New Backbone sensation.
IN. o. Pica,une.I

:
If information in the northern
papers is correct, the next speech
of Gen. Van Wyck of Nebraska Ia
the United States Senate will pro-
duce something Of sensation. 1t
is said that the names of some
thirty witnesses have been placed
in his hands, and that the revela-
tons concerning the celebrated
Backbone land grant will bring
about demand for an investiga-
ton of the whole matter. The
report says that the land covered
by the grant is worth so an acre,
and that 800, 900 or 100000 acres
are involved 1t is alleged that
after the act was passed there we're
people in Washington who had
considerable quantities of Back
bone railroad bonds. 1t is alleged
that at the time of the merger into
the New Orleans Pacific, in order
to appease the holders of old Back
bone securities, contracts were en-
tered into by prominent politicians
by which it was agreed that upon
the passage of the bill transferring
the grant to the New Orleans Pa
cific, the old and almost worthless
securities would be received in
exchange for good bonds of the
new road, and that this naturally
made sentiment around the Capitol
in favor of the measure. It is
said that some of the contracts
were carried out, and that others
were ignored, and that several of
the disappointed holders of old
Backbone bonds are foremost in
offering information bearing on
the transaction.
1t is to be hoped that the whole
truth regarding this affair will
come out. We have in the past
published many statements ON both
sides of the question, including
some very ugly matter from the
Congressional reports and discus
sions. If the recent Republican
administration had remained in
power, the lands would all have
been conveyed to the claimant COR
poration but Secretary Lamar
stopped the issue of patents. Gen.
Van Wyck is one of the best Re-
publican Senators, q man who Is
incorruptible, and whose hostility
to every form of corporate rascality
is known to all persons conversant
with national legislation.

Leaving Colfax ON the afternoon of
Dec. 26th, the CHRONICLE man, after a
12-mile ride, enjoyed the hospitality Of
Mr.. j. 0 Grayson for the night. This
genial old gentleman was at that time
preparing to move ON Capt. Nash's place,
about a mile below Colfax, and has
since done SO.
Sunday noon found us at Ebenezer
church, three miles above Montgomery,
listening to Rev. r. A. Davis last sermon
for the conference year, which was deliv-
cred with eloquence and feeling and begat
a warm spirit among the brethren. As
the itinerant never knows the field of
his labor until it is allotted to hio, these
last sermons have become kind of fare
we'll; but, il conference is to be governed
by the cordial wishes of the goodly crowd
present, we feel assured that Mr.. Davis
will have to preach another farewell SER
mon to the same congregation next
January.
After a bountiful dinner Of holiday
good things at the house OF Bro. Matt.
Mccain, and discussion of matters re-
lsting to the finances of the circuit, we
we're persuaded to pass the night under
the roof OF this gentleman. The even
ing's experience convinced US that one
will have to travel long time before
finding more interesting family than is
congregated in this same household.
The next day was passed in Montgom-
cry and vicinity, with dinner at Major
McCain's and entertainment for the night
at Judge Ragan's. We had pleasant
time as matter of course, as do all who
have occasion to visit this hospitabls
community, and nothing but pressure Of
business would have forced us to leave
so soon.

A RUDE AWAKENING.

1t will not pay any man to raise
cotton who has to buy his corn and
meat. This fact has certainly been
made plain to the people of Grant
parish, nearly half of whom are at
this minute bankrupt from pursu-
ing the fieecy phantom of cotton.
Like an ignisfatuus it has led them
ON until at last they are mired in
an almost inextricable labyrinth of
debt. The awakening has been
rude, and the penalty of their de-
fusion weighs grievously upon
many. Will our people profit by
their experience ? We doubt it
seriously. For years they have
gambled on making a big crop of
cotton and selling it at a high
price, risking everything on this
single chance, and getting deeper
in debt every year. For years the
warning cry against this suicidal
policy has sounded In their hear
ing, and still they have gone head
long in their course. A few sober,
long-headed men may possibly
turn their backs upon the Will-o-
the-wisp, but the great majority
will continue to give it 'just one
more trial. until their sudden
plunge into the vortex of bank
ruptcy alarms the remnant into
seeking safety by diversified
farming.

I'm 1885, the value OF coca leaves rose
from three to ten francs a kilogramme,
and that of cocaine from $50 to 10
francs a gramme.
Although at the present date the
price varies from three to six francs a
gramme, the cultivation OF coca re-
mains very profitable and still offers a
certain golden rental The demand for
cocaine is SO great and steady that at
Lima Messrs. Meyer & Furstenberger have
established a large mandatory OF
cocaine in connection with the factory OF
alcaloids of Mr.. E Merk at Darmstadt,
who will try to import also into Europe
the different products OF coca.
In Java the planting OF coca was pro-
hibited, probably because they feared
its competition with opium, monopolized
by the Government"

THE BANANA TRADE.

The Bulletin" has an article in reply
to our comments on the banana oppO-
sition to the Oceanic steamship subsidy,
which is very fair in one respects but
misses the point OF the case in our judg-
ment. 1t is argued that because rapid
transportation by steamship has stimu-
lated production TO an undue extent,
therefore steamer freights should be re-
duced to ensure a profit to the shipper.
This is manifestly absurd. The service
performed by the steamship company is
the same whether the market price Of
bananas in San Francisco is high or
low, and it is for performing this service
that transportation rates are charged.
If the argument of the banana shippers
is worth anything it would ultimately
lead to the steamship company carrying
that fruit for nothing and paying bonus
TO the shipper to offset the probable de-
probation and waste upon the voyage.
This is pushing the argument to a fine
point no doubt, but it is the logical Sc
uuence OF the position assumed by our
contemporary, who will no doubt ad-
NIT the untenableness OF such a posi-
ton.
What is really wanted is an enter

pyising and intelligent agent for Ha
waiian frlit growers on the Coast, who
Will find a market outside Of San Fran
cisco. The whole trouble arises from
confning our fruit shipments to San
Francisco houses, when it is quite posi-
bic to create a steady demand in the in
terror and mining towns and cities, or ii
not, to arrange for shipping a carload or
two on the arrival Of every steamer for
points on the overland route where
bananas would be esteemed a luxury
and would find ready sale. This, how
ever, cannot be done offhand. 1t needs
organization and the selection OF single
and capable agent by our fruit producers.
This, on the other hand, has many draw
backs, but it has only been by organiza-
ton among fruit growers in California
that they have of late begun to receive
the profits on their crops. While they
competed with each other the middle
men, that is, the fruit dealers, gathered
in the profits while the producers bore
the burden and heat of the day, and
were s0laced with whatever the middle
men gave them. Our advice to banana
growers, therefore, is to organize and
reach out for other markets than San
Francisco The best fruit of the State
of California never reaches that market
1t is shipped East or to London. a sim
liar policy would render banana growing
nrOftable in the vicinity of Honolulu
even were it increased fourfold.
