IL smbarrassments, proposes through
this Edmunds bill 70 establish Q siBk.
Ing fund q follows:
1. Govsfnment lands to bs reoon4
veyed and estimated ct Govern.
ment valuation I'll. $50. 00o
4 Government transportation 70
January lst. 1875. .......... l,000.0 00
3. Surplus received By the com. -.
pany for public lands-say.-.. 10000
zee. Sl3.0 900. 900
The above amount, as we read the
bill, II to 60 into the fund % cash, and
Of course the interest on the company
debt 70 the Government will b de-
creased BY the interest on that amount.
An estimate IL then to b made Of the
ssmaining amount TO be due at maturi-
y. and the company proposes to pay
semi annually such sums ~ will rom
der the totsl equal to the lien, all Gov
ernment transportation to bs credited
70 the fund. In tho meanwhile the
Government IL not TO release it, mort
gage lien until 1t be satisfied.
This measure will undoubtedly re-
dound to the advantage Of tho Central
Pacific, but Il will also, in our opinion,
DO to the interests Of the Government
and Of the State Of Nevada. The United
States can not possibly lose BY the bill
ave 10 the extent OF "a over valuation
Of the public lands to b reconveyed.
and We must remember that the Gov.
eminent has itself nxed the valuation
Of q 50 per acrs-upon which val.
uation the rsconvsyancs Is esti.
mated = upon all contiguous lands
bordering on the railroad. It
may b On over estimate, but
the Government has made It and
should abide BY it. Moreover, We are
strongly Of the opinion that before the
death Of the Nineteenth century Il will
prove "a under estimate.
One other consideration. Suppose
this bill should b rejected, and the
Csatral Pacific, while protected by the
Supreme Court in the enjoyment Of its
franchise, should, within the mex If
teen years, DO obliged to make such
arrangements In the conduct Of it, A.
fairs - would enable It to meet this
enormous claim. Can We doubt what
course the gigantic corporation would
pursued Would they not, In self do
fense, b forced to increase the tariff on
freights and fares to the utmost limits
permitted by the law and thus estab-
lish . reserve fund Of their own whore.

Why, the people, end the material in

We object TO unjust discrimination
In the railroad tariff; but We would
more strongly object 70 . more or

which would, Of necessity, result
from . rejection OF the Edmund's
bill. The Central Pacific is and for
eight years has been . great national
highway. Ifa burden be necessary to

protest against the burden being laid
entirely on the Pacific States and au-

Cape Cod Village.

AS nearly as one can ascertain in q
residence of few hours. there are but
two streets in Provincetown which in
any other New England town would be
dignitied with that title. They appear
to run parallel to each other, but care
full investigation is necessary to veri-
fication of that supposition. Indeed,
the popularity which strikes stranger
most forcibly is the absence of streets
such as one is used to. The two to
which allusion has been made are mar
row and crooked, indeed; but the cross
streets are in most cases wide enough
only for the passage of one wagon. and
III many cases they are open Mt but one
end. The main street. narrow and wind
ing, the houses irregular and low in
most cases, and the plank sidewalk of a
different grade every feet or so. But,
after all, it is pleasant old street to
stroll through. especially at night. when
there is a clear view of the moonlit har-
Dor, with its fleet of fishing vessels.
On pleasant evening the shops are all
open and lighted, and their keepers
stand mt the old-fashioned half-loors
and gossi p with their customers in Just
such Il way as to remind one Of the
descriptions he has read of old French
and Dutch fishing towns. Above the
main street, and not far distant, is the
second street in importance, and is oc-
cupied almost entirely by dwellings.
1t is between these two thoroughfares
that the strange passage-ways that serve
as streets run.

PRoF1T OF PoULTRY.-With 60

PROFIT OF PoULTRY.-With good
management the cost Of keeping fowls
should not exceed fifty cents each per
annum; and there is no reason why hens
Of fair average quality should not pro-
duce from three to four eggs per week
throughout the year. Some breeds are
capable of better results than this. Mrs.
Daniel johnson, of Rockland county,
n. Y, got an average about equal to
this during last Winter, though the sea-
son was exceptionally severe, and rea-
lized three dollars per hundred for the
eggs. This would give profit for
the year of about four dollars for
each fowl. When the value of the
manure is added to this, it shows rate
of profit which, in almost any other
business, would be deemed incredible.
Yet such cases as this, though rising
above the general average, are by no
means unusual. With poultry, as with
other stock, one Of the conditions OF sue
cess is rariety IN feeding. But variety
is not necessarily costly. There are
some combinations of feed that tend to
increase the production of eggs, which
are even more economical than a single
kind.

PERFECTLY Yesterday
morning when man entered his house
after an all-night's absence, his clothes
covered with blood and his hair full OF
grass, his wife sternly demanded:
"Now, then. where have you been?'
"Wirivi bin! p
eyes, sir"
"Well," he replied, looking down at
himself, "you kin call it blode up on a
steamboat, or run over by tornado;
amt bit partickler which,"

Now AND THEN.-She used to meet
him at the gate with a kiss, and smile
like morning light. But now she comes
to the door in dingy calico wrapper,
and shoes down at the heel, shades her
eyes with her hand, looks earnestly, to
make sure it is he, and as he walks up
to the house, tired and careworn, in
quires, with voice that seems to need
oiling, "Did you bring that butter?"
The Vancouver independent. (Vancouver, W.T. [Wash.]) 1875-1910, 1876-01-08

He WAS PUzzLED.--A family living on
Cass Avenue found good thickness of
cream on some milk that had been stand
ing over night, and when the milkman
made his usual call the pleased house
wife exhibited the cream, and said:
81 never expected 10 see this"
The man looked at the cream, wipked
wisely and solemnly, scratched his head,
and replied:
"Well, don't know what ais it, but
you can throw it out, and I'll give you a
fresh pint in its place"
The Vancouver independent. (Vancouver, W.T. [Wash.]) 1875-1910, 1876-01-08

THE following IS u moderate specimen
of political oratory in the West:
"Build worm fence around the
Winters supply of Summer weather,
skim the clouds from the sky with a
teaspoon, catch thunder cloud in a
bladder, break a hurricane to harness,
ground-sluice an earthquake, lasso an
avalanche, pin napkin on the crater of
an active volcano-but never expect to
see me false to my principles!'
The Vancouver independent. (Vancouver, W.T. [Wash.]) 1875-1910, 1876-01-08

STATISTICAL. "A Third street boy
of ten desires to inform the public that
a common umbrella will not sustain the
weight of a common boy. He mounted
to the shed roof yesterday, spread the
umbrella, and amid the hurrah of a
group OF boys he leaped off. He went
down like lead, and when he came to
his senses the boys were trying to pull
him out Of an ash-box by the hair OF the
head.
