relation to the supply of hogs for
the current season, showing that the
total number fattcned in the States
named is eight and one-tenth per
cent. less than for the season of
1872, and tue comparative falling off
In each State is as follows; Illinois,

Correspondents in most localities
report that feeders generally have
disposed of all the marketable hogs,
and although there will probably be
some sent forward late in the sea-

LOCKING Up ORE Ard COAL
LANDS UNDER BOGUS
TH1CEG tf

There Is q large and dangerous
class Of swindling speculators against

lands in the newly developed, Sec
tions need to be warned, anv we in.
vite our exchanges in the Southern
and Southwestern States to aid i'm

| have to say concerning them. The
| spectators to whom we refer, having
neither capital nor credit, have, de-
vised a means of specializing in de-
sirable mineral lands, by securing
control of them under bognsaleases.
When new country is openeEl9which
promises rapid development, they
rush in and prospect for the best
veins. Finding such as are likely to
increase in value within reasonable
time, they present themselves either
as capitalists or rs agents of capital
lists, and induce the owners Of the
lands they want to control to give
them long leases of the mineral de-
positS thereon. q wor d3i5s
They agree to assume all therex-
pense of opening the mines, and
providing facilities for the transpor.
tation of the products. and promise
to pay royalty Of ten cents per ton,
or more, on all mineral mined.
The offer seems a fair one, and the
swindler is usually able to so inn
press his victim that the latter read.
lily falls INTO the trap. Should no
have any suspicious, however, his
accommodating capitalists will
cheerfully obligate himself to begin
work within six months or year,
and to take out a certain amount
annually when the mines shall have
been fairly opened. and a given
amount raised. The bargain conclu-
ded, the swindler puts the leasefin
his pocket and goes off. If he is
not under obligations to open the
mines in certain time. he does
nothing to them; if he is. n days

has no intention Of opening the
mines at any time. The lease has
cost him nothing, and he holds it
until the value Of the land shall have
so increased that he can sell it for,
good price to some one who wants
to open the veins and work them.
In the mean time 8 the minerals are
locked up. The owner of the lahd
cannot dispose of them, and heiis

Address to the county Courts.

The Hon. j. NJ Fleming. State,
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton. addresses circular letter to
the County Courts of this State,
from which we extract the following
facts: y
/. Their attention is called to
theapressing demands of the Com
mon Schools interests and to the
39th and 41st. section Of the School
Law. the intent of said law being
that the public schools should be
kept open at least.fi FIVE months each
year. taee-a 2f.t 5-e
2, Reference is made to the fact
that the scholastic year begins Sep.
tember 1st; hence the tax levied in
1873 is not available until 1874,
that of 1874 not until 1875, &c.
Hence the necessity of the County
Court making early provision for
schools.
3. In regard to the County Su-
preintendent, he says: ''The i'm
portance of having a competent,
active County Superintendent. can
hardly be .overestimated. Without
such an officer, all the other officers
will fail to secure a good system of
schools in the county, and a man
fitted for the satisfactory discharge
of the duties of the office cannot be
expected to make uncompensated
sacrifices of his time talents and
labor for the public good"
4. Every county in the State is
organized under the present free
school system.
In addition to the letter of the
State Superintendent, a circular has
also been issued by the State Teach
ers' Association, composed Of teach
ers and friends of education through
out the entire State. This circular
calls upon the various County Courts
for prompt and energetic action in
behalf of public schools.
