It is remarkable the way the State Jour-
/ial sweats blood for the grand old party
ill Lancaster county and coddles the
democracy of Sallms county. It is joyful
when it quotes from democratic papers
which nro opposed to the ro-olcclion of
Senator Van Wyck , and nro as gieedy to
acknowledge their good judgment as that
of any other hide-bound corporation
thing who sing the song of the railroads
and their bosses. In fact , they are begin-
nine to find that most of their comfort is
coming from the democratic press of the
stato. However , the people arc taking a
hand In the election this fall , and , despite
the efforts of the Hiirlingtou & Missouri
railroad and the State Journal , including
the lessor lights who are bowing to their
idols , the people will teach them a lesson
both at the polls and in the legislature
that will abide with them for at least six
years. With corn nt thirty-six cents in
Chicago and fourteen to eighteen cents In
Nebraska , the people are not disposed to
longer be subservient , and when the bal
lot box is closed ncxtNox ember the Jour-
nalltcs wil ) think they were surrounded
by a Charleston earthquake. Indued
the leaves will not bo all that are wither
ed by the bleak Kovctnbor blast. The
republicans claim there is a fighting hope
to carry Lancaster county for Church
Howe , and they are using every effort
that nioiioy and work can bring to dupe
the people into the belief that Church
Ho wo is a honest man. Tholr most recent
investment , as reported on the streets , is
the purchase of the An/eigor , a German
paper published hero. They fool that the

together with the loss of the German
vote , will work ruin to theis gang and
Church llowo. They will find it harder
to buy up the people than it was for the
gamblers to buy IIowo off on his gam-
Cling bill.

LEGISLATION OF THE YEAR ,
What the Law Makers Hnvo Done Daring
the Year 1885-00 ,
AN INTERESTING SUMMARY.
New Fctlcrat nnil State Ijnwi Sonic
Kntlicr 1'ccullnr
Now York Sun : A very Interesting
summary of k'jrisltition in the United
States for tlio ycsir 18S.V8G was given by
Mr. William Allen Hutler in his mlilre-s
ns president Ijcforo tlio annual meeting
of the American 15ar association nt Sara
toga last August. The address which is
now published In a pamphlet , reviews
legislation of congress and of sixteen
states.
The extent to which tlic system of bi
ennial sessions has been adopted is
shown bi' the circumstances that legis
latures were convened in less than half
of the states. It also appears Hint the
time of the lawmakers was largely , if not
chlolly , occupied with attempts at un
necessary or impracticable legislation ,
awl in tlio consideration of laws which
promote private and local interests rather
than those of general public concern. In
ten states 12-tl'J ' bills wore- Introduced ,
and only 8il ! ! ! ! passed. In congress
12,000 bills , exclusive of 977 joint resolu
tions , were introduced In both
houses during tlio last session , and
only 1,101 bills or less than ten per
cent , were passed. Even In states where
constitutional restraints exist , the vice of
special and local legislation Mr. Hutler
describes as still n crying ovil. delud
ing the appropriation bills for carrying
on the government and those intended to
euro the mistakes of former legislatures ,
he finds that ' 'the residuum of measures
parsed by any state , as well as by con
gress , really public in their character , is
very insignificant , not to say ludicrous.
in the comparison. " The expense of all
this law-making and these attempts at
legislation ho estimates at $1,00,000. ( ) ( )
Yet only one statute was passed during
the year lor the purpose of bringing about
reform in legislative methods. During
the past four years the bulk of the legis
lation of Sontli Carolina has related to
private and local interests , only 250 meas
ures out of an aggregateof 'nearly W)0 )
being of general public concern. Many
of these private acts , too , arc never
availed of. There are on the statute
books of the state , for instance , more
