UP Goes Salt.

1t was recently announced that certifi-
cate of incorporation had been filed by the
North American Salt Company and that
the concern will differ from the ordinary
trust, inasmuch as its share capital cannot
be secretly Increased at the whim of the
managers, and it will be subject to some
legal supervision.
But in general scope and aims we are
afraid it is no better than the other
''trusts." Its capitalization of fifteen mil
lion dollars is enormous, and the eight per
cent guaranteed on its preferred stock is
excessive. The prospectus contains the
usual trust" prate about profits to accrue
from cooperative management, reduced
working force and the rest of it, and not
from high prices. But one may read be-
tween the lines a very different story
Referring to the one hundred and thirty
works and properties owned or controlled
by the concern, it is noted in one portion
of the prospectus that 1.-THE profits have
been meagre at most and frequently non
existent In another paragraph of that
document the revenue of the company is
estimated at twenty cents per barrel and
an annual output of ten million barrels, or
enough to pay six per cent on four million
dollars of bonds, eight per cent on four
million dollars of preferred stock and twen
ty per cent on the seven million dollars of
common stock.
1t is an insult to the intelligence of the
people to ask them to believe that proper
ties which have been yielding meagre
profits, or none at ALL can by mere econ
omy of management be made to pay the
exorbitant amount of twenty per cent per
annum ON this frightfully inflated capital
ization-and this, as is intimated after
closing down many of the works and car
rying them at dead loss The public
knows Just what to think of that yarn in
view of the fact that the English Salt
Union, under the auspices of which this
new concern has been organized, made
similar statements and within six months
advanced the price of salt about two hun
drcd per cent.-New York Herald.

An Incident of the Great Flood,

Father Troutwein, of Cambria City, just
this side of Johnstown, relates the follow
ing incident: He was standing on the
bridge on that awful Saturday succeeding
the food and witnessed the attempt of
workmen to remove Miss Clark from the
wreck They had removed the debris
from her head and body as far as exposed,
but still she could not be liberated. The
flames We're approaching and Father
Troutwein administered the sacrament of
the church to the poor unfortunate, who
believed that she must certainly perish.
In desperation one man dived beneath the
water and endeavOred to free her, when
he found her one heel held in wise like
grip by a human hand. The muscles
were set in death and it seemed that the
unfortunate girl could not be freed from
their awful clasp. An ak was procured
and the hand severed from the arm, when
Miss Clark was taken out. Both her legs
were broken, but she was taken to the
hospital and is getting alcng nicely. The
men then went to work and finally sue
ceedcd IN getting out the body to which
the hand belonged. Strange to relate, it
was that of Miss Clark's grandfather, and
it was his hand that had almost dragged
her to an awful death

A Question Of Ethics.

A little breeze has been raised among
alleged violation of the code of ethics as
laid down by the County Medical Society.
1t has always been held by the regular"
members Of the profession as an evidence
of quackery for any physician to advertise
his business for the purpose of attracting
custom. Those who have qualified them
selves for special work, or have manifested
peculiar aptitude in any special line of sur
gerry or medicine, and who have adopted
advertising as legitimate means of max
ing themselves known to the public have
not only been very severely censurcd and,
at times, harshly dealt with, but there
have been studied and persistent efforts to
excite distrust and prejudice in the public
mind among some of the most experienced
and successful practitioners in the two cit
les.
short time ago local contemporary
issued souvenir edition." containing
among other things, sketches of prominent
citizens. In the list are biographies of
quite number of regular. physicians in
many cases illustrated with accompanying
pictures. The circulation of this advertis-
ing sheet was what occasioned the breeze.
The matter was paid for, and the question
now is whether that particular section of
the code which makes it 'derogatory to
the dignity of the profession to resort to
public advertisements" has not been so fla
grantly violated as to call for severe disci-
pline at the hands of the Medical Society,"
The situation is embarrassing, to say the
least, and the result will be looked for with
no little interest Those physicians who re-
gard the code as a clamp upon Independent
action and who treat the anti advertising
rule as mere bugbear, have the laugh on
those regulars" who figure so conspicuous
ly inthe souvenir" The circumstance, it
is to be hoped, will teach the profession
that it is never undignfed for any person
to advertise an honest business in
proper way through the columns of
reputable newspaper Gazette
THE Flemon case was the sensation in
flttsDurg last week. It grew out OF an old
election riot in South Carolina The story
is that the whites, at a certain election
precinct in that State, attacked the blacks
and drove them from the polls, and killed
some of them; the blacks took refuge in
barn, the whites surrounded it, and the
blacks defended themselves and killed one
white man. Two blacks that were arrest
ed swore that Flemon did the shooting.
The officers pursued Flcmon, and found
him in Pittsburg and got a warrant from
Gov. Beaver for him. The colored men of
Pittsburg are determined that Flemon
shall not go back and employed counsel to
defend him. The case was heard by Judge
Ewing who remanded Flemon to the care
OF the Sheriff, and the case has been ap-
pealed to the Supreme Court. Gov. Beaver
has been asked to rescind his warrant

To Be Beheaded.

