Future of Our County.

! L HdI tHS luiuiS pioSpSihS vi
Hooking County must depend
upon some industry other than
what we now possess, is evident
10 those who have given the
question thought or who have
watched the workings of our pres
ent industries. Our coal fields
and furnaces have been our
bride. but let us consider to Yhat
Iextent they have benefited rs.
During the past ten years we
have derived some benefit from
them, but not to that eXta& that
it would be reasonable to expect,
and after a careful survey of the
situation, we are forced TO the
belief that we have striven after
wealth that has been regularly
spirited away from us, while we
have neglected riatters that must
have added to the material
wealth of the county.
Look for instance at the wealth
and wonderfully increased popu-
lation of Columbus in the last
fen wears. The suhurbs of that
city have Been reaching ont into
the green fields with a rapidly
that can herald the coming Of
nothing less than a great me:
'tropolis.
Now what section of the State
has contributed so largely TO the
prosperity of the Capital City as
The Hooking Valley? While we
have been subjected to all the
evils of strikes, while our af-
fairs have suffered, the business
concerns of that city have quiet
ly gathered the cream. We have
the evidence in the stately busi-
ness blocks and handsome resi-
dences her people are building.
Do we make a showing Of such
prosperity? This question we
leave to the consideration of our
readers. While we do not think
it would be polite to abandon
interest in our mines, there is
something else needed 20 help US
ont.
What then is worthy more
thought than the wool question:
We have the finest grazing
county in the world. This can
not be said of it for farming pur-
poses.
We now produce about .250,-
uOO pounds of wool. 1t Is need
less to comment on how even
this amount benefits the pei pie
throughout the county. II brings
money to men who own the land
and live with us, who buy their
goods of us. and who are part
of US; while on the other hand.
The men who operate our mines |
live in distant cities, buy their |
goods away from US. invest their
earnings in other districts. and
have it so arranged that a very
small part of the money paid in
10 the hands OF their )aboIerS
comes to our mIchants. We have
he acreage 10 support, and there
IS no reason why the flocks of
Hooking county should not pro-
luce 100000 pounds of wool
per year. We have it from the
oest posted growers in the cennty
hat a profit can be realized at
Is cts. per pound.
We hope this matter will be
by our people. Grub
,ut your briar patches and put
sheep on them. The production
If 100000 pounds of wool in
docking county means wealth
md solid comfort to the people,
Mhething they have not enjoyed
With all their coal fields and iron
furnaces.

title, entered on the lands Of appellees,
and proceeded to build their railroads
thereon. While the bnildingof the same
was being pushed forward, the railroad
companies instituted proceedings of con-
demnation TO secure titles 10 the rlght
of way over the lands in accordance
with the provision of their charter, and
they prayed that commissioners be dp-
pointed to assess the 1amages appeliees
had sustained. The chancellor appointed
the commissioners, and, on the applica-
ton of appellees, instructed them to
include in the assessment of the dam
ages "the value of the iron, road bed
and bridges at their value IN the market
generally. but not as a railroad or con-
shutting anv part OF it.p. This appeal
was taken from this decretal order.
Held-that the correct practice under
the acts on the subject Up. 800, acts 1882
is to appoint the commissioners when
applied for, at once, and for them to per-
form the duties deyolyed on them. The
law does not contemplate the delay of
chancery suit with all its incidents as
the means Of initiating the contest be-
tween the parties as TO the due compen-
sation to the owner.
The direction to the commissioners to
include in their estimate of damages the
value of the railroad upon the land is
erroneous. On this subject we adopt
the views held by the courts of Alabama,
Michigan, Pennsylvania, Minnesota and
Wisconsin. 20 Ala, s227, etc. The
railroad company was trespasser IN
constructing its road upon land over
which it had not acquired the right of
way, but it still had the right TO acquire
the right of way unaffected by the
liability incurred by its trespass. The
trespass committed is not involved in
the due compensation. The continuing
right of the company to secure the right
of way, in accordance with the charter,
and the action Of its entry on the land
and annexing chattels to the soil dis
tinguished the case from that of tres
passer who afflxes chattels to the free
hold and the rule of the common law
established when railroads were unknown
is not applicable Answerability by the
company for its trespass in the appro-
pirate action, and due compensation in
the proceedings for condemnation of the
right of way, constitute the full measure
of the right of the land owner.

A Man with a Big Appetite.

There are good many men who
enjoy the table Il hote NJ the hotels and
get the worth of their money! said a
chatty hotel clerk TO n New York faiI
and Express reporter Yesterday. a
peculiar fact about the greatest eaters
is, that they are not so large in size.
One of these phenomena struck the
hotel the other day. He lives in Albany
The guests at the same table complained
that the amount he slowed away made
them sick He sat down at the table at
o'clock and left at o'clock. Tell YOU
all the menu? Why he duplicated the
regular menu Eve or six times and then
left the table grumbling. To give an
idea of his mammoth emporium capaci-
ty, he dispatched the siXty-seven dishes
on the menu five times, as stated. He
especially dotted on the entrees. such as
quail braise with green peas. filet Of
mutton la jardiniere, curry of chicken
with rice, Goldfish fried English style.
salmi of duck with olives. and apples
fried with pork. One dish tickled his
palate. if he had any. and caused him
to order il seven times in succession:
that was cardinal punch. He reveled
and luxuriated in the virtues of cardi-
nal punch. Waiter. he would softly
call. here, give me another what do
call EN-? . yes. punch; let it be cardi-
nal
The seven cardinal punches aroused
the ire of the Other guests who happened
to be at the same table They each
came around quietly. and asked to be
placed Mt another table. 4 like Your
hotel, they would say. but | swear l
can't sit at 4 table where one man eats
seven cardinal punches There is a
limit to the capacity of some stomachs,
but not to his Well. we moved them.
and left the Jumbo eater alone at a
table. He liked it immensely. After
one of his wholesome meals he asked
the waiter for toothpick. The waiter
brought him az box.
.Why did you bring box? l only
want one, he said The waiter replied:
1 thought you wanted enough to go
along with your appetite. sir. "