than 100 railroad charters under which no
railroads have ever been built. Accord
ingly the legislature passed at its last ses
sion a bill pioviding agaist hasty and ill-
advised legislative action.
Mr. Butler reviews tlie legislation of
the year under nine heads , the lirst of
which is the care and protection of chil
dren. Connecticut has prohibited the
employment of children under thirteen in
factories , and the playing of games in
pool or billiard rooms by minors under
sixteen , or their loitering in or about
such rooms. Both Massachusetts and
Now Hampshire prohibited by lino$50
in the lirst state and 20 in the second
the selling of cigarettes or tobacco in
any lorm to minors under 10 ; and in
Massachusetts the penalty is also im
posed on any person , except the parents
or guardian , who gives the prohibited
articles to such a minor. New Hamp
shire. has prohibited , under line of § 25 ,
the putting up or maintaining of barbed
wire fences on any land adjacent , to
school lots , thus protecting tlio bodies
and the clothes of the youngsters. The
same state has prohibited , under penalty
of line and imprisonment , the
employment ot any minor to seller
or give away books , uiiiga/.ines or
newspapers devoted to the publication
or illustration of bloodshed , lust or
crime. Now Jersey forbids , under
heavy penalties , the employment of
children under twelve for singing , play
ing on musical instruments , or any other
like calling to bo followed in the streets
and highways. Maryland has enacted a
cigarette statute similar to that of Mas
sachusetts. Ohio provides against the
adulteration of candy , and Maryland in
cludes cakes also. Michigan forbids fac
tory employment as to children under
10 , and children under 14 unless they
have attended school for at least four
months of the year preceding tholr em
plo.ymcnt. It also requires the provision
of scats for female employes when not
necessarily engaged in active duties.
"The child labor bill" in Now York pro
tects children from being overworked ,
and Massachusetts increases the penalties
for seduction and enticement and raises
the ago of consent from fourteen to
eighteen.
As to women and the domestic rela
tions , there are only a few enactments.
Massachusetts makes the procurement of
a fraudulent divorce a crime punishable
by line or imprisonment , and requires a
libellnnt who has moved into the state
tor the purpose of procuring a divorce to
have a residence of live yours. New Jer
sey lixos the term at throe years , Mary
land at two years. Now York permits
women to vote at school meetings , and
they are made eligible to servo as over
seers of the pqor in Massachusetts. Con
necticut requires ret'istration of the in
tent to marry , and Maryland a marriage
license or the publication of banns.
South Carolina has adopted the rule pre
vailing in some other states , entitling a
husband to the same share of a deceased
wife's estate that a widow gets out of the
estate of her husband. Mississippi makes
punishable the teaching of polygamy , the
inducing to embrace it , and emigration
to other states and territories for the .pur-
pose of practicing it. Husbands and
wives are made , by the same state , com
petent witnesses against each other in
all controversies between thorn. There
has now been in Mississippi coniplotu re
moval uf the common law disabilities oZ
married women.
Georgia , Kentucky , Maryland , Ohio
and Virginia prohibit the sale of mor
phine or any of its salts , unless in scar
let wrapping , with prescribed label , and
Now Jersey and Michigan have also
made pharmacy and the practice ot medi
cine the subject of special statutes , and
in Georgia the regulations extend to
dentists. Legislation with regard to ex
plosives is also general , Mississippi
protects travelers who do not smoke by
providing that the payment of lir.st class
tares shall entitle them to lirst olase passage -
sago , which is doliucd to bo in ' 'any
suitable car in which smoking is not
allowed. " Michigan requires full and

