The great democratic victory in the
New York election last Tuesday
means a great deal. It means that
the divisions of tlie party in New York
city over local aspirations are not
powerful enough to bring disaster
and defeat when the heart of the dem
ocracy is in unison with the head of
the party at Washington. It demon
strates that tiie electoral vote of the
State of New York is as certain to be
cast for Grover Cleveland for Presi
dent in 1888 as the day of choosing a
President shall come. It demonstrates
that, tile National Republican party
is already defeated. That party saw
tiie necessity of carrying New York
this year to encourage their own and
dispirit the forces of their old enemv.
II ence they nominated Grant's son
for tiie most important office then to
be voted for, a man whose only quali
fication for the office of Secretary of
Stat<*, or as a popular leader, was that
lm was the son of the “Savior of the
l liion." But the card, adroitly and
desperately played, did not win. II
demonstrates further that the Repub-
-licAn party will see the folly of run
uing a candidate' for the Presidency on
a mere name or sentiment, and that
their last arid only hope is to choose
a man from civil life who has display
ed some degree of statesmanship in
the National councils. If they do not
do this, then they will run Foraker
who lias just been re-elected Governor
of Ohio, or a man like him, and plant,
him squarely on a “bloody shirt”
platform. Blaine, nor Sherman, nor
Edmunds, nor Allison, nor Hawley
will entirely tit that platform. Noth
ing but tiie “old flag'' and the bloody
shirt remain to the Republican party,
and if they take it and go into.the
light on these two ideas, Cleveland
will bury tiie party out of sight, wrap
ped in the bloody shirt for a shroud.
Tiie Republican party in the elec
tions of last, Tuesday would have glad
ly given the democrats Ohio, Iowa,
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania to
have defeated tiie Democracy in New
York. Indeed, tiie Democracy of
New York had to contend against the
Republicans in every one of these
States, and they are just as badly
whipped in all these States as they
are in New York.
To Governor Hill tiie Democracy qf
the Union are mainly indebted, next
to Cleveland’s popularity, for this
great national victory.

Washington Letter,
From Our lingular Correspondent
Washington, Nov. 8, 1887.
Editors Union Recorder:
Among tiie prominent democratic
members of the House who have ar
rived tit the Capital, i may mention
tin* Hon. R. P. Bland, of Missouri,
who is often referred to as “Silver
Bland,'' on account of the leading
part taken by him in the legislation
that authorized tin* coinage of the
“dollar of our daddies," and also be
cause on nil occasions tiie steadfast
friend and champion of silver. Mr.
Bland gives his views as to the proba
ble course of legislation in tiie Fifti
eth Congress, lie thinks a compro
mise tariff bill will pass, and that it
will include the repeal of the tobacco
tax ; he believes that the tariff should
be reduced #100,000,000 ; the free list
should be largely increased and there
should be a reduction of duties on
other imports. He thinks there will
be no financial legislation except in so
far as tariff legislation affects the 11-
nances.
Tiie question of changing tiie time
of the meeting of Congress, is again,
as well as the terms of tiie members,
being agitated, and there are number
less advocates in tiie affirmative, while
on tiie other hand, tiie dissentients
can be counted on one's fingers. 1
linve vet to see a convincing reason
why Congress should meet, as it does
at present, thirteen [months after the
election of its members, blit, oil tiie
contrary, there are many grave ob
jections to the system now in vogue,
among which I may mention that
Congressmen should coma fresh from
the people; that their .successors
should not be elected until tiie in
cumbents serve out their first term ;
that the present custom is antagonis
tic to tiie progressive spirit of the age,
Congress now meets on tiie first Mon
day in December, and before that
body gets fairly to work, an adjourn
ment for the holidays is in order.—
Wiiy should not Congressmen, like
most oilier elective officials, begin
their duties on the first of tiie year
and be paid per annum.
Tiie theory of States’ rights Inis cer
tainly received substantial encour
agement from the decision of the Uni
ted States Supreme Court in the Chi
cago Anarchist c ises, and 1 doubt not,
if such a tiling lie possible, that the
spirit of the great Calhoun hovered
jubilantly over the historical and e-
ventful scene that in a measure vin
dicated the constitutionality of his
distinctive doctrine of the reserved
rights of the States in tiie Federal
compact. But, however that may he,
I believe tiie verdict, on its merits, is
generally applauded as just and right
eous.
A young newspaper correspondent
of tiiis city took advantage of the oc
casion to send a sham “infernal ma
chine" to Chief Justice Waite—ma
king tiie impression that it was tv
scheme of tiie friends of the Anarch
ists, for revenge on tiie Court. The
reckless youth made a sensation in
the Capital, but tiie sequel was his
confinement in the gloomy cell of tiie
police station until bailed out.

