Astronomers and those generally inter

some interesting developments from the
mammoth refracting telescope recently
mounted in the Lick observatory in Cali

ter into observations made with this tel
escope which combined are expected to
make some remarkable revelations as to
the heavenly bodies, or at least some Of

ment and the dryness Of the atmosphere
through which the objects are viewed.
Telescopes during the present century
have been remarkably developed, and the
most important single instance Of this
development Is the object glass Of the
Lick refractor. Up to the year 1916 there
was no glass in America larger than
inches In diameter, while - and IA
inches were the sizes of the largest
glasses abroad. The dimensions have
been growing till 30 inches has been at

want the Land.

New York, April San organization
of veteran soldiers and sailors, which
terms itself the veteran association OF
the regular army and navy of the United
States, has recently been aeitating the
matter of securing bounty lands and
means for improving the same from the
United States government. The organ
,zation held a meeting to-day, delegates
from vsrious Grand Army posts being
present, and adopted q petition to o
gress. In the petition it is urged that
thousands of veterans would like to take
and cultivate bounty land, but are M
able to do 80 unless financially assisted
by the government. The petitioners urge
that congress paas an act emitting all
honorably discharged soldiers and sail
ors to the assistance needed to enable the
veterans and their families TO reach, oe-
Gupy o d cultivate bounty land. And ii
the event of tie passage OF such a bill.
the government will he asked to locate
the lands, lay out highways, builG
schools and furnish each settler with {
small house, team, agricultural imLle-
ments, seed, etc. In return the settlers
would repay the loan to the government
within ten years, with interest at tire,
per cent,and woul pledge themselves t.
serve in the militia of their severa,
states. A letter to President CLEVELAND
was also drawn up and adopted. 1t is oil
similar tenor, and urges the %desirabIlit,
of having the bounty lands occupied b,
native Am ericans instead OF by foreign
pauper immigrants.

Hasten the PROTESTS.

Scarcely was the INK dry or the copy of
the Objectionable Mills tariff bill sub
mitted to congress before q ringing pro-
test was received by that body from
glass blowers against the reduction Of
duty upon imported glass as proposed by
the bill. The memorial was ordered
printed on the record.
This illustrates the feelings of those en-
gagged in business affected by the proposed
tariff changes. When the laborers in the
iron, steel, glass, cotton, wool and chemi-
cal industries take in the situation and
thoroughly understand what President
Cleveland and his free trade cohorts pro-
pose to do, we venture to; predict that
their protest will be heard like the voice
of thunder.
Workingmen should initiate the action
of the glass blowers. Let congress know
that the labor of this country refuses to
work on a level with the degenerate
masses of the Old World. There is nc
need for the sacrifice. Labor organiza.
tions, trades unions, the employees in any
industry affected by the assault IN the
! tariff should draw up protests, sign them
and forward them to the representatives
in congress from their respective dis
| tricts.
Protests signed by thousands Of intelli
| gent workingmen from the state of New
| York, all voters, would cause tariff tink
erers to open their eyes. Should tn,
workingrnen tell congress they strenu
ously object to the passage of the Mill
bill, Mr.. Carlisle and his associates would
| flee from the wrath to come.-Cleyelant
