A curious discovery, made by siguOr schlR-
parell director Of the Royal Observatory at Milan,
seems TO start again that old and unanswerabla
question: "Are the planets inhabitedT This
Italian astronomer is one of the most assiduous
watchers Of tho planet Mars. 1t was he who in
1s77-7s hrst detected the many dusky bands which
trayeae and subdiYide the rudy portions OF tho
martial orb. Again, Ia le79-'eO when the position
OF the planet was favorable he Teidentihed these
strange liues; but during the last January aud
in moro Than twenty instances Implications II tho

is n thing remotely analogous on tue earth" The
Italian astronomer has styled them "cauHls," for
icy bear the appearance Of long sea-wayB dug
through the Martial continent, MS II mania for
short cuts had seized the habltants of the planet
aud everybody residing there had become an

PRESIDENT ARTHUR
And His Brave Words for the Mississippi
Valley.


Since the Presidents ringing, brave message u
Congress on the subject Of most vital importance
to the Mississippi. number Of us hardly know
where we stand. Arthur Is Stalwart, but II that
ia Stalwartism we prefer II 10 Sam Randall OF
Salisbury Democracy. The President talks 50
that every one interested in the Mississippi Valley
knows what he means. He talks business. He
thinks II Is high time for Uncle Sam to look after
Uncle Sans River, and he takes 1t upon himself
to say so. Instead of remaining neutral, or shirk-
ing or lodging the question, he takes an agrees
sive position against those who haye hitherto op
posed the Improvement and control OF the hissis-
sippi River.
HE Is NOT AFRAID
that improving and controlling river that drains
fifteen States and seven Territories Is yioauye oi
the Constitution, and he il not afraid of the ex-
millions for the valuable national work, But Tho
best of IL all is he strs up Congress to its duty. lie
wants the work done, and he wants IL done now.
For many years, and ut times in tho face ofa
storm of opposition and misrepresenlalion, We
have been advocating the policy Shat wouio ad-
vance the material Interests of the South.
WE ARE SICK OF SENTIMENT

continuous slander Of the most progressive Peo-
South who made their Sre@sshss @s ring about & our

can avoid II. II can now be seen how hurtful and
unjust such extreme pRrtisanism Is TO the section
Of country struggling TO build ilself How unjust
IL would be TO reior TO President Arthur as one OF
our enemies.
HE Is WORKING SIDE ny SIDE
with our Democratic Governor, He has left ouK
picayunish Legislature away behind. II would
not appropriate a dollar of the States money 20
protect the Valley, whilo the President says APP
proprlato whatever Is required-ten, twenty, Or
even thirty millions Of dollars, In this connec-
tion Il is well for the people OF the Valley who
want their material interests advanced TO cooper
ate with those willing and able to advance them.
IL II hard TO estimate how much the Presidents
bold, positive words
1RE WORTH TO THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY.

An Important Arrest.

-&s III #E
Sheriff Healy yesterday arrested a man
named Frank Minneo, or at least ne
registered by that an at the Overland,
for whose capture there is a standing
reward Of $500. Mr.. Healy has had the
description II time, and seeing the
man yesterday he soon satisfied himself
he was or the right track. y "a the
afternoon he took tho fellow in. 1t
seems that Minneo came co town with
Nose Solomon and vas about toreturn TO
the Marias ia Mr.. SIS wagon when ar
rested. Sheriff Healy jumped Ia the
wagon and had his ma disarmed ana
en- route to the jail before the latter nara-
ly realized the situation. He Is bad
character and has about all the crimes IN
the catalogue charged up to him. he IS
said to have BEEN a member OF the gang
of thieves that ran off the large band OF
horses last winter, when Jakey Wertz
was shot by one Of them. The arrest Is
an important one, and Sheriff Heaiy
deserves a great deal of credit for his
part in the premises.
