How the Price Runs Up and Down the
Scale From January TO June.

How the Price Runs Up and Down the
Scale From January TO June.
There is no article of commerce that
varies more widely in its market price than
the whalebone, said dealer recently. "In
January ii may sell for 50 pound and in
the following June for rs pound. Twen.
ty-ive years ago the price was seventy-fye
cents pound. It varies in price according
to the catch, and this in turn depends upon
the luck of the sailors. II they find the
whaling grounds closed by ice, meet with
shipwreok, for any reason fail 10 catch
whales, the price will go up. This makes
It a very speculative business and we can
never tell what our stock ia worth until we
hear of the catch"
What part does whalebone chiefly CONT
from p
The main supply is brought from the
North Pacific whalers and comes in in No.
vember. A smaller quantity comes from
the South Sea and arrives about June. Now
and then n small supply comes from Davis
Straits and Hudson's Bay. Whales are
caught there at all seasons Of the year. and
the Homecoming to New York is apt to dis
turb the price. Many years ago it was the
custom OF whaling captains when out of
stores TO stop at some Pacific port and ex-
change some of their whalebone for the
necessary supplies aud in this way smaller
lots would come in and trouble the market.
Ships are now so thoroughly supplied tina,
there is no longer any necessity of continu.
ing this practice. The supply comes from
New Bedford and San Francisco which are
the great whaling ports of this country. A
great amount used TO come from Nantucket,
but the shallowness of its harbor and the
greater convenience of New Bedford drove
its trade away. On board ship the siaps of
whalebone, as they are termed in mercan-
tile phrase, are done up in bundles OF
about 200 pounds each aud are sent to mar.
ket in that shape. In cutting up whalebone
here is a loss of about twenty per cent. on
the raw material The hair lis worth 10
cents pound for mixing with horsehair
for upholstering purposes, and it is some-
times used in the manufacture of brushes. y

The decision Of the Supreme Court last
Thursday that the, law relating to the
taxation Of railroads is unconstitutional
and void, will be apt to create quite an
excitement throughout the State. Under
the law, the State of New Jersey was
able TO derive revenue of several hun
dred thousand dollars per annum. The
decision Of the court will throw upon the
Legislature the responsibility Of making
new laws regulating taxation, and pro-
viding for public revenues. The opinions
of the court which are unanimous in this
case, are based upon the proposition that
all taxation must be equitable. The pro-
vision which separates railroads and ca
nails into a special group, for all purposes
Of taxation, is contrary to the constitu-
ton. Its operations will be serious en-
barrassment to the State.

The desperation of the Mormon leaders
aud their dangerous personal character
as individuals has received another illus
tration in the dastardly attack upon
United States District Attorney Dickson,
at Salt Lake City, in consequence of his
successful efforts to effect the capture of
George O. Cannon. A son of the prisoner
and another relative, with third person
unknown, were the actual perpetrators of
the assault, and one of them, at least, was
heavily armed but behind them was the
sentiment of the Mormon people, which
would evidently have been gratified by
Dickson's assassination. The existence
of such feeling is ample justification for
any legislation, however severe, that will
tend to bring these rebels, for such they
really are, into due subsection to the laws
of the United States.

The Saturday half holiday movement
seems to be gaining ground in New York.
The Alexander Smith & Sons Carpet Co.,
of Yonkers, without solicitation and to
the complete surprise of its many en-
ployes, has just decided to close its entire
establishment every Saturday afternoon
without decreasing the pay of its EN-
ployes, while the number of wholesale
and retail establishments in New York
City in which whole or part of the af-
ternoon is given to employees, is large and
increasing. 1t is gratifying illustration
OF the strength of public opinion, and the
good disposition of many large employers
of labor that this movement has been SO
materially advanced during compare
lively short time.

We have been shocked at bearing the
vulgar talk INDUCED in by some girls
along the streets here. And by girls,
too, whose conduct cannot be excused on
the grounds that they are children and
know no better than to repeat what they
hear. We are glad to be able to say that
this is not general we know only few
who indulge in it, but these few are a
disgrace to the village. 1t is lament
able fact that boys just entering their
teens, and older ones, too use SO much
language among themselves that teens
with vulgarity, but to hear girls of four
teen or sixteen years using such language
in the streets is surely enough to disgust
any pure-minded person.

An intelligent young mechanic stood up
in q temperance meeting aud said: 81

case, nearly 800. They furnish enjoy
ment for my winter evenings and have
enabled me, by Gods blessing, to gain
much useful knowledge, such as pots and
pipes could not have given me.
The whole country seems to be aroused
on the temperance question, and alive to
the necessity OF immediate steps being
taken to stay the progress of this mighty
evil, The time is at hand when men can
no longer stand in neutral position on
this great problem. eye cannot serve
God and mammon." Neither can man
say, 81 am not opposed to Prohibition,
but choose to leave the question for others
to decide" 1t is for every man and wo-
man, too, to decide individually, and the
responsibility can not be thrown upon
others. -Christian Home.
