After Kansas Salt,

New YORK, Oct. 18.-A Palace car
party Of Brooklynites and foreign cap
italIsts, which on Monday started from
Jersey City for Kansas, was one Of the
direct results of the passage Of the Ne
Kinley bill. Prior to 1887 all table salt,
dairy salt and salt used for " fine pack
ing" was either the product of British
fields or the domestic article that had
undergone an expensive chemical pro
cess. The English article practically
ruled the market. More than this the
chemical SALT was not good for the
dairy where fine grade of butter was
desired. In October, 1887, Benjamin
Blanchard thought he could strike oil
in Reno county, Kansas. He selected
for the scene Of operations the southern
suburbs of Hutchinson, or as it is now
known South Hutchinson. He did not
strike petroleum, but at between 400
and 500 feet from the surface the drill
began to bring up Jumps of something
that looked like cloudy glass. It was
salt, and salt, it is said, of the purest
quality. On analysis experts pro-
nouneed it to be as good as the British
article. Further Investigation, it is
said, showed the mineral to be in a bed
800 feet thick. The deposit was practi-
cally pure salt, the only exception being
two or three strata of sandstone one
inch thick. 1t is alleged that every acre
of the deposit, which is miles in extent,
contains by estimation 100000 barrels
Of salt. BY its operation a duty of
eight cents per 100 pounds was imposed
on imported salt in bulk and u cents
per 100 pounds upon such salt in bag.
It is said that agents Of English capital
lists hurried to this country. The pre-
else nature of the negotiations which
followed Mr.. Blanchard refused to dis
close, but he said that two men who
represented British capital were to go
with him in the special car to Kansas.

OLYMPIA, Oct. Ex-Governor Ferry
in an interview to-day says relative to
voting on the capital question that it
would be best for the voter to cross out
the name of the town he does not want
to vote for. He does not think any
judge of election would be justified in
throwing ont ballot marked with a
cross opposite the town voted for. In
case ballot containing a constitutional
amendment or other question to be sub
mitted to vote of the people the
questions voted against shall be
scratched out. This certainly is one of
the "other questions" mentioned by
this paragraph and according to the
strict letter Of the law the names of two
of the candidates should be scratched
out. 1t is customary, however, to con
strue the law literally and where the
purpose and intent of the voters is clear,
the vote should be counted.
The governor says the increase in the
number Of legal voters will not be nearly
so great as many imagine. No man
coming to the state since Nov 4, 1889,
can vote at this election; therefore the
increase in the number of voters viii
consist of those who came during the
seven months and four days from April
1, 1889, to Nov. 4, last. The increase
in population in that period was small
compared with the increase since our
admission. Since then the rush has
been wonderful, and we are apt to over
look the fact that those newcomers are
not legal voters.

are doing their level best to make it APP
pear that Mr.. Huston is to be forced out.
Among Mr.. Huston's friends here, and /
presume at home, it has all along been
an open secret that he accepted the
Office of treasurer under protest, and
only to please his friends. And instead
of being pushed out it is more than
probable that the president will endeavor
to keep him in by offering him another
and better appointment before accepting
his resignation as treasurer.
OF all senseless and baseless canards
ever attempted by the unreliable demo-
cratic press, that sprung by the New
York World, charging that the census
returns were being destroyed in the in
terests of the republican party was the
weakest. II bore its contradiction upon
its face and democrats joined with re-
publicans in denouncing q paper that
would print such story, when few
minutes work On the part Of its Wash
ington correspondent would have shown
its utter falsity.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.-The scientific
expedition sent out last spring under the
joint auspices OF the National Geo
graphical Society and the United States
geographical survey, for the purpose of
exploring the region about Mount St.
Elias, Alaska, has returned. Mr.. Russell
who organized the expedition, and has
charge of the work, has furnished the
Associated Press picturesque sketch of
the work Of his party.
The actual base of operations, at the
head OF Yukatat bay, was reached June
10, and the study of the geology and
geography OF the region began at once.
They found an island near the head Of
the bay, which they named Grand View
island. From its summit which rises
boldly thousand feet above the water
magnificent view was obtained Of fine

The overshadowing interest developed
in the silver question is shown by the
number of brochures on that topic which
are now being scattered broadcast in the
country. Two of the latest lie on our
table. The first is by Gen A. J. Warner.
and in it he treats of "The Fall of
Prices: The Change is in the Measure
and not in the Goods" In this pam
phlet Gen. Warner develops number
OF the staple ideas that have graced the
columns of the HERALD during the past
ten years. 1t will be remembered that
this was the gentleman to whom Presi-
dent Cleveland directed his celebrated
Silver Letter just before his induction
into the presidency, and to which the
Democratic house paid no sort of atten-
ton. The second brochure embraces,
amongst other things, the open letter of
Mr.. Francis G.. Newlands to Secretary
WINDOW, together with all interview
and editorial comment thereon. That
the cause of silver is steadily gaining is
shown by the intelligent study which is
being 80 extensively directed towards
this topic.

IT IS impossible as yet to determine
whether the court house bonds were
carried at Saturdays election. 1t re-
quires two-thirds vote to do so, and
the people were so Indifferent in this
city as to the result that it will require
but a very small negative vote in the re-
mote parts of the county to defeat the
proposition. 1t is to be regretted that
the people of this city almost let the
election go by default. Why they did
so it is difficult to explain. The court
house will be one OF the finest, if not the
very finest county building in the state.
Indeed, we can recall none that will ap-
proach it in grace OF architecture and
beauty of design. 1t will be a monu-
mental credit to the city and county,
and will cost less than any structure OF
equal pretensions in the state. We
shall have for half a million dollars a
more creditable public building than
San Francisco will have when it's city
nall is finished (if that period should
ever arise, which seems doubtfuD for
ten millions. City pride, if there were
no more solid reason, ought to have made
our people cast very large vote for this
