While it is true that (Jeneral Manson fought in two wars, still that does not make a ft ocl average for soldier recognition in this revenue district.
Lot's have that list of appointments in this revenue district and see if t!froerer, whose appointment the Ga/.ett® says was unlit, is the only German receiving recognition.
It is barely possible that in times gone by I'eter (ifroorer rendered the Republican party some little service but never so much as since the Democracy inlluonced him to betray the party with which ho and his newspaper had been associated.
Tho (!a/.ette
Bays
(Ifroorer was incom
petent. Tho Express says that an official oT tho service who knows all about the work of the gangers is the authority for tho statement, that there is ono ganger less competent than (Jfrooror— but lie is an irishman.
Tho Gazette is again praising tho management of ho Western Union telegraph ollico in this city. It is about time to say to the Ga/.ette that until it gives a full explanation of how it came into possession and dishonorably made public use of a certain private telegraphic message sent from here last Juno during the Ives deal, that its praise of the tele graph ollico counts for nothing.
.The (la/.ette says I'eter Gfrooror's appointment should never have been made hat tho Germans are not represented by him and that he is incompetant. Then why was ho chosen as about tha only German in the service* In another place lite senior editor of tho Gazette says that ho received part of Gfrooror's pay, handed to him by an ollicial of tho I'nitod States government for a time sifter Gfroerer entered tho service. Is that the reason (Jfroerer was appointed?
That tho wi Iter with several other victims of misplaced confidence went on Peter iJToerer's note as Indorscr Is most true.' TIs true, 'tis pity and pity 'tis 'lis true, or words to that elfoet. They not only went on his note hut they had to pay It. The writer Is unite willing to confess he made a mistake. He wishes lie had not done it. He thought tifroerer would be competent to par. an doubtless Collector llanlon thought he would prove coinpetnt to perform the not onerous nor (illl'.cult duties ol ganger, Doth were most grevlously mistaken. That (Jfroerer should turn upon and hate those v,ho helped him merely proves him to tie an Inerate of a peculiarly disagreeable type. lUit that the note endorsing or the writer and Ills fellow victims of misplaced confidence, to help one whom they thought a poor wayfarer through this vale ol tears, should be held up to reprobation Is a new wrinkle In ethics. That sort of logic won't work it won't begin to work. There Is a murk to our credit for that endorsement on the ledger of life and. we sometimes fear, also on the fool-kil-ler's hook. [(iazette.
lVrhaps no comment on tho above 13 necessary, especially hen it is considered in connection with the following found iu another part of tho same issue of the Gazette:
The statement that Peter (Jfroerer was given hit position lit the revenue service In order to enable him to pay his creditors, is not true. After ho got the place ho did set aside for a little whllea part or h!s salary for some gentlemen who heavily endorsed for him, but he long since stopped that.
As to this devious hypocrisy, all we ought to say is. I Josh! "The writer" certainly should be as well informed as the person in his employ who sent to the Cincinnati Enquirer the statement that it was "of common notoriety" that Gfroerer had been "subsidized by both parties for years." The pretense that he was "holpiug a poor wayfarer" is puerile he was subsidizing him with the contingent expectation of recovering the subsidy from the federal treasury. Xow. that "the writer" has practically admitted that all we have said was true.
we will ask one more question: Did you intimate to any one that Gfroerer was incompetent, as you now charge he was from the beginning, and that the appointment was an unfit one to be made, so long as Gfroerer continued to set aside apart of his salary for you? Did you not. as soon as he countermanded his order to the collector for the payment to you of that part of his salary, begin active operations against him in the courts and elsewhere?
The Gazette and General Manson said there are "several other Germans" in the employ of the service in this revenue district. The Express says there are not and the Gazette changes the subject. Let's have a list of employes, and since General Manson was so anxious in his card to make it appear that Germans received full recognition we suspect that he will be equally as desirous to explain to the people of Indiana, (who, according to Gazette office information, are to be called upon to vote for him for gov ernor next yearj why it is that since tho Democratic administration came in there is only about one ex-union soldier to the dozen that formerly held places in the service. The general has traveled a long ways in the Democratic party as tho soldier representative. He has been used on all occasions for the purpose when no copperhead wanted the real fruit of party victory, and being thus conspicuous 111 this regard we knowhe will furnish an explanation we long have sought and mourned because we found it not.
