The people of the state of Minnesota
are very much dissatisfied with the
work of the senate of two years ago
and were axious to have new COM
mfttees appointed for this year. The
senator's realized the fact and them
selves voted for new committees. In
the face of all of this Lieutenant Gov
ernor Gilman reappoints all old COM
mittees with but few unimportant ex-
ceptions. The committee on railroads
is particularly Objectionable. On that
committee the railroad men had and,
we think, still have majority. Mr..
Gilman claims to be on the side Of the
farmer, but just how he can make this
claim and his action in reappointing
Objectionable committees seem con-
sistent it is difficult for us to under
stand.

The productive capacity Of the steel
rail mills of the United States is about
100000 tons per annum. About 800,
900 tons went into new lines last year,
and the amount used as renewals, new
second track, and siding is estimated
at $4,000 tons, or SAP per cent of the
total amount of rails in track. This
rate is equivalent to the renewal OF
the lines once in 1874 years. At the
end of 1888, little more than half the
track of the United States was iron.
The consumption of rails for main
tenance ran down from 1890 per cent
in 1872, when steel rails were first
used, to 5'92 per cent in 1881, and re-
coded again to 5'42 per cent in 1888
The production of steel rails increased
from SO, 391 tons in 1872.

Thirty-flve years ago, remarks the
Commercial Advertiser, the name OF
ST. Psul, Nina, was unknown to map
makers, and neighboring Minneapolis
could not boast lpf a single building.
To-day each of these cities has popu-
lation little shoE of 100000 souls and
each is the ceslter of a robust growth
IN trade Manufactures, and inteilec-
Sual activity. There were building 8
erected in the twin cities during the
present year at cost of nearly $751;
OO0, 1000, and there would seem happily
to be no interruption of any sort in
their career ofsolid prosperity. Truly
in no other country could 80 amazing
and proud sight be seen as st. Paul
and Minneapolis now present. Among
other nations progress in city making
is the growth of centuries. With us
first class metropolis may some
times almost magically arise in the
course of a single generation.
Scientific American: OF all the
people who clean their teeth regularly
it is certain that very large proper
ticn only do so once day, and that
generally at the time of their morning
additions. A much smaller num-
Der also do at retiring, but the num-
Der of those makea practice of regl-
larly brushing their teeth after eating
the most important time of all is in
deed very small. 1t is while eating
that all little cavaties or interstices
between the teeth become the reposi-
tories of fragments OF food, or traces
of some acids in the food are left on
the teeth, to cause incipient decay,
and hasten it where it has already
commenced. Tt is of course desirable
to brush the. teeth on rising in the
morning and before retiring at night,
but it is of infinite more Importance
that they should be thoroughly
cleansed after eating.

Christmas eve three well-dressed Mexl-
cans were seen lettering about the passen-
gen depot al this place. Christmas morn
ing passers-by found "A hole under cot
tonwood tree just west of the depot and
something like fifty yards distance, where
an old keg had been examined during the
night aud emptied of its contents, which
is supposed to be of very great value,
something like $50, 900 to $4,000 in hard
cash. In 1916, when Santa Anna retreated
from this country, he buried three kegs
Of money, gold and silver, some
where near the site of our passenger
depot, MS he had his camps at Soldier
springs, about three-quarters of a mile
IRON the city. 1t is almost certainty
that these MeXicans have the plat of the
grounds and have found one of the kegs
and are secretly hunting the other two.
1t Is supposed that the three vessels con-
tanned from 100000 to S75 900, and If the
MeXlcans have stumbled onto the fact and
secured the plat of the grounds and found
all the money, they are to be envied by
Weatherford people, especially as some
OF them have been so long and
SO close to this vast amount of money and
let foreigners come in and get the long
buried jewels. Nothing can be ascer-
tanned from the MeXicans as to their mis-
sion to this city and it Us safe to say that
the Mexican gentlemen are and will be
secretly watched until they leave Wealth
erford

Methodist church tonight was great
treat to Weatherford people, us it was
considered the best musical entertainment

by the audience, as quite

and treasury departments OF the Texas
rond will be kept separate from all other
interests. II is understood that the re-
ceivers will not ask for authority TO issue
certificates for the purpose OF raising
funds, for some months, but will rely
solely upon the revenue from the traffic OF
the line for money, which they think viii
be ample, since they are only obliged to
pay interest upon 8l67 600 OF bonds held by
the state of Texas and operating expenses.
These bonds were issued for a like sum
OF money borrowed from the school fund
of Texas and are a prior lien upon the
property. All Gains for labor and sup
plies furnished within six months preced-
ing the receivership are to be liquidated
at the face value as rapidly as
possible, and they, with the
interest on the Texas bonds referred
to, are all the receiver viii have to pro-
vide for. Aside from current operating
expenses, later on, about S4,0O0,000 will
have to be expended in the betterment OF
structures aud raising the grade OF the
New Orleans division, but it has not been
determined how this money can be Sc
cured. The general Office of the receiver
