The "Mulley" Breed.

In California and elsewhere the use
lessness of horns on cattle in a domestic
Gated state is being strongly urged.
Mr.. VIM. Clark, of Denver, Col, whose
herd is of the hornless type, thinks
that the latter is sure to prevail in this
country in the end. Here are his rea-
sons:
1. Horns were given to cattle to be
used in fighting-to enable them to de-
fend themselves against dangerous enc
mics. For this purpose they are of
value upon wild cattle. Domestic cattle
have no valuable use for them.
2. The horns upon domestic cattle are
used mostly in goring and injuring each
other. All injuries to animals are paid
for in their diminished growth, or d.
minished flesh, or increased amount of
food consumed.
3. The expense Of growing the horns
is equal to the expense of q like weight
in meat, and they are good for moth
ing.
4. Horns are mere dead weight upon
the heads of the cattle, and the expense
of carrying them about, and warming
and supplying their waste. is paid for
in the food consumed, or the diminished
weight of the animal.
5. Injuries are continually inflicted
by cattle, by the use of their horns,
upon other animals as well us upon the
human race.
Who wants to kiss girl if he
knows she's got to let him and he
knows he's got to do it, and everybody
looking on to see fair play? No, sir,
that takes all the life out of it. The
way to do it is to catch her off hand
and tear the gathers out of her and pull
her ribbons to pieces and knock her
back hair down, aud hear her say
"Oh!' all to yourself, and then go
away to quiet place and think it over.

hair cut, a very unusual proceeding, and
they wear white mems clothes, instead of

do business according to fixed principles Of

THE SILVER BILL.

London, Feb. s.-The Economist eays the
Investment business ia much checked by DO
litical uncertainty. A further relapse in
United States bonds accompanies the in
creased belief in the probability Of lexisla.
ton establishing silver at par. We note,
however, q feeling that ZONE modi6catory
measures will be taken, but in what form
nobody can profess to foretell. which will
prevent any further decline. The adoption
Of a silver currency would probably, though
all forbear ospeak with any certainty upon
that point, by raising the value of silver,
compensate in another way. We
hear it gravely remarked that
no matter what the United States
does in the way of adopting silver in
stead of the gold dollars for bonds, the bal
ance of trade is favorable to the American
and would prevent loss to the bondholder,
just as the foreign holders Of French rente
receives his interest in a full equivalent Of
gold; but in the first place the adoption Of
such a plan would aust so large an imme.
date selling of United States stock that the
national balance of Indebtedness would al.
most Of necessity be against that country
and further, the parallel is complete, for in
France artificial value is given silver by lin.
it put upon its coinage, and no one
can say that in America a limit Of that
kind will be put in operation, Resolutions
favoring silver currency, although distinctly
affecting government bonds, have failed t
produce much movement in the price of sill
yer. We presume the market is to some
extent kept down, because the German gov.
eminent is known to have a large remainder
of silver yet to dispose Of, and the feeling
is that the rise in the price would immedi.
ately bring out these supplies, may be not
without apparent effect upon the price
Silver and plated ware reductions are here

THE DARDAHELLES.
New York Herald.

THIS strait, a~nciently known as the Helles
pont, has taken its present name from the
four forts built at its entrance in the seventh
century-two by Mahomet II. and two BY
Mahomet IN. These were constructed to
proven. the approach of war ships to Con-
stantinople. Put in good condition and
armed With the artillery Of these days, they
, Sould tSs1 Ssvt the S.I pa', rs;,.. Of any n.i ssst'
and might therefore make the preteace Of
the Porte to close the strai: rather more than
q diplomatic curiosity. This pretence has
been recognized by treaties in 1909, lS4l in
in 1856 and in 1871. In 1871 the confer
ence Of London, called in consequence Of
Russis's reputation, in 1870, Of certain
clauses of the treaty of Paris, decreed the
continuation of this restriction rs declared
in the treaty Of Paris, but conceded the
sultan's authority to permit the passage Of
the ships of the friendly powers in time Of
peace. This concession of the %sultan's Eau
thority" in his own dominions indicates
that the closure of the Dardanelles
had in course of time become of greater in
terest to another power than to Turkey, and
it was the consent Of that power-England
that was thus given to the Padishah. In
the circular of 1865, in regard to the pas
sage of the Wabash, the sultan claimed to
exercise this restriction ass territorial right.
1t was in that sense that the treaty of Paris
affirmed the right, as IN ancient one T; but
that treaty even deprived the sultan of the
right of consent in regard to it. There are,
therefore, some rational and legal entangle-
ments that are rather queer. The Darda-
nelles are within the sultan's territory but
they are closed, not by his will, but by the
will Of a remote naval power, and yet that
power does not exercise authority there as
it might by mere force on the high seas, but
constitutes the sovereign sultan the execu.
tive of its will and though it is not ready
to fight for the maintenance of this right it
calls out on Europe to maintain it and not to
let victorious Russia encroach therein, be-
cause this would be a violation of the privi-
leges of that poor old sultan.
