THE MULLER BILL.

Congressman Mailer introduced bill to-
day having for its object the establishment of
Mint in New York. In other words the
country is called upon to pay nearly million
dollars for the establishment of new Mint,
when the MINIS already built are being
closed for the want of bullion to run on.
There is also a move to stop the coinage
of silver and what next Secretary Sherman
will do no one can tell He has used his
Office to crafty petty spites, and his action
toward the Carson Mint is simply because of
a personal feeling he has against Senator
Jones from the fact that he was the father of
the silver BILL Doubtless the establishment
of Mint in New York is contemplated with
the idea Of furnishing an excuse to close up
the ONE in Carson. 1t is to be hoped that
Congress will see the folly of going to the un-
necessary expense of putting a Mint in New
York when there is one Carson which with
an appropriation of s., 900 to finish the new
addition began last Fall, could be made to
coin 81, 900, 900 year in gold and silver.
Congress should send this Muller bill to OBJ
livion and recognize the fact that Sherman is
unfit for the Office which he holds.

GEORGE GoRHAM will be the Washington

ham' keen insight into political affairs coupled
with his marked ability as a writer will be
much more satisfactory to the public than the

the same position. The APPEAL will also re-

THE Nevada papers write commnnl cations
70 themselves now, asking why Thanksg wing
Day is 40 called and when It was inaugurated
together with other questions pertinent there
to- The Encyclopedia is then brought int
requisition, and the answer copied. 1t makes
a very readable local -SGcrdmento Bee.
This system has been long in vogue in
offices where editors wish to display their
erudition. On one occasion the CAL and
Chronicle each had an article about St. Val
entines day copied verbatim from the same
Encyclopedia. This method of dealing with
great questions is considered perfectly legt-
innate. 1t is a common thing for editors to
write letters to themselves when they desire an
endorsement or wish under such gulse to
attack rival. This is also considered legit-
innate, but the writer's of such letters should
be able to SO sink their style Of writing that no
one will be able to detect the fraud. Other
wise the asses ears stick out and the effort
proves lamentable failure.

Salt.for Poultry.

The question as TO whether salt is injuri-
GUS to poultry, has often been mootcd. The
Country Gentleman says:
To get at the true facts, have been feed,
ing salt to all my poultry. young aud old
alike, and closely watching the result. |
have fed it in cold mush and hot in bran
and everything else, all the spring and sum-
mer with the following result: The poultry
will eat all kinds of salted food in preference
to uusaltod; they arc better in general
health; not louise Of any kind in young or
old (the first year have been able to say
so,) and they are all beginning to moult, and
many of them laying as though not moult>
ing. Eggs are cheap now, and the hens will
be ready for fall laying when the weather is
cold aud eggs scarce. This may, or may not
be, the result of feeding salt largely TO them,
but am compelled to believe this largely to
be so, as are some other peculiarities. have
noticed one feature, which may not be in
favor of salt-the hens have seemed to be
more persisseutly inclined to sit, it being
very difficult to break of the iuclnatiop;
they sit much closer than usual. All seem
voraciously fond of green food of any kind,
and have eaten large quantity of clover,
grass, young food and other similar food.
My observation leads mo to tho conclusion
that salt is a needed condimont for all poul>
try, aud in all parts is beneficial to them
Pigeons are excessively fond OF salt in any
form. aud why should not our poultry be also7
Such being the true status, it behooves US to
consider their needs and attend to them.