Ohio surrounds her dairies with a cor

Mates have boon severe in dealing with
tlio imitation butter and cheese , while the
oleomargarine law of congress Is well

foreign insurance companies , represent
ing nn aggregate capital of ? 120,000,000 ,
by its now notorious statute prohibiting
all corporations not created by the laws
of the state from onlering into any com
pact for ro'Milating ' rates of insurance.
and providing that in all cases of total
loss by tire the insured shall recover the
amount expressed In the policy. The
consequence is that the only present
means of protection against lire are in
the home companies , with u capital of
only $2,000,000. Iowa has also placed
foreign lusurmco companies under
special disabilities. Michigan has
enacted a law for the Incorpora
tion of mutual insurance ) companies
to insure ; asraiiist cyclones , wind storms ,
and tornadoes , and a law providing
for minority representation in boards of
directors of corporations by cumulative
voting. Massachusetts has authorl/ed
corporations employing labor to issue
special stock , to bo held only by their
employes , at the par value of $10 per
share , to bo paid for in monthly Install
ments of SI on each share , and to bo en
titled to dividends , when declared , in the
proportion in which tlio par value of
such special shares bears to the par value
of tlio general stock. Connecticut per
mits corporations , if they ECU tit , to dis
tribute a portion ot their profits among
employes. Now York makes six months
the extreme period of conlinemetit in the
debtor's jail or within the jail liberties ,
and also has passed a statute providing
for the appointment of a commission to
investigate and report to the next legislature -
laturo "the most humane and practical
method kno\yn to modern science of car
rying into cil'ect the sentence of death. "
Some of the legislation is very peculiar.
Kentucky pursues the lightning rod man
with a requirement of a license fee of
$250. Maryland lias passed an act to
prevent "incompetent persons from prac
tising the ] ) hmibjn < r uusmcss in Haiti-
more. " Kansa3 , punishes as a misdemeanor
meaner the misrepresentation of any
fruit , shade or ornamental tree , vine ,
shrub , plant , bulb'or ' root , or the sunsti-
tution of inferior or dillbront varieties ,
or the false representation of the name ,
age , or class of aucli natural objects.
This law , as i\lr. \ Hutler suggests , was
probably the Work of some statesman
who had fallon1 a Victim to the enterpris
ing tree agent-- New Jersey , however ,
has passed an . cL not very dissimilar.
These are the nioro generally interest-
ina : features of , tl/6 / year's legislation.
Out of the 1,101icts which have passed
both houses 'of congress , and the ! )87 )
which became laws. Mr. Butler llnils
thai these of general interest to the coun
try , as distinguished from local or class
legislation , or the satisfaction of claims
on the treasury , can bo counted on the
lingers of one hand.
There has boon , it is stated , a great
awakening among the Boors ( Dutch sot-
tiers ) of > , atal , South Africa. They have
been so busy with prayer meetings that
the worldly have complained that they
have Hpofied the annual races. The
loader among the converts is a Mr. Nol.
who says he can count over two hundred
in his sparsely settled district who have
experienced a change of heart. The work
wap a very quiet one , beginning without
the aid of evangelistic meetings. Those
awakened showed great anxiety for the
heathen Kallirs , and many natives have
been converted , _
The pain and misery sullbrred by those
who are alllicted with dyspepsia are in
describable. The distress of the body is
equalled or surpassed by the confusion
and tortures of the mind , thus making
its victims suffer double allliolion. The
relief that is Hood's
given by Sarsaparilla -
illa has caused thousands to bo thankful
for thia great medicine. It dispels the
causes of dyspepsia , and tones up the
digestive organs. Try Hood's Sarsa-
parilla.- _
Frank B. Graham and Lottie Pollo-
grint , of Atlanta , wanted to marry , but
her parents said "No. " So Frank and
Lottie wont to iho park and &at down
and waited until a friend brought a cler
gyman. Then , not rising , for fear of at
tracting tlio attention of the many pass
ing pedestrians , they joined hands , the
ceremony was performed , the minister
gave them some good advice and walked
away , and the bride wont to her homo
and the groom to Ids. Three or four davs
later Lottie's parents heard of all tliis
and told her to uring her husband homo
and bo just as happy as she could bo.

