The total amount now in use is estimated
at 453, 600 miles The whole length of fences
of all kinds in the United States is estimated
at G, 200, 600 miles Washburn & Moen are
now manufacturing about 80 miles of barbed
wire daily, and there are 40 other manufacto-
res.
There is little prospect that either of the
bills before the legislature will be passed, al
though it seems not unreasonable that parties
building barbed-wire fence against adjoining
owners, without their consent, should take the
risk of it instead of the other party. If the
fence is properly built, in any case, the risk
appears to be small. Barbed wire is such a
cheap and effective barrier against cattle that
no state has enacted or will enact laws of a
prohibtory nature against it, although some
have passed laws defining what shall consti-
tute legal fence of barbed wire.
The laws of Iowa, $780, enact that "a
barbed-wire fence may consist of three barb
ed wires, or four wires, two of which shall be
barbed such fence in either case to have not
less than 3G barbs of two points each on each
wire to the rod, the wires to be firmly fasten-
ed to posts not more than two rods apart,
with two stays between the posts, or to posts
not more than one rod apart without such
stays, the top wire to be not more than "a nor
less than As inches in height, and the bottom
wire not more than 20 nor less than l6 inches
from the ground"
The legal bArbed.wire fence of Wisconsin,
by a law enacted the present year, is better
than that of Iowa, and, we should say, reas.
onably safe. BY the Wisconsin law, 'al
fences consisting of at least five barbed wires
with at least SO barbs to each rod, firmly fas.
tened to posts well set, not more than 1G feel
apart, with one good stay between, the tor
wire not less than As inches high at the place
of attachment, and the bottom wire not more
than seven inches from the ground, and the
space between the bottom and second wire
not more than seven inches, the space between
the second and third wire not more than eigh
inches, the space between the third and fourtl
wire not more than ~ inches, and the space
between the fourth and top wire not mort
than lG inches, the aforementioned space
to be measured at the place of attachment
shall be deemed legal and suflicien
fence"

The well known inasmmsble status OF the
European balance of power has placed the
alarmists on the qui viv for indications of a
general war, and there is a disposition TO at
taci. to certain occurrences more weight than
there Is good reason for. 1t is true that
Russia is watching with jealousy and aPpre-
hension the encroschments of Austria, back
ed by Germany, in Turkey. and il is pretty
certain tia, the alliance is bent upon, at
some time and in some way controlling
froats on both the Baltic and the Eyesn
Sea-. 1t is true, slso, that France will net
regard herself IN state Of permanent equili-
brium until she RECEIVERS Alsace and Lorraine.
Nor is il TO be supposed that Italy rests easy.
1t may be that war is not far of, but j, will
require something more substantial than
Skobeloff u,,erances, the diplomatic inter
changes between Russia and Germany, and
the Slavic instruction, TO inspire the belief
that i. is now at hand.

to be blsstei, and hopes of carrying it With
