FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1886.;
Tpi milder weather will piit he
ploughs into the ground and with hard
work a more cheerful spirit will prevail
and the outlook will become better, Let
us loohftihe hard times squarely in the
face, and the more discouraged, we feel
the more diligently apply ourselves to
pur calling. Industry, economy and
care will wo'k out success for all of us
in the end. Nothing is more depressing
than idleness.

Ma. William Do&shmmbk, who has
been fori tome time district attorney! for
the southern district of New York and
editor olf the Star, a most excellent met-,
ropolitan democratic, daily, has resigned
. his office) in order to apply himself ex
clusively to his duties as editor. . Hi
1 does well. No man can satisfactorily to
- himself serve two such jealous mistresses
- as.the law and journalism, and in choos-i
ing the latter, Mr. Doraheimer has taken
the better part, for, viewed in its true
light," there can be' no loftier secular
calling than that of the journalist, none;
with greater power for good or evil and
nolle therefore of greater responsibility
" ' ' '! 1 m -;' J
Elsxwhzrx we print the valuable ex
perience; of a New York farmer in the
matter ef sub-soiling and the making
and application of manures. ' Under the
changed agricultural conditions we hare
1 now to meet, we must adopt to a greater
extent than ever before Northern meth
ods. Intensive farming must bo our
' object, as .a rule, and whatever bears
thereon should be studied with care and
applied as fir as possible. "Little farms
well tilled" are what wo want now,
rather than the great plantations of the
old system. These latter no longer
laugh back harvests for the mere scratch
ing of their surfaces. , i

.Qumj seems to have settled down
. upon Seattle and we hope it will stay
there , now indefinitely! The Chinese
hare concluded to seek a cooler clime
and thus remove the casus belli. Where
; are the jpoor creatures to go, though t
' The whole West is as much down upon
,- them as Seattle, though lees violently
so. Thej'r will .have to make up their
- minds to the faet that the whole country
is unhealthy for them, though the law.
v should protect them from outrage as it
does all others who eome under its op
'y eration and they will hare to return V
- that empire of. theirs which they para
doxicallv call celestial though it is upon
the earth, and stay there.

r most determined opposition, is now up
; in New ( York for examination, charged
1 " with getting his franchise by the whole
. sale oriberj of aldermen. Strange to
i say, hejhas forgetten all about the whole
matter if the franchise,' doesn't remem:
ber how he disbursed a fund of a million
! dollars bpent to secure it, kept no books
- or aoeounti qr memoranda or, an y kind,
' and all that ort of thing, Which is a
.peculiarly sharp trick, . but having been
tried before mav not avail to get Mr.
' Sharp lout pff the clutches of certain.
sharp Uwyers Wbb have been employed
to prosecute him. Chief among these is
Mr. Roscoe Conkling, who was sharp
, enough; to quit tho leading place he held
in thei Republican party before the
, downfall of that party, and who may
therefore reasonably be supposed to be
; sharp enough, to deal 1 successfully even
L with Jake Sharp. ( ?
Thb j New York World announced
, with confidence that Attorney-General
Garland would certainly resign his place
in the cabinet, being moved thereto by
conskUrations urged by the President;
w ho. strongly disapproved of his cenneo
t UbnTvwith the Pan-Electric telephone
, company, but it appears uowf upon bW
ter authority than the World, that the
Attorney-General has not tendered bU
resignation to the President, and that
the President has never intimated that
his resignation was desired. Wethought
as much. The .World's seal m behalf
of " the Bell monopoly, some 'people
say, has outrun its discretion and led it
"T into the most unfortunate misstatements
and insinuations of corruption against
officials known of all
to be above hub-
picionj and; as "clear
fices"! as the lieht
in their great'of-
of day. Still Mr.
Garland would do well to throw awaj
his Pan-Electric stock.

Wcwks are coming to the front ambng-
tne strikers in the Pennsyl rami eokt-
regions. A Bridgeport, it is reported,
a mob of Hungarian amosons caugjit a
man loading coke. They made a rush
. for hiiiii, armed with clubs, and tho'maii'
took refuge in a shaft. The . women
then surrounded 1 the engineer at the
shaft and compelled him to bring the
fugitive to the surface. When ' the lati
ter appeared the women seised him and
compelled him to kneel in the street and
take an oath to do no more work until
his striking brethren accompanied him
At Bessemer also a striker, arrested for
stealing pillars fr6i$amine was resouod
, from j an officer by women. There is
little, pro spect by the way of an end to
the troubles of these eokers. The coke
, syndicate has ordered a general shut
down until the strike shall hare ended
and the strikers sajr they ean hold out
' as Uwf as the operatives ho ftp wil
ing to work at the rates offered. Mean
time, though, consider the distress that is
likely to result from this complication.
Uo.w many innocent people will have to
suffer because of , the failure of labor and
capital in this instance to come to terms!
tlow much easier it in always to reach
an adjustment through whatever mutual
concessions may be necessary! ' .

tho; subject of civil service reform, as
given to a reporter of the Brooklyn

the, view of the y 'administration demo

take it that every sound democrat is an

as 5. supporting; the President rejhave

It happened, according to the teati

A person who was a revenue officer,
under the last administration but who
had been bowed out of office, encounter
ed a wagoner on the road and demanded
that he stop and, submit to have his
wagon searched. The driver stopped,
whipped out his revolver and told the
fellow to drop right down and pray.
The victim is known as a fluent cUsserj
but he has no reputation as a leader in
public prayer, lie flopped dov n, never

made him pray loud enough for the
neighbors to hear him, and Kept him at
it until he had about made up for all
the time he had lost from devotional

made him tret up and search the wagon,
and after allowing him te drop over the

on. It was a clear case of the joker
