Down in Brown county the new
board Of county commissioners had
quite a circus over the question Of
what papers should be the Official
papers Of the county. Major Bar.
rett closes his opening remarks on
the question in this fashion
The last Republican scheme wa,
to name the Warner Sun and the
Frederick and Columbia papers.
While all these Republican schemes
were proposed there sat three Demo.
Gratis, a majority of the board, and
listened to the Republican schemers
and did not have Democratic man.
hood enough in them to make a
proposition. One of them rose at
last and objected to the ignoring of
the Democratic papers, but still did
not lave Democratic sand enough
in him, after all this exhibition Of
Republican gall, to make a propo-
sition. At last the board concluded
to adjourn. and leave tile county
printing business until the next
meeting. When will the day come
that Democrat elected to Office will
have principle and sand enough to
see that the rights of the Democratic
press shall be respected and cared
for. We are afraid, never.
We think commissioners should
as general rule. everything being
equal, stay by the old and established
papers, those which are calculated
to advance the interests of the given
county and Dakota generally. And
the major certainly has good cause
to complain. in this instance Those
three Democrats should have placed
the Republican on the list without
Il moments hesitation. Richland's
board is mostly Democratic and The
TIMES heads the list here,-which
of course is right.

full in extreme cases when cautiously

such circumstances, you would hate pat

A SOLVENT FOR RUsT.-It is often
very difficult, and sometimes i'm
possible, to remove rust from articles
made of iron. Those which are most
thickly coated are most easily
cleaned by being immersed in solu-
ton, nearly saturated, of chloride of
tin. The length of time they re-
main in this bath is determined by
the thickness of the coating of rust
Generally twelve or twenty-four
hours is long enough.

AT Melbourne, the capital of Vic
toria, is now being celebrated the
centennial of tho foundation of New
South Wales, the oldest of the PROV
inces of Australia. This province
wasa penal settlement until 1889.
and it was not until 1851 that Victor
ia was set off from it as asseparate
state. The continent of Aus
ralia is nearly as large as the whole
of the United Estates, and is inclosed
bycoast mountain ranges within
which is an,interior plain of 1,500,-
600 square miles. The country
has vast coast line of 5000 miles,
with few harbors. OF the three on
the south, the large bay of Port
Philip, with the Yarra river flowing
into the head it, affords a situation
for Melbourne and its dozen or more
substantial suburbs, aggrcgating a
population of about or over 300,-
600. The chief city site is three
miles inland from the mouth Var
ra, on hills parted Ivy valley, and
the suburbs, of which fifteen rank as
Independent municipalities, end for
distance of ten miles along the
shores of the bay. Melbourne is
about as old as Chicago, but is not
now half as large. 1t is beautifully
situated, has five large cathedrals,
a university, public library and art
gallery. The climate is fine, snow
being unknown, and there are but
few days of extreme heat. Th~
interior of Australia is an immenss
treeless, waterless, uninhabitablc
almost impossible waste-an up
heaved sea bottom, without soil, her
bage or forest, or streams Of any i'm.

on his qualifications for an appoint-

pronounces him physically sound,
and ifhe is able to pass Il satisfact-

This examination takes place in
June, and as the older cadets are all
absent from the academy on Aleave,'
the successful candidate, or "plebs, +"
as they are termed, feel their self

they can again.

to be at ease, and certainly not sue

Toned wooden frigate, which always
lies alongside the dock, and does
duty during the school sessions as a
gunnery ship.

experience of sailor life, and here,
among other things, they first ac-

to see these lads on their first night
struggling with their hammocks..
The hammock used in the navy,
you bear in mind, are very unlike
those in which people swing under
the trees in the country. The naval
hammocks are made of heavy can
vass, and are slung from the beams
of the ship. They are usually hung
quite high from the deck, so that
is not easy for Il beginner to climb
into one with any degree of grace
even if he manages to get in at all.
Usually, the novice struggles in from
one side and goes head over heels

A GERMAN chemist of Nuremburg
reports great success in using glyc-
crime together with glue. Generally,
after the drying of the glue, the ar
ticle to which it is applied is liable
to break, tear or spring off but if a
quantity ofglycerine equal to quar-
ter of the glue be mixed with it that
defect will entirely disappear. He
also made use Of this glue for linen,
leather, for making globe frames and
smoothing parchment and chalk
paper. The glycerine has also some
properties in common with India
rubber, for it will blot out pencil
marks from paper so as to leave no
mark whatever.
