The acting commissioner Of internal reve.
nue. has issued circular modifying the cir.
cular Of April Is, so that any manufacturer
Of matches who has already established, or
may hereafter establish, warehouse or ware
houses for the storage of matches, under Sec
tion ] of the act approved March 3, 1883, at
any Of the places named in said circular, or
who has consigned, or may hereafter consign,
matches by the car load, as provided in said
circular, may, upon application to the col
lector of tho district where the warehouse or
car is located, transfer any or all of said
matches to any other established warehouse
or car by the car load, as provided by the
aforesaid circular, said manufacturer first Civ
ing bond, with two or more sureties, to be ap-
proved by the collector, in penal sum equal
to the amount of the tax to which the matches
removed are liable.
The circular also says: "On the thirtieth
day of June, 1888, collectors of districts in
which such warehouses have been established,
or to whom matches have been consigned by
the car load upon transportation bond, will
make, or cause to be made, an examination of
the boxes or cases received into warehouse
or remaining in car consigned as aforesaid,
and If he finds the packages unbrolSen and the
contents thereof intact, and all matches in the
warehouse or car that have been stored
therein, save such as may have been removed
under the provisions of these regulations, he
shall furnish certificate TO that effect to the
collector of the district from which the
matches were shipped, who will, If the same
be satisfactory, cancel the bonds, and the col
lector to whom consignment was last made
shall furnish the collector from whose district
the matches were last removed with a certif-
cate to the same effect, and he will, II the
same be satisfactory, cancel the bonds"

Mahoneism and Virginia Politics.
IN Ibs Fg0or

SIR: Will you please give republican Of
twenty years political experience in Virginia
leave to express his opinion on the late politi-
cal contest in this state?
Inasmuch as truth is mighty and will pre-
vail, so is Mahoneism right, and must come
out overwhelmingly triumphant. Mohone is
with tho national republican party, the party
protecting the best interests of the mechanic
and laborer in this country against the frauds
of the pauper labor Of the mechanic and
laborer of England. Every species Of indus
try in Virginia is now awakening to this is
sue, and in all state and national affairs Vir-
ginia will sustain Malone. In eleven coun-
ties in which am we'll acquainted party lines
were not drawn at all in the late county cleo
tions, some of the best people in each county
being on each side, regardless Of any past po-
litical status.
A writer in Petersburg paper stated lately
that protection does not protect the cotton
industry Of that section of Virginia, whereas
IL tho writer only considered for q moment
what he was writing about he might learn
that the English manufacturer of cotton goods
could have the cotton in its raw state shipped
from Petersburg to the English mills manu-
factured there, and the cotton goods shipped
back to Petersburg and defy competition, the
relative wages in England being at least 100
per cent. less than in Petersburg to-day.
These considerations should provo paramount
to all others, particularly with mechanics
and laborers of Virginia, who cannot easily
forget that Mahoneism gave them free cleo
tion and fair count, wiped out tho capitation
tax rs O qualification to vote, opened the
common schools to all, and virtually gave po-
litical freedom to the whites as well as to the
blacks Of Virginia.

Dakota wheat Lands.

It is a noticeable fact that about six in
every ten Of tho entries Of public lands this
year have been made in the territory of Da-
kota. Reports from that part of the country
indicate that within another year very
nearly all Of the agricultural lands east
Of the Missouri river will have been
taken up by actual settlers. The reasons
for this general tendency toward the
Dakota country are not generally understood
In spite of climatic disadvantages which
mako some parts Of tho territory disagreeable
as places of residence, the territory is ire
sistibly attractive to those who want the best
and most reliable fields for grain growing.
The soil is rich loan many feet in depth,
lying upon bed Of hard clay, which
is almost waterproof During the winter the
weather is a constant variation from frost to
thaw, so that by spring the soil is filed with
a moisture so abundant that wheat will grow
and flourish upon it independent of rainfall.
Such a thing as awheat failure has mover been
known in that part of tho country, though
frequently since settlement began the summers
have been excessively hot and dry. The
yield moreover is always large, and most of
the farmers after few seasons have SO far
prospered that they have been able to hold
their grain for high market. These things
have served to draw the bulk Of immigration
that way in ratio that is increasing so fast
that within very few months only the low
grounds and barren spots, which are few, will
remain unsettled. Then will come the
cutting up Of those vast farms which few
years ago astonished the world by their ex-
tent and their extraordinary productiveness
These farms served their purpose in adver-
tising the territory while yet 1t was young
Their owners will scarce be able to resist the
opportunities that must shortly be offered
them to sell at prices which will yield them
fabulous profits. The next report of the gen.
eral land Office will show that more than two
thirds Of all the sales to actual settlers on the
public domain this spring and summer have
been in the wheat lauds Of Dakota
