Ireland's Agricultural Re sources.

According to the annual return Just
issued by the registrar general of Ire
land, there were, in 1874, 1O,472, 422
acres in Ireland in meadow and pasture,
and $3.50, O04 acres under crops, the
acreage under crops being less by LAP
acres than II 1873. There were 4, $50, :
900 acres of bog and waste bog, being
So, 948 acres less than in the previous
year. The extent of land under wheat

ever before, except in 1873. The num-
Der of sheep was 4.441, 1893, which was

Increase Of Insanity.

There are indications that insanity is
increasing in the United States. Since
the beginning of the present year in
sane asylums in New York and vicinity
have have become greatly overorowded.
The number of patients Of this class
admitted into Bellevue hospital alone
(where they are received temporarily
averaged two day for three months.
Some were afflicted with acute or
chronic dementia, others with melan-
cholia, while not few we're victims of
religious mania. The causes of insanity
are as various as its phases. The ma
jority of cases, however, may be traced
to religious enthusiasm, business or do
nestle troubles, and to intemperance.

Selling at Auction.

A woman was about to move, and con-
vinced her husband that they couldn't
do better than sell off their furniture ct
auction, and buy some more at auction,
maintaining thus the apparently irrecon
cilable theses that (D you can always
get things at an auction for less than
their worth, and (2) that you can always
get more at an auction for things than
they are worth. Accordingly, she dis
posed of her household effects on Fri
day. Saturday she went to another auc-
ton and bought back for 1913 the
girls bedroom set that on the preceding
day sold for $1,000, less charges and
commission. When her husband re
minded her of it, she burst into fl BOD
of tears, and asked him if this was all
the thanks she got for trying to save his
money.

in England by the Romans about A. ID.

rection of Alfred, A. D. 1856. From
that time the use of bricks has been
constant and continuous. The earlier
brick buildings were almost entirely

gradually introduced, and at the begin

Northern tribune. [volume] (Cheboygan, Mich.) 1875-1885, 1876-06-17

We stated few weeks ago, in regard
to the act of Congress by which the Che
boygan and Emmett county reservations
were about to be thrown open to entry,
that there were about 10000 acres of va
cant government land. The editor of
the Traverse City Herald says that he
has made careful examination of the
land office books, and finds that there are
about $4,000, instead of 10000 acres.
This reservation was subject to home
stead entry for one year from March 1st,
1875. Since the 1st of March, 1876, no
entries have been allowed, and many
homestead declarations have expired, the
land again becoming vacant without ad-
vertising. BY recent act of Congress
this whole reservation is to be re-opened
to homestead entry, and the register and
receiver at Traverse City are only wait
ing orders from the department to re-
cciye applications. These will probably
soon reach them, when $4,000 acres OF
the finest lands in Michigan viii DC ready
for settlement. This is the best chance

ANOTHER TALLY.

Cheboygan has just made another tally
IN the onward march of improvement.
Tire bill which was introduced in the
House Of Representatives last fall, MAX
ing Cheboygan port OF entry, has at
last passed the Senate, although in an
amended form, which will necessitate it
going back to the House for its concur
.ance. This, of course, will take some
time, and will delay the actual passage
of the bill. Both Houses of Congress
have now acted upon it, and the express
sion thus rendered, makes the final pas
sage Of the bill certain. The amend
ment added i'm the Senate was simply
rectifying neglect of the House, and re-
peals all former legislation making Dun
can City port of entry. This was rem
dered necessary from the fact that Dun
can City was established as port of en-
try by special act of Congress. The bill
and amendment will now have to 60
back to the House in regular order, and
therefore we cannot expect final pas
sage of the bill for some weeks yet. This
will be of great benefit to Cheboygan
abroad. for it will bring tue place into
prominence, and simply as an advertise
ment will do much good. 1t will bene-
fit the place at home, for it will necessi-
tate the calling of many boats here which
would otherwise not stop, and nearly
all of them will purchase more or less
supplies. A steady pull, and a strong
pull, and pull altogether, will accom-
plish even greater results than this for
Cheboygan.

The TRIBUNE has too often published
the benefits which would accrue to Che
boygan from having dry dock estab-
lished, to need to repeat them at present.
They are obvious to every thinking man.
This season should not pass without an
effort being made to secure the building
of one. The TRIBUNE is not interested
In this enterprise any more than any cit
lien of the place should be. We often
hear persons say, 30, yes, it is what we
need, and somebody should take hold of
the matter. No doubt butt would pay"
Talk is cheap, and is good thing in
its place but talk alone will not bring
us a dry dock or anything else OF benefit.
Action, not words, is what is wanted
now. The present is the time to act,
not tomorrow, next week, or nextmonth.
We do no mean that this man or that
man must do the work. Every one who
has any interest in his own business, or
in the growth of the place, can find some
thing to do. If we do no more than
wait for something to turn up, or for
some one else to do the work that is neces-
sary to secure it. nothing will ever be
accomplished. This year will end just
where last year ended, and no dry dock
commenced. We should enter upon the
work this season with determination
that We will succeed-that men and
money shall be found to come here and
build a dry dock. 1t can be done If we
&c at it in the right manner. 1t can be
done through the medium of the I'm
provement association, if the members
will come forward and DO their duty.
The question is, will they do it,

Ci4EBOYGAN INTERESTS.

1t is q fact which is becoming more
prominent every day that the tendency
of manufacturers is to abandon New
England and other places east, and move
westward. The depressed condition of
business i'm the east makes this very IA
vorable time to present the claims of the
west. This is being done by other places,
and Cheboygan should not be behind
her claims, for i'm fair competition our
superior advantages will secure for us
our full share. We think that Cheboy-
gan might with great advantage take
measures for introducing herself to east
ern men, as an eligible point for manu-
featuring. A short pamphlet. carefully
prepared and arranged, showing the 10
cation, probable growth, natural advan-
tages, its accessibility and cheaphess with
which products can be transported to
and from the place, and the products
of the state which enter so largely into
manufactures. We have no doubt that
much capital could be induced to locate
here. with a proper showing. Other
places are already arranging to do this,
by the means mentioned, or other SINH
lar. Detroit business men are talking
of forming 'citizens' bureau" for the
purpose of imparting information as to
the importance of Detroit as manufac-
turing center. The organization is very
similar to our Improvement association.
Would it not be we'll for our association
to take this into consideration. BY
taking into its hands the proper adver-
Using of the place, the Improvement as
ISOLATION can do great work for the
growth and future of Cheboygan.
