B. F.

Because an increase of taxation on rhiskv may swell tlie coffers of the individuals who have cornered that #ry JLuid is uo reason why tlie pro1 ncreate should not be made r-potnocro ts can conceive no hotter method of restoring the rovetitie that Miiost be sacrificed by the repeal of tho McKinley law than by making tho consumers of distilled liquors bear the burden of federal taxation. Tue republicans seem bound to I pave Die demociats nothing to rcF ceipt. for whon they assume charge of 'the TJnUcd States treasury. It is sometime since tlie victors so efficaciously cleaned up the spoils as did the present administration. If they’ll (inly leave clean balances, however, Mr. Cleveland is amply able to look out for the future. He has demonled his ’financial ability before. Hon. A. P.

He iancarefully ciuiVHMtM^the matter and after nature deliberation has come lotn.it coneludon which he taye la final.—Tell City Newt. The Courier think* that Congressnan Taylor it acting for the best inerects of the public and the democratic par'y by deciding now whom he will recommend for the various ;><>sioffices in the j^lrst congressional listrict. Under any circumstances here urg^ertain lo bo disappointments, but there will be a minimum ol hose if the selections he intends to recommend are made promptly, There can be little doubt that if Mr. Taylor were lo leave the question open there would be a doien applicants, at least, for every presidential postoffico in the district. In deciding this early,1 as he lire done, who shall have the postoffices in Tell City, gvsnsville .and probably the other presidential offices, Mr. Taylor lies also disposed of annoyances and iinporiuniiles that would have taken up ill of bis time for (lie first twelve months of hisSerm had he loft'thcm ■pen. Tho custom among the members of the new congress has become pretty genera! to dispose of all patronage as quickly ns possible so that ibeir entire time when congress meets may bo given to the transaction ol 'ho public business. Tbecuslomjhat has prevailed during the republican era of converting the offices of United Stales Senator and representatives into itu office broker's calling' will be completely abolished under democratic administration of affairs. No mau can be a good congressman or a good senator who devotes ali' of his time or any considerable part of his time to the office brokerage business. The fact is, members of congress and ol the senate ought lo be relieved absolutely frem this sort of service.—Eoanaville Courier.

Farmers’ Institute. Tlio tliini annual meeting of tlio farmers' institute of Piky county was in seswon at'itie court liotisu last Friday and Saturday, Tlio attendance | on oilier day wan not what it* | sliouldlmv.B been, there not being lover one hundred present at any otie lime. These 'institute* should be largely attended by the farmers as much is to he gained in the ucw inethods ari*ing from the new Inventions and the change in climate. In point of Interest taken this lias been the best instituteof the series held in tbo | count.1, and the president, JljUv Leslie j i Lamb, is to lie congratulated on the successof the.meeting. The session ' was opened up Friday morning with | devotional exercises by! Key. W- G. I Law. After the opening exercises L. B. Ouruler, of Patoka township,'delivered the address of welcome, which was responded to by Hon. James KreUtzinger, ofHovey, Posey county. The p real (lent announced <bat the first paper oii the program “Economy —Its Use and Abuse,” would be read by Mrs. Frank' Kime. The paper was a practical one and gave many hints to the farmer and the farmer’s wife upon" t|m economy tjial should bo used on the farm, and in some instances the abuse that is made of oconomy. This closed tho forenoon scsssion. After tliedlnncr hour lion, Robert Mitchell, of Princeton, talked at some length on small fruits and vegetables for shipment io Chicago during the world's fair, "ilia talk was very interesting and gave the farmer and gardener many new ideas of how to make money on a comparatively email '■piece of ground, and how he can dispose of his products during the coming season. In his talk lie gave some very interesting facts in regard io transplanting and how to get an early start 1st vegetable raising. In the discussion of this subject Hon. James Kreutzinger and Mi's. Sarah Ash took part. It was shown that while strawberries was a monev-mak- j incr crop, they were too short1 a crop, t$omo thought tlio vegetable market might be overstocked. Tlie discussion of the subject was rather spirited. Tho next subject on the afternoon program was that of Col. W. A. Oliphani on “Brow Sweat va. Brain Sweat,” tlio paper being read by his daughter Miss Addie. The- subject was well handled and gave evidence of much thought and study. Miss Addie must share the honors with the colonel in ‘this for the marked ability shown iu reading Ike paper. Mr. Kreutzinger took up the subject of ‘Wheat Culture.” Among tlie many points made were: that wheat should be sown during the last week In September or tho first week in October; soil should be thoroughly pulverized and rolled; the plows should never bo stopped for dry weather, and as soon as the ground is ready sow tho wheat regardless of the dry ground] not in favor of s drag as it does not pack the ground sufficiently; prefers the new roller seeder to any other now made, as it covers up tho seed when drilled. He also favors the antpraci system of threshing as it does away with many of iho old inconveniences and is much cheaper. He also suggested in Wheat sowing to give the seed a hot bath of from three to four minutes. In lliC discussion which was rather lively Robert Mitchell, Jackson Ferguson, Enibree Lamb, Gianvide Carlisle, Mrs. Sarah A»h and others took an active part, and many excellent points were brought out.

