260, 900, and he proposes that half-sectlon of land should be given to each family, which would take up about 26,OO0 square miles; the balance of about 5000 square miles he would have sold, the pro- ceeds converted into United States bonds, and the interest, amounting annually to $4,- 480, 900, devoted to the support of the h. dians. The amount realized from the bonds held in trust for the Indians would exceed by about $660, 900 the entire now ap- propriated for the payment of their annui- ties and for their subsistence and civiliza- tion. As the Indians advance in civilization the principal derived from the sale of their lands would be returned to them. One ob jection to General Sheridan's scheme, as he outlines it, is that it seems to make no pro- vision for the care and protection of the In dians while undergoing the civilizing pro cess.
 The London Law Journal remarks that in Vandenberg vs. Harris Judge Bayley had to decide difficult question in an action against theatrical manager by 8 visitor who had paid for the pit at Drury Lane, but who did not find seat. It has heec -hel,11 as everyone knows, that payment for ad- mission does not prevent the proprietor ejeeting the payer, but it has been assumed that the payer might bring an action for breach of contract, although we believe it has never been so held. Judge Bayley as- sumed that there was an enforceable con tract, and the question was: What was that contracts He holds that the purchase of pit ticket only guarantees admission, and not seat. The contract must be governed by the practice, and the practice of people buy ing tickets in the pit to stand only is very common. On the other hand, practice has sprung up of exhibiting board standing room only," which practice does not seem to have been observed in this instance. The board is intended for purposes of ostenta tion only, but if it were universal to exhibit it when the house is full, it's absence would govern the contract. It is not universal and the custom is for the pit to be content with standing room when the seats are all filed

 Within few days thirteen inmates of the Albany penitentiary have died of typhus fe- vor.

The prison of fcers say that the disease did not originate in the penitentiary, whose sanitary condition is said to be good, but was brought to it by g short-term prisoner sent up from the peni- tentiary of Kings county. There is loud in- quiry in New York concerning the reason for the concealment of this state of affairs
 A device has been brought forward for protecting water pipes against freezing, the arrangement being based upon the fact that water in motion will remain liquid at lower temperature than water at rest. One end of copper rod, placed outside of the building, is secured to a bracket, and the other end is attached to one arm of weighted elbow lever; to the other arm of the lever is secured a rod, which passes into the building and op- crates valve in the water pipe By means of turn buckles the length of the copper rod can be adjusted so that before the tempera- ture reaches the point at which there would be danger of the water in the pipes freezing, the valve will be opened to allow flow of water; beyond this point the valve opening will increase and the flow become more rapid as the cold becomes more intense, and as the temperature rises the valve is closed. This plan sets up current in the pipes, which re- places the water as it grows cold by the warmer water from the main. Whether the valve be opened or closed, the service pipes are always in working order.

More Republican Fr.ud.

The Republican frauds become black
er and blacker as the examination OF
the ballot-boxes progresses. These
hideous outrages upon the suffrage OF
the people Of Cincinnati entitIe the per-
petrators to serve the State In short
hair and stripes. Our local columns
this morning detail the discIosures
made yesterday In Precincts @ aud A
OF the Eleventh Ward. They are
astounding, and show degree Of bold
ness and audacity In election frauds
without sparallel.
The condition Of the ballots found In
the boxes of these precincts shows con-
clusively that fraud and crime were
rampant in the Republican wards on
election day. The two boxes opened
yesterday were each filled with fraudu-
lent tickets-tickets that could not have
been placed In the boxes except by the
methods of the knave. There were
tickets, scores of them, found on the
file that had never had crease
In them. An unfolded ticket can
not be voted, and, therefore, these
tickets han never been in the boxes.
But each and every one of them had
been carefully counted. Every fraudu-
lent ticket found was Republican.
Those Of them that had been placed in
the box had been voted In twos and
threes. The outside ticket in each case
was properly stamped, but the tickets
folded on the inside were, of course,
unstamped and illegal. The law says
explicitly that no unstamped ticket
shall be counted, hut in the two boxes
examined yesterday there were one
hundred and fifty unstamped tickets
found, and all had been counted and
included in the returns. Why are all
these fraudulent tickets Republican?
Because these precincts were absolutely
controlled on election day by Republi-
cans, and these frauds were committed
wantonly by order of the Republican
ringsters, who are now posing us refor-
mers. The penitentiary is the only
proper place for the men who instigated
and committed these outrages, and the
outlook isbright for their getting there.
1t does not follow because these out
RACES were perpetrated in German
wards that the Germans are responsible
for them. We do not believe they had
anything to do with them. We do
not have far to go to find the reason
for selecting these wards for the villain
GUS work. It was to cover up the tracks
ofthe real perpetrators.
Letthese villains beware. The peni-
tentiary is not far of. Cincinnati En-

ORIGIN OF NATURAL GAS.
Petroleum and Kindred Products
Perhaps Formed by Volcanic
Action.

New theories as to the origin of
petroleum and natural gas are con-
stantly arising, says the Philadelphia
Press, but no theorist can ignore the
almost invariable presence OF salt water
in oil and gas wells.
M. Berthelot actually manufactured
crude petroleum, and in the process
noted the facts which have been Observ-
ed in connection with the development
of petroleum In nature. These were
principally that salt water in the form
ofsuperheated steam. when In contact
with carbonized iron, would siecompose
into its elements, or rather the oxygen
contained In it, pursuing the laws of
chemical affinity, would unite with the
iron, while the carbon Of whitehot
iron passed Off and united with the
hydrogen of the water, forming oxide
'of iron on one hand and 'hydrocarbon
gas on the other.
Monsieur Berthelot's, experiments
constitute the origin of natural gas and
petroleum, theory allowing for the
difference in his Paris laboratory and
the great laboratory of nature. Vol
canic acti IN is attributed to steam
generated from the percolation of water
through the seams and fissures of the
earth's crust to the heated interior.
Now, as the interior OF the earth is be-
lieved to contain much carbon, either
in state of purity or in alloy with
metals, such as iron, salt water per-
colating through the crust from the
ocean beds and coming in contact with
the very hot mass must, Of course, be-
come superheated at am, and the in
terchange Of elements between it and
the carbonized metals becomes easy.
When the pressure Of the vapor is
sufficiently great, IL must find an
avenue of escape. In the case of oil
and gas deposits this is presumed to be
effected through small assures. tenn
porarily forced open, the c0oling in the
tupper rocks relieving the pressure,
That some more aqueous vapor should
discharge itself along with the car
buretted hydrogen Is to be beexpected, and
the condensation ofthis would account
for the salt water deposits. Recogniz-
ing similarity to volcanic action In
the production of gas and oil, some
rational estimates on their distribution
and the probable durability of the sup
ply may be formed.

s Editorship.
louisville Courler--Journal.

!sarne people estimate the ability of a
'eriodical and the talent of.its editor by
.ls quality of its original matter. 1t is
comparatively an easy task for frothy
writer to string out q column of words
upon any and all subjects. His ideas
may flow in one weak, washy, everlast-
ing flood, and the command of his
language may enable him to string
them together like punches of onions,
and yet his paper may be but rneagre
ard poor concern. Indeed the mere
writing part of editinga paper is but q
small portion of the work. The care,
the time employed in selecting, is far
more important, and the fact of good
editor is better shown by his selection
than anything else; and that we know
is half the battle. But we have said,
an editor ought to be estimated, his
labor understood and appreciated by
the general conduct Of his paper--its
tone, its uniform, consistent course,
aims, manliness, dignity, and its pro-
fpriety.