A citizen of I'orfjervJs ' , N.Y. , who has
kept a record for tdrty | years , says that
ho has never knoWn the Delaware river
at that point to bo as low as now. It can
bo waded with dry ankles at the rifts ,
and the old swimming holes are hardly
waist deep.
Mild , soothing , and healing Is Dr.
Sago's Catarrh Homcdy.
A band of regulators in the neighbor
hood of State Mills , Happahannock coun
ty , Virginia , are reported as doing many
ugly things , such as burnining property
and administering whippings to persons
of doubtful moral propriety.
Four hundred people boycotted the
Grand Lodge , Mich. , postotllce because it
> yas removed from tlio business center of
the town. The department at Washing
ton bus ordered the postmaster tago back
to a central location.
FIELD , FARM AND GARDEN.
Some Seasonable Hints nml SHE-
ecstlons.
Strong unbleached muslin | is excellent
in place of glass for poultry houses or
chicken runs , and is miichlesso.xponslvo.
Mulch the rose bushes with leaves or
cut straw , placing some kind of heavy
material on the mulch to keep in in place.
Mnko a harness tit properly and a lior < n
can wear it without distress , provided
that it Is also kept decently clean and
comfortably soft.
Warm and cold milk should not 1m
mixed. The new milk should be rid of
Its animal heat before adding it to that of
previous mil king's.
Plenty of rubbing will produce a gnnd
coat ou your horse , "hlbow greaie1
opens the pores , softens the skin and pro
motes the general health.
Should the wheat tield appear uneven
or grass appear , uo over It with a har
row. It will not injitro the wheat. Karly
in tlio spring it should be harrowed agam.
Too depression in wool hns Induced
many farmers to give their attention to
the strictly muttou-brecds of sheep , and
the change has been found to bo a prolit-
able olio.
Lay oft * the walkways now , and have
them made hard with gravel. Tlio grassplots -
plots adjoining may bo worked over and
re-sowed ana the location for nc.\t
seasons' llower-bcds arranged.
Much may bo done to prevent the
spread of noxious weeds by mowing the
hedge rows by the walls and feneo cor
ners and about tlio borders of the plowed
fields before they go to seed.
The Kami Journal Is authority for the
statement that the to-called "appoti/ors"
for fattening stock consist largely of
sugar. All animals like sugar , aitJ will
eat it when other food is rotused.
If geese and ducks are plucked at this
season they must be kept in a warm , dry
place , and fed highly , in order to induce
a now growth of feathers us rapidly us
possible before cold weather.
Too much can hardly be said in praise
of onions for fowls. They are a pre
ventive and a remedy for many of the
diseases to which domestic fowls are
liable , For gapes onions are the best
things that can be fed.
In potting geraniums in tlio fall use a
soil containing a very little manure , but
a liberal quantity of sand if the soil is a
rather stiff loam ; on the contrary , the
soil in the spring should bo rich and con
tain little or no sand.
Feed the brooding owes plenty of oats
at this season , especially at night , and do
not depend upon the pastures. A.s the
grass begins to fail so docs its quality.
If the ewes are expected to produce
strong iiurly lambs grain must be fed
them liberally.
To show the difference between the
good and inferior it may be stated that a
tint-class Holstein will give as much milk
in a year as three ordinary cows , yet she
only requires one stall , and entails no
greater labor or expense m proportion to
her usefulness than the others.
Professor Arnold , who has been in
specting the English modes of agriculture
states that tlio English dairymen are far
in advance of the American. They use
greater skill in feeding and husband the
manure better , as well as using economy
in every department. Ho states that if
our dainmon would economize as well
they would make their farms fertile and
become wealthier.
Hardy bulbs should bo transplanted
when necessary in the falland the earlier
in the fall the bettor. They will do
pretty well up to trost. All tliis applies
to Dutch bulbs as well as others. Bulbs
like to bo rather deep , and to have tlio
soil rather rich and rather damp. It is
the low reclaimed mud of Holland winch
helps their bulbs quite as miuh as the
skill of the Dutch gardeners.
Many farmers believe that potatoes
should bo dug as soon as the tops are
dead ; potatoes are certainly not improved
by lying in the ground through the fall
rains but when Uioy commence rotting
it is better to let thorn remain in the
ground than to dig them and have them
decay in the cellar. Potatoes should not
remain in the light for any great length
of time , or their eating qualities will be
injured.
The Poland China is the favorite of the
western farmers , and the Husbandman
says it is flue to the fact that the breed
is not so closely inbred as are the Berkshires -
shires and Ussoxs. There are several
strains of Poland China and they are all
strong and somewhat heavy boned , which
accounts for their vigor and hardiness ,
the strictly pure English breeds being
bred line in the bono and too close to
color.
The exterior characteristics of a irooil
heavy draft-horse are a largo , deep chest ,
straight shoulders , a littln inclined , llcshy ,
a thick body , yet not too much belly ,
straight loin , the hindquarters n little de
pressed , thick through the thighs and u
long perineum. The horse that has a
long perineum , prolonged down from the
aims , and thick and short muscles of the
thighs , is very strong and a good draft
animal.
A writer in the London Gardeners'
Chronicle has had excellent success in
the cultivation of chrysanthemums by
the usotwlco a week of a teaspoonful of
sulphate of ammonia in a gallon of
water. Tlio effect was marked both in
leaf and llowor , oven contrasted with
pluntfi regularly watered with liquid cow
manure. The system will apply to plants
generally , and will bo worth attention in
winter window-gardening.
The charming effect of Italian growing
vases renders them very popular , says
tlio Farmer's Tribune. The vase should
bo immersed in water for nt least twelve
hours , than as soon as taken out of the
water , and while it Is still wot.covor with
the seed by sprinkling it on. taking care
not to leave any part uncovered ; then at
once till it with water , and every morn
ing rellll it if the water bo decreasing.
In a few days the vase will bo covered
with n beautiful green foliage.
Ho YVnx Not Walking.
Savannah News ; Jabo Malhis , of the
Thirteenth Georgia , was a good soldier ,
but one day when the confederates wore
retreating from the gory Hold of Gettys
burg , Jabo throw His musket on the
ground , seated limiEolf by the roadside ,
and exclaimed with much vchoniencoi

"Can't help it1 said Jabo , "I'm done
for. I'll not walk another stepl"
The confederates passed along over the
crest of a hill , and lost sight of poor , do-
jcotcd Jabo ,
In a moment there was a fresh rattle
of musketry and a renewed crash of
shells , Suddenly Jabo appeared on the
crest of the hill moving like a hurricane
and followed by a cloud of dust , As ho
dashed past his captain that olllcor
yelled :
"Hellol Jabc ; thought you wasn't going
to wall : any more. "
' Thunder ! ' , replied Jabo , as ho hit the
dust with renewed vigor , "you don't call
this walking , do you. "
A Bridgeport paper says that a dotoo-
tivo of that city recently received the fol
lowing letter ; "Will you oblige mo by
