1t is intimated that Col. VIM. Johnston,
of Charlotte, is man9uvering to espouse the
proposed Malone idea in North Carolina. He
has been in Washington for several days past,
and in company with eX-Speaker Charles Price,
another North Carolina politician, called upon
the President the other day, and according to
the correspondent of the Charlotte Observer,
they were accorded an interview with less
trouble than delegation of out-and-out n. &.
Republicans who had preceded Them Accor-
ding to this correspondent, COL Johnston and
his colleague represented that they were indie
pendents in politics and desired to see the
Democracy of North Carolina defeated in the
next election. AS such they desired to re-
ceive the support of the Administration in the
fight they proposed to make. After their re-
turn both gentlemen spoke encouragingly
of their visit. The idea prevails that Col.
Johnston will run as an anti-prohibition can
didate for Congress against Mr.. Dowd in the
next congressional election. He may not, it
is intimated, wait that long, but this fall run !

with loco, 269 sheep, we should. have an
unbroken group Of states with high
numbers from New York TO Missouri,
while Texas with New Mexico, and
California would remain locally con-
spicious for high numbers.
The wool clip of the United States as
reported By the enumerat0rs Is subject
to considerable modification before it is
deemed final by the census office.
In California, Texas and intermediate
regions there are two clips year. En-
umerators inquiring in lSS1 sometimes
secured but the spring clip instead OF
the years clip. 1t is estimated that
thorough sitting of the facts will add ten
to twelve million pounds to the report
through enumerators.
There are many sheep driven over
vast ranges of country and not reached
as on farms. These, known as ranch
sheep, have been the subject of special
investigation and areestimated at 5,O0O,-
900 adding possibly 25,0O0,OO0 pounds to
the wool product.
Then there Is the wool of lambs anu
sheep slaughtered whose wool does not
90 into the farm clip but becomes a COM
mercial article under the name OF pulled
wool which Is estimated at from 80
OCO,OO0 to $4,000, 900 pounds.
All these together swell the aggregate
10 above Do, coo, 900 pounds.
Last year we imported about l6l, O0O-
coo pounds or nearly double our ACREAGE
importation. This year it is likely to
prove much below the usual average.
This is mostly carpet wool. We cannot
afford to spend our time over such poor
sheep as produce this coarse cheap wool
but we can add value to it by manufact-
uring il and we make carpet machinery
for English carpet weavers.
The growth of our population and the
demand for wool and for mutton will be
likely to stimulate sheep raising. A
better system of buying will grow up as
the industry becomes more stable, and
local dealers develop moreskill in Judge
ment and leave lessto fall into the hands
oftemporary itinerant agents. One OF
the absurdities in some parts OF the
country is an arbitrary dockage for UNI
washed wool even if it is clean. Some
are said TO meet such rulings by stirring
up stream and driving the sheep
through below the muddied place max
ing the fleece heavier with the dirt de-
rived from the water in a nominal wash
ing. In the strong demand now grow
ing up such methods must be replaced
by others fairer TO all parties.

A $4,000 Prize.

Milford, (Del.) Ne1rs and Adrertiser, Dec. 24h.
The lottery lightning has struck Mil
ford, and so hard as to excit its citi-
Zens considerably. On Thursday of last
week ii was rumored that Milford man
had drawn the capital prize, 100000, in
the Louisiana State Lottery Company.
Our reporter tried to look the matter up,
but none of the two dozen persons in
Dictated by Madam Rumor had drawn
the prize. An express company sent
two advices, saying that prize had
been drawn in Milford Excitement
over the affair increased, and common
salutation ON Saturday was, "Have you
drawn the prize%' On Monday the holder
ofthe ticket deposited it for collection. He
is Mr.. A. ID. Alderman, a>respectable
and industrious farmer, living two miles
from town. Although the owner of the
farm where he resides, the $4,000 will
be most acceptable to Mr.. Alderman.
The one-fifth ticket that drawn one
fifth ofS1CO,C0 is No. I,s92. 1t is said
that this is the first lottery ticket ever
owned by Mr.. Alderman.
AS might be supposed, the drawing
of such an amount has stirred up the
people on the subject of lotteries, and
brought 10 llSnt soLhc unhnown iaSeS-
1t now appears that a considerable NUM-
Der of our citizens have been dealing IN
lotteries, but they all kept the TACT
secret. They include rich and poor, old
and young, and even church members
One of our aged citizens says that twice
he has come within one OF the lucky
numbers that drew prize of Sl0J,0OO.
Another Milford man drew $40.
There is something very fascinating
and seductive in the idea OF acquiring
sudden wealth by a chance that costs
little, and we apprehend that many
hundreds of dollars will be wasted on
! lotteries in this section, in view OF the
recent success of our citizen. Even
those whose reason tells them
otherwise, will invest a little because LII
doesn't cost much, and might.
