It Is given out that Mr.. Joe Camp

county commissioners will petition
for toll road from Chewelah across

Of our mining country the plan
should receive the appreciation Of
every man In the county.

THIS machine Is for the purpose OF
cut,ing rocks and shaping them ss they
lie in their natural beds, and its re-
mArkable utility has been s1tisfa torily
demonstrated. Briefly described, Il con-
sists Of what looks like a coarse circular
saw driven by steam, which cuts upward
and backward through all kinds Of stone
with ease and rApidity. The teeth Of
the saw can be removed and replaced at
pleasure, and the entire machine occu-
pies but 4 very small space.
That il Is a labor and money-aaying
invention will be readily understood
when it is stated that it AvQ ds the waste
eau OF by the process Of Blasting and
requires only one-foJrth the foros usu-
ally employed in quarry ng. The cutter
can be set at any required angle, and Il
the 3 one is to be finished before its re-
moval files are attached 10 each side Of
the saW-plate slightly wider than the
cutter, thus removing the saw tooth
m rIs. II is claimed that slate can be
quarried by this machine and prepared
for the market at from one-third TO one
fifth the prt sent cost, beides saving a
vast amount o! material which is wasted
by the blasting process.
II, as is claimed, the inventor has dis.
covered a means OF applying power to
the outer edge Of his saw instead Of
from the center he has accomplished
what inventora and mechanics have for
years b en- striving after.

A Sand-Lot Community.

In the northeastern part of the city,
along the shores of the Missouri there Is
a strange settlement of people, earning a
precarious living IN a way which is halt
honest and half piratical. They are
known as the ''sand. lotters."
The huts which compose the settlement
are h%slf-burled In the drifting sand, and
are msrvels of acknowledgements OF
pine boards stuck no right in the
ground, and rooted with tarred paper.
The inside Is sometimes battened to keep
out the cold, but at best the protection
is not adequate against the rain or heavy
SHOWS. In these miserable one-room
novels, live whole families-men, women
and children, huddled together in loath-
some confusion. 1t is almost u lie
that such scenes to
be Witnessed in Oh az
exist among these 'sand-lotters." Some
of the children ara half naked, wholly
untutored, and more like young cannibAl
than civilized representatives of Young
America.
The "sand. lotters" exc out an existence
by fishing, and hunting and (perhaps,
stealing. The drift wood which floats
down the Missouri furnishes them fuel,
being tished toward the shore by means
of long poles and carefully dried by weeks
exposure to the sun.
This community Is one which will re'
pay q visit. Perhaps 1t might afford
field for missionary labor.

HENRY WARD BEEoHER

HIS POLITICAL LECTURE AT LOUISVILLE, KY.
LOUISVILLE, March 80. Henry Ward
Beecher lectured here to a large audience to-
night. Among other things he will say in the
Coutier.J ournal tomorrow: Let me state OK
plicitly my views of the past and present rela
tions OF the colored people. First, the state
of slavery in the south before the war
will all It's softening was evil and only evil
both in it's effects upon the blacks and upon
the whites alike, and it was on the whole
exceedingly bad. A terrible price was paid
for the destruction of the slave system but it
was worth to posterity ahundred times what ii
cost. Second, the putting Of the vote into
hands of an ignorant race was an astounding
event in political history. 1t came, not from
q belief of their fitness for suffrage, but from
o conviction that it was necessary for their
defense. Mr.. Beecher then after referring to
the general good conduct of the blacks during
the war, and after their freedom had been Sc
cured them, extolled their thirst for knowledge,
and believed their future would be ausp cious.
He complimented the south on the patient
spirit it had shown in the face of such Q
radical change in their political relationship
to the blacks. He did not think the whites
and blacks should mix blood: but il
was va .d their i tight light o bnd liberty eny ,h t.
a new era and a readjustment o.
of all national questions had been reached, hi
was for the welfare of the undivided nation.
and he said, 81 belong in detail to the party
which shall serve the interests of the whole
land I'm not a slave; either party is my
servant, I'm not its slave. The administra-
ton with that strong and Just mai
| Cleveland at its head has ny
hearty support, and my full confidence no,
because it is democratic, but because it il
national, patriotic, and adapted to the ext
gencies of the hour. Should it fail in its ma
tional duty 1 shall still seek the honor anC
welfare of this great nation but by another
road
