With all crops. and especially with
those that are TO be cultivated. IL is
quite an item to have the soil pre-

seed in a soil not thoroughly pre-
pared. II Is very important item to
commence the cultivation as soon az
possible after the crop has been
planted. From different causes IL may
not always be possible to begin the
cultivation ms soon as it should be
done, but preparing the soil in good

Text BOOKS and reachers.

AUGUSTA, September 9.-Superintenden
of Schools Luce is gradually preparing the
way for the introduction Of free text books
into the State, the law fixing the date at
which this must be done at August /, 1890
This winter he will obtain the lowest figures
for school books of the publishers, and issue
a circular to the school officers throughout
the State, in which necessary Information
will be given and two systems outlined by
which the change can be made. The books
in town must be uniform. but State uni
formity is not required or even deemed ex
pedient, as it would give the publisher
whose books were used an advantage In fix
ing his prices which he would not be slow to
improve.
By one system, well preserved books own
ed by pupil Will be appraised and turned
into the general stock Of the town. the owner
being paid for them. By the other the
scholar keeps and uses what books he has In
his possession, new ones being dealt out for
his use when required. During the inter-
walls between terms it Is expected that the
books will be packed away In the school
houses, where cases for their reception can
be built At the present time there are
from 25 to 80 per cent. Of the towns In
which the text books employed are not
uniform, so that extensive changes must be
made.

Witty Sunset Cox Awaiting tho Conn
Ing of the Grim Messenger.

NEW YORK, September 9.-Congressman
Samuel Sullivan Cox is dying at his
home, 13 East 18th street. Four days ago he
was confined to his bed by an attack Of what
he supposed to be malarial fever. This
rapidly developed into acute pneumonia,
which has defed the best medical skill.
DR.. z. T. Somers of Washington, who is
one of CONGRESSMAN Cox's physicians, was
seen at the house, 13 East 18th street. this
morning. DR.. Somers said that Mr.. Cox
might die at any moment. or might linger for
day or two
"There is no hope of recovery, or even of
temporary rally. About four weeks age
Mr.. Cox contracted severe form of typhoid
malaria, with pie uro-pneumonia complica
tions. He was in Washington at the time.'-
Around the bedside of the dying Congress
man are his four physicians, Drs. Wyncoop,
Scudder and Lockwood Of this city, and DR..
Somers OF Washington. His devoted wife
has scarcely left the bedside since the condi
tion of her husband became serious. Mr..
Cox has no children. He has brothers and
sisters living in GAINESVILLE, O.. who have
telegram has also been sent to his nephew,
w. V. Cox, clerk of the Smithsonian Insti-
tute in Washington.
During June and July Mr.. Cox delivered

the two Dakotas to Statehood. He returned
apparently in perfect health to his 18th
street home, an old fashioned, comfortable
quarter Of the city, the first week in August.
After taking weeks rest he left for WASH
ington, though urged by his wife not to un-
dertake the journey so soon after his return
from the West. Her forebodings were justi-
fled by the calling Of Dr.. Somers In Wash
ington, almost Immediately after Mr.. Cox's
arrival there, to attend the statesman.
A Chance for Life.
NEW YORK, September 9.-At 10 o'clock
tonight, Mr.. Cox's condition was apparently
unchanged and the doctors say that the next
II hours will decide whether he will recover
or not.
Later-At II o'clock tonight Mrs. Cox said
the patient had slight change for the bet
ter, but his condition was still precarious.
He was resting better than at any time since
the relapse.
At midnight the doctors had a consultation
and decided there was no immediate danger
for the next 36 hours.

cHIcKASAW TROUBLES.
unole Sam may be called on to Take
Hand.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, September ct was
learned last night that affairs In Tishomingo
are in critical condition. The trouble
grows out of a contest in the Chickasaw leg
islature, which met at that town last Non
day. In August, five members Of the legis-
lature were elected in Pamela, Pickens, Pom
totoc, and Tishomingo counties, respectively
Two tickets were voted in each county. One
represented the national, or Byrd, and the
other progress slve or Guy party. Byrd, the
leader of the former, is now governor Of the
Chickasaw nation. The Guy party elected
u of the 20 representatives, winning sub
stantial victory.
Upon the legislature deyolves the duty of
canvassing the returns and declaring who
are the members-elect The Byrd members
county. which elected five Guy men, four OF
whom are white. The ground of refusal is
that illegal white votes were cast In that
county. The Guy men claim that it is the
only county where white adopted citizens
were allowed to vote. aud that in the other
counties they were intimidated and driven
from the polls by the fIll-blooded Indians.
The Ill feeling Is augmented by the intro
duction of bill in the legislature which
proposes to disfranchise all the white adopt
ed citizens. Under existing statutes white
man who has married Chickasaw woman,
and hold office. The bill in question takes
away. all the privileges. 1t Is bitterly OPP
posed.
These. in brief, are the causes Of the pres
ent trouble. 1t is generally believed at Tish-
omingo that the United States government

Chicago Legislators on a Crusade
Against a smoky Atmosphere.
They Propose TO LeeIsIate sltunIn-
Gus Coal Out OF the City.
And all In Order to Secure the Great
Exposition OF 1902.

NEW YORK, September GA Chicago
special to the Tribune says:
Conscious that the cloud OF bituminous
smoke that overhangs Lake Michigan and
northern Illinois, like dark pail. will bar
Chicago from being selected by an inteili.
gent Congress as the proper location for the
world's fair, the city council at its next
meeting will consider a sweeping measure
that Is to legislate this smoky atmosphere
into beautiful ozone. This measure Is no
less than an ordinance that will compel all
locomotives, steamboats,, tugboats and arti-
fetal draft furnaces to abandon the use OF
bituminous coal from the great northern
Illinois coal fields. and resort exclusively to
Pennsylvania anthracite and coke. OF
course such a measure would utterly destroy
the Illinois soft-coal markets, and render al
most valueless the broad coal fields Of the
State and increase the fuel expenses Of Chi
cago railways, steamboats, and factories S.
100000 or S10,eO0,OO0. Besides 1t would
promptly be pronounced illegal by the su-
preme court. But, Notwithstanding this, IL
Is vsrtis1ggg ps.hg %Isy relIed upon as great sd
unanimlty Is already heralding the approach
Of a new era.
The Chicago Tribune publishes two or
three columns on the new scheme, and ad-
vocates its adoption as follows:
This Is no 1estlng matter. Chicago must choose
between the smoky nuisance and the exposition
III II prefers to wall0w In its nlth and will not add
pure atmosphere 70 the other claims IL has for
tne ialr then 1t might as well stop right with
It's subscriptions and solicitations and avoid the
shame OF humiliating refusal IL Ephraim IL
joined to his idols, Congress certainly will leave
him alone. II Mayor Cregier really wants to Sc
cure the exposition for Chicago he should stay at
home and enfO. CO the smoke ordinance, instead
Of travelling to New York to be interviewed By
reporters as TO what he thinks OF Chicag0's get
ting the fair. II he will stop the smoke nuisance
the existence of which will surely lose Chicago the
exposition, he will have done all that Can be ex-
pected of him.
