nnd
cool. If , instead of piling potatoes in
; ho broiling sun for n day or so , they
are placed in the shade as soon as
digged and kept coolon dry barn floor ,
or out-house , there will bo no coin-
Slaint about potatoes not keening ,
ccasionally a collar can bo found dry
enough to keep potatoes well in the
fall. Such n collar is exceptional } ' in
a clay subsoil.
If the potatoes are put at once into
n wngon with n cover over it , they
will bo protected from the sun ana
take no harm if left there some dnys
in the shade. If the potatoes nro to
go into n bin or cellar in warm weath
er , they will keep bettor if allowed to
stand in a coo.1 place in the wager
during night and put into the bin ii
the cool of the morning. With m
tional care in handling potatoes , wo
shall hear few complaints of their nol
keeping.
With these hints it is safe to invcs
a pound of turnip seed , and put nil the
unoccupied spots in turnips.
Good care is important in raising
turnips.
N ver Piutare Dairy Meadows.
Nitlon&l Lire Stock Journal , Chicago.
If all dairymen were close observers ,
this article would bo quite unnecessary ,
advice quito as useless as to gravely
advise a man not to cut his own head
off. But dairymen will yet keep 15
cows that only give a moderate yield
for 10 , because they do not observe
the ditlbrcnco in the yield of their in
dividual cows , and have no distinct
standard in their minds of what the
yield of a profitable cow should bo ;
and thus they go on year after year
keeping one-third of their cows that
run them in debt. )
When fiomo dairymen observe n
little after growth upon their meadows
in the fall , they are prone to think of
the nice bite it would give their cows ,
then on short pasture , and immediate
ly introduce them to it , when the cows
eagerly consume the small stock that
nature has provided as a protection to
lie grass roots for the coming winter ,
'he short-sighted dairymen prefers
fie small present gain , regardless of
lie heavy loss on tlio future crop in
act , ho probably docs not think of
lie effect upon the future crops nt nil.
How to Food PlfS .
The nice point in growing pigs is to
cep them growing. This is easily ac-
omplishcd for the first three or four
veoks by feeding the sow bountiful-
y upon nourishing slops. As the pigs
row older I feed corn meal cooked in-
o a mush , nnd mixed with whey ,
kimmcd milk or other house slops ,
nd , finally , soaked corn ; by which
itno they are old enough to take
indly to grass nnd clover , nnd thip ,
with the soaked corn , will keep them
rowing rapidly.
Do not depend too largely upon
orn , but provide grass in nbundnnco.
V most excellent food for the purpose
