WASHINGTON, October 30th.-A leading
Republican, discussing the West letter to.
night, said; IF it had been published two
weeks after, instead of two weeks before
the election, little attention wogld have
been paid to it. Whether he fell into a
trap or not. it is evident, BY his own ad
missions, that he privately and eandidly
said that the interests of the mother coun-
try would be promoted by Clevelaud's s elec-
ton. THIS statement was calculated tc in
fuence the Irish vote against the Demo-
cratic ticket and something had to De done.
Minister WeS was naturally, and perhaps
made 70 suffer for his indiscrs-

Cleveland does not detract from the force of

After recommending the adoption OF

the letter continues as follows: "This

Alaska.

Governor Swineford, in his report,
states that the coast line OF Alaska,
Is, All miles, is nearly twice the COM
bined Atlantic ana Pacific coast
lines of the United States. The
market value of the Alaska fisheries
for last year is estimated at $3,OOO,0Oo.
A thousand salmon, averaging ten
pounds each, have been taken IN
Stika Bay in a single haul. The seal
fisheries yield to the government
$317 500 annually, or enough TO pay
per cent OH the amount paid Russia
for the country. A single island is
said to be practically u mountain OF
ore, and to contain mineral wealth
enough to pay off the whole OF our
national debt.
BY a treaty of March 30, 1867, rati-
fled by the senate June Goth of the
same year, Russia ceded to the Uni
ted States what is now the Territory
of Alaska. The price paid was ST.

Our Population in | 1870.

The census of 1890, preparations for
which are already being made, prom
ises to show in the United States a
population of more than 10000, 900.
The population in 1880, according to
the census of that year, was 30,
7s3 persons, of whom 43, $40 were
native and 6,879,043 foreign born.
The immigration to this country
since the lust census in 1880, up to
1890, will be, estimating from the
number already arrived ,lwhatwill ar

be 5,737, 252. Add this total to the
increasein the natiye-born population
at the rate which prevailed from 1870
to 1880, and it will be found. that the
probable increase in population DUR

due allowances for births and deaths,

Tho Causes of Poor Hair.

The first and great reason is that
women do not keep their heads clean.
Oftener they are too busy with house
keeping and children to give the hair the
weekly shampooing and nightly brushing
it needs. Still oftener they are too negH-
gent or do not know that on strict clean
Hness of the scalp depends their chances
Of having good hair at 85. Homework
should be done with a muslin cap or towel
folded to cover the hair to the roots.
House dust, which Is mainly dead animal
matter thrown off by clothing and beds,
is deadly to lungs and hair. Housemaid's
consumption is generally due to breathing
the dust and fue of il-kept chambers,
and the layer which collects at the roots
Of the hair kills it and causes the most
Of the falling out of which 1natrons COM
plain before 40.
When women comprehend the baleful
influence of dust on the health, hair and
complexion, they will Danish carpets, up
holstering and unwashing draperies, at
once and forever, as the great receptacles
and absorbents Of dust. When curtains
and carpets or large mats are used the air
constantly receives floating dust at each
movement; not much, it is true, IN care
fully kept houses, but quite enough as it
gathers on the scalp, week after week, to
form with its natural oil and sweat thin
malignant crust in which the root of the
hair slowly decays and drops. As the
most of women wash their heads not
oftener than once in six weeks, the effect
is best left indefinite. Scalp rritations
are not unknown, causing months and
years of trouble. But oftener the skin
Of the head, clogged and loaded with dead
scales Of matter, loses its functions and
the hair drops out.-Shirley Dare.

Rats On Board Ship,

owe can always TELL" said O West
India captain, speaking Of the plague OF
rats In port now, when we have q few
or many of the pests on board. The rats
do not, as one would suppose, remain on
the ship, but they get off at various ports,
and, after remaining awhile, ship on some
other vessel for another voyage. The
water rats, or wharf rats, are great trav-
elers, and make frequent voyages around
the world. There are here now rats from
almost every part Of the globe. Why, ]
saw four colossal Jamaica rats, with their
white bellies, skipping about in the
moonlight theeother night, and yesterday
I killed two Indian male rats on my yes
sci.
Gratis are great climbers when they
find 1t necessary to do 30. Upon one Of
my voyages not long ago we had a long
spell of warm weather, and there was no
water in the hold which the small army
of rats on board could get at. One night
we put some water up at the cross trees
and waited for the result. Well, the rats
just swarmed up the ratings and went
for that water. We killed as many OF
them as we could as they came down,
and some Of them jumped overheard and
were drowned. But we could not kill
them all, and few made the entire
voyage with us.-Philadelphia Record.