The last subject of the afternoon was taken pp by Robert Mitchell, ■ who read a most excellent paper on , “Sheep Husbandry.” Mr. Mitchell deals quite extensively in sheep and being well posted on the subject gave many practical ijnd useful hints on : &U branch of stock raising. “From > experience,” he said, “there is money in sheep. They are easily taken care i of and bring large returns for the i money invested.” In the discussion ' I. II. Lett, Mrs. Ash and William Kelso took a prominent part. This closed the first day's session. The Institute opened Saturday i morning with the subject “Indiana at I the World’s Fair.” This was assigned ■ to Mr. Mitchell, but as he oould not be present Willlutn Kelso and Embree I.amb took up the subject and discussed it at some length. Hon. James Krcuizinger having been assigned the subject of “Corn Culture,” read an excellent paper. He advanced several new ideas on the 1 planting and taking care of seed, ' the piaiuand the attention that should bo given It. This subject brought | forth an argument, and the discussion , Jasted for sometime. Prominent I among those who took part in the discussion were Mrs. Sarah Ash, Jackson Ferguson, Einbreo Lamb, Mr. Dean, Leslie Lamb and Messrs. Hart hay, Davidson, §tuekey, Oursler and Morton. Dr. I. II. Lamar read a carefnllv prepaired paper on the “Sanitary Coiio ultlon of Ilouao and Surroundings.” This was one among the best papers read and gave many valuable hints and suggestions about the care of the human system, the home, the yards and e*pecU.I|y th« barn lots. The ' doctor, also gave some excellent suggestions as to tho proper use of water and Ihe construction of cisterns and wells. This concluded the fowboonis work ^ “Better Country R«ad»,’! was tho subject assigned to Hon. M. L. Haa*hroan and was the first on the program for the afternoon sessions Mr. ; Heath man lias had considerable cxj perioiiicc as a legislator and knows > the needs of improvements in Pike County. lie is not in favor of the proseut road-working system nuder supervisors, birt is heartily in favor j ; of taxation to keep up the roads.

Mrs. Sarah Ash then read a paper on “The I’aat, Present and Future of Agriculture tn Indiana." Mrs. A eh took up the early pioneer life in Pike county and compared it with that of todav: the increase and decrease of crops i the methods of farming in the pant and of the present. The. paper was very interesting from the fact that Mrs. Ash is one of the pioneers and being a close observer of the many changes that have taken place, was well able to handle the subject which had been assigned her. In discussion of tliis subject Messrs Tucker, Lett, Oliphanl, Nichols, Stuckey and j’atterson took part » Mrs. Frank Kime, by request, re. read the paper “Economy—Ita Use and Abuse,” which she delivered the day p.evious. ’-L.. George Tucker took up the subject “Speculation in Farm Products,” which had been assigned him. Mr. Tucker da a ready speaker and delivered a masterly address on this question which was listened to with by marked attention^ This ended the program for the farmers' institute and alter a few preliminary remarks by the president the Institute adjourned* after voting their thanks to The Democrat and Press for the interest taken in the promotion of the farmers' institute.
