EEE Raimng Sheep aud Dealing Dogs. With the almost certainty that the mext Congress will rai e the duty on wool, there is manifest in dif- ferent sections a revived interest gm sheep husbandry. We are in- - debted to the Charleston News and Courier for the information , thala clab of farmers ia Columbia county, Ga, has written to stock @esler in North Carolina for prices on high breeds of sheep, and they will soon order the ne- -eessary stock for the venture in sheep and wool-growing which they contemplate, Along with this information comes the inter- esting statemont that the entire woo! product of Georgia is not ene-tenth that of North Carolina which proclaims Georgia far be- hind in the business, for certainly North Carolina has not much to brag of in the extent of this in- terest. In this, as in every other Southern State, the dog is the ever-present menace which has diseouraged the business. The News and Courier thinks the fear from this source is over-estimated; that disaster to the flock from _dogs, need not necessarily result “Indeed, it says: “We have recently been inform- ed that there are 500 sheep in oup flock on a farm not many miles from Charleston, and that they are not much troubled either by dogs or by wildcats from the neighboring swamps. The ex- planation given of this marvel is simply that strychnine 1s cheap, and the owner of the flock keeps asupply on hand. He inspects his flock in the woods every day, acd when he finds a dead one, killed by a dog or cat, he loads the carcass with some of the powder and goes about his busi- ness. He never shoots a dog,itis said, bot the number of dead ones he has found in. his pasture since he began business is “some- thing surprising,” and his sheep : are seldom molested now.” E Here, indeed, isa remedy for the dog evil which beats all the laws—especially the laws which ‘gre never enacted. The sheep- killing dog is .an Outlaw whom any man finding may slay; the South Carolina plan is heroic and it it should accomplish two bene- fits—increase te number of sheep and do it at the expense of the - dogs—we shall be prepared to ad- mit that a protective tariff is not gu cnmixed evil—Charlotte Ob- ~gporver. aon ante ae pana“ me With f ee ee ea - Elam Bussell, weight 200 _ pounds, of Plaintield, Ind., is the ‘pourd papa of a 10-inch baby h weighed one puund and a ite birth, and at the end of reeks weighed three pounds rs, Russell’s weight is 159 : * one . i J |. 6.)

Maceo, the insurgent leader, had been killed. While there were different ac- counts of the killing, people were slow to believe the reports from the. fact that it had been given out'so many times before that he was dead. Bui the report is now confirmed by particulars of the affairs which shows that Maceo was dealt with treacherously and foully murdered. Not being able to capture him and defeat the in~ surgents, the acting Captain Gen- eral made overtures for peace to him and invited him to a confer- ence to arrange terms. Maceo ac- cepted the invitation and pro- ceeded to the appointed place of meeting. Instead of making the preposition in good. faith, the acting Captain General used it as a meaus of entrapping Maceo, for when he reached the place ap- pointed for the conference, he and his escort were fired upon from ambuch and murdered by Spanish soldiers who had been secreted for that purpose. Such a dishonorable and dia- bolical deed has served to make sympathy for Cuba all the stroger among Americans. ‘he occur- rence is adisgrace to the Spanish goyernment. The United States ought to interfere at oncs and by recognizing the Cubans as belig- erants put a stop to such butch- eries as has been practiced by the Spaniards. ( a sermon sonemsernr It appears that in tho special election in Jackson ceunty, Tues: day, for a member of the Legisla ture, to vote off the tie between Messrs. Moore, Democrat and Ensley, Republican, the Populists generally voted for Mr. Ensley, who was elected, and who will vote for Mr. Pritchard, goldite, candidate for the Senate, whereas Mr. M:-ore would have voted for a free s..ver man.
