POSTAL TELEGRAPH.
Congress Considering the Question
Especial to the Cincinnati Commercially

Especial to the Cincinnati Commercial
WASHINGTON, Jan. lS.-The an
nouncement Of negotiations for the
consolidation of the two principal
telegraph companies in the country
caused STIR at the Capitol which
was followed by the preparation OF
half a dozen bills looking to the estab-
lishment of postal telegraph lines, or
other means of competition by the
Government, TO secure uniformly
cheap telegraph communication 70 all
parts of the Union.
The House Committee ON Postofices
has taken up the subject, and have ap-
pointed special subcommittee, con-
sisting of Money, Singleton and Stone,
with general instructions to consider
and report as soon as practicable. 1t
is understood that their inquiry will
cover the question whether any legisla-
ton is necessary to protect the interests
of the public, and whether 1t would be
expedlent to establish post telegraph
system like that of the British Govern
ment, which has been successfully
operated for the last twelve years.
Democratic Northwest. [volume] (Napoleon, Ohio) 1869-1894, 1881-01-27

both by seed and root They likewise
increase and multiply very rapidly,
and in some instances amount almost
TO a plague. Some years ago the
cookie became such q nuisance in
Pennsylvania that the State Legisls-
ture offered a reward for machine
that would remove the seed from
wheat. A flannel roller was the result
OF this offer, if we remember rightly.
A. the last session Of the Illinois Legis.
lature granger from Ford county
we believe, introduced a bill in the
interest of farmers for the extirpation
of cookie which will be known in his
tory as the 'kuckle-bur' bill. Its
phraseology entities it to be considered
a curiosity of literature, while the
penalties we're Drsconian in their
severity. The bill did not pass, which
perhaps is to be regretted, as the cookie
is very serious nuisance to both
farmer and miller. However, the
cookie is thoroughly depraved, and
perhaps Legislation against it might
only rouse Its ire and expand Its pow
ers of propagation to their greatest.

The Cookie,
From the American Miller

The cookie is the aristocrat among
the seeds that the miller has to contend
with. 1t seems to grow in any part OF
the country where It takes fancy to
the scenery and climate; to stay as long
as it wants to, and 60 when it gets
ready. If it is properto speak of the
wheat belt for it shifts and changes
about from one locality to another as
if endowed with Intelligence. The
cookie likewise has peculiar. shape,
different from other seeds of the field,
and when viewed through a micro
scope, looks like vegetable porcupine,
clad with spurs and spikes, These
spikes enable the cookie to be taken
out by means Of cork rollers, as the
cookie will stick to them while the
wheat will pass through Whether
this mode Of removing cookie has
proved successful In practice we are
unable to say; it is certainly unique
enough to deserve success. And here
in the cookie shows it's arstocratic in
stincts, in that many machines have
been devised for removing it from the
wheat while an ordinary separating
machine is deemed adequate to remove
a score of other different seeds that
grow IN she same field with it.
The cookie has very long appella-
ton for so small an object, the correct
name being Xanthians Strumaripm. 1t
is a commoner, however, in one re-
spect, as it will grow in nearly all
parts Of the country, if it feels inclined
to. The stalks growto the height of
from one to four feet, and have many
At the ground they are
an inch thick. The pods
contain but two seeds, and are sure to
their kind. The plants are
very tenacious Of life and propagate

Some Very Exact Statistics.

A Detroiter has been for the last two
years collecting and arranging statistics
of an ode nature, and if the book is
ever published readers will find moth
ing dry about it. He goes right tc
business On page one oy estimating
that the number of lickings received
by the average boy up to his four
teenth year is l25, This inucldes the
spanking process during infancy
Out of every 1907 900 people in this
country 10000 get up cross in the
morning, but only hundred or so re-
main in that condition very long after
breakfast. ....
Out of $4,000 men only 800 will put
up money on a oet The rest will
craw6sh around and finally back water
on their assertions.
Only ten women out of every 500
who start out on journey by railroad
consult railroad map or have the
least idea of ,he direction they take.
Four hundred and ninety eight worry
about. their baggage; 497 are certain
they took the wrong train; 494 wish
they had never started.
The risk of being bitten by dog is
greatly overestimated. Out of every
1000 big and little dogs only two care
to get up row with the human race,
and those two are ready and willing to
die.
The number of men who can put in
a more pleasant evening down town
than at their own freside is on the de-
crease. and the number of wives who
are taking little extra pains to make
home more pleasant than concert
saloon is on the increase.
Out of every 1000 men who get
mad and swear they will see a lawyer
about it only fifteen carry out their
intentions.
Out of every 1000 who ride on
street-cars only twelve will move along
to offer another woman chance to sit
down; 99s of them argue that it is a
mans s duty to stand up, even if there
is plenty of room, and the other two
are suprelnelv Indifferent.
Only one woman in 5000 pays the
first price asked for bonnet, and only
one milliner in 100000 expects her
to.
The time occupied by the average
man in buying a full suit of clothes is
just one-fourth the tirno occupied by
the average woman in buying single
pair of stockings.-Detroit Free Press.

they make a mistake. For instance, DIR.

it take, less quantity of Wistar's Bal

H0nOred and Blessed.

When a board of eminent physicians
and chemists announced the discovery
that by combining some well-known
valuable remedies the most wonderful
medicine was produced, which would
cure such wide range of diseases that
most all other remedies could be dis
pensed with, many were skeptical; but
proof of it's merits by actual trial has
dispelled all doubt, and to-day the dis
coverers of that great medicine, Hop
Ditters, are honored and blessed by all
as benefactors.

FAIR PLAY OUT WEST.
detroit Free Press. I


They give a man chance out West
In Deadwood, Custer, or any of those
new Western towns, the spirit OF fair
play crops to the surface even in judi
clal proceedings. In March last,
Michigan man, who keeps an eating
house at Gunnison, was over particular
about taking a counterfeit half-dollar,
and in the row which resulted he was
considerably battered. He therefore
called upon Justice of the Peace, and
stating his case, asked for a warrant.
81 guess 1 wouldn't make fuss over
it," said the official.
"But he meant to kill me"
eyes, presume so, but he'll leave
town and that will end it.
"But he's dangerous man"
eyes, they say 50; but no one is
afraid Of him."
"Judge, do you know what he said
about you when l told him I'd have
him arrested:"
"No."
"Well, he said you were blamed
grasshopper eater"
eyes, but he didn't mean it.
'And he called you reptile.
"Well, he was mad, suppose.
Eyes, and he was mad when he said
you didn't know enough to write your
own name, and therefore couldn't issue
a warrant"
"Did he say that"
"He did"
Then I'll issue on him like ten
ton avalanche on a yallar mule. The
man who sneezes at my larnin' must
have contempt for the Judiciary"
The warrant was issued, the party
arrested and tried, and the verdict of
the Court was:
"Gunnison, the verdict of this Court
is, that you are guilty, and the SEN
tence is fine of $2j cash. This Court
can't get over the fact that you vilified
its mental caliber 1t is also aware of
the fact that you haven't red to pay
your fine with. Now, then, if you'll
meet this Court back Of this building
on the level, it will either get away
with you in six and half minutes or
remit the fine. | will prove to the citi-
2ens here that in electing me to the
Judiciary they cast their votes for
man who can spit on his hands in six
different languages and get away with
a hog.pe full of roughs without having
an ear scratched. Prisoner at the bar,
have you anything to say"
The prisoner had. He said he'd
rather go to Jail, and to Jail he went.