NASHVILLE. TENN, July CAN. East
Tennesseean is under sentence Of death in
the capital city Of far-away Corea, charged
with preaching the doctrine of Christian
ity. She Is Mrs Hattie Gibson Heron, wife
of the Rev. David Heron, recently of Jones
boro. DR.. Heron is a Northern PreSbyter-
ian missionary, and is well known in Knox
vile. He is an Englishman by birth, and
about three years ago he led Miss Hattie
Gibson, daughter of DR.. n. j. Gibson, OF
Jonesboro, to the altar. He had just been
ordered to Corea, and his young wife. her
self great friend of the mission cause,
Joined him and the two sailed from San
Francisco only few weeks after their
marriage.
Information has just been received here
of the sentence imposed upon Mrs. Heron.
She preached the gospel as well as her
husband, and was recently the means OF
converting a nobleman who is close to the
throne of Corea. He was true convert,
and was so inspired that he himself went
to preaching Christianity. The King was
greatly displeased, but instead of chopping
off the head Of the converted nobleman, he
had Mrs. Heron arrested and thrown into
prison. In the Corean estimation women
hold very low place and count for little in
the sight of the law. Though destitute of
political and social influence, they are new
ertheless held rigidly accountable for their
actions

Lincoln's Religious Standard.

The chapter on "Lincoln and the church
es," with which Messrs. Hay and Nicolay
are to continue their history of the martyr
ed President, brings to every ones mind
more forcibly than ever the depth and in
tensity, as well as the purity, of Lincoln's
character. lie was man whose acts
could bear all the scrutiny o. the most adj
vanced methods of historical research.
However much Lincoln's friends and as
socates may have suffered from such treat
ment at the hands of collaborating histor-
ians, Lincoln himself has come forth from
it not only unscathed but even with added
glory. Those who have followed closely
the career of the man and who have seen
him in all his moods are not surprised at
the historians formulation of the state
ment that he was 'man Of profound and
intense religious feeling" although he
never professed even a nominal adherence
to any creed or dogma.-N. Y. Press.

Escaping for His Life.

After John NJ. Clayton had been shot il
Arkansas because he was collecting evi
dence to show that he, and not Windy
Breckenridge, had been elected to Con
gress, Judge Cunningham charged the
grand jury that it was their duty to FIND
and indict the murderer. This fact wa,
paraded over the North to show that the
law-abiding people of Arkansas meant t.
protect the life of its citizens, even if they
were white Republican citizens. But now
the report comes by way of st. Louis that
Judge Cunningham has been compelled to
leave the State to save his life. This may
not be true, but the probabilities are that
it is, because it is entirely consistent with
the past history of Arkansas. Political as
sassination is the most influential political
agent, as well as the most popular, in Ark

Taking The Census.

The machinery to be employed in taking
the eleventh census Of the United States is
being fast put in order by Supt Porter.
The appointment of supervisors will not be
made until December, and the enumera-
tors not until just before the time the work
of enumeration and collection Of statistics
will begin. The pay of supervisors, as reg
ulated by law, is 1925 at the expiration of
work and 81 per 1000 people enumerated,
but no supervisor is to receive less than
$500 In thinly settled districts $1.40 will
be allowed per 1000 persons enumerated.
Each enumerator will receive two cents
per person enumerated, ten cents per farm
and twenty cents per productive industry,
but in the aggregate not less than SO nor
more than Sc per day. No enumerator
shall have over 4, 1000 names as estimated
from the census of 1880. The enumeration
must be completed during the month of
June. In cities it is expected that two
weeks will complete the enumeration of
population.
Senators Quay and Cameron have been
asked to submit list of ten names of per-
sons who would make efficient census su-
pervisors for Pennsylvania, and of course
they will also be consulted relative to the
5000 enumerators needed The duties of
the supervisors will be to supervise the sub
division and arrangement of th cir districts.
For the first time in the history of the cen
sus taken in the United States these super
yisors will be appointed by the President
will require confirmation by the Senate.
The object of this is to place these import
ant officers under more direct responsible
ity than was attained by the slipshod
methods of their selection under previous
censuses. The appointment of enumera
tors will be made upon the recommenda-
ton of the supervisor of the district, sub
ject to the approval of the superintendent.
1t is understood that these supervisors, hav-
ing been appointed not only on account of
ability and past experience, but with ref
erence to political considerations which
control such matters, will recommend for
enumerators snch persons as will be salts