No. XI.
Protecting Land From Washing.
It is not to bo expected that a ten
ant will feel the same interest in tiie
future welfare of land as the owner
does. Tiie former feels that tiie ten
ure is uncertain and ids chief con
cern is to get all lie can out of the land
now, without much regard to itn fu
ture condition. To get, one golden
egg the ordinary tenant of land is
quite willing to sacrifice tiie tradi
tional goose. He is not apt to bestow
any labor on ditching it or preventing
worthless weeds from going to seed
on it. He is not overcareful as to get
ting his rows run on tin* horizontal
nor is lie particularly mindful about
plowing the land‘when it is too wet
except as it may work damage to tin*
present crop. Under the miserable
tenant system tliat prevails in tin*
South is if. to lie wondered at that a
good proportion of our lands are so
gullied and impoverished that it is
impossible to grow profitable crops on
them. Neglect in taking tiie proper
precautionary steps to prevent the
washing of land lias not by any
means been confined to tenants.
Among the landowners themselves,
both large and small, there were only
ft few comparatively here and there
who seemed to regard it as an impor
tant matter. In tiie past few years,
however, tiie subject has been freely
and intelligently discussed in tiie Ag
ricultural papers and in the Clubs,
and something of an impetus has been
given to tiie ditching and terracing of
rolling lands among tiie more intelli
gent farmers. Practical essays have
been written on tiie subject; cheaper
levelling instruments have been de
vised and put on sale, and doubtless
in the past three years more ditching,
draining and terracing lias been done
in this State than bail been done in
twenty years preceding. A very small
fraction of what ought to be done lias
been dbne, however. There are thou
sands of acres in Baldwin county,
and in every other county where tiie
laud is as rolling as Kris in this, where
the gullies are gradually, yet steadily
widening and deepening, and down
which the heavy raius are as gradual
ly carrying tiie liner and bettor parts
of tiie surface soil, (cutting tip a field
into little patches, which, sooner or
later, perhaps, are to bo consigned to
tiie tender mercies of pine saplings
and sedge.) where little or no effort is
being made to mitigate the evil conse
quences of heavy rains. After gullies
have been allowed to form tiie diffi
culties in the way of proper ditching
and terracing is very greatly increased
of course, but are not inseparable.
At tiie first clearing of the land it Was
a simple matter to provide for tiie
protection from washing, to leave un-
plowed horizontal strips 4 to 10 feet
wide with narrow ditches on tiie low
er side of these strips. After washes
are started it will requireconsideruble
labor to restore tiie level of these low
places to the terracing strips or em
bankments. Rocks or pine brush or
other material will have to be freely
used at the lower part of tiie gully
where it intersects with the horizon
tal ditcli and strip (or “baulk” as the
English term it). A fall of 3 or 3) feet
allowed between each horizontal
ditcli and strip. These strips that oc
cur between tiie “lands” should nev
er be plowed. On land that is only
MORAL CONDUCT.
Some Searching Questions and Con
clusive Answers.
How does physical welfare effect
moral conduct?
This question is agitating the minds
of tiie best men of our country.
Judges, scientists, legislators are dis
cussing ft in private, as well as the
workingmen, the bankers, and the
clorg
Our country, like the rest of the
world, is fast tilling up with men hav
ing anarchical ideas, and with other
soelal and political extremists.
May not our morbid tendencies
come from disease of the mind, caused
by disease of tlie body? Are they not
due to some deranged organ, which,
in its enfeebled state, diffuses poison
through tin* system, thus affecting the
brain?
It is a long, established fact tliat
bodily disease causes most cases of in
sanity ami “softening of tiie brain.”
The medical profession claims that
the kidneyRare the principal health-
insuring organs oftho body. If they
are diseased they do not perform then-
proper functions and expel tin* pois
onous matters. If these are retained
and recirculated through the system
they produce most of our common de
rangements.
We have published in our columns,
from time to time, remarkable ac
counts of restoration to health from
all manner of disease (even of insani
ty, caused as above (dated) by the use
of Warner’s safe eftre. There is no
doubt that tills is the most popular
remedy offered for sale, and from the
very best information we can obtain,
tiie sale of it continues to increase.
Why is tills?
Public sentiment as a rule, is a fair
and just criterion. We find this safe
cure in the largest cities, and in tiie
most remote parts of the world. Its
merits are proclaimed by the consum
ers, as well ns the vendor*. Miss Car
rie L. Wallis of Beverly, Mass., is re
ported to have been desperately ill
from general female derangements for
years, and to have been restored to,
and kept in excellent health by this
wonderfully popular remedy, and
Miss Lillie Stephens of !22‘) Third
street, Louisville, Ky., was raffled by
It from her death-bed, when her phy
sicians said she was incurable.
A prominent gentleman, high in of
ficial position, said to us tiie other
day, tliat if he was governor, and a
petition for pardon was presented to
him, he would require a thorough in
vestigation, us to tiie physical health
of tiie criminal at the time tlie crime
was committed. In view of such facts
the recommendations of such a rfetn
edy are well worth consideration.
Tiie solution of the relation o
moral conduct to physical health,
ought to be well established in the
minds of ail, and our statesmen
should be prepared to meet tiie issues
growing out of it when they appear.

should not be regarded. Some vaiuu
ble forage crop may be established
upon them and mowed from time to
time. It is no use to discuss any oth
er plan for protecting from washing.
This is the plan, the only plun that is
effective and rational. One need not
expect to perfect it in one season.
Timely work on defective portions
will soon establish a perfect terrace.
Where weeds take possession of the
“baulks,” (let us adopt tiiis term in
lieu of strips,) they should be mowed
down before seeding, so as not to foul
tiie land.
As our lands increase in value, of
course more attention will be given to
their improvement and preservation,
but we can very greatly enhance the
productive capacity and money value
of our own separate farms by prompt
ly resorting to this comparatively in
expensive but effective mode of {ire-
serving tiie cultivated area from
waste.
It is not necessary that every farm
er shall own a level. A half-dozen or
more in a neighborhood can own one
in common and one farmer, more ex
pert with the level, might be employed
to run the lines and set the stake for
all the rest. A good level can be had
now for about #5, and when much
levelling is to be done, and as the
work is to be a permanent improve
ment, it will be true economy to use a
level and if possible get a man with a
practical knowledge of the subject of
terracing to use it for you.
There is considerable work of this
kind that can bo done about the farm
by a practical farmer who is practised
in running horizontal rows without
resorting to a level at all. (More of
i tiiis, however„at another time.)