If Mr. Cleveland had possessed tho least bit of foresight he would have expressed himself on the tariff question two years ago. Then was the timo for his party iu the house to do something with the tariff before the surplus accumulated in the treasury. To be sure tho reason that it did nothing was because it could not agree upon the manner of doing it and the same reason will prevent action now although the occasion for wiso tariff revision-is far greater than ever known.

When Fall I'lanling is 15est
The question jof fall planting of trees periodically occupies the columns of the leading agricultural journals aud during the early fall months no question is oftonr asked by purchasers of trees than: "Do you recommend fall planting?" Tho answers, "no" and "yes," may both bo applicable if the situation and condition of toe soil where the trees are to be planted are known.
On soils imperfectly drained, in which an over-abundanco of water remains from the time our autumn rains fall until the 1st of May, then I would say -no''—leave your planting until spring. Bo the tree ever so carefully lifted, there are a good many mutilated roots these broken roots, if the soil in which they itre placed is in good condition, will callus and be in a suitable state for making a new growth on the tirst approach of warmth in tho soil in the spring. If however, too much moisture is present in tho soil, instead of forming a callus, it blackens and decays back to the main root.
On all well-drained soils, either natural or artificial, and where the trees to be planted are well matured, I prefer fall planting the trees get settled in thoir position and are ready to get fruitgrowth before spring-planted trees are moved, and if a dry time occurs during May or Juno they stand it better than the spring-planted ones, especially the late planted ones.
One point I would impress upon tree planters—to pack tho soil closely around the roots—if shoveled in ou top of the roots and tho feet used to pack the soil, a great many empty spaces aro left around the roots which prevent, the production of new ones and leave the old in a condition to easily dry up. I generally use in tilling up these
empty
spaces a
short, round stick about an inch or so in diameter: put the soil in, in small quantities. and pack firmly under, above and all around every root, leaving no possibility for any air spaces, nor any root in a condition to die from lack of moisture. [M. Milton in Country Gentleman.

THE TERRE HAUTE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 7, 1887.
SHOWING UP COI.ON'EL SMITH.
The Unpaid Groomsman Getting Unenviable Notoriety.
The action of Colonel .Nicholas Smith in presenting a bill of 8180 to Edward J. Ovington of Brooklyn and Chicago for services rendered as best man at the millionaire's recent wedding and his letters regarding the payment of the bill, have considerably agitated society on Brooklyn Heights, where both men are well known. Mr. Ovington said: "I know practically nothing about Mr. Smith, and a number of myfriendsask how I came to choose such a man as that for groomsman. He left Louisville very abruptly the night of my marriage because, as it is understood there, the sheriff was looking for him for debt. While I was in Cincinnati a short timo afterward Colonel Smith called on me and asked me to endorse his note for 32,000 or 83,000,1 forget which now. I refused, aud, doubtless, to revenge himself, ho has commenced this disgraceful action. I did not ask him to stand up with me, and from what I heard of him after my marriage I was not surprised to receive a bill from him. I sent him 8100, which was more than he should have received, but I thought if I could get rid of him in that way the money would be well spent. To tell the truth, I do not believe he spent a cent to come to the wedding, as he was always running back and forth from New York to Steubenville and Louisville. My friends were moro than surprised at my accepting his offer to stand up with me, but I could not refuse his offer, coming as it did at tho request of a mutual friend. Nothing he could say could in jure me in any manner."
The action of Col. Smith has opened tho way for may friends of the late Horace Greely to speak their minds con cerniug his squandering of the fortune left by Greely to his two daughters, Ida and Gabrielle, the former of whom Smith married. Mr. Smith has been a sore subject to many of them, who knew that he had by his investments lo=t all the money left to the Greely sisters, and with their fortuno that of Mrs. Cleveland, sister of Mr. Greely. Such is the fact, and Mrs. Cleveland, who has for some years lived at the Col man house in New York, has added to her income byperforming certain duties in that hotel. Sho has been reticent concerning the conduct of Col. Smith, mainly because that person had said that if any publicity were given to the matter he would never make the ioisos good, and if it were kept quiet he would pay back what he could. Miss Gabrielle Greeley's money was in his hands and that went with Mrs. Smith's. The money of the lnttor, after her death, was to go to her children. Mrs. Smith died before her money was spent. Tho children wero taken to Kentucky, and thoy are now there in the charge of his sister. Miss Gabrielle Greeley is living at Chappaqua in the home of old friends and has nothing left of her patrimony. Her friends have grieved that 3he has lived so retired a life, but few of them have been told that she has no alternative without making known her condition, a thing she has not done out of regard for her sister. Mrs. Cleveland has scrupulously avoided all talk of her misfortunes, and the few friends who have shared her confidence have felt that it was the only hope of her securing any of her lost property. Of late they have not believed that she would over recover a dollar, and now that tho colonel has shown himself, apparently, to be utterly impecupious, all hope has Hed. Horace Greeley's child and his grandchildren are poor and his sister is homeless in her old age.