Postal Savings Bank system.

One Of the features of the government
Of Great Britain is the postal savings
bank system. It is very popular and Is
largely patronized by the public. It's USE
fitness is beyond all question. United
States Consul Walling, OF Liverpool, las
been investigating this subject and has
given some very interesting facts about
its workings In a report to the secretary
of state. The beginning Of the govern
ment postal savings banks was In 1851
under bill prepared and presented by
Mr.. Gladstone. 1t was entitled can act
affording additional facilities for deposit
ing small savings at interest with the
security of the government for the due
repayment thereof" On the day Of the
opening of the first banks under this act
Abs deposits were received. One year
afterward the number had increased SO
greatly that there were 1885 offices open
for the accommodation of the public. In
1885 the depositors had increased In mum.
Der to 8, 73f, All, and the amount of money
on deposit was ESQ. 874, 1888. This In
American money would be $3.50, 900, 900.
Deposits of one shilling or any number Of
shillings are received up to $3.50 or $50.
The interest paid Is 81 per cent. o year
on every full pound. Should the sum
on deposit reach G200 the interest there
on will cease until the amount has been
reduced. The government has made pro-
vision for the investment Of larger sums
in its securities. The banks will receive
deposits from parents or other relatives
on behalf Of minor children. Married
women can also make deposits which are
beyond the control Of the husbands.
Another feature Of the British system
Is that the government guarantees the
repayment Of all moneys on deposit with
interest, and also any life assurances or
annuities granted under the act creating
these banks. The results of the measure
of Mr.. Gladstone have been such as TO
recommend IL to the good win Of the
people of Great Britain. That they do
appreciate 1t is shown by their liberal
patronage. The cost of maintaining IL Is
very little, being about five-eight6s Of !
per cent. The guarantee Of the govern
ment makes the system absolutely safe.
It Is in every respect well regulated
financial institution. Great Britain Is not
the only nation which has these postal
savings banks. They are q feature Of
the American and Australian British
colonies. They have been engrafted
upon the political system Of France, Ger
many, Austria, Italy, Belgium, Holland
and Japan. Detroit Free Press.

A Paris letter on French agriculture
says: The average yield of wheat
per acre in Francois II bushels-the
bushel Of wheat varies in weight from
60 to 50 pounds. The annual wheat
crop in France in 305, 600, 900 bushels;
she requires for actual necessities $780,
100000 bushels, of which 40, 900, 900 are
for seeding. This year her harvest
has only returned pa 900, 900 bushels,
or So millions less than the total posi-
lively required. The best year France
saw for wheat was 1874. The total
yield was 100000, 900 bushels, or TO-
900 900 in excess of her total wants.
The wish of her agricultural experts
is the production of 4S0, 900 of
bushels annually. After comfortably
supplying French necessities,lt would
leave some 10000, 900 bushels to sup
ply the permanent yearly wants of
England.

Pithly Put.

Kind treatment is an equivalent of
food.
The greatest enemy Of agriculture
is Ignorance.
The mule is, hardy aud handy, if
not handsome.
If you have your boys profit by
your mistakes, don't repeat them.
Some farming is like an old jacket
frayed at the edges and very thin
elsewhere.
Growing a boy on the farm is o
mighty good foundation preparation
of him for an honorable business.
There is this difference between the
poor and the good farmer: One COM
plains Of the bad seasons, the other
rejoices in the good seasons.
Two horses of one kind will do as
much work as four horses Of another
kind, and it ougAt not to be hard to
determine which is the more profit
able.
When man comes half mile to
borrow hoe or a fork, you may de-
pend on his coming some day to
borrow money, but never coming
to pay it back.
The farmer candidate may not give
you as much taffy as the city man
before election, but he is more apt to
consider your interests after he is
elected.
Perhaps it can't be remedied, but it 10
nevertheless, a pity that the creature
flattered by the nod of a politician
casts vote that counts as much as
the ballot cast by true man.