A Former Kesilent of this City Gets Into Trouble at CrawforrtsviHe.
Kobert J. Green, who is known to many iu this city, and whose father, the Rev. James W. Green, is much better known as pastor for many yoars of Asbury M. E. church, and afterwards presiding older of this conference, has gone wrong. When Henry Hulet took his ollico as clerk of Montgomery county he made Green court clork, and to all appearances ho tilled the place most acceptably. For some time past, however, parties having suits in tho Circuit court have been surprised at the excessive costs in tho various cases. Tho matter was investigated find it was found that Green had been making the over-charges and putting tho surplus in his pocket. Clerk Hulet at once discharged him and also required him to return about 8600 that ho had unlawfully collected and appropriated. Ho was allowed to go freo from prosecution because of his relations and previous good name.
The cause of his downfall is said to have been gambling. He lost tho money he got wrongfully from others. Tt is denied that ho was a hard drinker.
Green graduated from DePauw university in 18S:» with high standing. His prospects in lifo wero the brightest. After graduating he studied law with Judge Snyder, of Crawfordsville. He was getting ready to run for clerk in Montgomery county ami his chances wero good for tho nomination. Last Thursday evening ho was married in Lafayette to Miss Maude Miller. Scarcely had the sound of tho wedding bells died away when tho announcement of his disgrace was made. They started at once for San Diego. Cal. Many creditors in Crawfordsville are left iu the lurch. A Crawfordsville paper says: "He possessed an uncommonly bright mind and when he. chose the law as ii profession his admirers predicted a future full of success and honor ror him. Of tho younger members of the Montgomery county bar none were moro promising than Jim Green. He possesses those qualities of mind, which, properly directed, would have made him some day a leading man in this state. Hisnatural gifts were of a high order, hereditary and cultivated, and to have trampled all in the dust is most lamentable indeed."
"iiR. lUFi'.U'OIU' 31 AD.
A Warrant Issued I'or the Arrest ofYl.iT. Crai^:, of the Sentinrl, for Libel.
A number of Knights of Labor are in the habit of holding what they call a"mass meeting" every
Sunday
.V
afternoon in Mo
zart-hall, Indianapolis, and Phil Ilappaport presided over the ono Sunday and the Sentinel quoted him with having given voico to decided anarchical sentiments, among other things crediting him with saying: "There is but one way for the workingmen to obtain their rights. They never can do it by agitation or education, and to vote their sentiments is useless. The laboring classes must make up their minds that what recognition they get they will be obliged to come to the front and tight for, though it may endanger tho safety of this republic." Theexpression is said to have nettled John T. Mahorney, colored, and the Sentinel reports him with shouting out, "This sort of speech at a Knights of Labor meeting will not do," and then Mahorney proceeded to say that while the laboring men were demanding bread for themselves and families, and
would have it, the revolutionary methods proposed by Rappaport would not be adopted, and much more to the same effect. The Sentinel headlined its report in a sanguinary manner, alluding to Rappaport as a "red-flag orator" and to his talk as "anarchittic utterances," and this seems to have rattled Rappaport out of his usual equilibrium, says the Evening News, for this morning he appeared before 'Squire Feibleman and_ caused a warrant to issue against Mr. W. J. Craig, proprietor of the Sentinel, charging criminal libel. The Sentinel's report of the meeting was appended as the cause of grievance, and Mr. Rappaport alleged that it was "entirely untrue, and tending to injure and defame his good name and reputation, and social standing, and also his business." 'Squire Feibleman states that it is the tirst case of the kind ever filed in his court. The arrest had not been made at the neon hour, but Feibleman said that when it was served Mr. Craig would be permitted to give his own recognizance, and appear at such time as would be convenient for the preliminary examination.
